There he lays aside his mask, and you may learn whether he's imp or angel, king or cur, hero or humbug. care not what the world says of him. whether it crowns him with bays or pelts him with bad eggs; l care not copper what his rep utation or religion may be; If his babies dread his home coming and his wife swallows her heart every time she asks him for five dollar bill, he's a fraud of the first water, even though he may pray night and morn till he's black in the face and howls haIlelujah till he shakes the eternal hills.

HOTEL WILL OPEN
Hotel Fl CentrO, the Largest in the

By the first of next week the large new hotel built by the Fl Centro Town site Go. and completed only about a month ago, will be opened to the pub lie.
 w. T. Bill was in town last week and while here made arrangements with w. w. Masten to open the hotel as soon as 1t was possible and since that time workmen have been busy getting the building in shape for occu- pancy. The furniture and carpets had already been secured, but needed to be put In place At the time of going to press 1t was hoped everything would be ready by Saturday. September 9th, but the matter may be somewhat de- layed on account of getting the large kitchen range into place. The hotel is elegantly furnished throughout and 1t will be run as the best hotel in the Im- perial Valley and situated as 1t is at the junction of the s. P. and H. l.. railroads will no doubt receive a very liberal patronage.

ARCHITECTS HAVE WOES
Builders Blame Maker Of Plans for Il
J. --... accurate Estimates.

Builders have been 10th to make an
nouncement Of their building plans this
year until contracts were let They
would say that they had just SO much
money to spend and that they had
plans ready, but they were not sure
that they would build until it was
found whether the architect 8 estimate

On this score the Improvement Bull
letin has to say. 80.
with the steady advance in building
materials as well as In labor, the COM
plant that architects cannot estimate
the cost of building with any degree
of accuracy receives additional force.
Owners will have plans drawn. having
practically no conception, Of what they
want, further than that they want: about
a, certain limit. The completion of the
plan always means that some other ideas
and, arrangements are suggested, and
changes are to be made If the building
is to be what, is wanted. The archi-
tect is instructed to make these changes
and revisions. Furthermore there must
be little additions made from time to
time, before the final approval Of the
plan. Then comes the taking Of fig
ures and often with the sad awaken
ing that the building which was started
on certain limit of cost has sadly
overrun. . = !.
u.The owner forthwith blames the
architects. The architect would need
to keep as close to the building ma
terials market as does the broker to
the stock market to keep the range Of
cost Of materials, while he would need
all the gifts Of second sight imputed to
several multiples of seventh daugh-
labor might demand. Yet in spite Of
these handicaps as well as of the own
er g changes, he is held to be solely re-
sponsible for the variation in fgures.''
