The second Sunday in May has been set apart for several years past as the one day in each year to honor the wonderful women who have achieved the greatest pinnacle of a woman's life, motherhood. Grown men and women will recall tomorrow, the days when they were being watched and nourished and tenderly cared for by their Mothers, the days when they were not yet "out of the nest," so to speak. Honoring Mothers tomorrow is a meritorious affair, for there is no one group of people more responsible for the growth and development of this great nation than the Mothers. They have provided sons to operate this great nation and they have given the lives of their sons to defend it from invasion and to uphold its honor. Before another year passes, may it be said that the men of America have honored the Mothers by bringing about the first real step toward world peace, in leading the world in a gigantic drive against armament. Mothers fearlessly and with a heart full of love face the gateway of Eternity to give life. Let us hope that before Mother's day comes next year, SHOW OF BABES WILL BE BIG FEATURE Mothers of the County Will Have Opportunity To Show Little Ones GOOD COMMITTEES What it is declared will be the most elaborate and complete Baby Welfare Exhibit and Baby Show contest ever given in Orange county will be held in connection with the Valencia Orange show. The directors have appointed a strong committee of influential women to take complete charge of this part of the show and the different committees have the work so well in hand that they feel no detail has been omitted and that their many tent will be a strong rival for honors with the main orange exhibit. The tent will face on Los Angeles street, just south of the large tent, and will be 60x100 feet, and will contain Before another year passes, may it be said that the men of America have honored the Mothers by bringing about the first real step toward world peace, in leading the world in a gigantic drive against armament. Mothers fearlessly and with a heart full of love face the gateway of Eternity to give life. Let us hope that before Mother's day comes next year, the great plan for world disarmament will be under way so that the Mothers of America will not have offered their lives in vain. IN A BAD FIX; TWO WRONGS. The Chicago boy who ran away with nearly a million dollars worth of bonds entrusted to him by the banking institution employing him is caused no end of worry. He was captured a few days after he disappeared, and two men who identified him and turned him to the authorities with the bonds, were paid $18,000 reckoned. The boy was tried in Chicago a few days ago and the jury disagreed. The jury did not try the boy alone apparently. They also tried the bank, for there was no denial from the defense. It was a question as to whether or not the bank was as liable as the boy in that it tempted the lad when it sent him out unaccompanied with a large amount of valuable paper. Judge Landis, before whom the boy was arraigned soon after the arrest, declared that the bank was criminally as liable as the boy, for it had subjected him to violent death by being attacked by thugs. The jury probably disagreed because some of the men on it believed the boy has suffered enough, and they probably feel that the bank should charge up the $18,000 paid in rewards to experience, from which it and all banking institutions will profit. Juries sometimes resolve themselves into pardoning boards, and sometimes it is well that they do. STIRRING TROUBLE; PERIOD NOT HERE. A delegation of negroes yesterday called on President Harding and asked that the rule of keeping whites and pointed a strong committee of influential women to take complete charge of this part of the show and the different committees have the work so well in hand that they feel no detail has been omitted and that their bany tent will be a strong rival for honors with the main orange exhibit. The tent will face on Los Angeles street, just south of the large tent, and will be 60x100 feet, and will contain such features as the following: Rest room for tired women and children, child nursery, where mothers can leave their children while they enjoy the sights of the snow and grounds, Red Cross exhibits, dental hygiene, and salvage shop, showing the reconstruction work from old garments. Then there will be a sand pile for the kiddies, a full line of exhibits by the merchants will show all manner of things pertaining to child life, including baby clothes, of all kinds and styles, nursing and equipment, food, bath materials and toys. Nurses will be present to explain the proper and improper methods of caring for children and to assist in the supervision of the nursery. Free literature will be distributed, sent by the Government Child Welfare department, and posters demonstrating much of child life will be on display. Prizes for Babies In addition, and perhaps the main item of interest, will be the baby judging contest, open to all children under five years of age. Prizes for different ages have been donated by the local merchants. Physicians will be in attendance and the most modern methods of judging children will be followed. Adequate facilities for the sanitary and proper care of children during examinations have been made. Coupons in the daily papers should be clipped nad filled in by the mothers wishing to enter any child and forwarded to the Chamber of Commerce of Anaheim, in care of Dr. Bessica F. Raiche, who will classify the babies and send a reply to each mother, giving her a date and hour to bring her baby in for examination. This will help to avoid confusion and congestion. Be sure and look for the coupon and send them in at once. Another feature which will be a real attraction will be the programs given daily in the baby tent. Speakers Monday noon, From this city will be held dozen soil experts, trade newspapers with Los Angeles and other California to county orange groves fertilized in the past with decomposed m bone lime, known a distributed exclusive.

