BETTY MAY AND THE
SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS
Betty May Writes Home and Tells of
What She Saw in the Stores

Betty MAY had had "A wonderful day.
She had spent almost all of it down
town looking over all the lovely Christ
mas goods on display aud she had not
only looked but she had bought Christ
mas presents for almost all the folks
at home. Now that the day was over
and she was sitting across the library
table from Jim, who was reading the
Imperial Valley Press, she decided to
write a letter home to her mother.
Betty had only been married six
months and her mother had not yet
gotten used to her being way out in
California in the Imperial Valley.
Her mother, back in Chicago had not
quite gotten over the idea that all the
country west of the Mississippi river
was still frontier, where all the men
wear pistols, and Indians are to be seen
almost any time.
Betty May smiled to herself every
time she thought of how her mother
viewed California and she made up
her mind, as she sat down at the pretty
desk Jim had bought at the Imperial
Valley Hardware Company, and took
up her pen, that she would try her
best this time to make her mother see
I'll Centre just as it really is
''Dear Mumscy," she began, 81 have
been out shopping all day and have had
just wonderful time. suppose you
thought that all | could buy around
here would be Indian blankets and
bows and arrows and Mexican icwelry,
| have tried often enough to tell you
differently.
eff you could be bliudfoldcd and
sunddcnlv transported to FL Centre,
the only difference you would be able
to find between it and any town of
the same size in the East would be that
the business district is ever so much
better built and the stores ever so much
more up to date. Yes, and of course
the climate is different just lovely
sort of an carly summer all winter.
"Anyway, after making up my laun-
dry and sending it off to the Valley
Steam Laundry where they wash 1T in
soft water and from which it is always
sent home spick, span and lovely ana

take him any time to find that | had
a cracked spark plug. AS he put in a
new one, he remarked that Jim ought
to give the ear a Christmas present Of
new battery and l told him | would
write Santa Claus letter about it.
When | started on, the car ran perfect
ly and | was back in good humor in
a few moments. | then stopped at
Hallawcll Brothers Service Station and
left the spare tire, as i'm had told me
to be sure and not forget to do so, as
it needed vulcanizing and the Halla-
well Brothers did the best work in town.
Mr.. Hallawcll told me that it would be
ready in couple of hours as they al
ways pridcd themselves on their quick
work, but | told him not to hurry as
would not need it until afternoon.
81 parked the ear and went into Ed
gar Brothers to look over their PyrcX

casserole to give to sister Mary and
then l saw such cute Kiddic Kart
that | bought it for Cousin Jim S little
boy. ] am sure it will delight him,
Then | stopped in at the Imperial
Valley Hardware Company, attracted

ano selection there. That s the real
test of II phonograph. If it can make

to hear the free recital and recreation

ways so reasonable anyhow | phoned
Jim IS office from there to get him to

was out at the New Southern Barber
Shop getting a shave and a massage
and would not be back for half an hour.
! was disappointed but forgave him,
because he always looks so nice after
he has been there. | got in the car and
started home, but stopped i'll ut the
Marsh Dry Cleaners to see if they
had been able to get the coffee stain
out of my party dress and was much
surprised when they showed it to me
| for the stain was all gone. Back East
| | never found II shop that could take

SOME people read much. but do
very little thinking. They see the
words in print before them, but not
the great fundamental truths that
inspire those words. The habit Of
reading is one of inestimable value
to the individual, but it should not
be carried beyond the point where
intelligent thought can dissect the
subject and master the secrets that
are not otherwise revealed. Cram
ming the. mind is like jamming the
cylinder of an engine. 1t becomes
too tight to function, and is thus
rendered useless, Read little,
think lot, and you will travel
easier and go farther on your way.

CARPENTER, idol of the French
prize fighting ring, was Knocked
out by Jack Dempsey, American
pugilist who fought nothing worse
than mosquitoes during the war.
Now Mr.. Carpenter has been
knocked out by negro practically
unknown to the sawdust ring. A
few more knockouts from gentlemen
of doubtful standing may induce
him to knock himself out of the
business of battering other people
up for money and do something
that is really worth while. AS a
soldier during the war Carpenter
made an excellent record. AS a
professional bruiser he is outclassed.
He has yet time in which to become
a man.
