Walker Broadcasts Story of Anaheim
Pastor of Presbyterian Church Talks Over Radio
On the evening of July 11, the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce gave an entertainment at Long Beach, which was broadcast from KFON, Long Beach. The entertainment was mostly musical, but Rev. Thomas Holme Waller, pastor of the Presbyterian church, delivered an address on "Anaheim," which is here printed in full;
"The story of Anaheim is the typical California wonder story of far vision and sheer grit. It is the historic story of The Man With a Hoe," bent back, tired arms and all.
"But this Anaheim 'man with a hoe,' unlike his famous brother, when his day's work was done, lifts the clear eyes of the true pioneer and looks away to the fair prospect of his dream when the desert about him should blossom like a rose."
"The recent California Valencia Orange Show in Anaheim gave the more than 50,000 visitors an opportunity to see the realization of these dreams of the founders of the city, if we may not with as great propriety call them the builders of Orange county.
"And Orange county is well naged. Rich in its golden promises, there lies within its embrace the satisfying sweetness and healthfulness and beauty which in every age, have been the quest of man.
"Just a few miles away lie the hills and mountains out of which, as from Inexhaustible storehouses, runs life-giving water, making a good way through orchard and grove. These mountains have become the playground of the day-weary; the inspiration of mighty deeds and the awakener of bright hopes.
"If you turn your steps the other way, within a little there breaks on your vision the sweeping shore line of the great Pacific, of which the skimping old lady once said. Thank goodness there's something there's enough of."
"For in the distance lies Catalina professional life of the community and surrounding country.
"Its voice is heard as the accredited spokesman of the people, challenging the wide-awake and 'spurring' sluggards.
"Building on the sturdy foundation of the hard,' practical business sense of life olden days, the younger generation of Anaheim men and women have welcomed the inspiration and influence of such organizations as Rotary International, Kiwanis, Lions, a local City Club and the Business and Professional Women's Club.
"The standard yard and pound are not the only measures for barter and exchange. In Anaheim the purchasers will find those human amenities which make shopping a real pleasure; rather more of a recreation than the 'give and take' of actual necessity.
"Is it any wonder that the population of Anaheim has doubled within the last three years; that its bank deposits show a steady and healthy growth; that its citizens are the happy possessors of beautiful and well appointed homes; that new school buildings must rise to accommodate the increasing number of pupils knocking at the door for an education?
"That, best of all, the spirit of concord and a true fraternity is in the air we breathe; the handshake is hearty, and a mutual regard and esteem prevails. Success is not desired if obtained by climbing another's back or crowding him to the wall. We will prod each other in all good will, that each may be stimulated to do his best, for the success of the many means the greater happiness for all.
"Cleanliness is our becoming habit; courtesy the spirit of our humanity in all things, and a charity that breathes not envy nor speaks harshly pervades our undertakings.
"Look from Anaheim whichever way you will; the prospect pleases and the advantage appeals, and in the heart of it all lies Anaheim."
"Just a few miles away lie the hills and mountains out of which, as from inexhaustible storehouses, runs lifegiving water, making a glad way through orchard and grove. These mountains have become the playground of the day-weary; the inspiration of mighty deeds and the awakener of bright hopes.
"If you turn your steps the other way, within a little there breaks on your vision the sweeping shore line of the great Pacific, of which the skimming old lady once said. Thank goodness, there's something there's enough of."
"Far in the distance lies Catalina while at your feet are the ever-shifting beauties of sandy shore and beetling bluff, with here a smooth stretch of billowy surf and there the sharp break of thundering rollers against the jutting rocks. You may revel in it all without knowing why you enjoy it or sweep with an artist's defining eye the changing tints and forms of land and sea. And in the heart of it all lies fair Anaheim, Mother Colony, pioneer producer of 'Paradise Gardens' in Southern California; still young in heart and vigorous in purposeful endeavor.
"The old Anaheimmers had grit and vision and they bequeathed to their successors faith and courage.
