TENS of thousands of people from all sections of Southern California, and many from commonwealths outside the Golden State, have passed through the gates of the orange show since its opening a week ago, and admired the beautiful displays in the great tents. The glory that once was Greece's is depicted in the decorations and in all the exhibits, and it is conceded that this is the most spectacular and beautiful of all King Valencia's festivals since their founding, six years ago.
There are eleven feature displays in the main tent, all novel and beautiful, and all adhering to the ancient Greek motif. There are numerous racks of Valencia oranges, lemons and grapefruit lining the walls of the tent, and as the fruit is exceptionally good this year, these displays represent the finest product of the soil. The judge upon whom was imposed the duty of awarding prizes according to merit had a difficult job in making decisions.
The best bands, the best orchestras and the best dramatic and vaudeville talent in California have been engaged to give daily entertainment; to the multitudes. A radio apparatus carries the sound to all sections of the show, consequently the music and the speaking can be heard by all the thousands within the great tents.
The industrial section is a beehive. Everything that can have an interest for man or woman is displayed there and is being demonstrated by glittonued young men and young women. Also good eats and good drinks are being sold.
The auto salon is a popular resort, as all the cars on the market are being displayed, and many sales orders are being booked.
Out on the Midway there is a variety of entertainment, and if the visitor grows tired of looking at ancient Greece, he can wander out there and fill up on modern attractions. Manager Reid had a circus staged for Friday, Saturday and Sunday. It is gone now, but there are plenty of things to interest the visitor in the carnival display. There is a merry-go-round, a Ferris wheel, side shows, wheel of fortune, games, freaks from all sections of the world, big snakes, wild meh from Darkest Africa, midges and giants. There is a young man there who, it is claimed, measures 8 feet 9 inches in height. Gollath of Gath, mentioned in the Bible, measured six cubits and a span, which translated into modern language means 9 feet 9 inches. If this young man keeps on growing, he may reach the stature of the famous Phillistine.
In the feature displays, Los Angeles county won the fire prize for an exhibit without mechanical action. It represented a Grecian charlot with a driver and three galloping white horses, all life size, on a field of Valencia oranges. Yorba Linda won first prize on feature display with mechanical action, the display being an ancient Greek galley floating on a blue sea, with 32 oars on each side, the oars being in constant motion. Pomona won second prize for feature in mechanical action, San Bernardino third and Anaheim Lumbermen fourth. Second place for feature with mechanical action was won by Newport

Adopt Endorsement of Bond Issue at Election June 10
Resolutions endorsing the Orange county harbor bonds, authorized at a meeting of the Associated Realty Bonds of Orange County, are made public by H. H. Crooke of Fullerton, president of the association.
The committee drafting the resolutions was composed of Crooke, B. H. Sldnam, Anaheim; F. C. Pope, Santa Ana; W. A. Martin, Orange, and Roy Peacock, Laguna Beach.
Authorization of the resolution followed an address by Harry H. Culver, president of the California Real Estate Association, in which he declared the harbor completed would be an asset equal to all the other assets possessed by the county.
The resolution follows:

BEAN GROWERS RECEIVE RAISE
Additional One Cent Per Pound Allowed on Last Fall's Crop
Lima bean growers will receive 1 cent per pound additional for their last fall's crop, which will give them 9½ cents per pound. This news was brought back from the association's meeting at Oxnard by W. C. Jerome, representing the San Joaquin growers; G. W. Moore of the Smelzer association, and F. D. Plavan of the Greenville association.
The cent-a-pound payment will be made on or before June 1. The association crop will be all cleaned up before the 1926 crop is harvested. The report given the directors in Oxnard by R. L. Churchill, general manager of the association, showed that the association has only 25,000 bags of beans of the 1925 crop still to be sold and it has approximately five months before the 1926 crop is marketable. The independent growers, many of whom have been unable to sell their 1925 beans, were reported as having something like

