If you aes. Bs it. It will be hours pro- lifically invested. For Sestinds, take the Carbon on the north side of Mt. Rainier. You'll get a thrill as soon as you see its sooty snout rooting trium- phantly thru a wilderness of moraines and gushing forth a dirty river. 4 You will find on your left a trail laborious- ly climbing parallel with the glacier’s sprawl- ing length, and from the former’s dizzy way across the rockslides and heaped-up voleanic debris you will view the ice river as it plows and gol its way down from the clouds wand {to melting terminus far below the timber line. | After many hours of toilsome climb will attain a parkland similar to the widely known Paradise where you will wish to make your camp and from which later you will seek closer acquaintance with your ice friend. This will be a difficult enough matter to begin, because, first, you must get onto said glacier, and that means a_nerve-racking series of slides and scrambles down the steep- ry slope of a high moraine which seems to be com in equal parts of dry, fine "ashes, boulders of every imaginable size and shape and original cussedness. But you accomplish it finally, dust choked, ted and wondering how you are ever going t back up. ‘ou find yourself on the glacier itself, heaped, rough like an infernal stone Patch in which giant farmers are eternally punished for their sins by being made to Under and between the of rock and re eee Gave plenty of ico— ice that sometimes you by coasting violently down a that thought : ii leant sha oot te Ge casionally stands gaping to the sky in gigan- tic crevasses where rumble unseen torrents or where stand purple pools of chilled water.

Again you hear a tor- rential stream roaring under boulders and ice masses where your eye cannot pierce. Sometimes you come across an apparently sine gee shaft ~ a aa disap- pears with a growl and a gurgle. And the sounds! Ten minutes of sitting on a glacier boulder will convince you once for that you are indeed in the presence of a LIVING, MOVING thing. For the glacier talks! It rumbles, it groans. A rock unex- pectedly slides down an ice slope or pitches with a cavernous plunk into a crevasse. And often there comes a crash followed by a drum- fire of grating and rending as some mighty ice mass from a high point on the great mountain avalanches down onto the upper reaches of * amg glacier. It is a day of primeval interests you will pass. You are right on the ground where the old earth-making and shaping processes are in actual present-moment operation. No in- telligent, responsive man can withstand the spectacle without awe and wonderment—and a new readjustment of ideas. Brother, if you never have done it, visit a glacier and get closely acquainted. as a desert. have more eyes on them. Christmas. The cost of living is the same—all you make. month.

Following the war, most of the construction was on factories, of- fice buildings, theaters and other non-residential structures. Now the home builder ts getting his. In point of floor space and in dollars, the contractors for residences let during the first summer months were more than double that of any other class of buildings. Costs, mvaflable supplies, stm plified bullding codes, and schemes to aid home builders in financing bullding, have been surveyed in a comprehensive way by the government, which Is working In close conjunction with state and city organizations to encourage building.
