PAID YOUR WATER BILL?
NEW RATES ARE COMING
Council Also Will Consider TeIe-
phone and Light Rates Some
Time This Week

The long drawn out controversy be-
tween the council and the Union Hol-
lyWoOd and San Pedro Water COM
panies will be continued this morning
at 8 o'clock, when the board of public
utilities will render a supplemental
report on the San Pedro case. The
supplemental report will probably
make some further changes, for the
San Pedro Water company, and the
rates that company now charges may
continue in force instead of being re-
duced in some cases, as was first rec
commended.
Testimony produced at the rate
hearing before the council last Thurs
day night developed evidence which
the board of public utilities had vain
ly endeavored to get from the water
company before it submitted its first
report. This company did not furnish
a statement of its condition as re-
quired by law until forced to do SO by
proceedings instituted by the city at
torney.
But there will be no change in the
rates recommended for the Union Hol-
lywood Water company The board
of public utilities has recommended
that this company be forced to reduce
it's rates on every part OF it's system
and the council is inclined to accept
the recommendation of the board.
some members OF Ine council are con-
WINGED by the testimony introduced at
the hearing that the rates suggested
by the board of public utilities for the
Union Hollywood Water company are
not low enough. If the board should
say the word the rates would be fixed
even lower than they have been rec
ommended.
The report of the board fixes rates
for gas at so cents per 1000 feet in the
main city of Los Angeles, Hollywood,
Colegrove and the west and northwest
districts, but at $1.35 per 1000 feet at
Wilmington, San Pedro and Terminal
island, where different conditions pre-
vail, are ready for action by the
council.
The board expects to report rates
for electric light and telephones some
time this week, and then will come
the struggle. 1t is limited that the
electric light rate and telephone rate
will be reduced and the corporations
interested in these commodities are
not going to submit tamely. AS the
struggle will be hard one the council
has resigned itself to holding three
sessions a day every day during the
present week.

tail of the canine, in fact, and the dog
woke up.
First he yelped Then he growled.
Then he barked-in that low rumbling
way which bull pups have when they
are irritated. And he didn't stop with
one bark, either-not he. Being a Bos-
tonese he continued to lift up his voice
to say inartistic, things as the steal
ing of his mistress pet song by a
fashion plate" And he still barked.
Miss Lockwood was dreadfully en-
barrassed. She was also mortified,
not to say angry. Not at the pup;
oh, no. She admired the dogs good
taste-for no one can warble that par
ticular music like Miss Lockwood
but at the same time she was afraid
someone would hear the protesting
pups raucous voice.
Someone did-several, in fact. There
was. to be plain, a pronounced little
exodus from that immediate neighbor-
hood First the walters, being already
on their feet, went-and stood not
upon the order of their going either.
Then other after -theater diners went
rather hastily The orchestra looked
apprehensive and fidgeted.
Miss Lockwood kicked the dog. The
dog growled intermittently between
barks. Her escort looked worried.
The song went on. Miss Lockwood
squirmed in her chair.
Max, the head waiter, towering in
height, came to the center of the i'm
promptu stage. He caught the mean
ing of the unusual noises.
Madame" he said in mis- most pol
ished fashion, 1--WE do not allow dogs
in here"
Tim very sorry" Miss Lockwood
murmured. Wont you please take
him to the porter till we finish?"
Max cautiously reached for the
leash The pup protested and showed
as fine a set of dining room furniture
as one could get on the installment
plan for 81 down. 81 a week. Max hes
itated and was lost
Il really believe" he said, that
something annoyed the dog"
YES" said Miss Lockwood, sweetly,
"he didn't like that last singer nor his
song"
TT shall not happen again." replied
the urbane Max. Il will have Mr..
Chase chased, not to say chastened."
Miss Lockwood arose with dignity.
Taking the dog by the leash and with
her escort in tow Miss Lockwood left
in the full possession of her dignity
also of her supper, for she had quite
finished.
But if you want to make trouble in
Levys just growl like a disgruntled
bull pup. And do not wear a long
cape closely wrapped about you when
you go.

