OBSERVATIONS By Charles Kuchel. The Valencia orange show is beautiful. A person entering the mammoth tent imagines he is in a fairyland. Everywhere the display is enchanting. Varied electric lights at night have a dazzling effect. The golden colored oranges make a splendid picture. Myraids of showy scenes are pleasing to behold. A person wonders at the marvelous methods used in the artistic arrangement of the designs that meet the eye upon every side. Refreshing fountains send forth spiral sprays of water amid floral effects of every hue. Fine paintings by local artists adorn the walls, while the overhanging decorations add to the scenic wonderland. Exhibitors vie with one another in their poetic portrayals embellished in the pyramids of citrus products that afford a mental picture not easily forgotten. Miniature landscapes with cozy homes surrounded by swards of green cause the visitor to pause in surprised appreciation. Enterprising merchants have prepared elaborate booths where they dispense their wares in as good, if not better form than ever before. High-class entertainers strive to please the vast audiences with classical and humorous productions, delighting the sense of old and young. The industrial world is well represented in an adjoining spacious enclosure, richly decorated, and according the hords of people a chance to combine business with pleasure. Automobile displays are a distinctive feature, the cars being of high-class standards, capable of satisfying the aesthetic tastes of any man or woman. Implements of agriculture abound in large numbers for the benefit of those who toll by the sweat of their brows. The Chamber of Com- It was interesting to learn that the females do all the manual labor, while the man folks lounge around be decked in furs and feathers. These maidens should read up on Reno. FAR-REACHING ORDER Commissioner of Corporations Edwin M. Daugherty has issued an order affecting all applications for permits to sell securities on oil property which is far-reaching and will have the effect of surrounding stockholders in such corporations with an additional safe guard. The order materially decreases the capitalization allowed per drainage acre of such corporations. Heretofore the capitalization limitation allowed by the corporation department has been $200,000 net for corporations authorized to sell securities on oil property. On May 2st the commissioner made the following changes: In proven territory, such as Santa Fe Springs, Signal Hill, etc., $175,000 per acre drainage area. Semi-proven territory, $150,000 net per rare drainage area. Unproven territory not in excess of $1000,000 net per acre drainage area. In so-called wild-cat territorw such as unproven territory the commissioner has directed that there should be a provision limiting the companies to the drilling of one test well in nearly every instance, unless there is some unusual reason why additional wells should be permitted to be drilled at the same time. The changes designated in the commissioner's order effect only applications filed subsequent to April 30, 1923. INTOLERANCE The great crime in America is to think that hard does not think and that mealtime, a forest ed for their own men had failed. So the story to a federal Francisco. That skillet $75. Moral: Be permit before national forest. STEADY HA The substance try are coming preciate the v ministration tha sails to even breeze, and tha panic of fear whenever a horizon.

Where ilions of men ou is now alleged t Some of the grumpy gents in the legislature threaten all kinds of dire things because the kettle has boiled over and they have had their pin feathers loosened from their moorings. These peeved persons are going to recall the governor because he stands for the people's rights. They will find hard sledding ahead on that route, and will come in on a flat tire with the engine hitting once every four times around. They will look like the breaking up of a hard winter, because they might start something that won't finish at all. The bill aimed at the removal of those death-bed appointees, they declare, is in for the recall, and the sad guys are working themselves up in an awful lather because their feet are slipping. Putting the skids under these lame-ducks may make them look ludicrous hiking across to dry land, but their day of usefulness is over, in the opinion of the taxpayer who stands behind the gun. These birds better have a care and hit the grit while the going is good or the irate hunter who pays the tax bills may let fly both barrels. These swivel chair chromos better amputate themselves before they get troublesome for the people are getting tired of toting too much excess bagage. They should turn over a new leaf, get up bright and early, take a hitch in their belts, draw a deep breath, and go to work. Many people down this way who know the governor are aware of the fact that he does not scare at shadows, and when he starts out to tree a coon he always brings home the bacon.

