The Gov ernor acknowledged the greeting from the window. Scores lined the street and autos were parked on both sides during the serenade.
 Returning to their headquarters in Garnick's Store, the bandsmen were soon treated to refreshments dispatched by Gov. Troy and they all returned the compliment by wishing him a long and most suc- cessful administration
 Members of the band appearing at the serenade were Ed Garnick Fred Arnold, J. J. Fargher, Ed Mcintyre, Herman DuMarce, FL mer A. Friend, George Hall, Will liam Baltimore, Ernest Weschen- fielder, Marvin Chase, William R. Vinacke, Robert Art, Che ster Tripp, Dave Burnett and Roy Jack son.

Reported Balance
Only Estimate

Do figures lie? Sometimes, yes.
Or perhaps it is better to say that
they might be misleading, particu-
larly when some important fact con-
nected with them is either over
looked or misunderstood.
This is true regarding story ap-
pearing IN the Fress Wednesday
concerning the report of the coun-
ty auditor. In this story the impress
sion was given that the county is
enjoying great prosperity only to
have it shown conclusively later,
that the much boasted balance in
the general fund was based on an
estimate" and had no real foun-
dation in fact. 1t was pointed out
at the same time that instead Of
having a bank balance, the county
is at present in the well-known
red.

old SCOUT
GOES To FAIR

With tires all pumped up, tank
full of gas (four gallons), and
spring in its heart. "Old Scout
the famous curyed-dash, single
cylinder Oldsmobile, left Lansing
Mich, enroute to Chicago recently
bearing a congratulatory message
from Gov. william Comstock OF
Michigan to Alfred P. Sloan, Jr.,
president of General Motors. The
occasion was the formal dedication
of the General Motors exhibit
building, largest privately built
structure at the Century of Prog
ress Exposition.
The old car was piloted to Chi
cago by Dwight B. Huss, who in
1905 drove it to victory in the first
transcontinental automobile race
ever held in America. That race
started from New York % years
ago this month, and finished A
days later at the Lewis and Clark
exposition in Portland, Ore. Two
years ago Huss, again driving "Old
Scout, retraced his route of for
mer years between New York and
Portland.
Before leaving on his latest
Lansing Chicago drive, Huss esti-
mated that he and Old Scout
had travelled together about $4,000
miles. He made the 218 miles from
Lansing to Chicago in two days
flat with one overnight stop, hit
ting up to % miles per hour on
the straightaways.
Huss resents somewhat the fact
that R. M. w. Shaw, sales man
ager for Oldsmobile, insisted upon
sending with him a new Oldsmo-
bile Straight Eight as a convoy car.
1--WE don't need one of your new
tangled Straight Fights tagging a

Changes in the cit2 milk ordi-
nance which had been suggested
some time ago were again brought
to the attention of the city council
at their regular meeting last night
but no action was taken on the
matter, it being referred to future
meeting for more detailed study.
Earl V. G, Northrup, chief propon-
ent of the proposed change, quoted
many figures to the council to show
that the change ought to be made
and stated very definitely that he
is not interested in the local mar
ket but merely wishes the local
ordinance to be changed SO that
prospective buyers of valley milk
and cream cannot say that produc-
ers outside Of El Centro are unable
to sell their product within that
city.
Walter Macdonald, milk inspector,
stated that the present ordinance
has been effective to the present
and he saw no reason for making
any change until something Off
cial along those lines should come
from Sacramento in the form c. a
new agricultural code, in which
event all present ordinances would
be Of no value.
Northrup also asked the council
for their support in getting federal
aid for the farmers of the valley.
He said that the farm bureau had
sent kilograms to Senators john
son and McAdoo and Congressman
Burnham asking for this relief and
requested that the council do the
same. The city clerk was instruct
ed to draft these kilograms and
send them to Washington,
Percie Thacker appeared before
the council protesting against GER
tain truckers who are operating

orized to detail a special officer

BANK CLEARINGS RISE
SHARPLY DURING WEEK
By the Associated Press.

NEW YORK, July Bank clearings
continue large In volume The total
this week at all leading cities in the
United States, as reported by Dun &
Bradstreet. Inc, of S4,766, ,699, 900 was
26.9 per cent higher than that of a
year ago. At New York City clearings
were $3.460, ,038.000, an increase of AZ. 2
per cent, while the aggregate for centers
outside of New York of $1,3O6 s., 900
was 1.3 per cent lower
The increase at New York City, in
part, measures heavier trading in stocks.
Substantially larger clearings again ap-
pear at Boston, and this week for the
first time at Pittsburgh. Larger totals
are also reported by st. Louis, Kansas
City, Minneapolis, Omaha, Atlanta,
Dallas, Louisville, San Francisco,
Portland and Seattle. Slight reductions
at Philadelphia, Chicago and some other
cities are without special significance.
Clearings are now s761, $4,000 below
the heavy total Of last week, but year
ago the decline was 1895 1913 900. The
more favorable showing this week is due
largely to the heavier amount at New
York City.

increases and decreases compared with
those OF last year, are printed herewith:
