HERE is SCHEDULE
FOR VALLEY FILMS

Schedules for the displaying of
scenes from the Imperial county high
schools at the California booth in the
Palace of Education at the San Fran
cisco exposition were received this
morning by County Superintendent of
Schools A. P. Shibley.
The schedule follows: Monday
morning, Wednesday morning, Thurs
day afternoon, Friday morning, Sat
urday afternoon, Sunday morning.
Scenes from the high schools COM
prise 1000 feet of film, about min
utes being devoted to each high
school.
Superintendent Shibley, who wit
messed a projection of the films at
Los Angeles after they were COM
pleted, reported favorably on the
showing. The cost to the county, in
cluding the expense of taking and
projecting upon the screen daily at
the exposition, was $500.
Sixty thousand educators are eX-
pected to attend the National Educa-
tional Convention at San Francisco in
August and through the medium of
the films showing scenes in the I'M
perial county high schools the valley
will probably receive advertising of
inestimable value.

ANOTHER ARREST IN
BUCK SHOOTING

A new angle to the shooting of
Customs Inspector Buck has developed
and a third suspect has been arrest
ed on a charge of completely in the
crime. The arrested man gave the
name of George Riley and is said to
be n pickpocket who plies his trade at
MeXicali
Two other suspects were arrested at
CaleXico on information which the
government officials secured there and
were taken to Yuma and later to Los
Angeles, where they are held await
ing a disposal of the case.
Buck, shortly after the shooting, re-
moved to San Diego, where he is con-
valescing from the effects of his
wound. While there he secured in
formation which led to the arrest of
Riley.
Riley was brought to the county
Jail last night and will probably be
taken to Los Angeles tonight, where
he may stand trial in the federal court
on an assault charge.
Buck was shot about a month ago,
after he had arrested a smuggler who
essayed to transport contraband opium
across the line. The customs inspector
effected the arrest in the "iungles"
wes5 of CaleXico and as he marched
his prisoner along the wash, a con-
federate Of the arrested man, lurking
behind a bush, fired at Buck. The
bullet struck Buck in the arm and
rendered him unconscious. By the
time he had recovered his prisoner
and his assailant had fled.
Government officials prosecuted
vigorous search for the smuggler and
Bucks assailant, with the result that
8 suspects were taken into custody.

DR.. COOK RESIGNS
FROM PASTORATt,

DIR ". A. Cook, Phi D., for the
past years pastor of the Presbyter-
ian church in FL Centro, severed his
connection with that organization on
Sunday, and this morning left for Los
Angeles to join Mrs. Cook, who pre-
ceded him to the coast about 10 days
ago
1t is with genuine regret that DR.
Cooks supporters in the church bid
him adieu. Being Of quiet, unassum-
ing dignity, a Christian gentleman Of
the highest ideals and culture, his de-
partme is a loss to the whole com
munity.
After a summer spent on the coast
and in viewing the expositions, DIR.
and Mrs. Cook will, in the fall, re-
move to Tulsa, Okla, a thriving city
Of $4,000 inhabitants, where DR.. Cook
has been called to take the chair of
philosophy and education in the Henry
Kendall Presbyterian College.
Through the faithful efforts of DIR.
Cook and his estimable wife, the Pres
byterian church of FL Centre has been
brought to a degree of stability and
influence never before attained. They
are leaving a permanent place in the
affections of their people, whose good
Wishs follow them to their new home

GETTING RICH

When I first knew him, several years ago. he was a ruddy checked young fellow with a wife and a baby and a modest salary. They lived frugally, were healthy and happy. But he was discontented with the modest salary and went in for getting rich, Now he has a high powered mo- tor car that costs a small fortune in upkeep. He lives in an expensive up town apartment which boasts an extra bath for the maid. His wife dresses as well as her neighbors, and the little girl has alreaGy learned to discriminate according to the social standing of oth- CT little girls
 He also has acquired a saffron skin and bad case of dyspepsia, and when ran across him in the bank rotunda he was grunting about his feelings. I'm miserable and I don't know what's the matter with me-" he said. I'm getting thinner'n a rail, and I don't like my meals any more. One of the boys told me to go to a gym I've tried it, but it don't seem to do any good"
 "why don't you do little walking in the good fresh air?" I asked.
 No time," he answered.
 You might take time for health" I insisted. Ever try a garden? Since l started mine I've gained ten pounds and feel like bear"
 Ugh" he sputtered. "Gardening I loathe it."
 Well, then, golf That's a rich mans game"
 I'm not rich enough yet to afford it." he complained. When l get enough money so I can take my after moons off like the nabobs do then I'll play golf. too"
 You might move out into the coun- try where you'll have to walk some dis tance to your station, or motor into town in an open car-that'd be better than staying in town I suggested.
 The wife wouldn't stand for It." he answered, and l don't know as I'd care for it myself We like to be around where things are doing" You might try going to bed early and getting up carly" I mentioned.

.26 ARE ARRESTED IN
 AUGUST FOR SPEEDING

The month of August was busy one for Deputy Sheriff Harrison Will Hams and an unlucky one for would be speedsters on the various county roads Twenty six speeders were dragged in by Williams, all paying fines of $10, except one motorcycl1st who was assessed only $5, seeing as how the only thing wrong with him was that his light was not going.
 This campaign instituted by Will Hams has done a great deal towards clearing the county roads, and par ticularly Central avenue, of speeders of all sorts and varieties
 In every case a conviction has been obtained. Williams has been very careful that the subject of observation has really been speeding before the heavy hand of the law laid him low.
 As the campaign has brought forth such fruitful results in the past, it is to be continued. Williams is going to be out on his trusty little old motorcycle, and will cover most of the well travelled highways of the county, always with his keen eye aslant for the unwary speedster.

FINANCES and MARKETS
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIspATCHl

NEW YORK, Sept. 2.-Liquidation of American securities for foreign in terests was the prevailing influence in trading, superseding as market factor the settlement of the contro- versy between Washington and Der lin and the critical international credit situation. European selling was generally accepted as the primary reason for improvement in foreign exchange, which recovered almost all ground lost early in the week, though yielding some of this advantage later. Demand bills on London advanced to between $4.59 and $4.60. as against the low rate of S4.50 established yes terday, and other remittances har- dened appreciably. Foreign offerings were mainly active in issues com prising the international list, trans continental grangers, Fries, United States Steel and coppers. The eX tent of this selling, which caused re- sessions of from one to two points, was variously estimated at from forty to fifty thouand shares. Sales of our bonds from similar sources, as denoted by numerous future trans actions, were also large, approXi- mately S600,000. Specialties, particu larly war shares contributed more than their usual quota to a moderte total although United States Steel led all others in it's customary fashion. Crucible seel was next. with a gain of six points to SS$4 fell to S3 at the close. General motors, which rose 21 points the preceding day, added 2h to that gain, selling at the new high of PAS and closing at 241. Electric Storage Battery newly listed and having some claims to recognition because of was con- tracts" rose seven points to 76. Total sales amounted to 900 shares of par value that aggregated S3,3S0,000.