Automobile displays are a distinctive feature, the cars being of high-class standards, capable of satisfying the aesthetic tastes of any man or woman. Implements of agriculture abound in large numbers for the benefit of those who toll by the sweat of their brows. The Chamber of Commerce deserve the hearty commendation of everyone for their untiring efforts in making this Valencia orange show such a creditable exhibition, of which Anaheim is proud. INTOLERANCE The great crime in America is to think. The herd does not think and its intolerance of those who do has no bounds. If a man discover a new scientific theory, write a condensation of history free from superstition and unproved belief, or sketch the evolution of the human race for future centuries he arouses the intolerant wrath of the mob that has not progressed beyond the kindergarten stage in knowledge or wisdom and hates nothing so thoroughly as to be reminded of it. If a man disapprove of the government, and tell his fellowmen about it, there is a clamor instant and wide for his incarceration. The men who drafted our guarantee of free speech knew from experience the bitterness of intolerance at the hands of others. Human nature has not greatly changed since 1791. Intolerance against the opinions of others is prevalent everywhere today. George Bernard Shaw has written a great defense of free speech in a single sentence that should have its place on every editorial room desk: "Our whole theory of freedom of speech and opinion for citizens rests, not on the assumption that everybody is right, but on the certainty that everybody is wrong on some point on which somebody else is right, so that there is a public danger in allowing anybody to go unheard." Do not dismiss that sentence with a single reading—it is worthy of study. Many of us need that guidance, and especially when it is the other fellow's opinion that is being smothered under a wave of temporary intolerance. SIX SURE WAYS TO START A FOREST FIRE 1. Matches—Be sure your match is burning briskly when you throw it away in the woods. Of course a match thinks—what's its head for? 2. Tobacco—Throw your lighted cigarette and cigar stumps and glowing pipe ashes into the biggest heap of brush and needles you can find along the road or trail. Only 40 percent of our forest fires are set by the drilling of one test well in nearly every instance, unless there is some unusual reason why additional wells should be permitted to be drilled at the same time. The changes designated in the commissioner's order effect only applications filed subsequent to April 30, 1923. In fact, it is dulium has swu-treme.

The school statutes plainly say competitive bids must be asked to build a structure. It is provided, further that where an old building is repaired, the work may be done by day labor. Considerable work has already been performed upon the new school by day labor. While the school board's action in doing the work by day labor is honorable, in view of the fact, it is said, money may be saved the taxpayers in construction work, many citizens believe it would have been wise to have this legal aspect of the case settled before going ahead with the building. It is to be hoped there will be no entangling alliances. )o(— Some people who witnessed a picture upon the screen the other day showing the hunting of big game in Central Africa, were interested in the several daring experiences of the intrepid hunters but the matrimonial market was led on by the African natives and the audience much merriment. The primitive males buy their wives with cows—the more cows a man possesses the greater number of mates he acquires. SIX SURE WAYS TO START A FOREST FIRE 1. Matches—Be sure your match is burning briskly when you throw it away in the woods. Of course a match thinks—what's its head for? 2. Tobacco—Throw your lighted cigarette and cigar stumps and glowing pipe ashes into the biggest heap of brush and needles you can find along the road or trail. Only 40 percent of our forest fires are set by the smokers. 3. Making Camp—Build a big camp fire, and place it as close to young trees or clumps of brushes as possible. To make sure your fire will spread, build it on top of the pine needles. 4. Breaking Camp—Don't bother about your fire when you leave camp; the rain is sure to put it out. 5. Bonfires—Build as big a bonfire as you can, especially if it is dry and windy. If you build it close to a tree or rotten log it will burn long after you have left. 6. Fighting Fires—If you see a forest fire don't bother to put it out or report it to the nearest ranger. Why should you worry about the destruction of the national forests that Uncle Sam has created for your use and enjoyment and that of your children But—if you do any of these things in a California forest, be prepared to pay $500 and go to jail. $75 FOR A SKILLET OF BEANS Last summer two men were camping in the Klamath national forest. The weather was clear and hot and woods like tinder. Noon time came. Among the dry pine needles they built a fire to warm their skillet of beans. ANAHEIM GAZETTE As they sat down to enjoy their meal, a forest ranger rode up and asked for their camp fire permit. The men had failed to get one. So the other day they told their story to a federal district judge in San Francisco. That skillet of beans cost them just $75. Moral: Be sure to get a camp fire permit before you build a fire on a national forest in California. STEADY HAND ON THE HELM The substantial people of the country are coming more and more to appreciate the value of a national administration that does not trim its sails to every changing, passing breeze, and that does not yield to a panic of fear and become hysterical whenever a cloud appears upon the horizon. This administration had a pretty fine course marked out when it was called to take charge of the helm of the ship of state, and it has pursued that course consistently from the beginning. One of the first problems which confronted the administration was that of unemployment. It was urged that the government undertake the task of finding jobs for those that were idle. The administration did not yield to that demand, believing that the only substantial and permanent basis of employment is prosperous private industry. The Republican congress and the Republican president set about the task of correcting the economic weaknesses of government policies established under the Democratic regime. Prosperity was restored and today there is employment for every man who wants a job. In fact, it is claimed that the pendulum has swung to the other extreme. Where in 1921, there were millions of men out of employment, there is now alleged to be a demand for man RAILROAD MENTIONED IN WILL Ten thousand dollars has been queathed to the Union Pacific Railroad company by the will of Victoria Belot Monti. Mrs. Monti, then Victoria Belot, was injured in a train accident near Leadville, Colo., forty years ago. A Union Pacific surgeon, Dr. George Wright, attended her and she recovered. The railroad company paid her seven thousand dollars. In her will, dated July 2, 1918, she left ten thousands dollars "in recognition of the care and attention bestowed upon me by officials of the Union Pacific hospital." The money is being used to erect a memorial hospital, which is now nearing completion. It is believed this is the first bequest of this kind in American railroad history. GOOSE HONKS HIGH, DOES NOT HANG Mr. Easton-Jenner Points Out Error Usually Made in Familiar Proverb H. Easton-Jenner calls in to direct our attention to an error which appeared in our last week's issue in an article quoting the well known proverb, usually printed "Everything is lovely and the goose hangs high." He says the quotation should be "Everything is lovely and the goose honks high." In this statement he is perpendicularly correct, and we have pleasure in presenting his statement to our readers. He lived for ten years in the Canadian northwest and has seen flocks of geese flying overhead by the tens of thousands. One one occasion, on a very dark night, a great flock of these birds consumed eight hours in passing over. People declared there must have been more than a million geese in this great flight. Geese usually fly on the darkest night, when there is no starlight, and when they fly high it is a sign of fair weather to continue. NOTICE TO CREDITORS Estate of Edward W. Jenkins, Deceased.

