ABOUT OUR SUMMERS

The other day while were in one OF cur drug
stores we heard woman remark, We'll, am home at
last and YOU can bet that glad to be here, too NO
matter what anyone says about the weather III the I'M
perial Valley it is the only place for me, winter OF
summer"
We were glad to hear the woman speak TINS way
and thought that it worth passing on for the good
spirit that displayed If only more of Us and partc
ulary the women, would feel this way 1t would not
be long before people would not think OF SpendhS
so much of the summer away from home
This would put our business life on firmer basis
not to saw anv thing of our social and family lie
There is no doubt that the habit of sending the family
out for the summer particularly in cases where the
husband cannot afford it has been the first cause OF
trouble that has often ended in the breaking up OF the
home.
We would even go 1ar as TO suggest starting
.sstap at home this summer movement. The effect
would be reflected at in the increased prosperity
of the valley.
Of course we all like to take vacation now ana
then to get away for time from the every day duties
and tasks that prone to get rkome, and everyone
should be able to do this 1t is this neareXoduS now
ever that takes place every that we deplore
Often on our streets you hear remarks from people
stating that the heat the lack of altitude does not
agree with their health etc All these statements are
of purely imaginary ills and nine times out OF ten come
from some person looking for excuse to make
change For most every kind of malady this Is the
most agreeable climate that can be found.
Let us take stand now and kill this lie that has
been broadcasted about Imperial Valleys summers
The place to make the start is yourself II each one
does this the problem is solved.

DODGTNG 4 CETMP

The slight slackening noticed lately in various
lines of business has caused good deal OF apprehen-
sion among business men, On the whole, however, It
has probably been very good thing because served
as warning against initiation. The view Of the mat
ter is thus expressed by a Chicago steel man:
Until few weeks ago, believe, we were riding
to fall owing to the last ninemonth period of IN
creased selling prices, which were running to an un-
healthy level However, both buyers and sellers are
now taking inventory and believe the present uI IN
trade is good indication of wholesome business dur
ing the third and fourth quarters Of this. year.
can unfortunate element is found in the fact that
labor is taking no such inventory Labor continues to
increase its demands regardless of business tenden
cies.
Business, for once, has shown more self-reStraint
than labor It has tried to avoid the dangers into
which the country rushed during the last boom If the
present prosperity to continue and remain steady for
any length of time there will have to be more serious
effort on the part of labor to do its share by resist
ing wage initiation The public in mood to endure
extorton and excessive wages like excessive prices,
will kill the goose that lays the golden eggs

AGAINST PRIVATE FIREARMS

Police usually know what they talking about.
Their speciality is crime and they authorities
the immediate causes of crime The attention Of a
country suffering from prolonged crime should
be directed then to the unanimous resolution Of the
international police conference asking the governments
in the 27 countries represented to stop the traffic in
revovers and automatic pistols.
1t is these weapons, the police delegates declare
that are primarily responsible for the unusual volume
of crime since the The criminal spirit may exist
the original cause; but without powerful weapons,
ready hand easily obtained and easily concealed the
spirit would not be so likely to find expression
Not only does the presence of such weapons en-
courage crime 1t is also prolific Of accident
as thousands of American homes attest.
Domestic peace calls for the outlaWing Of small
arms just surely international peace calls for the
outlawing of armament. 1t would be blessing if the
manufacture OF such concealable firearms could be
brought under strict government supervision, and no
person be allowed to obtain gun" without a convinc-
ing reason for needing one and guarantee that he
would be responsible for its use.

CIVIC GREATNESS S

Speaking of "the true greatness Of a city, to an
audience representing city passed in population by
a neghboring city, speaker said the other day:
81 suppose it a terrible day of mourning tor
you when the word from the Census Bureau that
your chief rival had grown bigger than YOU
'The rating of cities by population is one OF the
great illusions of an age whose of values is en-
trely wrong.
1--WE overvalue knowledge and underyaue wisdom.
We overvalue play and undervalue work. We over
value phrases and undervalue truth. We overvalue
rights and undervalue duties We overValue the ma
jority and undervalue the minority. We oyervaue the
crowd and undervalue individuality We overvalue
power and undervalue beauty We overvalue size and
undervalue quality"
Here is enough boiled-down wisdom to occupy any
mind for while. The exposure of the population
mania is particularly apt. If numbers made great
ness China would be preferable to America. The test
of town is not how big it is but what sort of town it
is-not how many people it has, but what kind OF
people
