DUTY TO THE PUBLIC

Before raising the taxes, our government
owes it to a long suffering public to make
every effort to reduce waste and inefficiency
and cut costs. 1t is unquestionably true that
lars year without damaging any legitimate
function of government The people back
home are looking to their senators and con-
gressmen to do just that.

GIVE OUR CHURCHES SUPPORT

Anyone who is able should set aside stat

tons are operated upon freewil offerings
and when expenses are to be curtailed too
often they feel the effects The work of the
church toward community betterment can
not be estimated. Better sacrifice some So

down on the church contribution.

VIKING LEADS CAPiTOL'S NEW
 BILL TONIGHT
Epic of Newfoundland Seal ing Perils Has Strong
 Love Theme

With many of the scenes filmed against the rugged and awe-in- spring background of ice-hedged Newfoundland, The Viking which Begins showing tonight at the Cap isol theatre. portrays the virile romance of 8 fighting love, the love of two strong men for one woman. The exciting and wholly unusual seal hunting and ship scenes are absolutely genuine, as this picture was actually filmed and recorded in sound in New foundland and on the Labrador ice-fields.
 26 Lives Lost
 The Viking" was produced by Varick F'rissell, who with 25 oth- CTS, lost his life when the Viking was actually destroyed through an explosion of the ships powder magazine, catastrophe which shocked the entire world.
 Every year, late in February millions of seals migrate north and always stop at the ice-fields which extend over vast area off Lab rador, where their young are whelp- ed. One of the most peculiar facts in connection with this an- nual event is that all baby seals are born either on March 1st or within two or three days of that date, the majority, however arriving on that exact day.
 Baby Seals Pure White
 When these babies are born they are pure white and cannot swim Their mothers leave them on the ice, returning at regular intervals to nurse them until they are from four to six weeks old. During this period the newborn seals change color and at the end of their nursing days are a glossy black and they have learned tc swim.
 The sealing fleet sails ito the ice" every year in the early days of March, with thousands of seal CTS aboard. These ships usually return with from twenty to seven- |.ty thousand skins in their holds depending, of course, upon the size

of the vessels and the varying fortunes of the hunt.
 Not Fashionable Fur
 The fur of the seals which are killed off Labrador is not the seal fur which is so coveted by ladies fair. The skins are transformed into leather from which boots and bags are later manufactured. The great value of these seals is in the heavy layer of fat that lies just underneath the skin, and which is refined into clear white, tasteless and odorless oil, used in the manufacture of. higher priced toilet soaps and perfumes. IL is also mixed with some grades of olive oil and is one of the best lubricating oils available.

JUNIOR CHAMBER
MEMBERS ENJOY
OPEN DISCUSSION

Individual and collective chests
of members of the El Centro jun
ior Chamber of Commerce today
are without the loads they have
been carrying for some little time,
principally as the result of round
table discussion this morning as the
organization gathered for its reg
ular breakfast meeting.
No entertainment and no speaker
was listed. President Clarence
Smith presided over the gathering,
in which every member of the or
ganization was privileged to bring
up any subject he saw fit to men
ton, serious or comic.
One definite result of the meet
ing grew out of the suggestion by
Al Smith that an open air break
fast meeting, with outsiders invited,
be held two weeks from today in
the city park. The meeting first
was suggested as an old timers
breakfast. A committee composed
of AL Smith, Russell Kliegel, P. V.
Harrigan and Louis McManus was
appointed to arrange the breakfast,
A motion was adopted to repair
the Ell Centro sign at the east city
limits. Other matters for discus
sion were the proposed yacht club,
a clean up and paint up campaign
and radio programs.

Ell CENTRIC MILK

SPLENDID RATING

Following an official milk scor-
ing contest just completed by the
Bureau OF Dairy Control of the
State Department of Agriculture,
results are available indicating
that the market milk supplied to
the consumers in FL Centro main
tains a general high quality. In
this contest a rating of 95.7 per
cent was received by the milk sup
ply figured on a volume basis.
These periodical surprise milk scor-
ing contests are held at irregular
intervals several times year
Samples of each distributors milk
are rigidly examined and the re-
suits averaged with the results of
the routine samples collected by
the local health department dur
ing the period since the previous
contest to give a definite percent
age rating of quality to the pro-
ducts of the different distributors
The local health department of
which DR.. Warren F. Fox is health
officer and Walter C. Macdonald
is milk and dairy inspector, has
charge OF the milk inspection ac-
tivities and the results obtained re-
fleet very favorably on their con-
scientious efforts in cooperating
with the dairy industry.
"As our existence is dependent
on fuel and building material alike,
food which holds them both is
worthy of a prominent place upon
the daily menu. Milk is an ex-
cellent source of calcium and phos-
phorous salts which are SO neces-
sary in the building and mainten-
ance of bone and teeth. Everyone
of us should receive liberal daily
allowance of milk, if only for the
sake of our bones and our teeth as
we all desire sturdy bone frames, y
