FORMER VALLEY
EDITOR WRITES
INTRIGUING BOOK

Valley history threaded through
with bright romance is embodied
in Otis b. Tout s novel, Silt - just
published by the Hillcrest Publish
ing Co., of San Diego and placed on
the market in the bookstores Of the
Imperial valley today.
The author was for Is years a
newspaper publisher in CaleXico and
FL Centre and the story of the fight
for the Boulder Dam as recorded in
the files of these papers has furnish
ed him with background for his
tale.
\ plot in which virtue triumphs
over Villainy and true love is re
warded in the romantic last chap
ter intrigues the reader.
With the exception of the chief
villains most of the characters are
but thinly veiled portraits of real
people who are still well known in
the valley. The book will be more
fun than cross word puzzle to the
old timers and the well-informed in
valley history to pick out the people
in the story.
Mr.. Tout is at his best when des-
Cribing incidents in local history,
such as the inundation Of the Colo
RADIO in 1906 and other events of
which he was an eye witness. His
roportorial gift stands him in good
stead here and these scenes have
verisimilitudc. He becomes some
what unreal. at times, in depicting
the arch-villain, Henry Austcr, who
stands for all the evil, personal and
public influences at work to thwart
the Boulder Dam. Perhaps Mr..
Tout does not want his villain to be
too much individualized.
The interesting publication is
available at local book stores and
the Valley School Supply Co. is
featuring ii in an attractive window
display.

And If Commander Byrd and his
party of explorers are not the last

iceberg zone, it is not because they
are not giving time and expense to
their raiment.
Anyone curious about polar STYLES
should drop in at the Byrd head

strewn with samples of fur coats.
helmets, socks. and balbriggan un-
derwear and hear the Weighty argu-
ments that 90 on as to what type
will be most nifty and dashing for
life on an ice barrier.
200 Pieces For Each Man
Commander Byrd estimates that
each of the 60 men on the trip will
have at least 200 pieces of wearing
apparel, neatly marked with his
own name and packed in sea bags
This does not include the COM
mon garden variety of apparel that
each will wear on the boat trip into
the antarctic-all this will be stored
at the last stop, Dunedin, and will
be parked there for more than a
year. until the party returns to
temperate zone.

and other types of other footgear.
Fur and OOl


Socks of wool are thick and
bungly, and there are fur ones to
be worn over these, made with the
fur on the inside SO that the
moisture Of the foot inside the
stockings may go through the fur
and onto the side. This minimizes
the dampness. and the damp foot Is
the one that is in danger of freezing.
Wool shirts and "heavies" appeal
to ones sense of the comfortable
rather than of the beautiful, though
they are not of the finest materials
available.
The really !clothes-conscious ex-
plorer covers every part of himself
but his eyes when he is finally
clothed for the days jaunt. As a
last touch. he covers that last en-
posed area with large goggles to
prevent blindness from the expanse
of dazzling snow.
Besides all the ''ready-mades"
that are being taken on this expe-
dition. many pelts are shipped in
tho piece. Once the voyage is under
way the sailmakers will be kept
busy making parkas and loose coats.
Since these are simple in cut and
nil as to fit, they can be fashioned
quite as adequately by he sailmaker
as they could by a Regent street
tailor.
