NAME FOR THE DAM

We have always figured the honor
able William Hale Thompson, mayor of
Chicago, as dumb, if not worse, but just
how dumb never became a matter OF real
interest.
The mayors dumpness was RESPONSE
BILE for good joke last week, one that can
be fully enjoyed by residents of Imper-
ial Valley.
William Hale wrote to the governor of
Arizona, urging that delegation of 25
be sent from that state to Chicago to
attend a conference seeking a congress
sional appropriation for Mississippi riv-
er flood control. To this the Arizona
chief executive replied that it would be
impossible to accept the invitation, Ari-
zona having no funds to bear the cost of
such delegation.
Promptly William Hale wrote again,
pointing out that neither did Chicago
have any money for an appropriation to
aid the Boulder Canyon dam project,
nevertheless he and the other sturdy cit
liens of the Windy City did not hesitate
to charter special train at a personal
cost of $50, 900 and proceed to Washing
ton to put over Boulder dam.
There was more than an intimation
that having done good turn for Ari-
zona, the Chicago mayor expected it to
be returned, his honor apparently never
having heard of the S500,O00 which Ari-
zona has spent in it's efforts to defeat
the Boulder dam project.
He is fortunate that John c. Phillips
at present occupies the gubernatorial
chair in Phoenix instead of the Hon. G.
w. P. Hunt. Perhaps when the latter
does take his seat for the 4,517th time
next week, he will have something to say
to William Hale.
In addition to enjoying the joke, val
leyites can give thanks that the man re-
sponsible for Boulder dam has at last
been found. We have been 'all wet" on
Phil Swing, Hiram Johnson, Herbert
Hoover, DR.. Mead and countless others
Seems like the least we could do is call
the dam the William Hale Thompson
dam(n).

WALES is CHALLENGED

Keeping young upstarts in their prop
er places is a difficult job, as many a
veteran can attest No sooner has the
grizzled vet firmly established his repu-
tation than along comes some downy-
faced youngster and topples the vet in
to the dust-a broken and shattered idol.
No less parsonage than Edward AL
bert, Prince of Wales, is finding this true.
The prince had definitely established
himself as the champion royal faller off
of horses. Fora long period there was
something radically wrong with the week
that did not see him make the first page
because he had described parabola from
a horses back, over horses neck, to
the bosom of old Mother Earth.
Late editions have been held up in
order that the story might make the
place which was its due in the columns
of the public prints. Not only was the
prince regular front pager, he also was
the salvation of many Hollywood gag
man and ray of sunshine to countless
low comedians of the stage.
Now all his prestige is not only chal-
lenged but in grave danger of being ov-
ershadowed and forgotten. Edward AL
bert's youngest brother has thrown down
the gauntlet to his right as the royal
faller. Prince George, mere slip of %,
made the front page throughout the
country Saturday and Sunday when his

LOCAL SERVICE
STATION WORKER
HOLD-UP VICTIM

Two hold-ups, one Saturday night
in Calipatria and one last night in
El Centre. kept deputy sheriffs and
police busy over the weekend on
Investigations of the robbers activi-
ties,
Walter Wakefield at the Wakefield
Service station, Fifth and State
streets. was robbed of $65 here last
night without getting glimpse of
the robbers face. In Calipatria Ru-
dolph Borquez was robbed of his car
and some cash Saturday night by
two negroes. The car was later
found south OF Calipatria.
Walking into the service station
while WaKefields back was turned,
robber forced a hard object
against his back with the command
that he was not to look around. The
victim was ordered to open the cash
register, and the robber scooped UP
S65.
Leaving, the robber walked rapid
ly down the alley between the post
office and Steye's Cafe. Wakefield
caught a glimpse of his back. He
was white man, said the victim
and was wearing gray cap and
gray overcoat, with 4 dark suit.
AS soon as the robber had disap-
peared, Wakefield telephoned to the
police department and the sheriffs
office. Officers carried on an i'm
mediate investigation. It IS thought
that the robber may have had an
automobile parked in the alley, and
escaped in 1t.
Imperial Valley press., 1930-12-29
WHAT OTHERS THINK