"Blocks of modern, beautiful buildings, stores, hotels, churches, banks, schools and homes attest the spirit of progress and faith in the future of our city. From the throbbing center of the smartest business shopping district in Southern California stretch the great arteries of travel, highways for the coming and going of busy men and women and the practical seeker after opportunity. Avenues and boulevards reach out like welcoming arms to the home-seeker. These homes rise in individual character from the emerald carpet bordered with shrub and flowering plants to greet the prideful owner, weary from his business.
"Strategically situated are the 10 packing plants where the citrus and walnut fruits are skilfully packed for the eastern markets. The three trunk lines, Santa Fe, Southern Pacific and Union Pacific, giving Anaheim the ultimate service.
"In keeping with the best traditions of a home-loving people, the growing industries of Anaheim are placed in a tract of land belted by these three transcontinental railroads, supplied with an abundance of pure water and unlimited electric power.
"One may always learn from the recreations of a people what to expect in their business standards and their administration of city government. Are the people human, or just machines? Have they provided a quick 'getaway' from the fever and throb of business to the cool recreational shade and the stimulus of play?
"At an expense which at the time seemed to many foolish but which now we know to have been practical wisdom, Anaheim bought and adorned the most beautiful city park in all of Southern California. Characteristic of the spirit of the city are the signs in the park, for there are no 'forbidding' signs; instead you will read an invitation to..."
in their business standards and their administration of city government. Are the people human, or just machines? Have they provided a quick 'get-away' from the fever and throb of business to the cool recreative shade and the stimulus of play?
"At an expense which at the time seemed to many foolish but which now we know to have been practical wisdom, Anaheim bought and adorned the most beautiful city park in all of Southern California. Characteristic of the spirit of the city are the signs in the park, for there are no 'forbidding' signs; instead you will read an invitation to 'keep on the walk' when walking, but if you wish to recline in the shade, the soft allurements of the grass are all yours. From that vantage point you may watch at your ease the kaleidoscopic views of a city at play. Active boys and girls wading in the pool or swimming in the plunge; their elders, with grace and dignity, as befits their years, playing 'bowls' on the green, or under the friendly shelter, tackling the intricacies of checkers or chess. Ponds there are, where one may watch the goldfish lazily swimming and study the many species of water plants and flowers.
"Your fancy may turn to the more active play of tennis or baseball, where competition stirs the blood of participant and spectator alike. Recent installation of clusters of electric lights has made possible the playing of baseball at night. Eight teams are playing at present for the city championship. Nightly the commodious grandstand is packed to capacity with the 'rooters', who, in noisy energy, seek to match the strenuous playing of the young men of Anaheim, representatives of its industries and clubs.
"Here splendid friendly rivalry brings out the real underlying unity of our citizenship and speaks eloquently of future amity and understanding of the business, social and governmental life of our city.
"The religious organizations of the city reflect the best spirit of the various denominations, while the social and service clubs work together in unity for the city's welfare.
"The Chamber of Commerce embraces a full complement of the business and Bank, Charles H. Mann, Helen Louse Flower Shoppe, Farmers and Merchants Bank of Los Angeles, Anaheim B. P. O. E., Consolidated Ice and Cold Storage Company, Bank of Italy of Los Angeles, Goodrum-Howard Company, Mary Millerick Shop, Anaheim Bulletin, Sweetser & Baldwin, Los Angeles; Kafeteria Shoe Store, employees of the First National Bank of Anaheim, Heying's Pharmacy. Jackson's Men's Wear, California Theatre, Merchants National Bank of Los Angeles, Falkenstein's store. Anaheim Kiwanis Club, Quality Shoe Store, Hartfield's store, Alpha Beta Store. Stroup-Barnes Furniture Company, Mr. and Mrs. George W. Reid, F. A. Yungbluth, S. Q. R. Store. Adams-Bowers Lumber Company, Otille Steckert, and Anaheim Union Water Company."
