Daughters of the American Revolution, at City Park, tomorrow afternoon, Friday, June 18, at 4 o'clock. It was originally announced that old-timers would have to make a grade of forty years, and the meeting was called for 6 o'clock, but in order to ease up on the grade, a change was made, and the hour of assembling was fixed at 4 o'clock so that they might be getting home before curfew and have no trouble with the city authorities. Invitations have gone out to a large number of Pioneers, asking the pleasure of their presence, and it is expected a multitude will be in the park when festivities begin. However, if anyone should have been missed, this may be accepted as an invitation to be present, providing they can make the grade, and will leave their pickaxes at home. It is expected guests will arrive promptly on time, even if they were never on time in their lives before. Introductions will follow, and all the old-timers will shake hands with their friends, many of whom, may hap, they may not have seen in years. A basket luncheon will follow, and it is pointed out in the invitations that all guests are expected to bring lunches with them. If any old maverick will show up without his lunch, he will be taken care of just the same. Ladies of the chapter will serve real coffee and cake, and after the lunch a program of exercises will follow. Many old-timers have signified their intention of being present among them the following: Frank Dyer, who swam in from the Pacific ocean, landing on Lemon street some time during the last century. He has papers to prove it. City Clerk Ned Merritt, who came over in the Mayflower and was a personal friend of Christopher Columbus. He says so himself. Billy Wallop, who came to Anaheim when great flocks of thousands of sheep roamed the valley, and when he is supposed to have laid the foundation for his great fortune by minding his own business in the dark of the moon. Billy is the only man in Orange county who says it doesn't pay to raise watermelons. It's cheaper to let the other follows raise them. Fayette Lewis, who had to erect a willow hedge around his law office as a barricade to the attack of hostile Indians. Fayette has scalped more redskins than any man who ever lived in Anaheim. Excellent Program Given by Scholars Class of Twelve Graduated from St. Joseph's Last Night Annual commencement exercises were held at St. Joseph's academy last night, an interesting program having been arranged by the teachers in charge. Twelve pupils composed the graduating class, completing the eighth grade, and next year will continue their studies in the higher branches of the public schools. The auditorium was filled with friends of the graduates and other pupils who had parts in the exercises, and they testified their appreciation of the various numbers by generous applause.

It's cheaper to let the other fellows raise them. Fayette Lewis, who had to erect a willow hedge around his law office as a barricade to the attack of hostile Indians, Fayette has scalped more redskins than any man who ever lived in Anaheim. Charley Stone, who walked to school in Anaheim from his father's ranch on Orangethorpe avenue, when the La Habra hills were infested with tribes of hostile savages, Charley got after them one day with a sawed-off shotgun and chased them over to Whittler where their descendants now survive and seem to be getting on quite well. Edgar Johnson of the Fullerton Tribune, who came out at the close of the Revolutionary war, wearing his Colonial uniform and bringing his musket and autographed photographs of George Washington and Governor Friend William Richardson. Jimmy Heffron of the Bulletin, overseas veteran, hero of the bloody fight of St. Mihiel, who it is thought can make the grade. We don't say much about Jimmy, or he'll kick back in the Bulletin. J. P.

County Clerk J. M. Backs, known as "Cupid," born and raised in Anaheim. When he arrived, the Pacific ocean came up to Clementine street, and he used to trap big lobsters on the high school grounds. Joe has issued more marriage licenses than any man in the state, and he passes the coveted documents over the counter with such courtesy and urbanity of demeanor that he robs matrimony of many of its terrors. Young brides-to-be and bashful groomsmen will make a note of that fact. Joe issues marriage licenses with one hand and takes the dinero with the other. James Sleeper, Orange county's great assessor, who makes the big corporations pay their taxes along with the little fellows, and came to Orange county when the peaks of the coast range of mountains were just sprouting from the ground. Bry Williams, casnier of the First National Bank of Santa Ana, to whom we apply for money when we're broke, and we are frequently broke. Bry is the first white settler who ever saw the town of Orange, and he used to run a line of ferry boats down the raging Santa Ana river from Peralta to Delhi. For years he lived on nothing but kidney stew. He never looked at another man's watermelon patch in his life, so he declares, to the best of his knowledge and belief. It is believed his word will be taken for it, and that he will have no trouble with article 1. Bill Sackett, arrived from Montana about the time of the tea party in Boston harbor, bringing passports and certificates of good character. Bill can make the grade, and will need no ax to get in. John Cook, original lima bean man, who showed the natives how to raise lima beans about the time of the signing of the Declaration of Independence. Julius Schneider, who came to Anaheim about the time Washington crossed the Delaware, and tin-pan serenades were in vogue for newly-married couples. Julius always looked in at these festivities. Ladies came out on the upper verandas and threw kisses at the serenaders. Ah there, Julius! Johnny Dwyer, discoverer of the Hassayampa river, who came to Anaheim about the time of the trouble at Bunker Hill. It is related that people who drink of the water of the Hassayampa are strangers forever thereafter to the truth, but Johnny declares the water never had such an effect upon him, and we believe it.

