Mrs. A. H. Griswold

A nice, long letter from Mrs. A. H.
Griswold says: 'No one reads your
columns In the Ell Centre paper more
diligently than l -. My thoughts and
interests are with the dear people
of El Centre more than any one real
ICES, and while l can not say 1 regret
our leaving, my heart is often filled
with great longing to see and mingle
with the dear friends and close COM
Partnerships of old" Mrs. Griswold is
member of the Boyle Heights Wo-
mans club which has a large men,
bership, and has met many friends of
former years in the organization, but
still retains a big place in her heart
for the Southern District club women.
The Griswolds are nicely located near
Hollenbeck Park on Boyle heights.
Mrs. Griswold expects to visit El Cen
tro in February or March when she
will receive a warm welcome from her
host of friends in this city.

chard, a District Deputy Grand
MAtron for the 10th District, COM
prising Imperial and Coachella VAL
leys, entertained at dinner last night
at the Barbara Worth hotel in COM
pliment to Grand officers of the

ciated Grand Patron, Mr.. and Mrs.

c. Blanchard, and John Norton.
The dinner guests with repre-
sentatives from all of the chapters OF
the County were later received with
royal welcome at Masonic Temple,
always beautiful but gorgeously so
on this auspicious occasion. Petted
palms and ferns with nunlberless
bowls Of China lilies, the gold and
yellow of the fragrant blossoms
blending in charming effect with
the blue of the room, converted the
assembly hall into a bower of lovii-
ness that will not soon be forgotten
by those attending. Large delega-
tions from Imperial Crown Chapter,
Calexico, Alamitos Chapter, Holtville
and Signal Chapter, FL Centro, were
welcomed by the reception committee
as they entered the hall. The work
Of the order of the Eastern Star was
beautifully and impressively exem-

and Closing; Alamites Chapter, lniti-
atory degree work and Signal Chap
ter, the very beautiful and dignified
Escort work When the Worthy
Grand Matron was escorted into the

eous and prolonged applause testify
ing in some measure to the very high
esteem in which she is held by men,
bers Of the organization which she so
grac;ously represents. Other Grand
officers and thirty Past Matrons and
Past Patrons Of valley chapters were
also escorted into the lodge room
with due ceremony. After the exem-
plification work, Mrs. Bradley was
presented with lovely sterling sill
yer sandwich tray as a small token
Of the love borne her by Imperial
Valley members. Mr.. Little, Worthy
Patron Of the Calexico chapter made
the presentation. Kindness" was
the theme of a mastery address de-
lirered by the Grand Worthy Matron,
Mrs. Bradley, as the closing feature
of the program. $50 many gods, so
many creeds, so many paths that
wind and wind when only the art OF
being kind is all that the old world
needs" With rare art Mrs. Bradley
brought out the full meaning of these
beautiful words by Ella Wheeler VIII
eek. The speaker so impressed her
wonderful personality upon the
hearts o. the people and her words
rang SO true, that the address is re-
garded as the climax of a most won
derfully impressive program. No
ether addresses were made, the
formal meeting being adjourned. Es-
corted by Mrs. Genevieve Norton,
Mrs. Bradley led the way to the ban
quet room followed by long line Of
officers and members of the order.

ADVERTISING DAILY
PRESS BRINGS
RESULTS

One of the many advantages that
has accrued from the consolidation of
the Progress and the Press is the
capable advertising service that the
Press can now give advertisers. This
fact is evidenced by the many reports
reaching the Press in regard to sales
being made, direct answers to ad-
vertisements.
In an issue of the Press last week,
T. L. Laereman Company carried a
small ad advertising washing ma
chimes. Two machines were delivered
this week as a direct result from the
advertisement. Needless to say the
Laereman Company will continue to
advertise in the Press.
