they may be examined and an ap-
Proclamation made Of the acreage
charges necessary to cover the cost OF
the proposed works, it would be i'm
possible for US to decide whether or
not we can cooperate in power devel-
opment.
We would prefer, then, that the in
vestigations be continued to compile
ton at the expense Of the irrigation
districts now contributing, and that
the matter of the nature and extent
of participation to be guaranteed by
the several district saffected be there
after considered and determined.
In our judgment, Mr.. Davis, It is
more vitally necessary now than ever
before that that a definite plan for
development of the lower Colorado
river basin must be decided upon, and
that congress must assist by appro-

belonging to the lands which pay for
the construction of the works, and the
proceeds derived from the sale of such
by-product should be applied to the re-
duction of cost charges to be paid by
the owners of the lands contributing
thereto. We believe that all matters
relative to the sale and disposition of
power may, under this theory, be
properly left for determination to the
secretary of the interior or other gov
ernmental department or agency
which shall have the administrative
charge of the property.
However, since the investigation of
the oulder canyon storage dam site
has not yet cen completed and it cam
not now be determined whether such
site will be found to be feasible, nor
to what extent it can be UTILIZED for
the development of hydro-electric
power, it seems to US that 1t would be
extremely difficult at this time to
consider or determine the relative pro-
portions of the total cost which might
properly be assigned to storage, flood
control and power development.
Until the Investigations are COM
pleted and cost estimates based there.

The music section of the Woman's
10000 Club held their regular BIZ
monthly meeting Tuesday afternoon in
Davis hall. The program was varied
and pleasing. Mrs. T. l.. Stewart gave
a biography of Beethoven, which thor
oughly covered all the important anc
interesting events of his life.
Mrs. Fox sang "Adelaide," by Bee
thoven, song which truly portrays
the style of composition adopted by
the most revered of composers.
Mrs. Barnes contributed two songs,
"Tu Hobarera," by Granados, an ex-
hilarating Spanish number, and
Loves in My Heart" by Woodman.
Mrs. Bates sang "The Last Rose of
Summer" one of the rare old favor
ties.
Miss Crosby, who has a promising
voice and is pupil Of Mrs. Fox, gave
two numbers, Dainty Dorothy" b!
De Koven, and 81 Know Lovely Gar

Mrs. Walker closed the program
witt an impressive little talk on Bee
thoyen, which was very enjoyable.

and and offer of "participation'in cost
and interest in proportion to benefits
received" was developed by some Of
those present, who were not land own
, ers adjacent to the Colorado river
Ealong lines in which we do not concur
We hold that it is necessary to
build storage dam, at oulder canyon
site for the purpose,s fundamentally,
OF impounding and controlling suf-
ficient amount of water to permanent
ly and adequately irrigate all lands
below that point, bot hpublic and pri-
vate, which are susceptible of econom-
ic reclamation by the use of such Wa
ters. The storage Of such waters and
their daily discharge under control
will very largely decrease the element
of danger of loss to lands resulting
from flood and overflow waters of
the Colorado river, and hence is to be
reckoned as an additional benefit ac-
cruing to lands irrigated from stor-
age. Some lands, by reason of loca-
ton with respect to the channel of the
Colorado river, will be benefited more
than others by the lessening of the
danger of food and overflow, just as
other lands which are not now irrigat-
ed, may be more greatly benefited by
storage and the development of sup
ply of water for irrigation purposes.
These and similar questions. which
should determine the cost per acre to
be paid by lands benefiting by works
to be undertaken on the lower Colo
RADIO river, should be arbitrated and
acreage charges fixed by the secrc-
tary of the interior. The government
of the United States should contribute
in proportion to benefits so derived.
to the extent of it's public lands served
by such works.
If it is found to be possible and ex-
pedient to develop hydro-electric pow
at the storage dam site, without
seriously interfering with the primary
use of the structure for storage and
flood control purposes, such power

THOMAS MEIGHAN IN
SCREEN VERSION OF
"CIVILIAN Clothes
Star Has Role of Captain Who Turns
Butler to Re-win His
SnObbish Wife

