STO FRUIT AGAIN MOVING It was a welcome sight to see lemons being shipped once more from the HOW OVERALL FAD STARTED A dispatch from Paris, France, dated Sunday, says: WHAT DO Y Congressman Rain Figures obtained FRUIT AGAIN MOVING It was a welcome sight to see lemons being shipped once more from the Central Lemon association's packing house at Villa Park, the first shipments made since the embargo was put on when the rail strike began. Manager E. B. Collier sent out ten carloads last week. The lemons go on the Southern Pacific to Santa Ana, where they are transferred to the Santa Fe, which has lifted its embargo, for the trip east. Three carloads of Valencias, packed and iced since the strike began, also left the Villa Park Orchards association Wednesday afternoon, taking the same route. A total of ten cars of lemons in all have been shipped to San Francisco by water since the strike began, trucks hauling the fruit to Wilmington. Five cars have already reached their destination, two more left Wilmington on the Governor, and three more carloads are due to leave on a vessel sailing Sunday. The water shipments effect only a slight saving in freight charges and whenever possible shipments will be made by rail. The citrus growers' greatest worry now, according to Manager Collier, is the shortage in refrigerator cars, the natural shortage this season of the year being increased by the rail strike which delays the return of empty cars. Collier feels that the shortage of cars for citrus shipments the coming season is going to be the worst ever, and he doesn't know just how any relief, if any, is to be obtained. HOW OVERALL FAD STARTED A dispatch from Paris, France, dated Sunday, says: Flashing like a meteor into Paris, loaded with more diamonds than the late "Jim" Brady, and scattering handfulls of bills with a prodigality of "Million-dollar" Gates, Johnny Sorenson of New York, the first overall millionaire, who has just sold out his interest in the big overall factories in Newark, N. J., Schenectady and Buffalo, N. Y., at a thousand per cent profit, arrived at Claridges, grabbing the royal suite a moment before Prince and Princess Christian telephoned requesting reservation. Mr. Sorenson said: "The overall campaign in America is the biggest publicity stunt ever pulled off. "It originated in the brain of a New York reporter who seeing the possibilities of the 'story' went to the biggest overall firm in the country and put the scheme in operation. He got $10,000 for the idea and was given a job at the head of the firm's publicity department. "The stock of my company bounded from 43 to 600 in a few days after the idea sprung on the public. At the psychological moment, I sold out and grabbed the first boat for France to get a cocktail." The dramatic department of the high school gave an entertainment at the auditorium Tuesday night, the gate receipts being added to the Ebell club house fund.

