Is now in full swing and with all its opportunities for economics has proven to the public to be the season's greatest selling event. Bargains In All Departments THE S. Q. R. STORE Starting Sunday Douglas Fairbanks will be seen in "Robin Hood" at the Fairyland. This is one of the most spectacular pictures ever seen on the screen. It will be presented for five days. A bungalow court, costing $20,000, is to be built on the Rimpau tract on South Olive street. Permit for the structure was granted to G. W. Burns and O. A. Fischer last week, and work is expected to be speeded up at once. T. M. Edwards has purchased the property at the corner of Center and Janss street of Mrs. Mabel Clark, and is making preparations to erect a big apartment house thereon. Work will start on the building immediately. The Anaheim basketball team was deefated by San Diego Friday in the latter city, the score being 23 to 12. The Anaheim players were Pohlman, Janss, Newkirk, Ross, Wallace and Hile. The Placentia Mutual Orange Growers' association met in annual session at the Fullerton high school Saturday. Abe Pritchard, secretary-manager, reported that the association shipped 1064 cars the past year, yielding $1,739,697.92. Two weeks ago the Hess tract in the south end of the city was put on the market, and on Monday Eygabroad & Fisher, who have the handling of it, reported that more than sixty lots had already been disposed of. Corner lots sell for $1650, and inside lots for $1-500. J. R.

Corner lots sell for $1650, and inside lots for $1,500. J. R. Gallemore, who recently disposed of his interest in the Fullerton News, left Saturday for Bartow, Florida, having purchased a half interest in his brother's newspaper plant in that city. Mr. Gallemore sailed on the Ecuador from San Pedro to Havana, and will probably pause in the Cuban capital long enough to see the bright lights before crossing into dry territory. Teams began excavating for the Kraemer apartment house at Center and North Philadelphia streets Tuesday. A force of men was also dismantling and removing the Lee service station, which stands on the property. This will be the largest building in the city. It is rumored that the building may be four stories in height instead of three stories, as heretofore reported, but Mr. Kraemer has not verified the statement. The annual recommendation for trial and grand jurors, made by Superior Judges Z. B. West and R. Y. Williams, was filed Thursday with J. M. Backs, clerk of the board of supervisors. According to the judges, thirty grand jurors will be chosen, and 120 trial jurors. In their recommendation, the court emphasized the need of law respecting honest men and women to be impanelled. They called attention to the fact that none who had been impanelled during the past year are eligible. A. L. Goddicksen, who appeared before Justice J. B. Cox to answer a charge of "cutting in," brought as a result of an automobile smash at the corner of Anaheim road near the county hospital, was released on his own recognition for appearance later. Goddicksen surrendered himself as soon as he learned that a warrant had been issued for his arrest. He asked time to consult an attorney before entering a plea. Goddicksen's car, and one owned by William Steuwig were wrecked in the collision which resulted in the criminal charges. H. O. Easton has purchased the Joseph Fayles ranch, which lies directly southeast of Fayles home, south of the Richfield road. The ranch consists of six acres of fine young Valencia trees just in their prime, probably ten years old. The price paid, it is understood, was wel lin keeping with orange land prices in this vicinity and county, and the buying of the ranch shows the faith which Manager Easton, of the Placentia Mutual Orange association, has in the orange industry here. There are no buildings on the six acres and Mr. and Mrs. Easton will still live in their pretty home on North Bradford avenue. The Orange county hospital is anxious to obtain five or six young women, preferably 18 to 25 years old, to take up the course of nursing which begins February 1. The course lasts only 28 months, instead of 36 as formerly, for certificate. The school is registered by the state. The hospital has an advantage over similar institutions, says Superintendent Harry E. Zaiser, in that every variety of disease is treated—none excluded. An allowance, besides all findings, is given of $20 per month the first year, $25 the second and $30 the last four months. A competent instructress is available and lectures also are given by physicians who are