FWhy shouldn't the guests write

shouldn't he consult your convenience

SIDE TALKS
Are We Less Hospitable?
BY RUTH CAMERON.

Are we. as a generation, less hos

That question came up the other
day when q friend of mine resented
it because a cousin whom she had
invited to her home appeared bringing
with her q friend who was a complete
stranger TO her hostess. The hostess
had comfortable accommodation for
one guest but not for two and the UNI
expected addition made q good deal OF
trouble for her.

Some timcs they were just distant
cousins and often they were people
that she cared nothing for, and some
of them were really disagreeable, but
she never thought of com planning. He
says people expected that sort of thing
in those days.
There's a Reason.

3 DAYS MORE
MAY FIN IS \
WEIR P|L|NG
Only Twenty More Bents to
Drive Is the Optimistic
Report Given This Morn
ing by General Manager
Clarke.

With good luck attending the work
of driving piles for the weir at Ham
Ions Heading, the work should be
finished in three days more, it was
estimated at the District offices here
today.
Chief Engineer c.. X. Clarke report
ed this morning that there were only
twenty more bents to drive. Three
pile drivers are at work-one on the
Arizona side, another on the Cainor-
mia side and the other repairing the
five bents which were torn out by
wind last Sunday. On the Arizona
side, however, where excellent pro-
gress was being made up until yes
terday, only one bent was added yes
terday. This leads to the suspicion
that something has gone wrong there.
'althouph the general manager has not
reported any trouble. There are now
thirty-one bents on the Arizona side.
The diversion at Hanlon's Heading
showed another drop today. Only
I3712 second-feet were being diverted
this morning. Yesterday 1920 second
feet were coming in.
The general manager in his report
to Secretary McIver this morning said
things are going along smoothly and
that Il shortage will be averted. 1t
is known, however, that one of the
chief faults of the general manager is
his optimistic attitude. Those who
are inclined to take an independent
view of the situation believe it will
not be possible now to avert a short
iage. Since last Sunday the Valley
has lost nearly 1000 second-feet Of
water. Whit the best of luck, the
pile driving for the weir will not be
finished for two or three days more,
so that work of dumping rock can pro-
Icced. BY the time the rock begins
ito raise the water level the chances
ARE that the head at Hanlon's Head
ing will have dropped considerably
more.
There is demand now for hasty ac-
'tion. There is only one way to catch
up with the losses of the last week,
and that is to bring up the head Of
water TO Il few feet above normal. Un-
less this is done ut once, the river
will get so low that it will be impos-
sible to catch up until next winter..
