NORTH WILL HAVE CHAMBER OF COMMERCE THIRD SUPERVISOR DISTRICT TO ORGANIZE ASSOCIATED BODY ON FEBRUARY 10. Will Present a Solid Front Against Proposal to Gerrymander the County and Divide the District.—Not to Withdraw from County A. C. of C. Opposition to the proposal of the board of supervisors to gerrymander the county whereby large portions of the wealth and population of the Third supervisor district may be sliced off and added to other districts, has crystallized into action, and a determined stand is being taken to the move. The people of the district are unanimously lined up in opposition to the proposition, and any section which it is sought to divorce from its old love and give to another will stir up merry hades before submitting to such a proceeding. The first step was taken at a meeting held at Fullerton Thursday night for the purpose of considering the organization of a northern Orange county chamber of commerce, comprising all the boards of trade in the third world on citrus fruit culture, men whose advice is invaluable to the grower. I am not ready to announce the program at this time, and can do nothing more than assure the citrus fruit growers of California that it will be decidedly to their advantage to attend the institute, which after all, is the really practical side of the Orange Show." The University of California citrus experiment station at Riverside will have a large and comprehensive exhibit at the Orange Show, said Dr. Webber. Last year the experiment station had on display 125 varieties of citrus fruit. This year there will be 300 varieties, and according to Dr. Webber the experiment will within five years have completed a collection of between 500 and 600 varieties. OSTEOPATHIC SURGEONS TAKE RAP AT SYSTEM Examination of School Children Incomplete, They Say. The Orange County Osteopathic Association met in regular session Friday evening January 9, at the Anaheim offices of Drs. Bigham & Bigham with the president, Dr. McMullen, of Fullerton in the chair.

The when Lewis w fans got up on lined up in opposition to the proposition, and any section which it is sought to divorce from its old love and give to another will stir up merry hades before submitting to such a proceeding. The first step was taken at a meeting held at Fullerton Thursday night for the purpose of considering the organization of a northern Orange county chamber of commerce, comprising all the boards of trade in the third district. Fifty men were present representing all sections of the district, and sentiment in favor of the new association was unanimous. It is not the intention of this section to break away from the county associated chambers, nor to divide the county into hostile sections, but it is believed the north should have a local association comprising all territory north of the Santa Ana river, but still retaining membership in the county organization. The broader scope of working in the interest of the north half was discussed, but the central theme was organization to block any attempt to revise the boundaries of the supervisorial districts. An invitation was extended Garden Grove to send delegates to the meeting, but that community did not respond. Wm. Schumacher, representative of the third supervisorial district on the board of supervisors, was present. He advised that an attempt will be made within a year to redistrict the county and urged the formation of a strong organization to combat such a movement. All who expressed themselves at the gathering were enthusiastic for the creation of an association of some kind of all community interests north of the Santa Ana river. At the suggestion of the Anaheim board of trade it was decided that the association should be formally organized by duly appointed representatives of the various civic societies in the district, consequently a meeting was called for Fullerton on February 10, at which five delegates from each board of trade or chamber of commerce and representatives from the women's clubs and school board of the district shall effect the organization. A banquet will be given by the Fullerton board of trade on evening January 9, at the Anaheim offices of Drs. Bigham & Bigham with the president, Dr. McMullen, of Fullerton in the chair. Dr. Harriet Bigham, director of programs, introduced the following local speakers who discussed their subjects briefly but pointedly: Dr. Hester Tripp Olewiler of Santa Ana presented data to show the evil effects of drugs in respiratory diseases as evidenced by experiences with the flu. Dr. Peryl B. Magill, also of Santa Ana, developed the need of manipulative therapy to assist the normal development of many children. Dr. Bernice Bennett of Huntington Beach cautioned the assembly against letting the H.C. of L. detract from the proper and wholesome feeding of children and thus crippling their development. The treat of the evening was an address by Dr. T.J. Ruddy, head of the Eye, Ear, Nose and Throat Department of the Los Angeles Settlement House Clinic (where 18,000 children are treated annually), also in charge of the eye, ear, nose and throat work at the Maude Booth Home for boys and girls, and head of the same department in the College of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons at Los Angeles, who stated that: "In the examination of children of school age, it is commonly found that they can be grouped in three classes—well, sick and mal-nourished. The average school inspection nurse, and in many cases, physicians, passed upon those who were sick and those who were well, wholly overlooking the poorly nourished group which constitutes 36 per cent of all children. Under the present school system, all are compelled to meet the same requirements and progress at the same speed with the result that 33 out of every 100 children finish their common school education physically unit, and this without the family physician or school inspector knowing why. If school inspection systems are to be more than farcical in guiding our future generation, something must be done more than looking at test charts, examining the throat and filling out blanks. Every organ and every activity of the mind must everybody took some of the most guys who had last week's pay looked as though hedge.

