"Dress Well to Succeed" STETSON HATS You will recognize real style when you see the New Spring Stetson's. Right style, in the right colors. All in the well-known Stetson quality. SPRING STYLES For Young Men There is no problem to be solved in the selection of Stetson Hat. The variety of shapes is sufficiently large to insure a becoming style, and Stetson has attended to the quality. It is easy to pick your hat. F. A. YUNGBLUTH SPARKLING COMEDY IN NEW FOX FILM Have you ever had heebie jeebles, are you liable to an attack of them; what would you do if you caught 'em, would ou know if you had 'em? You think it's a joke, don't you? Well, just try to find out what heebie jeebles are, and you'll discover it's a pretty serious business. A girl suffering—if it can be called suffering—from a bad case of heebie jeebles can be seen in "The Great Diamond Mystery," Shirley Mason's new William Fox mystery drama coming to the Callornia theatre for Friday only. The allment makes her act in a very laughable manner. She shivers, uses slang and wishes for a sweetheart—all because of the heebie jeeble. The girl is Miss Jackie Saunders, and she has a very good comedy part in "The Great Diamond Mystery," which, by the way, is as entertaining a film as one finds these evenings. The picture is quite different from the usual kind of Shirley Mason production. The little star herself enacts the role of a young writer who has just completed a mystery story based on a theory in criminology that a murderer always returns to the scene of his murder. A tragic incident occurs which gives the young author a chance not only to prove her theory, but to save her sweetheart from the death-chair at the same time. "The Great Diamond Mystery" is good entertainment, thanks to Denison Clift, director; Shannon Fife, who wrote the story; Thomas Dixon, Jr., scenario writer, and a remarkably fine cast. Supporting players include Hardee Kirtland, Jackle Saunders, Harry von Meter, Hector V. Sarno, Willie Collier, Jr., Philo McCullough and Eugenia Gilbert. Orange county last year produced 4,970,470 boxes of Valencias, which brought returns of $15,247,735, according to the annual crop report of A. A. Brock, county horticultural commissioner. Total citrus fruit crops, including lemons and grapefruit, amounted to 6,038,942 boxes, which sold at $17,798,096. As already announced, the returns of the North Orange Citrus Exchange were the largest in its history. The Valencia bearing acreage of the county was 31,829 and the non-bearing 3082.

Dozens of styles, in fact in the wanted materials and the most desirable colors. The S. Q. R. Store The board of supervisors, following its regular custom, voted to appropriate $1500 from the county advertising fund for the California Valencia Show at Anaheim. Funeral services for R. J. Woolsey of Placentia were held at McAulay's parlors, Fullerton, Tuesday. He died at Camp Kearney hospital, after serving seven years in the navy. A. Hauser of Placentia, arrested by Deputy Ed McClelland, was arraigned before Judge Kuchel Monday on a charge of having intoxicating liquor in his possession. He plead guilty and was handed a fine of $300. Allen Nelson and Willis Burges are under arrest, charged with holding up and robbing M. L. Talles, a Westminster grocery man. They are Huntington Beach oil workers. The new city councilmen will hold their first regular meeting on Friday, the thirteenth, the fixed date for the meeting being a holiday. There is nothing fanciful or superstitious about that bunch of men. The Orange County Realty Association held its quarterly meeting at Orange Saturday, B. H. Sildnam of this city, president of the association, acting as coastmaster, following the banquet. The harbor bond issue was endorsed by the banqueters, as was also the Bastanchury university site. Gov. Friend W. Richardson is in Southern California this week, and will attend the meeting of the university regents, when a site for the Southern Branch will be under consideration. He expects to visit many points before returning to Sacramento, and may call on his old-time friends in Anaheim. Miss Dora Zeyn of Chino, formerly of Anaheim and a daughter of one of the founders of this city, was the guest of friends in town on Saturday. