SUMMERS EAST AND SUMMERS
TUCSON

Although Tucson has a reput.
alton for hot summers. those
who have stayed in the city this
season can draw some content
ment from the fact that the
whole country from blathering
Los Angeles to aristocratic Cape
Cod has been frying, sizzling,
and scorching. Those who have
gone east to escape a Tucson
summer have gone in vain, for,
from the plains of Kansas to the
canyons of New York City, old
Sol has been showing himself as
never before, sending forth his
brightest beams, and laughing
at the weller he causes. Ooly
here and there in the east are
the cool spots which can mock
at the suns efforts. Only here
and there a place available and
convenient where some respite
from the heat can be found by
people of ordinary means.
This is where Tucson and Ari
zona have a distinct advantage.
There are many places but few
hours ride from Tucson where it
is cool. delightful. and free to
all who choose to come. The
northern part of the state is q
summer paradise with unsur
passed scenery and delightful
mountain camp sites shaded by
primeval forests. Close by Toc-
son are tne Sonoita and Patago
MIA districts only a two hour
drive away. Up on Mt. Lennon
it is cool and delightful on the
hottest days in Tucson. Oracle
and several other cool retreats
are quickly available to Tucson
ans. Few places in the east
have these wonderful advant
ages. Back there the people
have to sit and attempt to grin
and bear it, and when they are
not sizzling, smothering and
sweating, they are freezing,
coughing and complaining about
the damp. cold weather. When
they are not fighting coughs and
the flu, they are fighting mos.
quitos and sweltering weather.
There is no place like Arizona
and Tucson. They are famous
because they-what's that? Yes,
