EARLY TIMES in
VALLEY RECALLED
BY LADY VISITOR

Memories of early days in Impe,
rial Valley at the time when FL Cen
tro twas not' were recalled yes
terday by DR.. Louise Harvey Clark
of Riverside, one of the prominent
club women who was in FL Centric to
attend the southern district
cnvention. California Federated
Women s clubs.
AS a member of the Southern Cal
ifornia Editorial Association s ex-
cursion which visited "the wilds -
of Imperial Valley more than 20
years ago, DR.. Clark had an oppor
tunitv to become acquainted with
this country when it was almost in
its original state.
1--WE used our cars as headquaH-
ters,' DR.. Clark explained. 1--WE
slept in the cars A visit to
Brawley and to Blue Lake, which
is now only q name, q tally-h ride
from Imperial to Calexico and the
sight of u number of mirages in
Guiding castles and battleship,
were among the interesting expe.
rienees recalled by DR.. Clark.
"I can remember Holtville, "
said DR.. Clark. "We were out
driving. and we saw sign ON which
the word Holtville, was printed.
That was all there was to the town.
Calexico, where the party spent
the night after their long tally-ho
trip from Imperial, proved quite
civilized. The water was filtered
and there was even ice. The WON,
en- of the party were comfortably
quartered. but there was not
enough room for all, so the men had
to sleep outdoors.
A visit to the old California De-
velopment company water system
in Mexico was included in the as
sociation's trip. 2
Then we drove back to lmpe-
rial, nearly smothered in eluods OF
dust. and held a banquet at the Ho-
tel Imperial,' DR.. Clark continued.
Some so or GO members OF the
editorial association were included
in the party.
