SANTA CLAUS TO REMEMBER ALL CHILDREN COMMUNITY SERVICE COUNCIL ARRANGING FOR TWO CHRIST MAS TREES One Entertainment to Be Given in the City Park December 22, Another in the Mexican District the Following Evening—Elks Will Also Give Their Annual Entertainment to the Kiddies—None to Be Forgotten By Santa Claus This Year. Santa Claus is making preparations for his annual visit to Anaheim, and this year he is determined that no children will be slighted in the distribution of presents. Some, of course, will receive more and costlier presents than others, but all will be remembered, provided they attend one of the festivities now in preparation. spreads more sunshine and does more real good than all those put together who give because it is the custom to give at Christmas time. And another great attribute of the cheerful giver is that he does not confine his giving to the holiday time alone, but keeps it up throughout the entire year, scattering a little sunshine here, a little cheerfulness there, never passing up a single chance to give charity workers a boost from his purse, and no one ever goes to him in need and comes away empty handed and sore in heart. It pleases him to give to the needy, and his pleasure radiates to those that receive, and imparts to them new hope and a new and greater aspiration to regain the lost grip on the material and spiritual life. Give all that you can, but above all give it cheerfully. DISTINGUISHED JURIST'S PLEASANT CALL Judge Hutton, of Los Angeles, Makes Very Agreeable Visit to City Judge A. W. Hutton, of Los Angeles, his sister-in-law, Mrs. J. C. Travis, of Esperanza, and his daughter, Mrs. D. A. Singleton, of this city, made a very pleasant call at this office some days ago. Judge Hutton is Santa Claus is making preparations for his annual visit to Anaheim, and this year he is determined that no children will be slighted in the distribution of presents. Some, of course, will receive more and costlier presents than others, but all will be remembered, provided they attend one of the festivities now in preparation. The Elks, as usual, have raised a generous fund which will be expend, ed in gifts for the little folks and substantials for needy families, and several other societies have combined to give two entertainments, one for the white children and one for the Mexicans. These will be given under the direction of the Community Service Christmas tree council, of which T. L. DeCew is chairman. Representatives of various lodges, met at Mr. DeCew's Lexington garage Friday evening for the purpose of making arrangements for these entertainments. Representatives were present from the Chamber of Commerce, the Rotary club, the Kiwanis club, the Lions' club, Knights of Columbus, American Legion, Concordia, Delphian society, Ebell society, Eastern Star, Rebekahs and Business and Professional Woman's club. It was decided to give two Christmas entertainments, one at the city park on Friday evening. December 22, and the other among the Mexican population in the north part of town on the following evening. The exact location of this tree was left to a committee. A committee, appointed to prepare and trim the trees is composed of the following: Miss Ruth Grim, chairman; Mrs. Nellie Terry, Mrs. H. H. Benjamin, Miss Hannah Horowitz, Miss Frances Adams. Finance committee and gift committee were also appointed, the various societies being represented. All lodges, societies and clubs are invited to participate in these entertainments, and assist in making Christmas time a happy time for all the children in the city and vicinity. The Community Choral society and the high school band have volunteered their services. The Christmas carols will be sung by the society, and appropriate music rendered by the band. While the presents these trees will yield will not be as costly and beautiful as some Santa Claus will leave at the homes of the more fortunate DISTINGUISHED JURIST'S PLEASANT CALL Judge Hutton, of Los Angeles, Makes Very Agreeable Visit to City Judge A. W. Hutton, of Los Angeles, his sister-in-law, Mrs. J. C. Travis, of Esperanza, and his daughter, Mrs. D. A. Singleton, of this city, made a very pleasant call at this office some days ago. Judge Hutton is an old-time personal friend of the writer, and it was a great pleasure to meet him and his accompanying relatives. He is probably the foremost lawyer in southern California, having been in active practice of the law in Los Angeles for more than fifty years. He is the most eminent authority on irrigation law in the state of California, and in all of the law suits of the Anaheim Union Water company