About Torrid Love Notes

LOS ANGELES, April 8 G.NS0
Chatty letters, filled with express
sions Of love from a feminine ad.

tion from Jacob Benson Luder,
actor, who has entered a counter
suit against his wife's divorce
action here.
That question is What could
! do?"
Absolutely Helpless
N court yesterday, he put the
question to cross-examining law
yer, then answered it himself
saying:
could do nothing. She
was a very high class aristO-
cratic girl from New York. We
had been friends a long time.
l hear she is married now and
travelling in Europe"
The letters, read into the rec
ord, were from Mary Poneco, of
New York, according to Luden,
and were taken from his bureau
drawer by his wife. Each began
Jack Dear" and from one, this
was selected:
81 saw the Broadway Limited
pull out. / wish I could have
got aboard and have come to
yOu. If I could have had you
al my very Own!"
Sought His Freedom
From another, the lawyer Sc
1ected this line:
LET me know when you are
free. Mother is resigned to
my getting married"
Luden denied he had told his
wife that he wanted divorce
so he could marry the girl.
During the testimony, Mrs.
Luden sat in a corner of the
court room and Sobbed as the
actor said:
81 never told the girl would
marry her. 1 met her in New
York and had telephoned her.
She asked me to come and see
her. If she fell in love with
me, that is not my fault. What
could I do?"

No Depression In
Matrimonial Line

Blame IT on the weather or ira
dition, June in Imperial Valley Is
proving a month Of marriages, as a
casual survey Of record books in the
county clerks marriage bureau will
show
And these record books show only
those patient souls who are willing
to wait the prescribed three days
between declaration of intention
and actual marriage. Others. less
patient, have found quicker way
by motoring go miles to Yuma.
At any rate, the books show that
10 marriage licenses have been is
sued in this county since the first
of the month. This is an average
of one each day during the month.
One noticeable thing about the Ii
censes issued is that most of them
were to Americans, with Mexicans
taking out permits to marry in only
a few instances.
OF the number who have declared
their intention to marry, but have
not yet worked up sufficient courage
to call for their license. most are
OF the white race. There are five
notices Of intention on file for Cnis
month.

CLUBWOMEN OF
VALLEY RETURN
FROM MEETING

Imperial Valley was we'll repre-
sented at the southern conference
of the Southern District of the Fed
Grafton of Woman's clubs which
took place at Del Mar on June 16
and II.
Interesting and instructive ses-
sions were combined with social
events planned for the entertain
ment of delegates and guests.
Mrs. Marcus Robins, outgoing
president, presided and new Officers
were installed by Mrs. Agnes Nc
Euen, president.
The new president is Mrs. Albert
.Launer of Fullerton, who was well
coined by the hundreds of women in
attendance. at the conference.
At the first session an outline of
the work covered during the year
was given by the five county presi-
dents. This proved to be one of the
most helpful and instructive pro-
grams of the entire meeting. The
program forum led by Mrs. McEuen
was an inspiration as many sugges-
tions and ideas for next years
work we're discussed.
One of the outstanding addresses
of the event was that of Mrs. A.
Buwalda, who discussed the subject,
Crime Prevention and Industriali-
zation." The keynote of her re-
marks was that the inmates of the
prisons of tomorrow are in the kin
dergartens of today. She urged that
the children be trained and taught
the evils and results of crime.
Mrs. Mark Jones of Glendale,
chairman of motion pictures in the
state federation, told of new devel-
opments in motion pictures.
In outlining the theme for the
coming year. Mrs. Launer explained
that the idea was that of the deep
ening stream" which would do away
with "too much of too little" in ac-
complishments. She deplored the
tendency to cover too wide an area
in a shallow manner. She said the
plan is to cover a small territory
thoroughly.
Mrs. Frank D. Jacobs Of Ell Gen.
tro was again recognized as an out
standing member and was appoint
ed state chairman of highways and
waterways.
Mrs. F. d. Jacobs ana Mrs. A. B.
Hanson attended from El Oentro;

RARE COFFEE Wins

USERS BY FLAVOR
Amazing Popularity of Hills
Bros. Coffee Tribute to
Roasting Process

Years Of experiment by Hills
Bros. have resulted in the origina-
tion and perfection of the only
Controlled Roasting process in use
today.
By Hills Bros patented process,
the degree Of roast is positively
controlled. The quantity of coffee
passing into the roaster = about
three pounds at a time-does not
vary. The speed of the flow and
the temperature remain the same,
with the result that Hills Bros.
Coffee is absolutely uniform. This
roasting method is to a large de-
gree responsible for the frequent
question, "Why is Hills Bros.
Coffee always the same?"
Comparisons show that Hills
Bros. Coffee has a flavor no other
coffee has. The ordinary method
of roasting in bulk cannot insure
a uniform roast because there is
a lack Of control.
The vacuum can, in which Hills
Bros. Coffee is packed, keeps the
coffee fresh. Air, which destroys
the flavor of coffee, is completely
removed from the can and kept out.
Coffee does not stay fresh in ordi-
nary cans, even if air-tight. Ask
for Hills Bros. Coffee by name and
look for the Arab--the trade mark
ON the can. Sold by grocers
everywhere.