A banquet will be given by the Fulerton board of trade on the occasion. According to the discussion there is no disposition on the part of the framers of this association to antagonize the county association, but rather to work in harmony with it for the good of the entire county so far as possible, but a determenid fight will be made against any attempt to divert a portion of our tax roll and population to any other district. CITRUS INSTITUTE DATES FEBRUARY 20-21 To Be Held With Orange Show and Program to be Vital to Orange Growers. Declaring that the best authorities in the world on citrus fruit culture will be brought to San Bernardino for the citrus institute to be held in conjunction with the Tenth National Orange Show, Dr. H. J. Webber, director of the University of California Citrus Experiment Station, has announced the conference of citrus fruit men, for February 20 and 21. The Orange Show will be held February 13 to 23. "The institute program this year," said Dr. Webber, "will be an enlarged one. We will bring to San Bernardino some of the best authorities in the There re people in Placentia sleeping in cots set up in halls and on porches. Beds in the rooming houses are working two shifts, oil men on the night shift sleeping in them during the day and others occupying them at night. And many people come to town and move on because they can find no sleeping place at all. Fix up your "spare room," neighbor, and rent it out. It is a civic duty.—Placentia Courier. These are probably overflows from Anaheim. There are no vacant hall or porch beds here, and all the shacks are occupied. Even automobiles have been crowded out of the garages in order to make room for people demanding shelter. The kids had their eagle eye on the foul balls that flew over the back fences. Some kids are known to have annexed lost balls and kept right on going, and started up a game of their own, before the managers started to look for the stray ones. BASEBALL As a curtain raiser for a fast twelve inning ball game Sunday between Anaheim and Rall's All-Stars, Salverson and La Porte pulled a side line episode in the right garden when they staged a head-on collision in their endeavors to catch a fly in a practice warm-up. A physician was called and after administering restoratives both men again saw daylight and when their head wounds had been puttied up were ready to get into the game. Until the sixth inning the contest consisted of monotonous retirements of the one, two, three order for each battery and the bleacher fans were thinking seriously of putting on a few indoor sports on the sidelines to keep from shivering to death. At this stage of the argument Bob Hellmann, who by the way is a Detroit leaguer, believed he had gathered enough moss and started to unroll himself. He swung on the horsehide for as pretty a deep center drive as has ever been seen here, and galloped around the sacks like a Yankee doughboy going over the top. His home-run was the means of casting gloom over the local aggregation. Manager Riley began pawing the air and went about looking as though he was in for a beating. Vetter grabbed up one of the willow sticks, and with the fans giving him the glad-hand, slammed out a two bagger. The locals perked up and when Lewis was walked to first the fans got up on their toes and took on say much, but he can peg the pellet to second to beat the band. Fay Lewis staged a come-back after a seven year layoff, and showed much of his good old time pep as of yore. Jake Vetter holds down first in fine form and has some pretty put-outs to his credit. Pete Hax piloted a bunch of Fullerton fans and all enjoyed the game. Pete will miss a turkey dinner anytime to see a ball game. Quite a delegation was over from Fullerton, and the management was glad to see them. A conservative estimate placed the number in attendance at 1800. Harold Berger held the sack and says the fans are loosening up in good shape. This town now boasts of the best ball team ever put together; might call it professional. Hump-tee-tee-dee, dee-del-dee! In the eleventh Lewis, for the visitors, binged out a terrific liner down left field, but it struck just outside. It looked like a homer, and when Manager Riley heard the umpire call "foul" he raised up in the air on all fours and when he hit the earth again he carried a smile that just wouldn't wear off. Lan Franco made two or three fine from a health standpoint. He appeared before the city council Thursday night and asked permission to give exhibitions, but a city ordinance forbids giving athletic contests. The matter was referred to the city attorney. If he can overcome legal obstacles McComas intends to form an athletic club and promote exhibitions of a strictly amateur character. He has a number of pupils in other cities and he says a number of them have made wonderful records. There is nothing of a professional nature connected with his schools of instruction and he makes the assertion that he can stop any young man from smoking cigarettes without saying a word about the baneful habit. McComas comes well recommended and no doubt will succeed in starting his athletic class here. He says it is worth a great deal to any young man to take care of himself, and while not going about looking for trouble a young man who is a good boxer prevents trouble. He tells of an incident that happened to him in a nearby coast town that won him a life-long friend. As he was walking along the street a big young man, who was intoxicated, accosted him, looking for a fight. The man was abusive and rough, but it was here where his athletic prowess was a benefit. McComas says he knocked down the quarrelsome fellow with a punch, and as one was all that was needed, he afterwards picked up the man. When he recovered he apologized and later became a friend and has so continued ever since.

