FAITH.

When sorrow comes as come it must. r
In God man must place his trust.
There is no power in mortal speech !.
The anguish of his soul to reach,
No voice, however sweet and low
Can comfort him or ease the blow.
He cannot from his fellowmen
Take strength that will sustain him then.
With all that kindly hands will do, ~
And all that love may offer, too, a
He must believe throughout the test 4
That God has willed it for the best.
We who would be his friends are dumb,
Words from our lips but feebly come;
We feel, as we extend our hands,
That one Power only understands 4. !
And truly knows the reason why
SO beautiful soul must die.
We realize how helpless then
Are all the gifts of mortal men.
No words which we have power to say
Can take the sting of grief away
That Power which marks the sparrow's fall
Must comfort and sustain us all.
When sorrow comes, as come 1t must,
In God a man must place his trust
With all the wealth which he may own,
He then must meet the test alone,
And only he may stand serene
Who has a faith on which to lean.

WILD Man Shoots Up n Dance.

Lordsburg Liberal: on Monday
night the joyous wedding dance of
Antonio Padillo and Angela Perea
came to an untimely and CHASTITY
end. While the dance was at its
height, Mercede Hernandez, man
of about forty years, wild with
jealousy over little Antonio Domin-
guez fourteen years old, began
shooting wildly. Some say he shot
at the girl. others that he aimed at
his rival. whom he did not hit, the
bullet striking and breaking the
hin of Demetro Hernandez tof no
relation to the would-be murderer.)
The second shot LOGGED in the
thigh of Mrs, CruX Dominguez,
mother of the girl.
Wild excitement reigned, and in
the strife the fellow, who had
been disarmed, escaped in the dark
ness.
The injured will recover.

when he begins to talk of ailments
dire, to sigh all day and toast his
shins before a fitful fire. A man
grows old when he is prone to boost
the vanished time, to view the pres
eut with a groan, and swear it is a
crime. If l should live eight hun
dred years, composing helpful
rhymes, as Noah and such prophe-
tcers hung on in ancient times, I'd

New Uses for Asbestos.

Recent uses discovered for am
phibole asbestos are of the greatest
importance to industry. Finely
ground, it makes an excellent pol
ish for jewelry, woods or metals,
is being used for the teeth, mixes
well with soap, cleans dishes, tubs,
etc, as well as windows. Plastic
pipe coverings with special binder
mixed with the ground material
stand up well. Heavy veins of am
phibole asbestos were recently dis
covered on Staten Island, n. Y.

The Chicago Tribune says that Franklin Roose-
welt is but "onehaf of per cent Roosevelt" -
only fifth cousin of Teddy and having none of his
pep. That he got his navy job within week
after Wilson's election because of having bucked
his great fifth cousin and chosen at San Fran
cisco only with the idea that he could go out and
get progressive republicans to follow the Roose-
welt name. Says the Chicago paper: IF Franklin is
another Theodore, then Billy Sunday is a Mormon;
Elihu Root is Gene Debs and Bryan is a brewer"
What say to that rough stuff, Frank? Any 100 per
cent Roosevelt would get fighting mad at that

Dear me, Wiggy How forget

Don't you remember you promised
to so calling with me over to see
Mrs. Wibhlewobble, the duck lady,
today? Come along"
ooh, my goodness mel sakes
alive and some red flannel under
wear!" cried the bunny gentleman.
did | promise that?"
"You certainly did," shifted
Nurse Jane, land, just so you will
look nice here is a red flower for
your buttonhole," and going into
the garden she picked big red
geranium and fastened it on Uncle
Wiggily's coat.
ooh! oh! Do I have to wear
that" asked the bunny, fused up
like.
"Of course!" answered Nurse
Jane. "All gentlemen, when thevI

their buttonhOle."
But not red" cried Uncle Wig
gily.
Red is most becoming to you,
said Nurse Jane. Come along

on Uncle Wiggily's paw, real stylish
to call on her friend, Mrs. Wibble-
wobble, the duck lady, who was
the mother of Lulu, Alice and
Jimmie, the duck children.
Uncle Wiggily looked at the red
flower in his buttonhole and he
hoped he wouldn't meet Grandpa
Goosey Gander or Mr. Whitewash,
the polar bear gentleman.
They'd surely laugh at me for
wearing a red flower" thought |
the bunny. SO, every now and
then, he took off his tall silk hat, |
as thought it was too hot for his
head and he held it over the red
posie in his buttonhole-he held |
his hat, | mean, not his head.

