A remittur from the State Court Of
Appeals received this morning by
Judge M. w. Conkling, of Department
2, Of the Superior Court, settles for
all time one of the oldest land suits
in the Imperial Valley, which original
ly grew out Of the faulty surveys made
in the early days of settlement here.
The title of the suit is that Of Geo.
Kendall against S. Bunnell, and was
first filed in 1908 on a contest for the
possession Of a valuable tract of farm
ing land near Holtville. The United
States Land Office awarded the land
to Bunnell.
Kendall appealed to the state court
and in a long drawn out fight was
awarded title to the land. Bunnell, who
is a resident Of San Diego, carried the
case to the higher court where it has
been fought back and forth on techni-
cal points mad construction Of old rec
ords for several years. In the decision
just handed down by Presiding Judge
Frank j. Finlayson, the title to the
land is restored to Bunnell.

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 19.- Holly

Chaplin is free to wed, and rumors
are flying fast.
Hollywood is generally agreed that

Richard Dix, it is said, improved
each shining moment that Chaplin
spent on his recent trip to Europe,
and is generally believed to have won
the hand of Miss Collins.
1t won't be Clair Sheridan, the
sculptress, rumor asserts. Local news
papers are just now ironing out a
first class verbal war resulting from

Chaplin studios as saying "Miss Sheri-

CHICAGO, Jan. 19.-Flimsy garb of
girls spells peril to the race, DIR. Clara
P. Seippel, eminent womans specialist,
said today.
The sturdy type of American wo-
manhood is becoming extinct and a
frail, scrawny species is in process of
evolution, the physician declared.
Rolled hose and short skirts are the
present expressions of extreme dress
which started some years ago and re-
suited in the immaturity of the sex
of the present generation, DR.. Seippel
said.
There is no doubt" said DR.. Seip-
pei, who treats thousands of girls and
young women each year, "but that the
girl of today is not as we'll developed
as the one of twenty years ago.
Nov, we have the girl of straight
lines, not the well proportioned girl
of yesterday.

Irrigation Directors
Visit Pescadero Cut

'The raging Pescadero is some place
for boating!"
So announces party of officials of
the Irrigation District, who have just
made the trip in motor launch from
the head of the cut to point 20 miles
down the new course of the turbulent
Colorado.
The trip was made by Chief Engi-
neer Ray S. Carberry, Director Roy
Breedlove and Director Mark Rose,
with River Superintendent F. G. Hig
ley, in charge of the launch in which
the trip was made.
1t was the desire of Engineer Car
berry and the directors accompany
ing him on the trip to learn just how
the new channel of the big river is
acting and to make observations of
the conditions along the lower reaches
of the cut.
The new channel was taking up a
flow of about $500 to 1000 second feet
when the party undertook the trip
The water in the cut itself at the june
ton with the Bee was 16 foot in depth
and flowing rapidly. Under steerage
power only, the trip down stream with
the current was made in slightly more
than one hour. To cover the return, ~

has no protection against the cold.
She may as well wear nothing from
her knees down.
This causes the body to become
frail, as the bodily heat, so necessary
to proper development, is dissapated.
A decade ago girls We're muffled from
ears to feet as men are today.
"The modern girl has an Unsuitable
desire for candy. This is because heat
of the body is spent rapidly due to
scant clothing. 1t is natures way of
trying to furnish more fuel for the
tissues"
DR.. Seippel stated many of the ills
of womankind are caused by constant
exposure over a period of years. This
condition is aggravated, she said, by
the present day tendency of young
girls to stay out late at night, thereby
missing the rest so necessary to pro-
per development.
MANY young women have been
kept from motherhood because they
did not dress adequately during their
girlhood," DR.. Seippel declared.