A delegation of negroes yesterday called on President Harding and asked that the rule of keeping whites and negroes apart in the government's executive departments be abolished. The delegation also asked that the government exercise its powers against lynching, peonage, restriction of negro suffrage and Jim Crow regulations. The negroes have much to learn. The first thing they must learn is that their salvation is in their own hands. When negroes aspire to higher ideals and a higher grade of civilization, they may find life more glorious. It is very true that negroes are mistreated by some. White people are also mistreated. The race problem is still one of the failures of civilization and the white people alone cannot work out the destiny of the negro. No one has yet discovered how to mix oil and water. The time may come when someone will mix oil and water, and it is reasonable to believe that by that time, the negro may have found a way to be content. We of this generation cannot do anything more than advise the negro race to work out its own happiness and welfare by improving mental, physical and moral standards. Thomas A. Edison is said to have remarked that college men are "amazingly ignorant." Edison has been too busy perhaps to notice it before. Read the letter to the Herald on this page under the heading of "Opinions." It gives food for thought. Another feature which will be a real attraction will be the programs given daily in the baby tent. Speakers and kindergarten workers representing every phase of child life, will be on the program, and in addition the children will take an active part themselves. The mothers while resting during the afternoon are especially invited to these programs—there will be seats for all. Admission to tent and baby contest is absolutely free.

ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA, SATURDAY, MAY 7, 1921 FORTUNE IS GIVEN IN WILL BECAUSE OF KINDNESSES LOS. ANGELES, May 7.—Half a million dollars for kindness. Mrs. Mary E. Higgins, wife of a traveling salesman, was bequeathed that amount in the will of John M. Gilbert, on file for probate here today. Gilbert, an elderly widower who amassed a fortune of $750,000 as real estate dealer in Buffalo, New York, died Wednesday night in the Angelus hotel. Describing Mrs. Higgins as "my esteemed friend," he made her beneficiary to the bulk of his estate "as a remembrance for many and gratefully appreciated kindnesses, care and services to me for many years." Gilbert's last request in the will is his body be cremated and the "ashes scattered to the winds without ceremony." SCIENTISTS WILL VISIT MCNAMARA IS TO LEAVE PRIGON Fifteen Year Term of L. A.

On that day, his sentence will be completed. "The first thing I'll do when I get out of here will be to go to San Francisco, see my friends and make arrangements to go to Ohio to visit the various members of my family who live in Cleveland and Cincinnati," he stated in an exclusive interview with the United Press today. ELEVEN YEAR OLD BOY STARTS ON NEW TRAVELS Willis Heim, 11 years old, an Anaheim boy, left home yesterday morning pushing a two-wheel cart and followed by his pet dog, according to a report telephoned to Sheriff C. E. Jackson. No report of the boy had been received by the sheriff's office up to noon today, although officers in this county and in the beach counties have been asked to watch for him. It is believed Willis has headed for one of the beach resorts and that he will be found in one of them today or tomorrow. When he left home, Willis wore a stocking cap, brown corduroy coat and knee pants. His hair is read and his eyes blue. WALLING FORD BUSY AGAIN IS CHARGE Scientists Will Visit Groves Group of Soil Experts and Agriculturists Inspect Orange Co. Soil GUESTS OF MR. SEXTON Monday noon, Fred L. Sexton, of this city will be host to about two dozen soil experts, agriculturists and trade newspapers who will come from Los Angeles and other parts of Southern California to inspect Orange county orange groves that have been fertilized in the past fifteen months with decomposed marine shell and bone lime, known as D. M. S., and distributed exclusively by Mr. Sexton. In this party will be Dr. Snowden, perhaps the greatest soil expert in the country, also Dr. Charles Lincoln Edwards and Roland C. Ross, in charge of the nature study department of Los Angeles county schools. The action of D. M. S. on the soil in groves to be visited will be pointed out to the party Monday afternoon. The group or men interested will lunch at noon and then drive to the various groves where D. M. S. lime has been used. Mr. Sexton invites all growers and others interested in the matter to accompany the party. Besides Dr. Edwards, Dr. Snowden, Mr. Ross, guests of Mr. Sexton will be Prof. C. C. Mishler, professor of fiscus agronomy; Prof. Charles C. Vernon, professor of agriology; Dr. J. P. del'Eau, doctor of agrostology; Dr. George C. Clements, manager of agriculture, Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce; N. L. Chapin, editor of Rural World; C. M. Messenger, editor of California Cultivator; J. C. Knolllin, editor Orchard and Farm; Prof. Donald J. Dickey, professor of vertebrae zoology, Southwestern University; Dr. Milbank Johnson, Dr. S. O. Barnes, grower of drug specialties; Mr. Brown; J. H. Yetter, representative