ANAHEIM DAY AT ORANGE SHOW
Stores, schools and offices in the city will close Friday between the hours of 2 and 4 p.m. in observance of Anaheim Day at the Sixth Annual California Valencia Orange Show.
Virtually every merchant in the city has agreed to close at the time specified to permit employees to attend the show. It is expected that employees from each store will attend in a body.
J. A. Clayes, principal of the Anaheim Union high school, says that the high school will close at 2 o'clock and students will march in a body to the show. Between 2:30 and 3 o'clock the high school band will play from the stage, as a feature of the regular program, under the direction of Joshua Williams.
Teachers from various grammar schools in the city will lead their classes in a body, if possible, join in a larger group, composed of all the grades.
Special rates are promised for the children. Arrangement has been made with the sideshows and concessions to distribute free tickets to the Joy Zone.
INTERESTING COLLECTION DISPLAYED IN MUSCH'S CAFE WINDOW
Oldest One Shows Los Angeles Street in 1870; Picture of Anaheim's Street Car, Taken in 1885, Is Among Collection, Also the City's Brass Band of 1884, Which Was Composed of Two Ladies and Seven Men
PICTURES of old Anaheim, depicting scenes in the days of long ago, are on display in the windows of Conrad Musch's cafe, on North Los Angeles street.
Some are street scenes, some are of buildings that have given way to modern improvements, and some are of groups of people, many of whom have moved away or passed on.
The oldest picture is a Los Angeles street scene, taken from a point just north of Chartres. The picture shows the old brick building on the corner now occupied by the Slabback grocery, and on the opposite side loom up the three brick structures built by Ferdinand and Joseph Backs, more than half a century ago. In the distance can be seen the old brick building on the Center street corner, which was the original home of the First National Bank.
St. Boniface's church in 1879 is one of the pictures. It was only a big wooden box in comparison with the present edifice, but it was sufficient for the congregation at that period. This building was moved several hundred feet down Palm street when the present church was built.
One of the pictures shows the Anaheim band in 1884—that is 42 years ago. There were nine members, each one armed with a horn. There were no drums. Nick Bittner was the leader, and by his side stood his wife, proudly carrying a cornet. There was another lady in the lineup. Following is a list of members: Henry Padderatz, Ramon Agullar, Mrs. E. A. White, Albert Bitter, E. A. White, Harry Cowan and E. A. Pullen.
Perhaps many people are not aware that Anaheim once boasted a street car system, but here's a picture that proves she did. The rails ran from the Southern Pacific depot at West Anaheim to the Santa Fe depot on Atchison street. The rolling stock consisted of one open-faced car, about the size of a seven-passenger automobile, and a disconsolete-looking nulek. Nick Bittner was the motorman and conductor; in fact, he was the entire force of the system, with the exception of the executive officers, and he is consipcuously shown in the picture on display here by the side of his faithful mule. The picture was taken in 1885.
Another picture, taken in 1887, at the corner of Center and Los Angeles streets, shows the Anaheim Masonic lodge lined up for a parade. A vicious-looking billy goat, dressed in lodge regalia, and in charge of a small boy,
Church reported that the 1926 crop will be double the 1925 crop. The total for the 1925 crop was about 550,000 bags, and it is estimated that the 1926 crop will reach 1,200,000 bags, which is about what the 1922 crop totaled. Churchill said that he had surveyed the conditions carefully and he believes the 1926 crop, although large, will be moved satisfactorily and at a fair price. The outlook for the 1926-1927 market was reported as having something like 100,000 bags on hand.
Representatives of the bean grower associations in this county have made plans for a picnic of Orange county bean growers, including association and independent growers, in the county park on Saturday, June 19, by which time the growers will have their beans planted and can spare the time for a gathering of the kind. Manager Churchill and as many of the Lima Bean Growers' Association as can get there will be present. The association speakers will go into detail concerning the crop outlook and will be ready to answer any questions that may be asked.
Ames Appointed Superior Judge
Local Attorney Will Succeed Judge Williams
Homer G. Ames of this city was on Friday, appointed by Governor Richardson to be superior judge of Orange county, filling the vacancy caused by the resignation of Judge Roger Y. Williams. He assumed his official duties on Monday. In his telegram announcing the appointment the governor said:
"I have appointed Homer G. Ames superior court judge of Orange county because he appears to be the best man available for the place. The returns of the plebsite sent out by me show that 60 per cent of the attorneys of Orange county favor Ames, while 40 per cent are divided among the other four candidates. Mr. Ames is highly recommended by Judges, attorneys and citizens as a man of ability, integrity and capacity to work."
Six candidates sought the office. They were Ames, W. F. Monton, A. P. Nelson James L., Allen William P. Webb of this city, and W. H. Thomas. Ames is the son of Mrs. Sarah A.