Proposition No. 1, issuance of $650,000 for construction of harbor entrance, lost by only 580 votes, while No. 2, $550,000 for inside harbor work, lost by 2271 votes.

The city of Brea was an exception, however, the vote there being 234 yes and 45 no on No. 1, and 228 yes and 51 no on No. 2. There will be no further attempt made to carp a county bond proposal for development of the harbor, it was announced by George Peabody of Newport Beach, member of the harbor executive committee and prominent leader in the bond campaign. Under the present law, the harbor proposal could not again be presented to the voters. The law requires certain procedure, including appointment of a harbor commission preparation of a modern conveniences with camping outfit. Last Word in Outing Equipment Displayed at Buick Agency Modern conveniences have made housekeeping easy for the wife and comfortable for the family during the past few years, and now these conveniences have been so adapted that they can be carried out into the wide open spaces when the husband, the wife and the children set forth on their annual camping expedition. You can carry the comforts of home with you on your summer's outing now, and if you doubt this statement, just take a peep through the window of the Good-rum-Howard Bulck agency, on South Los Angeles street and view the model camp erected there by the Western Auto Supply Company. There is everything in this outfit that a family would need when getting beyond the reach of home. There is a tent, a bed, a gas stove, a table, chairs, cooking utensils, dishes, water bags and various other small articles of daily use that may be found handy. There is even a high-powered lantern by which weary vacationist may read after the supper is cleared away and the shades of night envelop the earth. It is not necessary to take a gasoline stove if you prefer to burn wood, but it is much more satisfactory and convenient, as you can feed it from your auto tank with a siphon. Besides, this stove is collapsible, and occupies but a small space in packing. In fact, everything about this camp is collapsible, even to water bucket. The tent can be folded up and, with its poles, packed on one running board of the car. The bed, the table, and the chairs are collapsible, and the entire camp can be packed away on a car without inconvenience to the passengers. Going camping with an outfit like this is called "grypaying deux." You will miss many things the old-time campers encountered in the open spaces, but they are things you won't regret. As a last suggestion, Joe Hunt of the local Western Auto store, says you cannot enjoy the trip if your motor isn't running efficiently and your tires are not in perfect shape. Look after these details before you start. With such an outfit and with your car in reasons for seeking office: A speaker from Los Angeles has been invited to attend the meeting and deliver the main address of the event.

Miss Slappe will recover, according to attending physicians. The girl was injured when thrown from the machine in which she was riding. Her skull was fractured, it is believed, when she struck a telephone pole. Ernest Hinkley, a passenger in the same car, and Mrs. E. J. Raloff of Los Angeles, driver of the other car in the collision, were slightly injured. Hinkley was brought to the Anaheim sanitarium, where he was given first aid treatment. Mrs. Raloff was brought to the Anaheim Community hospital. Richard W. Adams, driver of the car in which Miss Slappe was riding, and Miss Marium Yaeger and Sidney Slappe, passengers in the car, escaped uninjured. Assemblyman S. C. Hartranft made the Flag Day oration at the Rotary Club luncheon Monday. Dr. J. W. Truxaw and Dr. Harry Zaizer were in charge of the dinner. Huntington Beach school district offers another example. That district, last year, paid $264,833 school tax and $334,876 county tax. The oil companies county taxes are low in comparison with those of other counties, the assessor's chief reform since he took office has been the reorganization and equalization of oil industry assessments. At present the oil industry is paying one-third of the county's entire tax bill. When Sleeper entered office in 1910, the proportion was less than one-fifth. That year the total taxes paid amounted to $567,000, of which the oil industry paid $107,600. In 1925 the total county tax bill was $4,566,000, with the oil industry paying $1,300,250, or more than 10 times the taxes it paid 16 years ago. This is in spite of the fact that oil production of the county is not as high just now as it has been in the past. The production this year was 28,472,978 barrels. The largest taxpayer in the county this year is one of the prominent oil companies, which has a tax bill of $492,545. The second largest taxpayer is another oil company, which pays $315,029. Nine big oil companies operating in the county will this year pay an aggregate tax of $1,198,256. One lease of 212 acres, with 18 wells, carries an assessment of $1,507,490, more than three times the assessment of the entire oil industry in the county in 1910. Another lease of 20 acres, with 11 wells, is assessed $526,350, which is more than the total oil assessment of 1910. Sleeper still keeps a photographic copy of the largest check ever handled for taxes in Orange county. He collected it from the Staudard Oil Company, in 1922, the amount of the check being $673,000.15. Sleeper was the first assessor in California to assess mineral rights, although there had been a law authorizing such assessment since 1872. What Sleeper's work in equalizing assessments in relation to the oil industry has meant to the county, is shown in the examples of certain localities. For instance, Fullerton city collections, for 1925, which were handled by Sleeper, included $203,330 in city tax,$206,108 school tax and $169,983 county tax, making a total of $579,421 to be paid by that city. Of that amount, the three oil companies operating there paid $232,598, leaving but $346,823 for the Fullerton property owners to raise. Huntington Beach school district offers another example. That district, last year, paid $264,833 school tax and $334,876 county tax. The oil companies...

