II. F. MCCAIN,
Adjutant General.
The Young Mems Christian Associa-
ton is to be commended for it's oppor-
tune activity and it's concerted action
III looking after it's own, and, that Of
fetal recognition has been given the
organization for providing rational
recreation, amusement and instruction
during leisure hours at the thirteen
training camps.
1t is understood that the Y. NJ. G. A..
is raising fund of $3,000,000 for this
one function alone.
The question is-What's to be done
for the Catholic young men?
Now, every Council OF the Knights
of Columbus, every Division of the La
dies Auxiliary of the Ancient Order
OF Hibernians, and all other Catholic
organizations in the United States
should act at once to do their part for
those OF their own faith. Many thou
sands OF our Catholic young men will
leave their homes for the first time
to be modified at these thirteen diff
ferent training camps, and they should
have thrown around them every safe
guard to shield them from the dangers
that threaten their faith and morals,
during their isolation from home.
The idea now is that the Knights of
Columbus continue the wonderful
work they accomplished during the
mobilization of the troops on the Mex
lean border. and erect temporary
building on the reservation of each of
the training camps (Which is author
lied. by the Act of May 81, 1902, re-
ferred. to above.) 1t has been est.
mated that such building can be con.
structed for about $500, and used for
recreation purposes, amusement. ill.,
struction, and if necessary, where
Catholic services could be held.
AS soon as these buildings are com
pleted, they should be furnished and
equipped by the funds raised by the
organizations of women IN the church.
The furniture should be plain but COM
Portable. Good magazines, the Catho-
lie papers, stationery, etc, should be
found in plenty therein.

There are still many realty owners
in the valley, however, according to
Business Manager C. E. Paris, who
could aid the campaign materially by
taking it upon themselves to SUBJ

ber of signatures required to make the
petition effective is $500. The Off
cials have obtained the permission Of
the owners of majority Of the prop

BEST OF CARE
NEEDED FOR
Infants

Next week will be for the babies
in Ell Centre, local women who are
interested having planned an excel
lent program for the week. The local
enthusiasm is along the lines of ma
tlonal awakening to the requirements
Of better care for the infants.
How the strength of the nation is
being impaired by the conditions
which make babies sicken and die,
and what some 1000 communities have
done to awaken interest in the con-
servation of the youngest citizens,
are briefly reviewed in new bulle-
tin on Baby Week Campaigns which
has just been issued by the Chill
dren's Bureau of the United States
Department of Labor.
Approximately one in ten of all the
babies born in the United States dies
before completing twelve months of
life and the Children's Bureau says:
at was once thought that high
infant death rate indicated greater
degree of vigor in the survivors. Now
it is agreed that the conditions which
destroy so many of the youngest lives
of the community must also result in
crippling and manning many others
and must react unfavorably upon the
health of the entire community.
Two thousand one hundred commu.
mites have reported to the Children's
Bureau the details Of Baby Day OF
a Baby Week by which they called
attention to the need of protecting
their babies. Ingenious devices for
exhibits, new methods of distributing
pamphlets on baby care, ways in

New immigration Regula-
tiOns to Provide for More
Rigid Tests in Future.

In following out the provisions of
the immigration laws as amended at
the last session of Congress, imrnl
grafton officials at the border expect
to have their hands full for a while
after the law goes into effect on May
l. Inspector in Charge Musgravc has
made requisition for three adGit'an-
al men, to be stationed in Caiexico,
and has been assured that they will
be given.
The literacy test will be one o.
the new things to contend with. IN
spector Musgrave is in doubt as to
how it will affect the tide of immi
grafton at Calexico, since there are
some provisions Of the new Law that
will require interpretation, and which
are not clear.
The present head tax on all aliens
coming into the United States is 81.
This applies to all except those who
have had a residence of one year or
more in countries adjoining the Unit
ed States, like Canada, Cuba and Mex
leo. The alien tax provided for in
the new law is SO, but it is not
known at this time whether the same
exemptions will hold as under the

SALE TO Be
REPEATED

Not only are numerous farmers
from the districts around Ell Centre
expected to attend the "First Mon

FORCE
Of M|L|T|AMEN
TO PROTECT
BORDERS
Adjt. Gen. BOree Expects to
Provide Troops for the
Southern Counties.