It looked like a homer, and when Manager Riley heard the umpire call "foul" he raised up in the air on all fours and when he hit the earth again he carried a smile that just wouldn't wear off. Lan Franco made two or three fine assists and is deserving of credit for his labors in helping hold down the Stars. Earl Steadman looked in on the game and inclined to the idea that Riley has a fast bunch. There was a report that one of the opposing league players advised a friend not to stake anything one way or the other. There are some men who are as dumb as an oyster around their own lot but when they go to a baseball set-to unlung themselves like a Comache Indian. Billy Knott is always there and is known as a hard-boiled collection agent. Alvin Nowotny took a great interest in the argument, likewise showing the latest design in headgear for gents of fashion. Frank Tausch was there to give them the once over. Frank used to be a good ball player himself, but now is content to be a spectator. A good representation of the fair sex was in evidence and no doubt were the indirect cause of many grand stand plays. Marshal Wood was in the front line trenches and showed signs of developing into a full-fledged fan one of these days. Herman Noll mingled with the crowd and was of opinion that it was a pretty contest. Sam Taylor surely does kid the man was abusive and rough, but it was here where his athletic prowess was a benefit. McComas says he knocked down the quarrelsome fellow with a punch, and as one was all that was needed, he afterwards picked up the man. When he recovered he apologized and later became a friend and has so continued ever since. McComas while an expert boxer says he would specialize in wrestling which he claims is the greatest body builder known today. A number of leading citizens have taken an interest in his proposition and no doubt he will be able to locate here. SOME CAME EARLY AND TARRIED LONG City Park Ground Grew Fast into Popular Favor.—Now Nominal Charge is Made After Fourth Day. Some months ago the city established an auto park for tourists. The place is conveniently situated, and free light, water and gas is furnished for those who chance to be passing, and who stay for three or four days. The parking place has grown popular and at times quite a number of tourists are encamped upon the grounds. But there usually happens to be some one who abuses his privilege and comes equipped to stay as long as the staying is good. It is said one man moved in with his family, preempted a claim and proceeded to stay until the ice began breaking. He was thoughtful and while his family was reducing the high cost of rent he hied himself away during the daytime to work at his job at various points roundabout, but always was Johnny on the spot when evening shades began to fall and put up for the night. Bright and early next morning he was up with the lark nd away on his quest for further labor. Things were moving along amazingly well and the sky-rocketing of household expenses held no terror for him as long as he was the city's guest. But the unfeeling authorities got next and politely but firmly informed their visiting friend that there was a limit to all things and that he would not hurt their feel- Everybody took on a keen edge and some of the more venturesome home guys who had the contents of their last week's pay envelope in escrow, looked as though they would like to hedge. But neither side was able to get on the scoreboard when the ninth spasm was over. The tenth, eleventh and twelfth innings were played, which is something very unusual, and as the sun was disappearing in the west, Manager Riley called the game, announcing that it would be concluded next Sunday. Pick-ups and Throws Ump. Wagner must have left his long distance glasses at home, for some of the fans said he mixed up balls and strikes, and at one time it appeared as if Joe would have to roll up his sleeves in self defense. While Manager Riley cannot be classed as a bird, he can be in more places at one and the same time than anybody who ever gamboled around a ball field. Vic LaMont, who used to referee ball games so far back that the oldest inhabitant cannot recall the date, signalled a runner safe at first, which almost caused the bleacher bugs to start a riot. Manager Rall hot-footed hither and yon, and while he had a husky bunch performing, was unable to fetch home the bacon. Buster Callan at the local backstop has a beautiful wing. Bus doesn't Marshal Wood was in the front line trenches and showed signs of