I F you were a lady you'd have to
dine, even at that, wouldn't you?
n And it, being lady. you pos
sessed a pup, you'd want that pup to
dine, too, wouldn't you-being hu-
name and all that? And even though
you habitually went to a first-class
cafe you'd still expect the bull pup
to be fed there, wouldn't you? On
the principle that Love me, love my
dog" still is good law?
Go and tell all that to AL Levy
wear ear muffs if you are easily
shocked.
Miss Gladys Lockwood, who MARBLES
a touching ditty about Mary who took
her calves to the dairy show (she
doesn't mean what you mean, either)
over at the Orpheum, is perfect
lady, and she has a bull pup which
she leads about on leash. She habit
ually dimes at Levys, being fond of
good eating. and she customarily feeds
her dog, too. Ergo, when she dimes
with the dog at Levy's she expects
said canine to be fed there, too. Gus
tomarily he is SO fed-in the base
ment by the porter, and all goes well.
But last Friday night Miss Lock
wood accepted an invitation to an
after -theater supper. She had the pup

took the pup along after the show.
She got him past the door man, ali
right, because it was chilly, she had
on a long cape and she put the dog
beneath it. So far, so good. She even
passed the glance of the head waiter,
for big Max only saw the cape. And
she was soon seated at a table in close
proximity to the stage of the cafe
chatant, prepared to enjoy it.
under the table, reposed on the fringe
of her skirt and was sound asleep,
not being given to feeding like hu-
mans at all unearthly hours. The
companionship was delightful, the
Viands excellent and the wine good.
And even the music pleased. though
Miss Lockwood, being herself a singer,
had a right to be a bit blase. Still
she didn't mind it, and neither did the
pup-till Carlton Chase came on.
Now Mr.. Chase is 1.-The fashion plate
of vaudeville" and he enjoys a con-
siderable following here. So when he
warbled THAT Mesmerizin Mendels-
sohn Tune he got a good hand"
and soon was back.
This is where he made his mistake
not in coming back, but in picking on
a certain song for an encore-nothng
else, in fact, than Miss Lockwoods
own ditty about Mary's calves. For
the minute she heard it Miss Lock-
wood sat up straight, put her little
foot down hard-right on the stumpy

Let it be said without further delay
that this question is neither unanswer-
able nor original. Everybody asks it
some time in his career. There is, how
ever, only one way of getting a satis-
factory answer, and that is through the
proof which Christian Science affords
by actual demonstration.
When one accepts the unquestionable
fact that God is not the author of
anything destructive or afflictive and
begins to maintain that fact and rea-
sent from it that disease or affliction,
having no origin in God, have no law
of action or presence and no real eX-
istence, then he will get proof of the
efficacy of Christian Science instruc-
tion, and that proof explains disease or
affliction ly eliminating it. The de-
struction of evil is the explanation of
evil, and there is no other.
1t cannot be destroyed by the popu-
lar systems of medicine and theology.
The best they can do is to mitigate
human suffering to some extent. To
ascribe such experiences to God. as
these systems generally try to do in
some mysterious way, tends to per-
petuate sin and disease.
GRATITUDE TO MRS. EDDY
The world cannot fully understand
the debt of gratitude which it owes to
Mrs. Eddy. Ine perspective ol HlSloIy
will alone reveal it, and even then per-
haps only partially. When she dis
covered the Divine Principle of Chris
tian Science, if she had stopped there,
merely applying her discovery to her
own needs, the world would not have
been benefited. She went much fur
ther than that. Impelled by an ire
sistible longing to help mankind, she
saw that the method of Christian heal
ing must be stated in such way as
to be understood and practiced.
Through years of experience she
gradually formulated the statements OF
Christian Science. both as to its Divine
Principle and Rule, and the Christian
Science text book, Science and Health,
is consequently not theoretical work.
but a practical, scientific exposition or
the Christ Science. The statements
which it contains constantly grow IN
beauty and sublimity the more the
book is studied.
The book enables one to understand
the spiritual import of the Bible, ana,
like the Holy Scriptures. Science and
Health, with Key to the Scriptures,
discloses the Infinite Science of Infinite
Life. 1t declares what the Bible de-
clares in relation to God and His law,
and makes the teachings of the Holy
Scriptures practicable and applicable
to all human needs

If we admit a Creation and thereby
admit the existence of a Creator who
must be eternal we are forced to admit
the conclusion that God is not the
author of sin, disease, or their cul-
mination, death.
This fact is irrefutable and it is basic
in Christian Science. Now, then comes
at once the question as to how sin and
disease, including want and woe, could
even appear. When one explains to the
inquirer that they could not originate
in the Infinite, and that therefore they
have no origin and that their appear
ance is false, he ponders, and then with
a sudden conviction that he is about to
PROFOUND a most original and unan-
swerable question he straightway de-
mands: Well, granting that they have
no cause and therefore no real exist
ence, how is it that they seem to exist?
