Siren Will Hail
Airmail Arrival

Imperial Valley postmasters are
asked to keep a record of the num-
Der of envelopes presented for dis
patch on the first airmail flight
from the valley June Is, in order
that a grand total will be avail

Mexican Unhurt
In Severe Fall

Many queer antics have graced
the corridors of the county court
house, where attorneys have wran-
gled. politicians have argued and
prisoners have pleaded, but the
queerest Of these came yesterday
afternoon on the east stairs from
the first to the second floor lobby.
A harmless Mexican on business
bound was the victim of what is
perhaps the queerest tumble the
court house has ever seen, when
he slipped on the tenth step from
the bottom and came bouncing
down.
No sooner had the Mexican
slipped than he doubled into a
ball, head and feet tangled to-
gether, and began rolling. On each
step some delicate portion of his
anatomy struck rather forcibly. The
fall was climaXed at the bottom by
a grand slam which succeeded in
untanglng the ball, and sending
several Mexican coins flying to all
parts Of the lobby.
While the Mexican picked him
self up, rubbing numerous sore
spots and looking about in a be-
wildered way, a companion went
about gathering up the stray coins,
leaving the condition of the one who
fell for later investigation. Both
continued on their way saying lit
tie.

|. Y. BUILDING
AND LOAN FIRM
SHOWS GROWTH

Imperial Valley Building and
Loan association is one of the few
in the state showing a growth in
total resources and continued loans,
according to E. w. Anderson, eX-
aminer for the state building and
loan commission, who completed an
audit of the associations books this
morning.
The cash reserve, he said, is
three times that which is required
and the association shows a profit
in business from January l to
June 7.
The loan situation is in splendid
condition, according to Anderson.
A majority of the building and loan
associations in the state have
ceased loaning altogether or the
few loans they are making are
dwindling.
Imperial Valley Building and
Loan association is a local one,
officers and directors being local
residents interested in the growth
and development of the COM
munity. Hugh T. Osborne is
manager.
