taking her to a deserted house to hold

mystery surrounding the disappear

baffled Investigators.
The youths detailed confession yes

Prosecutor Charles E. Wolverton of

The, first letter. received month ago,
was unsigned and was regarded as
the work of crank. The second

day and. though 1t gave the name and
address of Munroe, 1t also was re-
garded with doubt.
Prosecutors Doubts Removed.
He had no doubt now. however.
Prosecutor Wolverton declared, that
Munroe's confession was genuine and
that the youth had killed the girl. A
physician examined him and found
him perfectly sane. the prosecutor
said.
Munroe said he had kidnapped the
girl with the intention of holding her
for ransom. He had been without
work and thought the plan would
bring him some money.
In the confession he recited how

CLOTHES NOT FUNDAMENTAL
MRS. FlTZGERALD SAYS

Mrs. Fitzgerald, Women s club lead
er, declared here recently that women
talk and think too much about clothes.
She says clothes are not fundamental
but only incidental. 1t is not so much
what our girls wear as what their hopes
and aspirations are, the kind of ideals
the yare setting up; a more sympathetic
understanding of their associations and
aims. Help them to love truth and
beauty and virtue by living those
things before them, she said. She told
of work that is being done for young
people in other. places, mentioning that
the Woman's club at Taft opens its
clubhouse once a week to the young
people of the town for dancing and
music. The evening is properly chap
eroncd with group of club women
present each time. Mrs. Fitzgerald said
that while one might not approve of
dancing, the fact must be recognized
that our young people are doing it and
it is better that it be done under proper
conditions than in public dance halls
and at roadside houses.

The party then parted for the Rosen-

of young offshoots growing in hot
houses Messrs. Rosenberger an d
Gillett have entered into a contract
with the government whereby they
undertake to root l, 400 Deglet Moor
offshoots recently secured from the AL

permanent orchard form, return to the
government onefifth of the shoots,
and sell three-fifths to growers at q
price not to exceed $3.50 each. One
fifth of the offshoots are to go to the
private firm in view of their having
bourn all the expenses of this intro
duction.
The next stop on the schedule was
the Holmes Gardens. 1t will be re-
membered that $50 date palms were
transferred in 1916 from Heber to In

trees he could obtain. He visited the

TEN THOUSAND CLUB
SECTION MEETS
FOR PROGRAM

Mrs. j. S. Larew was hostess yester-
day afternoon to the Twice Told Tales
Section Of the Ten Thousand Club. The
living rooms of her pretty home on
State street were charming in floral
decorations grown in home gardens of
El Centre. Mrs. George Anderson who
gave the main feature of the program,
told most impressively the Russian
story "The Bet by Chekhov, which
has been read this winter by many
clubwOmen. 1t is Il problem novel, the
solution of which must be determined
by the reader. The question which
the bet was to have settled is not
answered by the author, and the wide
divergence of opinion as to whether
life Imprisonment or hanging is the
greater penalty remains unsOlved
Other questions arising out of the ex
periences seem equally as difficult to
answer and the animated discussions
following the telling Of the story found
wide differences as to the solution of
these as well rs to the primary one.
Mrs. Anderson happily relieved the
somewhat depressing effect of "The
Bet" by telling ''The Lottery Tick
et, a short, humorous story by the
same writer which is full of human ma
ture and can be readily appreciated by
every one.
Current events were given by each
member of the section present, this
feature being as always, most delight
full and bringing out an exchange of
opinions that is stimulating. At the
close Of the program, Mrs. Larew served
ice cream and dainty cakes and the
women enjoyed a delightful half hour
in visiting. Those present were: See

George Anderson, Mrs. c. +. Scott, Mrs.

UONOREE AT DINNER
WELL KNOWN HERE

Five hundred men and women recent
ly hOnored Miss Mary FOy of Los An
geles ut a great dinner given at the
Maryland hotel in recognition of her
service to the social, educational and
political life of the city. Miss FOy has
lived for many years in Los Angeles,
was the first librarian of that city and
taught for some years in the high
school. There are those now living in
FL Centre who attended the school and
were in her classes.
In late years, she has devoted herself
to politics being the recognized leader
Of the democratic women of the south.
This last year she has been giving a
series of luncheOns at the Maryland
attended by the women of the ninth
congressional district and such others
as have been favored by invitations.
Two hundred and more guests have
been present each time and have been
addressed upon living subjects of inn
portance by noted men and women who
have been in the city. The meetings
are non-partisan, though sponsored by
Miss Foy and many other of the lead
ing democratic women of the district.
The recent dinner given for Miss Foy
was attended by many of the most
distinguished men and women of the
United States who paid homage to the
rifted woman. Miss Foy has many
friends and acquaintances in Imperial
Valley who appreciate the honor paid
to her on the recent occasion.

A TIPLESS HOTEL
WINS FAME

The Grace Dodge hotel for women
which is located in Washington, ID. c.,
has gained fame for itself and the ap-
probation of the travelling public as
well. Recently the problem arose as
to what the management shall do with
the tips left under plates and other
places when the attendants are not by.
The staff, who are mostly colored, were
permitted to vote upon the disposal of
this fund and almost unanimously de-
cided that it shall be given to the
Phyllis Wheatley Y. w. G. A., negro
organization. The successful coopera-
tion gained with notipping' plan
is due to the proper adjustment of the
wage question in. the opinion of Miss
Augusta Lindsey the hotel manager
She says that all wages are scaled to
make it's absence both practical and de-
sirable. Any employe seen accepting a
tip is subject to immediate dismissal.
The Grace Dodge hotel was openc,l 1
last fall by the National Board Of tine
Y. W. c. A. and is run exclusively 70,
women who visit the capital.
