No doubt that the Dinosaur, cran- ing its long neck and eating the leaves from the tallest trees that grew on The Mountain’s mighty slope, regarded it as his very own mountain. It is conceivable that the Pterodac- tyl, the flying lizzard, disputed the Di- nosaur’s claim and that they battled furiously for its possession. Maybe the Pleciosaurus and the Ic- thiosaurus also fought for The Moun- 9 Even then The Mountain was very old. * * * Then came the Glacier Age Man. ‘This is my mountain,” he said. And he had to fight the saber-tooth tiger, and the wolf that was bigger than a buffalo, and the five-toed horse, which climbed the steepest cliffs with ease and which was the great-granddaddy of all the horses of tod, How The Mountain must have chuckled in its sleeve—that is, if mountains can be said to have a sense of humor! .

They have started a new determined effort to give their name to the mountain, Well, The Moun- tain IS nearer Tacoma than Seattle. It 1S foolish to quarrel. The double name the traveler sees on the maps IS confusing. Tacoma, thru its mayor and commissioners has approached the governor. They have approached Mayor Gill and the city council. Gov.

But Lister does not want to offend Seattle. | | | it, ae, ee i | Let’s end the quarrel. Let’s say to | Tacoma, “Call The Mountain what you please.” Whatever it is called, it will always be The Mountain, and it will continue to be The Mountain long after such names as “Rainier,” “Seattle” and “Tacoma” are forgotten. If there is an element of self-sac: fice in relinquishing the name of “Rai- nier”—and it is tough to have to give up both mountain and beer so yclept at the | same time—so much finer the act.