of California Cultivator; S. Maus Purple, general manager of the plant and of the San Quentin prison for the last time. On that day, his sentence will be completed. "The first thing I'll do when I get out of here will be to go to San Francisco, see my friends and make arrangements to go to Ohio to visit the various members of my family who live in Cleveland and Cincinnati," he stated in an exclusive interview with the United Press today. "Then comes the problem of readjustment after being out of the world for ten years. At the time of my trial I was international secretary of the Bridge and Structural Iron Workers' Union. I am still a member of the union and in good standing. "That I will continue with that work is quite probable, though that is necessarily dependent on what conditions are as I find them on my release: I have managed to keep more or less abreast of the times during my imprisonment, but I fear I won't know how to act when I step off the ferry in San Francisco. "Though I have been out of the world for ten years I think I'm still a man capable of taking care of myself." There was a pause. "And will you be glad to get out?" he asked. "That's what has been keeping me alive—thinking of the day when I would again become a free man—able to go my own way," the man in prison grey replied. "One hears so much—and so little—of what is going on outside that, after an active life, a prison term is almost an intellectual death," he added. "We hear so much now of wars and rumors of wars that it is almost appalling to think of facing the age-old conflict of man and his brother. With labor troubles paramount in this country, disputes tearing Europe, strife is the keynote of the world re-frain." His brother James McNamara was sentenced to life imprisonment for his connection with the same case. He will not be pardoned, nor can any reduction in his imprisonment be granted on account of good behavior, it was stated by Warden James J. Johnston. In December, 1911, John pleaded guilty to conspiracy in the dynamiting of the Llewellyn iron works and his brother entered a like plea to a murder charge. For the past two years the McNa- read and his eyes blue. WALLING FORD BUSY AGAIN IS CHARGE Anaheim Man Charges Los Angeles Man Embezzled Big Sum of Money PLAYED SLICK GAME An alleged "Get-Rich-Quick Wallingford" was unearthed in the district attorney's office in Santa Ana when Milton MacMillan of Anaheim swore out an embezzlement complaint against J. W. O'Day of Los Angeles. O'Day is charged with unlawfully taking $500 belonging to MacMillan. According to MacMillan's claim, O'Day suggested the taking up of some mining land west of El Toro, O'Day claimed, it is said, that he could secure a patent from the government for the land. It is alleged that $660 was collected to pay for the necessary steps in procuring the property. O'Day declared MacMillan, told James Hunter, a Los Angeles tailor, that he could get the land for him (Hunter) and is said to have made claims to Hunter that the land was a good oil property. Hunter is said to have paid O'Day $660 for title to the land. O'Day's next step, says the complaint, was to tell MacMillan that Hunter had a claim on the land, that O'Day had not previously been aware of, and that $500 was needed to buy the interest. The complaint charges that O'Day appropriated the entire amount $1160. According to Deputy District Attorney C. N. Mozely, another complaint will be issued Monday against O'Day on the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses.

In December, 1911, John pleaded guilty to conspiracy in the dynamiting of the Llewellyn iron works and his brother entered a like plea to a murder charge. For the past two years the McNamara brothers have been working in the bookbindry at San Quentin. They served an "apprenticeship" in the jute mills, when they first gave up their names for numbers. David Caplan and Mathew Schmidt, also connected with the case were convicted and sentenced to life imprisonment for having purchased the dynamite used in blowing up the Los Angeles Times. GENEROUS RAINS MAKE EVERYONE REJOICE IN SOU. CAL. Everybody's happy today. After two days of rain which was general over Southern California and gratefully received by all growers, the sun opened up for business a few minutes after 5:30 this morning and promises to stay on the job all day. The sun was supposed to get up at 5:27 this morning, but for some reason it was delayed or else the Herald's weather bureau's watch is in a hurry. The storm that hit this section Thursday left .92 inches of rain up to 7 o'clock Friday morning, according to the rain gauge at the factory of the Anaheim Sugar company. During yesterday an additional amount of sky juice brought the storm's total up to 1.33 inches, an amount that brings the season's total more nearly normal. O'Days next step says the complaint, was to tell MacMillan that Hunter had a claim on the land, that O'Day had not previously been aware of, and that $500 was needed to buy the interest. The complaint charges that O'Day appropriated the entire amount $1160. According to Deputy District Attorney C. N. Mozely, another complaint will be issued Monday against O'Day on the charge of obtaining money under false pretenses. "MISS VALENCIA" IS BEING PREPARED BY ELIASON Producer Joseph A.

