Commenting upon the signature drive, Mrs John r. Sippel. presi-
 dent of the General Federation
 says: Tt is doubtful if a larger group of women in this country ever cooperated in a single inten- sive effort. Approximately 5000 900 women belong to the organiza- tions affiliated with the National Council of Women. They believe that the International Congress will do much to foster goodwill among women and they are keenly interested in it's success. They are convinced that the signatures will enhance the prestige of the enter prise with foreign governments"
 The organizations cooperating with the signature campaign and the International Congress will also take part in a comprehensive exhibit of the work of organized womanhood which will occupy 2,400 square feet of floor space at the Century of Progress exposi- ton. A third project in connection with the exposition which the or ganiZations have also endorsed is the publication of a book contain ing the most comprehensive his- tory of the woman movement which has yet been assembled.
 Member organizations of the council besides the General Fed eration are: the American Asso- citation of University Women, the Association of Women in Public Health, the American Homemade CTS association, the Indianapolis Council of Women, the Information al Sunshine society, the May Wright Sewall Indiana council, the Medical Women's National associa- tion, the National Association of Colored Women, the National Council of Jewish Women. the Ma tlonal Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs, the National Kindergarten association, the National Motion Picture league. the National Kindergarten association, the National Motion Picture league, the National Wo- mems Christian Temperance union, the National Women's Relief sO- ciety. the Needlework Guild of America. the Osteopathic WOmen's s National association, the Rhode Island Council of Women, the Ser vice Star legion, the Supreme For est Woodmen's circle, the Wo- mems International League for Peace and Freedom, the Woman's National Farm and Garden associ- ation and the Young Ladies' Mu- tual Improvement association.

Ell centric GROCERY STORES OPERATE
ALONG THOROUGHLY MODERN METHODS

with advice if 1t is necessary.
The old slovenly type of grocer
who wandered from the back
of the store with a scoopful
of sugar, to be weighed at the
front end has vanished with
the old cracker barrel. You get
what you want, when you
want it.
BY far the greatest improve
ment in grocery stores is in
the ethical line. No more are
hands included in apportioning
out meats and other articles
which must be weighed. And
the customer who trades by
ordering, either over the tele-
phone or by means of the sales
man, can now depend upon
getting exactly what is order
ed or getting a satisfactory ad-
justment. They don't palm
off the undesirable goods on
the unseen customer as quite
frequently happened in the old
days.
Ell Centro's grocerymen are
alert, energetic and modern
businessmen. They know that
success in their business is
based on a quick turnover and
there is a thoroughly whole
some rivalry to attract and
keep trade through the med
ium of high class goods, fair
prices and courteous service.
Probably no city of its size
in the country has more up-to-
date grocery stores than Ell
Centro. 1t is rapidly becom-
ng the shopping center for the
valley in the grocery line as it
has been in other lines. OPP
portunities to buy in large
quantities in the coast markets
in some cases made possible
through the operation of their
own trucks-has done much to
expand Ell Centro's grocery bus
iness.
1t might be somewhat i'm
modest to mention, but still
it is a fact, that advertising is
another medium entering
largely into the groceryman's
success. Through it he tells
the housewife (the family pur-
chasing agent) what he has
to sell and for how much.
That is what brings her to his
store and if his goods, prices
and service are as he advertis-
es, his business success is GER
tain.
Imperial Valley press., 1932-10-20

Prompted by the numerous
grocery store advertisements
appearing in this issue of The
Press, and which is a feature
of each Thursdays edition, a
reporter was led to make a
few general observations on the
grocery business in Ell Centro.
We are advised to see our
dentist at least twice annually;
We are perhaps able to buy a
suit of clothes once or twice a
year; our tailor gets a shot at
the family pocketbook semi
monthly, if we are renters we
see the landlord once a month
and If we are property own
erS we see the tax collector
TOO darned often.
But the grocery man is the
fellow we have to see daily.
Perhaps not quite as often as
that for quantity buying has
to be taken into consideration,
but the grocery man hits the
family exchequer more often
than any other line of busi-
ness.
And a visit to any of the
splendid grocery stores will
prove that they are we'll pre-
pared for business. Here is ev-

