Cited for Value

The hundreds of visitors who
have inspected the new Cafritz

their approval of its many star
tling innovations of design and
equipment.
The CafritZ organization has es.

due to the economies of large
scale operation and the conse-
quent purchasing power which
has been reflected in the constant
addition of the latest features in

ing with the lowered cost of the
present market.
The new Emerson Street homes
effectively demonstrate what the
resources of this organization
have acconN olished in the present
market. New standards of COM
fort and convenience have been
presented in homes Of moderate
price that leave nothing to be de-
sired in the matter of attractive
architectural treatment, practical
planning, smart interior decora'
ton, and equipment, features that
add to the joy of home ownership
and tighten the housewives tasks.
The Cafritz Model Home has
been charmingly furnished by

out the Colonial theme in the
blending of attractive Colonial
reproductions with rich color

SLIGO VALLEY
HUB Of NEW
EXTENSION
Park Beauties, Added Traffic
Arteries Stressed as AttraC-
tive Feature

One of the best examples Of
the substantial manner in which
the residential needs of Wash
ington's rapidly expanding popu-
lation are being met by respon-
6ible real estate developers is
found in the new North Wash
ngton communities.
Current developments under
the sponsorship of the North
Washington Realty Company take
full advantage of their favorable
location along the Districts
northern border.
Besides the natural advantages
OF gently rolling land at an alti-
tude of over 300 feet above the
White House, the North Wash
tngton sections have benefited
greatly by the comparatively re-
cent extension and improvement
OF the city's main arterial streets
northward.
Easily Accessible
Now Thirteenth and Fourteenth
Streets leading into Georgia Ave-
nue. and Sixteenth Street direct
to the District line make this
new residential area Immediately
accessible. Work nearing com
pletion on the new Piney Branch
Road, underpass at the District
line and extensions of the route
into Maryland, will open a new
fast traffic artery to downtown
for residents of the North Wash
tngton subdivisions.
Chiefly centering about the
newly dedicated 600-acre Sligo
Valley Park, these new communi-
ties have experienced an amazing
growth in the brief periods dur
tng which they have been opened
TO the public.
Sligo Park Hills, within a few
years, has grown to a develop
ment of IS modern homes, all of
which are individually owned
and occupied except the few new
ones now offered for sale. North
Hills and Highland View of
Sligo Park, though started after
Sligo Park Hills, are both show
ing the same marked progress.
Perhaps the greatest impetus
given these home developments
was the comparatively recent in
corporation of the naturally pic
turesque Sligo Valley as an i'm
portant part of the general plan
of developing a complete park
system around the District.
In keeping with the surround
Ing natural beauty, the developers
of the new North Washington
communities have maintained the
open, uncrowded aspect Of the
area. All homes are completely
detached on wide lots that front
on paved streets.
Such modern facilities as water,
sewer, gas. electricity and ade-
quate transportation service are
already provided. Excellent Mary
land public graded and high
schools are nearby, shopping dis
tricts conveniently at hand and
golf and country clubs in the
neighborhood.
Besides a very representative
showing Of new homes now being
offered by the North Washington
Realty Company and Moss &
Robinson, a number of choice

SPARTANS INSPIRE YOUTHS

1T IS pleasure for The Press again to
1 extend its congratulations to Central
Unions famous four-man track team
and their coach, for their fine work at
Los Angeles, the pleasure being doubled
by the fact that at press time Saturday
things did not look SO we'll for the boys.
Their refusal to quit and determina-
ton to try Just as hard as though they
had won the events they counted upon
winning, brought them through to VIC
tory
We have heard the remark that the
attention and publicity given these boys
is over-emphasized. 1t is an opinion that
we do not share. Not only are they four
crack athletes, but they are four fine
young men, whose heads have not been
turned by the success that has come to
them
Furthermore, although only young
sters themselves, they have set a good
example for still younger boys, who look
up to them as idols whom they would
like to emulate. We know of at least
half dozen little fellows who think
Myrel Gillett, Leroy Kirkpatrick, Ebert
Berry and Leo Madlem are greater
than President Roosevelt, Babe Ruth
Jack Dempsey or Professor Einstein, all
rolled into one. There is no finer trait
than youthful hero-worship. 1t is hon
est, clean and sincere. The object of it
can do no wrong in the eyes of his wor-
shipper.
1t is a fine thing for these little fell
lows and the objects of their alteration
recognize the responsibility that such an
honor places upon them. The athlete
must lead clean and wholesome life IT
he is to make good. Can there be any
better inspiration for the little tykes
than to know that if they would be like
their heroes they too must follow the
straight and narrow path-be physically
fit and keep up in their studies?
The pictures of the Spartan -Four"
appear in this issue of The Press. We
wish all Ell Centrans and residents of the
valley would learn to know them.
AS we have stated in this column be-
fore, credit for the fine showing the boys
have made is due in great measure to
their coach, Bob Armstrong and his as
sistant, Don Ketchen.
In addition to our congratulations we
express the hope that we will be writing
another congratulatory article next Mon
day after the boys have won the state
finals.
The long overdue warm weather ap-
pears to be approaching at last.

