 They'll soon he as many WOtter Users Sosiashuns in tn Salt River Val ley as they is Wotter users. Wenever a man gifts afeared at what his Nay Der is doin' won't soot him he calls his self a Wotter User SociAshun an sez at he thinks at when his Vues is pre- sented to tn Interyor Department it'n guvern itself accordin'ly an perceed to bild tn Reservoy to meet tn opinions of tn laitest Wotter Users Sociashu1 ats been heerd fun.
 Tn Department said at it knode how it wanted to put tn Nashunle IT, rigashun law into cffeck an it was iIst gittin' Reddy to go ahead an bild it when it heerd fun tn Presbytery- un Generic Sembly Friday mite. Tn Sembly sez Hole on you're about to make a Crate Mistaik if you Bild on tn Tonto Basin site That won't do any body but tn whites any good. Tn Cheef End of Man we ust to think was to Glorify Gawd an enjoy him fer ever. but since our creed has been Re vised it mesns at OUT Cheef End is to Glorify tn Pima an Marycopy iniuns so as at they can have a Resevoy an enjoy theirselfs. You must bild your Damn at San Carlos"
 Tn Department had been settIn' up all mite waitin' to see what tn Generic Sembly was goin' to to aDout it. When tn Department got tn Tellygraft fun Lost Angelus it says to itself: This is Hell an Repeet, but we 'spose We got to go ahed an pervide Wotter fer these here Injuns. We know it won't be fer tn Best but we can't go agin tn Gen. erie Sembly or we'll Impurl our never Dyin' Soles."

We admit at it would improve our Condishun some but not as much as we wisht. It'll do some parts of tn Valley at ain't so favor ably situated as us too much good. We 'druther at instid of sich a Clam ity as that at they wuddent be no Damn a'-tall. However. if tn Depart ment can bild it in sich a way at we can git all tn benefit instid of only our sheer of it. as has been onjustly pro- posed. we're willin' to give our con sent.''
 When tn Department heerd fun Tempe it sez to itself. We see now at we been too Premachoor We've Hecrd only fun tn Generic Sembly, an tn Tempe Wotter Users Sociashun.
