Local Brevities Capt. H. S. Warner of the Orange county motorcycle division, was in town a day or two ago, meeting up with old-time friends and acquaintances. Captain Warner, as he is familiarly known, has a good record as a peace officer and, while he has a man's-size job, the responsibilities of his office rest lightly upon his shoulders. George W. Sherwood, prominent Fullerton rancher, and J. Bonano, Los Angeles fruit peddler, pleaded guilty to a charge of shipping frozen oranges, and each paid a fine of $20 in Justice K. E. Morrison's court, in Santa Ana. Sherwood sold the oranges to Bonano, it was claimed. A. J. Gotlieb, horticultural inspector, discovered the transaction and swore to a complaint against both of them. The offense was committed Tuesday, it was claimed. Orange county clubwomen are looking forward with keen anticipation to the coming on Friday, November 13, of Dr. Mariana Bertola of San Francisco, state president of the California Federation of Women's Clubs, who will be given a luncheon at Fp. m. in the Santa Ana Ebell clubhouse, the Orange County Federation being the hostess organization. Mrs. Alex P. Nelson, county president, and Mrs. E. E. Knight, southern district president, will be present. Following luncheon, Dr. Bertola will give an address in the clubhouse auditorium. Those wishing to attend the luncheon will make reservations with Mrs. Jack Olvarri, 306 Orange avenue. Pleasant plans have been formulated by Mrs. Alex P. Nelson of Santa Ana for the transportation of delegates and others wishing to attend the convention of the Southern District Federation of Women's Club, to be held in El Centro, November 17, to 20. The Pickwick Company will run a special stage, leaving Santa Ana at 9:30 a.m., November 16, and arriving in El Centro in time for dinner, for $11.10 the round trip.

McWilliams has a force of 12 men cutting cane for the sorghum run. The early cold snap has ripened the cane and made it necessary to speed up the cutting. At the present rate it will take well into December before the harvest is over. Mr. McWilliams has about double the average of last year and the yield is very good. The McWilliams product is becoming so popular that the supply cannot be made to meet the demand. At present the syrup is being purchased as rapidly as it is made. Mrs. Anna McMinn, mother of Mrs. W. A. Browning, was knocked down and seriously injured when a machine driven by R.A. McCloud ran over her as she was attempting to cross Lincoln avenue, in front of the Browning home, about a mile west of Cypress. Mrs. McMinn, an elderly lady, was seriously injured about the head, but it was thought at the Artesia hospital that there were no fractures of bones. Mrs. McMinn started to step across the street to visit a neighbor, Sunday afternoon, at 4 o'clock, and became somewhat confused in the traffic. McCloud thought that she would wait for him to pass, and could not stop in time after he saw her intentions. McCloud is in the employ of the South Los Angeles Free Press. A Buick sedan was badly wrecked in a free-for-all collision which took place late Sunday evening at the Campbell fruit stand on West Lincoln. The Buick, owned and driven by Edward Lobner of Los Angeles, was proceeding west, when a Ford touring car swerved into it head-on. A Studebaker touring car, following closely behind the sedan, failed to stop and collided with the rear. No one was injured other than by shock. Anderson & Arnold have the sedan in their garage. The Oklahoma garage is fixing the Ford. The Studebaker was able to proceed on its way, a little worse for the collision.

Hope still is expressed for the recovery of Lois Clup, 12-year-old Fullerton girl, who was injured about two weeks ago in an automobile accident near the county hospital. Dr. D. C. Cowles, surgeon in charge of the little girl, said the girl is suffering from a fracture at the base of her skull, which has caused the cerebro-spinal fluid to leak through the ear. Although the leak has not been stopped, Dr. Cowles said its flow has considerably diminished. The girl is in the Anaheim sanitarium. Dr. H. A.

This fact and the nature of the high-school entertainment should fill the hall. Francis Stevens, a student at the local school, underwent a serious operation at the Children's Hospital, Los Angeles, last week, and has since contracted pneumonia.