Thomas Melghan's first Paramount
starring vehicle is "Civilian Clothes"
produced by Hugh Ford from Thonp-
sen Buchanan's popular stage play of
the same name. The picture will be
shown at the Palace theater for two
deys, commencing Thanksgiving day.
The story concerns an overseas cap
tain wwho morries pretty American
society girl in France. She is at
tracted to him chiefly because he is
so handsome in his uniform. Later,
after she returns to America, comes
news of his death. She has renewed
her acquaintance with another admir-
er when her husband, very much alive,
comes to her home. Disappointed at
his unromantic appearance in civilian
clothes, which show atrocous taste in
their cut and color, she snu5s him.
The gallant ex-captain tkercupon Sc
cures a job as butler in his " fe's
household with the avoweG puEpose Of
teaching her lesson in democracy.
The results are amusing in the eX-
treme, and, of course, the story ends
happily.
| Mr.. Meighan's supporting company
includes Martha Mansfield, the beau
tiful heroine of "Dr. Jekyll and Mr.
HYDE" and other screen notables.
"Baby Nine
Beginning Thursday evening and
running the balance of the week, Muir
phys Comedians will present one of
the funniest comedies ever written,
"Baby Nine"
| Written by Margarete Mayo, it be-
came famous from coast to coast. 1t
made Marguerite Clark famous, and
today stands as one of three standard
comedies of the American stage.
If you think that due to the low
price Of cotton and the high price of
living you have forgotten how to
laugh, just come and see "Baby Mine

One Shall I Marry"

In praising "Hitchin' Posts" the
film production at the Topic theater
in which Frank Mayo is starred, one
must not forget to give credit to the
unnamed person who selected the To-
cations for the photoplay. The beau

valley is to be averted. You know

Of haard, uncertainty and extreme

Men of Mystery
Investigate the
Theft of Cars

Two autos that were moved from
position by persons not entitled to
use them two weeks ago, have put
some smart alecks on a black list
The men of mystery who are max
ing it their business to take prompt
action in cases of theft of autos, were
puzzled by developments when men,
bers of the family took possession of
cars driven by somebody else, and
yet not admitting that they did it.
That left the question of attempted
theft by somebody else, and was an
attempt to throw the men of mystery
off the track.
Checking up from day to day on
the facts in the case, the truth was
arrived at, and not only We're the
cars recovered promptly but the mis-
creants will wake up one of these
days in as much disappointment as
the boy who was about to pick up
purse in the road and found it was
jerked away out of his reach. Ev-
cry young fellow has some sort OF
purse in his mind that he hopes to
acquire at future date, and when
he is about to reach the prize, this
case of fooling with an auto will con-
front him and the men of mystery
will hold the whip hand.
A youth may be ducked forty
times in river for actually steal
Ing car, but for taking his dads
or his brothers car and then denying
it while people are hunting for the
thief, is an offense which there is
another remedy for. That young
fellow will want something one of
these days worse than he wants long
life, and he will not get it-not till
he has learned his lesson and taken
his punishment of a kind that will
get next to his as keen as bee
sting.

IF WE KNEW

If we knew the cares and crosses
Crowding round our neighbor's way
If We knew the little losses
Sore!y grievous day by day,
Would we then so often chide him
For the lack of thrift and gain
Casting DER his life shadow,
Leaving on his heart a stain?
If we knew she silent story
Quivering through the heart Of pain
Would our womanhood dare doom
them
Back to haunts of guilt again?
Life hath many tangled crossing;
Joy hath many a break of woe;
And the cheeks taar-washed seem
whitest-
This the blessed angels know.
Let US reach into our bosoms
For the key to others lives,
And, with love to erring nature.
Cherish good that still survives;
So that when our disrobed spirits
Soar to realms of light again
We may say: Dear Father judge us
AS we judged our fellowmen.

Help me to live so that l can lie
down at night with a clear conscience,
without gun under my pillow, and
undaunted by the faces of those to
whona | have brought pain.
Grant, | beseech thee, that | mo,
earn my meal ticket on the square
and in doing so may not stick gaff
where it does not belong.
Deafen me to the jingle of tainted
money and the rustic of unholy skirts
Blind me to the faults of the Other
fellow, but reveal to me my own.
Guide me so that each night when
/ look across the dinner table at my
wife, who has been blessing to me,
| will have nothing to conceal.
Keep me young enough to la Ugh
with my children and 90 lose myself in
their play.
And then when comes the smell of

ordinarily ordered their lime at the
time they wished to apply it, in order
to save time and work by including
hauling from the railroad station ana
applying to the land in one operation.
Under present conditions, says the
United States Department of Agricul,
ture, lime manufacturers are no Ion
ger able to adjust their business t.
this practice. Owing to shortage of
labor in their own plants and trans
portation difficulties, last-minute de-
liveries can no longer be made with
certainty.
For these reasons the Department
of Agriculture urges that spring
needs be anticipated and that orders
for lime be placed at once. Dealers
and manufacturers should have ao-
vance information as to farmers
needs SO that orders can be combined
and car space used to the best advan-
tage. Delay in orderNlg may result
IN failure to obtain the lime until too
late.
1t is, moreover, the desire of the
Railroad Administration that the sea-
son for delivery of lime, which has
heretofore been from March to Nav.
be extended to include the period from
January to May, in order to relieve,
as far as possible, the existing car
shortage
