That "Tailored Look" In Men's Shoes If you demand something more than "just shoes"—if you are satisfied only with the maximum in comfort, fit and appearance, then Walkovers are sure to meet your every requirement. The models are exclusive with us, we have the sole agency, we have plenty of styles to choose from. Gun Metal button or lace $5.00 Gun Metal lace, English toe 6.00 Kid, in wide, medium and narrow toe 6.50 Tony Brown, a rich new shade at 6.50 Cherry Tan Galf, English toe at 8.50 All Walkovers The S.Q.R. Store Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Otto Rust visit- ALL WALKOVERS The S.Q.R. Store LOCAL NOTES Articles of incorporation were filed Friday by the Anaheim Orange and Citrus association. The capital stock is $50,000. The directors are C. E. Holcomb, A. G. Langenberger, George Rebman, R. M. Moore, and William Welchman, all of Anaheim, and J. M. Callan and A. G. Miller, both of Fullerton. J. E. La Plant of Santa Ana was given five years probation after he had pleaded guilty to giving a bad check in Anaheim and after he had promised to let liquor alone. In fact, one of the most specific directions for his behavior is that he does not drink. Joe Hatfield has received a letter from his son, Sergt. Floyd Hatfield, dated July 2, in which he stated that he was in camp near New York and expected to start across immediately. Captain Lee Hatfield writes that he has been transferred to Camp Hancock, Georgia. Eight hours of strenuous training per day at Camp Lewis will probably reduce the waist line of Pete Wisser and Earl Steadman, but they will no doubt prove excellent soldiers when they are in physical condition. Ben Birenbaum is preparing to harvest his popcorn crop, which owing to climatic conditions did not turn out as good as expected. However, Ben says he will get quite a haul and will try it again next season, if Mr. Hoover insists. Mrs. Fletcher of the Central apartments has received word from her son, Robert Gregg, who was on the cruiser San Diego when it was sunk off Fire Island, that he had been carried safely to port. Gregg enlisted in the navy in March, 1917, and is now a petty officer, first class. Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Otto Rust visited at Balboa on Sunday, driving down in Mr. Rust's new Cadillac. It is said a ship building yard is to be established at Balboa. Motor Cop Minyard has tagged a number of autos for traffic violations and intends to tag a whole lot more in order to get them to obey the laws. These offenders are brought before the recorder who does the rest, which is usually a five dollar fine as a gentle reminder, for first offense. A number of persons persist in driving on the wrong side of the street, which is dangerous, not only to themselves but to others. Speeding on crowded streets is menacing and Minyard is doing all he can to stop the practice. Cutting corners is dangerous and the wrong parking of autos causes considerable trouble. Motor Cop Minyard has warned several local residents about these infractions, but hereafter they will have to tell their troubles to the judge. Joe Hessel has been hearing some early Anaheim history from his old-time friend Charley Luedke, who has lived here since Anaheim was a small pueblo. Joe has been hearing some "hair raisers," which included some of the incidents which happened when the semi-civilized Indians came from the Pala reservation to pick grapes. Were some of those thrills to be pulled off now a call would be sent in for the regulars, but in the early days the ploneers passed them up with but a passing notice. Joel has commenced to think this used to be a wild and woolly country, according to Charley's versions of by-gone days, and often wonders how the natives saved their scalps when the settlement was overrun by these roaming savages. Two Los Angeles men are in jail at Santa Ana with a multiplicity of charges against them. They are accused of selling shoulders as "hams", of using overweight scales and peddling without a license. The men... Mrs. Fletcher of the Central apartments has received word from her son, Robert Gregg, who was on the cruiser San Diego when it was sunk off Fire Island, that he had been carried safely to port. Gregg enlisted in the navy in March, 1917, and is now a petty officer, first class. Fred Manske died at the home of his daughter, Mrs. P. Frahm Saturday morning, at the age of 84. Funeral was held at Back & Terry's parlors Monday afternoon, Rev. H. G. Schmelzer conducting the services. The remains were sent east for burial. In rendering judgment in favor of Mrs. Lillian Emmet Berns of Delhi, giving her a divorce from Bernard S. Berns of Anaheim, Judge West made it very plain that he was convinced that there was enough perjury committed during the trial to send a good many people to prison if it was all proven and divided up among a good many people. While granting a divorce to Mrs. Berns and placing title of the property which she owned before she married Berns, in Mrs. Berns Judge West advised Bob Scott, who was one of the stumbling blocks in the affairs of the Berns family, to get out of the county. For the purpose of raising an ambulance fund the Orange Union High school auctioned off a box of oranges, realizing $176 for the same. The oranges were returned to the school and shipped to President Wilson. Two Los Angeles men are in jail at Santa Ana with a multiplicity of charges against them. They are accused of selling shoulders as "hams", of using overweight scales and peddling without a license. The men; Fred Epps and Clifford Hill, represented that they lived in Downey, their father sugar cured the "hams" and that they thus were able to sell cheaper than local stores. It is charged they thus induced sales at 39 cents a pound, when the local retail price of "plenic hams" is 30 cents. Both men were fined $5 for peddling without a license. Epps pleaded guilty to using untested scales. Both pleaded not guilty to selling underweight meat. Six hundred bottles of beer, confiscated by the sheriffs' officers in dry territory, were given to the Red Cross last week. That is the beer was dumped into the gutter and the empties given to the society. It looks to us like the Red Cross was defrauded of $102 by the law which compels the sheriff to destroy all beverages of an exhilirating nature coming into his hands by confiscation. Full these bottles were worth $120 on the market and no doubt would have brought a premium in thirsty Santa Ana. Empty they netted only $18. Moreover if the contents must be destroyed why not the bottles. They can be used for nothing but beer, and will return from the brewery some day full again. Mrs. David Todd C David Jr., came in Friday last week on a w Mrs. J. L. Van der Mor went east with cently and remained wailed for France, w ing as chaplain in th H. G.

The roar of the great guns at Fort McArthur, San Pedro, thirty two miles away, Monday sounded like distant thunder in Anaheim, causing windows to rattle and houses to shiver slightly. Ten shots were fired at intervals of half an hour. The shells were loaded with sand instead of explosives. The object of the firing was to test the new 14 inch guns. It is reported that no defects were found in the guns. Mrs. H. L. Wortman received a telegram Tuesday from her son, Wayne, stating that he was leaving for France.

Of the hundreds of natives of Mexico in this county, the number who have asked for citizenship in this country could be counted on the fingers of one hand, and the thumb and possibly one or two fingers would not be needed in the county.
