We may have summer in Aug- ust. Evidently Prince Rupert has for a brief period gone off the sunshine standard. Life has been something like the rear end of a mule lately. It has given out plenty of kicks and has not cared who was in the way. Why not have the economic con- ference at Ottawa try its hand at settling this rain problem? Thursday I strolled down the de- serted Third Avenue in the after- noon, I met three people and each deplored the weather conditions that made it impossible for store- keepers and clerks to go out holi- daying.
