they contained a gift or a promise of a

reason why Joan looked forward so
eagerly to their arrival.

Oily Skin.

YEAR Miss Leeds: G) If one has an
oily skin, should powder base be
used? (2) When I apply powder base,
one hour afterward my face becomes
very oily just the same. 90 What is a
good powder base to use? "a MAY one

condition of the skin mars an otherwise
healthy complexion. 1t is in these cases,
Wnere the oil glands (pores) of the skin
eXuce more than the usual amount of
Gil, that the overuse of face powders
has such harmful effect. (2) Besides
washing the face two or three times a
day with warm water and a mild SOAP,
the face should be splashed over with
cold water several times a day. then
dried carefully by dabbing, not by rub

Piled when the skin is covered with oil
After washing your face or using cleans
ing cream use mild astringent or skin
freShener. 80 This following lotion is
excellent for your type of skin: One
teaspoonful of boric acid, two ounces
distilled witch-hazel, three ounces
orange mower water, three ounces rose
water. Shake well. There are various
creams and lotions available that are
ready prepared. You are safe in using
all well known brands which are OBJ
tainable from any large drug store or
cosmetic counter or beauty salon. I
cannot give trade names through nv
column. "a You should not use a
cleansing cream as a powder base, be-
cause your skin is oily enough. Those
who have a dry, scaly skin NAV use a
thin film of pure cold cream, oily lotion
or other oil cream or finishing cream
as power base, but not a cleansing

have great possibilities if di-
rected in the right direction.
The well spaced words of letters
suggest inherent artistic talent. She
probably likes to draw and, If we'll di-
rected, may in time become a talented
artist. If her ability is not outstand-
ing. however, she should cultivate 1t
only as an engaging pastime.
Undoubtedly she should fit herself
for some sort Of profession. BY doing
this she would have assurance of inde-
pendence in later life. There are many
interesting and unusual careers open
to young women. AS she seems the
type who loves children and has great
patience with them, teaching might
prove a good choice. 1t holds particu-
larly good opportunities If she will spe-
ctalize in some special field, perhaps
drawing.
It may be that she has been much
in the company of older people Though
this has undoubtedly aided her mental
development, it has perhaps made her
more than ordinarily serious. She
should try to develop a more light
hearted viewpoint. BY having many
young friends and entering into their
pleasures this should be easy.
She probably does not like ''fussy'
things. Simply tailored clothes would
possibly look well on her and at the
same time satisfy her sense of fitness
We should expect her to enjoy the
theater. Musical and dancing shows
might particularly please her. The
action and wealth of color would ap-
peal to her esthetic side, while the
music would tingle her toes with its
rhythm. AS she grows older, however,
she will perhaps enjoy the more serious
plays more than now.

government, they questioned wheth-

Revenues from water sales to
Mexican users have Appropriated
half million dollars annually in
past years. recently, however,
there has been a decrease in the
demand due largely TO curtailment
CT cotton production.
Another factor in the reduced
income from Mexican water sales
involves the exchange values OF
Mexican silver as compared to
American currency. Mexican sill
YER, by which many users pay
their water charges, suffers ap-
proximately 20 per cent discount

The loss to the district from that

FRUIT JOBBERS WELCOME

Tomorrow several hundred members
of the Western Fruit Jobbers Associa-
ton. the men who each year handle I'M
perial Valleys enormous lettuce and
cantaloupe crops, will arrive in this city,
to spend the day making an inspection of
the community which plays such an i'm
portant part in their business affairs.
The importance of their visit cannot
be too strongly stressed. Their confer
ence in Phoenix was considered suffici-
emily important to cause the attendance
of Il railroad presidents, including such
men as General W. w. Atterbury of the
Pennsylvania system and Paul Shoup Of
the Southern Pacific system. Executives
of their high calibre are not available Tor
every meeting that calls to them.
Imperial Valleys success is due IN
great measure to the success of its can't
aloupe and lettuce crops. The success
of these crops is due no less to the men
who ship and sell them than to the ranch
er who grows the produce.
For some of these men their present
visit to the valley is their first one.
Others have been here on previous occas-
ions. To all of them Imperial Valley ex-
tends welcome and hopes they will
thoroughly enjoy their stay here and that
on returning to their homes they will tell
their friends about US.

