RADIO A LINK IN THE FAMILY CIRCLE Probably no entertainment and educational device in history has seized so firmly upon the interest of the public as radio. Not even motion pictures have had such universal appeal, for the exhibition of a film implies a theatre or a hall and a sufficient audience to pay for the showing. Isolation is an obstacle to the enjoyment of motion pictures, for a journey to and from the place of exhibition is involved; but isolation is a positive advantage in connection with radio. Even more than the dwellers in cities do the people in the country enjoy the radio, for with houses well separated there is little or no interference between users' receiving sets, and slight interference between the radiocasting stations so far as the listeners are concerned, says the Christian Science Monitor. Whether one lives in the country or the town, radio has opened up a new horizon. In the days of international radiocasting one finds a new meaning in the Shakespearean quotation, "The world is mine oyster." For radio literally brings the world, or no small share of it, in at our windows via the radio arial, and at will, guided by the daily programs printed in newspapers, we may turn to stations within a circuit of several hundred miles and listen to the desired concert, lecture or play. Some persons have expensive sets that brings in everything within a thousand-mile radius, but the great majority find more entertainment and instruction than they can put together tandem-fashion in an evening within two or three hundred miles of their homes. Perhaps the most significant thing evidence that an attack upon the United States meant war with Russia. No matter how far the suppression of human freedom in Russia may go, no matter how deeply the Russian people may be sunk in misery by the power-mad, bayonet-backed oligarchy now in control at Moscow without the consent or direction of the Russian people, the situation is not one calling for American action. But so long as responsible Russian officials openly declare that every government where private property exists must be destroyed, and publicly predict revolution in every "capitalistic" nation, so long as they preach and practice the theory that the rights of life and property should everywhere be ruthlessly trampled under foot by despots, so long will this republic refuse to have closer relations with Moscow than with Barbary pirates. A government which puts murder and robbery under the ban of the law within its own borders, cannot consistently put the seal of approval on organized murder and robbery masquerading as government abroad. America can ignore such a "government," but it can not affiliate with it, let it stand even seventy or seventy-times seven years. LEGION NOTES Calling upon war-time workers in California to assist him in bringing Christmas cheer to the thousands of disabled veterans in Government and private hospitals State Commander, Nathan F. Coombs, of the American Legion has issued an appeal through the three hundred Posts of the Legion to aid in the work. Commander Coombs is asking Citizens to communicate with the Legion Post in their State Adjutant Fisk colors for the parade for National Command. Legislation by congress agencies effecting the and disabled veterans wars under the central United States Veterans be asked next year Legion Rehabilitation Adjutant, James K. formed by National Law. The ten branches Home for Disabled Vets would come under the Veterans' Bureau proves the plan. POLISHING COMMENT A discriminating our conversation is not considered a national trend.

Come too quickly that of stale slang and coarse and inane. Is doubtless due to a perhaps we would not had on tap clearcut, out of the vast reserican dictionary. daily programs printed in newspapers, we may turn to stations within a circuit of several hundred miles and listen to the desired concert, lecture or play. Some persons have expensive sets that brings in everything within a thousand-mile radius, but the great majority find more entertainment and instruction than they can put together tandem-fashion in an evening within two or three hundred miles of their homes. Perhaps the most significant thing about radio is that it means most within the home. This new marvel is proving a means of drawing families together and keeping their members from wandering idly out in to the night in search of diversion. Would you hear music by a tsing trio, an organ, a little symphony orchestra, or a band? Or would you prefer to hear a baritone, a tenor, a soprano, or a contralto? Perhaps you like quartets and choruses. Or, since all these may be had any evening, maybe you will prefer to listen to a talk by some Government official upon some vital national issue. All of these are at the beck of your fingers from dusk ti midnight, and all may be enjoyed without a break in the family circle. For those who are mechanically inclined—and most boys are at some time or other—there are the fascinations of radio experiment and one more means of giving the young folks an interest within the home, instead of outside. Pater-familias' half-forgotten joy in boyish tinkering returns with his efforts to get the most out of his areial arrangements, and to provide an efficient ground for his set. Mother gets new hints about dress and menus. The daughters of the family who are especially interested in music have an enormous field of side-light instruction thrown on their studies. With a radio set in the home, truly one has a device which literally can match the imaginary powers of Aladdin's lamp. STRIKING HANDS WITH BLOODY BOLSHEVISM "The seventh anniversary of the bolshevik revolution is at hand—and the soviet government still stands! Washington papers please copy." So writes the Rev. John Haynes Holmes in "Unity". Czardom stood in Russia for hundreds of years. It stood by the same power which sustains bolshevism—that of the bayonet. Seven hundred thousand communists rule Russia's hundred and ten millions. A LEGION NOTES Calling upon war-time workers in California to assist him in bringing Christmas cheer to the thousands of disabled veterans in Government and private hospitals State Commander, Nathan F. Coombs, of the American Legion has issued an appeal through the three hundred Posts of the Legion to aid in the work. Commander Coombs is asking Citizens to communicate with the Legion Post in their community in order that the names and addresses of the disabled veterans may be obtained. It is his plan to have the citizens visit the hospital and "adopt" for