ORANGE COUNTY GETS SEVERAL RIBBONS FEATURE DISPLAY WINS SECOND PRIZE AT NATIONAL ORANGE SHOW, SAN BERDOO COUNTY ALSO WINS FIRST FOR NUMBER AND VARIETY OF FRUITS EXHIBITED Orange county did not win all the best prizes at the National Orange show which is running this week at San Bernardino, but it captured its share of ribbons, and the men who devoted their time and talents to constructing the display were well satisfied with the awards. A year ago this county was given first prize for feature display, therefore Mr. Bradford and his co-workers considered themselves out of the running this year. However they were given the secondmuneration being his expenses, but he was working for Anaheim. He never has much to say, but he is always on the job when there is anything to be done, and he takes keen delight in being of service to the county and helping boost it. Without being on the committee he worked as a committeeman should work. His name is F. K. Gresswell. He worked until the work was completed, but declares all credit for the Orange county exhibit is due Chairman Bradford, who was the engineer and constructor, and who thoroughly understands the game. FULLERTON MEETS BEACH CHAMPIONS Semi-Final Mingle In Fight For Southern California Championship The Fullerton high school football club will meet Santa Monica, winner of the bay section title, at Fullerton on next Saturday afternoon in the semi-final game for the Southern California championship. Santa Monica defeated Inglewood on Saturday by a score of 21 to 7. Coach Culp and a bunch of his huskies witnessed the game, and it is realized that Fullerton must go strong in order to beat the beach eleven. BUDGET OF NESS BY BODY CITY COUNCILMENT THURSDAY NIGHT MONTHLY MEETING FINE GIVE GLAD HAND TO ROCKWELL, STONY TO ALEXANDER The city trustees took principal business affairs night with swim and all give a good account of The councilmen give freely to the city without the only remuneration that the fun they get out of it have their eyes open forancement and are trying best they can even if flunked. All the members Orange county did not win all the best prizes at the National Orange show which is running this week at San Bernardino, but it captured its share of ribbons, and the men who devoted their time and talents to constructing the display were well satisfied with the awards. A year ago this county was given first prize for feature display, therefore Mr. Bradford and his co-workers considered themselves out of the running this year. However they were given the second prize, the Riverside chamber of commerce, with its beautiful "Garden of the Allies," winning first. The associated cities of the San Gabriel Valley was awarded third money. The big exposition, christened the "Rainbow Show," because of the successful operation for the first time of a wonderful new lighting effect—swung wide its gates last night to the admiration of 10,000 people and a veritable rainbow show it is, with its old ivory back ground and every color of the spectrum in the peacock decorations and the ever-changing lighting scheme which in itself is one of the real wonders of the exposition. All these things were decorations for nearly a million oranges worked into a wonderful design. Feature displays by Riverside, Redlands, the associated cities of Orange county, the associated cities of San Gabriel valley, Pasadena, the Pacific Electric railroad company, and many others formed the principal part of the big garden of fruit and flowers. The presentation of the pageant of peace in which Mrs. B. O. Gossett, of Riverside, is princess of peace, Miss Catherine Schultz, of Santa Ana, the princess of victory, and Miss Freda Oehl, of San Bernardino, the spirit of democracy, was a beautiful spectacle conveying the tribute of the California orange growers to the winning of the war. None of the Orange county cities had a separate display, the associated chambers of commerce having the only exhibit from this county, therefore all our prizes were credited to that body. There is no section in the world produces as great a variety of fruit as this county, therefore it was no surprise when first prize for the greatest number and varieties of citrus fruits was awarded us. More than ninety varieties were shown, and the specimens were high class. The orange show comes on a date when our best fruit, the Valencias, are not in season, therefore some other sections, where the navel is the chief crop, have an advantage of us. How- The Fullerton high school football club will meet Santa Monica, winner of the bay section title, at Fullerton on next Saturday afternoon in the semifinal game for the Southern California championship. Santa Monica defeated Inglewood on Saturday by a score of 21 to 7. Coach Culp and a bunch of his huskies witnessed the game, and it is realized that Fullerton must go strong in order to beat the beach eleven. The Southern California high school play-off series for the championship will begin on Saturday with a game between Redlands and Glendale at Redlands, and another between South Pasadena and Citrus Union at Pasadena. The winner of these two games will settle their differences in a deciding contest, and the winner will meet the winner of the Fullerton-Santa Monica game for the championship of Southern California. The team was entertained at a banquet last evening by the Fullerton chamber of commerce. OLIVER CAPTURED AFTER LONG CHASE Murderer Found Chopping Wood on Top of Smith Mountain After a hunt of more than two weeks by sheriff's officers, William Oliver was finally run to earth Saturday on the top of Smith Mountain and placed under arrest by Deputy Sheriff Jack Iman. He was chopping wood in an apple orchard at the Hayes & Warner ranch. A few days ago Mr. and Mrs. Hayes drove down off the mountain on their way to Long Beach for a visit.. Arriving at Elsinore they first heard that it was supposed that there was an escaped murderer, probably insane, somewhere on Smith Mountain. From the description he had no doubt that the man chopping wood at the ranch was Oliver. Word was sent by telephone to Santa Ana, and Thursday night Deputy Sheriff Iman and Motorcycle Officer Ballard went to Elsinore, where they were joined by Tony Keith. The three men rode in a machine to Palomar Indian reservation, where a team was rented from an Indian and the nine-mile trip to the top-of-the mountain was started. The last four miles was in snow. He gave up without a protest but was anxious to know if he had hurt anybody in making his escape as he claimed to have no knowledge of his actions at the time. The city trustees took municipal business affairs night with revim and all give a good account of The councilmen give freely to the city without the only remuneration that they fun they get out of it have their eyes open for vancement and are trying best they can even if flunked.

