PIONEERS TO
DEBATE AGAIN
ON SNOWSTORNI

Imperial Valleys famous snow
storm of pioneer days, always a good
lively topic for argument, will be
hauled forth again Saturday for dis
cussion when the Imperial Valley
Pioneers hold their annual picnic at
Ira Aten s ranch, two miles north of
this city on Fourth street.
That snowstorm happened some
where between Fourth of July and
Christmas, in the year-well, one
year anyhow. We are well acquaint
ed with a newspaper man who
cracked a knowing grin when "Scot-
ty' Russell first told him about it..
The grin faded away when Scotty"
became emphatic.
There was a snowst rm - no
doubt of that, but the time is the
particular cause of argument. Ar
thur Edgar says one time, "Scotty"
Russell has another Il. ID. Mccall is
sure his particular date is right, and
as for the ladies - they have dates
all their own.
But the snowstorm is not the only
thing to come up for discussion.
These men and women who kicked
the sidewinders out of the way to
make room for Imperial, Brawlcy,
Calexico. FL Centre. Holtville, and
other valley towns, have host of
"reminiscences. The sandstorm, the
heat, the lack of all modern convcn-
fences, incidents that happened on
trips in and out of the desert - all
form foundations for interesting
yarns of real historic value to the
valley.
The cold timers' can also tell
how the folks used to leave their
homes unlocked and their property
lying around loose, with no fear of
thieves something one docsn T
dare do now. They remember the
way the settlers used to help each
other out in time of trouble, and
join in to have a good time every
now and then when tired men and
women needed relaxation
There will be little of the formal
about Saturdays picnic. There was
no fOrmality in the early days and
the Pioneers like to stick to the old
ways for one day in the year, though
otherwise they are just as modern
as any of us.
