Little Repair Work
AT that time it was common
practice for automobile dealers to
farm OUT repair work, as none of
them maintained regular repair de-
partments of their own. While we
did some repair work it was in a
limited way. OF course, today we
maintain complete repair and SER

equipment developed by Ford and
all our mechanics are trained in
Ford schools TO repair work in the
most efficient way to suit the needs
of the cars. We even replace mot
ors in many of used cars with fact
ory re-conditioned motors, which is
the greatest advantage offered to
the used car buyer by the Ford
Motor company. Clutch assemblies
and generators are also installed.

STATE BARBER
CHIEF HERE

If patrons of barber shops
would take the trouble to observe
and report any infractions of the
law to Us, they would not only be
helping uphold the California SAN
itary standards. but they would be
protecting public health and aid
ing the law abiding BARRIERS.
Praises Valley Shops
In travelling about the state we
sometimes get complaints that
barber prices are too high. These
objections must come only from
persons not familiar with the con-
ditions under which the barber op-
crates He cannot solicit business
as the grocer, the drygoods mer-
chant or many others can, but
must depend almost entirely on the
goodwill he can build up by per-
sonal contacts: his overhead has
not been decreased, but on the con-
trary has increased. his hours are
long; he must give top service to
each customer and his work, be-
cause he must stand SO long each
day, is arduous and at times eX-
hausting We have statistics to
prove, for instance, that there is a
loss of nearly three cents for the
barber on each shaving operation.
He makes some of it up on hair
cutting and other facilities of the
shop, but his margin in every in
stance is small.
Il can truthfully say that in the
main Imperial Valleys BARRIERS are
extreme/ faithful in upholding the
standards of the state board. We
have an exception now and then,
but these are to be expected and
we handle them as the law re-
quires US to do"

interesting talker on present day

numerous European countries" he
said. Il have been in California for
nearly 40 years, and I think all
Californians should be proud, as
they have reason to be, of the de-

nardino, and Ben Hulse Of Imperial,

Representatives Of the California
League of municipalities pleaded for
additional funds to relieve the ad

EARL BURNETT
Noted Band With Entertainers
at Virginia Recreational
Building, Oct. "a.

Aside from being the most popular
band of cinemaland during his five
years regime at the smart Biltmore
hotel in Los Angeles, Earl Burtnetts
orchestra enjoys the distinction of
having appeared in more motion pic
ture productions than any other or
chestra. Among the picture produc-
tions were Broadway Melody Gold
Diggers of Broadway" "CoquetteJ'
Putin on the Ritz" Reaching for
the Moon" and "Viennese Nights" =
Burtnett also is popular song writer
numbering among his compositions
"Sing Another Chorus Please" DO You
Ever Think of Me" Leave Me With
a Smile" and "Mandalay.R
Fashions in popular music are just
as distinct and definite as are cycles in
women's modes" ayers BURNETT, who
comes to the Virginia Recreational
building on Thursday, october "a, under
the auspices of Mesaba Lodge No. 22O,
I. o. o. F.
His theory, worked out in close OBJ
servation of the jaSS trend during the
past fifteen years, is that the rotation
of the vogue of ballads, melodic, SYM
phonic, and novelty types of musical
numbers is aptly comparable to the
inevitable swing among the fair sex
towards large or small hats, or short OF
long skirts, whichever way the weather
yane of the fashion may point.
'Of all the cycles of jass music" ne
continues, 'the ballad vogue holds the
public interest the longest inasmuch as
nearly every sentimental ballad regis
tiers ON the public mind because of the
simplicity of its construction, nusically
and lyrically."
BURNETT, who recently concluded
another highly successful engagements
at the famed Lincoln Tavern in Chi
cago and who has been featured over
both NBC and CSB networks, will
present his great array of entertainers
who have been heard on the air with
him when he comes to Virginia. They
include Red Hodgson, Max Williams
and the lovely Harmonettes.
