U. OLE u NOTES

The aurora borealis seen during
the past week was explained by Prof
d. r. Allen in charge of astronomy
at the University of Utah as being
due to magnetic disturbances caused
by the sun spots which are so prom
inent just now. The electric waves
affect the upper layers of rarified
air producing the boreaIis, according
to Prof. Allen. Experiments with
the light waves of the borealis prove
that extremely rarified air extends
as high as five or six hundred miles
above the earth
In addition to viewing the sun
spots, caused by disturbances on the
surface of the sun and which are VIC
lent just now, the observatory is also
being used to study the planets Jul
Jupiter and Saturen. The moon and
the Messier Thirteen cluster. At the
quarters the surface features of the
moon stand out in relief because the
light rays strike 1t sIantingIy. This
is an especially good time to view
the planet also because the satellites
are now visible. Saturn, when seen
with satellyites and the rings partly
toward the earth is one of the most
majestic sights of the sky, according
to Professor Allen who is also en-
thusiastic in describing Messier Thir-
teen which is globuIar cluster of
30 200 stars. On a clear night only
$500 stars can be seen without opti-
cal aids and In this mass there are
$4,000.
The University observatory is used
for class work and is also opened to
visitors on certain nights of the week

fine showing? No wonder that our
assessment levy amounts to thirty
mills. A just assessment would
show nearer 100000 worth of
property and il it was made the levy
would be about twelve mills. We
would not have any moro money to
pay into the county than at present
and how much more of an induce.
ment it would DO to prospective in
vestors and homo seekers.

OUT OF LEAGUE
AMBASSADOR HARVEY DECLARES
100000 MAJORITY DECIDED
AGAINST PEACE PACT.
AMERICA IN WAR FOR ITSELF
I'VE Entered the War Solely to Save
the United States" He Tells
Assembled Pilgrims.

London.-George Harvey, United
States ambassador, announced at a
dinner to the Pilgrims that the Amer
ican Government would have nothing
whatever to do with the League Of
Nations.
There still remains the impression
that America will yet be beguiled into
the league" Mr.. Harvey said. This
is utterly absurd. The United States
decided against the league by a major
ity Of 100000. The present Govern
ment will not have anything whatso-
ever to do with the league, with any
commission or committee appointed
thereby, or directly, indirectly, openly,
or furtively responsible thereto"
Mr.. Harvey also discussed the
motives which, in his opinion, brought
the United States into the World War.
He referred to the oft-repeated declar-
alton that America entered the war to
rescue humanity, or to save England,
Italy and France.
I'VE entered the war solely to save
the United States, and most reluctant
ly and laggardly at that" he said. 1--WE
were not too proud to fight, whatever
that means. We were afraid not to
fight. That Is the real truth Of the
matter. We came forward and helped
to shorten the war, that's all"
Col Harvey portrayed President
Harding as determined to uphold Am
erican rights, but as not Jealous of
others. He reiterated that the Presi-
dent intends to play full part in the
worlds pursuit Of peace without, how
ever, becoming an international med
dler. He announced that the United
States will not interfere with affairs
that do not concern the United States.
Mr.. Harvey's address attracted espe-
cial interest, coming, as the first au-
thorized expression Of the American
viewpoint, at time when the prob
able attitude of the United States to-
ward the tense political situation in
Europe is arousing lively speculation.

WANT COLORADO BACK WHERE
 BELONGS
LBy Associated Press)

FL CENTRIC, Cal. Sept. 14-The
 Colorado river must be put back
 where it belongs and kept there. if the Imperial Irrigation District Is
 to thrive in the future, according to F. N. Cronholm, chief engineer and
 general manager for the district At
 present, the southern position of the Colorado, from a few miles below
 Yuma to where the waters enter
 the gulf of California, forms delta
 similar in character to that of the
 Nile When the river rises, it leaves
 the small cuts and channels that seam the delta lands, and wanders
 all over Lower California. sometimes. threatening to break back along the
 irrigation system into the Imperial
 Valley. and always causing the land
 owners anxious hours and large ex-
 penditures for protection.
 NJ. Cronholm told a recent meet
 ing of the irrigation district direct ors that it would cost about S2.S0O-l co to stop this trouble His plans contemplate strengthening the riyerI channel. definging it so clearly that it will stop the river waters. and making assurance doubly sure byl constructing additional protective levees. At a cost of $275.OO he would also divert the river into PesCadero basin. strengthen the three existing levees which lie between the prin- cipal streams and the vally lands, and would make a complete land and aerial survey of the whole Coll Orado river system for the future guidance of flood fighters.
 The total cost of these changes would be about three million dollars. Mir Cronholm estimated. That is al lot of money. he said. but as the annual bill for preventing river rav-l ages and repairing flood damages is close to ten per cent Of that fig ure it would pay eventually and inI the mean time would end uncertain

 KANSAS CITY. Mo, Sept. II. - Westward the tide of automobile tra, vel rolls its way.
 Automobile tourists from central and midwest states have distributed over S4,OOO,OOO over the west this summer, it is estimated, while the east has had but little of this tourist travel.
 And the east, with it's wonderful network of state highways, it's great cities. its famout Atlantic coast beaches and even with New York City as lodestone, asks How come?"
 Out of the west comes the answer in two short words-AUTO CAMPS.
