MANY WHO LEFT
THE VALLEY ARE
NOW RETURNING


| cit is the spirit of the people
that counts for more than anything
else in keeping up the morale of a
community "
This was the gist of an analytical
discussion of the situation in I'M
perial Valley by A. c. Johnston
when asked to state his opinion of
general conditions in the valley at
the present time.
Mr.. Johnston has been prominent
! in business circles during much of
the eight years. time he has been
resident here. Through his intel
ligent and active efforts, coupled
with the fine cooperation of his
partners, the firm of B. Salomon
and Company which they own, has
become an outstanding one among
all the business institutions of the
county.
"We are going along here
said Mr.. Johnston, Gin a very sat
isfactory manner. l would hesi-
| tate to compare boom days of the
war with the present, for those
were abnormal times when the sky
rocketing of cotton brought the val
ley into the limelight. But we
paid dearly for those experiences
through the reaction that came vio-
lently upon u.s.. The basis upon
which our present prosperity is
resting and growing is broader and
better than then.
More Normal Conditions
"The people are not suffering
from such d fever of excitement.
| They are in more normal frame of
mind, and this situation is more en-
during and dependable. 1t simply
means that we are going ahead with
| more confidence and are not harbor-
ing any fears of what may happen.
We are now looking forward to
better things, while then we were
wondering when we were going to
be hit blow that would stun us.
Mr.. Johnston is a keen observer.
He is a business man who makes 1t
a point to come into intimate con-
tact with his patrons and it is from
them he draws his conclusions and
his inspiration. "The people are
talking quite differently than they
did a year or so ago." he went on
TO say. ''I frequently meet some
oId-time resident who went out of
the valley TO look for better things |
elsewhere but who has returned I
here TO stay. They say there is. af-
ter all, no place like this. They
are pleased to get back. Just as |
their former attitude was an in |
Jury to the valley, so their present |
attitude is big help to it. The
manner in which they spend their
money for home convenienees and
personal comforts speaks louder
than their words. +"
Asked for some index of improve
ment as shown by his own business,
Mr.. Johnston stated that the new
business season, beginning with
September, shows decided I'M
provement. His firms sales for
this period are well above the re-
cord of last year. This, he de-
clares. is confirmation of his con-
clusions.

Further. the presence OF the host
detracted from the events interest.
There was large outlay Of money
uselessly expended on railroad fares
and hotels. Worst OF all. The
chances OF outstanding players were
often injured by the size Of the
field.
In order TO eliminate these things
in future tournaments, tho Profes-
sional Golfers association decided
TO bring into being their plan OF
a year ago for section qualifying
rounds.
The country viii be divided into
two sections for 1924. and golfers
will qualify according TO the sec

limit in each section will be the
