Anaheim Gazette ESTABLISHED 1870 ISSUED EVERY THURSDAY Henry Kuchel, Editor and Proprietor SUBSCRIPTION PER YEAR ... $1.50 SIX MONTHS ... $1.00 THREE MONTHS ... $ .50 Entered at the Anaheim Postoffice as second-class matter OFFICIAL CITY PAPER TRAINED LEGISLATOR FOR THE WHITE HOUSE With the election of Warren G. Harding to the presidency, government by theory and intuition will give place to government by experienced experts, based on proved principles of sound national management. Instead of a professor from an institution of learning seeking to apply to the federal government the dogmas of a college curriculum we shall have a trained legislator and executive who will conform his administration to the lessons he has learned during a term in the United States senate preceded by two years as lieutenant governor of his state and four years as a member of the Ohio senate. When Senator Harding enters the White House on March 4th next he will have completed six years service as a senator from his state—six years of apprenticeship for the work of federal administrator. As never before in the history of the country, the past seven years have demonstrated how necessary it is that the chief executive shall have had that previous acquaintance with the legislative branch grand knight of the Los Angeles council, for the first annual "get together outing" of the Knights of the Southland, their families and friends. General headquarters will be maintained at the Island Villa, the unique tent city of the magic island. The Catalina chamber of commerce and the Catalina Island company are cooperating with the entertainment committee of the joint councils of the Knights in the arrangement of an elaborate outdoor sport program for the week's excursion. Tennis and golf tournaments at the Catalina Country Club, aquatic sports, special excursions to the isthmus, and around the island, with fish and wild goat barbacue dinners, are to be part of the general program. Varied form of locomotion are promised to be at the disposal of the knights: saddle horses, luxurious limosines, trim sailing vessels, speedy motorboats, and steamers. Those desiring something with a little more "nick" or thrill may have their choice of riding either the gasoline "goat," a novel steed found climbing the mountain trails of Catalina, or taking a trip through the clouds via hydroplane. Tugs-of-war between competing teams in row boats, human fishing contests, tuna or sword fish angling for blue blooded sportsmen, swimming and motor boat races are planned by Fred Huesmann, chairman of the general sports committee. Grand Knight Leo M. Rosecrans of Los Angeles council is the president in charge of the excursion and chairman of the general executive committee; Arthur C. Verge, grand knight of Santa Monica council, is treasurer; Leon Crawford of Los Angeles council, is secretary; James P.

As never before in the history of the country, the past seven years have demonstrated how necessary it is that the chief executive shall have had that previous acquaintance with the legislative branch of the government indispensable to a proper appreciation of his relations to it. Mr. Wilson's complete failure to comprehend the point of view of congress, and his refusal to concede to the duly elected representatives of the people the part the Constitution decreed that they shall play in national affairs, have been responsible for the almost constant friction that has existed between them. The cost to the people of that lack of coordination can never be expressed in dollars and cents, but it has been enormous; and, in addition, national prestige has suffered a setback that will require the most careful attention from a republican administration to repair. Not only has Senator Hardiny learned in the school of experience of the relations between the executive and legislative branches that must be maintained if our government is to continue to express the popular will as our forefathers provided in the Constitution, but he has learned to respect the opinions of his fellow senators and of others chosen by the people to represent their views. It is here again that the Wilson administration has signally failed to perform its allotted part in our scheme of government. It has been totally impossible for the Wilson type of mind to conceive that it is not infallible, and to realize that the views of the people can be more nearly expressed through the composite expression of their leaders than through the utterances of a single individual. He has been a one-man government, uninfluenced by the opinions of accepted authorities. Every act of the senate, and of congress, necessarily is a compromise product—a composite of the thought of the members who compose the majority of that body. It is not too much to say that an act of importance never passes the senate that is entirely acceptable to any senator. Every senator has surrendered some of his perilous blooded sportsmen, swimming and motor boat races are planned by Fred Huesmann, chairman of the general sports committee. Grand Knight Leo M.

