Yesterday was a day fraught with
significance, with memories grave
and gay, for two who have given
greatly TO the upbuilding Of I'M
perial Valley and who have in turn
drawn rich life from this desert
land. Leroy and Anna Holt observ-
ed their fortieth wedding anniver-
sary Sunday ana as they motored
through the eXpanSe of Imperial
Valley on their way to Los Ange-
les. the sight of lush green fields
set in the matriX Of taWny desert
must have brought back recollec-
tions of former times when the only
green in the valley was the green
sprig OF hope.
The Holts were married 40 years
ago yesterday in NeWtoWn, Missouri,
where Anna was a teacher and Le-
roy the son of a farmer, just set
ting out to win his spurs in the
world of business.
In 1900 the search for a milder
climate brought the Holts to Red
lands, where Mr.. Holt's brother, w.
F. Holt. was already established.
The elder brothers enthusiasm for
the newly opened imperial Valley
brought Leroy Holt TO the tiny ham,
let of Imperial in 1901 and here, in
lean-to up against the first store
building, the First National Bank
OF Imperial was established by the
Holt brothers and A. H. Heber, De-
cember 16, 1901.
During the first two years Mrs.
Holt and her children, Jessie and
James. remained in Los Angeles,
but in 1903. the growing settlement
OF Imperial was considered at last
to be a fit kabitation for women
and children, and the families Of
the first settlers began to arrive to
ioin them. Mrs. Holt can tell many
a tale of those days. The stories
seem very amusing, too, in the per-
spective Of 80 years, but when the
wind blew a hurricane for three
days and took the roof off the tent
house and the stove pipe with 1t,
it must have been quite strain on
/ the sense of humor Of the parents
of two small children.
The diminutiYe First National
Bank of Imperial was the parent
cell of a number OF banking insti-
tutions throughout the valley.
Banks Successful
In 1902 the Holt interests estab-
lished the First State bank in CAL
eXico and some months later Leroy
Holt purchased the bank at Holt

SISTER MARY'S
\ e KITCHEN
BY SISTER MARY
NEA Service Writer

MANY mothers have difficulty in
vi persuading small persons to
drink milk three times a day. II
d chocolate milk drink Is served
for luncheon it helps to break the
sameness and expectedness OF
plain milk and makes milk at the
other meals less difficult.
Chocolate syrup is most con-
venient to have on hand. 1t can
be used in numerous ways and
makes it possible to prepare choco-
late beverages with little effort
and small expenditure OF time.
OF course cocoa can be made in
the usual way, quickly chilled and
served but this takes longer than
it does to add two or three table
spoons chocolate syrup to a glass
OF cold milk.
Chocolate Syrup
One-half cake bitter chocolate,
1-2 cups granulated sugar, 2
cups water, Ia teaspoon salt, 2
teaspoons vanilla.
Crate chocolate. Mix sugar,
salt and chocolate. Add boiling
water to make a smooth paste and
slowly stir into cups Of boiling
water. Boil until syrupy. Cool
and add vanilla.
Use from two TO three table
spoons of this syrup to a glass Of
milk.

child on hot day. One teaspoon
dry cocoa and teaspoons sugar
can be used in place OF the choco>
late syrup if syrup is not at hand.
One egg, 2 tablespoons choco>
late syrup, 1 1-2 cups milk.
Separate white and yolk of egg
and beat white until stiff. Beat in
chocolate syrup. Add milk to yolk
and beat until well mixed Conn
bine mixtures, pouring the yolk
mixture into the white. Mix well
and serve. This will make two
glasses. The milk should be well
chilled in order to insure a palat-
ably cold drink.
Never put ice into a drink made
with milk. The ice dilutes the
drink and makes it unpleasantly
thin and tasteless.
The chocolate syrup can, of
course, be added 20 hot milk to
make a hot drirtr when wantedy -

Youth Explodes
Mystery Bottle

SHERIDAN, Wyo., July 10. U.R)

There was an explosion. Both

with Champion Jim LondoS, the

Londos has promised through
his manager, Ed White, that he
will open up with all of his
championship wares against Jud.
son. Duly impressed by Franks
recent two-hour draw with Ray
Steele and crushing defeat OF
Rudy Dusek, White writes:
Jimmy saves himself for
tough matches. A check.up
proves to us that JudsOn is
plenty good. You can say for
me that LOndOs will be out to
toss this boy in the shortest
possible order. We're not do

can tie up Ray Steele as 1
understand JudSOn did"
LondoS himself well remembers
a none too distant match in
which he could do no better than
go to a two-hour deadlock with
Steele.
While the Londos-Steele fracas
is largely instrumental in the
compilation of a heavy advance
sale, interest also is being cen.
tered around the homecoming Of
Paul Jones, absent for more than
a year locally, against Pat Nc
Kay. Fans here always have
been enthused over the deadly

Upton has played basketball for

played both football and basket
ball at Quantico for several years,
as has Farrell. McGrath has been

Mrs. Grinnell's Feat

When the sailfish doesn't take
to this bait, a No. 4 spoon is
used or perhaps what is known
as a feather" which conceals
the hook and which is brightly
colored, even having painted
fish eyes to initiate live bait.
- The experienced fisherman
usually sees the sail before he
strikes, as this species sWimS on
the surface or very near to the
surface, exposing his saillike fin
above the water. With the bait
100 yards out in the water, the
sail first strikes with his long
pointed Snoot to kill the bait.
The instant the strike is felt,
the drag or brake of the reel is
released for about 10 seconds
to give the bait the appearance
of having been killed and re-
naming in the same spot, as
sail fish insist on having their
food killed by themselves.
After counting 10, it can be
figured the sailfish is in the act
of swallowing its prey and wait
ing for the feel of this gesture
the sportsman applies the brake
and prepares for the fight to
pull him in. twenty-five minutes
is a very short period in which
to land a sail.
Three quarters of an hour is
the average and often it re-
quires an hour and more to
bring the big fellows aboard.
Something of a record in sail
fishing was made here 10 days
ago when Mrs. Oliver Grinnell,
of New York, landed a 31-pound
sail in 81 minutes, using a
three-ounce fly rod and a very
light weight four-Strand cotton
line, such as you'd use for a
two-pound bass in fresh water.
Considering the sail is the
hardest fighter in the water
and that he leaps and whirls
on his tail, Mrs. Grinnell's
catch is a feat indeed.

The distance has not been de-

oSanstol told Frank Mann upon
his arrival yesterday that the
route must be 10 rounds, because
such a foe as Mack could not be
reached in an eight-round go.
Await Mack'S Handlers
When Mack and his handlers,
Joe Ferguson, Johnny LOTUS and
Eddie Burns arrive here late this
afternoon, the matter will be
thraShed out.
Whether it is an eight or a ten
round battle, the fight fans are
aware that a real pugilistic con-
flict is in store for them. They
have seen both boys go against
stiff opposition and know they
can produce.
Especially are they aware OF
Mack's ability as a warrior OF
the squared circle. He still claims
he was robbed against Eddie
Burl, as do a vast majority OF
the fight clients. Matchmaker
Frank Mann gave him the op-
portunity to prove he was the
ring fighter he vowed he was.
by sticking him in with Billy
Landers three weeks ago. Mack

zard from Norfolk in five rounds
