Joe Gibson, an oil field employee, went down to Santa Monica last Saturday and came home with a wife. Joe and his bride received a hearty welcome on their arrival. The streets of Anaheim are brilliant with color. Never was the city so gaily decorated as it is at present. Thousands of flags are waving in the breeze from ropes stretched across the streets and most of the business buildings are artistically decorated. C. O. Vanatta and T. L. Hoag have opened up a billiard and pool parlor in the basement of the Wilson & Bever building, formerly the Kroeger building. Two billiard and five pool tables have been installed. The place will be known as the V. & H. pool hall. Harold Alkers and Miss Evelyn McClure were married Saturday at the residence of Rev. A. B. Markle, that gentleman performing the ceremony.

This is a big Paramount-Cosmopolitan picture, filled with mystery, thrills and comedy. The principal roles are played by Matt Moore, Gladys Leslie, George Parsons and Mabel Bert. It is a distinctly worth while picture. It has a lot of good thrills; it bubbles with laughter and fun, it has a lot of real drama mixed up in it, and there's the most surprising little love story running through it that you can imagine. There are three villains—three of them. But two of them are not so black as you think they are, and when the real villain comes to grief you're tickled pink. Vaudeville Friday night. Mr. and Mrs. N. H. Mitchell went up to Los Angeles Monday to meet their daughter-in-law, Mrs. Willis Mitchell, and their little granddaughter, Miss Louise Mitchell, on their return from Europe.

Bill Russell's movie outfit of all-stars defeated the Anaheim Elks ball team at the Commonwealth park Sunday by a two to nothing score. It is believed the two or three dozen female movie stars, who were present to root for the Russell bunch, vamped some of the local boys, which was the reason for their defeat. Next Sunday there will be no game on account of the orange show, but the following Sunday the Russell team will play again with the locals. Mrs. A. E.

Among those present were: Mesdames Homer Ames, J. W. Wallop, F. H. Houck, E. Borchert, F. Zeppenfeld, of Anaheim, and Mrs. Aggee, of Santa Fe Springs. President Harding's speech opening the orange show was routed through San Francisco, Salt Lake, Ogden, Chicago and Pittsburg. It traveled a distance of 3900 miles and had the voice been able to carry that distance without the aid of a wire it would have required five hours' time to reach the audience. By wire the words were heard the instant they were spoken in the white house. Dr. F. W. Slabaugh, county purchasing agent, and other county officials are beginning to "warm up" their plans for the annual picnic of court house officials, deputies and their families.

Shirley Mason, beloved exponent of dainty malds on the screen, will be seen at the Grand tonight in "Wing Toy," a story of the adventures that befell a little white girl who, reared from babyhood by a Chinese foster father, believes that she is an oriental. How fat restores her to her own world is told in a gripping, foreful story, most beautifully staged. It is a William Fox production: "Wing Toy" abounds in thrilling scenes. The mystery and silence of the east are reflected in every line and movement. Friday night Elleen Percy will be seen in "The Blushing Bride," and Saturday night Buck Jones in "The One-Man Trail," will be shown. E. A. White, fruit shipper, of Santa Ana, was exhibiting a Linda avocado Friday weighing 2 3-4 pounds. It is said to be one of the largest ever produced in this section. The fruit was grown on the ranch of D. Oliver at Yorba Linda. Each fruit contained in several shipments made Friday by The Seattle Sunday Times of April 24, contains an article two-columns long, telling of the prowess of Ray Steele, a young baseball phenom. The boy is a grandson of Frank Davis, of this city. He is only thirteen years old, but appears to be some ball player. In a game recently for the school championship of Seattle he occupied the mound, and struck out twenty-two players, and would probably have done better had he not grown weary at the windup of the game. He holds the pitchers' record, and won the championship for his school. Davis appears to think the boy is early exhibiting traits of the grandfather. John C. Cordes returned to his home Saturday after an absence of a couple of weeks, bringing with him a bride, and when friends of the happy couple learned of their arrival they gathered in the vicinity of the Cordes home armed with musical instruments of various kinds, and proceeded to give them a serenade. There was more noise than melody in the concert, but the bride and groom overlooked the lack of harmony among the players, and gave them the glad hand. Mr. Cordes is one of Anaheim's most prominent ranchers, and his wife was Mrs. Marie Baumiller, of Chicago, mother of Mrs. Fritz Kleumer. She spent several months visiting her last fall and winter and made many friends in this city. Harry Blaeholder, of Garden Grove, pitching phenom of Garden Grove, with Gavvy Cravath's Salt Lake Bees, got his first chance Thursday to go the full route on the mound and when the last batter for San Francisco was checked out Salt Lake was at the Long end of a 9 to 0 score.

