You will look in vain for jack
sons name among the batting cham
pions of the American League. You
see, Joe had the Ill luck to come at
a time when base ball was thunder
ing with the deeds of Cobb.
In 1911 Jackson hit .408 for Cleve-
land, and yet he could not win the
title, for that was the season Cobb
set the league record with .42O. Cobb
hit better because. perhaps. he had
a glib tongue. Ty confesses that
Jackson was going at phenomenal
pace and might have done better
than .420. But one day in Cleve-
land Cobb went to work on Joe and
talked him out of the championship
talked him out Of it in q patron
tdng way. Cobb knew Just how.

COURT TRIAL TO
DECIDE QUESTION
OF FIRMS CLAIM

Whether Walter Carey. county
auditor, shall issue warrants to pay
demands made in 1929 by the I'M
perial Valley Hardware company
for labor and material for the I'm
perial Veterans Memorial hall will
be decided in a court trial October
4.
The date of the trial was set
yesterday when the petition of the
hardware company for writ OF
mandate forcing payment of the
demands was set on the law and
motion calendar.
S. L. McCrory, deputy district at
torney, was reviewing the case yes
terday afternoon with a view TO
presenting the county's case when
the matter comes to trial.
The demands were made, two on
August 2, 1929, and one October
81, 1929. All three were approved
by the board of supervisors. They
are for amounts totaling $222.73.
The suit is friendly one, be-
cause Carey wishes court order
for the issuance of warrants to pay
the demands. Funds appropriated
for the memorial hall were ex-
hausted before these demands were
made, and the demands now must
be paid out of other funds.

gily said:
mo, he isn't bringing any play
mates.'
What is making that noise?"
asked the rabbit lady. 1T sounds
like half a dozen boys
"It is Bub and he has a little
express wagon with him." answered
Mr.. Longears. 1T is the wagon
that is making the noise"
"Ohl" said Mrs. Longears, and
she hoped back into the bunga-
low to help Nurse Jane give the
kitchen floor it's Saturday bath.
Hello, Unkie Wig!' called Bub
as he pulled his wagon close to the
porch steps. Here I am Unkie
Wigp and he spoke like Baby
Bunty
yes, 1 see you," said the rabbit
But why the wagon?"
"Oh, that's for you to give me a
ride in, said Bub, for he was SO
small that he was just about the
size of the rabbit gentleman. Il
thought it would be fun if we took
it adventuring.
"Yes, that will be fun" agreed
Mr.. Longears. Il was just going ad-
venturing by myself, for I did not
think you were coming back, Lit
tie Bub. But since you are here,
we'll go together"
And will you ride me in my
little wagon?" asked the small boy
YES" said Uncle Wiggily. Get
in"
Bub sat in the wagon and Uncle
Wiggily began to pull him along
the path. All of sudden, when
Mr.. Longears thought he saw an
adventure just ahead of him, Bub
called:
Wait a minute! Hold on! Stop"
Whats the matter?" asked Un-
Gle Wiggily, looking back.
I've fallen out!" said Bub
please wait until I get in my
wagon again" So Uncle Wiggily
waited and then he hoped en-
again, pulling BUD down the WOOD
land path. All of a sudden the boy
called again:
"Wait Stopl I've fallen out
again!" And so he had. Once more
the bunny gentleman waited un-
til Bub was back in the wagon and
again the two went along through
the woods. And then, all of a sud-
den, Bub called again:
"Waitl Stop!'
Have you fallen out?" asked
Mr.. Longears.
mo, Unkie Wigl" answered the
boy with laugh This time 1
jumped out, for 1 saw the Bob Cat
sneaking along after US, so I jump
ed out and banged him on the
nose with stone"
Good" shouted Mr.. Longears
THAT was jolly adventure!"
Then he and Bub had. lots of fun
with the little wagon. And if the
box Of matches will cool off so as
not to melt the ice in the gas stove

ABOUT THE CHARTER

EROM time to time during the summer,
4 The Press has been furnished with
articles on the proposed county charter
which it has printed for the information
of its readers.
Similar articles will appear at various
intervals between now and the time the
charter is ready for presentation in its
entirety.
We commend these articles to our
readers for their information and study
The Press has been one of the county
charter movement sponsors and realizes
that the greatest possibility for the sue
cess of charter lies in full and frank
information on its purposes and provis-
ions being supplied to the voters.
Such information is contained in the
articles to which we have referred. Fair
minded citizens, even those who think
they are opposed to the charter form of
government, will agree that the propos-
ition is deserving of careful thought
1t should be given fair hearing and the
issue should eventually be decided strict
ly upon its merits.
There is no desire or intention on the
part of the board of freeholders chosen
to draw up a charter to force it upon
the people of this county or to condemn
those who oppose it. But they do feel
that the work to which they have given
so much time and energy during the hot
summer months, without compensation,
should be given a hearing.
Later on, when the charter has been
completed, it is planned to give the vot-
ers opportunity to hear its provision dis
cussed and debated in open meetings so
that all may know just what it means to
Imperial county and base their final de-
cision with reference to it on sound
judgment.

for the annual Homecoming of the
local Easter Star chapter at Mas

A pot luck dinner was served at
tables made attractive by colorful
Hawaiian leis, decorated ukuleles,
bowls of orange zinnias and ferns.
Miniature ukuleles served as place
cards for the assembled company.
Little Phyllis Purdy, garbed in
Hawaiian costume, distributed leis
which all those present wore dur
ing the evening.
A large birthday cake in honor
of the worthy matron, Mrs. A. N.
Bucklin, was served at the close of
the dinner. The meal was followed
by regular lodge ceremonies.

Over 10 pages of descriptive mat

THE LADIES SMILE

IF the women folks are wearing smiles

the cat is supposed to have adopted af-

in the back room where the heavy

WINTER
BY ID. C. PEATTM.

Frosty mornings bring back the
miracle of ice. Over the window panes
there may spread the beautiful forests
and gardens Of ice crystals. In the
heavy red clay Of the Virginia soil, and
some of the Maryland soil, frail for
ests Of ice spears pierce the surface.
Ice in thin film may be gathering TO-
night upon the brooks and runs, and
for O few hours in the morning, 1t may
lie upon the chilled and affrighted lit
tie rllls as they scamper out OF the
hills toward the Potomac.
Frost lies in a film upon the scarlet
Of the last blackberry leaf, or spreads
in silvery rime upon the sidewalk
when first you step out OF doors. Then,
in all likelihood it will be gone, as the
sun breaks forth. Late-rising folk
often see nothing of all this elfish
beauty; but those who go early to their
work behold it, and nature lovers know
1t we'll, for they know that there Is no
time for seeing things like early morn
ing.
Ice is less welcome when it breaks
open your milk bottles. At first glance
it would seem to be an extremely in
convenient eccentricity upon the part
Of water that at the freezing point II
should suddenly expand. No other
liquids 1 can think of do this. They
ali expand when heated and contract
when frozen into solidiSy. But water,
after contracting as you cocl it till II
reaches freezing. suddenly expands i'm
mensely at the freezing point, and 50
of course, do all liquids that contain
water, such as milk. II your bottle
doesn't break, the frozen milk will al
least push I'D the cap or the bottle.
It Is . lucky thing that water has
this idiosynerasy, for It enables ice to
float. If water got denser steadily as 4
became ice, then ice would be heavier
than water, and all ice would sink
