EXTENSION Of GAS
SERVICE IS PLANNED
Carry Mains Through the South
ern Part OF El Centro
ern Part OF El

Expansion is the order of the day
throughout Imperial valley Merchants
have been making shifts to secure more
room; industrial establishments have been
forced to increase their capacities and
all are laying foundations for a much
more extensive business than was planned
on originally. In line with this move is
the action of the Imperial Valley Gas
Company in planning for an extension of
it's gas service throughout the southerly
and southeasterly parts of FL Centro. The
plan includes the laying of mains through
the Hamilton subdivision and westerly as
far as the Date canal, so that all the
new homes built in that district during
the past few months may have this
service. Just how soon this work will
be started has not yet been determined
but it will probably be completed before
spring. Brawley people also anxious
for the gas service and It !s probable
that they will be served by the Imperial
Valley Gas Company within short time

LEI THE TRUTH Be KNOWN
OF THE PERFECT CLIMATE

Every once in while there is some
evidence that outside of this valley the
fact is not known that this region from
October to May has the most perfect
climate to be found on earth, and it is
incumbent Oh the people of this valley
to educate every person within reach.
This, for instance, has been a typical
day, with mercury rising from So at sun
rise to 50 in the afternoon, without u
cloud in sight and with simply enough
air movement to prove delightful.
With a little variation in temperature
and a little allowance for half doze
windy days this is the weather that can
be looked forward to for the next seven
months.
Thousands of persons come from the
East to the coast every summer, passing
through the most delightful region on
earth, and not knowing it.
The Press does not advise any person
to wreck the limited trains to compel the
passengers to stop over, but it does be-
lieve that some heroic measure to secure
this end is justified.
