DIR. MEAD FRIEND OF THE VALLEY

If there is one friend whom Imperial Valley is
particularly pleased to welcome visitor it is the
distinguished gentleman in midst, DR.. Elwood
Mead, United States commissioner of reclamation
j Dr. Mead comes here in the course of trip which
is survey to get everything ready to proceed with the
actual construction of Boulder canyon dam and to
study conditions connected with the building of the
~all-American canal
Imperial Valley needs introduction to DR.. Mead,
nor does he need any to Imperial Valley He has long
been friend and good friend of this community.
During the long years of the congressional battle for
the Swing-Johnson BILL friends of that always
knew where to go when things looked backest
technical point raised by those opposing the egs
lation, which threatened it with disaster.
Familiar with every phase of the Boulder dam
plan and also thoroughly acquainted with the tricks
and schemes of politicians who nfest the national cap
tal;~Dr. Mead was tower of strength at all times.
Never did friends of the bill go to him for advice
without receiving it.
His faith in the ultimate success of the legislation
never wavered. To him it would be the crowning
work of the reclamation service but above that
he visualzed the benefits to mankind of turbulent
river harnessed and put to work and of desert wastes
reclaimed as Imperial Valley has been reclaimed
The legislative part of the work has been accom-
plished. Dr. Mead's work is just beginning Under
his guidance will be undertaken the greatest piece of
construction work since the government built the
Panama Canal That it could have better direct
ing spirit, Imperial Valley is we'll aware.
DR.. Mead can bank upon the support and coopera-
ton of Imperial Valley to the fullest degree during the
active years that to before the great work is
done The valley will stand by him staunchly
he stood by US We rest secure in the knowledge
that our greatest problem is in his hands
We hope that DR.. Mead will enjoy his present stay
to the fullest degree We know that he is busy
and that the demands his energy and time are
haustive particularly at this time. One thing
certain he will appreciate, is much time for quiet
relaxation as he can find. No unnecessary demands
should be made upon him while he is here. He has
plenty of work to do, and that being accomplished he
is entitled to much privacy as he may desire.
He should be made to feel that he is among friends
glad to have him in their midst ready to do anything
at inn enter tO give
him that which busy always needs and ap-
preciates relief from needless calls upon his time

UNCLE wIGGILY'S SUGAR

Once upon time, as Uncle Wiz
gily was hopping through tue
woods, he saw some Boy ScoJi:
marching along They were fine lit
tie chaps, with red and yellow
handkcrchiefs around their neeks.
Uncle Wiggily hid behind sassa-
fras bush and watched.
The rabbit gentleman wash I
afraid the Boy Scouts would chase
| him, for he knew they didn't do
| things like that. But Mr.. Longears
liked to watch the marching lads.
AS two of the Boy Scoats passed
him, not knowing the rabbit was
hiding behind the bush and watch
ing them, one boy, who had re::
hair. asked another boy, who ial

"Oh, yes,' was the answer. /

"And / gave glass of water 10

"WeIl, that S nice" though.
Uncle Wiggily. ''I had heard thu:

THE LOST FLYERS

Disappearance of the Spanish flyers attempting
flight the United States, has revived in several in
stances the statement often made after the many dis
astrous flights two years ago, that such trips
should not be made except after every precauton had
been taken to avoid accident
To US such an attitude seems unfair to the missing
men. They under the command of Commander
Ramon Franco, experienced and competent airman,
who gained worldwide recognition by his flight
the south Atlantic three years ago. Their plane
mechanically perfect and the distance they to
travel from Cartegena to the Azores short
pared to the length of other flights and not to
be considered particularly dangerous.
1t is quite likely that the missing airmen
come by the flyers greatest enemy - fog If this
happened it is not likely that the armen will be found
alive. Indeed the chances that they will be rescued
are extremely slim, almost full week having elapsed
since they disappeared.
Spain has the sympathy of the world in her search
for her missing eagles Better than sympathy, she
has the active cooperation of several nations to aid her
in the search for the flyers.
The loss of the big Dornier plane and its crew can
not be charged to incompetence ndiscretion 1t is
Just another proof that while has made remark
able strides in the conquest of the air. the conquest is
not complete yet

Uncle Wiggily politely. cit Is Just
a small kindness.
Then the rabbit gentleman looi>
er around for some other kind deed
to do and he saw a little Ant lady
trying to drag Il grain of sugar,
which she had found, home to her
nest beneath an old stump. The Ant
lady was very small, and while to
you grain of sugar may seem very
tiny, it was as big to the Ant lad,
as the gas stove would be to you
if you had to drag it along.
ooh, please let me help you.'
cried Uncle Wiggily. ~ can easily
lift that grain of sugar for you.
cit would be great kindness if
you would" whispered the An.
lady, for, being so small, her voice
was like a faint breath.
Uncle Wiggily iiggled the grain
of sugar on leaf so he might more
easily carry it and, taking one hop
he was at the Ant lady s stump
hole house in a second and there
he left the grain of sweetness.
"Oh, thank you, SO much"
murmured the Ant lady, ami Uncle
Wiggily said please not to mention
it. Then he had Il new idea and
away he hoped, as fast as he could,
to the grocery.
''Please give me pound of
sugar.' cried Mr.. Longears to Tie

Sugas Kindness to an Ant lady
"That's the first time ever
heard of IA Sugar Kindness, but here
you are" barked Mr.. Dog. With
the bag of sugar under bis paw,
Uncle Wiggily hoped back to the
woods and in moment he had
dumped all the white grains of
sweetness on the ground at the
Ant S home.
"There's enough to last you all
summer!' said Mr.. Longears. Bu:
Il moment later came a sorrowful
cry from beneath the stump. \ cry
of:
"Help, Help! Oh, you haze
dumped all that sugar in fropt of

was true enough. Uncle Wiggily
had been too kind and he had COW

rabbit. 81 guess there's little too
much Sugar Kindness. Wait min
