IN OUR
VALLEY

ANOTHER PET THEORY bites
the dust with the announcement
on Monday by Weather Chief ". J.
Schnurbusch that on only 10 out
OF the past So Fourths Of July has
II rained.
Surely the weather chief has not
been informed that it always rains
on the Fourth
Why there are literally thousands
OF residents OF the Valley and Of
any other section OF the country
who can tell him that.
It's the gunpowder exploding
that causes the showersl
Or the noise OF the day shakes
the clouds and forces them to dis
gorge the rain they. have been sav-
ikE up for loi these many moons.
Whatever your pet idea IS. any
way, IL always rains on the Fourth,
weather chief or no weather chief
They can't take away all Of our
childhood certainties without q
struggle from us.
BORDER BOLTS" OF The MIS-
sion Times would like to argue with
in our Valley" on the question
Rex we'd, that rain in the Lower
Rio rande Valley does more good
than harm"
And Border Bolts would take
the affirmative.
Debate was given raison d'etre by
q recent utterance In this column
TO the effect that we could very well
get along without rain down here,
thank you.
When we made the statement we
were thinking of a tomato deal
gone half way fuzzy on account Of
untimely rains.
We were thinking OF increased
i~nfestation OF boil YeeYl due 70
prolonged rains during the late
spring and early summer months.
Perhaps we were thinking OF a
potato crop made none better and
perhaps q little worse on account
OF rain al the wrong time.
OR we might have been thinking
Of hay crops ruined by an untimely
shower Just as the hay was ready
TO stack.
And Border Bolts In claiming
that we were erring in u ways
was undoubtedly thinking Of the
money saved owners of citrus or
chards when timely summer rains
came
Or he might have been thinking
or the rain which came just when
the cotton farmers were going TO
have to pay out good money for
irrigating their crop.
And then again he might have
remembered that the rain fell just
IN time to bring up the tender
seeds OF the truck growers seed
beds.
As we list the arguments on his
side OF the debate. look back at
our own. we are inclined to call it
q draw before We start the debate.
s2Dzs herewith promise Border
BolB that we viii malign the rain
no more.
HOW MANY THOUSANDS en-
foyed the beaches OF Padre Island
and Boca Chica last Saturday and
Sunday is largely a matter Of con-
lecture.
Those who ~journeyed to either
beach report that coney Island IN
its palmiest days had nothing on
the Valley seaside resorts.
Parking place was at a premium.
The unfortunate tragedy that
married the Fourth again gives
warning that the waves OF the
ocean are mighty. They SAP the
strength OF the strongest.
Undertow they produce Is mighty.
Let's observe due caution in our
enjoyment.
As time advances, undoubtedly
life guards win be stationed along
the beach. Until then, be cautious,
and after then let's still be cautious.
