Merchants report a much larger trade than last year, indicating that the community is more prosperous, and also that Christmas shoppers are wiser than they were a year ago, and are buying at home. Sales have been heavy in certain lines of goods. A local jeweler described the holiday trade as somewhat peculiar in nature in that some lines were going much faster than others which have previously held preference. He announced an unusual demand for ivory sets of different kinds and said that he had been compelled to send in orders for additional ivory sets on several occasions and now had three more orders than he could fill. A number of instances in which vacuum cleaners and washing machines were purchased as Christmas presents were cited by an electrical house as proof of the theory that Santa Claus is growing logical as well as generous. Anaheim people were privileged to see Santa Claus and his six reindeer Monday. The old saint rolled in at 10:45 in the morning, but his faithful caribou were so exhausted that he was carrying them on a truck. Few people in Anaheim had ever before seen a live reindeer, and one spectator described them as Jersey cows equipped with deer horns. At Santa Ana, it was announced, they would be dismounted from the truck hitched to the sleigh and driven through the streets at 2 o'clock. There were several Esquimo Indians with the outfit, and Ook Wat, the man who sprang into national prominence by carrying the diphtheria serum into Nome to save the lives of children, was one of them. Ook drove a dog team several hundred miles, and made one of the most remarkable trips ever recorded. He got through after losing several of his dogs, and saved the lives of many children. Ook made a speech in front of the city hall, and while his body may be strong his voice is weak, and few of the thousands who gathered to see Santa and his famous team, could hear what he was saying. However, the people were satisfied. They saw Santa Claus, they saw his world-famed team of reindeer, and they saw Ook Wat, also several other fur-clad Esquimos who accompanied the party. In the stores of Anaheim the holly and the mistletoe, also the evergreen Christmas trees are among the best sellers and tonight hundreds of little trees will be set up in private homes to gladden the hearts of the little folks. This is the happiest season of all the year to Rum Investigators Must Pay Penalty Decree of Superior Court Upheld By Court of Appeals Reversing the Orange County Superior Court, a decision of the District Court of Appeals announced Wednesday denies a new trial to Mrs. Beverly Ward and three other operatives of the Anti-Saloon League, who were convicted of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, while gathering evidence for the county-wide liquor raids a year ago. Under the higher court order, the defendants must appear in Superior Court for sentence. The Appellate Court sustained an appeal by District Attorney A. P. Nelson, from an order by former Judge Frank C. Drumm, who granted Mrs. Ward and her associates a new trial following their conviction. The appeal is unique in Orange County court annals. So far as county officials are aware, it is the first time that the prosecution ever appealed from a court ruling granting a new trial in a criminal case. Mrs. Ward, who was the wife of Edward S. Ward, chief of investigators, employed to get evidence prior to the Orange County liquor raids of November, 1924, was accused with three other operatives of contributing to the delinquency of a minor, Ivory Shields, 20 years of age, of Santa Ana. It was claimed that they induced the youth to purchase liquor for them and then gave him some of the liquor. He was arrested in the subsequent raids and charged with possession of liquor. Mrs. Ward, with Mr. and Mrs. E. R. Wall and Frank Martin, were found guilty of the charge against them. Their attorney, William P. Kendrick, Jr., moved for a new trial which Judge Drumm opened, when it was shown that two members of the jury had heard portions of testimony at the preliminary hearing and at the Shields trial in City Recorder's Court. Their jurors admitted their presence at the previous proceedings, but said they had formed no opinion. One of them even declared that his sympathies were with the defendants. Deputy-District Attorney D. G. Wettlin opposed the granting of a new trial. When it was granted, the district attorney appealed on the ground that the qualifications of the jurors should have been challenged at the time they were examined for service, and could not be questioned afterward. This contention was upheld by the Appellate Court, which reversed Judge Drumm's order. Argument had been presented before the court both on question of law and on the evidence.

