All the talent and ingenuity in Anaheim has been requisitioned to assist in designing these floats, and while nobody will know until they appear in exhibits will be like, something beautiful, unique and grotesque is expected. Hallowe'en is the season of "Harvest Home" celebrations. It is the season when the frost is on the pumpkin and the fodder's in the shock. It is the season when all mankind rejoices because the year's crop is garnered and safely stored away. It is the season when witches and black cats prowl about and take liberties denied them at all other times. It is the season when fairies, elves, impas, gnomes and other denizens of the underground world are privileged to come to the surface and turn things topsy-turvy. For this reason all these folk will take advantage of the opportunity and be conspicuous in the carnival tomorrow night. There will be no costly entries in this parade, and no money is being spent to make the displays conspicuous for their beauty, but all the exhibitors are endeavoring to create something unique, grotesque and befitting the spirit that animates the harvest home jollification. This is the third Hallowe'en carnival given here. The other two were howling successes, but this, it is promised, will far surpass them.

DISPUTE SETTLED OUT OF COURT Suit Against J. E. Schumacher Is Dismissed Dismissal in the Superior court of the suit of the Anaheim Co-operative Orange Growers' Association against Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Schumacher was followed with announcement by Schumacher that a compromise settlement, satisfactory to both sides, had been effected. Involving, as it did, an attempt on the part of the association to collect $2730 from the defendants for their failure to deliver to the association approximately 11,000 boxes of oranges produced on their grove in Anaheim, the case promised to be one of the hardest and longest drawn out legal battles in the court history of the county. The association sought to collect 25 cents for each box as a penalty for the defendants selling their fruit to an independent buyer. Mr. Schumacher said he never had refused to pay the penalty, but that he refused to settle with the association until he had been given credit for the 1924 refund and for back refund on packing house charges. Mr. Schumacher said that there was only $100 difference between the parties when the certits he claimed had been allowed, and that attorneys representing each party effected the settlement. The plaintiff was represented by E. O. Mathis, Anaheim, and Head. Rutan & Scovel of Santa Ana. Scarborough, Forgy & Reinhaus of Santa Ana represented Mr. Schumacher. It was considered a very significant feature in the catalogue of motor owners and chauffeurs registered by the California secretary of state in 1905 that there were 72 women who owned their own cars, and that 44 of these had the daring and the knowledge to drive them. place of business in Hallowe'en colors and emblems and set aside one window for the window contest.

CHARLIE LANDELL LAID TO REST IN ANAHEIM CEMETERY By the side of the graves of his parents, on Friday afternoon, the earthly remains of Charlie Landell were laid tenderly to rest in the tomb. A week before he stood beside their last resting places, bowed in sad and solemn contemplation. Friends and relatives came from near and far to attend the objections. From Los Angeles his aunts, Mrs. Shoemaker and Mrs. Moore; his daughter, Miss Helen Landell; Fred Shoemaker and Harold Butler, cousins; from Colorado, his brother, Gilbert; from Occaiside, his sister, Mrs. Daisy Landell Hargreaves; from San Juan, his brother, Justice John Landell, accompanied by his wife, son and daughter, and from Buena Park, his nephew Charlie Landell and wife. From Fullerton, Buena Park, Cypress, this city and Los Angeles many old-time friends gathered to pay the last tender tributes of respect. The gray casket was covered with beautiful floral emblems. Rev. Mr. Fisher of the Presbyterian church of Los Angeles conducted the burial services, taking for his theme the twenty-third psalm, "The Lord Is My Shepherd, I Shall Not Want." He spoke impressively as he consigned the remains to their last resting place. "Earth to earth, dust to dust, ashes to ashes." Many were in tears at their farewell to the dead, whom they had known in his lifetime for so many years, and whose untimely death came to them as a grievous shock. Charlie Landell was a visitor in town a week before he passed away, and met with many old-time friends and associates. It is learned that several months ago he suffered a stroke of apoplexy, and during the night which he spent here felt another attack of the malady coming on. It is believed these attacks affected his brain. He telephoned to Fred Shoemaker to come here and drive him back to Los Angeles. Several weeks ago, as he was about to enter a bank with a deposit of more than $500 he was held up by an armed bandit who, at the point of a gun, robbed him of his earnings. His home life had always been pleasant and his last meeting with his relatives had been such to indicate that nothing untoward was in his thoughts. He was beloved by all who knew him, and his death is sincerely mourned throughout the community.

