BROTHER Of
ACCUSED IS
STILL HELD
Man Arrested by Mexicali
Police Is Declared to Be
Murderer of DiaZ.
TRIED TO SHOOT COP
Suspect Will Be Turned
Over TO Authorities on
This Side, Is Belief.

Following four days of investiga-
tion into the murder of Pedro Diaz
at Calipatria early in the :veek, the
trail has led TO Mcxicali where it
is believed the man responsible for
the crime is under arrest and I'm
perial county officials are hoping
that arrangements can be made
with the Mexican government so
that the man believed guilty of the
crime can be turned over to them
fer punishment.
Sheriff Gillett and members of his
staff are today comforting with po-
lice officials nj Mcxicali in the
hope Of having the latter turn
over TO them, Enrique Ramirez. who
is believed to have murdered Pedro
Diaz at Calipatria last Monday
night.
Jose Ramirez, brother of Enrique,
who was at first accused of the
murder. is still held at the coun
" iail as u material witness.
Brother Sees Accused
\ brother of the slain man went
10 Mexicai Thursday. and II is
stated he recognized Enrique Ram
ircz on the street and notified a
Mcxicali police officer. When the
policeman went TO arrest RAMIREZ,
the latter drew .3s calibre revol
yer and tried TO shoot the officer
but was ovcrpowered and captured.
Diaz was positive that Ramirez
is the man that killed his brother
and the fact that the latter was
shot with .3s calibre gun seems
TO add color to the belief that he
is the man wanted for the killing.
The Mcxicali police have Ram
ircz in custody, and have expressed
=. Willingness to turn him over to
the American officials if the latter
can produce proof that the accused
man actually committed the muir
der. The sheriff today was to OBJ
tain affidavits to this effect from
witnesses Of the shooting. and hon
ed upon presentation of these, TO
induce the Mexican ofticials TO sur-
render Ramirez to him. The fact
that Diaz was n Mexican citizen,
and that the crime was committed
in this country, will persuade the
Mcxicnp officials to turn Ramirez
over TO the sheriff, il is thought.
sheriff Gillctt stntcd that the
Mexican Officials have shown cvcrv
willingness to cooperate with his
office but they want to he certain
that there is good reason to believe
that Ramirez is guilty.. before de-
por;ing him from Mexico.

breakfast, il Mollie in the kitchen
is asked to manage one thing, and
the girls another, and myself a
third, WILL it work? And il not,
how about starting in half an hour
earlier?"
Martha writes out the menus for
the week every Sunday evening, the
children helping her with sugges-
TONS. Mollie in the kitchen has
this list every Monday morning.
The children get their hot vegeta-
bic and potato and sometimes meat,
eggs or fish, on the side porch at
half-past twelve. They have their
cookies and fruit in their hands.
Mollie knows that this is all that
will be expected Of her, she buffers
their bread beforehand, with melted
butter and brush, serves their
meals on the plates right from the
stove, there is no washing Of plat
tiers, and dessert and bread-and-but-
ter plates. These particular chill
dren are proud of the way their
house is managed, and enjoy regu-
lar hours and strict rules. 1t is my
opinion that all children do.
Supper is put all on the table
at once. Omelet, mullins. stewcd
fruit, crackers, peanut butter. some
times salad, sometimes corn on
the cob. only two or three things
every evening, and only one plate
apiece.
At first the man ~ the house
objected to this sort Of meal. But
Martha made short work of him.
She reminded him of what those
five precious lives had cost HER,
her youth, years Of health, hun
dreds of nights Of sleep, physical
ngonies, countless self-denials. She
said in effect: "The parents Of five
children no longer live for them
selves. They must LIVE FOR
THEIR CHILDREN. / can't lie
in bed reading books in the morn
ing. / can't dress as l did on my
own incomc-my life has gone into

milk-toast or corn-soup supper is
far better for tired man than the
usual grapefruit and sparc-ribs and
scalloped potatoes and fruit salad
and fig pudding. and you've GOT
to make yourself like IL! That is

lily, on $500 a month"

Many women despise anything like order in their

Certain other women treat physical health in the

Personally, if were cook, would rather cook

incompetent mistress coming out into the kitchen
every morning to muse and hesitate and change her
mind about salads and soups.
Just as no business be managed for five min
utes without SYSTEM, without a starting hour and
stopping hour without definite division of duties
and strict regard for time, no household can.
