The story of the growth and de-
vclopment of the Imperial Valley
school system is one Of unusual inter
est. But it is more than interesting. 1t
is an eye opener, putting forth most
convincing evidence of the substan-
tial and permanent development of
this inland empire. There are those
who have he idea that Imperial Val
ley is just an investment, that no one
expects to live here more than long
enough to make his stake. Nothing
could be farther from the truth. To
convince you that we are going to
make our homes here and that we eX-
pect thousands of others to do the
same, we point you to our beautiful
substantial school buildings and we
will tell you the story of their rapid
growth.
1t was in the year 1901-02 that the
first school was held. 1t was taught
in "Ramada," and was probably the
first open air school held in the state.
L. E. Cooley was the first teacher and
the school was located just a little
south of Heber. There were 35 pu-
pills and they came for miles on horse
pack and in all kinds of vehicles. As
the season advanced classes were
heard in the sunshine during the
chilly hours of the day-strictly up
to date. The next year there were
three schools, at Imperial, CaleXico
and Silsbee. From this time the
growth of the schools was very rapid.

both residence and business" said J..
T. Pitts of the realty firm of Pitts
e. Duncan, "but it is expected that
a large amount of building now going
on will soon relieve the situation"
J. T. Pitts and J. P. Duncan are
partners in one of the enterprising
firms of the city and are leading
brokers of the Imperial Valley. Mr..
Fits came here six years ago, while
idr. Duncan has been in the Valley
for the past eight years, and both are
thoroughly familiar with the land
situation in the city and county.
Messrs. Pitts and Duncan are hand

the valley. Their building operations
have been Of value to the community
and particularly to the man OF linn

the small payment plan. Considerable

often in the Valley that the car is
acknowledged by all who have inves-

most economical automobile sold here
at present.
"The noticeable increase in the
number of inquiries for lands and
city property" said Mr., Duncan, "is
one of the indications of the growing
popularity of the Imperial Valley"

Farmers Exchange

"Of certain products predominant
ing in the Valley, alfalfa and cotton
are sure crops" said F. M. Barto,
-ealty broker, "and undoubtedly in the
near future the ranchers will evolve
many other profitable products best
suited to the local soil"
Three years ago F M. Barto came
here from Santa Ana with no other
experience in the handling of real
estate than was CLEANED from a resi-
dence in the thriving city of walnut

P. R. Holdzkom is in charge of the

"If the progress of the Imperial
Valley is as great in the next ten
years as it has been in the past"
said ]. NJ. Julian, grocer, "it is safe
to predict a population of several
hundred thousand people in the Valley
within a decade"
J. NJ. Julian is one of the early set
tiers in this community and came here
seven years ago from the state Of
Oklahoma. and when he speaks of the
Imperial Valley he has something in
teresting to say. For a number OF
vears, Mr.. Julian was conducting the
Valley Hardware Store and about one

The Julian grocery is one of the en-

Beynon's Store de Luxe

Every year VIC witness an increase
in the number of acres in cultivation
in the Imperial Valley said Guy G.
Beyron, merchant, "and this means
an enormous addition to the wealth
of the community"
An active business man of Ell Centre
and formerly resident of Colorado,
Guy G. Bcynon of Beynon's Store de
Luxe is an enthusiastic supporter of
the Imperial Valley. When interview
ed recently by reporter he was
quick to emphasize the great benefit
that is to come from an increased
number of ranchcrs in the valley anil
from additional acreage under cult
walton.
Beynon's Store De Luxe was recent
ly purchased from the former owners,
Nance & Fisher, and is located in the
center of the downtown business dis
trict at the corner of Fifth and Main
streets. The stock includes mems
furnishings, hats, shoes and clothing
and comprises such established brands
as Stetson's hats, Nettleton's shoes
and Bcnjamin's clothes.
"My confidence in the Imperial

ganized into county and had sep

schools with an average daily attend
ance of 1877.
The first high school was opened
at Imperial the same year, with an
enrolment Of 81. The average daily
attendance was %, making the aver
age daily attendance of all schools in
the county the first year 1865.
A few interesting figures will help
to tell the tale. For the first year
--1907 -08-the school expenses were:

total for high schools, S4782.93, max

attendance was 103 and total paid TO"
teachers salaries was $1700.
Since that time the growth has
been so rapid that it has taxed the in
genuity of the trustees to keep the
pupils housed. Today three buildings
are used for the grammar grades.
These are the Olive street school, the
Commercial street school and the East
Side school.
There are now $50 pupils enrolled

16 months. We employ 16 teachers
and the present salary budget Is

Dicks Restaurant

"The majority of business. men of
Ell Centre came here with limited
capital" said Dick Barbarick, restau-
rant owner, "and it gives very clear
idea of the prosperity of this locality
when it is understood that mos. of the
merchants now own property and are
practically independent"
Five years in the city of Ell Centre
has been sufficient for Dick Barbarick
to win success and he speaks from
personal experience and observation
He was formerly employed in Los An
geles and came TO the Imperial Valley
to better his condition in the CONNER
cial world, and from a modest begin
ming has made satisfactory position
for himself.
Dicks restaurant on Main street is
a popular-priced eating place, and Is
conveniently located near the center
of the business district. The service
includes short orders and regular
meals, and the equipment includes
eight tables and lunch counter.
Dick Barbarick owns the ouilding
in which the restaurant is located and
he is now erecting a new brick struc-
ture adjoining the old site ami to be

The average salary for teachers in
Imperial county this year is s1065.90
Evidently the people of the valley be

County Superintendent L. E. Cooley

The teachers are the best that can

Probably no new county has ever
showed greater achievements in its
school system than has Imperial, the
county only six years old.
So much for the county schools, but
it is to the Ell Centre schools we wish
especially to call your attention.
Our first school was held in the

is deriving it's patronage from all

Ell Centre National Bank

"The financial stability of the I'm
perial Valley has been one of the
chief factors in the rapid develop
ment of the county," said President
F. B. Fuller of the Ell Centre National
Bank, "and the present indications
point to year Of great prosperity
along all lines throughout the entire
valley"
Close to ten years an active par
ticipant in the progress of the Imper-
ial Valley has qualified F. B. Fuller to
speak of the general outlook of the
city and community. He was among
the first to recognize the future of
the Valley, and came here from Texas
as an investor in ranch property more
than nine years ago, and shortly after
became q permanent resident of Ell
Centro.
The Ell Centre National Bank was
the first national financial institution
to commence business in this city, and
some idea of it's growth is seen in the
deposits for 1909. which were $94, 900,
as compared with $4l0,000, in 1914.
The resources of the bank are $780,
600. while the capital and surplus total
$4,000
The Ell Centre National Bank oc-
supics a modern fire-proof building
at the corner of Fifth and Main
streets. 1t is handsome two-story
stone structure in the heart of the
commercial district. and comprises
splendid facilities in fire and burg
lar proof vaults.

tional Bank are: F. B. Fuller, presi-
dent; w. T. Bill, vice-president; T.
L. Doherty. cashier. and the directors
include: F. B. Fuller. T. l.. Dohertv.
G. E. Sprouse. l. A. Morgan, R. w.
Campbell and Ira Aten. These names
represent some of the leading and
strongest men of the Valley, and their
IDENTITY with the Ell Centre National
Bank has been a substantial factor
in it's steady and conservative growth.
"The total deposits of the banks
Of the Imperial Valley are more than
two million dollars" said Mr.. Fuller.