one or more days a disabled veteran. "During the World War," Commander Coombs points out, "The homes of the nation were opened to men and women serving their country. In this hour of their infirmity how much more appropriate that these same loyal citizens should again receive in their homes those who have sacrificed for them and for their country. In this way it is the hope of the Legion to acquaint the public with the great price of war and to further the Legion's contention that there shall be no more wars unless by universal conscription of all the nation's resources." The number of ex-service men-home-sick and stranded in France seems to grow rather than diminish. This is the news from the American Legion Post in Paris which is working to reduce the number of stranded World War veterans in France. Every American Legion Post in California has been invited to attend the Pasadena Tournament of Rosses, according to an announcement made by State Adjutant, James K. Fisk, National Commander, James A. Drain, of the Legion will be a guest at the tournament and it is planned to make a great showing in his honor. The colors of all the Posts, whether representatives o f the organization are on hand or not, will be grouped in the parade, according to the present plans. And now comes trouble, its popularity e continent, a contague home, the com munity, a rivalry that well parallels the world series of base epidemic, a game t he candle, and th e ing true to form w e.

"The seventh anniversary of the bolshevik revolution is at hand—and the soviet government still stands! Washington papers please copy." So writes the Rev. John Haynes Holmes in "Unity". Czardom stood in Russia for hundreds of years. It stood by the same power which sustains bolshevism—that of the bayonet. Seven hundred thousand communists rule Russia's hundred and ten millions. A standing army of a million with dissent from the policies of the party in power treated as treason and punished by imprisonment or death makes possible this domination of the inert mass of Russians after every Russian of independence has been killed or banished. Not so much to boast off! Not much for an American against whose form of government Trotszky with his million bayonets behind him, breathes threats and defiance to be friendly with. The permanency of tyranny is no tribute to tyranny. The Russian autocracy is principally important to Americans at this time as a working model of that bloody and ruthless tyranny its American friends would introduce if they could. The tyranny of the czars was evil enough but it was amateurish in butchery and absolutism as compared with that tyranny of the self-styled friends of the proletariat which has succeeded czarism. The autocracy of the czars did not fill the world with spies and propagandists in an effort to undermine the institutions of other countries. It was no part of its creed that the forms of government existing elsewhere in the world must be overthrown. When the fate of this republic was at stake and other old world powers were plotting its downfall or dismemberment, the fleet of the czar appeared in the harbor of New York as Santa Fe Helly Record-breaking handled without serious delay Since January 1st, 1923, the Santa Fe has purchased new equipment costing over $50,000,000, including 13,750 freight cars and 146 locomotives. It has spent $43,000,000 additional on new shops, terminals, double track, etc. As a result, from August 1st to November 1st, the Santa Fe Railway handled 48,395 cars of commercial freight in excess of any previous year—an increase of 9.7%—without congestion or any material delay. Notwithstanding the heavy calls, cars have been furnished practically on demand. In the few cases of local shortage, due to excessive local demand, cars have been furnished with such slight delay as to be negligible. Four years of legislative peace and fair treatment under the Transportation Act have been a vital factor in its ability to meet satisfactorily the record-breaking freight traffic of the past two years and maintain a surplus of cars at all times, barring local temporary shortages. State Adjutant Fisk is gathering in the colors for the parade demonstration for National Commander Drain. Legislation by congress to place all agencies effecting the care of the sick and disabled veterans of all American wars under the central control of the United States Veterans' bureau is to be asked next year by the American Legion Rehabilitation officers, State Adjutant, James K. Fisk has been informed by National Headquarters. The ten branches of the National Home for Disabled Volunteer Soldiers would come under the management of the Veterans' Bureau if congress approves the plan. POLISHING CONVERSATION A discriminating use of words in our conversation is not generally considered a national trait of Americans. Slang and profanity in all too frequent practice made us targets for criticism not only among ourselves but in quibs and retorts of our neighboring nations. We are not to be criticised too sharply for that, however, but more or less distinguished Americans have at times afforded us some embarrassment because of a loose tendency in colloquial and even public talks. A certain popular and sensation evangelist thrived on speech punctured with epithets and coarse slang. Carelessness in public speech as well as in private conversation has developed a shiftlessness in the use of English. And when words come too quickly there grows the use of stale slang and expressions both coarse and inane. The slang habit is doubtless due to a pancity of words; perhaps we would not cuss at all if we had on tap clearcut, effective language out of the vast reservoir of the American dictionary. A resolution was adopted for the condemnation of property of H. H. Harrington, and directing the District Attorney to bring the necessary action to acquire said property. A resolution was passed establishing the boundaries of the supervisorial districts of Orange county. It was ordered that an allowance, not to exceed $25.00 per month, for temporary care of dependent children be made. Expenditures to be placed in charge of County Aid Commissioner. The salary of Superintendent of Social Service was fixed at $165.00 per month, commencing January 1, 1925. The chairman and clerk were authorized to sign the agreement with the board of trustees of the city of Anaheim for meat inspection. The chairman and clerk were authorized to sign the agreement with the board of trustees of the city of Fullerton for meat inspection.

