Davies Overland
Company to Sell
Many Used Cars

Beginning Monday morning, April
", the Davies Overland company
will stage one of the biggest used
ear sales on record III the Imperial
Valley. The Davies Overland com
pany of FL Centre, Brawley, Calex-
leo and Holtville have double pur-
pose in holding this sale: first, in
providing means for one owning
a motor ear upon the most liberal
terms and, second, III clearing house
for other used ears to meet the un-
precedented demand for WHY'S
Knight and Overland motor ears.
With a choice of over so used
cars, ono will be able to find just
what they want. There are Fords,
Chevrolets, Overlands, Dodges,
Bucks, and on up to Cadillacs.
Many of these ears are thoroughly
rceonditioned-new tops, new rub
Der, refinished, etc. Other are in
very good running shape, but have
not been dolled up. Others are in
poor mechanical shape. They af-
ford the eat home mechnico the
opportunity to recondition the ear
in his spare time.
Lloyd a. Peck, well and favorably
known TO the valley residents who
was formerly associated with the
automobile industry here as sales
man, has assumed charge of the
Davies Overland company as dis
trict manager and it is under his
supervision that this sale is being
conducted.

INDIAN BLOOD

The Indian race is not dying out, many have
supposed.4wt is growing-on the color fFnges The
full-boods are just holding their own. The mixed
boods are increasing at the rate of about 1000 year
Here is another surprise. 1t used to be traditional
that an Indian half-breed mo good" Yet half
breeds turning into substantial citizens sue
cessful farmers and capitalists. There $4,000 In
dans settled on farms against 10000 ten years
and western banks have S35OOO,000 of Indian money.
The race will probably die out in time, just the
same not by extinction but by assimilation The half
breeds marry and more with the dominant whites,
thinning the red stain in their blood There bound
to be more and more mixed marriages of the full
boods Eventually the "redskn' will be gone, having
added little copper to the average American COM
pexion and little more calmness to the American
character.

the month of April. and many show
ers of water fell from the skies.
"But no matter! Rain or sun
shine, l am happy!" sang Uncle
| Wiggily as he thought of Mrs.
Jump and the little Dummies who
would come to live with him. Af-
fer many years as bachelor Mr..
Longears was going to be married.
Down poured the rain as the bun
lnv gentleman reached the Kat
house, and pressing their little
noses flat against the windows,
were Tonmie, Joie, kittie and Ba-
by Bunty.
"Oh no, Why so sad looking, my

as he hoped in.

, Raby Bunty. "Why didn't you
bring a little sunshine, Uncle Wig

Hum. I never thought of that!''
chuckled Mr.. Lougears. Bu. sec,
have brought you many toys! y
From his pockets he took the ball,
the marbles, the jumping jack and
other playthings.
New Mew!" cried Kittic Kat,
and her brothers said the same
thing while Baby Bunty clapped
her paws, for they were no longer
sad because it raincd. They play
ed with the toys.
But even toys will not keep ami
NAL children amused very long on
rainy day. Soon they pressed
their noses against the glass of the
windows, and sighed and cried to
go out and play. But the rain pclt-
cd down and they could not. Then
the animal children became cross
and were fretful and banged the
chairs around and looked unhappy.
'"Oh, dear, If the sun would
only shine!" mewed Mrs. Kat. Then
Uncle Wiggily looked from u win
dow and cried:
~ sec a little sunshine. -
Where." asked Baby Bunty.
"Out on the lawn" replied Mr..
Longears. "Wait, l IL bring it in. "
Quickly he hoped out into the
April shower, aud when he return
ed he had something cleaning
yellow in his paw. Here is my
little sunshine he said.
"That. Why, that is only a dan
dclion flowcr!" cried Baby Bunty.
Eyes, but it is golden yellow,
and looks like sunshine" said the
rabbit gentleman. Lat 5 pretend
that il is sunshine!' So he tiekled
Baby Bunty under the chin with
the dandclion, and made her laugh,
and when she laughed Tommic
laughed and when Tommie laughed
Joie laughed and when Joie laugh
ed Kittie laughed. So they were
sad no longer because of Uncle
Wiggily's little sunshine. And
then, in a short while, the real sun
dried up the rain and the animal
children went out to play.

COOLIDGE DEFENDS ECONOMY
 PROGRAM

President Coolidge takes the posi- gram is concerned, by it's fruits we should know it. "If," he said this week in an address, "the practice of economy is not apparent, the results of it are viewed with tremendous sat- isfaction. Let those who are inclined to scoff at it, those who are inclined to refer to it as cheeseparing, look at the result it has accomplished" The answer, he asserted, is complete and overwhelming"
 The president pointed out that the governments expenditures of the fis- cal year 1921 were $5,538, 100000, while those of the present fiscal year proba- bly, will be kept within $3,534, ,O00,OOO, reduction of 2,OO4,OOO,OOO in four years. In the same four years the public debt has been cut $3,19S,000,- 900, thus eliminating $134,OO0,O00 year in interest on the debt.
 The results" in figures are that the people have gained tax reductions of S2,O00, 0,0OO,0O0 a year. Moreover:
 Our nation is prosperous. It's pros perity is due largely to the economy which has been effected in the cost of government. It is this economy that has encouraged business, abolished unemployment, made wages high and work plentiful. We are evidently en- tering upon an era of increasing busi- ness activity and material prosperity With increasing business we can sure ly depend upon increasing revenues have heretofore indicated my pur- pose that growing revenues shall not be absorbed in unwarranted increases in federal expenditures"
 The president prophesied a surplus of more than S373,0OO,OOO for 1926, adding that any increase in receipts or decrease in expenditures would increase this surplus for the benefit of the taxpayer.
 The kind of continuing policy" to which the president has committed himself may be "cheeseparing' but it makes hit with the average citizen
