is reading little black book. Workman greets
him and rhey exchange few words. "Not
worried, are youg' the organizer asks.
'"Not much, !" the miner replies. "Fact is,

no anxious thought for the morrow" He
marks his page in the little Testament and con-

cmders over the meadow. ",The noise of them
trains is all the trouble we have here" he
smiles.
'Apy mon going back to work asks the
organizer.
''Nope,' says the miner; seems like the
boys is all very patriotic in this fight"

President Victoriano Huerta.

active candidate to succeed President
CarranZa. When the recent victorious
revolt against President Carranza be-

the fall of the Carranza regime, Cen

Varne.y Brothers
Con1plimented BY
Big Shoe Paper

A very interesting article, telling
of the method by which the Varney
Bros. & Co. is endeavoring to break
the present H. c. of l.. and at the
same time assisting the fair price COM
mittee of this city, appeared in the
Boot and Shoe Recorder, publica-
tion issued weekly in Boston, Mass,
in the interest of the manufacture of
leather goods.
The item appeared under the head,
Fair Prices in Practice" and illus
trated the shoe week conducted in the
seven Imperial Valley stores. 1t told
of the manner in which the company
worked in conjunction with the fair
price committee. The plan was orig
mated by l.. M. Hackleman and A. c.
johnson. The former is general shoe
buyer for the company and previous
to the campaign purchased a large
supply making ready for the large de-
mand that would be made on the stores
as soon as the news was made public.
The latter conducted q county wide adj
vertislng campaign featured by a dis
play of more than 1000 shoes of every
style.
A picture of the FL Centro show
window, showing over 270 distinct
styles accompanied the picture. 1t was
taken by Leo Hetzel. Speaking of
the picture the Recorder said, eve
present the photograph and tell the
facts in the case as an example of
a well-thought-out cooperative plan
on the part of the Ell Centre firm to
overcome the evil propaganda Of
''shoe- -profteering" now rife through
out the country. Varney Bros. & Co.
fair price windows have certainly been
of assistance to all the merchants in
California;"
