CORNER PHILOSOPHY Buried hopes need no tombstones. Arguing with a fool is like crying out in the wilderness. The surest place to find poverty is beyond your income. The hardest troubles to get rid of are those we borrow. A stitch in time saves nine out of ten embarrassments. The value of experience depends upon the dividends it pays. The thicker the skull the more easily the head swells. The world seems to be divided into the better class and the bitter class. You can't be an easy mark and make your mark in the world. A man doesn't need a big force of help to harvest his wild oats. Some men can't let an idea strike them without making them senseless. Every marital union is a company with one silent partner. A man in love will do anything, but he usually does nothing. The most prevalent beauty contest is the race against time to remain beautiful. Some of us never know what we want till we are satisfied we can't get it. Some fellows never take a stand as long as they can run. After all, it may be better to see roses on girls' knees than blossoms on men's noses. Paying cash for what you want is a good way of breaking the habit of wanting so much less than it lent. Which is nothing to worry much about, but a matter of interest, nevertheless. It might be worth while to consider this possibility in figuring out all funding plans contemplating payments over a long period of years. Also in long-term leases. It is also just as well for financiers to keep in the back of their minds the possibility, however remote it may be, of gold being manufactured some time in paying quantities for base metals. Sooner or later, in the history of mankind, a time may come when the fable of Midas and his gold shall come true on a big scale. MIND OWN BUSINESS The calendar is becoming so cluttered up with special weeks set aside for various causes that President Norton of the University of Colorado has appealed to Governor Morley to designate a "mind your own business week" before all the dates have been appropriated. The professor is of the opinion that a large number of animated public nuisances are devoting attention to standardizing humanity and centering public attention on the sins of others. He finds no fault with this during fifty-one weeks in the year. During that time he is willing to celebrate "eat more salt week," "wear a derby hat week," "clean up your backyard week" and forty-eight other mandatory anniversary weeks. But for just seven days out of the three hundred and sixty-five Professor Norton wants to be reminded of the good old days when he could eat, wear and work as he pleased and walk where he pleased so long as he stayed off other people's toes. During those seven days he wants official authority for telling busybodies to "mind your own business." Then he is willing to put on the halter again. NOTICE OF SALE OF REAL PROPERTY BY TRUSTEE UNDER DEED OF TRUST Whereas, Richfield Petroleum Company, a corporation, as trustor, dld, on the 17th day of March, 1922, execute a certain deed of trust dated March 17th, 1922, to the Abstract & Title Guaranty. Some of us never know what we want till we are satisfied we can't get it. Some fellows never take a stand as long as they can run. After all, it may be better to see roses on girls' knees than blossoms on men's noses. Paying cash for what you want is a good way of breaking the habit of wanting so much. The person who lives to a ripe old age just drops off instead of being knocked off. Love's blindness is not incurable. Otherwise there would be no breach of promise suits. Usually the man who flees from temptation is known to be a poor sprinter. Love is the quality that makes a young man forget how many times two will go into $22 a week. In the old wet days nobody realized how much oratory depended on a few drinks in the listener. Late reports from heaven show that the total number of those sent there by man-made statutes is .0000. Many a fellow who was head of his class in college wears the dunce cap in the school of experience. A law abiding citizen is one whose intentions are good; he doesn't really know all the fool things. Some ministers do not practice what they preach, and some baseball players do not play as they practice. A single man is known by the company he keeps and a married man by the pants he keeps. The father of a family always tries to bring up his children in the way he should have gone. There is only one thing worse than having a wife who can cook and won't. That's having one who can't cook and will. The best way to gauge the worth of religion is to observe how men live who haven't any. Lots of us never get any bouquets thrown at us until the day of the funeral. A husband is a man who thinks he is chivalrous when he lets his wife have her way and grouches about it. The one time a fellow is eager to work overtime is when he makes a fool of himself.