Amack, Anaheim chiropractor who was convicted of practicing a mode of healing without a license from the state medical board was sentenced this morning to 90 days in the county jail. Miss Amack was given the sentence of $100 fine or a 90-day jail term. Judge Williams told her that the jail sentence would be suspended if the fine is paid. Previous to the sentence, Lou B. Guernsey, attorney for Miss Amack, made a plea for leniency, stating that the offense was only a technical one and suggested probation. Judge Williams declared that in his opinion Miss Amack could easily pay the fine, but declared that if she wished to go to jail as a matter of principle, he had nothing to do with it. When told that she would be given five days in which to make up her mind, Miss Amack declared that her mind was already made up. She will start her jail sentence next Thursday. MOTHER'S DAY TO BE OBSERVED IN CITY CHURCHES Tomorrow is the day all people of Anaheim observe as Mother's Day. It is the one day of the year in which the "Mother" is first in the minds of all. In the church in Anaheim services in honor of the Mother will be observed. The German five churches will have special song service followed by addresses in honor of "Mother." CANTON, China, May 7.—Sun Yat Sen, president of the Canton, Chinese government today outlined his proposed policies in an exclusive interview with the United Press. It was the first interview he has ever given. "My first move after my inauguration on Thursday," he said, "will be to seek foreign recognition. "As a legally constituted parliament, my administration hopes to show the powers I am not a rebel, but that Hau Shin Chang, whose presidency is illegal, is the rebel. "The second move will be the unification of China on a plan of local autonomy similar to that in force in America, giving far greater power to the communities. "I will abolish military governorship and re-establish civil authority and will reduce to a minimum the army, which is now considerably over one million. I will modernize China and start the building of railroads. I will restore China's position by denouncing Japan's twenty-one demands which are the backbone of her policy. China's trouble during the last four years has been directly due to the Japanese militarists, who aim to 'Korealize' China. "America has aided Japan by recognizing Hsu (head of the Pekin government), which is opposed to the Canton government) whom Japan put in office, but America did not know. "We desire proper foreign aid and favor a consortium, but money loaned to Pekin will injure instead of help, for Pekin is powerless in the hands of the militarists. "The province of Kwangal now is mobilizing against Canton. They have about 50,000 troops. This being others: He will denounce the famous "twenty-one demands" of Japan; which were granted by China and which are declared to give Japan a stronghold on China. He will seek immediate recognition for his government. He hopes to build a republic on the lines of the United States. He blames America for recog-nizing the government of Hau Shin Chang at Pekin. Expresses a desire for foreign aid." Tomorrow is the day all people of Anaheim observe as Mother's Day. It is the one day of the year in which the "Mother" is first in the minds of all. In the church in Anaheim services in honor of the Mother will be observed. The German five churches will have special song service followed by addresses in honor of "Mother." Rev. Loren Howe of the Christian church announces that the Sunday school service will be "Mother" and the music for the day will be of the same nature. His sermon of the evening will be "My Mother." Mother's Day will be observed at the Presbyterian church also. The memory of Mother will be celebrated with song and service by the different organizations in the church. St. Michael's Sunday school will observe Mother's Day in their service at 9:45. Every child not affiliated with any other Sunday school is cordially invited to attend tomorrow and hear what mother should mean to them. Rev. James Allen Geissinger of the Methodist White Temple in his addresses both morning and evening will refer to Mother. The chorus choir will accompany Miss Evans and Robert Brown in the duet, "My Mother." Wade Westlake, tenor singer, will render "Little Mother O'Mine," by Burleigh. "My Mother's Bible," an old time song and a favorite of many, will be sung, and Mrs. Evelyn Dunham Kneel will sing "Tell Mother I'll Be There," by Fillmore. Every person in attendance at the service will receive a white flower as a token of Mother's Day. The Evangelical Association will also observe this special day with the memory of Mother in the sermon and song. John Bull must choose between the olive branch and the ambush.

"The province of Kwangal now is mobilizing against Canton. They have about 50,000 troops. This being the only section now striking against me, we hope to withstand the shock." "Our immediate need is foreign recognition. With this prestige the other provinces would rally around my government."
