Glacier is Melting
For the past week, however, it
has been looking as if the Sciots
might have to give up their water
carnival on account of the condi-
ton of the river. With the pro-
tecting blanket of the snow gone,
the hot sun has been blazing right
down on the glacier on Mount
Shasta and raising the very dick
ems with it. A week ago it slid
down 400 feet or so at one time,
covering the spring which was the
source of the water supply for the
village of McCloud, which has
since had to have water hauled in
by train. An immense amount of
volcanic ash and red mud is being
showed down into the McCloud riv-
err and passed on into the Sacra-
mento, so that the river here has
taken on the appearance, exactly.

thusiastic swimmers venture forth

Redding's water supply comes
from the Sacramento river. The
sediment is allowed to settle out of
it and then the water is treated
with chlorine for bacteria. How
ever, the plant was not built to
handle such a proportion of sedi-
ment as this, and good deal Of it
comes through. In small quaint

Miss Doris Runge of this city,
who has been spending some time
in California and who after more
than a year at the office of Ma
tional Park Headquarters, lse-
mite, is at present working in the
Olive of the Pacific Gas and cleo
trio company at Redding among
the mountains of Norther Califor-
MIA, in a recent letter to her broth
er, Ralph T. Runge, relates some
facts Of general int crest
about conditions in that region.
With Mr.. Runge's permission we
quote from her letter.
Your news about the weather in
Wisconsin is very interesting and
causes a sensation when l tell
about it here, because it is so much
the opposite from the weather Cal
ifornia is having. This is the dry
est season California has had since
back in the eighties. Very little
snow fell last winter in the high
country q came out of Yosemite
in March over a bare road gener-
ally covered at that season with
ten feet of tightly packed snow
with the result that streams are
drying, springs are"giying out, and
water for irrigating and for cleo
trio current is to be had in insult
ficient quantities. Although the
Sacramento river is also the lowest
it has been in many years, this
part of the country is probably
better off than most others, for
the lava beds of Mount Shasta,
where the water that flows through
this region comes from, are full of
waterfilled caverns which act as a
great reservoir. There is very
little variation Of flow from year
to year in the tributaries of the
Sacramento which come from there
and although for the first time any
body around here remembers
Mount Shasta is bare of snow eX-
cept for a tiny patch at the top,
these particular streams are about
as high as usual.
Ma+ar Carnival
The local pyramid of Sciots are
holding a water carnival during
the first days of September, with
swimming races, bathing beauty
contest, decorated floats, fire works
and all that sort of thing. Some
Of them tried to persuade me to
enter the swimming races and l
did think of it at first, but bunch
of girls from San Francisco, who
are used to competing in amateur
swimming races, are coming down
for the event, and against that sort
of competition l would look fool
ish. Even with purely local com
petition / probably would not have
