NEW MODELS OF
DES0T0 ARRIVE
in Ell CENTRIC

A brilliant new DeSoto six made
its bow to the motoring public yes
terday and several models are or
display at the Fred r. Cross show
rooms at 674 Main street, Ell
Centro.
The new cars are strikingly beau
tiful in appearance and present
highly advanced features of op-
Grafton and construction, the finest
DeSoto ever built, according to the
local dealer.
The 1892 DeSoto may be recog-
nized by the alert dash of its
rounded racing car radiator, the
sweeping beauty of its European
custom type hood and deep over
hanging tenders. 1t is fully as
original and advanced as a per-
former, offering flashing accelera-

COUNTY SCHOOLS PLANNING TO
HAVE FINE EXHIBIT AT FAIR

One of the most interesting eX-
hibits at the fair is that entered
by the schools of the county which
demonstrates the actual program
of work undertaken in each COM
munity and which also gives vivid
picture of modern educational
methods.
Outstanding among the exhibits
will be that entered by Central I'm
ion high school, Since space must
necessarily be limitd, authorities
have decided to turn over the high
schools exhibit at the fair to the
science department.
A complete radio broadcasting
station will be erected by the de-
partment and messages will be sent
and received. Radio, one of the
most modern developments of today
is of interest to every one and this
amateur broadcasting set will be
scientifically correct in every de-
tail
The domestic science department
will exhibit a number of tempting
cooked foods, showing the valuable
training the future housewives of
the county are receiving. In addi-
ton, members of the cooking classes
will enter articles in the honey di-
vision, these articles being made
with honey instead of with sugar.
East Side high school will show
domestic science work also and in
addition a number of interesting
articles made in the shop will be

BY SALLIE V. III. PICKETT.

The President and Mrs. Hoover have
had issued from the White House in
vitations for two official receptions, the
one to take place Thursday night OF
this week in honor of the Senate be-
ing a sort Of return to congressional
society for the unusually brilliant re-
ception given at the Congressional Club
last week for the Chief Executive and
First Lady. while the one for Tuesday
night, January &c, is still further re-
turn of hospitality, as it is in honor Of
the members Of the House of Repre-
sentatives. The dinner last Thursday
night, in honor OF the diplomatic corps,
is said to have been one Of the most
brilliant events of this administration.
The President and Mrs. Hoover have
done the unusual thing of permitting
their names to be used as patrons for
a concert, that to be given Monday
evening, January IS, by Ignace Pade-
rewski, former prime minister OF the
Polish Republic. This concert is an
expression of gratitude to Mr.. Hoover
and this country for their gcnerosity to
Poland during the World War, and
Paderewski and the other artists on the
program will permit the entire proceeds
TO 20 for relief of the unemployed in
this country
This coming marks the eighteenth
tour Of the great statesman and mu-
sician in this country, and Just now
society folk are recalling his presence
Just at the close of the World War,
when he found relief from his own
worries and help for the distressed OF
other countries in selling the handi-
work of the foreign men, women and
children. One picture vividly fixed In
the minds of Washingtonians is the
tall and stately figure. standing in the
midst Of a crowd with his arms filled
to overfiowing with dolls made by the
distracted women of Poland and Russia.
Again there was called to mind his
first concert in the White House, when
he PLAYED for the President and Mrs.
Roosevelt Before his arrival at the
Presidents house, a runner went from
his hotel carrying a chair, the only
one the highly temperamental artist
would use at the piano while playing
and it was Immediately set before the
piano in the East -Jom.
Besides the President and Mrs. Hoo
yer, those holding boxes in Constitution
Hall for the Paderewski concert are
the Secretary of State and Mrs. Slim
son, the Chief Justice of the Supreme
Court and Mrs. Hughes, Jle Ambassa-
dor to Argentina and Mrs. Robert
Woods Bliss, Senator and Mrs. Walcott,
Senator and Mrs. Reed and others, to
lend brilliancy and interest to the Con-
stitution Hall horseshoe.
