Biggest Dollar NO DOLLAR that leaves your hand buys so much as the one spent for electricity. The electrical dollar of 1914 is worth $1.08 today, because electricity is cheaper. Your other dollars of 1914 are worth only 61 cents today, because general commodities are higher now. A great many conditions have contributed to the present low cost of electricity but they all center in that American spirit of initiative which continually produces improved methods of generating electricity and more efficient apparatus for its use. Electricity works for us so constantly and so quietly that we often forget what an important factor it is in our lives. Yet it is our greatest servant, taking the drudgery out of our lives and costing only a few cents a day.

MILLER) Two men, apprehended by Los Angeles authorities at San Juan Capistrano, admitted thefts of several motors in this district, among which was the theft of the motor belonging to Steve Luther. On the way back to Los Angeles they identified the place and told where the motor was. Mr. Luther remembered the men as two who had stopped in and contracted for a number of lugs of sweet corn some time ago. They had refused to make a deposit on the corn, so Luther never gathered it. The motor was sold to a Los Angeles party for $30. The two men arrested claim to know nothing of the belt, pulleys and tools taken from the Luther plant a few nights after the motor was taken. The authorities are working on the idea that there is an organized gang of some seven or eight.

Permanent Site for Historical Pageant Promoters Want Location in Orange County Park The tremendous success of the presentation of the pageant, "The Birth of an Empire," at the Orange County fair, Thursday night, has caused boosters for the esthetic and beautiful again to cast longing eyes toward Orange County park. A wonderful natural amphitheater has been discovered within a few hundred yards from the main entrance of the park, according to Robert Northercross, who believes it to be an ideal location for a pageant of the nature of the one presented at the fair. At the invitation of Northercross, Mrs. J. V. Kelsey, manager of the pageant, and A. M. Stanley junior author, visited the location some months ago and declared the place to be ideal. The spot is said to have the best acoustics of any theater in Southern California. In this regard A. M. Stanley said: "Situated on the northern hill slope in a sheltered canyon, it presents a location ideal for night presentation. The hill slopes gradually away from the proposed location of the stage, providing a desirable seating arrangement. It is proposed that the actual stage be built across a ravine, with ample dressing rooms beneath and an orchestra pit in front. Other ravines provide natural escapement for the actors, wagons and horses used in presenting the play. "Now there is a reason for all this longing. When the production of the pageant was undertaken this year, it was determined that this would be the last time the play would be presented in connection with the fair. So far as is known at present, nothing has happened to change the opinion of the directors; therefore if the play is to live, it is the opinion of many that it will be forced to secure a new home. The location at Orange County park seems to be the logical answer to the new question." again on their ranch west of town, after five weeks spent in the mountains at Tujunga. Dr. and Mrs. John H. Boege returned last week from a six weeks' motor trip, during which they went as far north as Canada. Mrs. Minnie Schulz died suddenly at her home on East Sycamore street Sunday of ptomaine poisoning. Funeral services were held Tuesday at the parlor of Backs, Terry & Campbell, Rev. H. G. Schneelzer being in charge. Mrs. Schulz was 54 years of age. She leaves a husband and three sons. Three other members of Mrs. Schulz's family were stricken with the illness at the same time, but recovered.