Four stars of the first magnitude appeared on the concert stage. Miss Elizabeth Siegel charmed the audience with her sweet soprano in three German songs and the very beautiful "Vissl d'Arte Vissi d'Amore," by Puccini. She obliged with many encores, which she sang in English. Next on the program was Prof. Kurt Mueller, who played one of the most difficult pieces ever performed on the keyboard, scherzo and march, by Liszt. He made the Steinway sound like a whole orchestra. "Bercense," by Choprin, and "Etude," by Ruhanstein, were his next numbers. He also responded to many encores. Kammersanger Frederick Huttman, formerly from the Royal Berlin opera, brought the house down with his fine tenor and great artistry. REV. LEON MYERS RESIGNS HIS POLPIT ANNOUNCEMENT OF RESIGNATION MADE PUBLIC LAST SUNDAY Now Absent on Lecturing Tour, but States That He Has Received Call From Another Congregation and Feels It His Duty to Accept—Board Now Considering Appointment of Successor as Pastor of Church Rev. Leon L. Myers, for many years pastor of the Christian church here, has resigned his job and quit his pulpit. He is now absent on a lecturing tour. Orange Growers Installing Heaters But Anaheim's Frostless Belt Has No Use for Them Some orange county citrus growers were busy this week distributing heaters over their groves in order to prevent any surprise attack by their old-time enemy, Jack Frost. While, according to Harold E. Wahlberg, Orange county farm advisor, in charge of the agricultural extension service in this county, danger from freezing will not come until December, those growers who fight frost with fire are not inclined to take any chances with the vagaries of the weather and he caught napping. The orchard heaters in Orange county, for the most part, are seen in the La Habra valley, West Orange, Tustin, Irvine and Garden Grove. They have replaced to a great extent the black smudge pots which were used in those sections in former years. "Orchard heating is desirable in some sections of the county," Wahlberg declared, "both fro mthe angle of the growth and the quality of the fruit." Police Chief Says City Free of Crime Head of Anaheim Department Talks to Real Esate Brokers That Anaheim is exceptionally free from crime, the per capita percentage of arrests for criminal offenses being less than in any other city in the county and probably in Southern California, was the statement made by Chief of Police John Martin in a talk before the Anaheim reality board. "The bulk of police work here," said the police chief, "is in the traffic department. Anaheim shows an unusually clean bill of health as far as crime is concerned." The proposed tree-planting campaign for the city also was taken up by the reality men at their meeting, the organization deciding that active work be inaugurated immediately on the project. It was proposed that two or three varieties of shade trees be set out wherever needed for either shade or ornamental purposes. Attention was directed to the oriental plane tree, potted for its rapid growth and wide spread of foliage. The oriental plane tree was selected by Sacramento during that city's recent planting campaign. "Anaheim is far behind every other city in the county," said C. C. Sidnam, in the number of its shade trees. Civic pride, however, will not allow us to maintain this unenviable position. LAST SUNDAY Now Absent on Lecturing Tour, but States That He Has Received Call From Another Congregation and Feels It His Duty to Accept—Board Now Considering Appointment of Successor as Pastor of Church Rev. Leon L. Myers, for many years pastor of the Christian church here, has resigned his job and quit his pulpit. He is now absent on a lecturing tour, and a telegram to the official board announcing his resignation was read at the regular meeting of the board Sunday. The resignation was accepted without a dissenting vote, and the board is now engaged in seeking a successor. Rev. Myers stated in his telegram that he had an offer from another congregation, and he considered it his duty to accept it. During his career here, Rev. Myers made himself a consipuous figure, not because of his pastorate one of the leading churches, but because he was a foremost figure in organizing the local klavn of the Invisible Empire, Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, and served for a couple of years as cyclops of that order. He was the cyclops and chief counselor during the campaign which elected four members of the klan to the city's governing board, and he was cyclops of the order and one of the chief defenders of those members when they were recalled by the