S. Forest Service in Yreka re ported. Tey also stated that the storm was as big and as severe as any ever experienced here, but because of the moisture retained in the forest from last winter and the heavy rins which accompanied the storm, the damage was held to ahinimum by the 116 men who werff out on the fires. In the Ft. Jones area, two inches of rain fell in two hours, as measured by the for est service. A "snag" up Ditch creek was struclc by lightning, and the resulting fire was visible in Hornbrook, but was apparently extin guished shortly by the rain.

Potpourri's comments on Tuesday and Wednesday eve ning's cloud formations were particularly enjoyable to those who also watched in this area. Like Potpouri and her "Pappy," this writer and her Pappy and three well-loved friends sat out in the back yard Tuesday evening and watched the interplay of col ors in the clouds, and it was as spectacular in its own pas tel way, as were the flashy displays of northern lights last winter the blending of pinks and grays reminded us of nothing so much as the in side of an abalone shell. However, unlike Potpourri, we did NOT sit out on Wed nesday rather we sat inside by the picture window, and marvelled at the flashes of lightning, and the crackling and bombarding of the thun der and rain.
