Charles Christy, Merchants and Manufacturers association:
 st'I seriously believe that it is a ne- eessity. When the Southern Pacific had to establish shops in this vicinity, shey went out to Orange Wood for soft Water. If this is necessary for the Railroads. why is it not necessary for our drinking supply? It is really q wonderful opportunity to obtain a good safe water supply. We contemplate a city of from 5O0OO to 5000 people in the not distant future, and it is not too Soon to plan for an adequate water supply for the increased population 3tW. D, Goldsworthy, agent at consoli- dated ticket offices:
 tt"I think it is one of the most i'm portant things for Phoenix that has come up of late. A bountiful supply of pure soft water is one of the essentials for a growing city. The fact that the water is soft alone is a very important factor and should make a noticeable decrease in the cost of upkeep of all plumbing. It will be a great saving 10 the railways, furnishing pure water for their engines and eliminating scale .n the tubes of their boilers"
 Dr. Charles A. Ven der Veer, secre- tsry $. R. V. w. U. A.:
 Undoubtedly the city of Phoenix should have an ample supply of pure water for domestic purposes. and the project to secure such supply from the Verde river in the manner proposed should have the support of all citizens
  heart"
 William Gleason, mems furnishings;
 This is the biggest and best i'm provement ever offered to Phoenix | there is anything in the world that wt need it is pure water"

A- WefzTer, grOceT-
 T think it is the greatest thing Phoenix has had offered it in a long while. We've got to prepare for a city of 100000 in the next ten years, and water is the most essential thing for that growth. A town with a good wa ter system is bound to grow"

 T am heartily in favor of it. It is an excellent thing"
Arizona republican., 1919-07-25

Lee M. Fitzhugh, architect:
 From an engineers standpoint alone the saving to water heaters and boilers will be a very great advantage over the present water supply. The water we are using now has a decided deleterious effect on the interior mech anism of plumbing fixtures, particu- larly the metal work. The most harm is done by the sediment or scale which is deposited when the water is heated to a high temperature"

BY ELOTSE.

Vacation time is upon us and
almost every girl is, planning her
vacation wardrobe. OF course those
girls who are going back to the
farm" this summer, having acquir-
ed the habit from their one war
summer spent in the fields. will
have little trouble deciding what to
take on their trip this year. They
found out last year that bloonaers
and MILDLY blouses were the only
garments needed and, of course, Il
large sun hat and heavy shoes.
Those girls, however, who try the
sea shore and the mountains and
the summer hotels will plan a very
different wardrobe. She will want
suits and frocks for every occasion
from the early morning cross coun-
try hike to the formal hotel ball.
Her main energy will be given over
to the choosing of her sport clothes,
fer they still occupy large part
of the fashion stage.
