Show NOT MUCH SORRY FOR THEM Reports come from Europe that the last was the wettest June ever eve known and that July promises es to keep up the record that the hotels are crowded with tourists who are arc wailing in vain for the weather to moderate so that they can go to the mountain resorts Of course the great majority of those tourists are Americans and not very much sympathy will follow them because not many of them ever saw Puget Sound or Yosemite or Yellowstone Yellowstone Yellowstone Yel Yel- park or Lake Tahoe or Mount Shasta or Hood or Tacoma or sailed down the Columbia or took in the Sierras and their pines or ever ever stopped to reflect that in ill their own country there is more splendid scenery and better hotels than can be supplied in Europe Hence it is good for them to suffer and to wait and in the meantime they had b better Itter get geographies and learn enough about the United States to enable them to converse about their own country intelligently r. r V |
