YESTERDAY AND TOMORROW

What does yesterday mean to you? All the mistakes, the
blunders, the faults, the pains and sorrows of yesterday, do
you dismiss them from your mind or do you brood over them?
Do you worry because you did or you didn't say or do a GER
tain thing yesterday, or do you realize that yesterday has gone
forever beyond your recall.
Tomorrow-what does that mean to you? with all its
possibilities, its possible burdens and adversities or its
possible joys and successes, it lies in the future, as impossible
for you to grasp as is yesterday, buried forever in the past.
With yesterday and tomorrow always beyond our reach,
there is left but one day of the week for us-today. Think OF
It. Just one day to do our work in; to accomplish all the big
things our ambition inspires us to. just one day in which to
do our bit of good in the world. Isn't it an inspiring thoughtf
Doesn't it make you want to put every bit OF AMBITION energy
and enthusiasm into your work-today?
For you does today hold burdens, trials and sorrows'
Have courage. It is Just for today. We can all stand trouble for
one dav. What drives folks mad is remorse for what happened
Yesterday or the dread of what tomorrow may disclose.
To journey but one day at a time, realizing the utter use

supersutions of Pregnancy

Here is a little advice from an
excellent booklet written by an
obstetrician. l am copying it ex-
actly because it is so clearly stated
and because coming from such IL
source it win do much TO set at rest
the absurd. but very real fears
which attack the wife carrying her
first child. Her own nervous condi-
ton makes II so much easier to be-
lieye everything that is told her, no
matter how unreasonable and fool
ish it would seem at other and
saner moments.
You cannot mark your baby af-
ter pregnancy begins. From the
time that the union (conception) OF
the male and female elements take
place the destiny of that particular
embryo is settled. Remember, that
from this point you furnish only
food and lodging to this little body.

by chance, a man meets a woman
he knows on the street and they
enter, say, a street car together, the
former is under no obligation to pay
both fares, nor should a woman ex-
pect it. Some men do insist on doing

should yield gracefully, but the bet

NEW ELKS MAGAZINE MAKES
DEBUT
National Publication of the B. z. o.
Elks Differs from other
Fraternal Organs

The first issue of new monthly
periodical, The Elks Magazine, has
Just made it's appearance. National
Publication of the BeDevolent and
Protective Order of Elks, published
under the direction of the Elks Ma
tional Memorial Headquarters Com
mission, the magazine begins its ca
reer with subscription Gil culation
of $4,000.
It's purpose ,as set forth in the
opening pages, is to provide me-
dunn through which the Grand
Lodge, governing body of the Order,
may bring home to each individual
member the fact that he belongs not
merely to a local lodge but to a
nationwide organization. BY keep
ing the members in touch with the
activities of their fellows in all parts
of the country and by vOicing the
principles of the Order in word and
picture The Elks Magazine is in
tended to inspire and promote that
spirit or unity which is the motive
force OF every fraternity.
Other similar bodies issue publ
cations devoted to this same purpose
but, for the most part, these are ex-
clusively fraternal in editorial con-
tent The Elks Magazine strikes a
new note in this particular. To
number just published: 1T is not
to be a mere bulletin or calendar of
events, but vigorous, high class,
literary and Sraternal journal-tO
contain matters of interest and in
formation to all the members of an
Elk household"
Beginning with a letter of God
speed from President Harding-who
by the way, is an Elk himself-and
a message from William w. Noun
tain, Grand Exalted Ruler, to the
Order at large, the first number
swings into fiction and timely arti-
cles, followed by features which,
though designed for Elk consump-
ton, are scarcely less interesting to
the outside reader. From the cover
painting, Flag Dag subject, right
through the magazine, one notes a
strong infusion of the spirit of pa
triOtism which is an integral part
of the Elk creed. The general ma
terial that helps to differentiate this
magazine from other fraternal pub
lications all bears we'll known sig
natures. Among the contributors
are Charles M. Schwab, Ben Ames
Williams, Albert Payson Terhune
William Almon Wolff and others
The whole magazine is lavishly il
lustrated.
For fifty-four years the Order of
Elks has stood for all that is best in
our National life. It's growth has
been steady and substantial and has

PROPOSED LEVEES FOR THE
COLORADO RIVER

WASHINGTON, June 2.-Hon. Carl
Hayden of Arizona has introduced a
bill in the House of Representatives
| which nrovides for an investigation
and report by Board of Army En-
gineers of the entire levee situation
on the Colorado River from above
| Fort Mohave to the Imperial Valley.
| This work is to be done under the
terms of the Flood Control Act and
! he report of the Engineers will
| therefore show what Federal interest
| is involved and what share of the
expense of levee construction should
be bourne by the United States.
The Committee on Flood Control
has been requested to grant an early
| hearing on the bill at which time
Mr.. Hayden expects to present a
statement of facts in support of the
measure based upon the need for
protecting the lands in Arizona. At
this hearing Congressman Phil y.
Swing, who is greatly interested in
the Hayden bill, will submit data
showing the need for flood control
works on the California side of the
river, an instance of which is the
serious damage that has been done
to the Palo Verde Valley by the re-
cent break in the levee.
| Both of the Congressman believe
! that regardless Of the construction
of the Boulder Canyon Dam of other
storage works higher up the stream
ii Will still be necessary to maintain
Il levee system in order to properly
protect the cultivated lands adjac-
| tn nd hot
For this reason the levee situation
should be studied by engineers of
the Army who are familiar with le-
wee construction on other streams.
The bill is as follows:
A Bill Authorizing the Secre-
| tary of War to cause a survey
to be made of the Colorado Riv-
| er below Bulls Head Rock with
| a view of controlling the flood
waters of said stream.
Be it enacted by the Senate
and House of Representatives
of the United States of America
in Congress assembled, That the
Secretary of War, in accordance
with the provisions of the flood
CoHtToI AcC approved Marcn L,
| 1917, is hereby authorized and
directed to cause a survey to be
made of the Colorado River be-
low Bulls Head Rock with
view to controlling the flood
waters of said stream by the
construction of levees for the
protection Of the Mohave VAL

ity, California: the Colorado
