 Precisely" she answered. There was a time when I'd stay In town close to people, hoping to find dis traction and forgetfulness In that way. Now I know a better plan. I get up early and fix up nice little lunch and get away; out in the open, where there Is some water to look at and blue sky to dream un- der. There's strange peace that passeth understanding, getting off like that l like to sit on one of those little old benches in a park, by the water, early In the morning be- fore the crowd dominates the place, and let the breezes blow through my hair and over my face and bask in the glorious sunlight.

 "You don't lunch alone?" I queried.
 Certainly I do," Nancy replied. Didn't I say it was spending the day with myself? At that stage of the game I wouldn't disturb the deep peace that has come over me by associating with myself for the world!

HOOVER'S VISIT
MEANS MUCH TO
IMPERIAL VALLEY

The visit of Herbert Hoover, secre-
tarv of commerce and chairman of the
Colorado River commission, may mean
great things for the Imperial Valley.
This visit is something more than the
casual viAt of Il statesman, intent,
perhaps, on building up following for
himself. Secretary Hoover comes here
with no such intention. 1t is. the visit
of n great engineer to famous irri-
cation project, to see just how that
project can be further benefited.
1t also means that the eyes of the
outside world are ON the Imperial Val
ley. From one end of the coun-
try to the other the name of
the Imperial Valley viii appear
in the newspapers. little and big, and
attention will be drawn afrcsh to this
marvellous valley. Now, while public
attention is focused on Imperial Val
ley is the time for the inhabitants to
show that they merit that attention.
We are on the verge of n re-birth.
The big post war shake down has come.
Some of us have suffered heavily by it,
but we have learned something. Just
how much We have learned viii be
shown bv future events. If the Valley
brushes aside all transitory schemes
if the Valley settles down to sound
farming and sound business methods
and builds for permaneney and for
the futurG, then the word will go
abroad that Imperial Valley has come
into its own and those in the valley
will realize it by an increase measure
of prosperity.
The visit of Secretary Hoover is
certainly an auspicious occasion, for
it means that in time the problem of
the Colorado River will be permanent
" solved and it comes at an oppor
tune moment, for it adds further i'm
petus to the movement inaugurated by
the consolidation of the water com
panies with the Irrigation District. It
will serve to give every one further
encouragement, more useful appli'
cation of the money derived from that
consolidation.
Now every farmer will go ahead and
expend his share of that money, as it
arrives, in thorough fertilization, better
leveling- and more thorough upbuilding

Feeling secure in his investment, he

he may fail to see the hand writing on

Democratic Senator Declares
Removed Surtax Would Have

President Harding kept faith with
1900 mIlIonaires paying surtax on
incomes over s6s. 900 a year and broke
faith with four million American sold
iers when he blocked bonus legislation.
Senator T. H Caraway, Democrat, Of
Arkansas, declared in a speech at VIII
lard Park last evening.
The taxes paid by the millionaires,
10 900 Of whom made their millions in
war profteering. would have paid for
the bonus. said the Senator. Instead,
Harding's program is to push through
a sales tax affecting the poor man
more than It does Rockefeller and

Attorney General Daugherty was
fayed for his rail strike injunction
moves "and yet some of you Will hold

ticket" shouted the speaker.

grounds it increased the cost Of living

Congress put a duty Of so per cent

He exhibited a pair Of undressed
kid gloves he said he bought in a
foreign country for 80 cents. For
these same gloves Americans must pay
SO because Of the duty. he said.
The ship subsidy and the Volstead
act, for which he said he voted, also
were condemned.
This Congress is the most ignorant
that we ever had, with all due respect
to it." said the Senator.
Caraway was introduced by Thomas
Taggart. Leo Y. Smith. Paul G. Davis
and Joseph P. Turk, nominee for con-
gresham, also spoke.
