stretch. She is intelligent quick witted
and business-like. What salary does she want?
Well, all she can get. That's thesort of a girl
one generally engages, provided he can't get
her for less. However, good operators are
worth paying for. Next on the calendar is the
elderly woman, who used to be ten-striker
and who has worked for the ablest attorneys
on the coast Her salary is generally just suf-
ficient to live on and be comfortable. She has
learned to explain that the Judge has just
stepped out and will not be back to-day with
out permitting her face to go too far. She is to
a certain extent valuable article to have on
hand. Her hours are regular and she never
goes to dances and oversleeps herself next day.
Aside from all that she is generally very care
fully about not knowing where you can be
found and is too tired to talk about office af-
fairs after closing hours.
"Then again we have the young lady who
chews gum, calls the Office boy by his first name
and quotes law to the clerk. When you ask
her to do anything she does it as though you
were one of the hired hands whom she was ac-
commodating. Early in the afternoon she puts
on her straw hat and veil and remarks that
she will drop around in the morning and finish
those dispositions, providing some fellow she is
expecting from Berkeley doesn't take her
bicycling She knows all the clerks in the
building and swaps gossip with the elevator
boys about other operators. She is hardly
the thing to have around steadily.
"Another and much more interesting species
is the demure little girl who was driven to
clerical work by q long life of misfortune. Her
clothes are plain and neat. Her little brother
brings down her lunch and bottle of evap-
Grated milk at quarter to twelve, and she eats
it behind the screen while reading one of the
morning papers. She works hard and is faith
full until one day when she announces be-
tween bushes that she is about to marry.
Your wife takes compassion on her and you
are called upon TO make presents to the bride
and groom.
''Last of all is the girl who draws her salary
several weeks ahead and then gets mad and
quits because your clients are not all good
looking men, loaded with theater tickets or
bon-bon boxes. She is diplomatic, calculating
and always ahead of the game. There are
others also.'

"There are several kinds Of type-writers,'
said Attorney Heggerty to friend in the occl-

chine, but to the operator. AS a matter OF fact
there is at the present time in these United
States race of type-writing operators who are
more distinct in their peculiarities and more
unusual in their beliefs than any other class OF
professional people living"
"Well, for instance, state your case just as 1T
strikes you, Mr.. Heggerty. 1 have no doubt
your conclusions are the result of close study.

requirement and application of water for irri-

There have been some fraudulent schemes
brought forward under the Wright law, where
the intention was not improvements, but SIM
ply to float bonds without limit All these
schemes have been brought 10 an end. OF
course the decision of Judge Ross is attacked
by some of the newspapers Which have had
good jobs in booming certain irrigation dis
tricts. But good lawyers do not seem to be
disposed just now to make an issue with Judge
Ross-Oakland Tribune.
The decision is a black eye for every irrigat-
ing enterprise in the State. In the long run, If
it is finally held to be good law. the bitches
and works would pass into the handsof the
bondholders, and they in turn would make
such charges as would compensate for their
present trouble Thus it is that the decision
is the worst possible thing that could happen
