A DEFINITE PRICE DEFINITE AMOUNT OF WATER There is no speculation, no doubt, about the cost of water to be brought to Metropolitan Water District by the Colorado River Aqueduct. There is no specific quantity of water that will be brought to these Southland cities when Colorado cities. Anaheim now, and with Colorado river water available, will never pay as high cities. The rate in Oakland is now 26 cents per 100 cubic feet; Berkeley, 27 cents. With Colorado river water available, Anaheim water will always be half land, Berkeley, San Francisco or Alameda. We must build the Aqueduct We must build the Aqueduct six months. Therefore, work on the Metropolitan Water District Aqueduct should 6. Six years of careful engineering study have been devoted to the Colorado been selected, preliminary work has been completed and the legal questions have to start actual construction work.

The Aqueduct to be built by the $220,000,000 bond issue will deliver water Funds from the bond issue will be used to construct the following works: (1) At or near Upper Parker Canyon—150 miles below Hoover Dam; (2) Main line off to a terminal reservoir near the cities in the District; (3) Large terminal reservoir that will deliver water from reservoir to each city in the Metropolitan Water District. NO BONDS---NO AQUEDUCT The U.S. government is building the Hoover Dam in the Colorado river expressly to help the states within the river basin to obtain a dependable water supply. To get our portion of the supply into Southern California, the Aqueduct is NECESSARY.

Southern California rapidly is exhausting its present water supplies. 2. More than 90 percent of our water this summer is being pumped from rapidly dropping wells. Less than 10 percent. Christian Science Lesson-Sermon Chief Jesus' statement: "Heaven on earth pass away, but my words remain in the lesson-sermon on Saturday." Sunday is all branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. The response we reach presents porosity and includes Jesus' world. Another good fruit but a correlative passage from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy says, "The three great verities of Spirit, omnipotence, omnipresence, omniscience—Spirit possessing all power, filling all space, constituting all Science—contradict forever the belief that matter can be actual." Low Rates to Fair at Pomona According to R. B. Harrington, local agent for the Motor Transit Lines, he has just received instructions authorizing special reduced round-trip excursion rates which will be in effect to the Los Angeles county fair to be held at Pomona during the 10 days and nights, September 18 to 27, inclusive. "The Los Angeles county fair this year has been combined with the Southern California fair formerly held at Riverside and will be a grand ten million dollar harvest fiesta," remarked Mr. Harrington, and further added that the fastest trotting and running horses of the West will furnish daily thrills on ueduct NOW, because 1. Southern California rapidly is exhausting its present water supplies. 2. More than 90 percent of our water this summer is being pumped from rapidly dropping wells. Less than 10 percent comes from flowing streams—because these streams are dry, or almost dry. 3. We must secure Colorado river water to maintain the population, homes and factories we NOW have in Southern California—to say nothing of future growth. 4. It will require six or possibly eight years to complete the Colorado river aqueduct. We must start work immediately if we hope to have the job finished in time. 5. Our Metropolitan Water District has contracted to take water from Boulder Canyon reservoir after the dam is finished. Our aqueduct is a larger job than the Dam; it will require a longer time to complete. And yet, work on the Dam has been under way for more than district Aqueduct should be started without delay, led to the Colorado River Aqueduct project—the route has legal questions have been answered—now all is in readiness Colorado River Water year, or 250 inches continuous flow. c—This amount sufficient for city of 30,000 population without using local supply. 3.

"A gorgeous Moorish decorative motif this year sets off the dazzling feature displays in the mammoth exposition building and each day Fanchon and Marco will present a gloriously colorful world premier "Fair Idea" with 125 beautiful dancing girls. In fact, the fair this year will be the greatest and most beautiful ever held as extra efforts have been made to make it an outstanding event of California's fiesta year," stated the agent. "And in addition to the special reduced excursion rate of 85¢ for the round trip from Anaheim, the Motor Transit Lines have made arrangements for a reduced general admission rate into the fair grounds when purchased in conjunction with bus tickets, so that our patrons may obtain the combination for $1.29, thus giving them transportation both ways direct to and from the main entrance including admission to the grounds," advised Agent Harrington who called attention to the fact that the excursion tickets this 4.