Brunworth Sees New Variety of Wheat
While visiting friend near the Mexican border some days ago, J. H. Brunworth was shown a new variety of wheat that is being propagated by W. P. Wolfe on the Otay mesa. Several years ago Mr. Wolfe purchased a pound of this wheat in Palestine. The first year he harvested 33 pounds from his pound of seed. This year he is harvesting 80 acres, and estimates that he will have 800 sacks, or 10 sacks to the acre.
The remarkable thing about this wheat is that it grows without water after the plant is started—in fact, water is the ruination of it, causing it to stool and make a rank growth of straw without producing any grain. It will undoubtedly prove a valuable crop for the desert country where water is scarce. Mr. Wolfe has experimented with for years and, as he knows no better name for it, calls it "Desert" wheat.
Mr. Brunworth brought a number of stalks home with him for exhibition. The heads differ from the American variety as they stool, giving them a bunchy appearance.

Secretaries Boost For Orange County
Chambers of Commerce Men to Act as Publicity Agents
Secretaries of approximately ten Chambers of Commerce in Orange county will alternate in passing full days at the Orange county exhibit in the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce; it was announced by A. L. Olliger, secretary of the Santa Ana chamber, at a meeting of the board of directors of the organization.
This arrangement for having the county represented at the Los Angeles chamber was made by the secretaries at a recent meeting of the Commercial Secretaries' Association of Orange County, and is the result of discontinuance by the board of supervisors of the county publicity department.
The experiment is to be tried for two months and probably will be made a permanent arrangement if results are satisfactory. Under the plan, each secretary will have to go on duty for one day every 10 days.
Reopening of the fight for location of the Southern Branch of the University of California was indicated as a possibility by receipt of a letter from James S. Smart, enclosing a copy of a letter he received from James J. Simons of Wilmington, concerning location of the branch at Beverly Hills. Simons alleges that unfair political actions were responsible for selection of the Beverly Hills site and urges that communities outside of Los Angeles combine in a fight to prevent consummation of the program to establish the university branch on the proposed site.

LOCAL MAN TELLS OF ALASKAN TRIP
The Kiwanis Club was treated to a vivid and entertaining story of a trip through Alaska at its meeting on Tuesday, at the Elks' Club.
William T. Wallop of the Anaheim Union Water Company, with Mrs. Walop, who has recently returned from the northern territory, told the club of some of the features and marvels of the trip.
From Seattle, where the sea voyage on the steamship Jefferson was commenced, the speaker described the beauties of the inland passage, the magnificent scenery, numerous islands and narrow channels, giving one the impression of a giant river rather than the ocean. Towns en route were described, some being built on plains over the water. The beautiful trip through the Wrangler Narrows, totem poles, herring and salmon canneries, glaciers and wonderful vegetable growth of the northern land were all described in turn.
The railway trip from Skagway to White Horse, and the boat trip down the Yukon river to Dayson City, with the view of the midnight sun, were graphically portrayed. Dawson, originally a large mining center, now has but two concerns operating, the Guggenheim interests carrying on dredging operations, and a private concern still having an hydraulic outfit at work.
While in Fairbanks the travelers occupied the same suite in the hotel as was occupied by the late President Harding, when the latter visited Alaska in 1923. The city of Fairbanks boasts one of the finest mining schools in North America, the students, some 300 in number, being for the most part miners, who come in with the product of their toll for assay, and who remain and study the latest mining methods.
A 360-mile automobile trip over the Richardson highway, the trip over the Copper River Railway, operated by the Guggenheim interests in connection with their mines; the huge glaciers en route, the Childs and the Miles glaciers, and many other wonders of the Northland were described by the speaker.
Fourth of July was spent on board the steamship Yukon on the return journey. Mr. Wallop telling of the celebration arranged by the passengers, and of Mrs. Wallop's success in winning the prize at the masquerade ball in the evening for the best ladies' costume.
The Kiwanis Club will visit Orana suburban theatre in a body on Thursday evening of this week.

The design will be in the nature of a huge orange, which will open up at intervals. In the interior will be a miniature stage, with tiny mechanical players acting thereon.
The tents will be in place September 14. The site of the fair is Fifth and Poinsettia streets, Santa Ana.