specialists in their lines. A year ago farmers were in the slough of despond; and rightly so. They had been almost wiped out of existence. Millions of them were on the verge of bankruptcy. The year had been the most disastrous in their history. They are not yet out of these difficulties, but an increase of nearly $2,000,000 in the value of farm... Miss Mabel Head has received word from Washington, D.C., that her appointment as postmistress at Garden Grove has been confirmed. Miss Head was appointed temporary postmistress September 1, upon the resignation of C.F. Thompson. Later she took the examinations, being the only applicant. Anaheim baseball teams won two more victories Sunday. The Colton Centrals were defeated by Billy Knott's Merchants on the high school ground, the score being 9 to 2. The Knights of Columbus team also defeated the K.C. champion team of Los Angeles. It was a hard fought battle, but the locals won by ya 4 t o2 score. Frank Ey spent half a day in town this week looking at the many improvements now in progress here. Frank takes a very lively interest in this city, having long been a prominent resident here, arriving in 1874. He has resided at Santa Ana for a number of years, and says that in his opinion Anaheim is growing more rapidly than any city of its size in California. The city of Huntington Beach, has filed a complaint with the railroad commission against the Huntington Beach Telephone company, Pacific Telephone and Telegraph and United States Telephone and Telegraph company that the present equipment of the Huntington Beach company is inadequate to handle the business, and asks the installation of improved equipment and other improvements. A. Pierotti was in town from Placentia on Monday gathering data relating to the number of irrigated acres in Orange county and the value of all products of the soil. He will forward this information to Francis Cuttle at Sacramento, who will lay it before Governor Richardson, with a view to retaining the appropriation for water conservation in the counties of Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino. The governor is slashing all appropriations, but it is hoped he will retain that for water conservation. Mr. Pierotti is engaged in a prodigious task and will soon forward Mr. Cuttle a mass of very important information. With a new high record of 197 prisoners in the Orange county jail, Sheriff Sam Jernigan is proving the old adage that a new broom sweeps clean. At the same time in department one of the superior court, another record was established. For the first time in near ya year, there were no criminal arraignments scheduled for the regular Friday morning hour. Only three criminal cases were handled in department two. This is considered an unusual circumstance with the large number of prisoners in the county jail, but is explained by the fact that the majority of cases are misdemeanors, which are handled entirely in the lower courts, and felony cases have all been set for trial or are not yet ready for arraignment. A year ago farmers were in the slough of despond; and rightly so. They had been almost wiped out of existence. Millions of them were on the verge of bankruptcy. The year had been the most disastrous in their history. They are not yet out of these difficulties, but an increase of nearly $2,000,000,000 in the value of farm crops as compared with one year ago, and an increase of over $2,000,000,000 if we include all farm products, such as live stock and crops, has lifted the burden from many a debt-ridden farmer. It has started debt paying, and from the farmer it has gone to the banker, and from the banker on to other interests; and this two billion dollar increase in farm product prices means an enormous expansion, an expansion several times as great as this sum, in the wide ramifications of trade and industry. The Ladies' Euchre club was entertained on Thursday afternoon by Mrs. F.A. Backs, assisted by her daughter, Miss Frances Backs. The first prize was won by Mrs. Grim, the second by Mrs. Dwyer and the consolation by Mrs. Hamler. After the game a delicious two course luncheon was served by the hostess. Those present were Mrs. Wm. Falkenstein, Mrs. Strodthoff, Mrs. J.J. Dwyer, Mrs. A. Shecule, Mrs. Arthur Lewis, of Santa Fe Springs; Mrs. B.J.Dresser, Mrs.J.Sheridan, Mrs.George Hamler, Mrs.J.W.Cole, Mrs.A.Rimpau, Mrs.M.J.Bradley, Mrs.S.Lybarger, Mrs.F.C.Benjamin, Mrs.C.F.Grim, Mrs.Wagner, Mrs.Bennerscheldt, Mrs.John Hartung, Mrs.F.Rimpau, Mrs.Frank Gates, Miss Lillian Bennerscheldt and the hostess, Mrs.Backs, and Miss Frances