and the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation company has been their counsel and has been uniformly successful in defending their properties and water rights from assault by persons and corporations in the upper valley. He has been associated in many of the most famous cases ever tried in southern California and has been uniformly successful in winning his cases. In his seventy-fifth year he still practices his profession and is hale and hearty as a man half his age. Mrs. Travis is the daughter of the late Don Prudencio Yorba, one of the pioneers of Orange county and is the grand-daughter of Don Antonio Yorba, who came here as the head of this distinguished family three generations ago. She is a lady of many rare qualities of mind and heart and has many warm personal friends throughout southern California who are always delighted to meet her. Mrs. Singleton is a popular member of our local society and it is always a great pleasure to meet her and her relatives. THE DIVORCE MILL The divorce mill ground busily in Orange county courts Friday afternoon, when six interlocutory decrees were granted by default in the two courts. Alma Johnson was granted an interlocutory decree of divorce from Frank Johnson, of Huntington Beach, when a witness testified that the husband had told him his wife was too old-fashioned, that he was a "fast All southern Californians drenched by a general past several days are that the story for yet a few more days in Anaheim up to the usually heavy, being mired in the precipitation of last same date.

While the presents these trees will yield will not be as costly and beautiful as some Santa Claus will leave at the homes of the more fortunate children of the community, it is promised that there will be something for every child. None will go away disappointed. December is the happiest month of the year. The month of Christmas and the annual visit of old Santa Claus, and the weeks before his coming we happily spend in preparations to make others happy. If there are those who cannot find happiness in this, then they are indeed to be pitied. There is much that could be curtailed from the Christmas preparations that seem a waste of time and great expenditure of money, but it is for each to say and spend in a manner that gives the greatest pleasure, individually and collectively, and far be it from those who get the fullest enjoyment out of the least expenditure of money to criticise those whose greatest pleasures come from the purchase of expensive gifts and entertaining elaborately. It is a time when we should all be satisfied and happy and honestly endeavor to make others feel in the same mood. From giving to others comes the fullest measure of happiness, and from the spirit in which we give comes our greatest reward. If we give grudgingly and selfishly—simply to follow the custom of the season—then we have but imparted whatever material benefit our gift will be to whom we give. The cheerful giver is the greatest of all humanity and THE DIVORCE MILL The divorce mill ground busily in Orange county courts Friday afternoon, when six interlocutory decrees were granted by default in the two courts. Alma Johnson was granted an interlocutory decree of divorce from Frank Johnson, of Huntington Beach, when a witness testified that the husband had told him his wife was too old-fashioned, that he was a "fast and furious guy" and that his wife was too slow for him. This statement was said to have been made at a party at Long Beach, to which Johnson is said to have brought another woman than his wife. In another case the husband was granted a divorce from his wife because he said, she insisted on going riding every night with her employer, and was so occupied in selling oil stock that she could not attend to her home duties. The plaintiff husband in this case stated his wife's employer called one evening to take her out in his car and that as her husband, he refused to let her go, telling her she was going out too much. His wife than stated that she would do as she pleased, he was not her boss. Upon hearing this statement, the irate husband went outside and beat up the waiting oil stock salesman and sent him home with two blackened eyes, witnesses said. DOCTOR TAKES SKINS FOR USE AT MISSION The many friends of Dr. William A. Key, especially those who are interested in missionary work, will be pleased to hear of his securing the appointment in the Grenfell mission at St. Anthony, Newfoundland. He sailed from New York Saturday and expects to arrive there about the 24th of December. In a letter just received by his mother Key, Placentia