OMPTOMETRY QUACKS "Quacks" in the optometry profession have all been driven out of business throughout the state of California with one exception and the State Board of Optometry is hot on the trail of this, the last of the tribe, said to be a "quack" of many parts capable of operating in more than one place at a time, according to Dr. T. A. Brombach official of the state board. This alleged violator of the state optometry law, according to Dr. Brombach, is a wholesale optometry supply house the name of which the official refuses to reveal at this time. It is believed that this time it has on speech punctured with epithets and coarse slang Carelessness in public speech as well as in private conversation has developed a shiftlessness in the use of English. And when words come too quickly there grows the use of stale slang and expressions both coarse and inane. The slang habit is doubtless due to a puncity of words; perhaps we would not cuss at all if we had on tap clearcut, effective language out of the vast reservoir of the American dictionary. And now comes the cross word puzzle, its popularity extending over the continent, a contagion that touches the home, the community and the country, a rivalry for correct words that well parallels the interest in the world series of baseball. It is a good epidemic, a game that is well worth the candle, and the virus seems working true to form wherever planted. The search for the right word becomes a merry chase and carefully chosen language is the imperative rule of the sport. We can see the prospective benefit to the American people and can even hope for some pride in the correct use of our national vocabulary. Let the game go on, with all the encouragement that scholars as well as the game loving public can give it. We have not words to express our appreciation of the man who made the right use of language a fascinating sport which has now taken the stage in these United States. SUPERVISORS PROCEEDINGS A pool room license was issued to Juan Chavez, at Stanton for the balance of the year 1924. Map tract No. 710 was ordered accepted as the official plotting of said tract. Resolution was adopted fixing December 16, 1924 at 11:00 a.m. as the time for final hearing in the matter of road district improvement No. 30. Assessment on lot 12, block C Tr. 256, assessed to Benjamin R. Ford, was ordered cancelled, for reason that This alleged violator of the state optometry law, according to Dr. Brombach, is a wholesale optometry supply house the name of which the official refuses to reveal at this time. It is allege that this concern which has offices in various cities in the state, enters into agreements with practitioners whereby the latter make eye examinations without licenses to do so and wholesale house filing the prescriptions without being duly qualified by law to perform this service. This is said by officials of the state board to be and illegitimate scheme of a wholesale optical dealer to increase the sale of instruments and equipment and to earn money by taking half the fee which the practitioner collects from his patients. Scores of arrests have been made throughout the state for violations of this kind and many practitioners have been called before the board and tried for advertising cut rate prices and then selling their patients more expensive glasses on the pretext that their particular eye defects required certain special lenses that could not be sold at the cut rate price advertised, Dr. Brombach reported. As a result of the campaign which the board has carried on throughout the state for the past six months, all "quacks" and law violators have been rounded up and forced to cease operations, with the exception of the wholesale house accused of illegal practices, Dr. Brombach reported. Sufficient evidence will soon be in the hands of the authorities to convict the last of the optometric violators, the state official declared. It's the step on the gas that leads to the funeral march. $10 ANAHEIM First Mortgage Deed Dated October 1, 1923 GUARANTEED AS TO PRINCIPAL AND IN INTEREST PAYABLE April 1.

Regislative peace and the Transportation factor in its ability by the record-breaking past two years and of cars at all times, arbitrary shortages. Good service to the farmer is of the utmost importance when prices and crops in the aggregate are good. Inadequate railroad facilities cause freight congestion, delays, waste, and loss to everyone. The wholesaler, jobber, and retailer must carry heavy stocks and place orders well in advance, to make sure their shelves do not become bare. The farmer must store his grain and hold his livestock waiting for cars to ship to market. In a country growing like ours it is not easy to keep pace with such growth. During the war the railroads fell behind, as their expansion had to be deferred for more pressing matters. Today they are fairly abreast of the procession. They are pressing forward on a continued program of improvement which, with a continuance of present general conditions, will steadily extend their ability to serve. W. B.