BEDTIME STORIES
You'll truly feed her, will you?"

You'll truly feed her, will you?"
"Oh, yes" said Mr.. Longears,
wondering what his wife and Nurse
Jane would say if they saw him
feeding a doll. You hop along to
school, Bunty, and I'll give your
doll her dinner"
Did you hear that, my sweet?"
asked Bunty, talking to her doll.
"I think Unkie Wig is very nice
and guess you do, also. And will
you take my doll for walk so she
will eat good dinner?" asked the
little orphan rabbit.
"Oh, yes,' answered Mr.. Long
ears, resigned-like and patient.
Anything if you will hop along to
school, Bunty, and not be late"
"Aw wite!" said Bunty, before
she thought And then, quickly, she
went on: "I didn't mean to speak
that baby talk, Unkie Wig" For
those two last words were all the
baby talk Bunty was allowed. ANY

you do next?" But she got some
bread and cake crumbs for Mr.
Longears and then, as he had told
Bunty he would do, Uncle Wiggily
took her doll out for walk in the
woods.

WARMING ON
NEW RACKE |

The Ell Centre Chamber Of Com
merce has been requested by the
Brawley chamber and the district
attorneys office to warn FL Gen.
tro merchants of new racket
which is being operated in the cit
les of Imperial Valley and which
has worked with success in. some
reported cases.
AS the report is given to the
local chamber two men are operat-
ing this racket and their plan is
to call on a merchant, look over
his store and stock, and announce
that they have a buyer for his
business. If the merrhant Is de-
sirous of selling they work the de-
tails of the sale, prices, etc. out
completely and then demand from
the merchant a deposit of quite a
substantial amount to prove to the
prospective buyer that the merchant
is acting in good faith. The mer-
chant, by this time being con-
vinced of the honesty of his call
ers, puts up the deposit and sew
eral are now trying to find these
two representatives of the prospec-
tive buyer.
AS this racket has been worked
successfully in the valley it is
probable that these two men have
left the community, but in case
they are still attempting to oper-
ate, merchants of Ell Centre are
warned by the chamber of theii
methods and urged to call the dis
trict attorney office if any per-
sons presenting such a scheme cal
on them.

SENATOR'S VOTE RIGHT

CTATE senators who stood firmly
~ against adoption of the Feigenbaum-
Cronin bill on Saturday are entitled to
the thanks of the electorate of California.
The bill proposed what amounted to
practical elimination of party lines in
this state by removing the 90 day per-
iod between registration and elections,
and permitting the voter to cast his bal
lot for any party he wished on election
day.
Supporting the bill was a powerful
lobby headed by the Hearst-Hiram John
son-Mc Adoo-Rolph combination, john
sons son leading the battle for the bills
passage. 1t has been openly admitted
that the real purpose of the bill was to
provide for the reelection of Johnson to
the senate next year.
Senator Johnson knows that his own
party is bitter against him for his deser-
ton of the G. o. P. in the last election,
when he openly campaigned for Roose-
welt. He fears defeat when he comes up
for reelection, and throwing aside the
registration requirement wbuld enable
many Democrats to vote for him at the
primaries in return for the help given
last year.
Among the senators who opposed the
bills passage was Senator Ben Hulse of
Imperial county. He was one of small
group singled out for working upon"
by the Hearst papers. The names of the
group were published in Hearst paper
last week, with the admonition to voters
to lombard the senators with kilograms
urging them to support the Feigenbaum-
Cronin bill.
Aside from its undesirable features
from a Republican viewpoint, the meas
ure was dangerous Granting that the pri-
mary method is defective, passage of the
bill would have made matters worse,
each election being more of free-for-
all race than it is at present.
The vote was another indication that
Ben Hulse can be found on the right
side, that he is not to be stampeded and
that he has the courage of his convic-
tions.

much given to sweet phrases, drew
pen picture of Feis in which the
latter was compared with Justice
Brandies in mentality and pictured
as a veritable Don Juan, irresist-
able to women.
How do you Ike it?" Feis was
asked.
He emitted a grunt of disgust
and said:
ut makes me feel like a debu-
tante at her first party"
Feis might be called liberal in
his economic theories-not that he
wants to overturn the present &C.
onomic order but he thinks it will
stand considerable mending. To him
the Smoot- -Hawley tariff act was
an abomination and the root OF
much of the worlds misery.
In curing the present economic
illness. he believes that tariffs
must be reduced, the war debt prob
lem settled and monies stabilized
He will have ample opportunity to
work toward those ends in London
