Place and the Girl" for the entertain
nent Of the soldier patients OF the base

ple of the various camps, Tuesday night

given with a cleverness OF acting, a
sprightliness and spontanelty OF move
ment and a real tune1ulness OF Singing
that was much above the average ANA
teur production The characters were
particularly well cast.
Private Albert Berg, OF company A.
as Happy Johnny Hicks was an in
Simultaneous favorite with the large au-
dience. He was very good IN the duet,
i Never Knew What Love Could DO,
sung with Molly the Nurse, most at
tractivelv acted by Miss Zula Robinson
and in Miss Robinson's solo, I'm Fall
inc in Love With Someone, his acting
was capital.
Miss Robinson sang very pleaslngly IN
all of her numbers, but her voice was
Derhaps at its best in a Little Love-
a Little Kiss" The speciality dance later
in the program which Miss Robinson
danced with Sergt. Leo Murphy, was well
received The "hatlna uuel VIII MISS
Robinson and Private Arthur Harvey
was also good

work with the various ehoruses was
GOOD. The duet. "When You're Wearing
a Ball and Chain sung by private Berg
and private Main was clever. Private
Harry Noonan. of company c. sang well
and made a hit in his work with the
choruses in "China Lady and Mid

Thank Mr.. Waite.

Brawley, CAL, June 9, 1916.-1mpe-
rial Valley Press-Dear Sirs: We note
in a recent issue of your papers the
announcement that a carload of can
taloupes was contributed by the can
taloupe growers of Imperial Valley
for distribution on Imperial Valley
Day at the San Diego Exposition.
As we represent most of the grow
ers, we wish to thank YOU for the an
nourcement given. However, we beg
to call your attention to the fact that
all credit due for soliciting this con-
tribution is given to Joseph F. Sey-
mour, Jr. While Mr.. Seymour's eff
forts contributed greatly toward Sc
curing the car in question. the opinion
is generally expressed that F. W.
Waite, county horticultural commits
sioner, deserves most of the credit
in connection with the transaction, as
it w9s through his personal solicita-
tions that the growers, without excep-
ton, gladly contributed their pro rata
number of crates of cantaloupes as
suggested by Mr.. Waite, and there
fore we feel that it is proper that he
receive the credit due, as he gave
much of his time and hard work in
accomplishing this matter.
Our feelings in this matter are pure
ly impartial, yet we believe in giving
credit to whom credit is due.
Yours very truly,