That Adjutant General Boree in
tends to provide an adequate militia
force to aid in guarding the borders
of the southern counties of the state
is evident from an article written for
the Los Angeles Examiner by Othe-
man Stevens, staff correspondent at
Sacramento. One Of the pertinent
statements contained in the article
is as follows:
"But it is none the less the inten-
tion of the adjutant generals office
to form at least one, and probably
more, company of the new National
Guard which will meet the provisions
of national defense, in Imperial coun-
ty, beginning with Ell Centro.
"That there is some anxiety felt
for the southern counties in California
and towns near the border is evil
dent.
"There are plenty of men in I'm
perial county to meet any situation
that could arise suddenly, provided
they arc organized and equipped. 1t
is hoped to soon bring this about"
Adjutant General Boree has decided
to install an experienced newspaper
man as publicity" agent, but whose
duties will be more of the nature of
censor than pertaining to his real
profession. It is the intention Of the
department to keep secret many pla;.s
of protective nature.

FL CFNTRO TO
PLAY SE[[FY
SERIES OF
GAMES
Winning Team to Take Re-
ceipts and Championship
HOn0rs of the Valley.
Respective Managers Divide
Side Money and Fost 1t
as New Forfeit Today.

Arrangements were made this morn
ing by Manager Lockett of the See-
ley team and Manager Schultz of the
local ball club whereby the two teams
are to play series of three games
to determine the championship of the
valley and decide who shall take the
side bet of $10O. Prior to this new
agreement Seeley and Ell Centre were
tied in the first post-season series.
Managers Lockett and Schultz dis
posed of the matter by agreeing to
divide the 800 side bet and each post
$50 as forfeit to guarantee the pro-
visions of the agreement.
The first game is to be played in
Ell Centre on April l, the second at
Seeley the following Sunday and, if
necessary, the third and final battle
at Ell Centre on April Is. The team
that wins a game is entitled to all Of
the net gate receipts.
"Doc" Tucker of Seeley and Louis
J. Ivey have been engaged as UNI
p.res for the series. Tucker will Of
ficiate on balls and strikes, with Ivey
covering the bases. The umpires have
been given wide authority, permitting
them to bench players who become OBJ
streperous. Fines will be assessed
if necessary and taken out of the for
felt money.
To make it the very best baseball,
each team has been granted the priv
ilege of signing up star players from
the Imperial and Calexico clubs. It
is understood that Seeley is making
a bid for the services of Jimmy Dean,
Pitcher Easter and First Baseman
Floyd Bragg of the Calexico club.
Ell Centre has a number of crack play
ers in view to strengthen weak spots
in the lineup.

APATHY
IS HINDER|NC
BOND ISSUE
SIGNING
Listlessness on Part of Val.
ley Property Owners Is
Severe Handicap.

Reports from Los Angeles co the
officials Of the Irrigation District tell
of many signatures obtained to the
copies of the bond petiLi 4 among
those residents of Los Angeles and
vicinity owning propert, in Imperial
county. The mails are daily bringing
more names to help swell the total
and bring the calling of the bond elec
tion nearer. The mutual water com
panies have all reported excellent pro-
gress in getting signatures to the
petitions in their charge. Copies Of
the petition, accessible at all the
banks, leading business houses and
offices in the valley. show a daily
increase in number of subscribers.
Lack of greater interest in the
bonding plan among local property
owners is a factor that is considered
partially responsible for delay m
calling the election. Nor. than sc
per cent of the valuation OF property,
according to the Irrigation District
Assessment rolls, is repres snted by
the signatures obtained to the pe;,-
tion to date, yet the law requires a
majority of the individual property
owners.
The plan to issue bonds to the
amount of $2,5OO,00O to make i'm
provements to the irrigation works
has been strongly endorsed by cham
bers of commerce, county Supervisors,
mutual water companies and large
property owners and the necessity of
the work plan is admitted. Well
known engineers, including State In
gineer w. F. Mcclure, have recon-
mended the program of improvements
to the irrigation system.