citizens. He has been one of the most conspicuous figures in Anaheim during his residence here, and his resignation from the pastorate of his church has caused considerable comment. Rev. Myers is an eloquent speaker, persuasive in his arguments, and if he had confined himself wholly to his pastoral duties, would have been a power for good in the community. But, unfortunately, he espoused the klan cause. Therefore, he was antagonized by a majority of the people outside his church, and even allenated a large percentage of his own congregation, as many refused to subscribe to the klan doctrine. Mr. Myers did not announce to the board the location of his new charge. He recommended as his successor a minister from Oregon, but it is understood the board has other applications on file, and as an investigation is necessary before making a choice, it will probably be some time before a new pastor is selected. TO TOUR WORLD IN SPRINGTIME Prepare to Tell Foreign Monarchs Latest Funny Stories Johnny Wallis has placed us under obligations for a sack of very fine new crop walnuts, grown in his orchard, freezing will not come until December. those growers who fight frost with fire are not inclined to take any chances with the vagaries of the weather and be caught mapping. The orchard heaters in Orange county, for the most part, are seen in the La Habra valley. West Orange, Tustin, Irvine and Garden Grove. They have replaced to a great extent the black smudge pots which were used in those sections in former years. "Orchard heating is desirable in some sections of the county," Wahlberg declared, "both fro mthe angle of the growth and the quality of the fruit. Frost affects the production of the tree for several years." The farm advisor said that about 1000 acres of citrus acreage would be heated with the little black pots this year, as compared with 700 acres last spring. The weather bureau will broadcast the temperatures to the citrus men by radio again this year. Wahlberg predicted. This service is made possible through the co-operation of Floyd Young, government meteorologist, of Pomona, who keeps in telephonic communication with his representatives over the citrus belt on nights when there is danger of frost or severe cold, it was said. To demonstrate the proper method of setting orchard heaters and explain how to get the most efficiency from them, a field meeting will be held November 19, at a Tustin ranch, at which Wahlberg and Prof. W. R. Schoonover, citrus specialist of the University of California, will speak. Battleships to Fight For Football Honors Arizona and Colorado Teams to Play Here Armistice Day Two highly touted football teams representing the battleships Arizona and Colorado have been secured to play in the Armistice Day game in this city on November 11, the athletic committee of Anaheim post of the American Legion announced today. While both teams are out of the running for the fleet title, both are rated among the best teams that are stationed aboard the ships at San Pedro, and each includes in its lineup a number of future admirals who helped make football history while students at the naval academy at Annapolis not many years ago. Considerable rivalry is said to exist between the crews of these boats and for that reason a large delegation from each is expected to accompany its football squad to Anaheim for this game. The presence of the naval teams with their large rooting sections is expected to attract a large crowd of civilian fans, and preparations are being made to handle a crowd that will tax the capacity of the Anaheim high school athletic field, where the contest will be played. TO TOUR WORLD IN SPRINGTIME Prepare to Tell Foreign Monarchs Latest Funny Stories Johnny Walls has placed us under obligations for a sack of very fine new crop walnuts, grown in his orchard, near the river. Johnny has been making these annual donations for many years, and his visits are as welcome as the flowers of spring. He has sold half of his orchard, and expects to sell the other half in the not distant future when he and his wife will make a tour of the globe. Johnny tells us he has no children crying for bread, and he intends seeing the sights of the world before it is necessary to make them in a wheel chair. He still retains the honor of being the champion story-teller, and when he gets abroad there will be hilarious laughter from the English channel to the Danube and beyond. He and his wife are very pleasantly situated at the Angelina hotel. He has been a hard working man all his life, but can attend a dinner dance and trip the light fantastic until the wee