UNCLE WIGGILY'S PRESENT

"Well, now that 1 have picked
these bright, red rose beads said
Uncle Wiggily to himself on Candle
mas Day. u wonder what I had
better do with them?' The rabbit
gentleman, as I told you in the story
last night, had left his bungalow TO

friend, and on Mr. Chuck, the
groundhog daddy Of Woodie and
Waddie Chuck, those jolly little an

Mr.. Longears wanted to ask the
bear and the grounding not to
come out OF their dens, perhaps to
be frightened at their own shad-
ows if the sun shone. For there
is an old saying. or story, or belief
that if. on Candlemas Day, which
is the 2nd OF February. the hear o.

VOTING IMPORTANT
w. c. COSTELLO,
Manager

Tomorrow is election day in the I'M
perial Irrigation District. no less import
ant to Imperial Valley than the various
city, county or state elections
The district is the heart of the valley.
It's operations are not any too familiar
TO large number of citizens, which may
be their own fault, to a certain extent,
and at least part of the blame must be
lodged with the district itself, for the
difficulty often experienced IN obtaining
information about it.
Many citizens do not know that they
are entitled to vote at the district cleo
ton, providing they have qualified as re-
qlired by law for any election. One does
not necessarily have to be a taxpayer to
take part in the district election. The
merits of this condition are open to con-
siderable argument, but while it remains
thus, it is the duty of every citizen to
cast his ballot.
Voting should not be done carelessly,
nor without thought of what is being
voted. Within the next few years the
district is going to face a number OF
problems which will require the careful
thought of all connected with it. Di-
rectors of the district are the voice OF the
people in its affairs. If the district has
bad officials, Chad in the sense of inef-
1lclency) the people themselves are alone
TO blame. These official should be chos-
en- with the same consideration and
thought that we should give to any pub
lie official.
Despite the Importance of this cleo
ton, it is almost a certainty that a light
vote in comparison with the number of
citizens, will be cast tomorrow. This
can only be explained by the indifference
of the great mass of citizens. 1t is un-
fortunate that it is so. 1t is even more
unfortunate that those who neglect to
vote are always the loudest critics when
public administrations are unsatisfac-
tory.
Vote tomorrow, and vote intelligent

LESSON UNLEARNED

In some quarters the state athletic
commission, which controls boxing IN
California, has been criticized severely
for its action in barring one Max Baer
from boxing in this state.
The commissions action is based on
an unfortunate incident last fall, when
one Frank Campbell, oppsing Baer in a
boxing contest, died as a result of blows
inflicted by the latter. An investigation
cleared Baer of any criminal RESPONSE
bility, but the commission takes the stand
that boxing can get along without Baer.
Because the referee who supervised
the Baer-Campbell bout has been rein
stated, it is argued that Baer also is en-
titled to Reinstatement The latter Is re-
ported as planning a suit against the
commission, to force it to permit him to
box here.
There is no better argument for keep
ing Baer out OF California rings than
press dispatches from his eastern camp
where ne is training to meet another
boxer in New York Friday night.
The blows that Killed Frank Campbell
were hard, vicious drives to the temple,
which, the autopsy showed, detached his
brain from his skull. Yet Baer is plan
ming these same blows in his Friday
night fight and is reported as having
placed a cross on the helmets OF his
sparring partners so that ne may sharp
shoot" at this highly vulnerable spot.
He has not learned his lesson from the
Campbell tragedy and apparently does
not wish to do so. Boxing will always be
accompanied by certain amount of
brutality, but so are many other sports
in which men participate. 1t is the duty
of the commission to keep such brutali-
ty at a minimum, and to discourage It at
every opportunity. One of the best op
p0rtunities seems to be to keep Baer per-
manently out of California.

Pain in Your
Shoulder
It's Probably Neuritis;
Use Tysmoi for Relief

Knife-like jabs of pain in the vicinity
Of the shoulder blade are generally due
TO neuritis. brought on by exposure to

In Some cases there 10 stiffness or sore
