WHERE NATURE BEcKoNS

The salt Lake promoters Of the
from Europe and toward the far west
of our own country probably is not pre-.
mature The time will come unques-
tionably when the grandeur and
beauty Of our mountain and coast
states will he appreciated. The fact
will be recognized, also. that Europe
has but few natural attractions COM
! parable with those which are seen IN
these states. But it may be a long
| time before the American craze for
skirmishing on the outskirts Of Eu-
ropean nobility Is satisfied. Until that
time comes the natural beauties of
the west will he enjoyed only by the
class of people who love plain 1a-
ture without the glittering tinsel of
fashion.
1t is the variety and vastness Of the
scenery in this western line that
places it beyond comparison Win
what is seen in Europe The Alps
and part of the Mediterranean shore,
the Rhine and the Danube, are tho
greatest of Europe's natural attrac-
tions. We have mountain peaks in
the west that overtop the highest Of
the Alps, and we have lofty mountain
ranges that occupy greater areas than
whole countries in Europe. In the
Colorado river we have one of the
greatest wonders of the world, and
our giant trees and petrified forests are
without parallel anywhere.
In this period of mid-July a two
hour railway jaunt will bring trav
eler to tthe foothills of mountains that
reach more than two miles skyward.
In the hottest days known to South
near the tops of those mountains where
perennial ice and snow make a tenn
pera ture that calls for heavy clothing.
These icy deposits are so vast in
places that they present veritable ga-
ciers challenging the courage and
skill even of famous high mountain
climbers.
Best of all, the lofty mountains in
question. some of whose peaks are
visible from Los Angeles when at
conditions are favorable, Of
fer alluring invitations to pleasure
seekers in the midsummer season. At
attitudes not so high as the peaks there
are many canyons through which ice
cold water runs in rivulets, alike
summer and winter, fed by
the ice and snow deposits at higher
points. Cozy dells are in these eau
yons, where campers find ideal condi-
tions for a glorious outing in closest
touch with nature.
The summer attractions of these
mighty sierras of the west cannot long
be overlooked by the throng of Am
ericans who now swarm in Europe
during the summer months. The
apers of European nobility will con-
tinue, no doubt, to heed fashions man
date to journey across the Atlantic in
quest of pleasure, but the saner
class will in time turn to the far
west and seek the delights that now
are within easy and inexpensive reach

ors have stopped work and no doubt
action will be begun against them on

inflow of water, the sewer cannot be
finished without considerable delay and
large additional expense. It is a situa

sewer has been relied on by the whole

Economy in the use of water is urged
by Superintendent Mulholland. 1t is
usual in midsummer for the supply to
run iow' owing to the large quantities
OF water required for lawns and gar
dens' but there is apprehension that
the supply may run lower than
ever this year, on account OF
the tremendous increase in the
city's population. Los Angeles is
growing so fast that no department of
the city government can keen mace
with 1t, and the water department is
most frequently at it's wits end to meet
the emergencies. The conservation of
the past winter was unusually large.
but the clty's growth was even larger.
Therefore. don't waste water.