More than ninety varieties were shown, and the specimens were high class. The orange show comes on a date when our best fruit, the Valencias, are not in season, therefore some other sections, where the navel is the chief crop, have an advantage of us. However our associated chambers captured third prize on Washington navels, first going to Sierra Vista and second to F. S. Hooker of Riverside. We out-classed everything, however, on St. Michaels, winning first ribbon, and although our growers have heretofore devoted little attention to lemons this county was given first for the largest lemon on display. The Orange county feature display was built by A. S. Bradford, assisted by F. K. Gresswell and Gene Semelon. It is a large globe representing the world, the land areas on it being covered with tangerines. The globe is elevated on a base built of oranges, the whole being astistically lighted with electricity, manipulated by Hartwell Bradford. It is a beautiful piece of work and is much admired by the thousands who are attending the show. On the top of the globe are figures of the four big allied generals who lead their troops to victory, and at one edge is a figure of Uncle Sam represented as kicking the Kaiser off the earth. The men representing the associated chambers who built this display, advertising to the world Orange county and its diversified products, deserve the thanks of all the people of the county. There is a quiet little man in Anaheim who has worked during the past four years on the Orange county exhibit at the San Bernardino show. He worked without pay, his only re-cycle Officer Ballard went to Elsinore, where they were joined by Tony Keith. The three men rode in a machine to Palomar Indian reservation, where a team was rented from an Indian and the nine-mile trip to the top of the mountain was started. The last four miles was in snow. He gave up without a protest but was anxious to know if he had hurt anybody in making his escape as he claimed to have no knowledge of his actions at the time. On November 6 Oliver shot and killed Joe Morales at Anaheim Landing following a quarrel over a pet cat. He disappeared but was later found hiding at the Anaheim junk yard and placed under arrest. As his actions indicated insanity he was taken to the county hospital for treatment, but on January 30 escaped by breaking a hole in the wall of his cell with a piece of iron taken from his bed. He was barefooted and bareheaded, and was dressed only in pajamas. When arrested he was dressed in a suit of old clothes that he declared had been given him by an old prospector whose cabin he had stumbled across. Elma Fern Ramella has filed suit to annul her marriage to Elden I. Dodson. She was married to Dodson on February 3, and a few days later it developed that he already had a wife. When charged with the crime Dodson disappeared and a warrant was immediately issued for his arrest. A telegram was received Tuesday by Sheriff Jackson notifying him that the bigamist had been arrested at Girard, Kansas, shortly after his arrival there on a visit to relatives. He will be returned here for trial. Saturday is Washington's birthday, but as it comes on Anaheim's busy day the business houses have decided not to close. Chairman Gibbs, of the mittee, reported auditing lows: General fund, $531 million; $181.56 and library which warrants were ordered. The following officers received and ordered files Marshall, collected $966.25. Delinquent, Oil Company, $1.25.

The treasurer reported $19,728.26 in the general ruary 9, and $32,000 cash all funds. According to it was decided that the interest be paid the city mills. The city recorder re-33 cases in court and $275 colletced.