avenue preparations for them and will take rather fit than he would caps, mitts, skils, included. Though Dr. up at the Bellevue York, he was released because of this etiquity. It is not known will stay at the Lab. Before leaving Sanago, Dr. Key heard fell speak and read never expecting to although he was greeted. The biggest coward is afraid to do right. AHEIM GAZETY Anaheim, California, Thursday, December 14, 1922 PROTECTION TALK STIMULATED BY STORM WORK ON RIVER PAST SUMMER EXPECTED TO PREVENT FLOODS Rainfall Unusually Heavy for This Date—Melting Snow and Rains in the Mountains Cause High Water Up the River—A. A. Mills Calls for Contributions to Complete the Anaheim, Richfield District Work. All southern California has been drenched by a generous rain during the past several days, and the indications are that the storm will continue for yet a few more days. The rainfall in Anaheim up to this date is unusually heavy, being more than double the precipitation of last year to the same date. This presages an unusually wet season, although old-timers THOMAS STRAIN DOING VERY WELL Loses $100,000 in Oil Well—Has More Money Now Than Ever Before Thomas Strain, of Placentia, was a business visitor in town this week, and spent some time meeting up with old friends and acquaintances. Mr. Strain has the distinction of having lost more money in a single oil well than probably any other man in the county. Several years ago he sank an oil well on his Placentia ranch to a depth of 4200 feet, and while he had strong indications of oil and gas, an inflow of water necessitated its abandonment. This well cost him $100,000, yet while he sustained this great loss, he states he has more money at the present moment than at any time in his career. He owns 400 acres of valuable Valencia orange land at Placentia, which in itself is worth several times the amount sunk in the oil well. He is sturdy and athletic in his seventy-fifth year, and is actively engaged on his ranch every day. He is a strict vegetarian and attributes this fact to his splendid physical condition. When 11 years of age, back in the old country, his brother passed away of tuberculosis, and he heard the doctor say that Tom would be the mended business. FOUR HUNDRED DELEGATES TO STATE CONVENTION VISIT THIS CITY Given a Feed at the Elks' Club House, Where Excellent Entertainment is Provided—Several Good Speeches Made by Visitors—Tony Friend Gives Exhibition of Spanish Dancing and Schmidt-Fellinge Orchestra Treat Visitors to Good Music. While the annual convention of the California Real Estate association was held at Santa Ana, the entire county joined in entertaining the 500 visitors who came from all sections of the state, and who declared at the close that it was the most enjoyable convention ever held in the west. One of the pleasant features of the trip to Anaheim for All southern California has been drenched by a generous rain during the past several days, and the indications are that the storm will continue for yet a few more days. The rainfall in Anaheim up to this date is unusually heavy, being more than double the precipitation of last year to the same date. This presages an unusually wet season, although old-timers state prophecies are uncertain when the weather is concerned. The storm began last Wednesday evening and has continued intermittently since, the fall up to yesterday morning for the storm being 2-50. There is considerable water in the river now, and persons of short memories are beginning to remember the overflows of former years, and wondering if the protection work of the past summer is ample to prevent a recurrence of the damaging floods. Up the river, near the headwaters, it is said, floods have already occurred, caused partially by the melting snow, but it is hoped that the check dam system, a small portion of which has been completed, will bottle up sufficient of the mountain water to prevent overflows in the low lands. When the work planned by the three counties of Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino is completed the people of Orange county can rest assured that there will be no more floods. The break in the river bank west of this city which caused an inundation last winter, has been effectually plugged by the work of the Anaheim protection district, and 'it' is declared that no danger is apprehended from that section hereafter. The work of the Anaheim-Richfield district, which is an extension of the Anaheim district, is not yet completed, but probably will be in a short time, as the rains will stimulate people who have heretofore been indifferent to help in the work. A. A. Mills, who