Of course, no one can regulate old Sol’s ac tivities when he gets on a rampage in midsummer in a desert region. In the great humorist’s day there were shade trees, perhaps a few screened porches, but no air conditioning for business houses, homes, barracks, or even for trailer and tent houses. The modern uses of electricity were not known, but now the extremes of weather can be regulated no matter how low or high the mercury fluctuates. And those who haven’t these facilities can cool off in the Columbia or Umatilla or drainage canals, or out under the cooler canopy of heaven at night where a breeze may quiet the fervid brow. At any rate we can do a great deal besides talk about the hot spell, and even talk helps much to get the heat out of one’s system. As local citizens to our distressed visitor friends, we beg to say that our sun’s rays are not dealing any more unkindly with you than down on the coast or over the mountains eastward. And those who have a memory of a summer in Iowa, or Indiana, or down on Mark Twain’s Mississippi river bottoms, may feel cooler from a thought of those sweltering days and nights. Be assured, too, that a break comes here— maybe it will arrive before you read this—and then you can catch up a few winks. And, too, when early Fall comes, if ever there are perfect days, you will find them here in September, October and Novem ber. So spur up your courage and revive hope. After then there may be some snappy mornings and pleas ant snows. The steel may tingle, the water pipes may need an electric shock, the oil in the cats may not budge, and then after another short extreme spell, the soft Chinook will release King Winter’s hold. And after a year round, taking the good with the best and the bad with the worst, you will join with us and say this is the best climate on earth.
