volver
Knapp was on his way to his
home at Britton, Oklahoma, tray
cling through Imperial Valley. The
robbers maneuvered their large Sc
dan in such a manner as to .orce
him from the highway, knapp said
then forced him to get out with his
hands in ths air.
The victim said both men talked
in broken English. He did not be-
lieve they were Americans.

HETzEL PICTURES
RANK AMONG BEST

For 10 years Hetzel the Photo
grapher has been making portraits
of Imperial Valley people. His
reputation as a photographer, how
ever. is not limited to the Valley
alone. His agricultural pictures,
desert scenes, and pictures Of the
Boulder Dam site are known all
over the United States. In fact
Hetzel's Boulder Dam site pictures
were very instrumental in the pas
sage Of the Dam bill because of
the effective and clear manner in
which they showed exactly what
type of site was under considera-
ton.
What photographer anywhere is
better fitted, by reason Of a
thorough knowledge Of his art and
a wealth of valueable experience,
TO take your Christmas portraits?
See Hetzel the Photographer for

FINE TALK BY MRS. ANDERSON

Notes From Abroad was the in
tfiguing title OF the equally in
triguing talk given yesterday by
Mrs Frank +. Anderson for the
Women's Ten thousand club at its
meeting held in the club house.
Mrs. Anderson has lived abroad
for the past five years during which
time she has kept up her member
ship in the club, and in her intro
duetory remarks she expressed hei
pleasure at being once more at q
club meeting and with her friends
again.
Stating that she was much bet
ter at gossiping than at giving a
political or economic lecture, and
that as a result she would gossip
Of her travels in Europe, Mrs An
derson gave a delightful infor-
mai account of some OF the coun-
tries she has visited. Being possess
&c Of a ready wit and a gift of
making vivid and clear TO her aud
fence the places she describes, Mrs.
Anderson gave a fascinating talk,
whose only drawback was that il
was too short.
Since most people 90 first to
France, and because it holds first
place IN the hearts of many traY-
elers. Mrs. Anderson spoke first Of
the charm of that country and Of
the courtesy and easy good nature
Of its people as well as Of the air
OF freedom which pervades its life.
In discussing Paris she described
not only the Paris that the ordin-
ary tourist sees, the Paris Of gal
leries. cafes, and shops, but the
Paris of the left bank, and the La
tin quarter
The glittering life of the Riviera
and the beauties OF its scenery were
next described after which Italy.
was discussed, Mrs. Anderson point
ing out that under Mussolini's re-
gine, conditions were greatly i'm
proved, at least as far as the tray-
eler was concerned.

reference TO Naples, lovely, pictur-
esque. Sorrento, Amalfi and Capri.
followed. and then Mrs. Anderson
spoke Of Spain, not the coSmopoh-
tan modern city of Madrid, but the
Spain of Andalusia and Seville,
that Spain with a surface gaiety
which is underlain by a haunting
sombreness and which is the real
Spain.
Describes Arabs
In AlgierS Mr. and Mrs. Ander-
son took a villa where they lived
for weeks and learned to know the
people intimately Mrs. Anderson
described the Arab peoples and the
country itself where adventure, ex-
citement and romance seem always
Just around the corner.
From Africa she took her audi
ence to picturesque Dalmatia on the
Adriatic, then to the. Bavarian Alps,
and brought her talk TO close with
a statement OF European women's
idea of American women. That
American women are, on the whole,
better looking, better dressed, that
they keep their youth and good
looks longer than any other wo-
men is the prevailing opinion, but,
also that Americans are cut to
