IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Items of Local Interest Culled from the Files of Former Issues of This Paper 50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK December 19, 1874 The country around Anaheim is a paradise for sportsmen. Messers Hawley and Curtis during a four hour's hunt the other day brought down forty ducks and about as many geese. If you want a stylish calanar for 1875 call at Helmann & George's or at Blanken's drug store and get one. They are the product of our job office. R. Luedke is opening a very fine assortment of Christmas goods, selected with his usual taste whilst in San Francisco recently. By this afternoon the tracks of the Anaheim branch will be laid within 3 and one half miles of the depot. Among our visitors during the week was Robert N. White, Esq. The Westminster postoffice has received all the necessary blanks, mail bags, etc., and now enjoys the luxury of daily mail. The office is at the cooperative store and T. C. Hull acts as Deputy Postmaster. One of our lady friends has been so unfortunate as to lose her scrap bag. rumor is current in Washington that negotiations are pending for the session by Mexico to the United States of a strip of land on the Mexican side of the Rio Grande as indemnity for the Mexican raids. 25 YEARS AGO TODAY December 21, 1899 Col. Tuffree was in town on Tuesday morning. He reports his mines at Capistrano promising the best results, the tunnel drive being 14 feet into the mountain and going through good, rich rock all the way. He has shipped ore to Dr. Pepper of Los Angeles who has a new treatment for rocks, and if it proves successful will build a smelter. Mrs. Hartung entertained the Ladies Euchre club at Backs hall on Thursday afternoon last. The hall was pretty decorated, holly predominating. The usual game of progressive euchre was played. The first prize, a handsome silver comb and brush, was won by Mrs. Schneider; the second, a Wedgewood plaque, by Mrs. Smith and the third, a porter picture, by Mrs. Henry Kuchel.

It was of yellow Java canvass, worked with red worsted, and the finder thereof will be liberally rewarded by returning the same to this office. Mr. Tim Boege has sub-divided a portion of his property, situated near the railroad depot into half-acre lots which he offers for sale at marvelously low figures. As the depot buildings are located on a part of this same tract, the addition presents itself most advantageously to all those to whom it is an article of faith that the railroad makes the town. The teachers of our public schools have had their pupils in training for several weeks preparing for the exhibition which is to come off the evening of the 29th. An admittance fee of 60 cents will be charged. The money so raised will be expended in procuring dumb bells, erecting swings, turning bars and other gymnastic apparatus. The school grounds are to limited to admit of games of ball without damages to the building. The spirit of improvement that has infected our town this summer has absorbed all the vacant land in the neighborhood of the school house. Our juveniles must have some means of exercising their muscles, and a gymnasium affords the best. We hope that every one interested in the success of our schools will turn out to the exhibition. We think we can safely promise them the worth of their money in entertainment and amusement. The fair given on Wednesday in aid of the Episcopal church was in every way a great success being well managed and well attended. The most extraordinary facilities for disposing of surplus cash were furnished by the fair ladies. The receipts were $370 while less than $50 will cover all expenses.

CONSERVATIVE SAVINGS It is just as much in the part of thrift to know what to do with money as it is to save it. Postmaster General New says that one billion dollars a year is lost annually by the people of the United States who purchase fraudulent securities through the mail. This sum is equal to two-thirds of the estimated total cost of government in the United States, including federal, state, county, city and town expenses. And this makes it manifest that one of our greatest public duties is to strike at fraud, which cheats the people out of their savings, whenever it raises its head. The government is doing everything it can to encourage the saving of money and the banks are lending valuable efforts. In schools, children are being taught to save through the establishment of school savings banks. But more will have to be done and said to impress upon the minds of the people that the proper care of savings of all Metro-Goldwyn pictures, with beautiful photography, sets and exterior scenes. At least two-thirds of the action takes place out of doors. The cast is small, with the leading roles taken by only three people and a dog. Eleanor Boardman, who has made such a great success in the last year through her work in "Wine of Youth." "Sinners in Silk" and "Three Wise Fools," has one of the most interesting roles of her career. In some scenes of the picture she is disguised as a boy. Raymond McKee, remembered for his work in "Down to the Sea in Ships" and "Along Came Ruth," plays opposite Miss Boardman, and Earl Metcalfe plays an interesting character part. It was the belief of Chester M. Franklin, the director, that with three people and a dog he could make a thoroughly entertaining picture, and according to all reports he has succeeded. Mr Franklin himself, together with Frank O'Connor, his assistant director, wrote the scenario of the picture, which was based on the story by Jack Boyle. ENGINEERS MEET The committee of consulting engineers working with the division of engineering and irrigation on their water resources investigation met in Redlands on December 8. The committee is on a field trip in the southern part of the state advising the division in the preparation of their report to the 1925 legislature. This report is being prepared supplemental to the report on the water resources of the state made to the 1923 legislature. It is being financed by a fund of $100,000 raised by the Chambers of Commerce of Los Angeles and San Francisco. Es That object of the action is to quiet plaintiff's title and the title of Martha A. Squires, deceased, to above described real property and to determine adverse claims to and any THE FARMERS' PROBLEM President Coolidge had apparently surveyed a wide field of economic history and recalled many incidents in his personal observation when in his speech of acceptance he said: "A wise, skilled and unselfish leadership can do more than anything else to rescue agriculture. The farmer needs leaders who will stay with him, who have the tact and courage necessary for management, and who have the fidelity to refuse political preferment and business opportunity." In many a community where cooperative movements have been undertaken by farmers the managers chosen have conducted the cooperative business for a time, at the expense of the farmers, and then have either taken over the business, if it proved profitable, or have started competitive business enterprises of their own. Many a manager of a cooperative business has become the representative of a competitive house. He merely used the farmers' cooperative organization as a means of acquiring the experience to make him of value to the competing concern. He did not, as the President said, "stay with the farmer." Then there is another class of leaders who have failed the farmer. In this class are included those leaders who used a farm organization to build themselves an acquaintance and a public standing which they think will furnish a stepping stone to success.
