The contract for the erection of a school house in Cajon school district will be awarded in a few days. It will be located on a part of Kraemer’s rancho, that gentleman having donated a school site. In Mr. Olden’s office can be seen a small branch of hop vine having upon it one hundred and twenty-eight bolls. This splendid specimen was raised on the plantation of J. B. Raine. This gentleman has a large force at work picking and feels greatly elated at the success with which his experiment has been rewarded. A brother of Mr. Chris Reardon has purchased a tract of upland, adjoining the Semi-Tropical nursery of R. H. Gilman.

While jumping at the Turner Hall on Tuesday evening Fritz Yungbluth had the bad luck to run a rusty nail which protruded from the wall into his right hand. He was engaged in broad jumping and going further than he expected was about to lose his balance, when he held out his hand to save himself from falling, when it ran against the nail in the wall, entering the flesh an inch and a half and making a bad gash. Dr. Johnston attended the wound and Fritz will have his hand tied up for awhile. Charles Federman leaves on Saturday for San Francisco to lay in his stock of fall and winter goods. During his absence his store will be conducted by his trusted assistants, Lou Kroeger and Oscar Renner, than whom there are no more obliging and attentive counter jumpers in the business. The store will be closed on Tuesday next on account of the Jewish New Year.

A brother of Mr. Chris Reardon has purchased a tract of upland, adjoining the Semi-Tropical nursery of R. H. Gilman. He is sinking upon it an artesian well which he intends using for irrigation purposes. To those who on account of the heat, have not that alacrity of spirit nor cheer of mind that they were wont to have, we would speak words of wisdom and advice. One slip of Blanken's Celebrated Semi-Tropical Bitters will bathe the drooping spirits in delight beyond the bliss of dreams. Be wise and taste. Mr. Olden reports that the demand for land has been very active for the last month and still continues. The section, considered most desirable at present by purchasers is the Coyote Creek neighborhood. The uncertainty of a large canal and the certainty of Artesian wells has caused inquiry among the uplands to cease. Quite a pleasant party of friends assembled on Monday evening at the home of Don Marcos Yorba, of upper Santa Ana, in order to do honor to the anniversary of the natal day of that worthy gentleman. We do not know the number of his summers and winters which the fates, counting by years, have recorded as past, but we do know that, counting by his virtues he scores a thousand.

TRADE GAINS BASED ON A SOLID FOUNDATION Fears that the well-advertised improvement in business and industrial conditions throughout the country was "worse than the man" have now income tax bills will be mailed between September 1 and 5. Meanwhile 80,000 Treasury checks drawn in favor of Southern California taxpayers to cover the 25 per cent refund on income taxes paid in full are being mailed. This complicates things somewhat, Collector of Internal Revenue Rex D. Goodcell stated yesterday, in advising taxpayers to sit pretty and wait for a bill. Collector Goodcell said that already many checks are being deceived in payment of the installment due September 15, accompanied merely by letters of transmittal and in some instances remittances are forwarded without any explanation. In view of the fact that the 25 per cent reduction is being applied as a credit to all outstanding balances, and bills are being prepared showing the net amount of tax due less this credit, the Collector said that taxpayers should await the receipt of bills before forwarding remittances. It is impossible to credit the remittances now being received prior to the forwarding of bills, inasmuch as a large percentage of the approximate number of 100,000 bills are completed, Collector Goodcell explained. If a taxpayer should fail to receive a bill by September 5, he should either forward his remittance or communicate with the Collector's office to determine the proper amount to be paid. If he is leaving the city and will not be at his residence between September 1 and 5, the Collector said it would facilitate matters if the taxpayer would communicate with his office and obtain the correct amount of taxes due, and if possible a prepared bill to attach to the remittance.

YOU ARE HEREBG DIRECTED TO APPEAR and answer the Complaint in an action entitled as above brought TRADE GAINS BASED ON A SOLID FOUNDATION Fears that the well-advertised improvement in business and industrial conditions throughout the country was a mare "flash in the pan" have now about disappeared. The solid backing of optimism is evident in the unfolding of developments of pronounced constructiveness, and there is reason to believe that the about face now under way toward normal business will be as sudden and sharp as was the sharp slump in the early spring. A resume of the developments of the week demonstrates very clearly that autumn expansion is now well under way. says the Christian Science Monitor. Listed in the order of the importance, although all are closely entwined, the outstanding features of last week's industrial news was a sharp upturn in retail trade, with considerable activity at the wholesale centers; too; further gains in the index numbers, as based on commodity prices, as a sharp advance in the volume of bank clearings in practically all centers. The nearby settlement of the reparations problem caused cheerfulness in the exchanges with new high points for the year reached by many of them, under the leadership of sterling; the lowering of the rediscount rate of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York brought further strength to investment issues whose trend is guided and influenced by money rates; the rapid marketing of the grain crops because of present high prices further loosened up bank loans in the west and finally the announcement of terms for a one billion five hundred million dollar railroad merger, of which the Nickel Plate will be the nucleus, had strengthening effect on the securities markets, despite the irregularity which prevailed at times because of profit taking. If further confirmation were desired of a situation which has changed completely about it could be found in the statement of the United States Seel Corporation on unfilled orders as of July 31, showing a total of 3,-187,072 tons, a decline from the previous month of only 75,433 tons, and a certain indication of the fact that "for killing by his lay asleep in his home near Westminster. He was shot with the receiver with which he killed Jasper Griggsby last October. Jealousy was the cause of the shooting.

It came from everywhere. That money was swindled out of people in every state, every county, every town and city. It didn't come from any particular region. It was taken from the folks who needed HOMES, from farmers who needed BARNS, from unfortunates here, there and everywhere who were actually in need of many, many things in the line of shelter. At $5000 each that money would have built 100,000 beautiful home would have provided shelter of an attractive character for half a million people.
