IMPERIAL VALLEY PRESS
A TRIPLE CALL

I'VE commend as a deserving cause, the
w benefit ball game to be played here
Thursday night for the benefit of the
local relief funds, and trust that the re-
spouse from the people of this commun-
ity will be a generous one.
The entire proceeds of the game will
be turned over to the local relief COM
mittee to be used in relief work this Win
ter among the needy persons of this city.
That fact alone would stamp it as de-
serving of the support of the people of
this community.
But there is another reason why the
attendance should be large one. The
opportunity to aid local charity is made
possible through the unselfish generosi-
ty of the ballplayers. They had de-
pended upon this game with a crack
San Diego team, for large crowd, and
upon the proceeds to replenish their own
treasury.
Instead they voluntarily offered the
proceeds to aid the local relief commit
tee and their generosity certainly should
be an inspiration to all of us. They side
stepped the opportunity to benefit them
selves in order to help those who need
it more.
Throughout the season these young
1eEloMS, anu lew not SO young, nave
provided Ell Centre with the finest kind
of clean, wholesome sport. That their
efforts have been successful and have
been appreciated by the public, is attest
ed by the large crowds that have been at
Wilson field night after night.
Here is triple call for Ell Centre to
turn out in full force-an opportunity
to aid local charity; chance to show
the ballplayers that we appreciate their
efforts and the pleasure of seeing a
fine baseball game between two of the
best teams playing in Southern Califor-
MIA.
Oh yes, the visiting team is from San
Diego, and while we are glad to have
them here, won't it be fun to help send
them back to the "big town" on the short
end of the score?
Just what is a color blind man going
to do regarding all these traffic paint
ings in the business section?

ing and hauling on the string he
heard a noise in the bushes and
he looked up, saying:
"Oh, you didn't need to bother,
Unkie Wig. 1 guess I can do it."
For he thought the rabbit gentle
man had come back to help him.
But it wasn't Uncle Wiggily.
Looking at the bush Little Bub
saw a small cat watching him with
big green eyes.
Hello, Pussyl" called Little Bub.
Il though you were Uncle Wiggily."
mo, I'm not Uncle Wiggily,"
mewed the strange pussy. rs he
here?"
Just around the corner sitting
on a toadstool,' said Bub. Did you
want him?"
YES" mewed the pussy. 81 did.
I'll get him! You stay where you
are, Sonny!"
MY name isn't Sonny, it's Bub,"
said the little boy.
We'll, Bub, you stay where you
are and I'll get Uncle Wiggily,"
said the pussy.
Then will you come back and
help me loosen my fire engine?"
asked Bub, who did not know who
the pussy was. But you can guess,
think.
Yes, I'll come back after I catch
Uncle Wiggily," mewed the pussy
and he skunk away through the
bushes. Bub went on untangling
his fire engine string, and, all at
once, he thought to himself:
THAT pussy said catch" Uncle
Wiggily. Catchl I don't like that
word. I just guess I'd better go
tell Unkie Wig" Just then, to his
surprise, Bub found that he could
pull his toy fire engine. The last
knot and tangle of the string was
loosed from the briar bush.
Hauling his engine behind him,
the little rainbow boy ran along
the path until he saw the toadstool
on which the rabbit was sitting.
Creeping toward the bunny was the
pussy with sharp claws and sharp
teeth. Bub touched the spring of his
lllC Cll6AlAC WllltIl wac WObAlAA dk'
At once the pump began to work
and out Of the rubber hose squirt
ed a stream of water Aiming this
at the pussy, Bub wet him good,
soaking him well. And Uncle Wig
gily, turning around on the toad
stool, cried:
why, it's the Bob Cat!'
"I though he was a pussy but
when he said he'd catch you I wet
himl" shouted Little Bub, jumping
up and down for joy. And then
the Bob Cat, soaking wet, ran
snarling into the woods and Uncle
Wiggily and Bub went home. And
# the balloon man doesn't fly up in
the air to give the dog star bone
to gnaw, I'll tell you next about
Uncle Wiggily's flower box.

