stituted. This was satisfactory and
the amended bill was approved.
The first pension payment was in
1907 when nearly $4,000 was dis
tributed. In the four years following,
sums ranging from $4,000 to $685.
900 were disbursed, but with success
sive years the amount has steadily de-
creased until it is now within the
$4,000 figure. The law covers not
only those who participated but sur
viving widows. Death due to the
infirmities of old age has sadly de-
pleted the ranks of those entitled to
the pension. Another decade and the
list will have been wiped out.
The Sioux Indian uprising and its
is best told, in the men,
oirs of Gov. Ramsey and Col. H. H.
Sibley. While overlooked in the
great civil conflict of that day, it is
still an integral part of the states
history. All of the Indians partici
pating were not of the kind known
as bad Indians. The Chippewa tribe
generally were friendly and included
in those to>whom checks are now be-
ing sent by Mr.. Chase are several of
the Chippewa nation. A number of
half and quarter breed Indians are al
so listed.
Complete suppression of the Sioux
Indian uprising did not come until
1864, and in the meantime there was
frightful destruction of life and prop
erty. Some of the atrocities COM
nitted were beyond belief. Due to
Col. Sibley's activity, over 800 In
lians were condemned to death and
80 suffered the penalty.

SAVE THE TREES!

The Press commends the members of the Woman's

sion to retain the their property at Seventh

cent eucalyptus the parking to permit the bet
growth of nearby hedge defeated by the very
significant vote of 80 to H.

voice in protest the wanton destruction OF trees III
Imperia Valley and hope to live to see the day when
il will be mlsdemeanor, punishable by fine tor any
cut down full grown tree in this valley without
having secured permission from the proper officials.
There may be Instances when 1t becomes 1mpera-
tive to do but the wholesale sacrifice OF trees that
has been rampant throughout the valley the last few
years ought to be stopped by legal procedure II neces
sary. just recently, wonderful row OF 1ull grown
date palms lining the road near Brawley were ruth
essy cut down and all the county the slaughter
is being carried on to the shame of Imperial Valley
1t is gratifying to the local women living up
to the best traditions of cubdom by refusing to spon
sor such gross dissertation Of Ell Centros civic beauty
as the removal of the superb trees the east side OF
their club house Not only they picturesque and
beautiful but by their very age, they mpart air OF
dignity and distinction to the comparatively new cluo
grounds. They planted there in the early days
conformity with the plan of uniform tree planning
for local streets. The hardy pioneers of the valley
chose the eucalyptus perhaps because 1t, like they
imbued with such splendid vitality and resistant
powers that better able to withstand the fury of
west winds, the intense heat of the and other
Ncssitudes of the valley than any other variety Ger
tain it is that is the only hardwood tree far tested
that be propagated in the valley and that will grow
rapidly. Some there may be who frown upon the
hardy eucalyptus because by its very nature 1t saps
of Sixth and Olive and look at the splen
did clump of eucaypti trees there without thanking
God for such trees 1t is only in California that they
attain their fullest perfection and should be proud
indeed of ability grow such specimens in what

The local club women's action is right in line with
the program being carried out by the Federation Of
Women's Clubs encouraging tree conservation and
tree planting.
instead OF discussing any movement to remove
trees, should redouble efforts to increase the
planting of trees everywhere in the valley-n our
yards, the streets, the ranches Nowhere in all
the United States does tree become such priceless

SEVEN SOCIAL SINS

A great English divine recently preached a SER
mon 'seven social sins He named his seven points
and carefully expounded each in very fine series
of arguments. The New Orleans Tmes-Picayune finds
them sufficiently important and interesting to stand
alone and lists them without the preachers eXplana-
tions, as follows
Politics without principle.
Wealth without work
Pleasure without conscience
knowledge without character.
Industry without morality.
Science without humanity.
Worship without sacrifice.
They are recognizable evils. Expressed simply
they are easy for the thoughtful individual under

Through The Static

We did one thing last night, We tuned in lot of static, thus clearing the air for all other New Britain people. It seems to us that every time there is any static In the air 1t holds 8 convention right on our aerial, Funniest darned thing we ever heard of. Stations came In loud, however, and were heard over the interference. Western stations came in good and New York broad casters outdid themselves, nearly splitting the diaphragm of the speaker from 10 o'clock until after midnight.
 We heard "meen" band at WCAE, Pittsburgh. We missed the announcement as to what the name of the orchestra was, but It was playing at the Nixon restaurant, so draw your own conclusions. Well, that bunch turned out some of the hottest music we have heard in many day. The band didn't even go through the formula of playing the verse and the first chorus of each song straight, that Is, without any flourishes of any kind. The opening number was Blue Eyed Sally" and what they didn't do to that number wasn't in the book. The band wal headed by two daffy saxophones, one apparently soprano and the other a baritone. The two of them just tore around the place raising hob witt the music and improvising tunes o' their own where they didn't like the music. We listened to that orches' tra for about 20 minutes and no

The station was on the air from o'clock until about ! o'clock, broadcasting program by John Ox- ley's orchestra, which, the an-l nouncer said, was filling an engage ment in the Massachusetts town last night. The program was good and the station was loud. although trans mission was nothing to write home about,
 Mother McCrea," after an ab- sence of almost week, came through the air last night, the par ticular station from which the song was heard, being WSAI at Cincin- natl, A chap by the name of Rob- ert Fall. at least we understood the name to be such, rendered the song with all the pathos which shouldn't be put into 1t, He ended the song in a decidedly McCormickian manner, with & "Maw-ther Muc Cren- -Hee," the last note way up in the air.
 The Rhodes ballroom orchestra broadcast from MEAN, Providence, this being one Of their infrequent appearances" before the micro phone. The numbers were spicy and WEAN's volume was such that it shut out any stations which might have had an idea of interfering with the broadcast. "Oh, Katherine" was heard, vocal chorus by all mem bers of the orchestra, except the sax ophone players, being presented in a commendable manner.

 We have several numbers from unidentified stations. which any , broadcaster may have by applying to this newspaper One of them is q rather shop worn rendition of Jerusalem" on a cornet, with the final note badly damaged because of the fact that the operator of the in strument lost his breath and self control at the same time. We also have "All Alone" in a choice. rendi- ton by a soprano soloist, accom- panied by an orchestra. We'll sell that at half price. Also, we have sev- eral assorted, This is station" fol-
 lowed by a burst of static, and few renditions of "Copenhagen." One lone presentation of Follow The
