State University Graduates.

Three thousand persons have
graduated from the University of
Texas since its beginning in 1889.
lhese men and women are occupying
prominent positions throughout Tex
as and the United States. For exam
pie, seven will be in the next United
states congress. In the teaching pro
fession University graduates are
holding positions now on TIE facul-

the University of michigan, the Uni
versity of Wisconsin, Chicago Uni

zen of Oklahoma estimates that not
less than 500 graduates and ex-stu-
dents of the University of Texas are
now residents of that state, and as
sert that they have played a most i'm
portant part in the development of
the new state. In Texas, of course
the influence of the institution is
felt most vitality, single instance
of its activity must suffice: Last

THIS IS THE LAST WEEK
Root Juice Demonstrations Draw
ing to Close.

The Root Juice demonstration at
the Curtin Drug Co. S store will close
next Saturday night The Juice has
done a wonderful lot of good here, as
many nervous wrecks have been res
toted to health, and numerous case9
of rheumatism, catarrh, indigestion
and kidney troubles have respond
ed to the soothing, healing and ton
ic properties Of the great medicine
Many have reported that after using
many other kinds of medicines with
out benefit the first bottle of Root
Juice had such a healing, strength
ening and nerve settling effect, that
hey were certain that a few bottles
would make a permanent cure The
writer has met dozens on the streets
that said After taking the Juice a
short while they we're feeling better
than they had for years For var
ious reasons many do not wish their
names published in the papers. A
well known lady who for social rea-
sons does not wish her name publish
ed said: al suffered with rheumatic
pains all over my body. | was weak
and nervous and my general health
was very bad before | commenced
taking Root Juice, but after taking
it a short while all my aches and
pains We're gone and my general
health has improved wonderfully,
All who have investigated have
found everything published in this
paper in relation to the remedy as
true as gospel and as this is the
last week of the demonstration.
those who need the great remedy
cannot afford to let the demonstra-
tion close without getting some Of
it. Scores of local people have
bought Root Juice and not a single
complaint has been made. On the
contrary, they are praising it to the
skies all over town. It is certainly
wonderful medicine.

A Good Performance,

The Climax" which appeared at
the Shelton theater last night bears
the favorable distinction OF being
different" 1t is unlike any play
that has come here this season In
his plot Edward Locke, the author,
has gone further than most dramatic
writer's and has assembled plot
that is interesting and entertaining
The play is one of the high-cIass
productions making this part of
the west 1t is peculiar in taat only
four characters appear durins the
production. These, however, enter
tanned for two hours a large and ap-
preciative audience
Miss Leona Slater, as Adelina
Won Hagen, the vocal pupil Of Luigi
Golfanti, impersonated by CLYDE
Benson, easily is the foremost OF the
four. The play somewhat drags in
the first act, but the two succeeding
acts arouse the interest of the au-
dience The author haT endeavored
TO portray the love IF the musician
for her musical gift as abo . every
thing else. When her voice fails she
turns to the man who has ,fonel
her, Learning that she has been
tricked into the belief that sac has
lost her voice, and that she can in
deed sing, the songstress turns from
the man who has won her love and
tricked her and takes up her profess
sion. The climax comes Wen she
turns to her ambition and refuses
the man who has won her love.
Benson and Miss Slater are easily
the best characters of the Diay

BRAWLEY IS BOOSTING
AMERICAN" ROUTE
Citizens Decide OF Immediately I'm.
prove Proposed Highway to Con.
.rn1v at t..o pI eacn-
ms meet Valley With Yuma.

The meeting of citizens called for
tuesday night at the city hall was
ttended by many, and the purpose
# the meeting was to devise ways
nd means of improving the public
highways, and more especially in the
interest of the highway from Brawley
Yuma. or rather fran the northern
part of the county to Yuma.
The route traversed recently by
Iessrs. Wade, Jeckell and Park was
discussed fully as TO its desirability
irst. and secondly the probable cost
# putting ii in order TO more easily
acilitate the running of automobiles
,ver the road.
The feasibility of the rad as gone
over having been settled. the meeting
Iext considered the cost of fixing it
nd Engineer Park thought the out
,ide sum of $500 would accomplish
he desired result.
culCi looi W iIlS was dohtu iloN
nuch in his opinion, the county SUI
pervisors would be inclined to spend
IN the project, and while non commit
Il on the subject. he believed that
hey could be induced 10 make the ap-
propriatiOn. and the meeting decided
o take action at once and guarantee
he amount or as much as would be
leeded in addition TO whatever sum
he supervisors failed to provide, con
ming themselves, however. to the
AMOUNT already stated 1t was thought
hat perhaps the supervisors might
lot see their way clear to give more
han three or four hundred dollars
md that perhaps the improvement
eould be made for this amount.
The chairman of the meeting, IIar
Y Stewart. was instructed 10 name a
'ommittee of three. empowered 10
aise the necessary funds and act in
onjunctoin with the supervisors in
he work. A part of the fund having
already been subscribed, the raising
II the necessary balance was deemed
I matter of only few days, as senti-
nent was so much IN favor of the
project.
There was less talk and more action
han is usual in such matters and
Peter HOVleV bV his straight from
he-shoulder talk in advocacy of the
jlan, will have large influence in

this larger paper would be issued ono,

necessary to issue eight pages regu

The business houses which have
been advertising in these column
have had so satisfactory results tha'
the bulk of advertising is increasing
steadily, and the additional space i.
made necessary
In increasing the size of The Press
arrangement is being made for serv.

And the price? Well, the manager
started in to publish the Great Dollar
Daily for the people of Imperial coun-
ty. He has no desire and no intention
to depart from that idea. But the ad-
ditional expense of mailing outside Of
the county makes it necessary hereaf-
ter to charge 50 a year for The Press
when sent out of Imperial county
The Dollar Daily is the consumma-
tion of an idea held by the manager OF
The Press from the time he founded
the Redlands Facts, twenty one years
ago. II fits into local conditions here
