Trip Through the Imperial Valley OF
California
Continued from Previous Page

here we crossed the international
boundary line to the Mexican town
OF Mexacali, the capital of Lower
California ut present. 1t consists
almost entirely OF about four blocks |
OF open joints, gambling and dance |
halls. all doing rushing business, |
with all the different gambling ap-
paratus known to man, in combina-
ton with an over supply of booze and |
women. The population seemed to
consist of a mixture OF MeXicans, In |
dians, Negros, Japs. Cinnamon and |
the poor white trash-truly. the off |
scourings Of the earth. and altogeth-
er the toughest looking bunch II has
ever been my lot to see together. II |
this is sample OF the people con-
cerned in the government of Mexico,
Il Is not hard to understand why they
havnt any government. Part OF |
our crowd visited the hop joints un-
derneath these gambling joints,
where they found men and women |
lying around on mattresses indis-
crtminately, with almost no clothing.
and dead to the world with dope.
From here We went twelve miles |
to the largest town in the valley. Ell
Centro. ten years OF age and with |
about 10000 inhabitants. II is a |
splendid modern city. with miles OF |
paved streets, cement walks and |
curbing. and many blocks of busi- |
ness houses OF all kinds and an cleo |
trio car line to neighboring towns. |
They are just finishing a beautiful |
new four story hotel building which |
would be a credit to any town OF one |
hundred thousand inha 5itan;s. The |
hotel is called barbara Worth" the |
plot for which story was laia in the |
sand hills which we crossed in the |
early part OF the trip.
From here we visited the town OF |
Imperial. which Is very similar TO |
FL Centro in improvements, but only |
about one-half as large. We stayed |
here all night and returned to Yuma |
the following day. We missed Wis
iting Brawley. the only other town OF
much Importance In the Valley. and
which / understand is quite similar |
TO FL Centre and Imperial and in
the heart OF the cantaloupc district.
Although the trip was a revelation
to the stranger and IL Was hard to
realize that ten or twelve years ago
this was part Of the Great Ameri-
can Desert. where at present great
herds OF fine cattle and the finest
farms on every side as far as the
eye can reach. and far beyond. with
prosperous looking homes scattered
everywhere. mostly surrounded en-
tirely by screened porches and con-
tanning most the modern convent
ences. Heating plants are not re-
quired. OF course. but you find bath
rooms and plumbing fixtures every
where-quiie often on the screened
porches. with water pipes running on
the outside OF the building. because
they do not have TO be protected
from frost. The desert is now
blooming like rose. Flowers are
everywhere and the roses have grown
TO be trees. climbing over the roofs
and second stories OF the houses. and
beautiful and delicate almost beyond
description.

SYNOD PASSES
RESOLUTIONS

The Presbyterian Synod of North
Dakota at their meeting in Lisbon,
passed the following resolution:
Resolved, First, That Synod urge
state legislation providing for the Sat-
urday half-holiday as necessary
prerequisite to proper Sabbath observ
ance.
Resolved, Second, That Syndo sug-
gests to all pastors and teachers that
they wisely enforce the duty of Sab
bath observance in christian and ef-
fectively serviceable manner.
Resolved, Third, That Synod call
the attention of our legislators to the
need of so amending our game laws
as that one law shall not make it a
misdemeanor to hunt on Sunday

which sometimes falls on Sunday, thus
by their contradiction, tempting thou.
sands of men and boys to make wal

strongly disapproved of Sunday sports
social functions, political meetings
buying, ordinary school work of reci.
tations or study, travelling especially
on secular business-all excursions, al
ordinary secular labor--except in cas-,

GREAT SINGER
TO Be IN CITY

Igna Orner, the greatest Norweg-
ian soprano of the present day has
been secured to entertain in this city
February %. The people of this city
are very fortunate to have the oppor-
tunity to hear a singer of such note
as Miss OrAer. She happens to be
going through to San Francisco, and
it was with considerable effort that
she was induced to stop over here for
one night only. Here is what the
Seattle Post-Intelligence says about
her:
Miss Orner's Introductory number
was the incompatible "Jewel Song
from Faust" and it would be hard to
exaggerate statement about the sur
prised delight which her singing in
stantly produced. 4 placid poignancy
gave wistful tenderness to that Won
derful song, and she accomplishes its
most difficult passage with a girlish
naturalness and ease that seldom go
with such perfect musical certainty.
To the storm Of applause she gave a
folk song of her own country,
whimsy in balladry, that brought
laughter and tears to her audience.
The concert will be held in the St.
Olaf Lutheran church Following is
the program:

GREATEST SALE
OF THE SEASON

Probably the most successful sale
held in this city this season has been
the one at the store of Rodenbach &
Mundt, which opened up last Satur-
day. The World did the advertising
for this sale, the success of which
proves conclusively that as business
getter advertising in this newspaper
pays big returns. It was not only a
sale of local buyers, but the large out
side circulation of The World drew
people from every part of the county
and and also other counties. In fact
there was such rush that it was i'm
possible for all the people to get into
the store on the open day, and al
though the management had regi-
ment of clerks, they were entirely un-
able to wait on the crowds and had to
make an apology along these lines.
Talk about advertising, but The
World has larger drawing powe,
than any other newspaper in the Lake
Region. The Rodenbach & Mundt
sale proves this.

LARGE DEFICIT
IS FACED

Washington, Feb. 9-Leaders of
the administration in conference with
the President decided that there is
no immediate need Of legislation to
increase the governments revenues.
Secretary McAdoo of the treasury an
nounced that it was agreed at the end
of the fiscal year the government will
knew better the effects of the Euro
pean war and what, if anything, it is
necessary to do. McAdoo declared
that he still stood by his estimate of
governments revenue for the fiscal
year ending next June, which COM
pared with the estimate of expendi-
lures will leave a deficit Of ten million
It was understood after conference
suggestions that the war revenue act
be extended for six months and con-
gress abandon. the thirty-four million
river and harbor bill, struck no re-
sponsive chord. On the other hand,
the cabinet officers said it was made
plain in accordance with the presi-
dents suggestion, that they cut their
estimate of expenditure without
risking the impairing of efficiency Of
their department.
Estimates sent congress in Decem.
ber aggregate seven hundred and ter
million, to which twenty-eight mil.
lion will be added for Panama cana
disbursements.
Some additional estimates have
been sent in since and substantial ad
ditions made to proposed appropria'
tions by House committees in draft
ing supply bills.
