METHoBISTS To HONOR
FAMOUS HYMN WRITER

An unusually interesting evening is
arranged for at the Methodist Episco-
pal church next Sunday at 1880 p. m.
The pastor of the church, Harold O..
Perry, will treat the life of Fanny
Crosby in a Book Sermon" The
evening will be continuous song
service as from time to time the best
of her hymns will be used. These will
also be used as special numbers.
DR.. Perry will speak of the secret
of the greatness of Mrs. Crosby Van
Alstine's life, the effect of her blind
ness on her work and the reason for
her popularity and influence.
Fanny Crosby has probably writ
ten more sacred hymns than any 9th
er single person who ever lived. One
company paid her for 5000
hymns and it is more than likely that
her output was more than 5000.

be alleviated by becoming a part of
the national organization he explain

Local Union In Favor
The local union is heartily in ia
vor of the plan as presented by MI.

idaho YEARL|NGS, 26-0
(By Louis A. Boas)

Washington State college freshmen
this afternoon showed under the Ida
ho yearlings in the last gridiron game
of the season for the Idaho Babes,
26 to 0. Washington State college
won through a consistent barrage
directed against the Idaho line which
netted them a touchdown in each of
the four periods of play. Idaho was
unable to withstand the plunging of
the Cougar backs, and played a de-
fensive game almost entirely, threat
ening but once.
Two of the w. S. c. scores were the
direct results of Idaho breaks in their
own territory, the first and third
touchdowns following blocked punts
when within a few feet of the goaI
line. Reed, playing quarter, Jakey at
fullback, and Hanson, tackle, were
stars for the Cougar yearlings, Reed
accounting for two of the four touch
downs. -w ~
Yearlings Off Form
For Idaho, c. Hutchinson played a
hard game at center, proving most
effective in defensive work Miles
at left half shared honors with Pow
ers at quarter, as Idaho's most con-
sistent yardage gamers.

SPOKANE BANKER
TALKS ON CREDIT
GREENWOOD SAYS THAT EXCES-
SIVE LOANS HAVE PLACED
BURDEN ON INLAND EMPIRE

George H. Greenwood, cashier of
the Old National bank, Spokane, ad-
dressed the members of the Alpha
Kappa Psi at their regular monthly
dinner, on the granting of bank credit
and the credit situation in the In
land Empire.
Mr.. Greenwood's years of banking
experience in this region e-sabled him
to speak with authority on the sub
ject of bank credit, and the banking
conditions in general. For more
than an hounr his audience listened
attentively while he pointed out the
standards to be used in measuring
the amount of credit man should be
granted. 1--WE must look to more
conditions" said Mr.. Greenwood, 1--WE
must know more about the conditions
of the applicant and we must have
the applicant know more about his
own business"
Character Determines Credit
Character determines whether
man should be given credit, and ca
pacity and capital determine how
much he should be granted
Mr. Greenwood emphasized strong
ly the point that "capacity should
mean a mans earning power, and
liability show the present state of a
mans business, it doesn't show where
ne is going"
The speaker pointed out that in de-
a mans credit, his ex-
penses should be considered as well
as his income. A great many men
come to the bank asking for credit, |
who have sufficient income for a
oan, but their expenses are so large |
that they are very poor risk. He
also pointed out that the sales of a |
concern are more important than the
let worth, and that the operating
statement is of more Importance than
! statement of assets and liabilities. |
Credit Too Cheap In Past
Mr.. Greenwood remarked that our |
promise to pay ought to be as sacred |
is our promise to honor and obey. !
ind that the excessive granting of /
.redit in the Inland Empire in the |
asst few years had placed burden
lpon the farmer which he could not !
AIRY. Credit has been too cheap,
nd we are now reaping the harvest,
lie said. He predicted a general re-
djustment in the agricultural region,
ausing some farmers to go to the
vail, due more to excessive credit
rants than to low prices of agfcul-
ual products, but on the 9TH
I hand, he was optimistic about the
ituation, taken as a whole.
c. w. Renfrew, president of the
FIRST National bank of Moscow. was
dinner guest at the monthly dinner.

Resent Poets Photo on Money

S Berlin-(A. P)-Doctor Heuter,
director of the Frankfort Goethe
museum, says it is sacrilege to print
Goethe's picture on the almost value
less paper money. Frankfort rece<tly
issued a two-million mark note bear
ing the famous German poets por-
trait, and similar money has been is
sued by other German cities.
When Goethe was prime minis
ter of the little dukedom of Sake
Weimar, he strongly opposed the is
suance of paper money, and used to
say, paper money swallows at first
the silver and then ITSELF In
Faust" Goethe made Mephistophelies
the creator of sham paper money,
thus showing the dramatist's con-
tempt for that form of circulating
medium.

SERVICE FUNDS
Object to Provide Much
Needed Publicity For

Teams of workers from the Cham
Der of Commerce under the direc-
tion of r. H. Cary, have been solic-
iting merchants of FL Centre today
for contributions to the chamber s
service fund, pledges to which were
made last spring.
The object of the service fund IS
to provide means for giving need
cd publicity to FL Centro and I'm
perial Valley and to take care OF
current expenses in connection with
projects which are fostered by the
chamber. Among these are such ex-
penses rs contributions to the Bor-
derland Highway Association, the
Boulder Dam Association and sim
liar pOjects, which while not di-
rectly connected with FL Centre
alone, are movements in which El
Centre must share if it is to go
ahead with other communities. From
time to time the chamber is asked
to make donations of prizes and in
ours tAlEiol uihdi SAPSho,o an PiNf 9
noting affairs such as Dairy Day,
which was held here last winter.
President Scott pointed out today
that quite often, members of the
chamber who have attended meet
ings in other cities, which were to
benefit FL Centre directly or indi-
rectly, such as highway conferences,
railroad rate matters and similar oc-
easions, have had to pay their cx-
penses out of their own pockets, no
fands for this purpose being avail
able in the chamber finances.
The members of the committee
report that they are meeting with
splendid cooperation from those who
have been solicited.

take the Blythe route. Fortunate

INSECT PESTS
HOLDING BACK
EARLY LETTUCE
Quantity Shipments Will
Not Move Until First
of Year

Forecasts of the unusually early
movement of lettuce from Imperial
Valley this season seem to be I'M
founded, according to the opinion
expressed by County Horticultural
Commissioner Harrigan today.
Contributing causes which have
held the crop back slightly have
been the muddy irrigation water,
and the prevalence of worms and
crickets, which have flourishcd on
account of the unusually warm
weather. December 10 seems to be
a conservative date for the begin,
ming of the season, and though q
few ears may go out previous to this
time, it is doubtful if the real guam
tity shipments will begin before the
first of the year.
At the present time the damage
being done to the lettuce fields by
cutworms and caterpillars is so ser
ious that the Agricultural Extension
service, under the direction of Farm
Advisor Garthwaite, is arranging
lOG Il SGGlcS VI lltlu "
demonstrate methods of combating
these pests.
4 series of six demonstration
meetings which will cover all see
tions of the valley have been ar
ranged for, and while the exact To-
cation and time for each has not
been arranged for as yet, it is un'
derstood that FL Centre and Braw'
ley will have demonstrations on
Thursday, October 25, Westmorland
and Calipatria districts on Friday
October 26, and Calexico, Meloiand
and Holtville on Saturday, October
and Holtville on Saturday, October
o7.
Exact announcement regarding
these meetings will be made later
In the meantime all growers having
infested fields should plan to at
tend the nearest demonstration.
