Stetson= Style assurance Quality insurance Green Brown Grays Blue Black are Here When you buy a Stetson Hat you may rest assured that you've got the best hat made. Good in every way; authentic style, correct shape, fine materials, skilled workmanship—the 1920 Stetson are worthy members of the John B. Stetson Hat family. There is a size to fit your head and a shape to suit your style at the S. Q. R. Store. Sole Agent of Walk Over Shoes The S. Q. R. Store "Home of Greater Values" Believing by the authorities to be members of an alleged band of burglars that has been operating in the northern part of the county recently, E. Juarez, 20; Ralph Carbajal, 21; and Jose Moreno, 26, are in the county jail awaiting arraignment in justice court. Moreno, who described himself as a boilermaker, was charged with highway robbery. He is suspected of having held up an elderly man on the Bastanchury ranch, near Fullerton, several days ago, and taken $55 from him. Juarez and Carbajal were charged with burglary. Juarez was taken into custody by City Marshal Meyers and Deputy Murillo, at Fullerton. Under Sheriff Jack Iman, who took the three men to jail, stated that on being questioned Juarez implicated Carbajal in several recent burglaries. Iman also brought to the county jail R. I. Nelson, 23, who described himself as a boilermaker. Nelson was arrested on a charge of having stolen a ride in a box car. Samuel Kraemer is so far recovered from his recent operation that he was able to return to his home the latter part of the week. He is reported doing well, and his friends are looking forward to his entire recovery within a short time. During the absence of the family a thief entered the residence of H. A. Dickel on North Lemon street Saturday about noon and carried off a Victrola. He was seen by neighbors as he placed the instrument in a patch of corn nearby, but as he was affable and said he would soon return for it, no further attention was paid to the matter, it being the supposition that declarations of intention to become citizens are on file with the county clerk Tuesday for five Dominican sisters of St. Catharine's Orphanage, at Anaheim. Their names and positions in the institution are: Annie Petronella Kniffer, teacher; Ida Katharina Gantner, sister in convent; Elizabeth Knerr, sister in convent; Barbara Cordovinus, teacher; and Anna Margret Lindemann, cook. The applicants were all born in Germany. It was stated at the office of County Clerk J. M. Backs that approximately fifteen additional sisters at St. Catharine's Orphanage intend to file declarations shortly. Thor Christoferson, a harness maker of Garden Grove, and born in Norway, and Gustaf Olson, an automobile mechanic, of 622 North Van Ness, Santa Ana, and born in Sweden, have taken out first citizenship papers. Up in Los Angeles, it is said, some unscrupulous real estate agents have adopted a new plan for bleeding unfortunate renters. When a place is vacated they collect a number of applicants for houses, take them to the vacant place and auction it off to the highest bidder. Scarcity of houses in Southern California is working a hardship on renters, but persons with children who do not own their own homes are particularly unfortunate. We have heard of people traveling from town to town seeking in vain for a vacant house. Some days ago a lady came here from Los Angeles looking for a house. After a weary search she had found a place in the Angel city and was about to take possession when the agent dis- William F.

He was seen by neighbors as he placed the instrument in a patch of corn nearby, but as he was affable and said he would soon return for it, no further attention was paid to the matter, it being the supposition that the man was not a burglar. Later Mr. Turck, upon going to the house discovered the theft, but the thief had escaped. The A. O. Circle was entertained some days ago by Mrs. C. E. Chamberlain at her home on Crone avenue. "The Migration of Wild Birds" was the chief subject discussed during the afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. V. W.

SUGGESTIONS FOR MAILING CHRISTMAS PACKAGES Postoffice Department Wants Every- William F. Zittzmann died at the sanitarium Saturday after an illness of several months. About a month ago he was operated on at the Pacific hospital, Los Angeles, after which he was brought here. He was 48 years of age and has been a resident of Anaheim for eleven years. Funeral was held at Backs & Terry's Tuesday afternoon. The proprietors of the El Cajon canning factory are anxious to establish a cannery and marmalade factory in Garden Grove provided they are assured sufficient fruit and vegetables to warrant such a venture. The cannery would employ from fifty to seventy-five people and would convert into cash hundreds of tons of foodstuffs which are now wasted each year. There is little question but that a factory of this kind would prove a paying proposition from the start and as they put out a splendid grade of goods and ship their products to all parts of the United States, it would naturally be a big advertisement for this locality. Following a banquet at the Oyster Loaf Cafe in honor of Ralph Fuller of Orange, an Anniversary Club, composed of old timers of the county was organized at the Mother Colony Club rooms Monday night. The club will hold a meeting once a month and celebrate the birthdays of the members whose anniversaries occur in that month. Officers chosen were: W. F. Scott, Orange, president; Dr. J. D.

