Mrs. Jenkins Recital
PIedses Big Audience

Performing before capacity
house last night the violin and
cornet pupils of Mrs. Marie Jen-
kins gave an excellent recital at the
Baptist church which held the in
terest of the audience until the last
note had died away. Playing en-
tirely from memory, the young mu-
steal students acquitted themselves
in fashion ereditable to both
themselves and their teacher.
Among the numbers worthy of
special mention were the opening
march by the orchestra, a eornet
solo by Arthur Schultz, a violin 7iu-
ct by Dorothy and Charley Taylor,
a cornet solo by Eldridge Seymour,
and violin solo by quincy Hunt,
A eornet duet, "The Pals, by
Mrs. Jenkins and Arthur Schultz,
Miss Josephine Williams violin
solo 'tMazurka De Concert and Miss
Jewel Edwards rendition of "Cad
inpina" were perhaps the numbers
most appreciated by the audience.
The violin trio by Josephine vii
liams, Quincy Hunt and Margaret
Linekin was given with excellent
expression. The work of the "kin-
dergarten class" of the four young
est violin pupils was also much en-
joyed.
Mrs. William Reed as accompan-
ist acquitted herself in her usual
charming manner.

Fame of Cherry
Day" at Beaumont
Has Spread Afar

1t was only comparatively
short time ago that Beaumont was
all uncertainty. In common with
the pioneers of other sections of
California the early settlers perse
vered i'll their search for product
best suited to the conditions of soil
and climate prevailing in this noun
tain town.
The perseverance of these early
Beaunlonters was rewarded. 1t was
found that the cherry attained a
state of perfection rarely equalled
in other localities. Out of this dis
covery has grown the cherry indus
try which assumes larger proper
tions every year.
Five years ago the first cherry
festival was held. 1t was a small
affair lasting only one day and was
relatively unimportant. Last year
it. became necessary to extend the
festival over week in order to
care for the throngs of people who
came to see and to purchase this
wonderful fruit.
1t is expected that the Fifth An
nual Cherry Festival to be held on
June 7 will far surpass all previous
affairs.
There is every indication of a
good crop and for days after and
before the festival Beaumont will
be the Mecca for thousands of peo-
pie who feel repaid for driving
many miles to see the distinctive
crop in the fullness of its beauty.

The success of the first year of
the local Junior College has fully
justified its organization, and it IS
destined to occupy a very impor
tant place in the educational op-
portunities of Imperial Valley 1t
has fully come up to all eXpecta
tions in enrolment and in the sus-
tained interest shown by the stu
dents. The enrolment the past
year reached a total of 33 with the
unusual feature of having almost
three times as many young men as
young women. A very small per
cent of them dropped out before the
end of the year, which makes re
markable showing.
The personnel of the faculty and
the standard of work are on a par
with that found in the first two
years of our best colleges and uni
versities. The principal, j. L..
House, and Mr.. Shepherd, the dean,
have each had a number of years
experience in college and univer-
sity teaching, and understand the
requirements and problems of the
higher institutions. Perhaps one
of the best evidence of the success
of the past year is the fact that
the students themselves realize
that they have had real college in
struction and are enthusiastic sup
porterss of the Junior College. They
realize their good fortune at being
able to have these opportunities
near at home, for otherwise pro-
badly three fourths of those en-
rolled would have been deprived of
further education. Exactly &c 2-3
per cent of our last year s gradual
ing class continued their schooling
this year, whereas not more than %
per cent of any former class has
been able to continue in school.
Not a New idea
The Junior College is not a new
idea in this state nor in other
states. 1t has passed the expert
mental stage and has come to stay.
The tremendous increase in the
number of graduates from the high
schools and the resultant demand
for higher education has surpassed
the ability of the colleges and uni
versities to adequately care for all
who apply. We may confidently
expect in the near future, to see the
first two years of college work
transferred to the local junior col
leges throughout the country just
as the preparatory work has been
transferred to the high schools in
the past few years.
The work of the first two years
in college is practically the same,
no matter what special line the
student may take up in his ad
vanced study. After the second
year, he begins to specialize.
Whether it be in engineering, me-
dicine law, agriculture, or some
other field, these fundamental
courses can be obtained in our Jun
ior College at a minimum of ex-
pense. The small classes and the
close personal contact with the in
structor gave marked advantage
ever the university.
Do Better Work
1t has been repeatedly stated by
professors of the University of Cal
ifornia and of Stanford University,
that the graduates of junior col
leges who come to them are able to
Imperial Valley press., 1923-06-05

Educational Life of the Valley

do stronger work in the last two
years than the students who have
had the first two years in the uni
versities. Also many students are
admitted to the Junior College
whose high school record would not
admit them to the University. By
proper application and the close
contact and supervision of the in
structor these students are able to
strengthen their work so that they
may continue their education in the
university.
Imperial Valley is indeed FORUM
ate in possessing a junior college
and it deserves the hearty support
of the entire valley. The indica-
tions are that the enrolment next
year will at least double that of
this year.

Produce Dealers
Buy Industrial
Site Near City

Emphasizing the growing import
ance of Ell Centre as the shipping
center of Imperial county, Catan
zaro Brothers, produce dealers, with
headquarters at Pittsburgh, Pennsyl-
vania, have purchased a large indus
trial site just east of the Imperial
Valley Cotton and Oil Company s
plant northeast OF the Southern Pa
cific station.
The property comprises nearly
six acres and is known as the Arthur
Long stock pens and shipping yard.
1t has been held for some time by
the Cudahy Packing Company, the
grantor in the last transaction, and
is bordered on the south by the
Holton Interurban railway and has
a Southern Pacific side track run
ming through the center of the track
from east to west, connecting at one
end with the Southern Pacific and
at the other with the Holton Inter
urban.
Will Build Soon
The purchasers consider their new
holding one of the best tracts in Ell
Centre for packing and shipping
purposes. They plan to build a
large vegetable packing and ship
ping warehouse on the southwest
corner of the tract, construction be-
ing planned for the near future.
The remainder of the property will
be held by the new owners for fu-
ture development or subdivision iuto
small industrial sites.
Catanzaro Brothers are among
the larger produce concerns of the
Pittsburgh district, and for several
years have been heavy operators in
Imperial Valley, specializing in the
cantaloupe trade. They have pack
ing and shipping sheds at Heber,
which they will continue to operate
in connection with their local activ-
tiles.

alton was not mentioned in the

For every violation of her laws
Nature exacts a penalty: but she also
has wisely provided relief, especially
for the ailments Of the human sys-
tenn Since constipation Is the most
common Of ailments, Nature endowed
certain herbs, seeds, barks and leaves

used the extracts from these plants