Hughes, financial secretary of Los Angeles council, has charge of the transportation for all councils. OUR TRADE BALANCE Since the beginning of the World war, in 1914, the United States has rolled up a trade balance of approximately $17,000,000,000 against the world. This exceeds by several billions of dollars the total balance in favor of the United States from 1875 to 1914. Department of commerce figures today show that the trade balance in favor of the United States in the fiscal year ending in 1914, one month before the war began, was only $470,000,000. During the first year of the war it was $1,094,419,600 and in the next year it was $2,135,599,375. During the succeeding year the total was $3,530,693,209. Meantime the United States has entered the struggle and in the year ending June 30, 1918—the first full fiscal year of America's participation—the balance was only $2,974,055,973. In thenext year, ending last June 30, it was $4,136,562,618. During the first eleven months of this fiscal year the balance was only $2,788,411,601, but exports were larger in those eleven months than in any other full fiscal year in the nation's history, totaling $7,474,192,349, against the previous twelve months' record of $7,252,282,686, made during the last fiscal year. At the same time that America's export trade began to advance rapidly the import trade also showed an enormous increase, reaching a new high record of $4,686,741,747 during the eleven months of the present fiscal year. The previous high record was $3,095,720,068 last year. Most of the favorable trade balance of the United States has been against the allied and neutral countries of Europe. gle individual. He has been a one-man government, uninfluenced by the opinions of accepted authorities. Every act of the senate, and of congress, necessarily is a compromise product—a composite of the thought of the members who compose the majority of that body. It is not too much to say that an act of importance never passes the senate that is entirely acceptable to any senator. Every senator has surrendered some of his personal preferences in order that the act may become a law, and in that surrender he has admitted his own fallibility and recognized that the voice of the many is more likely correct than his own individual opinion. That is the school in which Senator Harding's conception of popular government has been formed, and to those tenets he will hold the executive department once he has taken control. His cabinet will be composed of men of recognized authority in the problems of their particular department, selected to act as real aids to the president in the performance of his duties, rather than to furnish plausible support for executive opinions already made known. President Harding will personify te policies adopted by the republican party as a whole and embodied in its national platform, and in the carrying out of those policies the country will witness the closest cooperation with his official advisers and with his party associates in congress.

Meredith, Secretary of Agriculture, Has a Few Words to Say I want to say just a few words to the farm boys and farm girls, and the older people need not bother to read it at all. Now, you and I know that the boys' and girls' club work represents one of the most important lines of agricultural activity in the United States today. I believe it is important because it has such large possibilities. We men and women who are trying to improve farming and farm life will be out of the game when you boys and girls are just reaching the prime of life. You have the advantage of us, because you are learning the principles of good agriculture and home making while you are still young enough to learn to the best advantage and to apply in a practical way the knowledge thus gained throughout your whole lives. Even as boys and girls you are accomplishing more good than can be measured. The good that you will be able to do will increase as you grow ANAHEIM GAZETTE commerce company are entertainment units of the moment of an program for tennis and Catalina arts, special and around wild goat be part of are promisal of the curious limbs, speedy Those delight more their choice nine "goat," the mount-taking a trip troopplane. competing fishing conningling for swimming and by Fred the generalosecrans of the president and chair-ove commit-1 knight of treasurer; Angeles coun- P. Hughes. older and, when you become full-grown men and women, you can supply for the agricultural forces of the nation a leadership such as the world has never known before. I congratulate the boys' and girls' club members. And I would like to ask a favor of the boys and girls who are not members of the clubs. We are trying—the United States department of agriculture, the state agricultural colleges, and a great many other people—to make the farms of this country more profitable and home life on the farm more pleasant. I wish the rest of you boys and girls would join with those who are already members of the clubs and help us in accomplishing this great service for our common country. It is a patriotic thing to do; and it is a service that cannot be rendered by anybody except you boys and girls. The year 1920 should be the biggest year in the history of boys' and girls' club work—and I am confident that it will be. The county is facing a difficult situation because so many men have left the farms to work in the city. The good work that the club boys and girls can do will help to overcome that handicap—and the club boys an dgirls will that kind of work this year. It may hearten you to know that many of us here in the department of agriculture look upon the boys' and girls' clubs much as Caesar must have looked upon the Tenth Legion or Napoleon upon the Old yuard. The other forces may fail, bot we know that we can rely on you. I might not be willing to see you undertake such serious service if I did not know that, while you work hard, you play joyously together. I am sure that the boys and girls in the clubs GOOD BREAD IS OUR MOST IMPORTANT FOOD Only Low-Priced Good Foodstuff on the Market Did you ever consider what an important place bread holds in your diet? People are eating more bread now than ever before, and will eat more in time to come. Bread is the most essential of all foods, and people are beginning to realize that good bread is now the only low-priced good food. And because bread is our principal food its quality and wholesomeness is a matter of concern to everybody. Make up your mind right now that your next bread order will be for the best bread on the market. There is never any doubt about getting the best if you order Dresser's White Lily Bread—at all the leading grocers or at the Bakery.—Adv. OLD TIME SOCIAL AT METHODIST CHURCH Much Amusement Afforded by Costumes of Some of the Characters The ladies' aid society of the Methodist church gave an old time social at the church Tuesday evening when the following characters were portrayed. Much merriment was enjoyed because of the make-up of some of the participants. The characters and the persons who portrayed them are as follows: Grandmother: Mrs. Calkins. Mother: Mrs. Joyce. (Bible in hand.) Father: Mr. Tedrick. (Umbrella in hands.) Aunt Pauliny: Mrs. Allen. (Mole on her nose.) Uncle John: Mr. Phillips. (Stern) PLENTC OF TEACHERS While surrounding counties are having considerable difficulty in securing the necessary teachers for next year, according to reports reaching R. P. Mitchell, Orange county school superintendent, this county is particularly fortunate in this respect and at the present time there are only two vacancies in the rural schools of the county. Teachers have not yet been secured for the Serra and Silverado schools. "These are both one-teacher schools," said Mitchell, "and there may be some difficulty in getting teachers for these places, but the schools in the more thickly populated communities have all the teachers they need. There is one vacancy at San Juan Capistrano at the present time, but there are several applicants for the place," Mitchell said. Mitchell said that vacancies created in the city school at the close of the present year by the resignation of teachers will be filled without any difficulty. He said that since the close of the school year many applications for places in this county have gone through his office and that more are being received every day. According to reports reaching Mitchell, Imperial county is harder hit on the teaching question than any other county in Southern California. He said that the larger schools of the valley county are not having much difficulty but that the rural schools may be forced to close during the coming year because of a lack of teachers. Mitchell says that many teachers would rather follow some other line of work than to accept a position in a rural school and especially in a one- THE VICTORY MEDAL President Wilson has received the first "Victory Medal," an emblem which will be issued to "all those entitled to it who served in the World War between April 6, 1917, and Armistice Day, November 11, 1918." The distribution has begun. The medal will be given without cost of any kind to 4,765,000 troops, as that was the number estimated as having been in the army from the declaring of war to the truce of November 11, 1918. The official statement says: "This medal of beautifully toned bronze was designed by the celebrated American sculptor, James Earl Frazer of New York, under the supervision of the commission of fine arts. In addition to the medal, there have been designed thirteen combat or major operation clasps and a defensive sector clasp which go on the ribbon with the medal, and also five overseas service clasps for troops not entitled to battle clasps." Mrs. Ellie Callaus, wife of Gustave Callaus of Irvine, died at the Anaheim sanitarium Tuesday. The remains were taken to Santa Ana where funeral services were held in St. Joseph's church. The Los Angeles presbytery was in session at the Presbterian church in this city Tuesday and Wednesday. The district includes Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego and Imperial counties and ministers were present from many cities in the district.

