THIS WILL Be THE GREATEST
CHRISTMAS OF VALLEYS HISTORY

This will be the greatest Christmas
season in the history of Imperial val
ley. IT may be needless for the Press
to make this statement, for it is evi-
dent from the stocks now being put on
display that the merchants realized this
long enough ago to make provision.
The first Christmas passed in I'm
perial valley was a sort Of heartbreak =
ing affair for the little people and their
elders alike, for there was not toy
or a stick Of candy TO be obtained, no,
was there anything but the wild vege-
tation Of the desert for decoration pur-
poses at the first Christmas assembly
Of the people.
And yet that was not long ago-Only
eleven years ago. But from that time
to this there has been a steady rise
III the character of the celebration. For
a number Of years most of the people
were having so great struggle in bring
ing their land into productive state
that there was little money available
for presents. In this respect there has
been a gradual change. and this sea
son the people Of Imperial valley will
probably do as much in the way Of
christmas expenditures as any equal

grOcers and bakers are planning for
the dinners which go with the other
features of the celebration.
And do you think the children are
overlooking the advent of the holiday
season? If you cannot read thoughts
of Christmas in their sparkling eyes and
their readiness to do the little chores OF
the household you have forgotten your
own youth.
1t will be a merry Christmas for all,
for never before were all the condi-
tions for happiness more united than
they are in imperial valley, and all are
ready to make the day great success

Case Without a Precedent.

For what reason these four lads should
have formed themselves into a clique to
poster one of their classmates Is
question that has not been answered, but
from what has been gathered the case
is without precedent in the history Of the
academy, and according to reliable infor-
nation. Jones was in many instances very
brutally handled by his torturers. 1t Is
said that he had been subjected to the
tortures, with frequent fist fights. ever
since the fourth class was taken into the
academy last summer.
The four middies of the clique are
what are known as -'bilgers.' having for
merly belonged to the present third class,
resigned and re-entered the academy. 1t
Is said they assumed that they rated"
te privileges of upper classmen. who
in the past have exercised unwarranted
authority to the humiliation and mis-
treatment Of the new men.
