WILL REPAIR PARLEY'S
CANYON RESERVOIR
Board of Public Works Author
lied to Advertise for Bids
at Once.

1t was decided by the City Council
Monday night to spend as much of
the water bond fund as may be neces-
sary to thoroughly repair Parley's res
ervoir. AS stated by Councilman Null
vey Monday night the reservoir has
never been much more than mud
hole, over half being constructed of
nothing but rip.rap, and in its present
state will not hold water, entailing a
loss of a large portion of the water
that is put In it. 1t is estimated that
1T will cost from $4,000 to $4,000 to
put the reservoir in condition to hold
water by building concrete walls. The
Council voted TO notify the Board of
Public Works to proceed at once TO
advertise for bids for the work
The matter of the repairs to the res.
ervoir was brought up in the resolution
introduced by Mr.. Mulvey and which
also provided for the construction of a
conduit to connect the Big Cottonwood
conduit and the Parley s conduit This
conduit will be constructed around Par
ley s reservoir so that the water from
Big Cottonwood may be turned directly
into the conduit leading to tho city.
which will make it possible to shut off
the reservoir for cleaning or repairs
without cutting off the Cottonwood wa
ter The resolution was adopted after
being amended to read that the esti-
mate and plans for the construction of
the connecting conduit be referred TO
the Committee on Waterworks
1t was decided that the members of
the Council, or as many of them as can
make the trip, will leave Salt Lake
Saturday morning next on the Rio
Grande and go to Brighton, from which
point excursions Will be made to various
points in the Big Cottonwood region,
where it IS thought reservoirs could be
located which would provide an un-
disputed supply of water for Salt Lake
for many years to come.
City Engineer L. c. Kelsey has been
over the ground and picked out mum
ber of desirable sites and the Council
will visit all OF the proposed sites, ac-
companied by Mr.. Kelsey, who will
point out the advantages or disadvan-
tages of the various sites proposed. The
party will be entertained at Brighton
Saturday night and will return to Salt
Lake Sunday evening.
\ request was received from the
Eighth West Street Improvement league,
which had been addressed to DR. Stew
art, City Health Commissioner, to the
effect that the league desired to have
Thomas j. Livesy and Peter S. Kroman
appointed as special policemen, to serve
"iIhout pays 1ot 1Hc purpose OF alulnP
IN enforcing the sanitary regulations in
that section of the city. DIR. Stewart
recommended that the appointments be
made. The communication was referred
to the Committee on Police to report
back to the Council at the next meeting.
The Council approved the contract
which was let by the Board of Public
Works last week to p, j. Moran for the
macadamizing of Twelfth East street

0PT0METRISTS MEET
Utah Association Is Formed and Of
hcers Elected

The formal organization Of the Utah
Association of Optometrists was effected
al meeting called by Temporary Chair
man o. r. Dibblee. in the Atlas block,
Monday evening, and the ratification OF
the constitution and bylaws, as we'll as
the election of officers for the ensuing
year was also taken up and disposed OF,

president, j. II. Knlckerbocker; second
vice president. W. B, Rushmer secre-
tary, j. L, Broaddus; treasurer, III. A.
Jensou,
The object of the association Is set
forth in article ., section !, OF the by
laws. which is as follows: The object
Of this association shall be TO encour-
age a higher standard of education In
the science OF optometry, to keep abreast
with the rapid advancement along these
lines, 10 diffuse knowledge and promote
friendly intercourse among optometrists,
to safeguard the material interests OF the
profession OF optometry, to assist in Sc
curing the enactment and enforcement of
optometrIcal legislation, and to enlghten
and direct public opinion in regard to
optometrical science"
Owing TO the fact that many of the
neighboring States have enacted very
strict laws for this profession. Utah has
been for some years the dumping ground,
as it were, for all the itlncrant fakirs
who claim 10 be opticians, thereby en-
dangerng the public and becoming n
menace TO the people of the State. An
active crusade Will be begun which, IT
is thought by those Interested, will re-
suit In the enactment of laws in this
State which VIII require all optometrlsts
to pass an examination before State
board. The object of the association has
nothing to do. whatever. with the charges
to be made In the future for optical
work, and bears no relation to trust"
at all.
the association has not been definitely
fixed but it Will be some time in the
first week OF October Invitations will

SOCKER FO0TBALL|STS
TO ARRANGE SCHEDULE
Outlook Is for a Most Active
Season in the Sport
Locally.

President William Service Of the Utah
State Socker Football association has
Issued call for a league meeting, to
be held on September % The aim at
this time will be 10 arrange a schedule
for the coming season, which promises
TO be a most active one for socker foot
ball players. Present plans are to have
the series so arranged as to play games
practically every Saturday until the
snow begins TO fall.
The association is at present com
prised OF clubs from Ogden, Park CITY
Eureka and Salt Lake. It Is possible
however. that teams from Murray and
the Y. NJ. c. a. may be admitted TO the
league. There ie some talk OF taking
up socker football at All HalIows col
lege, and President Service says there
would be no objection TO the collegians
entering the league II they should de-
sire. But whether these teams enter
or not, the local season in socker foot
ball Will be a live one.
President Service is still In communi-
cation with the management OF the Pill
grims, the famous English socker foot
ball team, which is at present planning
tour Of America. The probability OF
a game between the local team and the
Pilgrims is not at all unlikely. If the
Pilgrims do come an effort Will be made
TO get together an all-Utah team to
meet them. visit from the English
experts would stimulate the sport To-
cally more than anything else.
The outlook for good players in the
league is encouraging. President Ser
vice says that the locals Will play the
same style Of ball as that used by the
Pilgrims This means that the whole
team works as unit, Just like a ma
chine. This combination style has been
proved superior to the kick and rush
method that Chicago tried against the
English Corinthians, with the result that
the Americans were defeated by a score
of TO ..
