SALUTE OUR CITY DADS!

The forecast made just before the recent city
election that the Lavayea-CareyRice slate together
with the holdover officers of the city government
would make ideal combination has already been
vincated by the action of that body of in reduc
ing water rates.
No time wasted in fowery speeches or lost
motion. These gentlemen got down to brass tacks i'm
nediatey and after deciding the most urgent step
cessary, did not wait for regular meeting to
put it over Instead they called special session in
order to get action quickly possible and Ell
Centros lawns and trees from the ravages of the
mer heat.
Their prompt action in voting for a 10 to 20 per
cent reduction in water prices will make this rate
effective within a short time and thus avoid the pa
thetic dearth of green things throughout the
months. Every years dozens of local residents have
permitted their lawns trees and shrubbery to die be-
they have felt that the water rates too
brilliantly high to be able to giveheir gardens the
water they needed to keep them green and attractive
This reduction likewise shows in part, the wisdom
of voting the 100000 water bond issue. These city
fathers would have dared reduce water rates if
they had not known with that better and
efficient water plant is going to be made possible
during the next few months by the installation of
up to date machinery and equipment.
So say again. hats off to the new city council!
They have made fine start and we believe will put
over memorable administration embracing many
worthwhile achievements.

'oform must be used" DR.. Smith
explained.
mot Uniformly Successful"
Several Of the New York hos
pitals have adopted the 'synergistic
analgesia.' but we have not seen it
uniformly successful.
I'm drugs like ether. and chloro.
form and nitrous oxide there is
less difference in individual reac-
tons. It is because Of this that
we have not adopted DR.. Gwath-
mey'S method--simply that many
patients did not react successfully. I"
Another new method used in ma.
ternity cases which minimizes the
pain Of childbirth without the dan.
ger to mother and child was reconl-
mcnded to the American Medical
Association by DR.. H. T. Cooke, Of
Los Angeles.
He defined 1t as regional nerve.
blocking and declared it superior
to all other anesthesia in that it
permits the patient to remain con-
Scious.
Some. years ago. he explained. It
was hoped that the same objective
could be obtained through twilight

conscious; but it seemed, neverthe.
less, to block muscle action, as do
the other methods OF anesmthesia.

Grow White Flowers.
To bring out the brilliancy OF
the various flowers we viii grow
white flowers here and there, and
win spend no money and give no
room for nagenta-colored flowers,
and keep the reds down to
minimum.
II our means permit we viii
place garden furniture, bird paths,
and sun dial in our picture. A
pool? Where shall we put a pool?
One OF the rock groups will make
a fine background for q small
pool; we will just dig out in
front Of It and let the pool tut
out into the lawn, or larger one
can be made by connecting. two
rock groups and lay other rocks
about even with the sod. This
sort or pool will have q very nat.
ural appearance and reflect the
foliaget flowers, and rocks about
1t and be open on the lawn side.
All that has been written above
appertainS to the back garden

OF architecture Of our home will
have much to do with the front
planting If the house IL OF the
low, concrete mission type we win
place an unglazed terra Gotta oil
jar near the front door, plant a
broad-leaved cactus against the
house and an old goldracaena palm
near the oil Jar. A COARSE gravel
walk with such a planting win be
more effective than cement one.
II our house stands high on
account Of having a basement, we
VIII bring 1t down to earth by
planting shrubs at the Foundation.
We win choose the shrubs more
for their foliage and variety Of
shades Of green than for their
flowers. and use care not to plant
as a shrub something destined to
become a tree in a few years.
