Lexinaton Defeated LeesviIIe in an
Exciting Game on the Fourth
by a Score of 5 to 3.

On the Fourth Lexington defeated

ing game of ball by score of 5 to 8.
There has been strong rivalry between
these two teams and the Lexington
bows made good use of the opportunity
to "get even" 1t being the Glorious 10 5
Fourth it goes without saying that
the bows felt good, and good many
''kicks" were made on the umpire's
decisions, but he took itgood natured-
ly and stuck to his decisions with a
firmness that could not be moved.
Lexington has not been defeated this
season, and since defeating Leesville
the boys are Growing louder than
ever. The features of the game were
Fort Graham's batting and a catch of
a long drive to center field by Lucius
Buckley. The Leesville boys played
good ball and pulled off some good
plays.
Batteries: Lexington-Barrett and
Sox; Leesville-Able and Hartley.

War Spirit Growing.

Washington, July s.-The war spirit
is growing in military circles here,
and the Japanese situation is the sole
topic.
''If Japan thinks she can whip the
United States" said prominent na-
val officer today, 'shouldn't be sur
prised if she took the projected move
ment of the United States battleships
to the Pacific as an unfriendly act and
declare war. If, after measuring her
physical and financial strength, japan
decided she might get the worst she
will probably accept the movement as
it was intended by the United States,
but the traditional friendship is brok-
en-. Some day if the United States
becomes involved with another power,
we may feel the Japanese enmity."

To the Editor of The Dispatch:
I enclose check for 500. Please
use same to pay what now owe you

Dispatch and apply balance On future
subscription.
T am an old Lexington boy, the
oldest son of W. N. Martin, ard
always enjoy any news from my na-
tive county. The Dispatch is like d
letter from home. 1t has been nearly
eighteen years since I left home to
attend the Peabody Normal College,
at Nashville, Tenn, and I have never
lived in South Carolina since that
time, but I love the old State and
cherish the memories of my boy
hood friends and experiences. I oc-
casionally go back to visit my parents
and thoroughly enjoy seeing and
talking with my old acquaintance.
Sometimes I almost make up my
mind to come back to South Caro-
lima to live, but I have done pretty
well here and men who have made a
success in life tell me that it is
mighty safe policy to stay where you
are doing we'll.
Your paper was the first paper I
ever tried to read after I learned to
read. It is much better paper now
than it was then, but I enjoyed it
then and I enjoy it now.
With best wishes for your contin-
ued good health, happiness and sue

BEST TIME IS IN MAY
Former Imperial Lawyer Says Now IS Good Time for San Diegans to See Imperial
 Valley
From the San Diego Union ::

From the San Diego Union:
 In an interview with a Union reporter relative to the San Diego chamber of commerce excursion. leaving San Di ego for Imperial on Friday, May l7. George H, P Shaw, ex- city attorney of Imperial and ex-assistont dlstric: at torney of San Diego county. made the following observations:
 While Imperial valley, so far as Its climate Is concerned, has Its ell mate is concerned. has its excellence during the winter months. nevertheless the month of May will show more to the person who desires to see what the reclaimed desert Is capable of produc- ing than at any other time. The crops have been harvested and the grain threshed and the big warehouses are filled with thousands of sacks that are moving. out of the valley, the barley and the wheat being the first produced in the United States. The cantaloupes are just ready to move, and the Can taloupe special' Is ready to transport a crop which Is worth many thousands of dollars. Alfalfa fields are aglow with their rich emerald hues and the cattle and hogs are fattenlng upon them The heat is not oppressive. and while the thermometer may register high nevertheless nobody will suffer from its effects. and those who go upon the excursion of the chamber of commerce will realize what high thermometer in Imperial valley is A temperature of l25 degrees there does not effect a person as much as does 80 degrees on the coast
 "The people of San Diego ely have been talking about having no back country When say that l24 900 acres of irrigated lands are now under cultivation and under water in Imperial valley, the people of San Diego can begin to realize what back country they have. Ex-Gov. Pardee, then in office, declared to me, in the presence of the congressio nal commrtee, which visited Imperial valley some eighteen

months ago, that that section would double the agricultural importance of Southern California This statement was coincided in by other members Of the congressional party. among whom were Senators Newland, of Nevada; Warren, of Wyoming; Representatives Mundell. of Wyoming, chairman of the irrigation committee of the house; Smith and Kahn. of California, and others of that party. Senator New lands. the author of the irrigation bill, asked me, where the county seat was, and told him at San Diego. He asked me how far 1t was and told him $50 miles and that 1t was neces- sary to go by way of Los Angeles to get there. Then he asked me, In as tonishment, why the people of San Di- ego had no direct communication With the valley. replied that the people of San Diego thought they had no back country, and he replied, why it is the greatest country in the world; It is second Delta of the Nile
 If the people of San Diego will get to Imperial valley they will find that Los Angeles has no such back country the like of which San Diego can show You will find electric lights and paved sidewalks in this reclaimed portion of San Diego county, which five years ago was a desert have never seen a person who has visited Imperial val ley and returned who has not expressed his or her surprise at the extent and productiveness of that eastern portion Of San Diego county"
