We were criticized some time ago in
regard to an item appearing in this
column in regard to tampering with
the water supply. But the expected
has happened. Mountain Lake is short
of water. That is, the supply has been
curtailed on account of the freezing
of the water in the ground. The
springs are not being replenished, as
had been expected, from the late rain
and snow fall. The situation is SER
ious. Notices posted by the water
company states that unless the pres
ent supply is conserved, we will be
short of drinking water. within three
or four days. Of course, thawing
temperatures would halp a, lot. But
at this time of the year, at this alti-
tude, we would not base our hopes on
much warmer weather. We can all
help. Use only such water as may
be necessary. Do not let it run at
night. A frozen pipe is better than
no drinking water. We understand
the water company is prohibited
from pumping from the dam for
drinking purposes, for the reason
that it is not concreted. Therefore,
let each consider his neighbor. What
affects one affects all.

MONTHS OUTLOOK
 CHEERS MARKET
Pace SlackenS But Prices Dis
 play FirmnesS

New York, Sept. 3 CP,-The bond markets pace slackened again to- day. but prices of high grade issues observers who recall that September normally marks the beginning of a seasonal investment demand,
 Inquiry was we'll distributed. There was a continuation of yesterdays activity in the foreign group, where obligations of atin-American coun- tries again displayed some irregular ity, although the tendency was to- ward frmer quotations. Changes in the domestic rails were .mall, but favored the upside, while high grade utilities and the more active industrials also pointed normally higher.
 The undertone of money was a trife frmer because of bank with drawals. However, little disturbance in prevailing rates is expected and bankers anticipate that the easy money policy of the federal reserve will be maintained throughout the remainder of the year. Many invest ment bankers are pointing out that the signs favor a rising bond market in the next few months, although they are inclined to believe that the movement will be slow.
 There was small improvement in such rails as St. Paul 5s, Nickel Plate 5hs, Southern Railway As, Erie 5s and numerous others, but the demand was not aggressive and the gains were confined to small fractions. American Telephone obli- gations were firm. Oil company bonds attracted little attention and Standard of New Jersey 5s came within a shade of their years high. Skelly Oil 5ks, Pure Oil 51zs and Sinclair Pipe line 5s were bought in small blocks.
 Argentine 6s of 1857 changed hands in fair volume for a one point advance. Bolivia. Is and Sac Paulo Is also moved higher, but Chile 6s of 1861 yielded nearly a point. The German Republic Is rallied more than half a point. French bonds were steady.
 Convertible and stock warrant bonds moved narrowly, showing a confused trend in reflection of the ir- regularity of the share market. Pathe Is and General Theaters 6s were heavy in the earlier trading. Baltimore & Ohio 15s were firm.
 The United States government list was dull and almost unchanged.

(Professor of Astronomy, University
 of Illinois,
 Crbana, Ill, Sept. 3 Pt-One of the most remarkable regions of the entire heavens is displayed in the south in the early September eve ming.
 It is the region of the constella- ton Sagittarius, where the Milky Way is brightest Here the aggre- gations of stars are the most mag nificent they pile up in great cu- mulus masses like summer clouds.
 The circular course of the Milky Way is so much inclined to the equator that it has quite different positions in the sky at different seasons. At nightfall in Septem- Der it passes directly overhead from northeast to southwest.
 In the vicinity of the Northern Cross, now near the zenith, the Milky Way divides into two parallel streams. The western branch fades out in the constellation Ophiuchus, while the eastern branch continues on southward. growing brighter and gathering into great star clouds.
 Farther south, in Scorpio, the western branch appears again. The two branches unite near the South ern Cross below the southern hori- zon.
 The finest star clouds of the Milky Way are the great Sagittari- us cloud and the Scutum cloud not far above it. These are almost di- rectly in the south early in the eve ming on the first of September.
 Moonless skies are required for the best views of these objects. On September 1 the moon, near the first quarter, is in this part of the sky.
 Sagittarius contains the familiar Milk Dipper formed by six stars. The bowl of this dipper lies to the left of the great star cloud. The handle extends above the cloud.
 This constellation marks the di- rection of the center of our stellar system The bright star clouds of the region belong to the nucleus of the system containing probably as many as 5o,ooo,ooo.oo0 starA

TRADING 0N CURB
 LACKING DECISION
Prices Held in Narrow Range
 Spectators Confused

New York, Sept. 3 [P) - The curb market lacked decision today and prices held within an exceedingly narrow range. Speculative sentiment was confused, with the result that moves in either direction failed to accomplish much that was suggest i've of a trend.
 Trading, however, was in slightly larger volume and the undertone appeared to be firm. Sporadic at tempts to depress prices met with little response and traders were con- tent to let the market drift.
 Ford of England was brought for ward as a trading favorite, rallying fractionally in response to pool ac- emulation. Ford of Canada "A'' recovered part of yesterdays loss on short covering. Anglo Chilean Nj trate was particularly weak, drop ing more than points on moderate liquidation. Dealings in the indus trials and specialties, as a whole, were thin General Baking was ac- tive and slightly higher. Copper Ressemer gained a couple of points and Heyden Chemical made a little progress.
 Utilities were sluggish and irregu- lar, making unimportant changes, Electric Bond & Share was farily steady around yesterdays final price.
 Investment holding company stocks retained their recent firm ness. There was a small demonstra- ton in Goldman Sachs trading which crossed 20, but otherwise the group was quiet.
 Oil and natural gas shares were neglected. A one point rise in Houston Oil of Texas was a feature.
 Call money renewed on the curb at 2I5 per cent
