on the local mountains* will rpadily
understand why the Indians called
this the "Lend of the Shining Mount
ains", and why this characterization
was applied to the country* ;Ve ob
serve that the Valleys that arc hid
den in the daytime from our view,
can new be readily discerned at
at night.
It was hard to believe that seme
pictures that we saw some time ago
were taken at midnibht, ©specially
when the sign on the Water Tank
showed up as plain as day on a film
taken about a quarter >f a mile a
way, but when we tried it ourselves
we had to admit that it can ue done.
And not to mention the "I rthern
Lights" is unthinkable. We can't
describe them, but we observed one
recently that reminded us of beauti
ful Organ Music when played try a
fester's Hand. There was tie im
nense organ filling the northern sky
in an immense color scheme, the
flare of the lights on a rack com
parable to the pipe holders, remind
ed us of some beautiful melody v/rit
;en perhaps by the Great Artist, now
a 1ow cadence and then a gradual
puild up to the great blare T the
'"’cep colored basses. Of course
there was no audible sound, and,
maybe we are a little bit touched.,
but if so, it great to be that way
and not know it.
