PUBLIS
Mark Twain was only about half right when he
said that all you can do about the weather is to talk
about it. 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.