The Republican congress and the Republican president set about the task of correcting the economic weaknesses of government policies established under the Democratic regime. Prosperity was restored and today there is employment for every man who wants a job. In fact, it is claimed that the pendulum has swung to the other extreme. Where in 1921, there were millions of men out of employment, there is now alleged to be a demand for man who cannot be found. Wages in many industries have been raised to fabulous heights. Where it was previously urged that the government should furnish employment, it is now urged that the immigration bars should be thrown down in order to permit an influx of cheap labor from Europe. Once again the administration refuses to get hysterical but adheres to the policy of admitting a reasonable number of immigrants each year, shutting out all criminal, diseased, pauper and other undesirable classes, and admitting chiefly people who come from those races most easily assimilated and Americanized. It is the belief of the administration that in due course the employment problem will be adjusted by natural processes and that hasty action in throwing wide the immigration gates would later be regretted. The administration's policy on the subject of employment is typical. In pursuance of fthe same policy of consistently following a well-defined course, President Harding has refused to enter upon a wholesale and destructive policy of revising the recently enacted tariff law under the flexibility clause. He has reaffirmed his determination not to enter the league of nations by the front door, the back door, or the cellar door. In spite of the protests of some that he is injuring the public service by excessive economy, he has continued his policy of reducing public expenditures by every possible means, and thus far public service has not been impaired. He has paved the way for further reduction in federal taxes and for substantial reduction of the public debt. In the management of foreign affairs the administration has likewise been calm and deliberate. There has been no frequent announcement of a "diplomatic crisis" with Mexico. Negotiations for the funding of the debt due from Great Britain were conducted quietly and effectively, and with good feeling on both sides. Our foreign relations are today the best they have pleasure in presenting his statement to our readers. He lived for ten years in the Canadian northwest and has seen flocks of geese flying overhead by the tens of thousands. One one occasion, on a very dark night, a great flock of these birds consumed eight hours in passing over. People declared there must have been more than a million geese in this great flight. Geese usually fly on the darkest night, when there is no starlight, and when they fly high it is a sign of fair weather, to continue perhaps for four or five days. When they fly low it is a sign of bad weather coming. On this occasion the night was so dark that he could not see his hand before his face. When geese fly high, therefore, fair weather is in prospect, and the proverb should be "Everything is lovely and the goose honks high." A goose does not hang, he adds, it honks, therefore the proverb should be as he states. Another proverb usually misquoted, he says, is "The game is not worth the candle." This should be "The flame is not worth the candle." We doff our hat to Mr. Easton-Jenner, and bid him the top of the morning. EUCHRE CLUB Mrs. Hartung entertained the Ladies' Euchre club at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Edgar Hartung, in East Anaheim, on Thursday afternoon. A profusion of beautiful roses were used in decorating the rooms. The usual game of euchre was enjoyed by the members and the several substitute members present. Mrs. Strodthoff won the first prize, Mrs. Bennerscheidt the second and Mrs. Hartung the consolation. Dainty refreshments were served at the close of the game. Mrs. Lybarger will entertain the members at the next meeting. NOTICE OF SALE OF REAL ESTATE AT PRIVATE SALE In the Superior Court of the State of California, in and for the County of Orange.

DODGE BROTHERS MOTOR CAR As Spring days approach, the demand for Dodge Brothers Touring Gar mounts swiftly. Dodge Brothers one problem, at present, is not how many Touring Cars they can sell, but how many they can build. Never was public approval of Dodge Brothers product more obvious, and never was it more richly deserved. Improvements, rarely spoken of but constantly being made, have brought the car to a state of perfection which can only be described as remarkable, even for Dodge Brothers. Every part which takes a major strain is built of chrome vanadium steel. Many more pieces of alloy steel are used in vital parts than normal wear requires. CHAS. H.