smal hours of the morning. He never grows old, and never tires of placing his friends under obligations to him. When it comes to doing the grand, Johnny is a shark. Mr. and Mrs. C. O. Humphrey of Anaheim have filed a suit in Superior court against Mr. and Mrs. Arthur H. Cohen, A. B. Prescott, A. E. Harris and William T. Wallop to foreclose a contract and quiet title to a lot, at Anaheim. The Humphrey's sold a nine-acre tract at North and Lemon streets, Anaheim, to Wallop, who subdivided the property. Prescott and Harris purchased one of the lots on contract, later assigning the contract to the Cohans. Wallop assigned his interest in the contract to the Humphrey's, who claim the Cohens have failed to make payments on the contract. The lady with the white bob will be very popular in Europe this winter, and the bob white will continue to be the most sought after bird in America. Considerable rivalry is said to exist between the crews of these boats and for that reason a large delegation from each is expected to accompany its football squad to Anaheim for this game. The presence of the naval teams with their large rooting sections is expected to attract a large crowd of civilian fans, and preparations are being made to handle a crowd that will tax the capacity of the Anaheim high school athletic field, where the contest will be played. Case Against Strain Dismissed by Court Following a second jury disagreement, the charge against Robert Strain accused of packing frozen oranges for shipment was dismissed Friday by Justice Kenneth E. Morrison, on motion of District Attorney A. P. Nelson. When dismissed at $ o'clock at night, after four hours of deliberation, the jury was reported as divided. $ 8 to 4 in favor of acquittal. It was the second trial of Strain, who is manager of the American Fruit Growers' packing house in Fullerton. He was charged with packing oranges having slightly more frost damage than allowed by law. His defense not only questioned the accuracy of the calculations by which the percentage was determined in his case, but put forth the plan of innocent intent and demanded "reasonable" enforcement of the law as opposed to "arbitrary" enforcement. The case was submitted to the jury without argument when the court indicated his intention of limiting argument to 10 minutes for each side. Deputy District Attorney D. G. Wettlin said he would not attempt to sum up the case in that period of time. Attorneys Stanley Reinhaus of Santa Ana and Sam L. Collins of Fullerton appeared for Strain in the case.

Various features planned as a part of the event are being handled by citizens' committees, and every member of the Legion is laboring feverily to insure the unqualified success of the program. 17 MEXICANS HELD FOR DEPORTATION 17 MEXICANS HELD FOR DEPORTATION Orange County's Population Figures Reduced Following a two weeks' investigation in Orange county, two members of the United States immigration bureau have rounded up 17 Mexicans and have deported them from the United States. The immigration officers have been working secretly out of the Santa Ana police department office, and almost daily have found undesirable aliens, who immediately were arrested and held in the county jail, pending their deportation. "Some of the Mexicans we have rounded up have been here almost long enough to have become citizens," one of the officers said. A Mexican who has been in the country for five years can not be deported, he explained. Illiterates must be in the United States for five years and literates must remain here three years before they can escape deportation, he said. The drive against Mexicans who have crossed the border into this country without the knowledge of Uncle Sam has been felt in various parts of the county, and the roundup has been swift and sure. It will be continued indefinitely, it was said. The men, working in uniform, have been seen on the streets of the city for the last several days. Occasionally they change to street clothes, and their workings have been more or less under cover all of the time they have been here. Fullerton Calls Off Its Peace Pageant To prove that there is not the slightest desire on the part of the Fullerton committee fostering the peace pageant planned for Armistice Day to hinder the county celebration at Anaheim, the group has voted to postpone the production. It was announced today. If the Anaheim program can be so arranged, however, the Fullerton pageant may become a part of it. It was stated by Dean W. T. Boyce. A committee from the Anaheim post of the American Legion called on Mr. Boyce early this week with the request that