I am sure that the boys and girls in the clubs have better times than the boys and girls who are not in the clubs, and that is an additional compensation to you for the hard work you do in the club work.

Anaheim has been a long time in the building, but she has built well. With her miles of well paved streets and cement sidewalks leading everywhere, 3 and 4 story buildings with modern equipment, many churches with their tall spires and costly furnishings, an up to date library filled with the latest and best periodicals and publications, schools of established merit, amusement houses, and three live newspapers, makes this city of 10,000 people feel the prosperity that is rightly theirs. The earliest pioneers of Southern California came to Anaheim, but the land was new, and much of the country between here and the sea was unreclaimed. Across this willow dotted waste, the waters had ceased to flow—a tiny clump of tules found a foothold, then long days passed, and nights, when the stars kept vigil with the moon—but the pioneer settler at Anaheim never wearied of the long wait. One of the most modern equipped "Sun Kist" packing houses in the state is located here—also one of the great sugar refineries.

Miss Lela Steadman is ill at her home on Broadway with the mumps. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Carroll and Miss Irma Steadman of this city and Mr. and Mrs. Will Coulter of Fullerton left on Monday for Yosemite valley, making the trip in Joseph Carroll's machine. They expect to be gone about two weeks. Miss Anna Ryan and Miss Beryl Kennedy who have been residing in Los Angeles during the school year where the latter attended the University of Southern California, have returned to their home, Ramona Villa, where they will spend the summer vacation. Life is just one damned thing after another. Resident in the northeast section of town were just recovering their equilibrium after the earthquake shock Monday evening, and were settling down to peaceful slumber, when the Sabbath stillness of the night was rudely shattered by a hideous noise that broke suddenly and without previous warning. Human voices, in bass, baritone, tenor and soprano, mingled with the music of tom-toms, tin whistles, automobile horns and other instruments of torture, and the merry din continued for an hour or more. It was only a charivari party serenading the newlyweds, Mr. and Mrs. John Kirsch. Anaheim Gazette per year, $1.50, payable in advance. District School Teacher: Sammy Walker. Mary Jane: Mrs. Wagner.