Congressman Rainey of Illinois says: Figures obtained from the internal Local Notes Fullerton will have at least one representative in the tryouts for the Olympic games which will be held late this summer in Belgium, and if hopes of many local people are realized, another Orange county athlete will make the trip to Europe for the international contests, just as Fred Kelly of Orange, contested several years ago and won the hurdling championship. Arch Hawkins, Fullerton high school's crack athlete, is the man and he will enter the district tryouts to be held in Pasadena on June 26. He expects to enter in the 110-yard and 225-yard events. Hawkins has run the 100 in 10 seconds flat more than once. While this is not a world's record, it is fast running, and it is believed that a man who can consistently make this stands a chance of getting on the team and making the trip to Europe. Mr. and Mrs. William Geerdes have returned to this city from Los Angeles, where they have been living during the winter. Mr. Geerdes has purchased a ten-acre orange ranch at the corner of Garden Grove road and Orangethorpe avenue, and has erected a residence on his South Olive street property, where he will reside. Last week it was reported that Paul Bohannon of Yorba Linda had deserted from the United States navy, but a day or two ago his mother received a letter from an officer stating that Bohannon was on board a warship at New Orleans, and was not a deserter. The officer, of course, regretted that the false report had been given out, etc. Ernest Norrish, nephew of P. H. Krick, who works at the Krick dairy, fell while handling a bale of hay a few days ago, and seriously injured his wounded arm. Norrish's right arm was shattered above the elbow by a Hun bullet in the Argonne battle. Army surgeons removed more than three inches of the bone, shortening the arm to that extent, and he was discharged as healed, but the local physician, who treated him last week, discovered that the bone had never knit. The arm has been practically useless since he received the wound. The sweet girl graduate who is to receive her diploma in June at Santa Ana high school will wear a dress that will not cost over $1 a year. The limit placed upon the cost is voluntary on the part of the girls of the senior class. They had a meeting, talked it over and set the dead line. She who goes beyond needs to look a little bit out for the cold shoulder. The girls may have their choice of material, so long as its cost stays within the limit that has been set. The dresses are to be of white. Spring colors were voted down. Shoes and stockings are to be white. Selection of patterns and materials for the graduation dress in the mind of the ordinary senior girl naturally is beginning to vie with the study of literature, science, art and other important subjects taught at the high school. The senior girl may wear any dress of her choice to the baccalaureate sermon. Clarence Halber of Pasadena has taken a lease on the Henning building, Placentia, owned by M. E. Bever of Anaheim and now occupied by the public library, and will open a department soon as he can obtain WHAT DO YOU THINK? Congressman Rainey of Illinois says: Figures obtained from the internal revenue department show that 21,000 new millionaires were created during the war period. That 69,000 men made more than $3,000,000,000, above their normal income, during the war. No one has contradicted these statements. P. T. Elder, a New York capitalist owning property in California, and urging California people to advertise to attract eastern money, says: In Chicago there are nearly 1,000 men who have an annual income of a million dollars each. In Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, New York and the New England states there are 10,000 who have an income of million dollars each. CARHART WILL VISIT SOUTH SEA ISLANDS Ex-Mayor of Fullerton Going on Long and Interesting Hike "When I was a boy, I left New York and roamed about over the United States until I am familiar with every section of it. Now I am going to see some of the places I have read so much about. I am going alone, just to roam around awhile and am looking forward to the most delightful trip of my life." So says J. R. Carhart, well-known Fullerton resident, who "stepped out" as mayor of the city Monday night to give the place to W. F. Coulter, elected to the council on April 12. Carhart expects to sail from San Francisco on June 22, and see everything there is to be seen about the Samoan islands, Tahita, and Melbourne, Australia, and running via the Hawaiian island. He expects to be away from Fullerton about four months. The ex-mayor has always wanted to take this trip ever since he was a boy, but somehow he felt that he could Last week it was reported that Paul Bohannon of Yorba Linda had deserted from the United States navy, but a day or two ago his mother received a letter from an officer stating that Bohannon was on board a warship at New Orleans, and was not a deserter. The officer, of course, regretted that the false report had been given out, etc. The old Weisel residence that used to stand on the corner of Sycamore and Los Angeles streets, has changed its location. It is now standing on North Lemon, just south of Backs & Terry's undertaking parlors, and will be transformed into a rooming house. Misses Sophie and Marie Rumpau went up to Hollywood Saturday to visit their mother, who was seriously ill. Mrs. Laura Resh has returned from Cincinnati, Ohio, where she spent two or three weeks visiting with her mother. A. J. Gamber recently purchased a grocery store in Los Angeles and has moved it to this city. He has fitted up the corner room of his storage warehouse at the corner of Chartres and Los Angeles streets for the store and is now transacting business, carrying everything a good groceryman is supposed to handle. Burleigh Goodrich has secured a suitable building in Brea, and is preparing to open a plumbing shop there. E. H. Hastetter of San Francisco, representative the Intertype corporation, was in Anaheim Monday in the interest of his company. O. A. Mullinix, who sold his drug store to Walter Cadman a couple of years ago and engaged in the ranching business, has returned to his first love, having purchased his former store of the Matee-Gemmel Drug Co., this company having bought it of Cadman about a year ago. The stock was invoiced Tuesday and Mr. Mullinix now has possession, with Walter Cadman in charge as chief lieutenant. A warm welcome will be extended to both Mr. Mullinix and Mr. Cadman by nary senior girl naturally is beginning to vie with the study of literature, science, art and other important subjects taught at the high school. The senior girl may wear any dress of her choice to the baccalaureate sermon. Clarence Halber of Pasadena has taken a lease on the Henning building, Placentia, owned by M. E. Bever of Anaheim and now occupied by the public library, and will open a drug store as soon as he can obtain his stock and fixtures. In the meantime, the building will be remodeled and renovated and put in condition to correspond with the new and up-to-date equipment which Mr. Halber intends to install. The library will probably continue to occupy a part of the room until the Baxter & Lucy building is erected. Mr. Halber has devoted most of his life to the drug business. A man from Los Angeles driving a small auto truck down the El Toro hill Sunday morning, lost control of the machine and it crashed head on into a Stuts car in which were riding Mr. and Mrs. Hill and Mr. and Mrs. George Meyers and daughter Rosie. Their machine was sent over the grade and headed down hill for 20 feet before Mr. Hill could stop it. To the bottom of the hill remained a space of fifty feet. The occupants scrambled out of the car as best they could. Had the machine plunged down to the bottom of the hill no doubt the occupants would have been seriously injured if not killed. The driver of the truck said he lost control of the car and it was either going over the bank himself or plunging into the Stutz. His load of furniture and chicken coops were scattered all around the hill. Carl Pressel has finally announced definite plans for his new building which he is preparing to build at the corner of Clementine and Center streets. The lot is 75x75 and will be covered by a two-story brick building, the lower story to be a garage and auto salesroom, the upper being a hall. This will give the Center street front of that block a solid brick front with the exception of one lot belonging to Theodore Roberts. Mr. Roberts has arranged with Mr. Pressel for a party wall and will build on his lot Carhart expects to sail from San Francisco on June 22, and see everything there is to be seen about the Samoan islands, Tahita, and Melbourne, Australia, and running via the Hawaiian island. He expects to be away from Fullerton about four months. The ex-mayor has always wanted to take this trip ever since he was a boy, but somehow he felt that he could never spare the time until the present. He has read everything he could find about the Samoan islands, including Robert Louis Stevenson's works, and feels pretty well acquainted with the regions which he will visit. Joseph Fissus is undecided whether or not to dispose of his home. He has just received an offer of $200,000 cash for his forty-acre orange and walnut ranch adjoining the city limits on the south. Two hundred thousand dollars is a lot of money, but the property is worth it, measuring its value by its income. FOR SALE—House and lot, 7 rooms and bath; near high school.

