THE FAIR EDITION

IN presenting 80 pages of The Press to
its readers today, this publication does
so with feeling of pride for much time
and energy has been contributed by the
entire staff in preparing the news and
advertising matter contained therein.
The Press is happy indeed to dedicate
this issue first of all to the Imperial
County Mid-Winter Fair and to the vari-
Gus industries which make up the COM
mercial life of Imperial Valley.
From its inception, The Press has been
a firm supporter of the fair, believing it
to be a wonderful thing, not only for the
favorable advertising it brings to Imper-
ial Valley, but because of the opportun-
ity it gives to valley residents, to learn
more about the community in which they
live, and the chance offered the valley
to put itself on dress parade before the
rest of the state.
Equal pride is manifested in the vari-
Gus activities, agricultural, industrial,
commercial, civic and social, which are
combined in the daily life of the valley.
The Press is proud to be associated with
such activities and is proud to be able to
present information about them to its
readers.
We suggest that after readers have
finished with their copies of this issue,
they mail them to friends or relatives in
other parts of the country, that these
others may also learn of Imperial Valley
and its undertakings.
Above all We urge the fullest support
for the fair Every resident of the val
ley should visit it at least once and Of
tener if possible.

Salem Made Famous by
Its Ships and Traders

During the Revolution little Salem.
under leadership Of Elias Haskee
Derby, furnished and equipped 1853
privateers, carrying 1900 guns and
manned by 5000 men, equal to the en-
tire population Of the city, writes Wal
ter Prichard Eaton in the Washington
Star. At the end Of the war, naturally
Salem found itself with large feet,
much too large for coastwise trade.
and large star Of shippers and sea-
men trained to adventure and daring
navigation. Besides the ships and sea-
men, the little town possessed, in Der
by and. others, owners and merchants
of imagination and initiative. She
was all set for great things.
And great things came with rush.
The Derbys, the Crowinshields and the
rest sent their ships around Good
Hope, to the East Indies, and long
before the East Indian traders knew
the names Of Philadelphia, New York,
Baltimore or Boston, they knew well
the name Of Salem. Derby's famous
ship. the Grand Turk. in 1874 was
the first American merchantmen to
round the Cape Of Good Hope.
