penny wise and pound foolish" to save by
scrimping and yet spend money needlessly in
making your everyday purchases.
Has it ever occurred to you that every day
you can save something simply by reading the
advertisements in this paper? Do you realize
that the advertisements tell you just where and
when to buy to advantage they tell you
how to avoid regrettable expenditures?
Thrifty folks realize that advertising has
reduced the selling costs of thousands of fac

count as necessities or simple luxuries could
not be sold at anything like their present prices
had not advertising created broad market for
them. 1t has made millions of sales at small

The Usual Fish
Story But the
Truth Will Out

County Clerk Cal Mousseau re-
turned this! morning from fishing
trip to Moreno Dam, and brought
with him the usual story about q
..'good catch. = However it has been
ascertained that instead of the
...62 big ones, which he reports,
the white light of truth reveals the
feet that his party did not catch
more than a dozen fish at the most,
and ''Chaflie Nice claims these
we're. small ones that had been
thrown back by other fishermen. . !.
Accompanying the county clerk
on the trip, was Glen Rice of Inn
perial Valley Hardware Conf
pany, who performed the brilliant
feat Of throwing his rod and line
into the lake while trying to cast.
This is said to be an extremely diff
ficult stunt and can only be per-
formed after considerable practice.
1t required strenuous work on the
part of Senor Rice and the county
clerk, to retrieve the 2l.75 outfit
from the bottom of the lake, the
job finally being accomplished by
means of fish hound, which the
party had the foresight to take
with them.

STILL WEARS GRIN
CampbelPs Defense to
Try to Prove Davis
Responsible

Charles Davis, = charged with
Lawrence Campbell for the murder
of Leslie Nichols on the desert east
of INLAND, January 20, changed his
plea of not guilty, entered at the
time of his arraignment, to guilty,
when the ease was called for trial
in Department No. l of the superior
court this morning.
When the court asked if the ease
was ready for trial, Davis announ-
ced through his counsel, Wilbur w.
Randall. that he wished to change
his plea. Standing up when called
upon by the court, with the same
grin that has, characterized him
throughout thu various phases of
the ease, he calmly announced that
he wished to plead guilty. The
court accepted the plea and an
nounced that sentence will be i'm
posed Friday afternoon at 3 o.
clock.
Mrs. Nichols, wife of the murder
ed man, with party of relatives,
was present in court and occupied
seats directly behind the lawyers
table. Mrs. Nichols was dressed in
deep mourning and followed the
proceedings closely.
Campbell repeated his plea of not
guilty and announced through his
counsel, Charles f. Scott, that he
would stand trial.
Car,nholI Trial Opens
Following Campbell's s plea of not
guilty, his trial Immediately opened
ana the selection of the jury began.
Charles +. Scott, appointed by the
court to defend Campbell, indicated
by his questioning that the defense
will tend to show that Campbell
was coearced by Davis into the
crime of killing Nichols. Prospect
i've jurors were asked regarding
their affiliation with the American
Legion, of which Nichols was n
member, and if such affiliation,
would prevent them from giving
the defendant a fair trial. Another
question asked was if the prospect
i've. juror believed a youth of Is is
more easily influenced by another
person than party of more mature
years. 1t is probable that jury
will be selected before court adj
iourns this afternoon and the tax
ing of testimony begun tomorrow.
Campbell Nervous
Campbell sat by the side of his
counsel, pale and nervous, evident
ly realizing the seriousness of his
position. Close at the hand were
the widow of the slain man and
other relatives, who took little, if
any notice of the accused.

out of the way but to no avail. He
said Figueroa and his companions
