The heat in the day time is often almost unbearable; un-bearable; yet at night the : temperature his dipped "dangerously close to the - freezing point. Tomatoes are : just beginning to ripen in the fields. They cannot mature without the sun. Peaches and '. pears are still green. They, too, need the sun's rays to become sweet enough for the 'palate. : Farmers pray for more ' warm weather, while other : people are tempted to wish " for cooler weather. At the .: same time, the city is grow- ing at leaps and bounds. It is worth a leisurely trip on foot, on horseback, or by car to see : the beautiful homes which are being completed in the : various subdivisons and in other parts of the city. : The Fackrell subdivision down on 11th West and south : of 4th North is a credit to the community. The Golden West .'I- Subdivision on Page's Lane v below Pony Haven is attract-. attract-. ingrmany outstanding couples - and their great youngsters. : Their homes are beautiful. i. The Hill West subdivision ' up the street on the former : LDS Church property is also a place to admire.

The Bridle Acres subdivision, on 11th West and north of 4th North is growing at leaps and bounds and also is the area of : lovely homes and plans for gardens and well-kept outside spots.
