YUNGBLUTH The Home of Hart, Schaffner & Marx Clothes “By All Means Get a Fit.” The Anaheim sugar factory will start its campaign tomorrow, and the Los Alamitos factory will begin Saturday. The Santa Ana factory and the Huntington Beach plant began operations Monday. All the plans will run practically 100 days. While the beet tonnage of the county is expected to be as great as it was last year, the total amount of acreage is several thousand acres less. The beets are said to be in good condition and the sugar content is expected to be greater than last season. That the English people know a good orange when they taste it is made sure when the Placentia Mutual Orange Growers' association last week filled an order for another carload of Valencias from there to London, going via the Panama canal to the foreign port. The first shipment to England brought the highest price of any of the Orange county fruit on the boat. Not only on this shipment have the Valencias brought good prices, but the Shamrock brand of the Mutual packing house brought the highest prices on every canal shipment so far this season. Director Sloop and Superintendent Smith, of the Anaheim grammar school district, attended the meeting of the Fullerton trustees Thursday night in relation to the lease of Fullerton land as a site for a new school house for Mexican children. The lease, prepared under the direction of Fullerton trustees was approved by them and taken to Anaheim for the signature of the proper officials. The document recited that they are to have the use of the property for school purposes for 10 years from July 26, 1921, at a rental of $50 per year, payable in advance, with a reservation that after two years the Fullerton trustees may revoke the lease, for cause, on giving a full year's notice of intention to do so. The packing season for the Anaheim citrus houses the past week was very good, although a full week of packing was not made in all of the houses. There are four prominent packing houses in Anaheim, the Anaheim Orange and Lemon association, Anaheim Co-operative, Anaheim Citrus association, and the Stewart Fruit company. The total shipment of the week from these companies was 87 cars. Eastern market reports show that Anaheim fruits are bringing high prices. Forty-five cars of oranges were shipped out of Fullerton last week. This exceeds the week before. No lemon shipments were reported. The American Fruit Growers shipped five cars, the Benchley Fruit Co., 19 cars, and the Placentia Orange Growers' association, 22 cars. The tremendously rapid growth of Anaheim is again evidenced by the building permit total for July when there were 59 permits issued, aggregating $89,850 new constructions. It is remarkable in that it is practically all for new residences, which are now averaging better than one per day. Kept up for the year, this means that Anaheim's population will be increased by more than 400 families in 1921. Total permits for the seven months since January 1 are 259, representing $548,000 new construction. For the eight months since December 1, new building totals within $150,000 of a million which is a big lead over any other city in the county. New building in sight, including the new Kraemer buildings and new city hall, will push Anaheim building permits to an even more flattering figure. The importance of Orange county as an active center as to commercial development and also as to interest of its residents in road matters are points that have influenced the directors of the Automobile Club of Southern California in appointing a second member. Alleging that her husband, Charles C. Jones, of Fullerton, has refused to provide a home for her, that he has the habit of staying out late at night and that he has a mania for visiting billiard rooms, Mrs. Bessie C. Jones has filed suit for divorce in the superior court on the ground of cruelty. According to the complaint, the couple were married at Long Beach, May 4, 1916, and separated July 18, 1921. There is no community property nor are there any children. Mrs. Jones asserts that her husband has continually refused to provide a home for her and himself and insists on living with his relatives at Fullerton. She says that frequently he came home in the small hours of the morning and that she has reason to believe that he was unfaithful. The complaint further alleges that Jones acquired the habit of sending his wife to a picture show while he played billiards. She says that instead of meeting her after the show he would delegate someone else to do it and then continue his billiard games. THE WALNUT CROP The prospects for gathering in a thumping big crop of walnuts from the orchards of the district this fall are getting more definitely certain with the passing of each of these fine growing days. Since the last irrigation of the trees the nuts have been fairly bulging out of their skins, their present stage of development being what is ordinarily expected the middle of August. If you take a look as you go along you will discover they are mighty thick on the trees, too. Taken all together, the situation looks more than promising for a good harvest. Nothing but a visitation of blistering hot weather can stop them. George Strobel is in town this week from Hanford visiting old time acquaintances. George is a prosperous fruit rancher and is spending a brief vacation visiting various points in southern California. Mrs. B. J. Dresser, who has been visiting relatives and friends in Portland, Oregon, for the past two months, returned on Sunday to her home in this city. The day before she left Portland her