SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.

Journeyings.
We are journeying through the weari-
some heat
To a land that is fair as a dream.
Where the fluttering snowhakes will
fall at our feet
While the icicles glisten and CLEAN;
To the land where the shadows bring
silence and sleep
BY the river all frozen and still;
So song we will sing and our courage
we'll keep
And We'll journey along with will.
And when we have come to the wonder
full place,
We will look through the window
and see
The pictures Of silver the frost loves to
trace
With a touch so fantastic and free.
The ferns haunting fine and the flowers
30 fair
will bid us unregretfully sigh
And well thankfully take up the journey
from there
To return to the Summertime sky.

A census will cost a great deal.
Commercial experts are pretty well
agreed that first costs are of little con-

Calvin Coolidge was once quoted As
saying he regarded going fishing as a
pastime for small boys. Nevertheless,
he likes fishing. 1t Is not at all sur
prising to find a man glad, now and
then, to enjoy himself as completely
as a small boy Jet ont Of school.

CLUB MEMBE RS
WOULD MEDIATE
ON RIVER ROW
Newly Formed Yuma Con-
servatiOn Body COnfers
With District.

Believing their organization
would be an excellent medium of
intervention and a possible and
well as logical Intermediary be-
tween the California and Arizona
Colorado river commissions, four
members Of the newly formed Yuma
Conservation club met with the di-
rectors of the Imperial Irrigation
district yesterday afternoon here.
The four officials, Messrs. Girls
well, Cunning, Robertson and Ing
ham chose the latter for their
spokesman although all of them ex-
pressed their views.
The Yuma club, patterned after
the American Conservation club
here, was organized recently to fol
low along in the same relative CON
nection with the Yuma Irrigation
district as the local club does with
the Imperial district.
They, as a body, however, do not
agree with the positions taken
either by the Arizona or California
commissions, according to their
spokesman statement yesterday
but are of the opinion their peculiar
and particular position in the
scheme Of things places them at an
advantage to get the views from
both sides and thus intermediate,
resulting in the cleaning up of the
present up-in-arms situation.
The Yuma Irrigation district is
in "A position analogous to the I'm
perial Irrigation district. Ingham
stated yesterday, in that what bene-
fits one district, benefits the
other. However, the rest of Arizona
is not so situated, and the Arizona
commission is occupied chiefly with
the thought of electrical energy to
be developed as the result of build
ing the Boulder dam.
Power Will Aid Arizona
1t is understood that mem bers of
the Yuma club, who met with the
Arizona commission recently.
brought to their attention the fact
that power developed along the
canals, especially the American
project, viii give Arizona much of
the power which that state now de
mands.
We don't agree with the stand
of either the California or Arizona
commission but we do think there
IS some middle ground and are of
the opinion we, as a club can act
in the position of MEDIATOR Ing
ham stated in part.
The members of the Yuma clul
arrived here in time for lunch yes
terday and then met with the I'm
rcrial directors at p. m. They
were IN session until about
clock.
The report Of +. w. Greer, of the
district, ON the position taken by
Dr. Elwood Mead, chief of recIama
tion service, given him in Denver
some 10 days ago in an exclusive
Interview, will be presented at tn,
next meeting Of the board here
Tuesday morning.
1t is expected, according to r. IL
Mclvcr, secretary of the district
Grccr's report will probably ado
much to the public understanding
OF the building Of Boulder dam and
the ali-American canal.

AGE 40 is the "turning

Kidneys excretc 1870 OF
