PRESS ENDORSES SAN ROBINSON


As candidate for the assembly from this
"A district, The Press is glad again to
have the pleasure of supporting Samuel
s. Robinson, incumbent, who is seeking
reelection.
Robinson was drafted for this office
over a year ago by the newspapers of
the valley to fill out the unexpired term
of Myron D. Witter who had died in
office.
A rancher who had served Imperial
county faithfully in many capacities out
side of public office, Robinson did not
seek the appointment and was only in
duced to do so after considerable persua-
sion had been used.
He went to Sacramento 'cold". as the
sporting term expresses it, with the leg
islature in the midst of its session, truly
a trying time for a newcomer to enter a
legislative body. Nevertheless Robinson
soon found himself and make good as
his friends and sponsors felt sure he
would.
Fair-minded persons will agree that
man who accepted another's burden as
Robinson did, and carried it successfully,
is entitled to chance to do the CARRYING
in his own right, if he so wishes. Rob
inson stepped into the breech when I'M
perial Valley needed him, and at sac
rifice of his own personal time and in
terests.
He rendered a public service that
should not be overlooked or forgotten now
that he comes before the voters asking
them to give him the opportunity to
serve them again.
An appeal for support of Robinson
solely because he went to the assembly
would merit the rejection of voters, if
Robinson had not made good at Sacra-
mento and demonstrated his ability as
legislator
A real "dirt farmer" whose avocation
was not changed by his service in the
assembly, Robinson is also sound think
er, man of good judgment, able to see
and discuss matter from all sides, and
having made his decision, possesses the
ability to stick to it.
With the experience gained in his
previous service at Sacramento, plus his
natural talents, Robinson we believe, is
better equipped to serve Imperial county
than any of the other candidates seek
ing the office.
He has the respect and confidence of
citizens in all parts of Imperial Valley

Hicks Unable To
Name COmrade

Bond for Leonard Hicks, 23-year-
old Negro, was set at $1,000 and next
Wednesday fixed as the date of a
preliminary hearing when he was
arraigned before Judge I. Mayfield
yesterday afternoon on a charge of
burglarizing the U. S. Grant Auto
Equipment store at Fourth and
Main streets Tuesday night.
Hicks, who was arrested by city
patrolmen after night watchmen
saw several automobile tires in the
alley, where they had been thrown
from an upper window, will be CIV
en- a chance to offer his defense
when the hearing is had to deter
mine if he shall be held for trial
by the superior court.
He was aided by a confederate
in gaining admittance to the store,
Hicks admitted to officers. The
other man, whom he could not
name, was to have waited in the
alley to pick up the tires as Hicks
threw them from the window. This
individual apparently was frighten-
ed away by the unexpected appear
ance of Tom Stewart, night watch
man.

saved Mr.. Longears. Now the rab-

of his basket which was caught on

What is so funny?" asked a

crawling around amid the green
needles of the tree, for it had
needles, or something very like
them, on its branches instead of
leaves.

said the Bug.
"Oh, yes, my airship, of course"
agreed Mr.. Longears. II don't
want to lose that. 1t was lucky I
was helped, by the birds, down into
this soft Christmas tree with my
airship, or we both might have been
broken to bits. AS it is I am quite
comfortable. I can easily climb
down. But it will not be so easy
to lower my airship."
NO" said the Squiggler. "Per-
faps better way would be for you
to come down, buy more balloons
to fasten to your clothes basket
and then it would rise up out of
the tree and you could fly back
home"
That's a good ideal I'll do It'll"
said Uncle Wiggily. THANK you,
Squiggler, for thinking of that"
1t did not take Uncle Wiggily
long to climb over the edge of the
basket, step out on some of the
branches of the Christmas tree and
start to climb down to the ground
Of course this wasn't q regular
Christmas tree, with lights, pres
ents and all that. In fact it would
not be a Christmas tree until De-
cember. But it was the beginning
of one.
"Will you stay here and watch
my airship while I go buy some
new balloons to take the place Of
those the birds picked holes IMP"
asked the rabbit gentleman of the
red-spotted bug.
Surely I will" was the answer.
So Uncle Wiggily started off
through the woods, up hill and
down hill, looking for place to
buy new balloons. All Of sudden,
when he was in deep, dark, dis
NAL place, he heard voice saying:
There he is nowl Chase himl"
"Oh, my goodnesSp thought the
rabbit gentleman. This must be
one of the Bad Chaps I'm going
to hop fast!" So he hoped fast
but he heard some one running
after him calling:
stop! Stap! Wait"
mo, I'm not going to stop!" an
swered the rabbit. "Oh, what a
queer adventure this isl" he said.
All of a sudden he tripped over a
vine and fell. The next moment
he heard some one saying:
Here, Uncle Wiggily! I have
brought you some new balloons for
your airshipl And there was q
| jolly old monkey doodle gentleman
with. a bunch of red, green, blue
yellow and purple balloons.
II saw your airship come down
in the Christmas tree,' chartered
the money. II thought you might
want to buy some new balloons, SC
1 came to sell you some. But you
started to run and I had to run
after you 1 had my little monkey
boy with me and he said to chase
you, so I did and now I've caught
you"
"Well, I'm glad you caught ms
and not one of the Bad Chaps
said the rabbit. Then he bought
come new balloons, climbed up IN
the Christmas tree, fastened then
on his airship which then rose ur
again as light as feather. So Mr.

A MOVIE STAR DIES

n movie star unique in the film world
II has heard the final summons.
He was unique because he was so diff
ferent from the general run of film cell
ebrltles. He never haggled over his
wages, but took what was given him:
never insisted that his name should be
in electric lights over theatres where his
pictures were playing; never squabbled
over the size of type, or position in which
his name appeared in programs or bill
ing.
He never endorsed a safety razor, or
a shaving soap, or a brand of cigarette,
never got into any scandal, never was
divorced, never drove about in a high
powered car with naughty disdain for
traffic rules and the rights of others.
He was devoid of all the flapdoodle and
vanity that engulf so many of Holly
woods inhabitants who have achieved
success in the film world.
AT all times he did as he was told;
he was modest, friendly and a credit to
himself. With it all ne had worlds of
talent and his acting brought thrill of
delight to all who watched him perform
or the screen and to juveniles he was
indeed star supreme.
He was not a Super-man; he was not
a man at ALL Rin-Tin-Tin is no more.
He was a star actor and he was a star
Cog.