the date of the pageant be changed. They protested that the affair would become a counter attraction to the usual Armistice Day parade and pro- The historical parade to be held in the morning is one feature that is being prepared with great care under the supervision of J. A. Clayes, principal of the Anaheim high school. It is expected to prove a spectacular resume of the growth of California such as has never before been attempted. In the afternoon a sanctioned A. A. U. swimming meet will be held in the spacious outdoor city plunge, at which many of the leading swimmers of the Southland have signified their intention of contesting. Duke Kahanamoku has already sent in his entry for a special exhibition, and he will be accompanied by many other stars of the water. Although the plunge has been closed for the season, the city trustees have left it in shape for the use of the Legion for this special event, and Warren Ashleigh, superintendent of the park, and himself a prominent athlete, is assigning the athletic committee in arranging the details for the meet. There will be four events for women and a like number for men, according to the plans of the committee, and as a special feature of the meet the celebrated Duke Kahanamoku has promised to make an attempt to break several existing records. The city park plunge is 50 yards long and, with the one at Pasadena, is the only one of that length in the Southland, so that records made will be accepted by the A. A. U. Les Henry, chairman of the ruling body's committee on water sports is assisting in securing the entries of most of the prominent swimmers of the Southland for this meet. Football teams from the fleet stationed at San Pedro will play a game here on that day. This is the principal athletic event on the program and is expected to attract a record-breaking crowd of gridiron fans. Merchants of the city have arranged a Fashion Show, to be presented in the afternoon, in which beautiful models will display fall and winter styles in men's and women's wear. This feature of the program is heralded as one of the banner events of the day. In the evening a grand ball will be given at the Elks' clubhouse, and this is expected to be the crowning event of the day. During the day a full program of events, including dancing, will be given at the Concordia Club. Caterer Ed Duffy has made arrangements to feed 25,000 people at a monster barbecue, which will be given in the heart of the city, and he assures the committee that no one need go hungry. There are six Legion posts in the county, and each can be depended upon to do its part. The following list of SCHOOLS ASKED TO DESIGN EXHIBIT FOR ORANGE COUNTY All the schools of Orange county have been offered an opportunity to compete for a $50 prize, besides winning the prestige that success will bring, in designing an Orange county exhibit for the next National Orange Show, at San Bernardino. The chance was offered by the committee in charge of exhibit arrangements, through Dr. F. W. Slabaaugh, secretary of the county publicity department. Members of the committee are: Henry Welch, Newport Beach; George A. Raymer, Fullerton; J. R. Hunt, Drea; Thomas J. Pickerill, Placentia, and E. R. Walker, Yorba Linda. Any school in the county will be eligible for the competition and all are urged by the committee to try their skill. The honor of producing the county's exhibit is expected to draw many entries with the cash prize as an added incentive. India and its colorful characteristics will be the motif of the next National Orange Show, officials have decided, and the Orange county committee has expressed a preference for an exhibit designed in conformity with the prevailing scheme. There is believed to be wonderful opportunity for a beautiful effect in adaptation of the picturesque Indian architecture to an exhibit design. The prize will be awarded for the "best workable plan" for an exhibit to be submitted to the committee on or before November 18. The plan must be possible to construct for $1000 or less. The committee has outlined the following general suggestions to guide schools in the competition: 1. Floor size, approximately 20 feet square. 2. Height, whatever is required. 3. Center space in building will be used, requiring exposure of exhibit on four sides. 4. Use mechanical feature. 5. Prepare space for plenty of oranges. 6. Use ample illumination. 7. Submit sketch of each side, drawn to scale. 8. Use as far as is possible, the Indian idea, thereby harmonizing with the general scheme of decoration. 9. Mail sketch to county publicity department, Room 212, Hall of Records, Santa Ana.