The councilmen give their services freely to the city without price, and the only remuneration they receive is the fun they get out of it. They ever have their eyes open for the city's advancement and are trying to do the best they can even if the out-fall flunked. All the members were present at the Trustee Stark who had $25.65 for permits, while fae electrician swelled the city exchequer to the tune of $12.28. Rate Collector Wallace reported collections totalling upward of $5000.00. The street superintendent gave his interesting detailed report as to how the city teams and men had been engaged, and reported the sale of considerable cypress and gum wood taken from Water street. "Wood from Water street; how about that, Mr. Superintendent," asked Trustee McFadden. "Who cut it up?" "Oh, I commandeered the tenants in Marshal Wood's sanatorium," replied the street superintendent, but owing to a scarcity of that class of labor now I will have to forego the further accumulation of fire wood." "Well, why not enlist the services of the policemen and keep up the good work," averred the councilman. And the spectators are still wondering whether or not the trustee was jesting. The superintendent of the power house reported upon various matters in his zone, including a sale of junk, which he let go at a price too low. "You should have got $42 a ton for that junk," quoted McFadden—"that's the market price now—junk's up." Officer Baxter had a bill in for two side capital to dustries here, money at home city, he said, clars for the fin it was much capital.

The city trustees took up their municipal business affairs Thursday night with vivim and all were ready to give a good account of themselves. The councilmen give their services freely to the city without price, and the only remuneration they receive is the fun they get out of it. They ever have their eyes open for the city's advancement and are trying to do the best they can even if the out-fall flunked. All the members were present, except Trustee Stark who had been detained at home by illness. Representatives of the A. R. G. Valley Stage and Crown Stage Company appeared before the board, asking for permission to cut an incline in the sidewalk in front of the Fisher building on West Center street, now occupied by the former. The three companies intend to occupy the premises as an union depot, and they desire an easy exit from the front of the building, thus obviating the necessity of backing their stages out at the rear of the structure, which leads to an alley. The place is an ideal location, but is too small for accommodation of all the stages provided they had only the one rear entrance. Trustees Gibbs and Backs looked upon the request with disfavor, believing that the traffic congestion on Center street would not permit making the change, with any degree of safety to pedestrians. The stage owners stated that a man would be kept constantly on hand in front of the office as a traffic guard to see that no accidents would occur. At their station in Los Angeles similar conditions exist and for the past year and a half they have never had any trouble. The cars would need to make only a half turn in coming out onto Center street, which is not at all hazardous. The matter was referred to the committee on public improvements. Should the request be granted the companies would put up a $10,000 bond to indemnify against any loss by accident. Mr. Baker, of the Los Angeles Safe Cabinet Company, addressed the board regarding the purchase of suitable safes for housing the city maps and papers and other equipment of value. The safe of modern design guaranteed to withstand 300 deg. of heat for two hour's duration was quoted at $1200. The matter was referred to the public improvements committees. Chairman Gibbs, of the finance committee, reported auditing bills, as follows: General fund, $5816.66, redemption $181.56 and library $189.86, for which warrants were ordered drawn. Trustee Backs in speaking of the district, wants to see a fair deal given all those property owners in the block of the policemen and keep up the good work," averred the councilman. And the spectators are still wondering whether or not the trustee was jesting. The superintendent of the power house reported upon various matters in his zone, including a sale of junk, which he let go at a price too low. "You should have got $42 a ton for that junk," quoted McFadden—"that's the market price now—junk's up." Officer Baxter had a bill in for two month's use of his fliver, at $40 per, with gas extra, the same being used in patrolling alleys and streets at night. Baxter uses a big flash light on the Tin Lizzie, which can be swivelled around in all dark corners, and is reckoned on as being a burglar preventive. McFadden, to whom the matters had been referred, thought the charge little high, and estimating that the gas carriage essayed 1000 miles a month about 30 or 35 cartwheels would be amply sufficient for reimbursement. The trustees went into a deep brown study over the case, and emerging allowed "Obe" $35 for each calendar month, he to rustle his own gas, and keep up the good work. City Attorney Ames and Engineer Steward gave reports upon the creation of an assessment district, embracing the area in the block on Center street, between Los Angeles and Lemon. There wet remains two buildings to be shoved back, and it was advised that the new district include all the area in that block. The awarding of benefits and damages in such cases made and provided are sometimes perplexing, and usually one offsets the other. Where a man actually suffers loss by curtailment of his property line he is entitled to damages, which are paid by assessing those who are benefited. That is for the commissioners to decide. By taking in the whole block the city by forming the district, automatically acquires title to the enlarged sidewalk area, which otherwise could not be obtained. Where the damages exceed the benefits the city is called upon to make up the difference, which money is taken out of the general fund. The forming of an assessment district is an ever interesting procedure and affords discussion without end, but at times is difficult of solution, and cases are on record where it is said the more you talk about it further away you get.