Orders Defendants

With the judgment Of the local
superior court affirmed by the
court of appeals, an order was is
sued by Judge Vaughn N. Thomp-
son yesterday afternoon that Mrs.
Aida R. Graham, Ben Crowel and
j. T. Medqueaux pay to the sheriff
s525 principal and $3.50 interest,
representing a judgment in favor
of Mrs. Sue G. Pentecost.
The order further stated that
the sheriff is to turn the money
over to Ivan R. Bean, as a judg-
ment creditor of Mrs. Pentecost,
and that she and her attorney are
to sign a satisfaction of judgment,
on payment of the money.

for injuries suffered when Mrs.
Graham, Crowell and Medqueaux
broke into a house rented from
Mrs. Graham by Mrs. Pentecost,
causing Mrs. Pentecost to fall to
the floor. They were attempting
to remove furniture from the
house.

UNCLE WIGGILY AND BUB'S
PUSSY

Uncle Wiggily and Little Bub,
the rainbow boy, had gone to the
woods seeking advntures one day.
Bub pulled behind him, by a string,
his toy fire engine that had a
pump and squirted real water
through small rubber hose.
But, as might have been expect
ed. Bulbs engine was always get
ting caught in the bushes as he
pulled it along the woodland path.
And knowing if he yanked on it
too hard he would break the string
the rainbow boy kept calling to
Uncle Wiggily, who hoped on
ahead, to hop back and untangle
the fire engine. ~
Cant you loosen the q string
yourself this time, Bub?" asked Mr..
Longears after about the tenth
time the fire engine had been
caught and the bunny gentleman
had to hop back to loosen it. He
really started back to help Bub, as
I told you in the story last night,
but, all of a sudden, Mr.. Longears
thought to himself:
"Bub will never grow up if I
help him all the while. He must
learn to help himself" So that's
why Uncle Wiggily said: Cant you
loosen the string yourself this
time, Bub?"
"Oh, I guess So" answered the
rainbow boy, whose real name was
Bubble, for he had red cheeks,
blue eyes and golden hair, like the

Probably just to show it can't

from the war department. Every

muzzles of two ancient cannon.

you sit down on a toadsool, IN
kie Wig, and I'll untangle the
string of my fire engine"
"All right" said Mr.. Longears,
so he looked around for a nice,
soft toadstool upon which to sit
and rest. Bub was back of turn
in the woodland path, near bram-
BILE briar bush in which the string
of his fire engine was tangled.
81 hope I can untangle this" said
Bub, talking to himself as some
children do, for Bub was real
child and not rabbit. He and I'm
Gle Wiggily were great friends and
often went adventuring together
The string fastened to the toy
fire engine that squirted real WA
ter was much tangled in the briar
bush. Bub saw this as soon as he
had walked back on the path leay-
ing Uncle Wiggily sitting on the
toadstool.
"Oh, my goodness and a Jolly
popl" whispered Little Bub, as he
saw the tangle. This is going to be
worse than castor Oil Oh, yes!"
But, being a brave chap, though
he was called Little Bub, he be-
gan to work on the tangle, to
loosen the string from the briar
bush so he could pull his toy fire
engine along the path and go adj
Venturing with Uncle Wiggily.
ON. yes " said the rainbow boy
again to himself after he had loos-
el.ea a rev knots and tangles, "this
is worse than two castor oilsP

ARE you REGISTERED?

THURSDAY is the last day for citizens
to register so that they will be eligi-
bic to vote at the general election on
November 8.
This makes about the 'steenth time this
year that this column has cautioned vot-
ers to register. The last time we wrote
about registration ii was with the firm
determination that it would be the last
time. Citizens who have not registered
up to this time, we believed to be hope
less.
However, at the request of one of Ell
Centres leading citizens (the reader is
correct, the /. c. is of the fair seX) we
make this last appeal to any who have
not as yet registered, to do so before
Thursday night.
Our visitor assured US that she had
been prompted to register and had in
duced others to do so, because of a re-
minder in this column. With this proof
that our solicitation does have some eff
feet, we agreed to break our previous de-
termination and make this our swan
song insofar as writing about registra-
ton is concerned.
To the voter who has been registered
since the first of the year, we might eX-
plain that we are as tired of writing
about registration as he is of reading it
if he does read it. There have been many
elections this year and hence many oc-
casions for writing about registration.
Ell Centre voters who wish to register
must do so at the county clerks office
in the court house, There are no funds
left for placing canvassers on the street
as was done earlier in the year, and I'M
less some public spirited citizens wish to
give their time to registering, visit to
the court house is the only alternative.
If you have not registered since Janu-
airy l of this year, you must register be-
fore midnight on Thursday or you will
not be eligible to vote at the presidential
election.