Backs. ALKENSTEIN's JANUARY CLEARANCE SALE Now On In Every Department! The Windows for Particulars The Windows for Particulars ALKENSTEIN'S Frank Turner, wanted in Riverside county for stealing an auto more than a year ago, was arrested Monday by Anaheim officers and held in the city jail until Riverside officers came after him. Chester A. Morrow, owner of the stolen car, was driving along the highway near Cypress and stopped to five a lift to a pilgrim traveling on foot. After a short conversation Morrow discovered the man he was carrying was the man wanted for stealing his car. He speeded up toward Anaheim, but before he could reach police headquarters Turner became suspicious and jumped fro mthe car. Constable Ed Marion later located the man near Cypress and put him under arrest. Domestic troubles in the home of R. W. Ernest, business manager of the Plain Dealer, led to the courts Thursday, when Mr. Ernest filed a complaint in Justice Brown's court, charging his son, Ward, with disturbing the peace, and Henry Ernest, his father, swore to a complaint against Mrs. Ida Ernest, his son's wife, charging her with assault and battery. It is claimed by the young man and his mother that Mr. Ernest promised to give him a fourth interest in the Plain Dealer when he reached his majority, but that he failed to keep the promise. Ward recently came of age, and alleges that his father failed to keep his promise. Mrs. Ernest sustained her son in his claim, and it appears that Henry Ernest sided with his son, the publisher, in the dispute. The two factions at tempted to settle the disagreement without outside interference, but failed. WOUNDED MAN WAS MUSTACHE SWINDLER tice J. B. Cox, who obtained a good view of "Metcalf," will also be relied upon for the identification, if it can be made. As Schwartz, the man had a record of crime which substantiates the belief for officers that he is a desperate criminal. In Los Angeles, July 31, 1921, he was arrested on robbery charges. In December, 1921, he was arrested in Des Moines, Ia., on charges of obtaining money under false pretenses and is wanted there on a bench warrant pertaining to the same matter. He was arrested in Oakland, April 8, 1922, on petit larceny charges. This information was obtained when Zabel forwarded finger prints to the bureau of identification at San Diego.

WOUNDED MAN WAS MUSTACHE SWINDLER "Fred Mason," at the county hospital as a result of a bullet wound in his leg, sustained when Special Officer Fred Parker shot him as he resisted arrest as an asserted short change operator; faces a dreary future. Identified by Deputy Sheriff Herman Zabel, head of the county bureau of identification, as Jacob P. Schwartz alias James Burns, Jack Burns and Fred Mason, and, according to Zabel as the man who passed worthless checks on at least three stores, the wounded man will also be questioned on suspicion of his connection with the daring "mustache" swindle, by which a mysterious stranger attempted to cash a stolen warrant for $5322 at the office of the county treasurer last Saturday. As soon as his condition is such as to warrant his being moved, Schwartz will be taken to the county jail, dressed in a gray overcoat, a cap, pulled over his eyes, and a false mustache. Mrs. Marjory Joplin, deputy county treasurer, will then attempt to identify him as the man who appeared before her last Saturday in an attempt to cash the warrant, drawn to E. I. Crooke, and believed to have been stolen. The fact that "Mason" was picked up only four hours after the mysterious "Mr. Metcalf" had vanished from the court house led the authorities to suspect him of being that person, Jus, Reception committee—B.

GASOLINE TAX WILL IMPROVE COUNTY ROADS Orange county would have a fund of approximately $800,000 to spend on improving county highways, it is estimated, if a bill levying a tax of one cent a gallon on gasoline is adopted by the state legislature as presented at the instance of the Los Angeles chamber of commerce. As drawn, the bill proposes that two thirs of the tax money collected in each county be returned to that county for use in building and maintenance of county highways. Competent authority estimated the consumption of gasoline and distillate in this county annually will average approximately 12,000,000 gallons. If this estimate is correct the proposed levy of one cent in this county would produce $1,200,000, with $800,000 being the portion that would accrue to the county. The man who is so busy attending to civic duties that he can't take his family out riding, isn't much of a citizen.
