The regular meeting of the Farm Center, held at the schoolhouse last evening, was featured by a large attendance of visitors.

There was much conflicting testimony and defaming of character brought out. The 12 ladies who sat on the jury found the prisoner guilty, "not so much for his acts against Mr. Fuquay, but for the scandalous remarks he once made about the Community Club." He was sentenced to furnish entertainment for the Farm Center for the rest of the year. The spring picnic of the Cypress school was held at Orange County park Saturday, May 1.

The club has had the use of the building for a number of months past for its special gatherings, and appreciates to the full the privilege of calling it home. A sign has been placed on the front of the building, which proclaims to the world the existence of a live club in this community. The meeting was a busy one. There were reports from a number of chairmen, the most noteworthy of which were the reports of the chairman of community service, Mrs. Jennie Bloomquist, and of membership, Mrs. Estelle Johnson. Mrs. Bloomquist reported, among other things, the grading and repairing of the streets, and the planting of palm trees around St. Isadore's and the Community church.

Dean Priddy was knocked from his bicycle at the corner of Lincoln and Walker streets this afternoon by a passing motorist. The lad narrowly escaped serious injury; as it was, he was severely shocked and frightened. C. L. Barnett, deputy sheriff for this district, apprehended two Mexicans Saturday evening, who were in the act of preparing for a raid on some chicken roost, presumably W. D. Ledford's. The Mexicans were in an old deserted barn on Crescent street, just west of the Ledford poultry plant. They were equipped with a dozen bags that gave evidence of having been used to transport poultry and tin snips to cut through poultry netting. They were taken to Santa Ana, and there held on a vagrancy charge while further investigation is being made.

Less than three months ago the plant started with 16 pies, now over three hundred pies are turned from the oven, and Mr. Cooper intends to install another oven by the fifteenth instant that will double this output.

Tideland Titles Settled by Court A decree of the superior court settling tideland titles at Newport harbor on a basis previously agreed upon by the county of Orange and the Irvine interests, was granted by Judge E. J. Marks, who heard the county's "friendly" action against the Irvine company. The decree, which definitely establishes the county's title to certain lands and harbor frontage, clears away one of the obstacles in the path of a harbor bond election. Objection had been raised to holding a bond election until the question of titles had been settled. The court proceedings were brief and perfunctory. District Attorney A. P. Nelson appeared for the county. James G. Scarborough, of Scarborough, Forgy and Reinhaus, represented the Irvine company. Business Excellent In Buttress Plant A bonus plan by which employees will receive at Christmas time a check equal to $5 for each month of service up to $60 was announced yesterday by J. H.

The plan is operative as of January 1, 1926, and is applicable to all employees after they have been with the company for one year. "We employ only American labor under the American plan in our plant," said Mr. Clark yesterday, "and we have decided to adopt a plan by which we can indicate to our employees our material appreciation of their loyalty. As a matter of fact, at least half of our employees have been with us since the inception of our company, four years ago, and the bonus plan which we have inaugurated will apply to practically everyone at our plant." The business of the Buttress company is progressing satisfactorily. Clark declares, and 1926 promises to be the biggest year in the company's history, as the demand is growing for both wallboard and plaster board, the two principal products of the company.
