speech-it is all such plain sailing
to them that they look on with a
kind of compassion on mans
laundering ignorance Of the sex.
That is why a woman who is popu-
lar among men is so very often
quite the other thing with women.
The poor deluded men who take
her precisely at the valuation she
intends them to cannot compre-
bend why her own sex cannot see
her many lovely qualities, and, i'm
their blindness. they complacently
set down the reason 10 jealousy. The
real fact is that the woman can't
deceive women. try as she may.
They read her through and through,
and estimate her accordingly.
That men never have fully under
stood women Is plain TO any one
who has made a study of the male
novelists' works. Even the fore
most names in the profession have
this one point of weakness. Their
women are admirably painted from
the outside. They are charming
very often, and attractive. and full
Of grace. They move and walk
about the stage and conduct them
selves in "A life-like manner enough
but any woman can see that, after

mics; they lack the touch of Pro-
methian fire that would make them

DO YOU OWN YOUR
IRRIGATION WATER /?
Irrigation Lawyer Talks On Vested
Water Rights.

The determination of vested water
rights was discussed by President
Mathonihah Thomas recently elected
president of the newly formed Utah
Irrigation and Drainage Congress be-
for that body at its annual conven-
ton just held at the Utah Agricul-
tural college. The pioneers estab-
lished three things in their settle
ment of the water question in Utah.
said Mr.. Thomas. They established
the ideas of the state ownership Of
water. state control of water. And
insisted on the beneficial and econ
omic use of water. All rational ir-
rigation legislation must be based
upon these three principles, and we
must come back to them before we
can expect any permanent solution of
the water question in Utah.
The farmer cannot own a certain
amount of water in an irrigation
ditch, said Mr.. Thomas. Not until
that water is actually being applied
on his land does he own it. The
farmer really owns the use of the
water, rather than specified
amount of water. He is entitled to
only so much water as is necessary
to grow successfully the particular
kind of crops he is raising on the
particular kind of land he owns. The
use of any more water is a criminal
waste. The important question: is,
How much use have you made of
your water?" The duty of water
must be determined in Utah at great
expense, possibly by complete sur
vey of all kinds of soils in the state
and the varying amounts of water
they need.
The average irrigation company in
Utah today is not efficiently organ
lied, stated Mr.. Thomas. Business
principles applied to canal manage
ment, and proper cooperation on the
part of the farmers will do much to
clear the way for a solution of irri-
cation problems here.