Chamber Obtains
Information On
Mexican Journey

In reply to many requests for in
personally conducted excursion to
Mexico, sponsored by the Los An
geles Chamber of Commerce, the
Ell Centro Chamber of Commerce
has obtained information and fold
ers descriptive of this tour, which
will be held this year from Novem-
ber 8 to "a.
The party will leave Los Angeles
November 8 at 3:15 by special train,
and travel to Mexico City, where
week will be spent, by way of No
gales, Hermosillo, Ciudad, Mazatlan
and Guadalajara, where the party
will remain two days. Side trips
have been arranged to the float
ing gardens, pyramids and other
points. The entire tour, Is days,
promises to be delightful as Mexi-
CO will be most attractive at this
time of year.
This trip, conducted for the past
eight years, is annually becoming
more popular and those who have
made the trip have commended
the Los Angeles Chamber on the
manner in which the tour is hand
led. Charles P. Bayer, who is in
charge, states that reservations are
necessarily limited and urges
those who wish to make the trip
to send in their reservations at an
early date. Information as to rates
and routes may be obtained at Ell
Centro Chamber headquarters.

REPORT RELATES
CASES TAKEN TO
JUSTICE COURT

Humanity's parade of troubles
through a justice court, shorn of
the details, was echoed today by
report prepared by Mrs. I. May
field, wife of Judge I. Mayfield,
for submission to the board of free
holders now preparing a draft of a
proposed county charter.
The report shows that 321 GRIM
inal cases, including 20 insanity
and intemperance cases and Is
search warrants, were filed during
a period from Ocobter l, 1881, to
September 30, 1882, the time COW
cred by the entire report.
During that time So preliminary
hearings we're held, and Judge
Mayfield presided over 20 misde-
meanor trials. Two we're jury
trials. Eight defendants were cited
TO juvenile court.

erything that the housewife
needs to keep the members of
the family we'll fed and in good
health.
Gone is the old-time grocery
store with its open cracker
barrel, its stock of goods flung
around any old way, exposed
to dust and dirt. The most
modern refrigeration methods
keep perishable merchandise in
perfect condition for consump-
tion. Neatly wrapped package
goods have supplanted the old
fashioned method of sales from
the bulk. In most stores the
price of each commodity is
plainly marked so that there is
no danger of one price for this
customer and a different one
for some other patron.
Efficiency is the watchword,
not only in the manner in
which goods are displayed but
in the arrangement of the var
ious departments of the stores
and in the activity of the per-
sonnel. The customer can see
what he wants and how to get
it. The clerks are ION their
toes, eager to serve prompt
ly and courteously and to help

WHEAT GROWERS
IN VALLEY HAVE
APPROVED SEED

F. NJ. Ballou of Ell Centro and
L. c. Hawk of Bonds corner, are
the only two wheat growers in CAL
ifornia whose white federation
wheat seed has been approved un-
der the California approved seed
plan as maintained through the
University of California. division
Of agronomy.
This approved seed goes under
tile trade name "Calaproved"
meaning that the seed has met all
the requirements of the division of
agronomy as to purity, germinat-
ing ability, absence of cracked ker-
nels, freedom from smut, etc.
Those wishing to purchase this
seed may obtain it from the own
ers, but H. Lee Landerman, as
sistant farm advisor and agron-
omy specialist, points out that the
supply is limited to little over 900

than criminal cases, reaching a
total of only 277.
Civil cases numbered 284. Re-
marks regarding disposition of these
cases shows that so defaults were
entered, IL confessions of judgment
were filed, 81 trials and hearings
on motions were held, AZ were dis
missed as being settled out of
court, and 143 are yet incomplet-
ed. Seven of these actions we're
appealed to the superior court.
Small claims cases reached to-
tai of 119. These cases going to
trial numbered 81, while defaults
and confessions of judgment en-
tered totaled 81. Twenty-one cases
were dismissed, or settled out of
court. The remainder are still
pending.

Levies Recommended
To Balance Budget

FORT WORTH. Tex. Oct. TO-
W.D-A sewage tax, a monthly
charge of rs cents for garbage COL
lection, and municipal levy on
vehicles have been recommended
as devices for balancing the budget
of Fort Worth.
The three levies would raise net
revenue estimated at 100000. One
half of the amount would be used
to reduce the ad valorem tax rate
IS cents, and the other half to re-
tire the city's deficit of $1,250,000.

bushels and that it will last but
short time
Benefit of good seed is shown by
the fact that 65 bushels were har-
vested per acre by L. M. Ferguson
using approved seed. This was the
highest yield per acre but the ay-
erage for the experimental plots,
Landerman states, was close to 38,
while that for fields of ordinary
wheat seed runs to less than 25
bushels per acre.

by Walter Damrosch for Series A
students during the NBC Music
Appreciation Hour on the COM