No admission fee will be charged, and a cordial invitation is extended to everybody to attend. We commend Dr. Lovell for his scholarly attainments, the firm grasp which he has upon his subjects, and for his clear and convincing manner of presenting them. All the lilts that flesh is heir to he lays to dietetic errors. He urges people to eat fruit, vegetables and green stuff. He recently said that if he could prevail upon the children of the country to eat two oranges a day, he would consider it one of his life's greatest achievements.

The citrus day, October 31st various mills chiefs are to be made The grape deal valley has been superseded Under the cover of a Yakima Valley, Wash., cherry box, six navel oranges from New Orleans were found by representatives of County Horticultural Commissioner A. W. Brock's office and intercepted in their journey to a Santa Ana home. Brock ordered the fruit confiscated and destroyed, after finding the oranges badly infested with purple scale, mealy bug and what was believed to be melanose, a pest not now existing in California. The oranges were seized under authority of a state quarantine law, which prohibits importation of any citrus fruit in California. A deficit of $7500 exists in connection with finances of the last county fair, the county supervisors were told Tuesday afternoon, when members of the ferr committee appeared before the board to request an appropriation by quest was taken under advisement, but the county to cover the sum. The reit is understood that the supervisors are inclined to favor other means of meeting the situation. As it stands, 65 guarantors of the fair expenses are obligated to the extent of $100 each. Chairman T. B. Talbert, who is himself one of the guarantors, suggested to the fair committee that 10 more persons be found who are willing to contribute $'00 each, and the $7500 deficit be covered in that way. The Concordia Club held a celebration at the park on West Broadway, Wednesday, in honor of Armistice Day. Barbecued meats were served all day, and a band concert was held in the afternoon. The young folks also engaged in games and singing, and the night was spent in music and dancing. Mr. and Mrs. William Stark and son, Eldon, returned last week from a two month's visit to their old home in Wisconsin. They report an enjoyable visit greeting the friends of former days. Make Servants of All Great Rivers Science and the ingenuity of man are destined to turn rivers in this country into streams of perennial blessing, instead of remaining—as many of them now are—a source to those who live in their respective basins. The time is coming—and it should be hastened, here in California and throughout the Southwest—when the flow of every important stream will be controlled scientifically; when by a series of impoundments, surplus water will be captured and held imprisoned; to be used as man's needs demand; and when hydro-electric power of vast volume will be produced. Rivers, from time immemorial, have been sources of terror, destruction and ruin, through periodic floods. The great rivers-of China today, for instance, frequently in flood destroy thousands of homes and inundate millions of acres of land. Modern scientific methods of controlling floods point the way to obviate the terrible periodic losses from river overflows. Here in the Southwest, the need of ample water supply at all times is imperative. Just to impound and hold in reserve flood waters would be sufficient warrant for building great flood-control dams. But there is the added advantage of preventing flood losses, and the wonderful possibilities of hydro-electric development. ANAHEIM GAZETTE Fathers and Sons' Dinners This Week Most of Them to Be Held on Friday, the Thirteenth Plans for Father and Son dinners on Friday evening, the thirteenth, are taking shape in a way that indicates a large number of such gatherings in Orange County. In some cases, where it has not been found convenient to put the dinner on at the regular time, other dates are being selected, so that there will be a father and son dinner in a large part of the churches in the county this Fall. At Orange, the Methodist Church, the Presbyterian Church, and the Christian Church will hold dinners at the regular time, with the estimated attendance of about 500 men and boys. At Anaheim, the Hi-Y Club held its father and son event on Monday evening. The Baptist Church will put on a dinner on Friday evening. The Presbyterian and Evangelical Churches have already had their dinners, and the Methodist Church will hold one on the twentieth. Fullerton Methodist Church will observe Friday night. The Fullerton Hi-Y Club held its dinner on Monday evening, with S. C. Hartranft as sponsor. The Presbyterian Church has already held its dinner. The Baptist Church of Fullerton, and the churches