has been active in organizing the district and assisting in the work, says: "Members of the committee, which has charge of this work are pushing it to the limit and a very substantial class of protection, consisting of piles faced with hog wire in front and a six-foot embankment with brush between them, is being put in. One tier of brush and willow trees, with roots on them, is planted in the trench with the wire and piles. "There has been more or less water present moment than at any time in his career. He owns 400 acres of valuable Valencia orange land at Placentia, which in itself is worth several times the amount sunk in the oil well. He is sturdy and athletic in his seventy-fifth year, and is actively engaged on his ranch every day. He is a strict vegetarian and attributes this fact to his splendid physical condition. When 11 years of age, back in the old country, his brother passed away of tuberculosis, and he heard the doctor say that Tom would be the next. He decided to fool the doctor, and went immediately upon a vegetarian diet. He is a pioneer of the Placentia country, and is held in high esteem by all who have the happiness to know him." MABEE IN TRAINING FOR HARD TUSSEL Will Wrestle for Light Heavyweight Championship Tuesday Night Roy Mabee, Anaheim's wrestling farmer, took a whirl at Cliff Naylor, Salt Lake City husky, Monday, as a part of the stiff training he is undergoing in preparation for his world's light heavyweight championship match with A.J. Santel. Mabee's match with Santel will be held in the Fairyland theatre, Tuesday, December 19. A large gatering was present at the workout and it was the general opinion that Mabee is in better condition that ever before. Naylor proved a good training partner as long as his wind lasted, but finally had to go down under the Anaheim farmer's aggressiveness. Wrestling fans of southern California are looking forward with considerable interest to Mabee's match with Santel. Santel has held the world's title for approximately ten years and is considered virtually unbeatable. This is Mabee's first try at the championship title, but he feels confident that he will bring fame to Anaheim when the referee says "go." The winner of the Mabee.Santel match will have an opportunity to wrestle Pete Sauer, contender for the world's title, in the Philharmonic auditorium, Los Angeles, some time soon after the first of the year. A large purse has been offered for this match so both Mabee and Santel are eager to win next Tuesday's event. Seats for the Mabee-Santel match are being reserved. Tickets may be obtained at the Elks 'club, Anaheim. While the annual convention of the California Real Estate association was held at Santa Ana, the entire county joined in entertaining the 500 visitors who came from all sections of the state, and who declared at the close that it was the most enjoyable convention ever held in the west. One of the pleasant features of the meeting was the trip to Anaheim for luncheon at noon Friday. The convention adjourned for luncheon at noon, and more than 400 of the delegates were loaded into autos and started for this city. A fifteen-minute stop was made at Orange, where the citizens met them and passed around cigars and other refreshments. The Anaheim band and a delegation of local realtors met them at Orange and acted as an escort at balanace of the way. A luncheon had been prepared for the guests at the Elks' club house. J. S. Howard, president of the Anaheim realty board, presided and made an address of welcome. Among the entertainment features at the luncheon was a duet by President C. C. C. Taum and Fred O. Reed, past president. Miss Antonia Friend, famous Spanish dancer, gave an exhibition, and the Schmidt.Fellinge orchestra enlivened the occasion with music. Addresses were made by Dr. H. T. Stonier, director of the extension work of the University of Southern California, who spoke on "Real Estate Education at the University;" Emile E. Kahn, director of the association. "The Insurance Department in a Real Estate Office," and W. H. Daum, of Los Angeles, "Industrial Real Estate. At the conclusion of the banquet, the visitors were taken on a drive through the oil fields of northern Orange county and on a trip over the Skyline drive. The convention adjourned shortly after noon Saturday after passing a resolution expressing the appreciation of the delegates of the signal program, enjoyable entertainment and general all-round good time provided by Orange county to the delegates. Many topics were discussed during the three-day session and the convention went on record as opposed to the