WILL RESUME
TREE PLANTING

Continuing the tree planting
campaign which was started last
year the Ell Centre Chamber of
Commerce has obtained another
supply of Palo Verde trees and
these are now being distributed at
very small cost by Mrs. j. S,
Jones, chairman of the chamber
tree planting committee. Th e
| trees may be obtained by calling at
Mrs. Jones home at 600 Wensley
avenue in the morning hours
While all the trees distributed last
year were small, this years sup
ply is in varying sizes and those
who prefer to plant larger trees
can do so.
These trees are so reasonable in
planting on the streets of Ell Cen
tro in order to beautify the city
This includes planting in the park
ing ways or along the edge of the
sidewalks. They are not for yard
planting and, in order that as
many streets as possible may be
beautified, Mrs. Jones urges that
those desiring trees for inside their
lots and yards purchase them at
a local nursery. Last year 2,50C
Palo Verde trees, or 10 miles OF
trees, were planted and if another
$500 are planted this year Ell Cen
tro will present to visitors an i'm
preston of a city of trees ano
gardens.
November and the first half OF
December are the best times fol

ell up, by next summer the trees
will be sturdy and attractive.
These trees ore so reasonable in
cost that Mrs. Jones is urging
this year that those living next to
vacant lots plant Palo Verdes along
the edge of such lots. Such trees
will only need care short time
she points out, as the city will
water them and any person should
be glad to spend 25 cents for two
trees to plant on vacant lot in
order to improve the appearance
of the neighborhood and help make
Ell Centro beautiful.
Planting of trees on the roads
leading into Ell Centro will not be
neglected as the junior chamber
of commerce has to its credit the
planting on the San Diego high
way of trees for distance of three
miles. That organization is plan
ming to cooperate with land own
ers on this highway and extend
this planting two miles further
westward, giving five miles oi
shaded highway which will eventu-
ally, under this plan, become a
beautiful, tree-lined drive.

SIX CLINICS
IN OPERATION

Increase in scope of the child
guidance clinics of the state since
the work was begun in 1929 was
outlined in talk given Wednesday
at the Ell Centro Chamber Of
Commerce luncheon by Miss Amy
tbs Richie, psychologist of the Pat
ton unit of the child guidance
clinic, which includes Imperial
county in its section. The first
clinic was established under the
bureau of juvenile research and
later taken into the department
of institutions under DR.. James M.
Toner, with an appropriation for
statewide work There are now
six clinics doing corrective and
preventative work in the state.
Miss Richie pointed out that if
six of the hundreds of children
studied by each child guidance
clinic are SO directed that they
DO not become public charges, the
amount saved the taxpayers is
enough to support the clinical unit
for an entire year. That the pre-
ventive work being done by this
department is effective is proven
by the fact that in 1929 there were
long waiting lists of children to
be committed to the reform schools
of the state and the Preston
school was planning to build an
additional cottage. There are no
waiting lists at any of the schools
at the present time, the Preston
cottage was never built and Whit
tier has one cottage which is not
being used.
Believing that delinquency is a
state of mind which tends to in
crease, Miss Richie pointed out
that if trained persons can find
what is causing the delinquency
and correct the same, the individ-
ual Immediately becomes normal
Many children studied in the
clinics are not bad children, they
may be children poorly adjusted
to their surroundings, children
who are secretive, those who have
trouble learning reading, arithme-
tic or any one subject, children
who are below normal in intelli-
gence or children who are unusual
ly bright. The aim of the clinic is
to adjust children so that they
may be normal, to make sub-nor-
NAL children as nearly normal and
as happy as possible and to find
proper outlets for the brilliant
children.
Here In February
The clinic consists of trained
psychologist, a psychiatrist and g
social worker which visits each
community of the state to take UP
the study of children suggested by
teachers in the schools. 1t is hoped
eventually to have child guild
snce clinic in every community in
the state in order that every child
may be studied rather than just
the few that can be given atten-
ton under the present method
The Patton unit of the clinic will
be in FL Centre in February al
which time as many children az
possible will be studied from the
various city schools.
Mrs. F. H. Mitchell announced
that DR.. Francis Porter of Mon
rovia would be in Ell Centro or

lar clinic at which physicians o.

Tt has always been a practice for
Ievery American embassy, legation and
consulate to observe July Fourth at
their posts in every part of the world.
This year they are giving these OBJ
servances a decidedly Bicentennial fla
vor and for the past months the diplo-
matte mail pouches have contained
helps and hints from the United States
Commission for these celebrations so
America honors her greatest.
Many foreign cities are planning their
own tributes. In Budapest, Hungary,
they are planting a tree near Wash

there is being held a special Fourth
of July performance at the Albert
Theatre in George Washingtons hon.
or, and Italy is inaugurating a series
of lectures at the Royal italian Uni
versity for Foreigners in Perugia to
celebrate the Bicentennial, with For
eign Minister Grandi officiating. SWe-
den, Japan, Canada and others also
informed the federal commission of
plans for festivities.
One hundred and fifty-siX years ago
George Washington struggled unherald-
ed with his rabble army for the great
est stakes history has ever known. He
was fighting to make a great people
free and independent. The world, If
it thought of him at all, laughed at the
foolishness of the unequal struggle. To-
day, uncounted millions of citizens of
the country he fought for and fathered
are paying him homage, and foreign
countries pause to join in this great
tribute.

BICENTENNIAL CELEBRATIONS
WILL FEATURE JULY FOURTH

If George Washington were to ride
Ills country today it is safe to say
| that, no matter in what city, town or
village he might stop and hitch his
horse, he would find Ma putting on
her bonnet. Pa busting off the car
seat and Johnny tying up the dog, to
join the rest of the citizens in com
munity celebration of the two hun
dredth anniversary of his birth.
Americas day Of all days this year
belongs to George Washington. Clear
across America, the mountains, the
plains and the shores are literally ring
| ing today with praises of the great
American whose Bicentennial is being
celebrated this year with vigor and
patriotism unsurpassed in the history
Of our country.
More than 10000 towns and cities
have sent in reports to the headquar-
tiers of the United States George Wash
ington Bicentennial commission of local
bicentennial committees which have
made definite plans for this day. And
plans are going forward with increas-
ing enthusiasm for the remainder OF
the Bicentennial Celebration-u until
Thanksgiving Day, the day on which
the celebration officially closes.
| On the anniversary of the proclama-
ton of American Independence, the
bicentennial celebration of the birth of
the man who more than any other
made that independence a fact reaches
a high point. There is scarcely a civil
lied country today where there is not
some observance of this 156th glorious
Fourth of July; and, according to re-
ports pouring into the headquarters of
the United States George Washington
Blcentennal commission, these honors
all take the form of tribute to George
Washington.
The celebrations will extend to all
Army posts, National Guard units, Ma
val bases, etc., throughout the coun-
try. In New York, Massachusetts, Con-
necticut and the other New England
states and down the eastern seaboard
all the way to Florida there will be
Colonial cavalcades, with filters and
vi o1lllllC1o, llldl LII
uniforms through the historic streets
of their cities and towns.
Many cities have chosen this day as
particularly appropriate for unwilling
of monuments to the Father of Our
Country. Richmond Virginia; Salt Lake
City, Utah. Seattle, Washington; Port
land, Oregon; Boston, Massachusetts;
and Cleveland, Ohio, are all holding
such ceremonies on the Fourth.
Probably the most outstanding local
celebration in the whole country will
be the dedication Of the restored Fort
Necessity at Uniontown, Pa. However
New York City, Kansas City, and
Washington, D. c., have also planned
unusually impressive celebrations for
the Fourth, beginning the day with