brother-in-law, John J. Sharkey, was overcome by a stroke of paralysis. Advices from the north are that he is improving and hopes are entertained that he may soon recover his health. The fifth straight game was won by the Anaheim Elks ball team on the Fullerton field Sunday, the Long Beach team again being the victims. Long Beach had previously won three games and lost one and they went into the game Sunday with the determination to win and thus tie Anaheim for first place in the race for the pennant. The beach boys played good ball, but they were up against a better team and lost, the score being 13 to 7. This victory assures Anaheim the pennant in the southern league. The recent celebration of the 76th birthday anniversary of Victor Schumacher, of W. Amerige avenue, Fullerton, was quite a notable event. In honor of the occasion Mr. Schumacher entertained a dozen friends from Los Angeles and twenty-five members of the Concordia Singing society of Anaheim, Mr. Schumacher having organized the society thirty-three years ago and was its first president. A feature of the event was the wonderful dinner prepared by Mr. Schumacher himself, the menu including an astonishing variety of delicacies. The importance of Orange county as an active center as to commercial development and also as to interest of its residents in road matters are points that have influenced the directors of the Automobile Club of Southern California in appointing a second member of the advisory board from this county. D. Eyman Huff, manager of the Hewes corporation, has chosen by unanimous vote of the board to be the second representative of the county on the board. The large and increasing membership of the club in this county and the establishment of three branch offices have brought the club prominently to the attention of the motorists and general public of the county. Huff has accepted the appointment and today was anticipating receipt of definite information as to what obligations the appointment carries with it. With a representative from this immediate section on the board, it will be possible for members, who have matters they would like to bring to the attention of the club, to confer with Huff and have them presented. E. K. Benchley, of Fullerton, is the other Orange county representative on the advisory board. FOR SALE—Peaches and Plums, 4 1-2 and 5c a pound at the ranch. A. G.

Apply Gazette for address. 8-4-2t Anaheim Gazette, fifty-two weeks for $1.50, The office of the police department at the city hall, Fullerton, presented the appearance of a distributing branch for a distillery for awhile last Thursday afternoon, following a raid by the officers which netted them fourteen gallons of some sort of red liquor and the person of one Pedro Guerrero, claiming to be a citizen of Los Angeles. There were nine gallon jugs and twenty quart bottles of the stuff and those who had the temerity to taste it inclined to the opinion that the ma- One Event of Outstanding Importance This Month!

The capture was made down on Ash avenue about 1:30 p.m., the man apparently being about to make delivery to a customer from the Maxwell touring car he was driving. Three or four of the city men had a part in the affair and with a little good fortune, mixed with prompt action, they were able to make what is regarded as one of the most important deals along this line that has come to their notice this year. COULDN'T VAMP THE JUDGE Judge Cox has made it clear that he cannot be swayed by influential overtures. Accompanied by a woman, L. M. Hall, a merchandise broker of Memphis, Tenn., came into Cox's court and presented a little pink 'ticket' which had been handed to the youthful daughter of the woman by a traffic officer. The ticket charged the motorist with cutting a corner near Anaheim. "And how much is the fine, if any?" asked Hall. "Three dollars," said Cox. "Three dollars!" exclaimed Hall. "Why, Judge, this is the girl's first offense. She is a careful driver. There were several automobiles on the corner at the time and she was trying to get by. Besides the 'button' was not in the center of the intersection." "That's the way people get killed," said Cox, "trying to get by. As to that button I'd bet my bottom dollar it is in the right place." "Well, Judge, I'm acquainted with Judge Thomas and Leonard Evans. It was the girl's first offense. She was never arrested before. I wonder if you couldn't 'quash' it" "No siree!" said Cox. "That may go in Los Angeles, but not in this court. No sir, the fine will be three dollars." Hall then paid the fine. Before he left he shook hands with Judge Cox and told him if he ever went to Memphis to look him up. "I like Orange county," he said, "but it's mighty hard on the motorists, particularly the tourist who is not familiar with all of your laws." "Well, you ought to read up on our motor laws," was the rejoinder from Cox. "I wonder what he brought that woman in here for?" asked the judge after the couple had departed. "Why, he brought her in here to vamp you," suggested a spectator. "Prettier women than that one have not done it," said Cox. Deputy District Attorney C. N. Mozley, Charles Swanner and several other persons in the court room congratulated Cox for not being compromised. "They talk them out of it in Los Angeles, but they cant do it here," declared the judge. HIS PART Now, you say, sir," said the lawyer to the witness, "that you personally heard the quarrel between the defendant and his wife." I did." Well, now,' said the lawyer, "suppose you tell us exactly what the defendant seemed to be doing." He was doing the listening."