of La Habra, Yorba Linda and Placentia are setting their dates for the near future. In the Santa Ana district, dinners are to be staged on the Friday evening at the First Presbyterian United Brethren, United Presbyterian, M. E. South, and Christian Churches, with probable arrangements at the Congregational and First M. E. The Baptist Church held forth on Tuesday evening. Garden Grove Baptist and Winterburg will use the regular date, and Tustin Presbyterian may be able to get ready for that time. At the First Presbyterian, it is announced that Frank Henderson of Orange, will be the principle speaker, and at the United Presbyterian, Provo Stormy of Pomona College, will Postpone Plans for Building Highway Capistrano-Elsinore Road Side-tracked for Year Recently discussed plans for forming a road district and constructing a highway from San Juan Capistrano across Sevier's pass to connect with Elsinore apparently have been shelved for this year, according to local officials. Following tentative adoption of a plan for financing the suggested $100,.000 highway by a road district, with the aid of the county as a whole and the United States forest service, the project was allowed to rest while San Juan Capistrano citizens worked out the details of a road district that was expected to include the three school districts of San Juan, Serra and Laguna. At meetings of the citizens with the county supervisors, it had been tentatively agreed that the road district should provide $40,000, the county appropriate $40,000, while the forest service had expected to provide $20,000. Since the last meeting with the supervisors, some weeks ago, nothing further has been heard from the San Juan Capistrano delegation regarding progress with road district plans. Local officials have concluded, they say, that the way has not yet been smoothed for such a district as that proposed. Meanwhile it has been brought to the attention of the officials that unless action is taken soon, the matter must be held in abeyance until next year. The forest service is said to be ready at the present time to make its road appropriations. Officials of the service are understood to be waiting for word of Orange county's intentions with respect to the Sevier's pass road, and presumably will omit the project from their list of appropriations for the year, unless informed of definite proceedings within the near future. Fred A. Staffel, San Juan Capistrano hotel manager and a leader in the road movement, verified the conclusion that his community would not proceed with formation of a road district this year at least. Crop Reports Show Profits of the Year Most Successful Year in Southern California History Pointing out that there has been a succession of profitable crops straight through the year, with few instances where no gain was made over last season, the agricultural department of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, in its regular monthly report, "Southern California crops," emphasizes the fact that 1925 will be one of the most successful years in Southland crop history. Since the movement of the Imperial Valley lettuce crop early in the year, there has been close to 100,000 carloads of fruits and vegetables shipped from Southern California, almost all of which brought good return to growers and shippers, the report says. The present outlook for the new navel orange crop is extremely bright, the Chafber of Commerce report continues. Picking started October 20, in Tulare County, and at this time, carload lots are moving into eastern markets, with the result that there has been little shortage of fruit between the valencia and the navel shipment. Due to the high price trend on Valencias throughout the last season, navels started off high, f. o. b. California quotations being on the basis of $7.00 and $7.50 per box. This means good money to growers. The quality of the new crop is said to be good and it is expected to run higher in volume than last year, when a short crop was known. The citrus year ended Saturday, October 31, and the reports of the various marketing association chiefs are to be released soon. The grape deal in the San Joaquin valley has been successful to almost all FALKENST ANAHEIM, 5000 Royal Society St Embroider Great Pre = Chri The fore-sighted gift-seeker will reopportunity to procure the ideal gift at Stamped Pillow Cases The fore-sighted gift-seeker will receive opportunity to procure the ideal gift at Stamped Pillow Cases White Clover Bleach Scarfs Damastrelle Scarfs in colors Linen Scarfs, white and colors Lunch Sets, white and colors Buffet Sets—4 different fabrics Vanity Sets—4 different fabrics Tan Needleweave Centers Tan Needleweave Pillows Glass Towels Huck Guest Towels Lovely Linen Towels ROYAL SOCIETY PARK 10 Pct Off the Ro Save This ROPER Installed Tomorrow!