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Eastman of Santa Ana and Mrs. John Kuebler of Victorville, all former well-known residents of Anaheim, visited with friends in this city on Monday. Constable Ed Marion's car was bumped into by a machine driven by a Los Angeles man Friday. Both cars were damaged and one man slightly injured. Ed escaped without injury. Orange county is talking of a joint junior college, and Superintendent Mitchell recommends Orana as a suitable site. Orana is situated at the junction just south of the Chapman Street bridge. Frank Tausch's home was ransacked by burglars Thursday evening, while the members of the family were absent. Mr. Tausch states that, according to a check-up, articles totaling $419 in value were taken. W. O. F. Schwenckert of Los Angeles was in town Tuesday for a few hours, visiting his old friends. Mr. Schwenckert owns a big ranch in the Timoteo valley which he has set to walnuts and almonds. Sunday will be Anaheim Day at Camp Kearney. The American Legion Auxiliary will go down in a body, carrying presents to the sick and disabled in the hospital. A large procession will go from here, as all are invited. Gov. Friend W. Richardson is in Southern California this week, and will attend the meeting of the university regents, when a site for the Southern Branch will be under consideration. He expects to visit many points before returning to Sacramento, and may call on his old-time friends in Anaheim. The gasoline service station at 617 East Center street has been purchased from R. K. Harland by W. C. Watson of Orange and the name changed to the Watson Service Station. Mr. Watson says that he is finding business in Anaheim good. Mr. Harland is going to Florida, where he has extensive property holdings. Reorganization of the South Coast Improvement Association, consisting of civic and commercial bodies and city trustees from the cities along the Pacific Coast from Long Beach south to the San Diego county line, including all of Orange county, has been perfected. Meetings are to be held monthly at the Newport Harbor Yacht Club. Nine members of the city's police force presented a paper to the new board Monday night, offering to remain on the force, provided they were permitted to enforce the law without "fear or favor," as they had been doing in the past. The names of Chief W. B. Moody and Patrolman Marcus Andrade were not on the paper. The matter will probably be considered by the new councilmen at their earliest convenience. An exploding gasoline tank, the boulevard covered with blazing gasoline, two wrecked and burning automobiles and a large crowd furnished an exciting time Friday night, following the collision of a large automobile driven by Fred West with the car of L. E. Neeley, which was parked at the curbing on North Spadra road, Fullerton. West's car was practically destroyed and he and his daughter were seriously injured from the collision and the flames which covered both automobiles, following the accident. Everybody is wondering what will become of that little bill for $2800 presented to the city council for Barking dogs and fighting cats bored Albert Carls, 65-year-old resident of Santa Ana, so he eliminated the asserted animal nuisance by placing poison in places where it would be most effective. But, according to a complaint on which Carls was arrested by deputy sheriffs, the practice of placing poison in places where its consumption will result in an animal's death is contrary to the law, violation of which ordinance constitutes a felony. Four residents in the western section of Santa Ana and neighbors of Carls appear as complaining witnesses against the man, whose arrest was ordered by the district attorney's office. Carls, according to the officers, admits his guilt, but declares he Sunday will be Anaheim Day at Camp Kearney. The American Legion Auxiliary will go down in a body, carrying presents to the sick and disabled in the hospital. A large procession will go from here, as all are invited. Charles B. Wheatley's preliminary hearing on a charge of stealing $10,000 from the county treasury has been postponed until March 5. This is three days after the date set for his trial on the charge of forging a county warrant for $5230. Jess Vrooman, the veteran street sweeper, who has been familiar with moon signs from his youth up, declares that old Luna is surrounding itself with a set of rings and wrinkles now that are wholly beyond his powers of interpretation, and they may be of grave portent. Let's hope for the best. Being a teetotaler, nobody, of course, will believe that Jess tasted some moonshine before he observed the moon signs. A friendly suit to determine high tide lines on Newport bay has been decided upon by the Orange County Board of Supervisors. The county expects to secure a considerable area of tide land as a result of the suit. Development of Newport bay will be stimulated considerably by this action. This announcement was recently made by T. B. Talbert, chairman of the Board of Supervisors and director for Orange county for the California Development Association. "THE CIRCUS COWBOY" IS FULL OF THRILLS Charles Jones in "The Circus Cowboy," his latest William Fox production, which opens at the California theatre for Saturday only, is Jones at his best. It is a rip-roaring action picture which gives this popular star plenty of opportunity to act as well. Marlan Nixon, who has been his leading lady in several of his recent productions, furnishes the romance and in the colorful setting