DAME RTEOR

1t is human nature to listen rumOrs and in nine
out of 10 TO take them seriously without invest
eating them The wildest yarns are often given
credence by those considered to be "hard-headed
businessmen" whatever they are.
A In point is a two million dollar run on New
York bank, caused entirely by rumors based on the
fact that the president of the bank had carDunce on
his neck.
1t happens the president is also physician and
went to a sanltarlum up in COnneC icut have his
carbuncle removed. His absence from the bank was
noted, and somebody started the rumor that he was
dead Like all rumors it spread like wildfire resulting
in thousands of depostors making rush to the bank
to withdraw their deposits
The bank found necessary hire extra tellers and
II required to take care of the frenzed de-
positors. Efforts to tell them that the bank was
thoroughly solvent frujtles. Not the state
of state bank examiner that the banks accounts
in good condition could them against the
fears founded entirely rumOr.
In time the tide turned, and one Of the II men be-
receiving instead of paying teller Depositors
sheepishly back and returned their money to the
bank
Another example of the strength of rumor is the
so-called Hollywood diet" The mysterious some
body" started the fad with yarn about the famous
Mayo Clinic having prescribed the diet for equally
famous actress who wished to her surplus
poundage Hundreds Of persons who considered them
selves weghty went the diet They did not stop
to consult their physician to whether or not
the food prescribed in the diet proper for their
particular conditions.
Most Of the dieters lost weight In some cases the
diet caused serious illness. Denias by the Mayos that
they had anything to do with the diet doubted at
first but ii is quite generally understood that their
denial is true
Human nature is prone to be gullibe and something
new always has its attractions Experience shows that
il is always better to do little investigating first when

DOWN WITH SLAVERY!

Perhaps the salvation of man from the tortures of
summer discomfort depends upon US right here in I'M
peral Valley
AS all Know with the first approach of warm wealth
er collars es coats and vests go into the discard The
man with his shirt open the throat not an oddy
out the man with necktie is The comfortable dress
is accepted in all circles
An invitation to dinner in the most proper valley
circles during the summer time that the guest
Will not be snubbed considered mannered if his
coat collar, vest and tie home in the closet instead
OF oemg upon his carcass, and his sleeves rolled to
the elbow.
1t not in other sections of the country Not even
IN California has the coatess idea been accepted in
polite but darn fool circles
Yesterday group of valley Rotarans attended the
Rotary meeting in San Diego. They appeared in their
valley summer costume, declaring that they found San
Degos climate every bit uncomfortable as the sum-
mer climate anywhere else and that they believed in
being as comfortable when abroad as tbev were at
home
Instead of being thrown their collective ears
the San Diego Rotarans not only accepted their valley
bretheren but followed their example. Unnecessary ap-
pare was discarded the San Diegans rolled up their
sleeves stuck their neckes in their pockets, and for
the time being became sensible folks.
Afterward many of them declared that it was the
most enjoyable and comfortable meeting they have
had this summer. few of the bolder spirits were in
favor of following the valley example for the remain
der OF the summer, but this will have be fought out
with the diehards.
1t is asking too much of the individual vaIleyte to
say that when he is the coast in the he should
stick to valley attire But how about having
delegations from here visit these other benghted CEN
ters missionaries to free downtrodden from the
fetters which the dictates of society and his own lack
of intestinal fortitude have shackled upon him?
By making such visits, fortified by strength of num-
bers much could be achieved and would in the end
win the everlasting regard of the poor slaves who suf
fer each year from June to October because of the
proprietes of the mid-Vctorian era.
1t sounds like call TO duty, men. Shall it be said
that Imperial Valley have regard for the suf-
ferings of thousands Of their brothers? We need
Crusaders, and hereby nominate yesterdays deega-
tion as leaders of Crusade 10 free the slaves.
