Romance That Is Successful.


Romance That is Successful.
Washington.-Who would think
that you'd find romance in a motor
cycle The fact that little Dan
Cupid never overlooks a chance was
evidenced when by means of mo-
torcycle-ordinary pieces of unfeel-
ing machinery-Dr. j. Bartlett Hills,
prominent dentist of 1912 New
York avenue welded Miss Edith
Asheton of this city.
Friends of the couple state that DR..
Hills and Miss Asheton met several
months ago at the residence of mu-
tual friend, and after the usual intro
ductions the doctor had let it be
known by inference that he was the
proud possessor of one of the cutest
little motorcycles that ever put-put-
ted down Pennsylvania avenue
| Promptly Miss Asheton showed her
courage by accepting an Invitation to
cycle with him.
| Then, amid the sweet-scented
dusks of late summer evening, down
the peaceful stretch Of the avenue,
where the sparrOws chippered and
cheeped, the doctor and his fiancee
rode the motorcycle. Miss Asheton
rode in front and the doctor, ever
watchful of reckless telegraph mes
senger steered.
Then Dan Cupid decided that as
there were two carburetors with but
a single thought and two cylinders
that beat as one he might as well take
a hand in the situation, and shortly
after announcement of thes engage
ment was made public.
The couple were married by the
Rev. II. Schroeder and Immediately
after left for their honeymoon through
New York
But, honestly, who would have
supposed that a motorcycle contained
all that romance?

Half the cost of milkman's milk is the cost of
the daily delivery. We save all that. And, by
removing two-thirds of the water, we save in
shipping bulk. AS result, Van Camps Milk

Then there is no waste-no milk left over.

The Colorado river floods happened to be not as high as usual. Had such a flow come down the river as has been recorded at times in the past, there might have been a different story to tell

pears elsewhere in this issue.
 We have given this much detail | concerning the origin of the article
 which appears in this issue in order
 that our readers may clearly under
 stand that Mr. Cory is not an ob- server whose competence it would De difficult to equal anywhere for this particular task. but that he prepared the article at our urgent solicitation and wholly without prejudice or bias
 As for the article itself. our readers can study it and Colonei Ockerson'S
 reply and can form their OWE con
 Clusions. We may. however venture
 here to present a brief summary of
 the situation as we see 1t from our
 study of the two reports.
 Colonel Ockerson rests his defense
 of his methods on the ground that If
 he had been able to complete his line
 of levee during the low water season. the flow of the river would have been turned down the old channel and would have secured it out so that no serious flow of water would have been brought against the new levees. To use this seems inconclusive. From data at hand regarding the sudden flood rises which come down the Col oradO, who can be at all certain that the channel below would SCOUT out more rapidly than the flood could rise?
 Since no one can possibly be certain on this point. it would appear evident that any leVee built to confine the river should be so designated as t. prevent destructive flow along it's base. If this can take place at any point, the photographs which appear in this issue Cand which are testi mony that cannot be cOntroverted) in- Gicate that preaching is certain.
 Mir Ockcrson, himself. admits that there was lack of proper brush pro lection, and that the levee was preached in consequence. and he states that such protection was part of his plan; but why it was not made part of the original construc- ton he does not make clear His stated reason is that the matter of maintenance was interpreted as not coming under the authority of the ap- Tropriation or the negotiations. with Mexico" But surely this red tape re- striction should not prevent so con- structinS the levee originally. by gravel blanketing or otherwise as to be able tO endure flow against it's base. If that were the case the work i lad been have been abandoned before 1 it was begun.
 A word may be proper as to the | value of the work not washed away ] MT. Cory sets this at some S5G000 l Nh Ockerson at some $35O.0 900. The | difference arises from the fact that | Mir. Ookerson assumes that the levee | which he constructed can be repaired I and strengthened so that the yardage | of earth still remaining in it can be | saved. But if, as Mir. Corey states | there is a channel erOded along this | leVee by the floods of last spring. to :. attempt to reconstruct this levee would !! appear to be only throwing good mon | ey after bad.
 And this brings us to what is really | the most important question. what 1 should be the next step taken to give ! permanent protection to the important | interests involved? It must be under stood clearly that the federal govern | nent alone has the power to act The n
