new DIRECTORY
FOR COUNTY IS
BEING COMPILED

At the request Of the Ell Centre
Chamber of Commerce the Los An
geles Directory company has starteo
work on the new Imperial County a.
rectorv. the need Of which has for
several months been felt by the
chamber and by the general public
which consults the directory al
chamber headquarters. 1t was not
cxpec ted that work would be start
ed on the new directory before
March, but because Of requests from
the local chamber the directory
company sent representative to the
valley yesterday to start the pre-
liminary work in order that the new
publication may be compiled as soon
as possible. :,
Because Of the many new resi-
dents in the valley since the 1928
directory was published it is often
not possible to locate persons now
residents Of this community and ad.
dresses of others are incorrect at the
present time. This is an inconven'
ienee to the many business houses
who daily consult the Imperial Coun'
ty directory as well as to the out
of town business men and valley
visitors who wish to locate persons
residing here.
The new directory will show a
substantial increase in size, due ia
the increase in population and it is
expected that there will be a large
number of business addresses added
to the business directory as all the
valley towns have shown encourag
ing business growth in the past two
years. The survey will be started
Immediately on the new publication
and the Los Angeles Directory con
pany expects to have it ready fo,
publication just as soon as this
work can be completed.

halls "lively ball' which has pro-
duced nearly 10000 major league
home runs during the past 10 year1
will remain lively during the 1850
season and the home run promises
to continue a dominating influence.
The magnates' only move toward
curtailment of the home run produc.

Babe Ruth, Chuck Klein of the Phil.

little prospect that the salary dis

VISIT THE SCHOOLS

Another indication Of the growth of this city is
in the grammar school enrolment figures released by
Superintendent Gruwel showing that for the first time
in the citys history the enrolment has exceeded the
1900 figure.
Despite the increase there is ample in the
schools, and pupils not overcrowded though some
classes necessarily larger than teachers and super
visors believe desirable for efficient work.
Although the registration Of pupils IS large the rec
ord of parents visiting the schools very small School
authorities state that parents of many children never
visit the school and only during the week specially de-
dicated to school visiting, is there any considerable
number of visitors
This situation exists despite the desire of teachers
and the school superintendent for visitors. Par

Ell Centre schools maintain the high standard de-
manded by the California laws and sincere effort IS
made to give the pupil the best OF training not only IN
the studies assigned but in moulding his character and