Mrs. John Hartung came up from Venice Thursday and acted as hostess to the Euchre club, the meeting being held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Edgar Hartung, on Sunkist avenue. Gladiolas and roses were used in the house decorations, and refreshments were served at the close of the games. Mrs. J. Strodthoff was winner of the first prize at cards; Mrs. Shanley, second, and Mrs. Cole, the consolation. Plans have been formulated by members of St. Andrews' Guild of Fullerton for the eventual establishment of an Episcopal church in that community. The diocese has promised a minister for Fullerton every Sunday to co-operate with the local folks affiliated with this faith and Odd Fellows' hall has been engaged for the Sunday services, the first to begin next Sunday evening at 7:30, with Rev. Stevens in charge. There are about 25 Episcopallians registered and they have started a building fund of several hundred dollars to be devoted to church purposes. A lot will eventually be secured and a temporary edifice built as soon as practicable. Officers of St. Andrews' Guild are as follows: President, Mrs. Poore; secretary, Mrs. Stevenson; treasurer, Mrs. Wood. E. A. White, fruit shipper, of Santa Ana, was exhibiting a Linda avocado Friday weighing 2 3-4 pounds. It is said to be one of the largest ever produced in this section. The fruit was grown on the ranch of D. Oliver at Yorba Linda. Each fruit contained in several shipments made Friday by White from the Oliver orchard averaged 2 1-4 pounds. The Oliver trees are young. It is expected that the avocados will bring $2 each. The fruit exhibited by White is 6 inches long. Its circumference is 13 3-4 inches the short way and 14 3-4 inches lengthwise. It is of exceptional size and was photographed by the Santa Ana Chamber of Commerce for use in advertising literature. Miss Jewel Patho and her butterfly girls have been engaged as models for the "style show" to be staged by local merchants, a special feature Wednesday and Thursday nights at the Valencia orange show. The local merchants will show the very latest in ladies ready to wear and go the limit to make this the classiest mid-season style show to be seen anywhere. Sport wear, mid-season dresses, coats, wraps, evening gowns, bathing suits will all be featured. The bathing suits will be distinctly original and unique, especially designed for this show. George H. Prince, chairman of the committee, was in Los Angeles recently making preliminary arrangements and says he was very lucky to secure the services of Miss Jewel Patho and her butterfly girls, as they are all stars in their line and have modeled for the best style shows on the coast. Harry Blaeholder, of Garden Grove, pitching phenom of Garden Grove, with Gavvy Cravath's Salt Lake Bees, got his first chance Thursday to go the full route on the mound and when the last batter for San Francisco was checked out Salt Lake was at the Long end of a 9 to 0 score. The score itself is only part of the sad news for San Francisco. Blaeholder let the heavy hitting Seals down with only four hits and three of these were of the scratch variety. Walsh, Seal third baseman, was the only man to connect solidly with one of Blaeholder's curves and this hit netted him two bases. Schick, San Francisco right fielder, got two safe blows and Crumpler, a relief pitcher, got the fourth safe hit. Blaeholder gave three men free transportation to first base on balls and only one man stole second with him in the box. Joë Bastanchury, prominent rancher in the Fullerton district, is at his home suffering from a broken collar bone, a deep cut in his forehead and in his face, and severe bruises as a result of his car overturning on a sharp curve near the Bastanchury ranch late Sunday evening. He was returning from Los Angeles. Taking a sharp turn with his machine running at fast speed, the car turned turtle and pinned him underneath. When assistance came he was released from his perilous position and an ambulance summoned from Fullerton. He was taken to the office of an Anaheim physician, where his injuries were treated. Later he was removed to his home. Reports from his residence this afternoon were to the effect that he was resting comfortably as could be under the circumstances of his confinement to his bed.

