Miss Dorothy Garrison rendered a piona solo showing her FEDERATION MET IN ANAHEIM SATURDAY ORANGE COUNTY PARENT TEACHERS' ASSOCIATION HAS INTERESTING SESSION AT LOARA MANY INSTRUCTIVE ADDRESSES MADE BY MEMBERS FROM ALB SECTIONS OF COUNTY The Orange County Federation of Parent Teachers' Associations held one of the most interesting meetings here Saturday, that has been conducted since its organization. The enthusiastic meetings was held in the Loara school building at West Anaheim, the Loara Parent Teachers' Association having entertained their guests in a royal manner. After the opening prayer, Mrs. G. H. Goodale, president of the Loara Association, extended words of welcome to the visiting members, this welcoming address being responded to by Mrs. Walter Tedford, of Santa Ana, Mrs. T. A. Winbigler was to have responded but had not yet arrived. The reading of the minutes of the October meeting held at Santa Ana, showed that many live subjects, such as school savings banks, school laws, use of school buildings as civic centers, have been brought to the careful attention of the federation and will be taken up more fully as time passes on. The matter of dues was explained for the benefit of any who were now in the work. When an association becomes a member of both the state congress and the Orange county federation, 5 cents of the state dues may be retained for the county federation treasury. This is according to the state constitution. The last few minutes of the fore-noon session were devoted to giving "outlooks" from the individual associations, Anaheim grammar school being represented by the president, Mrs. Vanderveer, Prof. Hauck followed, speaking for the high school association. He gave a general invitation to all to hear Dr. Williams of Pomona college, who will give an address on January 25th at the high school building. Fullerton was represented by Mrs. Coleman. At 12 o'clock a basket lunch was enjoyed. At the afternoon session reports were resumed, giving much valuable information and suggestions especially name as a candidate for county president in favor of Mrs. Whitney, of Santa Ana, supervisor of primary and kindergarten for the city of Santa Ana. A short program of lighter character followed. Miss Dorothy Garrison rendered a piona solo showing her ability as a fine young performer. Miss Kathryn Hand gave a reading which delighted the audience. Miss Powers sang most sweetly. The feature among the speakers was the address by Miss Gertrude Longnecker of San Diego. She said in part: "That home is losing its grip to a certain extent on the child with respect to vocational work, as so many industries have been removed from the home to factories. It has devolved upon the school to take up these problems and work them out. There is play, there is parenthood, and there is co-operation in a social way." She quoted from H. G. Wells, the influences of his boyhood which developed his life. This 20th century is so full of complexity that it is disastrous to let the boy or the girl go out into life unprepared. The old attitude toward play was that it was a sin. The school has said "thou shalt not." Society ought to be fighting red-light districts and low pool rooms by providing open air sports of all kinds. Wholesome ways of spending leisure time. Whenever schools learn to use their buildings the year through instead of closing them in evenings and through vacation, the problem of social amusement will be partly solved. Build less club houses and equip schools better. The obligation of service has become more realized by parents. You and I are our brother's keepers. "The new education must look to the needs of the community in which the school is located and to the needs of each child. There are four main activities of the average man and woman: 1. Work, the earning of a living; 2. play, the use of leisure time wholesomely for building up physical vitality; 3. parenthood with all the activities connected with family life; 4. cooperation of people in groups outside of the home, in social, political and religious ways. The new education must try to work out these four interests from the two standpoints of community need and individual needs. To consider in detail the problem of earning a living and the obligation of the school to fit its children for their life work. The curriculum of the old education emphasized book education and neglected hand training. Yet 93 per cent of the world's work depends on hand skill. The old education sacrificed 93 per cent of its students in order to give the other 7 per cent the training that prepares for college and the professions."

At 12 o'clock a basket lunch was enjoyed. At the afternoon session reports were resumed, giving much valuable information and suggestions especially from the Santa Ana high school association. Mrs. W. B. Tedford, of Santa Ana, gave a most interesting report for the Spanish school, a new feature in that city. The children of the Mexican population are being not only taught from books but general civilization such as hand work, mending, cooking, and general utility knowledge. Some of the products made by the pupils are sold and the money used for the needs of the needy ones. Laundry work is taught as well as the need for personal cleanliness. The nine associations of Santa Ana all responded which showed that live subjects are being brought before the parents. The Orangethorpe association reported a bazaar as the result of three thimble parties held during vacation. Much social spirit prevails in this organization. The report from the Roosevelt school, Santa Ana, spoke of the Spanish school, how the girls are being trained for domestic service in the future and the work done in the school building by the Spanish boys. Spurgeon school, Mrs. Darnell president, spoke of the splendid meetings, father's meetings and the fine talk given by Prof. Cranston and Prof. Atwood. To meet the ever present demand for money which every organization needs some time, they will hold an old-fashioned spelling match and box social in the near future. Pictures are being purchased for the kindergarten and primary rooms. At this time a committee was appointed to arrange a list of accredited speakers for the county, the members being Mrs. G. H. Goodale, chairman, Prof. Hauck and Mrs. Vanderveer, assistants. Mrs. Darnell then withdrew her To consider in detail the problem of earning a living and the obligation of the school to fit its children for their life work.