hampering of business by too much and unnecessary national and state legislation when it adopted a resolution concerning interference Members of the committee, which has charge of this work are pushing it to the limit and a very substantial class of protection, consisting of piles faced with hog wire in front and a six-foot embankment with brush between them, is being put in. One tier of brush and willow trees, with roots on them, is planted in the trench with the wire and piles. There has been more or less water in the river for a month and up around Colton it is reported that some damage has already been suffered from the overflow water. This may be taken as a warning to us to prepare for heavier flows to follow, as the snow is now piling up in the mountains. "Letters have been sent out asking people to send in a very reasonable amount to pay for this work. If all will do this and do it at once the work can go right along until such time that the river will be practically safe. Checks should be mailed at once to the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce offices." received by his mother, Mrs. Mary F. Key, Placentia avenue, he tells of his preparations for the trip and work and will take rather a different outfit than he would need here. Fur caps, mitts, skis, snowshoes are included. Though Dr. Key's term is not up at the Bellevue hospital, New York, he was released from the staff because of this exceptional opportunity. It is not known how long he will stay at the Labrador mission. Before leaving San Francisco a year ago, Dr. Key heard Dr. Wilfred Grenfell speak and read one of his books, never expecting to work in the field although he was greatly interested in it. The biggest coward is the one who is afraid to do right. The winner of the Mabee-Santel match will have an opportunity to wrestle Pete Sauer, contender for the world's title, in the Philharmonic auditorium, Los Angeles, some time soon after the first of the year. A large purse has been offered for this match so both Mabee and Santel are eager to win next Tuesday's event. Seats for the Mabee-Santel match are being reserved. Tickets may be obtained at the Elks' club, Anaheim. HI-Y CONFERENCE At the regular business meeting at the close of the third annual Orange county Hi-Y conference held in Anaheim Saturday and Sunday the fellows voted unanimously to hold their conference next year in Fullerton. The conference, although not as largely attended as expected was certainly one of the best, each high school being represented by some of the finest and leading students. Gale Seaman, student secretary of the international committee of the Y. M. C. A. for the high schools and colleges of the Pacific coast, gave a fine talk Saturday evening at a banquet at the Methodist church on the subject of "Broadcasting" and also a fine heart to heart talk with the fellows Sunday morning at the Presbyterian church. He brought in some of his experience this summer while he was in China and the far east, which made his talks very interesting and inspiring. Owing to the fact that this conference came only one week following the big southern California conference in San Diego, the fellows decided that next year's county conference should either come a month before or else in the spring and left it to the executive committee to decide. Art Mann, of Anaheim, was elected president. Only half-baked men are likely to get "hard-boiled." DEMAND ELIMINATION OF DISHONEST DEALERS Real Estate Men Want Law Strengthened to Protect Buyers.

William H. Akin, chairman of the legislative committee, presented committee recommendations which were given the convention's approval and which the committee was directed to incorporate in amendments to be presented making it compulsory for the state legislature. The recommendations included increasing the state department revolving fund from $100,000 to $200,000; providing a penalty for licensed brokers who fail properly to display a sign indicating that they have conformed to the requirements of the license and placing colonization schemes under the jurisdiction of the state commissioner. Carl E. Jones, of San Diego, suggested that an amendment also be presented making it compulsory for applicants for licenses to undergo an examination as to their qualifications. He pointed out that there are many men engaged in real estate selling who have no knowledge whatever of papers involved in the transfer of real estate. He asserted the belief that the examination would eliminate a great many incompetents and would elevate the business to that of a profession. Edwin T. Keiser state commission.