AUTO TOLL HEAVY

Wednesdays papers carried small and
rather insignificant dispatch, but one
offering considerable food for reflection,
listing the automobile death toll during
1880.
Figures published by the National
Safety Council show 32 800 persons were
killed during the past year, by automo-
bies
Unfortunately, this is not the correct
total, as it represents only 32 states and
only Is per cent of the countrys popu-
lation. The final report will show a
much heavier total
Even taking this figure of 32,500, shows
an increase of 4 per cent over the 1929
total.
The council points out that this heavy
toll is equal to the population of good
sized city.
The report shows that we are not i'm
proving the safety of our highways to
any appreciable extent, Notwithstanding
the united effort of the press, automobile

it little, it might help to cut down the

And so l am going to fix up a plan

How. Daddicums?" asked all the
little rabbit boys and girls. That
is all except Baby Bunty, and she
asked:
How. Unkle Wig?" That was all
the baby talk" she had coming to
her.
We'll, I'll fix up a telephone be-

Hollow Stump School, said Mr..
Longears. when the weather Is
bad the children can be good and
stay home here, study their lessons
by telephone"
"Oh. goodie!" cried all the bunny
boys and girls, and Baby Bunty said
"Hurray for Unkie Wigs telephone!"

can flag in the American home. This is
to be regretted, but we believe neverthe-
less, that it is true There is no good
reason why every home should not have
a flag placed where parents and children
may see it frequently and accord it the
honor which is its due.
The American flag stands for all that
our nation has been, is, or will be- In
these days when there is altogether too
much reference to the red flag of Com
munism, it is fitting that we should pay
little more attention to our own flag. 1t
is not something to be taken out and dis
played on holidays and forgotten dur
ing the remainder of the year.
Parents should encourage their child
rem to enter this essay contest, not mere
ly in the hope that they may win one of
the prizes offered but to strengthen their
love for the flag and improve their knowl-
edge of it.
Mawkish sentimentality with reference
to the flag is to be deplored. None can
find fault with dignified love for it-a
feeling that should be strong in the heart
of every American.

THE FLAG

Attention of parents is called to the
patriotic contest being conducted by the
American Legion and Auxiliary, among
the school children of Ell Centro and ad-
jacent territory.
This contest is open to all pupils from
the fifth grade and up. The topic chosen
is The Flag. We wish the committee
had made the title Our Flag.
THE winners of the contest will be an
nounced and awarded prizes at an open
meeting to be held next Wednesday in
Wilson school, when high officials of the
Legion will be here TO encourage the
Legions Americanism program.
Thanks to our public schools, Ameri-
can children are taught in their earliest
years, to revere and respect the flag of
their country. They are taught its his
tory and follow its course down through
the years to the present day.
Only on infrequent occasions is there
likely to be any reference to the Ameri-

There was so much snow and ice
in Woodland, where Uncle Wiggily
lived in his hollow stump bungalow
that, even after the sun had melted
some of the big, white drifts, and
the rabbit gentleman had dug paths
here and there, it was hard for his
little bunny boys and girls to hop
to school
Something will have to be done
about this said Mrs. Longears
when Jingle, Jangle, Baby Bpnty
and many of her other children
came home from school one day with
the sad news that they had been
late.
The Lady Mouse Teacher said
she knew it wasn't our fault" Jingle
explained to her mother, "but we
were late all the same"
only she didn't keep us in" said
Baby Bunty. And I thought that
was sweet of her. Wasn't it, Unkie
Wig?" .Ht -
Very sweet. my Baby Bunty,
answered the old rabbit gentleman.
"Oh, dear!' sighed Mrs. Longears
as she looked at the wet paws and