A husband is a man who thinks he is chivalrous when he lets his wife have her way and grouches about it. The one time a fellow is eager to work overtime is when he makes a fool of himself. A philosopher is a chap who can always see the silver lining of the other fellow's cloud. Some headway has been made in the matter of education, but there still are people who will buy furs from street peddlers. Today's Poem There was a young maiden named Lena Who used a vacuum cleaner; She got in the way of the vacuum one day And since then no one has seen. MORE GOLD PRODUCED With the finding of the "lost main reef" in the Transvaal gold field, a big increase in gold production is expected. Half the world's gold production comes from there already. Now another great source of supply is tapped, far down in the earth, but capable of being worked. This factor alone, it is suggested, will have a bearing on the payment of war debts. And not only Great Britain's, but those of all the other debtors. For more gold anywhere means cheaper gold everywhere. Other gold mines are likely to be discovered, with production continuing to increase. The metal used as a standard of value, which as economic history shows has been getting steadily cheaper for centuries, will doubtless continue depreciating. Thus even if the United States had its war loans repaid dollar for dollar, it would probably get back a good deal Whereas, a breach and default under the terms of said deed of trust and under the terms of said note occurred, in that the principal due March 17th, 1925, and in that the interest accrued to June 17th, 1925, as above provided, was not paid; and Whereas, the said Charlotte E.

Spurgeon Gives Some Interesting Facts About Early History of Santa Ana and Other Sections of Orange County. Edwin McFadden of Santa Ana, son of John McFadden, pioneer resident, delivered a very interesting address at the meeting of the Lions' Club, held at the Santa Ana Country Club on Thursday, when he referred at length to the settlement of Anaheim and the later developments of Santa Ana and Orange county. These topics are full of interest to the citizens of this section, and Mr. McFadden showed himself to be possessed of much valuable data relating thereto. More than a hundred people were present and listened to the address attentively throughout Anaheim, he said, was the first place in the county to be settled. The pioneers came from San Francisco, and turned the desert into fruitful fields of vineyards and orchards. "George Hanson developed the colonization scheme by interesting a number of German friends in San Francisco in the project, securing 1165 acres for $2 an acre, including water rights. He split the tract into 50 20-acre parcels, 50 house being built." The most or made last year. Planted to fruiting years or assessmenl themem. When south proper followe section stores.

He had 20-acre parcels, 50 house lots and 14 village lots, the latter being reserved for schools and public buildings. "He dug a ditch seven miles long to bring water to the tract from the Santa Ana river, and put in 450 miles of laterals to carry the water to the lands. "His San Francisco friends interested themselves in his project and accepted tracts and caring for them for three his proposition of planting the various years. On each 20-acre tract was planted eight acres of vines, the balance to fruits and other crops. In three years each individual had paid, through assessments, $1200 and in the final settlement each received back $120. "When the San Francisco group came south to claim their possessions, the property was divided by lot, and then followed development of the business section, for the newcomers built homes, stores, school houses and a hotel. "A thriving town was instituted almost over night. The settlement was made in 1857 and in 1872 only one settler had left the place. The sheriff had never issued an execution in Anaheim." The speaker said that the Anaheim Water Company was organized in 1860. The Cajon Water Company was organized in 1877, and two years later was sold to the Anaheim Water Company. The Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company, he said, was created 10 years later. Development of Orange county was initiated when Abel Stearns of Los Angeles acquired seven of the big ranches, all west and north of the Santa Ana river, and in 1868 took in a group of six men and organized the Los Angeles and San Bernardino Land Company. The company offered the holdings in small parcels. Centralia and Orangethorpe, west and north of Anaheim, were the first communities. W. H. Spurgeon, Jr., son of the founder of Santa Ana, also delivered an interesting address on early days. Mr. Spurgeon related some of the history of Santa Ana, telling of his father's location here and the founding of Santa Ana in 1869, establishment of the Tustin district by the Tustins and Orange by Glassell and Chapman. He declared that his father's total capital upon arrival in Santa Ana was $1000. The original townsite of Santa Ana consisted of 24 blocks, bounded on the south by First street, west by Broadway (then West street), north by Seventh, and east by Spurgeon street. The postoffice was established in 1870, and the Southern Pacific line was extended from Anaheim to Santa Ana in 1878. The Santa Fe came in in 1887. Santa Ana was incorporated in 1886 with a population of 2000 and as a city of the sixth class. Organized by James McFadden and brothers of the Newport Wharf and Lumber Company, in 1888, was followed by the building, by the company, of the railroad to Newport Beach, where the company had established a wharf for the unloading of vessels delivering lumber to the company. Drying yards of the company in Santa Ana were at time the largest on the coast, and lumber was distributed from here to various parts of the state. Spurgeon cited the opening of the Pacific Electric line from Los Angeles in 1906 and declared that this community made a grievous error when it permitted the lapse of the annual parade of products, instituted here about the time of the coming of the electric line and maintained for a few years following.
