FEW REALLY UGLY PEOPLE
Many There Are Who May Be unat-
tractive, but Not a Lot Defn-
iteIy Unlocking.

Looking for beauty in the faces and
forms passed on the street is such a
fixed habit with people in general that
it was bit startling to hear of man
In London who was looking for some
one ugly-tla ugliest female. in fact.
that he could find This man was an
American theatrical man and he de-
sired the ugliest woman TO contrast
her in a production with a girl said
to be beautiful.
The Snowman found his ugiieSt
woman after looking over eight con-
teStants. The prize winning clock
stopper was thirty-two years old and
\ music teacher. She entered the CON
test because her mother told her
there would be no harm in trying"
On winning she at once insisted on
taking a stage name, as she did not
want all the neighbors to know about
it." The runner-up in the contest,
whose name was not given out, had
an unfortunate nose and an "out-
size" in mouths.
The contest really was of concern
to the theatrical producer, but it
served TO impress upon Londoners in
general the old truth that few people,
after all, are really ugly. that every
individual looks good to some one.
Two people, who came upon the adj
Vertisement of the ugly contest, began
to amuSe themselves in the genial way
of human nature by examining their
friends and acquaintanees to discover
which of them had the best claim to
the job.
To their disappointment, says a
writer in the London Telegraph, they
could not think of anybody, not even
their pet abomination, who was, con-
sidered impartially, very ugly. Plain
people-oh. yes, hosts of them; dis
agreeable-looking people-quite a lot:
silly-looking people-any amount; but
people definitely and conspicuously
ugly-not one.

expense to get the water out. We do not know how many peaches go to make up a pound of peaches either in their natural state or as dried peaches; but we do know that the wholesale price of dried peaches in New York is 3 cents per pound, and it looks to us as though buying nat ural peaches at two cents per pound and selling them in the dried form at 23 cents per pound left the way open between Oregon and New York for a number of business men, to be nicely cared for. We cannot see any reason why anybody on the road could be as anxious about the weath- CT as the poor fellow to whom a frost may mean ruin.
 On the Strawberry Valley project in Utah $40 cars of peaches were marketed in 1919, and in the same season 100 cars of pears at $500 per car, 60 cars of prunes at $750 year, and 200 cars of apples at $500 per year. The total value of the fruit crop to the growers is estimated to have been $500, ,00o.
 The Yakima project, in wishing ten, produced in 1913 a trainload of fruit twenty-two miles long, worth 1000 ,o0o ;the Yakima apples are fa- nous in all parts of the country. The district also produces large quantt- ties of soft fruits, potatoes, hay. and pork. At the Okanagan project, in Washington it is estimated that a single highway bridge sustained dur ing the season the carriage of 1000 carloads of apples inbound to the station, with 500 carloads of box shocks, lumber, coal, and wheat out hOund over the same bridge.
 This load was so heavy as to re- quire the services of two traffic of icers, one at each end of the bridge, to keep the traffic spread out suffi- ciently to maintain safety.
 Great and wonderful as have been the irrigation projects already de veloped in the Far West, we presume that they are as nothing compared with works yet to be undertaken and successfully carried to completion in those regions. The sources of the great rivers of the West-the Rio Grande, Arkansas, Platte, Missouri. Yellowstone, Snake, Columbia, Sand Colorado are far up among the Mountains, and most of their waters come from the melting of those snows.
 Great as would be the expense and the difficulties encountered, there is nothing impossible in the thought that nearly all the waters of those rivers may yet be diverted so that every part of the basins which they traverse shall receive a due propor- tion of the 1ife-f1oods. This would not quite, but almost, cause the Great American Desert to disappear.
 The actual disappearance of the Great Desert, and of all deserts, will surely come about in the Golden Age, in many instances possibly in most instances-by the gradual work of reclamation, but in other instances by such changes in the climate as the Lord sees will be best calculated to bring the desired result
 The snowfalls in the mountains can usually be depended upon as suf- hcient to provide reasonably full streams throughout the season; but

COAT CUT FROM BACK
London Woman 10 Victim Of Darinu
Theft

One Of the most daring forms Of
stealing furs conceivable has been
practiced recently in the West End,
London, where in broad daylight the
back Of a woman's sable coat, valued
at 5000, was cut out as it's wearer
was looking into shop window.
The woman felt herself being
crushed in a crowd by foreign-look-
ing man. She tried to shake him of,
but the crowd was too great. On
reaching home she found that almost
the whole back from the shoulders
down had been cleverly cut out with a
very sharp fur knife.
Another woman who had stopped to
look into a shop window had her coat
slit in an attempt to cut away the
back. but she felt the thief breathing
uncomf0rtably close to her and left
the shop window sooner presumably
than he had expected, thus saving the
garment from being ruined. {.
