KINGS ARE SAC K
I'r. and Mrs. Clyde King Sr. returned fron
California this week following a two months
vacation in the States. They were called
to Long Beach, California, in November be
cause of the illness of Mr. King’s mother.
Mr. King said that although his nother had
been very"ill and confined to her bed for
six weeks, she ras up and around vhon they
loft there and feeling quite well..
In commenting upon California’s' ueather,Mr.
King stated that they nearly froze uhile
there. The houses are neither built for
cold ueather nor are they equipped for ad
equate heating during cold ueather. Then
too the ueather is danp at this tine of the
year and nhon the fog rolls in off the
ocean it is realty cold Mr. King said.Crops
there have suffered about a -25$ loss,he
said. The damage is not thought to be as
bad as it ras first estimated to be.
On thoir uay back Mr. and Mrs.'King visited
their daughter, Mrs.,Sid Black, and her
family at Sobastopol. They also stopped
in Portland. Going out they had flotm all
j the uay,and it uas really rough according
1 to Mr. King. From Seattle oh th,ey took a
1 Strato plane to Los Angelos. But on the
! return trip they came by bus to-Seattle
| and onjdyed the scenery. They traveled only
hy day so that they,-mould not‘miss anything.
Although they'had a nice trip, they arc
very glad to be back.
, Mr. King found himself simply snoued.under
uith snou plouing upon his. return. This
uoek of all ueoks has been especially bad
and shifts have been uorking' the clock a
i round to cl oar roads so that milk deliveries
i to the creamery can be made and children
: can get to school. It is expected that all
'roads prill-bo-open by this ueek end, tut
ueather reports aro favorable for more snou—
: so it looks liko a busy season; for 'the ARC.