of the West and the "big top" there is enacted a drama of intrigue, love and men that will hold your interest throughout. The story is that of a cowboy who, accused falsely of shooting a man, outwits and outrides a posse and joins a bile driven by Fred West with the car of L. E. Neeley, which was parked at the curbing on North Spadra road, Fullerton. West's car was practically destroyed and he and his daughter were seriously injured from the collision and the flames which covered both automobiles, following the accident. Everybody is wondering what will become of that little bill for $2800 presented to the city council for services rendered in arresting five persons charged with bootlegging in the memorable raid staged by Starbuck, Myers and Stuelke. A similar bill, presented to the city of Fullerton, was held up by an injunction filed by Capt. Stanley Chapman, and no decision has yet been handed down by Judge Williams. Should the court decide that the charge was lawful, will Anaheim's new council pungle up? People are inclined to believe that $560 per is an exorbitant price to pay for running down bootleggers. ONLY A LITTLE JOKE The Democratic "play-boys" in congress who seized the opportunity the other day to move for the abolition of the tariff commission are already learning that their little joke does not meet with the approval of the people at large. During the last year a rather extraordinary change has taken place regarding the tariff board, which the Democrats apparently had entirely forgotten when they started their movement. The board has become a court of appeal for the farmers of the country. Its last most notable decision was made at a time when the wheat growers of the country were threatened with a large price depression due to an influx of Canadian wheat. It then moved under the law and provided an increase of 12½ per cent in the import duty, thus protecting the farmers. At different times also, the board has given its attention to the plight of our American cheese and butter makers and our poultry and egg raisers. Indeed, it has been made apparent that the tariff commission from now on is likely to play an even more im- FALKENSTEIN'S day, 150 Pair Stamped to Embroider Pillow Cases at $1.00 a Pair at $1.00 a Pair Anaheim plays a tightrope continually captivates the does it, she supports some extraordinals when an animal by the girl, loosens the tight wire while She falls, but inished to death, she ems of the big cow could they be but are Jack McDonMarguerite Clayton. and fighting cats, 65-year-old resitors, so he eliminated nuisance by places where it would But, according to which Carls was armeriffs, the practice on places, where its result in an animal's to the law, violation once constitutes a crime in the western Ana and neighbors complaining witman, whose arrest is district attorney's ordering to the offi-ill, but declares he important part by means of decisions similar to the wheat decision for the protection of the American farmers. When a market is so sensitive that the arrival in the port of New York of a butter steamer from Denmark with a supply hardly sufficient for one day's consumption in New York operates to depress the price of butter 2 cents a pound all over the United States, the need of an authoritative board with power to meet such conditions is self-evident. The blindness of Democrats who for a petty partisan victory seek to destroy such an organization is once again made plain to all. FARM LEGISLATION EXPECTED The possibility of effective farm legislation being enacted during the remaining days of the present session is admittedly growing quite dubious. President Coolidge, in appointing the agricultural commission to make a survey and suggest remedies, particularly impressed on the commission his desire for quick action. His position is unchanged, but the hearings which opened Monday, February 2, have already developed a decided division of opinion as to the proper remedies; in fact, a general confusion among the agricultural experts, which does not increase the chances of chalantly. "I'm waiting for the victor to take me to lunch." The foregoing is one of the many amusing situations to be found in "Born Rich," a First National picture produced by Garrick Pictures and directed by Will Nigh, which is the current feature at the California theatre for Sunday. While "Born Rich," which is based on the novel by Hughes Cornell, is a tense drama of New York society, revealing the heartbreaks and grief that even millionaires experience. Director Nigh has not neglected that most important ingredient of a good picture—humor. Therefore, while interest is never allowed to lag, the terrific suspense is lightened by comedy touches that make the picture a rare treat. In the cast are such noted players as Claire Windsor, Bert Lytoll, Cullen Landis, Doris Kenyon, Frank Morgan and Maude Turner Gordon.
