The Clydesdale Horse

The Clydesdale horse originated In
Scotland. Historical evidence shows
that John Paterson, tenant farmer of
Lochlyock in the county of Lanark
(known as the Clydesdale district), be-
tween IT'S and 1920. crossed a Elem.
ish stallion from England on native
mares. ImpOrtations were first made
in large numbers into the United
States about 18S0-81. Clydesdales are
typically bay or brown with four white
stockings and white strip on the
face. Breeders emphasize light silky
hair on the back of the legs (called
feather), long sloping pasterns, and
large, round feet.-Hoard's Dalrman.

About this time of the year, as the Old Farmers
Almanac used to put it, look for the first crop of weather
forecasts for the Winter. The long-rargt Projectors are
have a severe winter with plenty of cold, lots of snow
and some heavy rains. So anyone who is inclined to be-
lieve the weather prophets might as well get a fur coat
and a pair of rubber boots and be prepared.
Seriously, the chief of the United States Weather
Bureau lends a little color to this attempt at long-range
forecasting. DR.. W. r. Gregg, whose nickname in Wash
ington is Old Probabilities" in his annual report de-
scribes the development of new methods of foretellng the
weather by the use of radio, "air-sounding," by means OF
balloons sent up to high attitudes and particularly by the
study Of previous weather cycles. If there is anything in
the weather cycle theory, then we may be in for a long
series of cold, wet Winters, succeeding the 25 years or SO
of generally mild, open Winters prior to the last one.
The science of meteorology, however, has not yet
reached the point, in Dr.. Gregg's opinion. where a grea,
reliance can be placed upon efforts to tell the weather for
more than a week or two ahead.
Sometimes in this big country of ours the western
part will suffer under a very severe Winter while the
East is hardly affected. Sometimes it is the other way
about Nobody knows yet why the cold air currents from
the North Pole which sweep southwark sometimes come
down east of the Rocky Mountains and sometimes west
of the mountains. Nobody is sure yet what effect sun
spots and other disturbances outside of the earths atmo-
sphere have upon the weather. The only thing we can be
sure of is, as the old couplet has it:
Whether it rain or whether it snow,
We shall have weather, whether or no"

Life Sensational

Our nearby friends engaged in construction of the
Fort Peck dam are being subjected, it seems. to the SEN
sationalism which nearly always characteristics efforts of
eastern journalists to bring to their readers accounts of
life in the hinterlands.
The journalism in this case is pictorial, found in ne
first issue OF Life. The new Life is an excellent maya
zine, just such a one as would be expected from the alert
and aggressive publishers of Time. Its treatment of the
Fort Peck dam project though many connected with
the dam will deplore it, is the natural result of the in
sistent demand on editors to find stimuli for big city
mass circulation.
Life sent its woman ace photographer to Fort Peck
to shoot the project. From reports that came out OF
Glasgow while she was there, she did much painstaking
work on the project and took a number of effective pic
lures of work and progress on the dam. But she also
found adjoining the dam site some mushroom shack
towns reminiscent of the roaring times of the old wild
west or of Alaska in the gold rush days. Her powdered
noe caught the scent of news and she was off to take pic
lures in the night spots of Wheeler and New Deal. When
her portfolio reached the desk OF Lies editors, they
snapped up the beer hall photos as the best human in
terest shots OF he week. AS a result, that one human in
terest side OF the Dig project is what S brought to the
thousands who will read the first issue of the new maya
zine.
1t is the same appeal that sent eastern writers
scurrying back to New York last summer with parching
tales OF permanent deserts created by the loo droutn
though it was not, in truth, as bad as that of lso4. Peope
in northern Wisconsin and Minnesota see the same
when Chicago and twin city newspapers play up stories
of brush fires as though each were a devastating conia-
grafton driving hundreds from burning homes.
1t is difficult to make a sensational picture of a huge
pile Of dirt (the worlds largest) being thrown up to Gre
ate a 150-mile-long lake, but a mother p~erching her
poorly nourished child on a bar while she serves the
rough patrons of a western beer tavern makes a good
camera study any day. 1t is well nigh impossible to re-
cord on Photographic plate the drama of the dredges
pumping steadily to pile up slowly but relentlessly that
wall OF river mud which will be the Fort Peck dam. But
it is easy to strike deeply, almost harshly with nude re-
ality, in such a picture as the one whose tersely descrip-
tive caption reads: the only idle bed springs in New
Deal are the broken ones"

TOMORROW THE TEST OF US

1t is sometimes my sad fortune to
have TO deliver an after-dinner speech.
Few experiences are more depressing.
One sits up at a high table like a
specimen at a ZOO. One waits with in
creasing discomfort while the toast
master works slowly down the line,
and tries to look appreciative as the
other speakers unfold their solutions
of world problems with a sprinkling of
stale jests.
Only now and then there is a bit of
compensation. The other NIGHT, for in
stance. | found myself beside another
speaker who ate Sparingly, and when |
remarked on it. he said: Il always
have TO feel well tomorrow. If you live
today so that you will feel all right to-
morrow you don't get into much
trouble"
That made me think hat you can
estimate men according to their attit-
ude toward tomorrow. How many to-
morrows can they see? How much are
they willing to sacrifice for tomor-
row?
A day laborer can see only a half
dozen tomorrows. He must be paid
every week. An entrepreneur may
cheerfully invest half a lifetime in a
new business from which not he but
his children will profit.
Artists and writers have been
known to disregard entirely the near
tomorrows, pinning their faith on the
fairer and more enduring verdict of
posterity.
The prophet, of course, looks farth-
est Of all. Stephen. on his way to
death, cried: Behold | see the heavens
opened" Jesus, about to be crucified,
assured His disciples: Il have over
come the world"
1t strikes me that what we need
these days is the habit of taking a
little longer look, envisaging a few
more tomorrows.
Some of us act as if this present
distress were the first test of the
worlds endurance that has ever come
We are afraid that if it is not straight

Fog and Sunshine

Hardly necessary to ask anyone which kind of wea-
Their they enjoy-the sunshine or fog-is it? The first
bright day following the disagreeable period brought
forth the ejaculation from most everybody: Sure a swell
day, isn't it?"
When we have a steady diet of nothing but sunshine
and balmy days we become accustomed to it so that it is
taken as a matter of course.
So it goes with living. If it's too easy, possibly we
don't appreciate it enough. But most folks have plenty
of grief and sorrow and when the pleasant places roll
around we accept them with more gratitude and pleas
ure.
No doubt that is the way life is planned for US