The safe of modern design guaranteed to withstand 300 deg. of heat for two hour's duration was quoted at $1200. The matter was referred to the public improvements committees. Chairman Gibbs, of the finance committee, reported auditing bills, as follows: General fund, $5361.66, redemption $181.56 and library $189.86, for which warrants were ordered drawn. The following officers' reports were received and ordered filed: Marshall, collected for license $966.25. Delinquent, Orange County Oil Company, $1.25. It was reported by the marshal that Mr. Stern, who has taken over the oil company, refused to pay the license, as the same was a unit of his establishment. This created a discussion, but the board decided that the license must be paid. It was said other general hardware stores in town also do not pay license for oil and gas sales which was a sort of eye-opener. The discussion drifted to drug stores where alcohol is dispensed. Since the town went bone dry one storeman holds to the opinion that alcohol for medicinal uses is exempt from the local license. And so the plot thickens. The city marshal will place himself in the role of a psychologist in the endeavor to seek a solution during the interim when the city solons can gather themselves together and re-enact a new license ordinance, which will be no picnic. The treasurer reported a balance of $19,728.26 in the general fund on February 9, and $32,000 cash on hand in all funds. According to the new law it was decided that the 2 per cent interest be paid the city monthly. The city recorder reported having 33 cases in court and fines totalling $275 colletced. The plumbing inspector gathered in damages exceed the benefits the city is called upon to make up the difference, which money is taken out of the general fund. The forming of an assessment district is an ever interesting procedure and affords discussion without end, but at times is difficult of solution, and cases are on record wherein it is said the more you talk about it further away you get. Trustee Backs in speaking of the district, wants to see a fair deal given all those property owners in the block who voluntarily cut down their building frontages. It is technically admitted that all have been benefited by the change, but of course there are some who will claim they have been damaged. Ordinance No. 344, amending section 4 of Ordinance 342, granting the Anaheim Orange and Lemon Association the right to construct a spur track on Santa Ana street, was passed to print. The hearing of application of Highway Transfer Company for license was extended to February 27. As a formality deeds for sidewalk purposes from George Hatfield, Mr. Sawdy and the Sisters of St. Dominic were ordered placed on record. A tidy sum of $3252.04 was received from the Southern Counties Gas Co., the same being 2 per cent of their earnings from January, 1913, to January, 1919, being six years. A similar check in amount of $85.96 for same period was received from the Union Home Telephone Company. Each of these checks came as a gentle surprise, some of the trustees asked why so long a delay, but as great odds move slowly, the board looked pleasant and began to believe that this world is not so cold and cruel after all. The council readily gave approval to a draft of a legislative bill, fathered (Continued on Page 7) Rev. G. R. Messias, rector of St. Michael's Episcopal church, spoke on "Better Churches." One of the things Anaheim needed, he said, was better church and better school buildings, as visitors always gauged the progressiveness of a city by the appearance of its churches and schools. Good school and church buildings were a matter of business, as the average man always enquires regarding them before locating in a town. St. Michael's congregation was preparing to make important alterations in the building, and the Methodists had recently voted to erect a new building at a cost of $70,000. Sentiment, he said, interfered with the razing of St. Michael's, as it is the oldest Episcopal church in Southern California. More payrolls was the subject on which G. W. Sandilands talked, and of course he devoted most of his time to the orange industry and its development. Anaheim, he declared, had received more than a million dollars for its orange crop last year, and indications are that it will pass the two million mark this year. He advocated the creation of a hundred thousand dollar industrial fund for the purpose of attracting industries. He saw no reason why Anaheim should not take care of its quota in the fifth government loan as easily as it did with the previous ones. He also spoke of the need of more houses. Thomas Crawford was on the program for an address on "Manufacturing." Mr. Crawford thinks it is not necessary for Anaheim to wait for out- Every day's school's pre-Tracy took Huntington and gave them lives low felt that missionary work offering them office; for the Beach's prowess could see now selfs, but we spirit they saw landed at this (so it seemed) Beach team and how The Fuller hitherto unnequal to daunted they do or die; wind affair; of the whirl seemed to be game developed Tracy has on the first wail all angles against Beach.