FORD COMPANY ADOPT'S NEW SYSTEM Announcement is made by the Ford Motor Company of Detroit, of a profit-sharing plan by which $10,000,000—approximately half the earnings of the giant concern—will be distributed annually to its employees. At the same time, it was announced that the working day for the men would be cut one hour, making an eight-hour day, with no decrease in pay, and that 4,000 new employees would be added to the company's working force immediately, making a total of 22,000 men affected. The distribution of the surplus will start in one week. Under the terms of the plan the company announced no employee of 22 or over will receive less than $5 for an eight-hour day even though he be merely a floor sweeper. The minimum wage for employees is now $4.34 for a nine-hour day. In connection with the lunching of the profit-sharing plan, the Ford Company has organized a sociological department which will keep close watch on the manner of living of all employees, and those found to be using their extra money in any improper manner will immediately cease to be beneficiaries under the plan. "Henry Ford is the originator of the plan," said Secretary Cousens. He believes there has been too wide a division between capital and labor and that labor has not shared to the extent it should. The profit-sharing plan is not to be looked upon as an increase in wages. It is merely a plan whereby the employees of the company will share in what the plant and its branches produce. We believe it will materially improve the standard of our employees."—Christian Science Monitor, Boston. meeting of the Board of Californians called for Thursday night to final arrangement was to be Messrs. Brizzolari, Barnes failed to appear and they through. All hope of an factory was abandoned by Mr. Brizzolari assured them there was nothing to do. "It is true Anaheim has factory. The city has no overtures to the company there, and as published in over a month ago a leading guarantee a subscription to the stock and offered at the free use of the factory important concessions were city and strong efforts we induce the agents and that change their decision.

"While Anaheim will not get the factory some stock in the enterprise has been subscribed there, also several subscriptions were made by Fullerton railroads to carry these people in free of charge and furnish a free drink, a hot tamale, and a cigar all free, at the expense of the railroad. This class they said was generally represented by the Board of Trade. On being asked by your representative who represented the other possible 6,000 in the AUTO FACTORY WILL NOT COME TO ANAHEIM PROPOSITION OF BOARD OF TRADE REJECTED BY PROMOTERS OF THE CONCERN HERE FLIRTING WITH ANAHEIM FOR PURPOSE OF MAKING OTHERS JEALOUS Promoters and officers of the Hyraulic Truck Company who a couple weeks ago were in Anaheim enforcing to secure sufficient capital from local people for the establishment of a plant for the manufacture of their auto trucks, evidently got cold set. At least they failed to appear at the special meeting of the board last Thursday night which was called part for the purpose of further discussion of the matter with a view to reaching an agreement and get speedy action on the location of the plant. Messrs. Brizzolari, Barnes and Innis met with the Board of Trade on the previous Monday night and presented a proposition. The company was incorporated under the laws of California with a legalized capital of 14,000,000. Only one-tenth of this was necessary to establish the plant and begin the manufacture of the cars, two of which had already been constructed, tested and found without reproach. One was demonstrated on the streets of Anaheim and proved to be all the promoters claimed for it. The promoters asked the board to raise $25,000 of the $100,000 needed to be other $75,000 to be raised by themselves outside of the city. This $25,000 was to be put in the hands of a trustee and was to be available only when the balance of the hundred thousand was deposited with the trustee. A special meeting of the Board of Trade was called for Thursday night at which a final arrangement was to be made, but Messrs. Brizzolari, Barnes and Innisailed to appear and the project fell through. All hope of an auto truck factory was abandoned by the board. The company already had an establishment at Colton and the following from one of the newspapers of that city sheds some light on the subject: "Wm. Brizzolari, fiscal agent of the Hydraulic Motor Truck Co., returned to Colton this morning and was interviewed about the persistent rumors and publications to the effect that the truck factory would be built in Anaheim." they are the contract will be let. This was the assurance of Mr. Brizzolari today. "While Anaheim will not get the factory some stock in the enterprise has been subscribed there, also several subscriptions were made by Fullerton subscriptions were made by Fullerton merits of the truck and the method of driving it. It is well known that the demand and need for motor trucks is very large and that today factories are behind in their orders. The business of manufacturing them is large and very lucrative, and therefore there is no trouble in enlisting the support of enterprising men who have money to invest in profitable manufacturing enterprises. It is expected that while the Colton factory will not be a large plant at first that in a year or less it will double its starting capacity and in time will become the leading industry of that kind in the south. Here is where there will be the greatest demand for the trucks, and particularly is this hydraulic truck desirable and sought after for mining districts. Its capacity for handling great loads of ore where roads are poor or there are none has been amply proven and mining men are more than pleased with it." BOARD OF TRADE HEARS REPORT (Continued from page 1.) people in so that they could not get out, so that they might rob them and, this class was represented by the Merchants' Association. The other class was the real estate men and these wanted to bring the people in so that they, the real estate men, could rob them. Moreover, they wanted the railroads to carry these people in free of charge and furnish a free drink, a hot tamale, and a cigar all free, at the expense of the railroad. This class they said was generally represented by the Board of Trade. On being asked by your representative who represented the other possible 6,000 in the Anaheim township, the attorney replied these were represented by the railroad commission. A vigorous protest was entered to the charges and innuendos and the following put into the records of the case: "That the Anaheim Board of Trade represented every body in and about Anaheim and that no one was barred; that for every dollar invested in Anaheim full value was given; that the Board of Trade was not asking for free transportation but was only asking for a just and reasonable fare with no discrimination. One railroad attorney said that the Redlands $3 round-trip was put in to build up Redlands. Your representative asked why Redlands should be "built up" and not Anaheim? and protested against this discrimination. Also alleged that the Southern Pacific was discriminating, through the Pacific Electric, against Anaheim as against points touched by the electric lines, this on the ground that the Southern Pacific was half owner in these lines. This was vigorously opposed by the Southern Pacific attorney and the commissioner at first thought such a point could not be maintained but later thought it might be well to look into the matter and so let it go into the record of the case. The case is now before the commission for decision. A. A. MILLS. With reference to the site for an ice plant J. H.