A large number of friends from Anaheim, Piacentia and Fullerton were present and helped make the day an exceedingly pleasant one. SUGGESTIONS FOR MAILING CHRISTMAS PACKAGES Postoffice Department Wants Everybody to Hustle Up. Christmas is approaching. The post office department requests all to do their shopping early, thus enabling packages that are to be mailed to reach their destinations by Christmas day. If this is done much work can be lightened at the post office, and at the same time, general satisfaction all around can be given. Packages can be labeled "Not to be opened until Christmas" or similar notations may be made. Use care in packing and tying, and extra care in packing articles that are easy to break. Such articles should be labeled "fragile." Perishable articles should be labeled "perishable," and should be sent with a special delivery stamp, 10 cents extra. This expedites their delivery. Don't fail to place return address on all packages, thus insuring their return in case they cannot be delivered. Extra postage is required to have all packages returned. See that your letters and packages are properly addressed and in a legible hand. Always place the address on the lower right hand corner, with the return address on the upper left hand corner. Every one is asked to comply with this instruction. It insures good service. Parcel post packages can only be mailed at the postoffice. Do not seal your packages for they then come under the first class rate. Parcel post is fourth class matter, which ranges from the local zone to the eighth zone, different rates for each zone. Those wishing circulars in regard to rates and other features of the parcel post, will be supplied with the same on request at the stamp window. Remember, an ounce over a pound counts two pounds, and so on. Seventy pounds can be mailed in the lo- Miss Annie Everhardy has been a guest during the week of Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Schneider. Miss Everhardy has been residing in Los Angeles for several months past, but will go to Venice to make her home there. Rev. F. J. Dubbel came down from Santa Maria the first of the week and spent a few days greeting his numerous friends here. Father Dubbel still has a warm place in his heart for Anaheim, where he spent many years as head of St. Boniface's church, and he always receives a warm welcome from its people, irrespective of their church affiliations. Mrs. Amalie Frohling, Anaheim's oldest citizen measuring her years of residence here, was married in this city on November 24, 1859. Her sixteenth wedding anniversary fell on Monday of last week. On Wednesday, November 26, her granddaughter, Miss Marie Pellegrin, was married at St. Boniface's church to Ernest Van Oost in the presence of a number of relatives and friends. The bride is a daughter of Mrs. Alma Pellegrin and recently graduated as a nurse at the Anaheim sanitarium. The groom served with the army in France. Capt. Jimmie Innerarity of Seal Beach was in town on Monday afternoon and made a pleasant visit to this office, where he is as welcome as the flowers that bloom in the spring. Jimmie was 80 years old last September, and is hale and hearty as a man half his years. He owns the launch J. I., but since the construction of the railroad and boulevard bridges across the bay, finds it rough work getting over the bar. He thinks of moving to Balboa, where we hope he will be prosperous and happy, and will live to be a hundred years old. AT SEAL BEACH Next Sunday will be a day of daring aviation stunts at Seal Beach, with Earl Daugherty and Westley C. May as the star performers.

His hat is in the ring against all comers when it comes to exhibition and stunt flying. May is only nineteen years old, and was discharged from the government air-service November 1. He performs all sorts of dare-devil feats on the plane in mid-air, such as walking around the plane standing on his head on the fuselage, hanging by his toes from the landing gear.

"also believe that the many Orange county admirers of our late president will not" NOEL & DUCKWORTH TO HAVE LARGER QUARTERS Expect New Hartman Building Will be Completed in January. Noll & Duckworth are at be-located in new quarters on East Center street about the middle of January according to plans which are now under way, a deal having been made by this firm with B. E. Hartman, the owner of the Hartman block at the corner of Olive and Center streets for the erection of a building 50x125 feet between the Eastside Grocery and the Anaheim Gazette. Kremel & Erkes are the architects for the new building which will be of brick and concrete. Noll & Duckworth will also have the northern Orange county agency for Firestone tires, in the solid truck and big pneumatic wheel equipment, and they claim that a local agency in this line of business means a great saving to truck owners in the county, and their entry into this addition to the tire business shows an energetic enterprise which speaks well for the future of the firm. Mr. Noll also reports that his firm has ordered and now has enroute to Anaheim a 250-ton solid tire press which will be added to their present equipment. This firm gives out the additional information of their intention to install a gasoline and oil station for the accommodation of their trade, and that they will handle oil wholesale and retail. Arrangements are also being made to handle a well-known battery and they will install a hat. The Orange county drive will close on Saturday. Chairman Burke expected to renew his efforts in connection with the campaign here. "I believe that the people of Orange county should rally to the fund to honor Roosevelt, especially now that the time has been extended until Saturday," said Burke. "also believe that the many Orange county admirers of our late president will not allow themselves to fall down on this last campaign to honor the great man. I think that the people should, and will, respond financially to the memorial fund. If everyone in the county who admires Roosevelt would send in a dollar subscription we would be oversubscribed." The response in some communities has been excellent, Los Angeles workers said. Pasadena turned in $3000. The school children of Compton collected $200 in pickels and dimes. The Japanese Association subscribed $187.50. Santa Monica, Glendale, Downey and Van Nuys have all contributed liberally, Long Beach and Pomona have not yet been heard from, but will undoubtedly give a large sum. The American Legion has sent in substantial amounts from several points. PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Rev. C. B. Hatch, Pastor. Services next Sunday: Bible school at 9:45 a.m. F. N. Gibbs, Superintendent.
