Ihe Best Course for all Classes

There's no line of work to-day that costs SO little, can be learned in SO short time, opens SO many avenues to sue cess or offers so sure a stepping stone to promotion ss 8 good business and short hand training for young people. It en- ables them to secure their first position and start at double the salary of those without such train ing. They rise faster from the very start. The nature of their work teaches them more about the business in week than others can learn in year.
 This course prepares one to take care of his own business, is worth ten times it's cost, even on a ranch, can be used to pay One's way through college or uni versity and Is useful in noting lectures while there, can be used always and ev- anywhere and the beauty of it is, one doesn't have to spend fortune or die of old age getting such course in an up- to-date commercial school.
 The San Bernardino Business College is the only school in California making speciality of training for the U. s. civil service. Students who enter this school now can be ready for the civil service examinations or accept good position when the busy season opens. Informa- tion about the work, civil service em- ployment, etc., can be had by writing San BeInardino Business College, San Bernardlno, Calf.

Communicated

lam a good deal of an old fogy, but you know how to treat that Kind of a correspondent, so you will please cut out what don't suit you and correct the spelling of the partyou print.
 | see a good deal about the new coun- ty of Imperial and some things about the new county seat. In fact your pa- per and the other papers, too, seem to take a whole lot of interest in the sub feet. In some of the papers it seems to me they are taking things too serious. No use to get "off'' about things we'll all wish we hadn't said some things, I'm afraid. after it's all over. Let's have it out in good humor. Sometimes it's bet ter to call fellow a prevariCator in- stead of a liar he may not know then just what you mean. Itis bigger word and not so short and crisp anyhow it is a mild remedy and does not act SO rad ically. Now, like the Imperial Valley Press. expect to seeitchange it's name to Imperial County Press before long. The Standard seems like it never noticed it's name and always says "El Centro Press," maybe though this is because it's scared and has got to think Fl Gen. tro is the whole thing, but it isn't. This makes me think of it. You said awhile back something about Imperial not hay ing enough good country around it to make big city well, there may not be as much good land right close to the town as there is around Fl Centro, but there is plenty to make very good town there. I don't think town lots there will be any cheaper than they are now, but of course the town will grow slow ; the business men there will do very we'll and some new ones will come in by and by when they are needed. The worst thing about Imperial is that it is built on an adobe flat, about the hardest spot in the valley and it will take a mighty sight of hard work to grow much trees, etc. It's pity, for most people get oil the cars there first when they come to see the country and 1t makes a bad lm- pression. 1 don't think the people of Imperial ought to think hard of anybody for wanting the county seat somewhere else if they really want the valley to grow, for the town the people decide on for county seat will naturally be con- sidered for awhile the principal town.
 This leads me to another thing which 1 don't want to forget and that is that the county seat is not going to make the town. A town is to be pitied that must depend ultimately on this for it's existence. was surprised to see not long ago "sticker" gotten up at I'm perial which read like this: "The very name Imperial is all asset value and we will not throw it away" Now, 1 could not connect the idea with any oth- or thought than that if Imperial should fail to secure the county seat the town would he wiped off the map. Now, this is too bad this won't ..@pPcA either. Imperial will be a town when Uncle Zed is dead Does anyone think that

reason why his pride. any more than that OF
the unselish soldier. should have been
wounded because OF imprisonment. AS to
the "vlcarious sacrifice" OF Mr.. Davis, 1
would dissent from the views OF General
Bonham. 1t was the private soldier who
made "vicarious sacrifice" Thousands upon
thousands of whom died to lift one hero

While l always try to treat with due and
proper respect, the opinions or feelings OF

slop over on those who differ from them. l
think that some Of the print about Jen
Davis should not have been made. Without
such, neither the Abbeville Press and Banner
nor the Anderson Daily Mail would have had
occasion TO speak, nor would Gen. Bonham
have been provoked to protest.
1 never did admire JEFF Davis. though
never for one moment doubted hat his
whole heart and his undivided energies we're
INCREASINGLY and untireingly directed toward
the success OF the fight in which we were
engaged.

Delayed Traius In Hodges

A great many people who have had occa-
sion to wait on connections between trains
at Hodges are curious to know why such g
schedule 10 adhered to by the road.
For some u~naooountable reason there is a
delay OF 40 TO 80 minutes between morning
trains Is and IS and the same thing IL re-
peated with the afternoon trains II and Is.
They pass at Ware Shoals, and the passenger
from Abbeville to Columbia must wait 40 10
go minutes before he can 60 on his journey.
Abbeville is certainly not OF less conse-
quence from the standpoint OF travel than
Ware Shoals and 1t does seem that the
schedule could be arranged without material
change 70 as to give Abbeviile better connec-
lions at Hodges.
Now what Ia said Ia In no spirit Of malice
for the Southern ROAD for we believe that
this road willingly makes reasonable con-
cessions to the travelling public where their
attention is brought to q matter.
We believe that the delay 10 unreasonable,
however, and as the roads can know the
wants of the people only through the press
we have taken occasion to call attention to
It. A little change in the schedule will
rsmedHthe trouble and we hope TO see 1t
done.
