PIONEER JUSTICE
GOES TO THE BEYOND

One of the best known characters
/ in the valley and the one whose char
+ ity was greatest passed away Friday
at st. Thomas hospital when Judge"
w. g. Mugford died.
Judge Mugford owed his title to
the fact that he was the first justice
of the peace in Imperial Valley, hav
ing been appointed by the supervisors
of San Diego county early in 1902,
when there were about 100 persons in
all this valley. - r.,....
The first trial before Judge Mug
ford should live in history. A man
who was repairing things in general
undertook to mend watch, but found
the handspring broken and threw it
away, being unable to make the re-
pairs, and his customer caused his ar
rest ON a charge IF stealing the main
spring. The trial was before jury un-
der an arrowhead thatch at Imperial,
and, being the only attorney in the
valley, H. N. Dyke assumed the duty
of defending the prisoner and at the
same time guiding the court. 1t would
take too much space to tell of what
Judge Mugford did not know about
law.
/ The judge was more proficient in
running a restaurant than a court, and
yet for years his restaurant in Impe-
rial was a marvel for it was the
Judges rule never to refuse to feed
the hungry, and no time limit was
placed on any of his free patrons. His
counter was open to the world. Those
who wanted to pay could do so and
those who wanted to take advantage
of the old gentleman's charity never
met protest from him.
All that he had he gave to the Lord
by way of the human stomach and,
while his theological doctrines were
involved and insistent, no one got a
further comprehension of them than
thai he believed in feeding the hun
cry.

Our local merchants are making
special preparations for the Christmas
trade and shoppers will be able to
find practically everything within
reason at some one or the other of our

can secure the same goods anywhere.
BY trading with home merchants you
will be getting what you want at the
right price and will be doing your
share toward keeping as much as pos
sible of our money in circulation
among our own people, where it be-
longs, and where you will have an op-

MANY HAWAIIAN UkULELES
NOW USED IN STATES,

Charles Padeken, the clever Uku-
lele soloist with Blake's Hawaiian
singers, dancers and instrumentalists
that come to the Orpheum theatre on
Monday, December 13. says Of his
chosen instrument. "Few musical in
struments have ever come 80 quickly
into popular favor in this country az
has the Hawaiian Ukulele during the
last three or four years. It is es-
timated by reliable authority that In
1914 alone there were between twenty
and twenty thousand Of these
small instruments purchased.
I'm appearance the Ukulele is SIM
ilar- to the Spanish guitar, although
smaller in size. 1t has four strings
and is intended for the accompani-
ment of other instruments or the
voice. 1t has soft, melodious tone
that brings out the weird romance of
the Hawaiian songs"
Mr.. Padeken is the only soloist on
the Hawaiian Ukulele performing in
this country and has made many rec
ords for the Victrola. His selections
stir the pulses of his audience with
his profoundly beautiful playing, ex-
quisite phrasing, brilliant technique

THE PENALTY Of
CwARELESSNESS
BY s. w. ingIlsh,
Fire Prevention Expert.

Every time you hear the cry Of
Fire you can be almost absolutely
safe in thinking that someone has
been careless. Fires don't happen.
They are the inevitable result Of
combinations OF ~preventable things.
When analysed to the last equation
1t VIII be found that carelessness is
the root whence spring nearly all
fires.
What a penalty industry pays to
carelessness! Fire is the great de-
strOyer. The wealth of a generation
can he wiped out In but a brief hour.
Why o fight fires before they
start? Why not so conduct your
habits and SO keep your premises
that when the fire demon wants TO
offer your savings as a sacrifice he
will pass you by. just az those OF
Egypt Of old were, passed over when
the sign they had been told TO place
oye their doors. we're seen2
Too often when those who are
responsible from FIRE cry out they
are the victims Of bad luck. they are
but paying the natural penalty for
their own carelcgsness.

insurance rates. wage eternal war.

DARIUS

The neigh of a horse made Darius
King Of Persia, the six contending
powers for the throne agreeing among
themselves that the one whose horse
should neigh first should possess the
kingdom. This ancient method Of
settling disputes among politicians
could be revived with profit today.
II our partisan factions and petty pol
iticians could only settle their dis
putes by the neigh Of n horse, the
bark of a dog or the bray Of q donkey,
1t would be a great blessing and would
give our citizens a better opportunity
to pursue the vacations of industry
free from political strife.
Let those who pick political plums
by raising row n who fash swords
dripping In the blood OF industry un.
derstand that they cannot turn the
public forum into a political arena and
by a clash OF personal aspirations
still the hammer and stop the plow
and that their quarrels must be settled
In the back alleys Of civilization.

A DIVINE COVENANT.

God Almighty gave Eve to Adam
with the pledge that she would be his
helpmeet and with this order Of com
panionship, civilization has lowered
to it's greatest heights. In this rela,
tionahip, God has blessed woman and
man has honored her and after four
thousand years Of progress, she now
proposes to provoke God to decoy
man by asking for suffrage, thereby
by amending an agreement to which
she was not a party.
Woman, remember that the ~Tsraelite
scorned a divine covenant, and az q
result wandered forty years In the
wilderness without God. Likewise
nan should remember that 1t is q
dangerous thing to debase woman by
law. Rome tried lowering woman's
standard and an outraged civilization
tore the clothes of the backs o. the
human race AMI turned them out to
roam in the world naked and unr
ashamed. ~.n