developing into a full-fledged fan one of these days. Herman Noll mingled with the crowd and was of opinion that it was a pretty contest. Sam Taylor surely does kid the bunch when they start crabbing. One day Sam was handing it to a guy who looked like he worked in the soda works, when a woman nearby says—that's my husband. Oh, says Sam, I would advise you to build a fence around him—you might lose him." Sam doesn't care a whoop whom he jolles when he's at a ball game. There were people present from all over the county and then some. From all indications Anaheim is on the baseball map right. ATHLETIC INSTRUCTOR DESIRES TO LOCATE R. McComas of Pomona Visits City and Being Impressed Seeks Opportunity to Teach Manly Art of Self Defense. R. McComas of Pomona desires a class of young men here for the purpose of giving instruction in athletics. He plans to provide all kinds of indoor sports for young and old, and give instruction in boxing and wrestling. Mr. McComas acquired his athletic knowledge while he attended college and speaking from a personal viewpoint says he would not accept $10,000 for the benefit he has derived Regarding Cider A little squib appearing under this heading a few weeks ago anent the use of a cream separator to put the proverbial kick into cider has traveled some and judging from all accounts the device to disunite the lacteal fluid has been brought prominently into play since the country has been annexed to the Sahara desert. Of course the new culinary note had been caught on the fly and there was no purpose to start a stocking up of gloom chasers among the thirsty populace by giving it publicity. But it seems as though the dope has taken a foothold and it wouldn't be surprising to hear of many dairies being made over with a different object in view. From the best of information cider readily acquires a high power voltage by being subjected to the process named, and in these days of aridity is becoming a popular beverage among a large class of citizens.

Many people cannot believe the dry spell will always last, and even now in some places it is said if a fellow gives the proper salutation sign he need not go away in dispair, but nevertheless you have to be careful or the gumshoe man will flag you. Be that as it may it remains a fact that the cream separator is becoming almost a household word. CONGRESS TO PUT BRAKES ON HIGH ESTIMATES Senators Resolved to Protect Taxpayers from Unnecessary Burdens. "The taxpayers of this country simply won't stand for such expenditures, that's there is to it. We've got to cut down such estimates as have been given us, there's no other way out of it." Such are the declarations of Senator Reed Smoot, who is a member of both the finance and appropriation committees of the Senate. Senator Smoot ha smade the statement that he expects to see $1,500,000,000 cut from the estimates of the executive departments for the period ending June 30, 1921. This is one of the big problems facing the present Congress. Judging from the views expressed by Senator Smoot Congress is going to take the law-making bit into its teeth and override the extravagance of the execu- tive branch of the government in order to carry out the Republican program of economy. Congress on its reassembling after the holiday recess is determined to meet a most serious fiscal situation and wield the axe of economy right and left. Senator Smoot is not alone in his ideas of preventing extravagance for the Senate is planning to pay closer attention this year than ever before to all appropriation bills that are sent over from the House end of the Capitol. Expenditures will be cut to the bone by the Senate and only absolutely necessary expenditures will be reported by the Senate committees. The sum of $1,500,000,000 which Senator Smoot and others hope can be saved to the taxpayers, is 50 per cent in excess of the total annual national expenditure of this country at hte time of its entrance into he European war. And it is known that there are expenditures that have been overlooked or not yet down in making up the estimates. Nothing has been estimated for taking care of the railroad deficit on account of government management or mismanagement, which amounts to $600,000,000 and Congress cannot lose sight of this fact. The Secretary of the Treasury has admitted that the deficit will be $3,155,888,543 by June 30, 1920. Senator Smoot, who has been working continually on this question during the congressional recess pieces his estimate on the deficit by that date at $3,950,000,000.
