Nation Prepares Tun1ultuous Welcome for Ne1v Yea
STEADY PROGRESS
NOTED IN REVIEW
OF CLOSING YEAR
Solid and Substantial
Growth Manifest Here;
Business is Expanding.

Ell Centre has much to be thank
full for in the year whfcr dies at
midnight tonight, for 1925 has in
deed treated this city kindly.
While there has been no wide
spread boom that has stimulated
conditions here, there has been a
sound, substantial business growth
founded on merit, and therefore
likely to be more lasting than an
enforced or simulated prosperity.
This city. in common with other
valley cities, has been free from
any serious tragedies. disasters, la
hor troubles, sickness and The MANY
other ills which have been expert
cuccd in other sections Of thc com-
try. FL Centre has gone on its
placid war, sober, sane and certain,
striving TO better conditions here,
and NJ the same time lending 4 hand
when called mp TO assist other com.
munitcS not so fortunate.
Business Extensions
From commercial standpoint,
possibly the most noteworthy de-
vclopments here during the wear
have been The extension of business
into the coo block on Main street i
due in great measure TO the remodel
ing of the old court house ~ the
Elks lodge, and the growth of the
industrial section east of tie rail
road tracks. The west end Of Main
street beyond the court house, has
also been developed and the general
trend Of business appears 90 he east
and west, with the residential soc
lions reaching ont north aud south.
Thr'e has been considerable ac-
tivity in commercial aud residential
building, many new bones being
erected throughout the city. While
the total huilding permits Tor the
wear here might not be worth pass
ing notice ON the coast. it is an in
di'aticn 20 local people tlat this
community is growing.
Water System Is Milestone
The completion of the citv's cx-
c"lIcnt wator system marks another
milestone in the progress of FL Com
tro. and the equipment which has
been installed under the careful

Cancelled by Weather.
MANY PLANS HALTED
Several Dances Scheduled
for Tonight, Many So
cial Meetings Arranged

Not since Christmas week four
years ago has Imperial Valley expe-
rienced such a prolonged wet spell
such as the one that started last
Sunday and as this is written, gives
no sign of letup before tomorrow.
Plans for the observation of New
Years have been knocked galley
west by the rain and mud.
The big fiesta at IIoltvillc. under
the auspices of the American lie
gion has been called off, the legion
boys accepting the financial loss in
yolvFd with smile and rcHliZation
that they are e'out of luck. = The
condition of the roads made IT prac-
.tically impossible to conduct the
fiesta with any hope Of getting a
sufficiently large crowd TO drfray
expenses and the fiesta was dcfin-
itclv abandoned.
The big fight card has been post
poned until next Friday night. The
directors Of the Imperial Valley
Athletic club paid 4 visit to the
arena this morning and decided that
even though tho weather cleared
the arena would not be in condition
card will be presented next Friday
night.
Students Get Out Early .
Students at Central high school
living in the rural sections, wcr"
unable to get to school this morn
ing so Principal House decided 20
abandon the attempt to organize
classes with city students only and
dismissed school.

Young People : club of st. Mary :
church will entertain tonight with
dance and card party at st.
Marv's hall. to which the public is
invited and the Young men at the
plant of the Pacific Portland Go
mcnt company in Plaster City will
Il SO be hosts at a dance.
While thc weather and the re
strictionS on the international line
will have - tendency to cut down
the number of E.l Ccntrans going
to McXicali to celebrate New
Years, undoubtedly there will b.
plenty of local folks across the line.
There has been no change in the

Forestry Work Lectures

The farm forestry meetings held
throughout the country the past week
were very successful in interesting
the agriculturalists in reforestation
and other vital forestry matters.
The meetings were all planned by
County Agent Jester and Mr.. F. B.
Trenk, Forestry Specialist.
Mr.. Trenk, who illustrated his lee
lures and talks with lantern slides
and moving pictures, brought out the
point that the farmers of the country
are mining the forests the same as
the miner digs coal-everything is
taken out and nothing is left. He
also stated that the forests, which
should be considered a farm crop, re-
spends to the same general treatment
as other crops and that by proper
management the timber will mature
Is to 20 years earlier than if no care
is taken of it.
The meetings were held in practi-
cally every community in the county
with a total attendance of 1885 peo-
pie. Mr.. A. L. Sines, district fire
warden, was present at most Of the
meetings to explain the system of fire
protection employed in the county.

ROBBERS CAPTURE
 LOADED TRUCK
Leap From Touring Car to Ma
 chine--Kidnap Driver

New York, Sept. 10.-Five armed robbers leaped from a touring car to a truck loaded with $3O,OO0 worth of clothing early yesterday at De- lancey and Mangin streets, kid mapped the driver Morris Goldstein. and his helper, Ruben Adelstein, locked them in a lavatory in 419 Cherry street, and escaped with the truck.
 Several hours later police arrested Salvatore Farrara, 19, of All 77th street, Brooklyn, and Louis Ercole, S4, of 30 Carmine stret, as they were loading three trunks with part of the loot from the truck Farrara was identified by Goldstein and Adelstein as being a member of the hold-up gang.
 As Goldstein was driving along Delancey street an automobile drew up and five men forced him to pull over to the curb. With drawn re- volvers they ordered Goldstein and his helper into the touring car. They were taken to the Cherry street tenement, where they were bound and locked up. Their cries for help were heard by Louis Sherman, who called Patrolman Poller of the Clin- ton street station. who released them.
 Detective Bowling of the truck squad discovered that truck which resembled the stolen machine had been driven into a garage at West Third and Macdougal streets. De- tectives Mcfarland, Kleber and Hammel were sent there. The ar- rest of Ercole and Farrara followed.
 The prisoners were also charged with Kidnapping.