MITCHELL'S BOOKS REVEAL TEACHERS' PAY IN COUNTY RIDICULOUSLY SMALL Judging by the figures presented to the Anaheim grammar school board by Prof. J. L. Van der Veer, principal of the schools, teachers' salaries at the present time are not commensurate with the high cost of living. Mr. Van der Veer was asking an increase in the salaries of the twenty-six teachers of the grammar schools, and after presenting his figures and his argument the board granted a raise of $5 per month. The figures taken from County Superintendent Mitchell's books show the surprising foot that the average salary Prof. Thomas Askin, Joe Sanford, Mrs. H. O. Henderson, Miss Antonia Friend, Mrs. E. H. Adams, Miss Margaret Junge and Miss Dorothy GarriSON were the musicians. They are among the best of our local talent, and each contributed much to the pleasure of the entertainment. J. F. Ahlborn was an admirable toastmaster, and mande an excellent talk at the opening of the program. Mr. Ahlborn was present at the first banquet of the board of trade, and recalled that speakers on that occasion boasted of bank deposits totalling $180,000. Much had been accomplished in Anaheim during the sixteen years since that first banquet was held, and he predicted that the city would continue to advance, and greater things were in store for us in the near future. The ladies of the Eastern Star furnished a banquet the excellence of which put everybody in a good humor before the speaking began. A vote of thinks was extended to the ladies, also to Chairman Bayliss of the entertainment committee, and to the musicians. BEET TOPS FOR SILAGE While beet growers in Ventura county have been accustomed to sell their beet tops in the field, to cattle and sheep owners, at about $2 per acre, they have found out recently that these tops make excellent silage of high feeding value, and that when turned into silage an additional value of about $35 per acre is realized from them. The Farm Bureau of Ventura county is putting on a silo campaign and plans have been laid for the construction of a number of beet silos this year. The use of beet tops for silage has also been tried in other beet-growing sections with very gratifying results. Converting the tops into silage not only utilizes all the tops, whereas a considerable percentage is wasted when they are pastured in the field, but the silage can be kept indefinitely and fed to the best possible advantage. A great deal of interest is being shown by beet growers and sugar factory men in the feeding experiments being carried on with beet top silage. The results thus far have been so satisfactory, however, that there seems little doubt but that this method of utilizing what heretofore has been a by-product of little value will rapidly grow in popularity in all beet-growing areas. FULLERTON WINS AGAIN Every day adds to Fullerton high school's prestige. Thursday Coach Prof. Thomas Askin, Joe Sanford, Mrs. H. O. Henderson, Miss Antonia Friend, Mrs. E. H. Adams, Miss Margaret Junge and Miss Dorothy GarriSON were the musicians. They are among the best of our local talent, and each contributed much to the pleasure of the entertainment. J. F. Ahlborn was an admirable toastmaster, and mande an excellent talk at the opening of the program. Mr. Ahlborn was present at the first banquet of the board of trade, and recalled that speakers on that occasion boasted of bank deposits totalling $180,000. Much had been accomplished in Anaheim during the sixteen years since that first banquet was held, and he predicted that the city would continue to advance, and greater things were in store for us in the near future. The ladies of the Eastern Star furnished a banquet the excellence of which put everybody in a good humor before the speaking began. A vote of thinks was extended to the ladies, also to Chairman Bayliss of the entertainment committee, and to the musicians. BEET TOPS FOR SILAGE While beet growers in Ventura county have been accustomed to sell their beet tops in the field, to cattle and sheep owners, at about $2 per acre, they have found out recently that these tops make excellent silage of high feeding value, and that when turned into silage an additional value of about $35 per acre is realized from them.

Thursday Coach Tracy took his basketball tossers to Huntington Beach for a friendly tiff and gave the beach men the drubbing of their lives. The coach and his fellows felt that they were doing a bit of missionary work, even to the extent of offering themselves up for a living sacrifice, for they had read of Huntington Beach's prowess at the ring game and could see nothing but defeat for themselves, but with that Fullerton fighting spirit they sailed away from home and landed at their scene of destruction (so it seemed) at 2:30 P.M. Huntington Beach was ready with a husky team and howling student body. The Fullerton team, composed of hitherto unrecognized athletes, looked unequal to the task, but nothing daunted they took the court ready to do or die. The game proved a whirlwind affair, with Fullerton doing most of the whirling, for Huntington Beach seemed to be mostly a breeze. The game developed the fact that Coach Tracy has developed ball tossers of the first water. They threw goals at all angles and were able to count 37 points against 20 for Huntington Beach. The team from Fullerton consisted of Hiltscher at left forward, Roberts at right forward, Kraemer at center, Williamson at left guard and Evans at right guard. Howard Herman and Jamison alternated with the above five and every man was good. The figures gathered by Van der Veer follow: Anaheim—Number of teachers, 26; average yearly salary, $810.87; average for nine months, $90.09; average per day for nine months, $3; average for twelve months, $67.57; average per day for twelve months, $2.25.