Imperial Valley should by all means
continue its pageant, produced Tor the
first time this fall, in the opinion OF Paul
w. Moore. editor of Redlands Facts, who
recently expressed himself in his editor
ial column as follows:
Should Continue Imperial VALLEY Pageant
A news report from Imperial county,
reveals that the valleys pageant, The
Desert Calls" produced for the first
time last November, is faced with a de-
ficit of $4,000. The Associated Chambers
Of Commerce of the valley sponsored
the production and there is a problem to
handle in settling the bills, and to de-
eide whether the pageant will be at
tempted again next year.
If opinion of The Facts were asked the
reply would be that by all means the
pageant should be continued. Some ar
rangement should be made to carry the
deficit over another year. The pageant
is worthy, commendable, historical and
with the experience gained this year
should become classic of the valley, to
which thousands would journey each
year.
The editor of The Facts who witness
ed the production last month was
thrilled with the highly interesting his
torical, we'll staged pageant. The pub
licity we believe was not what it might
have been. There was no widespread
knowledge of the show, the news of it
hardly reaching beyond the confines of
Imperial Valley Methods of publicity
employed by the Ramona Pageant at
Hemet, the National Orange Show at
San Bernardino and similar successful
attractions would make of the valley ex-
position a real attraction. Again we say
don't be disheartened by the first years
results.

UNCLE WIGGILY'S SNOW HAT

When Uncle Butter, the jolly old
goat gentlemen. came to the hollow
stump bungalow house of Uncle
Wiggily one day after Christmas,
he carried on one horn a pail and
on the other a roll Of paper.
"Oh, what are you going to do i'll

the little orphan rabbit child.

paper on the wall in Nurse James

"Oh, how lovely!" said Baby
Bunty, and when Uncle Butter had
gone into the bungalow, carrying
pail on one horn and a roll OF pa
per on the other, Baby BuntY fol-
lowed him and asked:
What have you in the pail,
Uncle Butter?"
"I have white, sticky paste my
dear, to fasten the paper on the

mount dumped him while riding to
hounds at Melton Mowbray.
The royal nag dumped the royal per-
sonage in messy mess of mud and
water, twisting the royal shoulder out
of Joint, but undoubtedly making the
royal heart happy in the thought that
he had at last caught up with the fast
travelling "big brother.
And the irony of fate or the most
unkindest cut of all'' was dealt to 'big
brother. He too was riding to the hounds
and was right behind George, maintain
ing his saddle for a change. When the
baby got dumped it was ''big brother
who reached him first, ascertained that
he was only slightly hurt and giving him
cigarette, resumed his place in the
hunt. Dispatches do not state whether
the cigarette was given as consolation or
as a prize for having achieved eminence.

then sne sat down on little stool
at the door of Nurse James room

scratched the old paper off the

the goat gentleman cut some strips
of bright red, green, blue, pink pa

Bunty was up in the roorr where
the pail of paste and the rolls Of
paper were, getting lonesome wait
ing for Uncle Butter to come back.
After it was all over Uncle Wig
gily said he ought to be thankful
that Baby Bunty did no worse than
what she did
''She might" said Uncle Wiggily,
''have pasted paper on the floor
and it would have been hard to get
off,
Oh, but I haven't told you what
Bunty did: have I? Well, when
Uncle Butter was out of the room,
that little orphan rabbit looked at
the pot OF white paste and she said
IT'S just nice. clean. white paint
I wonder If there isn't something I
could paint before Uncle Butter gets
back But .nere is no use painting
anything here for the walls are
white and white PAINT would not

Speaking of black made Baby
Bunty thing of Uncle Wiggily's tall,
silk hat which looked like piece
OF black stove pipe.
"1ll paint Uncle Wiggilys tall
hat white and make a Snow hat OF
it instead of a black nat!" said tbs
little orphan rabbit.
No sooner said than done! Uncle
Wiggily was up in his room making
sure his pink nose was twinkling
right before he vent adventuring.
Baby Bunty took his tail, ElaCk hat
from the rack and. carrying it up
to the housekeepers room that lit
tie tyke began covering Uncle Wig
gily's hat with the sticky white
paste. All over the hat Bunty
spread the paste. and then she
laughed and said:
Now it's a lovely snow hat.

Well, suppose you. TOO, are won-