The second part was in the basement where refreshments were enjoyed and those who had the faculty of getting acquainted had the time of their lives. The program in the auditorium was in the form of an old-time album. A life-size album was constructed to look like the parlor-table kind. As Mrs. Hatcher recited the virtues and dis-virtues of the various pictures come to life she would open the cover of the big life-size album and the character she would be describing portraed by the person's named above. The costuming and the facial expressions were surpassing good; they were JUST like old-time photos one will find in albums kept by two or three generations ago. The one who managed the details of the costuming of the local people who took part had an eye for correctness of detail. It is hoped the event will be repeated on a more auspicious occasion. Across this window dotted waste, the waters had ceased to flow—a tiny clump of tules found a foothold, then long days passed, and nights, when the stars kept vigil with the moon—but the pioneer settler at Anaheim never weared of the long wait. One of the most modern equipped "Sun Kist" packing houses in the state is located here—also one of the great sugar refineries. The golden lime trees run their glittering miles of rich harvest in the sun. Thousands of trees bathed in a shimmering coat of green—rear their heads to the skies like magic spears, and bring to Anaheim an undreamed of burden of wealth. Located on the main lines of two great railways, the Southern Pacific and the Santa Fe—the State Highway, and branch boulevards, radiating everywhere, but 16 miles from the ocean, and the mountains only a stones throw away, Anaheim has a location both unusual and unique. While, fifty years ago, Anaheim was not the blooming paradise it is today, the basic requirements were there. As a proof of this, what was then a waving expanse of wild mustard is today one of the richest, best improved and most prosperous districts in America. Many factors were to be considered carefully. Climate, soil, water, location and general living conditions were all to be weighed, each by itself and then as a composit whole, and the location which graded the nearest to perfection was to be their future home. A state-wide search was made and from all this wondrous coast paradise to select from the present site of the City of Anaheim was chosen. To the stranger who has never been in Anaheim, especially the stranger from the east, it will be impossible to convey an adequate picture of Anaheim and the rich surrounding dis- NEW GRAND THEATRE Wednesday and Thursday, June 23 and 24, A THOMAS H.

It is possible to give facts and figures which will prove Anaheim's wonderful prosperity, but even such facts cannot make one conceive the real picture. First, one should try to imagine an endless stretch of ever green citrus groves with golden oranges and lemons dotting the green—here and there a grove of walnuts with their widespread branches—all producing wealth for their owners which seems unbelievable to the easterner. Over the whole district fine boulevards radiate in every direction with beautiful homes nestled among the flowers, which run riot the entire year. And then picture this wonderfully business houses scintillate with an atmosphere of prosperity. There is no business in the world more healthful and interesting than the raising of oranges. Neither is there any business of similar investment more profitable than orange growing in that section of California where conditions are naturally and abundantly present for the successful and economical raising of a high grade of fruit. Not all orange groves are profitable and not all sections where you see orange trees growing are adapted to the successful production of fruit from a commercial standpoint. In some sections of the orange belt of California, in recent years, smudge pots were fired BEST CITY IN STATE ETERN TOURIST OR PER VISIT TO ANAHEIM REVELATION Of this favored section for the shadows of a city only a few realize it.

