Phoenix Sunshine
Is Commented On
By A. 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.

Habit.)
