WE ARE ALL WRONG-RAINS ARE
 GLORIOUS.

People of the Pacific Coast, particularly those of the North Pacific, probably do more grumbing about the rain than anything else Our wet weather undoubtedly more than any other thing has been a promoter of pessmism-such pessimism have, which, thank fortune is not great deal
 But we are all wrong about it. Rain should pro- duce optimism. After reading the rhapsodc com ment of Eastern papers on the glorious wonders of the rain that has fallen in abundance in the East during the present year, convinced that the favored people of the world those who live along the Alaska and British Columbia Pacific Coast.
 If anyone has any doubt about it, read this edi- torial from the New York Times which appeared under the heading, "The Rains:
 We know not what others may think
 but to us the chief glory of this Summer has been the rain, early, middle and later
 Many Of the younger generation, perhaps, hardly know what rain is Yet here it is, and they lie awake night after night knowing that the parched earth is quench-
 ing her thirst Now it drop by drop, it rains cats and dogs It blinds, drzzles, trenches, drowns It gurges, murs patters, ripples sobs. It drps whips, skips. It babbles bubbles burbles, especially in tunnels. It cools the fevered brow of the commuter. Each randrop makes foweret grow. Beautiful thought! Would that the bootblack could share it. instead of sulleny and swearngly shutting up his booth, unresigned to the bountes of nature.
 It never rains but it pours and, far as our limited experience reaches, it seldom pours but it rains Although it rain, throw not away thy watering pot" says George Herbert. If it rain, don't expect to get taxcab. A little rain lays a great wind A good steady rain cleans the streets of New York. Our esteemed ancestors, agri- cultural in their habits, to have stayed at home when it rained making proverbs too often cynical and coughing at their smoky chimneys. More rain more rest: this saw has ceased to work as generously and as generally of old. If wet days were holidays, what a season would the lazy have had this year The eye is dazzled by the procession of emerald lawns The grate- ful vegetables lift up their mouths and drink and sit their roots as in a bath tub. We know personally New Hampshire gardener who, confused by the contiguty of the respective bins, put Portland cement in- stead of fertilizer on the peas. Never was there such crop. The heavens wept con- structively over that pea plot
 Hear the splashing and the dashing watch the dance of the raindrops on the
 casement"-"casement" is the word For the rain it raineth every day What do we care if it rains like Old Boots? We lad up $15 last month just for rainy day. If he survive the ferocious Virginia campaign against him, MT. Raskob is going to give us his check for $800O0 in l949 The more rain the merrier say we It's got to stop some time.
