STOCK SEASON Y
/ AT THE VALLEY
San Diego Company to
Play Dover Road"
Thanksgiving

FL Centro ut last is to be the home
of a first class dramatic stock com
pany, offering the most popular
high-royalty plays. The Strand
Players from San Diego will oper-
ate in FL Centre only, playing in
the new Valley Theatre. This viii
make it possible for the company to
give better productions and smooth
er performances.
The arrangement of the valley
cities is ideal for the company to
have permanent home and play in
only one theatre. 1t will take no
longer for patrons living in Braw-
leg, CaleXico and Holtville and other
valley towns to drive in to FL Cen
tro, than it did for patrons living
i'll East San Diego, and other San
Diego suburbs when the company
was playing there.
One reason why FL Centre and the
entire Imperial Valley should band
together TO assure this company of
Success and make it possible for
them TO remain here, is the fact that
this company, as an entertaining
medium, will serve to assist in keep
ing our young people interested in
amusements in Imperial Valley.
When the "Strand Players OPP
Ell at the Nallev>Theatre next Thurs
day night November %, they will
be seen in one of the 10 best plays
produced in New York last season,
namely, 1.-The Dover Road. -
Opsr Thanksgiving Night
1.-The Dover Road is from the
pen of A. A. Milne, author of many
other notable successes. This com
edv played for more than 800 per
formances at the Bijou theatre IN
New York last season, and was
credited by New York critics as be-
ing one of the most delightful plays
seen in that city in number of
years.
The plot of ''The Dover Road -
has to do with the efforts of an ec
centric philanthropist to prevent un-
happy marriages. Eloping couples
are his chief concern.
Harry Schumm will be seen in the
role of " Mr.. Latimer' which is the
leading role of the comedy. All the
other members of the company in
cluding Mercedes Shea, Lawrence
Marsh, John de Weese, Austa Pierce,
Sylvia Kennah, George Mathison,

TROUBLE IN COURTS

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-The
government and meat packers are
about to fight out in the courts the
long disputed question of the gov

The impending court battle over
this question has a vital bearing on

The real significance of the tilt,
however, will be in deciding whether

the Fraternal Order of Eagles con-
yenes in this city Thursday morning

enough pleasure woven into the three
days to take off the weight of the
grind.
Aside from the two dances that
will take place during the conven-
tion, preparations have been made to
show the visitors points of interest in
this section. Many of the delegates
have never been in this project cen
ter and in order that they may real
ize the scope of the valley and the re-
sources auto parties will be planned

gram for the three days and the

of large holdings to others who are
seeking improved lands where they
can Immediately get to work
The tendency to work smaller
acreage has developed over all of the
different projects and eolonized sec
tions of the United States. OF recent
date some of the finest holdings on
into small farm units, and every unit
has been sold and is in operation by
parties who are eontented to work
smaller sections of ground without
additional hire
This is the plan that is proposed,
and while it is not new 1t has beer
a success in other sections that have
suffered by the too extensive farm
The matter is to be taken up before
the different farm bureau divisions.
the chamber of commerce and others
who are interested in relieving the
overhead conditions and also brin 8
ing in settlers who can go onto land
without the pioneering feature that
takes so long to bring into profit
bearing conditions.
Should the plan meet the approval
of the people who will be approached
it will be possible to advertise this
summer and some results should fol
low. There is also a chance to inter-
est many of the people who tour this
section during the summer. The fact
that there is no real advertising of
resources and the advantages of this
project to the people at large has to
some degree prevented the settle
ment that the section deserved.
Some effort has been expended in
telling the people that We have water
and land in abundance, and the ap-
peal has been made to people to take
over homesteads. In this instance
the effort will be directed toward the
advertising of lands that are proven
ard in sections that are setteld and
water is distributed The belief mas
been expressed that this sort of in
dueement will come nearer meeting
public demand than the methods for
merly used. What has succeeded In
California can be done here with a
cooperative interest backing the
movement.