FALKENSTEIN'S ANAHEIM FALKENSTEIN'S ANAHEIM Found guilty of failing to send his daughter, Natalie, to school, Joe Olida, Mexican, under a suspended sentence of 15 days in the county jail, imposed by Justice of the Peace Cox. The case was tried Monday afternoon after Constable Carter and Deputy Sheriff Charles C. Carillo rounded up the defendant. Olida had been informed that his trial was set for 2 p.m. He failed to appear and the officers brought him into court. He explained his daughter had been attending school regularly since his arraignment and that he thought the case was settled. Mrs. Ruby Brooks, city truant officer, and Mrs. Ida Langford, school teacher, testified that the defendant's daughter was absent from her classes about half the time without and valid reason. The Mexican claimed that the services of his daughter were needed at home on some occasions. He said that sometimes she stayed away from school because she was sick. Their applications for probation having been denied by Superior Judge Z. B. West, Adolph Penna and Manuel Ramos, Mexicans, who pleaded guilty to robbing the "Swelldom" store at Placentia last February, left Saturday for San Quentin, where they will serve a prison term of from one to fifteen years. In pronouncing sentence on the two men, Judge West recommended that the prison board fix the term of Penna at five years and the term of Ramos as two years. The latter was said to have been the first to confess to the robbery. Through court interpreter Charles C. Carillo, Judge West learned all of the details incident to the planning and execution of the robbery. About $2000 worth of clothing was taken from the store. The two prisoners were captured in Los Angeles after they had disposed of some of the men's suits which were taken from the store. Three other Mexicans involved in the same robbery have not been caught. BLUE SKY LAW Oil stock salesmen, oil stock holders and in fact persons generally who are interested in stock buying and selling were highly interested in advices received recently showing that the corporation securities law, better known as the "blue sky law," is constitutional according to a decision handed down by the state supreme court. The decision, written by Justice Wilbur and filed in Los Angeles, was handed down in a case involving the sale of oil promotion stock and was an appeal from a decision of the superior court of San Diego county. The lower court found for the district attorney in that county in a suit enjoining him from prosecuting Margaret Truax, who was selling stock for the Imperial Oil, Gas and Refining company. The company in question was alleged to have filed mining claims upon fifty-six quarter sections of land in Imperial county and to have located 35,520 acres for similar purposes. It was brought out that 2,500,000 shares of stock at $1 a share were to be issued but the supreme court found the issue fraudulent and held the valuation placed upon the property was excessive, records showing no known discovery of oil on the land. The corporation was organized under Arizona law. CERTIFICATE OF CO-PARTNERS TRANSACTING BUSINESS UNDER FICTITIOUS NAME The undersigned, Henry M. Adams, Addison C. Bowers, Elmer L.

Drilled to 4150 feet, Chapman No. 6 broke loose about 3 o'clock Saturday afternoon with probably the biggest gas flow of any well so far drilled in the Orange county fields. The crew was not quite ready to bring the well in, being engaged in washing out and being 500 feet from the bottom. However, arrangements had been made to control the well, and it did not "go over the top." It was seen from the first that the well was a big producer but at the start the flow was principally gas. The guage at the well showed a gas pressure of over 600 pounds, and a flow at the rate of ten million cubic feet a day. There was no way of handling the gas, and it was allowed to escape through two pipes, carrying with a comparatively small amount of oil. In a short time, however, traps were set to hold back the gas, and Tuesday the well was flowing oil at the rate of about 3000 barrels a day. Superintendent Brown, of the Union Oil company, had a large force of men working with a view of holding back the gas, so as to give free flow to the oil, and he believed that when this was accomplished the oil production would go considerably higher. Indications are that the well will prove in the long run the best producer of the lease, and probably the best in the eastern field. The undersigned, Henry M. Adams, Addison C. Bowers, Elmer L. Bowers, do hereby certify that they are co-partners engaged in the business of buying, selling, vending and dealing in lumber, lath, sash, doors, windows, lime, cement, roofing materials and other building materials, and conducting a planing mill under the name or designation of Adams-Bowers Lumber Co.