No admission will be charged. Brice Cowan, owner of the Orange County Trjangle express, was fined $20 by Justice of the Peace Cox under three charges on which Howard Earle, 197 West Third street, was arrested by Motor Officer Ballard. The arrest of Earle is said to be the first step in a campaign on the part of the county to enforce various state laws regulating automobile trucks. The charges upon which Cowan paid fines were for having no mirror on the truck, for pulling more than two trailers, to-wit, four trailers, and for not having the trucks properly equipped with brakes. The mirror and no brake charges brought fines of $5 each and a fine of $10 was imposed for drawing more trailers than are allowed under the law. Lieut.

A certain brand of patent medicine recommended for various ills was the dope that caused two snakes to grow where none grew before. The city council of a Kansas town has ordered that all sidewalks be carpeted with linoleum in order to save shoe leather. If this plan should be universally adopted it ought to be a great boost for Orange county's linoleum factory. Supervisor Talbert should encourage this move. Miss Edna Leep, cashier of the Pacific Telephone company, was married Thursday morning to Ben Yorba, one of the most prominent young ranchers of northern Orange county. Tryouts for the purpose of selecting students to represent the high school in the Orange county forensic contest were held recently, and the following were chosen: Seniors' oration, Kenneth Goodale; Juniors' essay, Rea Coate; Sopohomores' address, Agnes Harkness; Freshmen's reading, Edna Hineman. An Anaheim candy manufacturer says sugar was quoted to him Tuesday at $22.50 per sack, and it was reported heavy users or speculators were bidding as high as $33 at certain points. A general boycott on sugar might have a salutary effect on the market. An application filed with the railroad commission by the Southern California Edison company asks for authority to issue $5.000,000 of bonds. The application states "that the proceeds from the sale of the bonds will be used to finance additional hydro-electric power developments on the Kern and San Joaquin rivers, and for additions to the transmission and distribution systems of the company."

Miss Edna Leep, cashier of the Pacific Telephone company, was married Thursday morning to Ben Yorba, one of the most prominent young ranchers of northern Orange county.

A wedding breakfast was served at the home of the bride following the ceremony, after which the wedded pair left on a honeymoon trip to Santa Barbara.

Anaheim merchants say the only effect the "wear overalls stunt" has had on the market is to increase the cost of that necessary article to the detriment of the man who is compelled to wear overalls owing to the nature of his work.

A new hotel project is under way at Fullerton, proposed at the last board of trade meeting by Attorney E. J. Marks, when Marks, S. N. Fuller and Ralph Brown were appointed a special committee to ascertain how much money for a hotel could be raised in Fullerton. Marks reported that while the housing situation had eased up somewhat, there is a woeful lack of business locations, and he is of the opinion that a hotel, with business rooms on the main floor, would be a paying porposition from the start.