Elliot Colt, avocado expert, in addressing the Association of Orange County Horticultural Inspectors at the regular December meeting held at a Santa Ana cafe. Dr. Colt, who is recognized as one of the leading authorities on avocado culture, touched particularly upon varieties, insect pests, plant diseases, propagation of avocado trees, care and culture of orchards, quarantine matters. Southern California and Orange County avocado growers should guard against the entry into California of the insect pests which have attacked Florida avocados, especially the diyospermum scale. Dr. Colt said, this pest being as serious in Florida as the red scale on lemons in Southern California and causes the Florida growers the same amount of worry the red scale does the Southern California lemon growers. The speaker declared that 70 per cent of the avocado growers of Southern California had signed up for membership in the Avocado Growers' Association. Thousands of dollars will be saved by means of the sale of culls by freezing them and using them for making ice cream and filling for sandwiches, Dr. Colt revealed. At the present time the demand for avocadoes exceeds the supply. Dr. Colt said that one Southern California woman had received a return of $3000 from 14 trees. It was estimated there are 500 acres of non-bearing avocado trees and 100 acres of bearing avocado trees in the county. A. J. Gottlief of Orange was elected president to succeed W. H. Wright. Dixon Tubbs was named secretary. The association meets once a month. Denied Alimony Increase Mrs. Mamie Hushman, of Anaheim, was getting $200 per month allotment from her husband, Gustave Hushman, filling station proprietor. He also supplied her with a house and she had the family car. Besides that, he was paying for her operation. But she wasn't satisfied. On Friday she appeared before Superior Judge R. Y. Williams and demanded $300 per month allotment. She also wanted $1,000 attorney fees. The court learned of existing financial arrangements between the couple and decided that Hushman was already doing his part, and a little more. The $200 allotment was enough and $150 as attorney fees would be sufficient, said the court. He also ordered Mrs. Hushman to turn the automobile over to her husband for use in his business. Hushman conducts a service station in Anaheim and another at Huntington Beach. An had received a return of $3000 from 14 trees. It was estimated there are 500 acres of non-bearing avocado trees and 100 acres of bearing avocado trees in the county. A. J. Gottlief of Orange was elected president to succeed W. H. Wright.

CLARKE'S NOTABLE RECORD E. P. Clarke, editor of the Riverside Press, has a very interesting reference to his forty years of newspaper work in Southern California. In a copy of the Press which has just reached us, Mr. Clarke and his brother A. F. Clarke, started the Ontario Record in 1885, and nine years thereafter, he and his brother moved to Riverside, where they purchased the Press, which had been established a number of years before by L. M. Holt under the name of the Press and Horticulturalist. All of these incidents are perfectly within our recollection. We met Mr. Holt on Spring street in Los Angeles a number of years after he sold his paper to Mr. Clarke. He had not met him in several years. He was trudging along as we came up behind him and accosted him. "Hello, Mr. Holt," we observed, "How are you? Are you still in the newspaper business?" "Oh, no, no. I have reformed," he said with a smile. "I have sold out to Mr. Clarke." Under Mr. Clarke's able editorial management, the Press has come to be one of the strong interior dailies of Southern California, and it has had much to do with the upbuilding of that favored section. It was one of the first to advocate AMERICAN LEGION BANQUETS NEW OFFICERS STATE COMMANDER BIXBY AND CITY OFFICIALS AMONG GUESTS Bixby, Mayor Mathis, Sheriff Jernigan and Joe Plank Make Stirring Addresses to the Buddies—Paul Tedrick is New Commander of Anaheim Post, Elected After Spirited Contest DELPHIANS MEET Anaheim Delphians and their friends were specially privileged at the meeting Tuesday, in having an art exhibit, the work of Mr. Paul Connor of Long Beach. Mr. Connor is an American and his pictures shown at the Elkg Club house were all of Southern California. This exhibit was brought about through the efforts of Mrs. H. F. Dierker, a personal friend of the artist. The program, in charge of Mrs. C. F. Grim, consisted of the following numbers: A reading, "The Birth of Christ," by Katherine Ann McCullah. Solo, "It Came Upon the Midnight Clear," and an "Old Christmas Carol," by Mrs. H. K. Carlin, accompanied by Miss Kathryn Stewart. Reginald Taylor delighted his audience with "Why do the Nations so furiously rage Together," by Handel, Mrs. C. A. McCullah, accompanied. Mr. Taylor responded with "The Song of the Flea." The "Spirit of the Renaissance in Painting," was ably given by Mrs. C. W. Austin. Mrs. C. F. Grim gave a very interesting story of her visit to the Sistine Chapel. Mr. Paul Connor could not meet with Delphian ladies, and Mrs. H. F. Dierker Under Mr. Clarke's able editorial management, the Press has come to be one of the strong interior dailies of Southern California, and it has had much to do with the upbuilding of that favored section. It was one of the first to advocate the creation of Riverside county, and the formation of that county is largely due to the efforts of that newspaper. We have known Mr. Clarke quite intimately for all of these years, and we have uniformly found him to be ever on the side of the right. We have had some differences of opinion with him regarding the qualifications of certain politicians of state-wide reputation, but on the whole we have found him to be a man of good judgment and a square shooter. We are glad to know that he has prospered, and we hope that he has many years of usefulness in the newspaper business ahead of him. Mr. Clarke began his newspaper work at Ontario in 1885 by acting as roller boy while his brother manipulated the Washington hand press. Fifteen years before that time the