Another picture, taken in 1887, at the corner of Center and Los Angeles streets, shows the Anaheim Masonic lodge lined up for a parade. A vicious-looking bily goat, dressed in lodge regalia, and in charge of a small boy, leads the procession.
Anaheim had a military company in 1885, according to one of the pictures. There was a function of some kind on the boards, as a couple of hundred women and children were seated on benches beneath a row of spreading pepper trees, watching the maneuvers. The boys were wearing the old Civil war caps.
There are two pictures of the Anaheim Turners enjoying an outing in 1885. One is a picture of a large crowd of men, women and children reclining on the grass. The other shows 16 turners lined up against a background of rugged rock, on which a number of names are carved in gigantic letters. One of the conspicuous figures in the picture looks precisely like Captain Victor Schumacher would have looked 41 years ago. It must be him.
There are many other photos in the collection of interest to old-timers, one of them showing the Anaheim school children in a picture at the park in 1885.
TOURING EUROPE
Fred C. Rimpau has received a letter from his sister, Miss Sophie Rimpau, who writes London that she and her sister, Mrs. Marle Alexander, were shopping in that city, when Mr. Alexander telephoned them that on account of the general strike it would be advisable to leave England immediately. They returned hastily to their hotel, packed their belongings and left for Dover, where they took a channel steamer for Calais, on their way to Paris. They are now touring France, and will spend some time with relatives in Germany. They will be absent six months before returning.
Anterior court Judge of Orange county because he appears to be the best man available for the place. The returns of the plebiscite sent out by me show that 60 per cent of the attorneys of Orange county favor Ames, while 40 per cent are divided among the other four candidates. Mr. Ames is highly recommended by judges, attorneys and citizens as a man of ability, integrity and capacity to work."
Six candidates sought the office. They were Ames, W. F. Menton, A. P. Nelson James L., Allen William P. Webb of this city, and W. H. Thomas. Ames is the son of Mrs. Sarah A. Ames of Santa Ana. His father, A. W. Ames, died several years ago. His boyhood was spent in Santa Ana, where he attended high school, and his early years of law practice were spent in that city. For some years he was associated with Attorney Horace C. Heard. He was a deputy when Head was district attorney. He came to Anaheim, where he became a law partner of Richard Melrose, who passed away several years ago. Following Melrose's retirement, he formed a partnership with T. L. McFadden. For a number of years he was city attorney of Anaheim.
ASKS $5000 DAMAGES
Injuries which Eveline Davignan claims to have received in an automobile crash on Placentia avenue, near Placentia, were assessed at $5000 in a damage suit, which she filed Friday in superior court against Thomas Kinney and Lloyd Larson.
The accident took place a year ago. Plaintiff was riding in Kinney's car when it struck the rear of Larson's machine, which was parked without lights, with its two left wheels upon the pavement, according to the plaintiff.
Her neck was permanently scarred her jugular vein severed, and she now forced to wear glasses. She was unable to attend school regularly until after January 1, this year, and has been almost constantly under the care of a physician.
Attorneys Welsel and Stark of Anaheim are counsel for plaintiff.
Morton Kaer, the well-known U.S.C. fullback, spent the week-end as the guest of Al Clayes. Kaer seems to find a lot of attraction in Anaheim.

BIG ANAHEIM BUSINESS CONCERN
DOUBLING ITS CAPITAL STOCK
Savings, Loan and Building Association Asks Permission to Increase Its Capital to $4,000,000; Shows Huge Growth
OWING to increasing demand for loans by prospective home builders, the Savings, Loan and Building Association of Anaheim has applied to state authorities for permission to double its capital, or to issue 40,000 shares of a par value of $4,000,000. Only four years ago—in 1922—the company increased its capital from one million to two million dollars, and it was supposed at the time that many years would elapse before another increase.
Financial Condition Of City of Anaheim would be necessary, but men who have been content to rent all their lives are beginning to realize the advantages of having a vine and fig tree of their own to sit under, and the loan association brings the acquisition of a home within

would be necessary, but men who have been content to rent all their lives are beginning to realize the advantages of having a vine and fig tree of their own to sit under, and the loan association brings the acquisition of a home within the reach of any man. Relative to the application for permission to increase the stock, Secretary F. A. Backs says:
In the year 1889, a small group of men started this association and it was capitalized at 5000 shares. These shares lasted from that year until June, 1920 (31 years), when the secretary of state granted permission to increase the shares to 10,000.
The association grew from 1920 until when, in 1922, it was again necessary to enlarge our activities, and the shares again increased to what seemed at that time an enormous figure, namely 20,000.
From 1922 until May 1, 1926, the association has grown from a half million dollar organization to where we now have loans on first deeds of trust, secured by northern Orange county real estate, in excess of one and one-quarter million dollars.
This means that we have now exhausted our 20,000 shares and we are asking the secretary of state to again increase our shares to 40,000.
The Savings Loan and Building Association received its charter on January 8, 1889, its capital stock being fixed at $500,000. There were 27 stockholders when the company was organized, and a check of the list shows that less than one-fourth are now living. The first board of directors consisted of eleven men, as follows: Frank Ey, Charles Schindler, Louis Luckel, H.A.Dickel, Joseph Helmsen, E.J.Pellegrin, S.Littlefield, Ferdinand Backs, John P.Zeyn, A.Thomas and A.Goldthwait.
The first president was Frank Ey.
From this small beginning, with only 27 stockholders, the company has expanded until now there are more than 700 on the rolls. With so many loans it is reasonable to suppose there would be some losses; but Secretary Backs states that the company has not had a foreclosure suit in 30 years.
F.A.Backs.Jr., has been secretary of the association for 27 years.Because of the increasing business of the company, he recently disposed of his interest in the Backs & Terry funeral parlors in order that he might devote his entire time to his secretaryship.E.E.Brus is assistant secretary,and Charles F.Grim is now the president.
