STROLLER PHOENIX, ARIZ., Nov. 30— An entire week was recently observed in this city as Phoe nix Sunshine Week with vari ous kinds of festivities. It was sponsored by the Chamber of Commerce. The observance was certain ly timely for it is its sunshine that has made this country fa mous all over the world. It has many other assets and attrac tions. but its sunshine is out standing. Sunshine is bright, beau tiful and healthful. No won der people flock to Phoe nix from all parts of the United States every Winter to enjoy it. In some parts of the coun try, there is very little sun shine at this season—just one dork, gloomy day after an other. The almost incessant sun shine of Phoenix makes the Summers uncomfortably hot but the Winter season is de lightful. It is understandable that the Phoenix Chamber o' Commerce likes to publicize Yes, sunshine is beautiful, but it is more than that to some people. To them, it is a matter of life and death. I received a rather pathetic letter from a Nebraska woman the other day, asking about Phoenix and its sunshine. She said the doctors had told her husband that, if he didn't leave that climate at once and go to a warm, dry climate, he would die. Na turally, she was very anx ious. I gave her all the informa tion I could and I hope the | hu band—an old neighbor— may find help as so many ! other people have done. (Next week: The Smoking Habit.) TESTYOUR I. Q. QUESTIONS 1.
