 This building is the only one to be visited today. It is planned later to spend one dc in each of the other schoolhouses. Data will be prepar- ed during these visits and at meet irgs to follow the field work a re- port will be prepared for presenta- ton to the mayor.

TO critics. partly due to the fact that
the audience liked their heroines In

The story OF Mrs. Siddons the great
tragedienne, who once played Viola In
Twelfth Night" and prudishly refused
To appear except In an unmasculine
dress OF flowing robes, illustrates by the
failure of the performance how much
"brceches parts" ticklcd the eighteenth
century audiences fancy and how the
more respectable feminine mind re-
garded them,
The prologue OF play was an Inn
portant part of the performance then.
1t was the authors way OF caioling the
audience into good humor beforehand
and OF apologizing modestly for his
shortcomings afterward.
Often enough a little known or, un-
popular author would get some famous
man to write his prologue to rouse
popular interest In his play. In the
case Of she Stoops To Conquer" David
Garrick, the most famous actor of the

WHERE'S OUR AIRPOPTo

BY voting a $4,000 bond issue for an airport,
CaeXco citizens have made known their determina-
ton to have their city keep apace with the trend of
times.
The day of the airplane as a common carrier has
been with US for long time, and the demand for this
sort of service is continually increasing. The
munt that does look far enough ahead to provide
itself with adequate landing field, is blind the
proverbal bat
Brawley also is making plans for an airport and
Imperial has one.
Ell Centro, with the largest population, the best
hotel accommodations and the best location of any
in the valley to say nothing of being the county seat
and on the direct line between Yuma and San Diego,
has nothing in the way of provision for airplanes.
Within the past two years, men known in the high
est circles of aviation, such Captain Lowell H.
Smith, of world flight fame and Eddie Stinson, who
recently broke the worlds endurance record have been
in Imperial Valley and expressed surprise that Ell
Centre is content to remain blind to the needs of avi
alton Had the great Lindbergh landed in the valley
last week would have been at Imperial and not El
Centre.
Rumors have been heard concerning El Centros
aviation plans The time for is past; what is
needed is action. The city council and the cham
her of have solved other problems for the
city. Here is another for them. An airport for
FL Centre will never be any cheaper than it is 1t
would have been cheaper three five years ago than
it will be now, but that is 'spil!ed milk" Every day
that action is delayed is more SPILLED milk" and
tSpilled milk is costly.
