Memories of the first mad rush of summer festivities were being
quietly tucked away tills week, and folks In our neighborhood, (those
who haven't taken off for vacations! have settled back In their casv
chain to recover from the strained muscles and sunburns of recent more
strenuous daya. .

mond 8. Loosley of Fort Klamath has a cactus plant that, If anything,
is worse than wo arc. Seems the plant la a Christmas cactus, widely
known for Its December blooms. This one, being an individualist,
bloomed, of all limes, on the 4th of July. The only plausible reason for
Ita peculiar behavior Is the unseasonable cool weather recently. At least
that's the only reason Mrs. Loosley can find.
Did you know that cranial hair of the male Is definitely' a dis
appearing characteristic? That Isn't our view we picked It out of a
Jilghly Informative pamphlet on coiffures directed our way by the past
man. Just why the above bit of wisdom1 la placed in a Ud bit about
milady's hair fashions has us baffled.

club was held at the Pelican party room Thursday noon, with a luncheon
meeting.
. Rita Whisnant was elected Junior delegate to the northwest regional
convention to be held in October at Helena, Mont.
An interesting speaker at a July meeting was C. W. Bumingham,
who is with the bureau ot reclamation In this district. Mr. Burningham
Is a graduate in civil engineering from the University of Utah, and has
been connected with irrigation projects for a period of 25 years.
He gave a history of irrigation. Earliest reference to Irrigation was
taken from the Bible In the Book ;
of Genesis. A very Interesting source
of early information is taken from
the codes and history of Hammu
rabi, a Babylonian king who reigned
about 2000 B. C. His codes of water
control and neighbor consideration
could be used as a basis of good
neighbor relations In irrigation
projects of today, to a very good
advantage, said the speaker.
