TRUCK EXPRESS To-
START BETWEEN
VALLEY AND [. A.

Announcement was received in
this city late Wednesday that the
railroad commission had granted a
franehise to the Los Angeles lmper-
ial Valley Express company to op.
crate u motor truck service between
Los Angeles and Imperial Valley
points. The Pioneer Truck and
Transfer company is directly inter
ested in the new concern and will
represent its interests in Imperial
Valley.
The new express company is back
ed by men in Los Angeles, among
them being Fred NJ. Hodge and John
ID. kwis. Preliminary hearings on
the ease were held here last April
in this city and decision in the
matter had been held up until Wed
nesday when the franchise was
granted.
According to Percie Thacker of
the Pioneer company, and overnight
express service VII be inaugurated
from valley points to Los Angeles
and in the warm weather, special
refrigeration service will be pro-
rided TO insure getting perishables
into the city in good shape. A fleet
of trucks and trailers will be inaug-
urated for the new service, which
will begin about December lJ.
The same express company is now
engaged in !; similar truck express
service between San Joaquin val
ley points and Los Angeles for some
years. They have also been haul
ing the butter output OF she I'M
perial Valley Milk Producers asso
citation from Holtville into the An
gel City for some time.
In. addition TO their overnight eX-
press service, n 24hOur freight ser !,
vice will be carried on for the heavy !
.onnage, a service that will no doubt I,
make a decided hit with local busi-
iess concerns.
This is the first refrigeration-ex-
'ress service by truck instituted in
he valley and it is expected that it
will fill a definite need of the
aany sections it will serve.

majority want pepper trees between
Firth and Eighth on Olive. An es-
timate had been secured of the cost,
which the council considered too
high, and recommendation was
made that yearling trees be planted
as against trees of two years and
older.
Discuss Tree Irrigation
The matter of keeping the city
trees watered properly was gone into
at length, but nothing was decided
ON. 1he opinion was expressed that
the men who did the watering did
too much sitting around, and Trus-
tee Fawcett was of the opinion that
the city was not getting enough for
what it spent.
Engineer Dyer was of the same
opinion, and explained that the
parkways were TOO narrow and re-
quired too much attention. Trustee
tawcett favored constant irrigation
instead of intermittent, which did
not soak the ground below suffici-
emily, and it was the opinion of the
board that some scheme should be
introduced by which property owners
would be allowed a certain amount
OF water if they took care of the
trees fronting on their lots, which

city engineer.
information vas received from the
Missouri State Life Insurance com.
pany that the form in which the
trust deed is made out, dealing with
the y. A., Ross property of 90 acres
which the city is purchasing, re-
quired the execution to be made by
fhe trustee, NJ. L. Singleton, who
will not return till December %, and
the council decided TO wait until
then when the whole matter can be
cleaned up.

Irrigation District is very~ Yitally
interested in bringing about this

concessions if the main objects can

to make concessions that viii defeat

AGED SOFIA RESIDENT GARFIELD
TO GRAVE-POSTPONMENT
OF FUNERAL SAVED HIM

SOFIA, April 15-Uncle Stoimen,
of Custendil, is peeved.
He doesn't think his folks treated
him right. In his opinion they had no
right to try to bury him before he
was dead.
Uncle Stoimen is one of the patri-
archs of Custcndil, having dwelt in the
small city, which was built by Con-
stantine the Great, all of his 10 years.
He was always considered one of the
tough old chaps who seemed certain
to live to be 100.
Recently, however, Uncle Stoimen
complained that he did not feel very
we'll and took to his bed. He dropped
off to sleep and failed to awake. The
doctor looked him over and told the
family that their worthy uncle had
passed to his reward.
Great preparations were made for
Uncle Stoimen's funeral, for he is one
of CustendiPs favorite old men. He
was bathed, dressed in his best clothes,
and the medals which he won, in the

A long line of sorrowing relatives
and oW-townsmen followed Uncle
Stoimen's coffin toward the cemetery,
where a newly dug grave had been pre-
pared for his last long sleep. Custen
dill was ali prepared to bury the pat
riarch but the elements interviewed. A
heavy snowstorm came on and soon
filled to the brim the grave intended
for Uncle Stoimen's interment. The
officiating priest decided to postpone
burial to the next day, and Uncle Stol-
men was carried back to the church.
During the night, however, Uncle
Stoimen apparently changed his mind
about dying and in the ghostly hours
of early morning he reused himself,
knocking the lid off his coffin and be-
gan yelling for help. The only help in
the vicinity was the sextom who re-
sponded to the cries. When he saw IN
Gle Stoimen struggling to get out of
the coffin, the sexton promptly keeled
over and there was no stammerlng

Uncle Runs Home
Uncle Stoimen escaped from the
chapel and dashed through the streets
to his home. Townsmen, who had
risen early 50 they could get their
work done in time to be present at
his burial, were dumbfounded. When
