THIS. ANY THAT By ROY GRIFFITH DEETER Weather note: Last night the Chinook blew. Yes, I know, the Chin‘ook belongs to the State of Nevada and besides this it is the wrong time of the year. Nevertheless and notwithstanding, it felt like a Chinook, ‘it smelt like a Chinook, it sounded like a Chinook, and it.WAS a Chinook. A weird’and wonderful night as any of you may have observed. with the fast waning moon caught in a veil of cloud, and stars that were somehow reluctant. We went out twice, to make sure it was the night and not us, and definitely it was the night. We felt awful gash darn grateful that we are alive, and even in the . bright and unromantic sunlight this morning we still feel the sameway. The Miners Picnic at Park yesterday went ‘off with a tremendous wallop, great gobs of people and all apparently having a wonderful time. It is a fine cause and it is nice to know it met wit such grand co-operation. We have been nosing about in new houses again, and golly are there simply seads of them in this general vicinity! Some of them are most awfully attractive too. Makes one wonder if this com. munity is ever going to stop growing, and to strike a pessimistic note, would happen if a sudden But the one thing we really started out to remark upon, before we side tracked ourselves with silly thoughts, was that people are at last beginning to realize that after all shingles make the prettiest roofs, and moreover shingles that are staggered give an effect that we. defie anyone to better. Why anyone should nail shingles in long straight rows, is beyond us (but then practically anything is!) when you can get an getting up there and just sticking em on any. old-how Next year we plan to have! new roofing on our nest, and believe us, ours will be staggered till it simply ripples. Nature note: They say weather . ean be predicted from the birds and . the bees and the acorn trees, to say nothing of squirrels and Undles I means ants and stuff. Well if this is the case, look out for this winter! Last year we had nary an acorn, and' you all know how it rained. The year before we had lots of acorns, and remember how it snowed? Well , this year, we have acorns practically the size of grapefruit and when they fall upon the roof in great masses, it sounds like an air raid. We advise. buy . oodles of wood or oil or whatever you, . use for fuel, get out the old ski and . you to examine your. roofs, dope them up early, and generally prepare for the worst! Gosh but we . reek with nice cheerful thoughts today, don’t we? Well, with this we will dismiss the class, and say, hullo Daddy, and . 'cheerio everybody!