He pointed out that there are many men engaged in real estate selling who have no knowledge whatever of papers involved in the transfer of real estate. He asserted the belief that the examination would eliminate a great many incompetents and would elevate the business to that of a profession. Edwin T. Keiser, state commissioner, in an address, declared that he has found that the percentage of dealers who have reflected discredit upon the profession has been very small as compared with the large number engaged in the selling of real estate. "I do not believe there is an organization in the state, or the United States, that is more anxious to have its business conducted along legitimate lines of integrity and honesty than the majority of real estate brokers," the commissioner said. Declaring that the home is the greatest institution in the world, he said that no one carries greater responsibility than the person charged with the duty of offering his services in the selection of a domicile for a family. "It is of profound importance that real estate men be keenly conscious of their obligation and their duty when they select a piece of land to sell for a home," said the commissioner. "We need but review the history of some real estate transactions in California to be impressed with the insincerity, ignorance and dishonesty upon the part of some real estate agents." "They have not only broken the family financially, but also have broken them in spirit. It seems to me that no greater wrong can be done any man or woman, who may be ignorant of local conditions, than for some agent to take their money and sell them a piece of land from which it is impossible for the purchaser to make a living. With what is now being done by real estate organizations throughout the state, I can assure you that mistakes of the past will not be repeated." He pointed out that the department this year had been instrumental in returning at least $150,000 to persons who, through dishonest dealers had invested their all and stood to lose. He said he did not think it right to permit any class of men Three calls, inside of four days, all at night, made the week a strenuous one for the fire boys, but in each case by prompt response they prevented a disastrous blaze. The first was Tuesday night when a backfire auto started a blaze in the Matton auto repair shop on Oak street. The fire was extinguished before any considerable damage was done. The second call came at 7 o'clock Friday night. This fire was at the sugar factory, having broken out in the alcohol distillery. Damage was slight as the blaze was speedily put under control. Another alarm called the department to the Colonial apartments on North Lemon street Sunday evening. This fire originated in a closet, and was caused by an electric iron. Seventy-five people make their home at the Colonial, and the smoke that filled the house, caused considerable excitement. Several of the tenants manned the house hose, but were unable to locate the seat of the fire until Vic LaMont, owner of the building, and the fire department, of which he is a member, arrived on the scene. The blaze was finally located in a closet and speedily extinguished. When the stream was turned on the hosemen were knocked down by an electric shock as the charged wire was struck by the water. The Colonial apartments is a wooden building. It furnishes homes for 75 people, and but for the prompt response of the department they would probably all be homeless now, and all their household goods destroyed. This week Brunk's comedians are giving a tent show for the benefit of the fire department. The tent is pitched just east of the city hall, and although the weather has been unproptious good audiences have greeted the performers every night, and those who attended the first shows declare that it is worth the money. The show will continue during the week and everybody in the city should attend at least once to show their appreciation of the fire boys. NATIONAL ORANGE SHOW ...

PARENT TREE DEAD The long fight made by the University of California Citrus scientists to save the life of the father tree of southern California's orange orchards has proved in vain. The tree has died—and at a ripe old age. A few years ago it was noticed that the tree, which stood in the court yard of the Mission Inn, Riverside, where it had been transplanted by President Theodore Roosevelt, was growing decrepit. Slowly, its life was ebbing away. A few months ago it was seen the end was near, and with genuine regret Riversiders waited word of its demise. But, although it no longer lives, it is not to be forgotten, for Frank A. Miller has ordered it cut into blocks for distribution to prominent citrus men of the southland. NATIONAL ORANGE SHOW Announcement is made that plans are rapidly being formulated for the thirteenth National Orange show, which will be held in San Bernardino, February 16 to 26. California's greatest mid-winter event will be larger than ever before, according to R. H. Mack, general manager. The National Orange show for the first time will be given upon its own grounds. One of the greatest features of the orange show will provide for automobile parking inside the grounds with machines available to visitors to the show at any time. Already the demand for space is great, both in the fruit tent and in the industrial section. The Mutual Orange Distributors have taken one whole side of the fruit tent, and will exhibit citrus fruits from thirty-five different localities. The M. O. D. in addition will have a wonderful feature display. Many other fruit organizations and communities have also reserved space and are busy on their exhibits. "An entirely new and novel decorative and lighting scheme will be presented at the forthcoming show," said Manager Mack. "We are now able to present our show in a better manner, providing more conveniences and confidently expect an attendance of more than 200,000 visitors at this great mid-winter classic, because of the fact that we have our own grounds, which permit us to make more comprehensive plans than ever before." You pay attention to what you eat; others will pay attention to what you drink.