writer was employed as roller boy on the Gazette Manuel Gaffias, a cousin of Fred C. Rimpau who still resides in this city was pressman. The paper was printed late at night, and sometimes it was after midnight before the edition was off the press. We soon tired of the late hours, and on the evening of one press day we went to our home, across the way, telling our mother we had jumped the job. Manuel came over and carried us back to the office and George Washington Barter, the editor, told us the Gazette could not come out unless we rolled. Thus cajoled, we continued on the job, and years later learned to work the man killer. Seventeen years later we purchased the paper. During the intervening years we worked for Col. H. G. Otis, Col. H. Z. Osborne, J. D. Lynch and Col. J. Ayes, and on the San Diego Union worked with Sciplo Craig, years before Redlands was thought of. We were on the San Francisco Examiner when Wm. Randolph Hearst came out from Harvard and assumed control of that newspaper. We set up copy for Ambrose Bierce, Arthur McEwen and many other notable writers of those early days. We were in San Francisco when General Grant came around the world in 1879, and we had the distinction of seeing that gentleman, his wife and his son. We mentioned this incident to Mr. Grant at the Coronado hotel a number of years ago. We were in San Francisco when General Grant died. The city had been profusely decorated with flags and bunting on his arrival from Japan and there were "Welcome" signs in all of the shop windows; we never saw such magnificent decorations. When he died, the city was garbed in somber black, and a great funeral cortex passed down Market street. In Los Angeles several months before, General Bixby, Mayor Mathis, Sheriff Jernigan and Joe Plank Make Stirring Addresses to the Buddies—Paul Tedrick is New Commander of Anaheim Post, Elected After Spirited Contest Honoring the newly elected officers, and entertaining the state commander as well as city and county officials, Anaheim post, American Legion, gave a banquet at the Legion rooms Friday evening. The new officers of the post are: Paul Tedrick, commander; Clark Chamberlain, first vice-commander; Ralph L. Cox, second vice-commander; J. W. Hebson, adjutant; C. E. Griffith financial officer; Otto Puchert, chaplain; Earl Crist, sergeant at arms; R. E. Smith, historian; Wm. P. Webb, service officer. The executive committee is composed of Paul Tedrick, J.W.Hebson, C.E.Griffith, Dr.H.C.Wilhelm, Earl H.Fulfer, Sam L.Snodgrass and E.R.Sherman. Allen B. Bixby of Pasadena, state commander, was the honor guest at the banquet and made an address. Joe Plank, of Santa Ana, chief de gare of Orange County Voltage 40 Hommes et Chevaux; Sheriff Sam Jernigan and Mary Perry W. Mathis, of Anaheim, were among the guests of honor and each spoke briefly upon the Legion and its work in California. After outlining briefly the work of the Legion organization, Commander Bixby uttered a stirring appeal for increasing the membership of the organization to include every eligible ex-service man in the state. e.a.eFffSfEChERVzeetnoin ETAOIN While a Legion and auxiliary dancing party was successfully under way in Craig hall, Brea, Commander Bixby and his party paid a surprise visit and made a gala occasion of the affair by taking part in the evening's program. The dance had been planned as a benefit for the disabled veterans at Camp Kearney, and northern Orange county had responded to the broadcast invitation by crowding the hall to capacity. The walls and ceiling of the large room were decorated with Christmas hangings and dancing was under way with Rollin's Rollickers furnishing the music when Commander Bixby was announced. Apologizing for taking up any time at a social function, Bixby complained the Brea organizations on the success of their efforts, and told of the good work for the disabled being done in countless communities by the Legion auxiliary. He promised to come back to Brea on February 2, when he will deliver a full length message of Legion activities.

Mrs.Nellie Terry gave a very interesting report of a recent district assembly meeting held in Long Beach. A number of the members remained for lunch at the Elks Club, where a most interesting social hour was passed. Fifth Annual Tractor Show Anaheim High School Shops January 18-22 The Agricultural Extension Service is offering its fifth annual week of instruction in Orange County in tractor maintenance and repair at the Anaheim High School shops, January 18th to 22nd, inclusive. The course will consist of lectures, demonstrations, and practice work on adjusting, repairing and overhauling. About two hours each day will be spent in lecture demonstrations, covering such subjects as gas engine parts and principles of operation, fuels, magnetos, cooling systems, lubrication, transmission of power, tractor operation, adjusting, dust control, etc. Practice work will be given the remaining six hours in the shop. This will consist of shop demonstrations in adjusting, timing, trouble shooting,and overhauling of used tractors. The shop work will be divided into three parts: (1) bench repairing, work on tractor parts,and making such replacements or adjustments found necessary.(2) magneto and valve timing,burette adjustment and trouble shooting.(3) repairing of used tractors. This school is primarily for the tractor owner that he may develop greater self-reliance in repairing and caring for his tractor which will result not only in longer life and greater field efficiency,但 in economies in operation and maintenance. Tractors repaired at the school are supplied by men attending the school as no tractors are accepted for repair work unless accompanied by the owner or his representative. Individuals wishing to enter their tractor should do so in the near future as only a limited number can be accepted. The school will be conducted by three instructors, J.P.Fairbank, Extension Specialist in Agricultural Engineering; Tumblers;the ice;the experiencuided bythe brought toclock.T dangerous "Poultrymen by chicken then use their gun to can arrive,ahe refuses to halt."

