Location Leased for Orange County Fair Ground Secured at Corner State Highway and Placentia Ave. The 1926 Orange county fair will be located on the state highway where that thoroughfare joins the Placentia boulevard. This decision was reached at a dinner-meeting of the directors of the Orange County Communities Fair, held in the Knights of Pythias hall, Anaheim. It also was decided to employ a full-time manager for the fair. Negotiations for the fair site have been carried on for several weeks and a three-year lease was presented the directors for their approval. Rental on the property for the three years, or life of the lease, is $3500, to be divided into equal payments. The site comprises the 15 acres immediately east of the Placentia boulevard and state highway junction, with a 250-foot frontage on the state thoroughfare and 750 feet on the Placentia boulevard. There is a stucco building on the property that will, in all probability, be used as an office for the transaction of fair business. A committee was appointed to confer with an attorney over the legality of the lease. Under the present plan, it is proposed to erect several permanent structures on the property, to include a permanent entrance. Trees and shrubs will be planted to beautify the place and prepare it for the opening of the 1926 fair, September 6. With the acquisition of the property and the business of completing the organization of the corporation, it was thought advisable to employ a full-time manager. The president of the fair board was authorized to request the Orange county farm bureau to release Secretary-Manager A. M. Stanley, allowing him to devote his entire time between now and the completion of the next fair for this work. In the event that Stanley's services are not available, other arrangements for a manager will be made. The manager will be required to sell memberships and stock in the new corporation and take general charge of the fair Buena Park Notes (By Mrs. J. P. HOBISON) Mrs. G. E. Shear and Mrs. M. E.

The West Coast Fur Farm received its first rabbits about two months ago, and there was much to be done to accommodate the stock as it came in. The farm is located on the W. E. Lanier place, a block west of Walker, on Lincoln avenue. Visitors are always welcome. The farm has some of the best fur rabbit stock in the West.

Mrs. Itay Kuhnman and little son, Bobble, left over the Southern Pacific last week for Fort Worth, where she will spend the summer visiting her mother. TARIFF INTERNATIONAL More and more is the administration of tariff duties becoming an international economic question, and less and less a political party issue. One great fact is becoming plain, that a tariff does not prohibit imports, for they were 17 per cent more last year than in 1924, reaching a total of $4,225,000,000. Manufactures constituted 19 per cent of all imports, although the statistics show there was decrease in percentage of value compared with 1924. It is also shown by the records that the tariff is no obstacle to importation of raw materials used in American factories, as they were 30 per cent of the total. Under protective duties, our country is exporting steadily an increasing proportion of manufactured goods. In 1925 the percentages were: raw material, 28; manufactured products, 39; the home market being held, so that less than one-fifth of all imports were finished goods. On Friday, March 5, Arbor Day was celebrated at Laurel school, with a very attractive program. First, Miss Claire Germain of Balboa, county chairman of the department of birds and wild life of the Federation of Women's Clubs, gave an interesting talk on birds, illustrating it with stuffed birds of the different varieties.

The school and audience then marched to the school grounds, where the janitor, R. Meyers, planted a tree presented by the local Woman's Club, which is to be used as a community Christmas tree when it shall have reached porper size. Lula Sjostrom read the dedication. A bottle containing an account of the program, the names of the teachers and the officers and members of the club was placed at the foot of the tree, and Mrs. George Watts, president, and Mrs. P. J. Campbell, vice-president of the club, threw in the first shovelfuls of dirt. Then the entire audience went across the street and repeated the planting ceremony at the community church grounds, this tree also being a gift of the club. Cypress Notes (By W. C. MILLER) The Community Club held its regular meeting at the club parlors Tuesday afternoon, with Meadames Luther, Lamblin and Kester acting as hostesses. The clubroom was decorated in keeping with St. Patrick's Day. Most of the business was taken up by the preparations for the annual entertainment of the members' men folk. This event will take place Saturday, March 20, and will consist of a dinner and entertainment. After the business was disposed of, refreshments of jello and French It is also shown by the records that the tariff is no obstacle to importation of raw materials used in American factories, as they were 40 per cent of the total. Under protective duties, our country is exporting steadily an increasing proportion of manufactured goods. In 1925 the percentages were: raw material, 28; manufactured products, 39; the home market being held, so that less than one-fifth of all imports were finished goods. Oklahoma Story at California Theater When the government, in 1889, decided to open the Cherokee land strip to homesteaders, it meant the end of the cattlemen's regime. They had leased grazing lands and ranch sites on the strip from the Chagokees, but now they had to go with their vast herds. No wonder there was bitterness between the owners and hands. This is the basis of "Tumbleweeds," William S. Hart's first production for United Artists Corporation release, which comes to the West Coast California theater, Anaheim, Friday and Saturday, and in it the true tale of the famous strip between Kansas and Oklahoma is told for the first time on the screen. Barbara Bedford, one of screendom's most beautiful actresses, plays Molly Lassiter, the girl for whom Don Carver, the "Tumbleweed," played by Bill Hart, conceives an effection that overcomes his prejudice against homesteaders in general and converts him from a roving cowboy to a homebuilder. This is the strongest story William S. Hart has ever produced and one that will be welcomed by his thousands of admirers the world over. A Mermaid comedy, "The Spotlight," and an Aesop Fable completes the screen offering. Five high class vaudeville acts will headline Friday night's show. Saturday night the revival picture, which is an added attraction, will be Jackie Coogan in "Circus Days."