The golden their glittering miles First, one should try to imagine an endless stretch of ever green citrus groves with golden oranges and lemons dotting the green—here and there a grove of walnuts with their widespread branches—all producing wealth for their owners which seems unbelievable to the easterner. Over the whole district fine boulevards radiate in every direction with beautiful homes nestled among the flowers, which run riot the entire year. And then picture this wonderfully beautiful country bathed in the sheen of an ever constant California sunshine—practically every day of the year—and you have a picture of the Anaheim district. In the very mids of this wealth of beauty and prosperity lies the City of Anaheim, "The Best Little City in the State." You will never know Anaheim until you see it. Anaheim has a snap and bustle and sparkle which one senses the moment he passes through the business section. Anaheim has several strong marketing associations. The Randolph Marketing Company, Anaheim Walnut Growers' Association, Anaheim Citrus Fruit Association, Anaheim Orange Growers' Association, Independent Packing Company and Stewart Fruit Company, employ about 400 people. There are eleven churches, two denominational schools and four public schools in the City of Anaheim. The churches are well attended and many of them own their own beautiful houses of worship. As for the schools, no city of its size in the state boasts better schools. The Anaheim Union High School alone cost in excess of $125,000. Constant sunshine and ocean breezes make a combination hard to beat. "Spring Eternal" is the slogan of Orange County, and it is literally a fact in Anaheim. Every day in the year is growing weather and practically every day is an "out-door" day. The Anaheim Board of Trade is a live organization and maintained for the purpose of locating the manufacturer, homeseeker or tourist. The average rainfall for the past ten years has been about 14 inches and the rainy season is confined to the winter months, coming principally in December, January and February. During the other nine months of the year the rainfall is practically negligible. Anaheim has a population of 9,000 in the city proper and it is hard to determine where the city confines stop, for the entire district is a city of homes and small estates, the owners any business or similar investment more profitable than orange growing in that section of California where conditions are naturally and abundantly present for the successful and economical raising of a high grade of fruit. Not all orange groves are profitable and not all sections where you see orange trees growing are adapted to the successful production of fruit from a commercial standpoint. In some sections of the orange belt of California, in recent years, smudge pots were fired night after night to keep the fruit from freezing. This great handicap of expense cost them an average of a hundred and thirty-five dollars per acre. In the frostless section around Anaheim the orange growers did not fire any smudge pots; in fact, this is something they never find it necessary to do. You will find no smudge pots in the Anaheim district. The total cost per year for the care of the average orange grove in the Anaheim district is not more than $67.50 per acre—one-half what it costs for smudging alone in less favored sections of the state. There is an immense sugar factory in Anaheim which manufactures thousands of tons of sugar annually. Also a large beef and provision company, an ice and cold storage company, steam laundry, large cigar factory, a large brewery and Crawford's marmalade factory, which ships its product all over the nation. These industries alone employ over 1,000 people at good wages. The city has an excellent street lighting system, with ornamental lights in the business district. Natural gas is cheap and plentiful and there is an abundance of pure water for domestic use, manufacturing purposes and for irrigation. The stability and prosperity of the citrus industry in the United States, especially in California and particularly in the Anaheim district is primarily due to the fact that the citrus fruit growers are better organized than other agricultural industries. Anaheim is particularly well equipped to take care of the harvesting and packing of the oranges raised here, having several co-operative associations, each with its packing plant. The English walnut has found such congenial conditions in the cool, moist climate of Orange County that over two million dollars' worth of the wholesome nuts are produced annually. Within the last few years the walnut industry has been enhanced nearly one Anaheim has a population of 9,000 in the city proper and it is hard to determine where the city confines stop, for the entire district is a city of homes and small estates, the owners of which are, as far as business relations are concerned, a part of Anaheim, although not numbered to her credit in the census tabulation. Anaheim is located in the northern part of Orange county—"Nature's Prolific Wonderland"—27 miles from Los Angeles and but 15 miles from the blue Pacific, with its cooling and invigorating breezes. The central location of Anaheim, her excellent railroad facilities, her network of highways to every portion of Southern California and an abundant supply of pure water and natural gas, together with a year-round climate, makes Anaheim the ideal location for new manufacturing enterprises. Every inducement will be held out to the manufacturer seeking an ideal location. Anaheim is a transportation center, being served by the Santa Fe, Southern Pacific. The city is also on the State Highway, El Camino Real (The Kings Highway), which connects Anaheim with Los Angeles, San Diego and her nearby sister cities as well as all of the State of California. No community of its size in America can boast a more modern city. Up-to-date fireproof business blocks are the rule, banks and stores which would be a credit to a city of ten times its size, miles of paved streets and an air of cleanliness everywhere. Business is good in Anaheim—the very smallest other agricultural industries. Anaheim is particularly well equipped to take care of the harvesting and packing of the oranges raised here, having several co-operative associations, each with its packing plant. The English walnut has found such congenial conditions in the cool, moist climate of Orange County that over two million dollars' worth of the wholesome nuts are produced annually. Within the last few years the walnut industry has been enhanced nearly one hundred fold by the introduction of new varieties and new methods of cultivation. In the vicinity of Anaheim they are now planting almost exclusively, new and tested varieties, with the assurance of a regular income, not only for the growers, but for their children and children's children. Forty thousand acres are devoted to bean culture in Orange County and the $2,000,000 coming from this crop adds much to home life conditions and the automobile dealer smiles when the bean harvest begins. Anaheim is a good city to live in or to invest money in. In California, Anaheim is known as a "live one." Seeing is believing and Anaheim will welcome the new arrival. To the tourist or homeseeker, Anaheim will be a revelation. Low cost of living midst beautiful surrounding, splendid stores, pure water and modern living conditions, make Anaheim the Home City par-excellence. Modern hotels, apartment houses and homes ready for occupancy, together with fine roads for motoring and the ocean and other scenic attractions close by, make the city a mecca for the tourist. Judge Howard, Jimmie Howard and Gene Adams spent last week at Gilman Springs where they took the baths.