No arrests have been made to date. The liquor was discovered by a man who, on staking out his horse on the lot, stumbled over the liquor. The police believe that a wholesale bootlegger had put the liquor at this hiding place for some retailer in Fullerton. A member of the police department was stationed near the spot Friday night, Saturday and Saturday night in an effort to spot the owner of the booze. As no one appeared for the liquor, it was thought that the owner was "tipped off" that an officer was in the neighborhood. The liquor seized included one dozen quart bottles of Gordon gin, one dozen bottles of Old Smuggler whiskey and two five-gallon cans of raw "moonshine" whiskey. MANY CHANGES IN GRAMMAR FACULTY TWENTY TEACHERS HAND IN THEIR RESIGNATIONS TO THE BOARD Some of Them Are Going Elsewhere and Some Retiring from the Work; Thirteen New Ones Chosen at Last Meeting, and Other Applications Being Considered; Warren Strickland New Principal at Fremont ALTHOUGH it was announced some weeks ago by County Superintendent Mitchell that there would be few changes in the teaching force in Plan to Entertain Visiting Editors More Than 200 Cars Needed to Carry Party Over County On Tuesday, June 29, Orange county will be invaded by several hundred editors, coming from all sections of the United States. Many of them will be accompanied by their wives, and it is expected at least a thousand people will be in the party. They are en route to Los Angeles to attend the annual convention of the National Editorial Association, and those coming in over the southern route will be the visitors here. A special train will bring them up from San Diego, and it will arrive at Santa Ana at 6 o'clock in the morning. The party will be given a breakfast at St. Ann's Inn, and at 7 o'clock will start on a tour of the county. It is estimated that 225 cars will be required to carry the visitors. The first stop will be made at Newport Heights, where a view of the harbor will be afforded. They will then proceed through Huntington Beach, Garden Grove and Orange, and arrive at the county park at noon, where a barbecued dinner will be served. A group of Spanish dancers and musicians will entertain them at the park. At 2 o'clock the party will again board the cars and start for the C. C. Chapman ranch, where they will be entertained by the owner. Permission will be given the guests to pick oranges from the trees in these famous groves, a rare privilege, as few of them have ever before seen orange trees. At half past four o'clock the party will again board the special train at Fullerton and proceed to Los Angeles. After leaving the county park, the editors will be driven through the El Modena and Villa Park sections to Olive. The route will continue up River canyon to the new Yorba bridge, which will be crossed, and the editors will be driven through the Golden State tract to East Anaheim. They will come into the city on East Center street, going through town to the high school, south on Citron street to Broadway, east on Broadway to Lemon, and south on Lemon to Fullerton.

INCREASE OF DEPOSITS Dr. Hilleary, vice-president of the First National Bank, is preparing an article for a forthcoming Union Pacific magazine, which will refer to the banking interests in this city. The edition will be given over entirely to articles descriptive of Anaheim. Dr. Hilleary finds, on looking up the records, that deposits in the old Bank of Anaheim in 1890 just topped the $100,000 mark. The president of that bank met his associates about town and, with chest swelling with conscious pride, announced that deposits in his bank had that day exceeded this figure. Dr. Hilleary finds that deposits in the several banks in town today are nearly $7,000,000, an increase of 7000 per cent. This shows how the old town is growing. Anaheim is going forward steadily.
