There is a persistent rumor afloat that the Hartman building at the corner of Olive and Center streets, now nearing completion, is to be a Pacific Electric depot. Whether the party who started the rumor had any foundation for the surmise or whether the idea was merely suggested to him by the unique appearance of the building, we are unable to determine. It is known that the P. E. expects eventually to extend its line from Fullerton to Anaheim, and that it will pass through the city on Olive street and connect with the Southern Pacific at Olive and Santa Ana streets. However C. B. Berger, who will have charge of the Hartman building when it is completed, has stated that the corner room is to be a garage, and this paper will take Mr. Berger's word for it and maintain that it is intended for the finest garage in Orange county.

This will be in the nature of a Christmas present and will provide the growers with surplus cash for the purchase of Christmas presents. "The women and the kiddies as a rule take care of the culls from a grove," said Secretary Burke Monday morning "and the directors felt that the dividend should be declared in advance in order that the women and children might have extra cash with which to do their Christmas shopping." Other dividends from the culls will be declared later. The association sold this year f.o.b destination. Efforts have been on for some time to secure a reduction of 40 cents per hundred pounds to eastern points.

The $632,000 that was distributed among 379 growers identified with the local association, who represent about 4000 acres. Last year the distribution was $395,000 among 341 members.

EASY TO CAPTURE The sergeant wiped the foam from his moustache and set the glass on the bar. "see Haig took 2000 more prisoners today. Beastly bore, they are. I took one once myself—in fact he inflicted himself upon me. "He was not a prisoner to be proud of," the sergeant continued. "When he adopted me I was busy repairing a telephone wire. The bays had just gone over the top and I was struggling with a half yard of adhesive tape and a pair of pliers when something tripped over the wire and said: 'Mercy, I am your prisoner. I submit. I desire to be removed from here.'" "I whirled around and looked it full in the spectacles—it was a very unhappy, small sized Fritz entirely surrounded by clay." "Go away, can't you see I'm busy," I said. "I am your prisoner," he repeated plaintively. "You're a liar," I said severely. "You run away and be someone else's prisoner. You're not the sort of prisoner that appeals to me. Anyway I'm not going to have prisoners thrust upon me. This is my busy day. Get your legs out of that wire." "For a moment he looked nonplussed. Then he dived into a pocket and produced a cheap Swiss watch." "For you," he beamed. "I'm your prisoner." "The man's persistence worried me. It was then I threw the pork and beans can at him. But he only burst into tears. "I told him I couldn't help his troubles. If he choke to be born on the wrong side of a war like this he must take the consequences. And if he kept on weeping on the wire, it might cause a short circuit. The man's persistence finally wore down. So I marched him off to the nearest dressing station." "That was my first and last prisoner." BUSINESS LIKE Sandy Macgregor lived a hundred miles from Aberdeen.

BUSINESS LIKE Sandy Macgregor lived a hundred miles from Aberdeen. He visited London, and on starting his homeward journey found he had lost his pocketbook containing over 25 pounds. So he telegraphed to the London station reporting his loss and stating that the package should be kept until his next journey south a month later. In due time he turned up and the pocketbook was handed to him. The finder, a young porter, stood by expectantly while Sandy carefully counted his money. Then the Scot gazed long and searchingly at the clerk in the inquiry office. "What's the trouble?" asked the clerk anxiously. "Isn't it all right?" "Aye, it's right enough," replied Sandy sternly, "bit whaur's the month's interest?" LARGE DIVIDENDS FROM WALNUT CROP Final Payment Made by Santa Ana Association Monday Members of the Santa Ana Valley Walnut Growers association received $632,000 for their 1917 walnut crop when they received checks Monday in payment of the second pool. This represents receipts only on good nuts that have been gold by the association, and the growers will receive still more from their culls and a possible rebate on freight rates. Gift Problems Are Easily Solved At Falkenstein's DEPARTMENT STORE Anaheim's Greatest Gift Store SUGAR CONTROVERSY in my own mind that a great injustice will be done if the rights of the grow- SUGAR CONTROVERSY That the fight of the sugar beet growers is going to be taken to Washington this week is intimated by men close to District Attorney Woolwine of Los Angeles, who has been one of the hardest fighters in championing the cause of the growers. These men declared that unless a fair settlement is reached Woolwine would ask the Los Angeles county grand jury to indict some sugar factory owners upon a charge of violation of the Cartwright anti-trust law, or he would lay the whole matter before Washington officials. The sugar beet growers in this section have been aching to get the matter to Food Administrator Hoover and other officials at Washington. They declare that the situation is one that involves nation wide influences and conditions. They say that the difference between the cost of sugar production and the cost of sugar to the consumer is far too great to be countenanced. "I am not a member of the Associated Beet Growers," said George Law, a sugar beet grower of Santa Ana, "but I am thoroughly determined in my own mind that a great injustice will be done if the rights of the growers are not properly adjusted at this time. There is no question but that the factories have been making big money, while the growers have been just getting by above expenses, if that. The whole sugar situation ought to be adjusted by the government. Not only should it regulate the price to be paid for beets, but it should put a limit to the profit of sugar companies, so that the consumers are protected." Law declared that the meeting conducted in Los Angeles on Friday by Italph Merritt, state food administrator, gave the sugar growers no real opportunity to present their case. "Of the three hours," said he, "about one hour was taken up by Merritt, and the growers could not present their case in two hours. There was a tense feeling of protest all over that audience."
