MUSICAL RECITAL
Admirable Entertainment By Valley
 Talent in Lecture Course.

The Valley Talent" number of the Imperial Valley lecture course was given this week in all of the valley cities. On Tuesday night the enter tainment was given at El Centro in Holt Opera House, and proved to be one of the most admirable musical recitals heard since the house was opened to the public. Although all the participants are profession als, their performances were fully up to high-c class professional standards. The following programme shows the excellence of the selections: Second Polonaise, ..C Chopin.

 Mrs. Peacock sang in pure, sweet if not very powerful soprano and her rendering of the number from Ron aids song cycle was specially pleas ing. Murray Stover's cello solo, the Flower Song was without flaw and showed his mastership of the instru- ment. Mott Mitchell's best number was the Del Riego song. Paul Stein tori proved to be a remarkable whistler, and Mrs. Foerster a very satisfactory reader. The music se lected was all of high class. and it's rendering calls for no unfavorable criticism. The entertainment was ex- cellent in every respect.

Commissioners Look For Way to Avoid Rough Road In
 Devils Canon.
Surveyors Locating Line and Obtain ing Data For Commissioners Report to Supervisors Upon Which Propo sition to Issue County Road Bonds win Be Based.

A new route for a part of the road between Ea Centro and San Diego is sought by the Imperial County Highway Commission. Last Saturday Commissioners Benton. Bowker and Carter, Secretary Mansfield, Super visor McHarg, Surveyor Perry, Harold Wright and Allen Kelly went over the road from El Centro to Mountain Springs, close to the county line, and the next day was devoted to looking for possible pass through the noun tains by which Devils Canon many be avoided.
 Devils Canon is q winding pass between walls of granite boulders. A grade could be made above the bed of the canon for the greater part of the way, but there are places where the road would have to be on !he sand floor and likely to be washed out by storm waters. The mountains are piles of granite boulceis, showing no lodges in place. In the Ipiift the granite was shattered ant tiln'ed over. forming the toughest untry conceiy- able, and Devils Canon is only a twisting stream bed between piles of t,oulders precariousiy poised.
 The Commissioners made d recon noissance south of the canon and had bit of mountain scrambIing that they will remember for some time. sn the outfit could negotiate the rocks at all even when the riders dis mounted and led them. aud it was no easy thing for a man U6 get through afoot. A route better than the present road probably can be worked out, and a new line across the mesa to the foot of the mountains can be run to avoid the said.