"Oh, no." answered Uncle Wig |
gily. And he didn't want to tell
her he was feeling bit silly about
her flower.
At last Uncle Wiggily and Nurse
Jane reached the duck house of
Mrs. Wibblewobble.
"Oh, come right in" she quack-
ed. "And how nice and stylish
Uncle Wiggily looks with that red
flower on his black coat"
Yes, but 1 guess he wouldn't
have worn it if 1 hadn't made

other sniff through her whiskers.
He doesn't know what style

James V. McCintic. Seventh District

Like great many people of western
Oklahoma, Mr.. McClintic was originally
Texan. He was the first representa-
tive to congress to be elected from the
seventh district of oklahoma when the
state was re-districted and given addi-
tional congressman. He is now serving
his third term and is one OF the men
whom Imperial valley needs to solve its
water problem. He has great influence
with the congressman of the South and
Southwest and probably no man in the
national house of representatives can
do more effective work if he can be
properly interested. Mr.. McClintic is
not in any way personal booster and
because Of his failure to boost has not
secured the prominence in the news
papers that many men of less ability
have attained. If you have any way to
reach him do not fail to do so because
he is one of the men to whom we must
look for help.

Any former resident of Oklahoma is
bound to remember his congressman.
because OF the chaotic political condi-
tions which ruled following statehood
Oklahoma was the last remaining bit of
the border line between the solid South
and the equally soulid North and both
political parties made tremendous ef-
forts to gain control. Because of these
conditions men who attained to suffici-
ent prominence to be elected to congress
left their impress upon the communi-
ties in which they lived. Present I'M
perial valley residents who came from
Oklahoma We're undoubtedly partici-
pants in the political campaigns there
and still have friends of influence.
1t is now universally recognized that
it is the duty Of every Imperial valley
resident to get behind the Kettner bill
H. r. No. 1853 which provides for the
construction of an all-American canal
and soldier settlement in Imperial val
ley as well as the solution of the inter-
national water question with Mexico
To insure the passage of the bill it will
be necessary to secure the support and
vote of the congressman from Oklaho-
ma and the best way to reach them is
through the former Oklahomans now
living in the Valley.
Write to that congressman whom
whom you know, urging him under the
plea of your friendship to support the
measure, tell him how much it means to
you, tell him how much it means to the
ex-soldier returned from the wars, prob
ably broken financially and to whom
the country owes so much. Get in
touch with Secretary McIver of the I'M
perial Irrigation District at the Ell Cen
tro office if you conveniently can and
he will furnish reasons why Imperial
valley must have this legislation.
Also send letters to your friends in
Oklahoma asking them to take up the
matter with the congressman. Con-
gressmen from Oklahoma are going to
vote on the Imperial valley bill soon,
you can help them to decide whether
the bill is desired, important and ur-
gent. Write your letters Immediately.
These letters which go to members of
congress should be addressed to House
Office Building, Washington, d. c. Send
a copy Of every letter you write to
Secretary McIver at Ell Centro.

Dict Il. Morgan, Eighth District

Dick Morgan is typical Oklahoman.
He came to old Cherokee strip before
statehood and was a power in territor-
ial politics during the formative days.
He is now serving his sixth term in con
'gress and has an extensive acquaint-
anceship and much influence with his
colleagues. Mr.. Morgan is one of the
best friends Imperial valley has and it
should be a pleasure to his old friends
to write him in the interest of the
Valley. Pleasing in personality, tactful
in manner, and a shrewd political lead
er Mr.. Morgan can and will be of great
aid in the passage of the Kettner bill,
and it behooves all who know him to
let him know that you appreciate his
services. Write him at once.
