Seattle, Washington, Sunday March 6 Dark morning but by noon the sun shone. Took a short morning walk and then read until noon. After lunch took a car to Vol-\nunteer Park to get a broad view of the environs. Seattle is built on several hills all separated by many crooked ways. The Capitol is on one of the highest, and the State University is sev- eral miles to the north of the center of Seattle. The town architecture is pleasing if peculiar of bright colors and considerable stucco. Spent the evening at the City Library. The layman on this whole West Coast I think, Los Angeles has a larger building but has far fewer books and magazines than the library of Seattle.
