Miss Meyer, 70,
Falls Dead at Car

On Sunday, May %, was laid to rest
one OF our oldest and most faithful
workers of Trinity Lutheran parish,
Miss Charlotte Meyer. Miss Meyer
was born in Germany seventy-two
years ago and came to this country
when quite young. She was resi-
dent of Grantwood for about twenty
years and made her home of late with
her niece, Mrs. f. Mensching of High
land avenue. Rain or shine, she was
seen vending her way to her house of
worship.
Her last Sunday during life was
Pentecost Sunday, and it found her in
church. Even on Tuesday afternoon
she attended special meeting of the
Ladies' Aid apparently in good health
Great, therefore, was the shock when
on Thursday morning the news was
spread that Miss Meyer dropped dead
while waiting for Hudson River car
on Anderson and Columbia avenues
Palisade.
The funeral services were conduct
ed by her pastor, Rev. i. c. Weinlae-
der, at 10 a. M. at the Brentwood
English Lutheran Church. Interment
was at Lutheran Cemetery, Middle
Village, l.. /.

The supper given at the Congrega-

the supper began at Z O'Clock and a
number had to wait for a second
table,"
Fortunately the provisions sufiiced
and the menu was pronounced an ex-
cellent one. The service was prompt
and the hour was punetually observed,
under the able craftsmanship of Mrs.
Streyckmanns and her committee,
consisting of Mrs. Vaughn, Mrs.
Wright, Mrs. Rodamer, Mrs Haage,
Mrs. Cannon, Mrs. Thayer, Mrs. Mo-
dress and Mrs. H. Heaton.
One hundred and ten people were
present and there was silver collec-

At the close of the dinner there were
brief speeches of humorous interest
by the pastor, Rev. N. c. Cause; Mr..
J. r. Frdlington, Mrs N. b. Hartman,

SIX CLUBS FOR
VALLEY LEAGUE

Baseball in Imperial Valley will, it
is believed, reach the top line this year
This was indicated by the enthusiasm
which marked the meeting just held in
Ell Centre when representatives from
six valley points were present.
President Kelly who will in all
probability again be elected to the
placed, presided and Capt. G. w. Stew
ems was present from CaleXico and
Bob de la Vega from Mexicali.
AS it stands now there will. be six
clubs in the league, CaleXico, Ell Cen
tro, Imperial, Brawley and Calipatria
with as strong teams as it will be pos
sible to get. The report that there
would be no professional players ad-
mitted is wrong as the best players
that can be secured will be found in
the various teams.

laws and on drawing a form of con-
tract which all players must sign,

UNMARRIED BY PLoW's TOUCH
ROLLING Plains a Scene Of Great Beauty
Before the Advent Of the
AgrlcUIturist.

Seventy years ago :. Indians Wef0
Indians, and the plains were the plains
indeed.
Those plains stretched out In lifnit-
less rolling swells Of prairie until they
met the blue sky that on every hand
bent down to touch them. In spring
brightly green, and spangled with WHO
flowers, by midsummer this prairie
had grown sere and yellow. Clumps
Of dark-green cottonwoods marked the
courses of the infrequent streams
for most of the year the only note OF
color in the landscape, except the Drill
liant sky. On the wide, level river
bottoms. sheltered by the enclosing
hills, the Indians pitched their conical
skin lodges and lived their simple
lives. IF the camp were large the
lodges stood in q wide circle, but II
only few families were together, they
were scattered along the stream.
In the spring and early summer the
rivers, swollen by the melting SHOWS,
were often deep and rapid, but little
later they shrank to a few narrow
trickles running over bed Of sand
and sometimes the water sank wholly
out of sight.-George Bird Grinnal.

Falling Prices Due
to Propaganda.

Six months ago ninety-nine out
of every one hundred Of our popula-
ton not living on farms were
roofing, as they say at the base
ball games, for the prices OF farm
products to come down. Prices
have come down and so have the
business and profits Of those short
sighted merchants, manufacturers,
and laborers Whe were hollering for
lower prices for the other fellows
products. Business can never be
good, nor can the non-f farming
population be prosperous when the
farmer is producing at little or no
profit, and certainly not when he
must sell ut loss. The reason is
plain. The farmers are our largest
producers. They produced $685.
900, 100000 in 1919, and they con-
stitute in numbers about 40 per
cent Of the. buyers; therefore, it
ought to be evident to any merchant
or laborer that when the farmer
produces at a loss, the buying power
of the country is crippled and mer-
,chandising cannot be profitable. Ii
the present price of cotton, for in.
stance, were the result of the free
and unhampered influences of sup
ply and demand, no one would have
a reason to complain; but it is not,
it is almost entirely due to the pro-
pagander for lower prices and its
consequent effect on those who con.
troll the credit and finances Of the
country. There is not more cotton
nor less demand than last year, but
less, money available for handling it
and an organized effort to force
prices down. The Progressive Far

Young Financjer Forgot That Banks
Relations With It's Clients Must
Be Confidential.

Banks and bankers give much time
and attention to the training Of their
apprentices. The head of big down
town institution was once giving lee
ture on the work of the paying teller
and, as Homer occasionally nodded,
this man felt justified in lapsing, to-
ward the end of his talk, into an in
formal narrative of some of his early
experiences. He told of the natural
reluctance of a bank to refuse to cash
a check for one entitled to the money
who might not be fully or regularly
identified and Of various ways In
which an experienced teller satisfies
himself Of an applicants good faith.
"Once charming young woman pre-
scented small check at my window"
said the speaker. "She was transpar-
emily honest, but had no acquaintance
in the bank nor any letters or other