It is reported by various packing house managers. Returns on supplies of this fruit, shipped from the Southern California navel belt, are averaging approximately $3.49 a box. For some time the Tulare district was the only navel belt in California represented on the early eastern markets, but recently shipping of the winter fruit has commenced in the Redlands-Riverside area. About seventy-five cars remain for shipment in the latter section, distributors report. With the exception of six cars, shipped for the Christmas trade, in the Northern Orange county no navel shipping has been done in this district and none is expected to be done until after the first of the year, distributors here declare. With the navel season expected to open in the Anaheim section within the next thirty days, distributors are keeping check on the ripening of the fruit. Samples from groves of thirty members of the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Association, located in representative sections of the district, have been taken by officials of the association and careful tests for sugar content made, W. R. Schureman, manager of the house, asserted. According to present indications, as shown by the tests, Schureman said, the navel crop in this district, is ripening satisfactorily, but it cannot be expected to be ready in quantities sufficient for commercial handling until well after the first of January. Miss Katherine Adams, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry M. Adams is at home for the holidays. Miss Adams is a student at Pomona College. DEATH OF PIONEER William Henry Coughran died on Tuesday afternoon at his home near Buena Park. He was aged 78 years and was a native of Wisconsin. He spent the greatest part of his life in the west, having lived on the ranch where he died for 21 years. He is survived by his wife Jennie Coughran and one son and one daughter, all of whom reside near Buena Park. Funeral services were held on Thursday afternoon at 1:30 p.m. at the Huddle Funeral Parlors. Interment was in Graceland cemetery near La Mirada. Deceased had been a Mason for 57 years. Tex Choate drove up from Huntington Beach the first of the week and spent the day with friends in town. Tex has been a member of the police force of the coast town since severing his connection with the force in this city five years ago. He says that quantities of moonshine are being illegitly landed on the coast for the Christmas trade, but that much of this, instead of being liquor from abroad, is manufactured on vessels beyond the three-mile limit. These vessels are visited by boats from the shore conveying them corn and sugar and cheap moonshine is returned to be sold at high prices.

The accident occurred at 8:30 oclock. The driver of the car apparently lost control on that dangerous piece of road, and the auto swerved from the road and plunged over the embankment. It was entirely submerged by the deep waters of the river, and the three men, struggling in the ley water would probably have been drowned had it not been for the timely help of the men who chanced to be passing at the time. The scene of the accident is above the Santa Ana Valley Irrigation Company canal. William Hogue of Corona is in the Anaheim General Sanitarium, suffering from a possible fracture of the skull, a severely crushed chest and severe lacerations and bruises about the body. He was saved from drowning, as were his two companions, Lloyd Tingle, 24 years of age, and O. W. Morris, 24 both of Anaheim, through the quick work of three passing motorists, who jumped into the river and dragged the men ashore. The rescuers were Earl and Henry Register and Earl McKnight of Lennox. Earl Register was severely chilled from his experience in the water and was given first-aid treatment at the Anaheim Police Station. Neither of the companions of Hogue suffered injury in the accident, but they were taken to the county jail in Santa Ana, where they spent the night as lodgers. Their clothing was dried and they were released early Monday. Deputy Sheriff's Adams and Elliott made a search of the canyon early Monday for the automobile, but it was not found. Newspaper Consolidation The Balboa Bulletin and the Costa Mesa Courier have suspended publication. The papers will be merged with the Balboa Times and Costa Mesa Herald published by the Newport Harbor Publishing Company. The Bulletin was started about three years ago by W. A. Woera, later purchased by Frank Owen, of Colton, who, in turn, sold it to J. Winterbourne and Son early this year. At the same time the Winterbourne started the Courier and installed a plant on the Mesa, from where they printed the two papers, in addition to the Missionite, circulated at San Juan Capistrano. Under the present plan, the Winterbourne will continue to issue the Missionite and have moved the Bulletin plant there.

LICENSES REVOKED Twenty-six more California motorists lost their driving licenses during the month of November for various causes bringing the grand total of revocations for the year up to 274. The revocations are in line with the recent declaration of war on the criminally careless by the traffic division of the State Motor Vehicle Department. Will H. Marsh, chief of the division announced today that "the drive is going to continue until we get rid of these drivers." Of the November revocations nine were for driving while intoxicated, ten were for speeding and reckless driving, three were by request of parents, one by court order for speeding and three because of mental or physical infirmity.
