Neither were seriously hurt, according to the report. They were taken to their homes. A decree of divorce was awarded Mrs. Lois M. Jewell of Anaheim from Walter J. Jewell by Judge E. J. Marks last week. Mrs. Jewell as plaintiff was awarded custody of the two minor children and $50 monthly alimony. A property settlement was effected out of court. Two witnesses were sufficient to gain the decree for the plaintiff. Attorney Callor appeared for Mrs. Jewell. Postal receipts of the Anaheim post-office for the month of July show a substantial increase over the same month a year ago. The receipts totaled $3944.55 against $3774.96 for the same month a year ago.

A "mosquito district" costing approximately $40,000 and having for its object the eradication of mosquitos along a two-mile section of the coast between Newport Beach and Seal Beach is under discussion at Newport Beach. The proposal is not yet ready for presentation to the board of supervisors, it was said. Mrs. Arnold Enearl entertained the Saturday Afternoon Club last week at her home on Zeyn street. Her guests were taken to Fullerton, where lunch was served at the Mission Inn, at 1 o'clock. The afternoon was spent in card games at the Enearl home. Mrs. Vance Ford won first prize, Miss Lillian Rivers of Fullerton second, and Mrs. Vernon Gregg consolation. Manager Deimling of the Edison company has returned from an enjoyable outing in Fresno county, where he escorted a number of people on a sightseeing expedition to the wonderful works the company is putting in in that section. He reports excellent trout fishing in the numerous lakes in that county. In a suit brought by the Southern County Bank of Anaheim in the superior court Monday against N. D. McFarron, the bank was awarded judgment for $1500 and acquired interest from north rim of the Grand canyon, served by the Union Pacific system, is to be made even more attractive to tourists by the immediate construction of a magnificent modern hotel and lodge of primitive design at Bright Angel point, according to George R.

Immediate construction is planned, Bierman stated, so that this new development will be ready by June 1 next. Rev. J. H. Durbahn of Hollywood delivered the sermon at the union service in the Greek theatre Sunday. These services are growing popular, more than a thousand persons attending each evening. “There are better financial prospects and better feeling throughout the Middle West than there has been for a number of years,” declared S. C. Hartrantf of Fullerton, former assembly-man, who has recently returned from a trip that took him as far north as North Dakota, where at one time he lived. Hartrantf said that everywhere fine fields of wheat were being harvested. In the areas where scores of banks failed during the hard times period, optimism has revived. F. M. Garrich of Klamath Falls, Ore., who recently traded for the Ingram apartments, on Broadway, arrived here some days ago to take possession. G. T. Ingram and family left a couple of weeks ago for their new home in Oregon, which they acquired in the trade. Miss Winifred Melrose writes from London that she and her party have spent a week in Scotland, seeing many notable sights, including Melrose abbey, Loch Lomond, the Firth of Forth, and a glimpse of the North sea. At Edinburgh they saw the king and queen, at a public function attended by many Scotch soldiers in kilties. They are flying across the channel, and will do the continent for a couple of months. The weather has been cold, but all are enjoying themselves heartily. R. V. Holden, an Anaheim high school student of two years ago, was a visitor in Anaheim Monday and Tuesday. R. V. is residing in Redlands at present. He will be remembered by the present upper classes at Anaheim high as the discus man on the track team. Mail Carrier Baum is on the job again, after a two weeks' vacation in the deep recesses of the forest in the San Bernardino mountains. He was accompanied by his family, and all returned in excellent health and spirits. It's a pleasure to have "Easy Willie" back again.

McFarren, the bank was awarded judgment for $1500 and accrued interest from September 17, 1925, the plantiff asserting in the complaint that the $1500 represented the principal of a promissory note signed by McFarren on December 17, 1924, and which he was asserted to have refused to pay at maturity. Frank Dyer is sojourning for a month at Anaheim Landing, accompanied by his family. Frank lays aside the cares of business once a year in August and hies away to the ocean for an enjoyable outing. He is showing the mermaids what a real swimmer looks like, not to say what the best man at the beach looks like. As a result of a suit in the superior court Tuesday, Judge E. J. Marks awarded to J. G. Bernelke half a 10-acre ranch at Stanton, which was property of Bernelke's deceased wife, Marlon Louise Dow. Bernelke denied Mrs. Dow's claim that she is his daughter and brought suit against her through Charles D. Brown, administrator of the estate. Mrs. Bernelke died on February 3, 1926. A youngster, who gave his age as 16 years, and his name as John Woodman of Chicago, was arrested Saturday night by Anaheim police, on a charge of passing bogging checks. After passing seven checks, each for the sum of $22, he tried the eighth one at Larsen's drug store, but the proprietor was suspicious and refused to take it. He notified the police, and the young man was located at his room, at Center and Lemon, by the officers. Both the cash and goods he had gathered in by his operations were recovered. R. V. Holden, an Anaheim high school student of two years ago, was a visitor in Anaheim Monday and Tuesday. R. V. is residing in Redlands at present.

It's a pleasure to have "Easy Willie" back again: **MASSACHUSETTS OBJECTS** We read that educational leaders in Massachusetts have at this late day discovered that the use of the abbreviation, "Mass." is detrimental to the dignity of their state, and have begun a movement for its suppression. They want the name spelled out in full in all cases. But if Massachusetts feels slighted by the use of only four letters, other states have even more cause for complaint. Consider Ohio, which is usually represented by only one, "O." And the "O" might possibly be mistaken for a zero, thus adding insult to injury. The question raised calls to mind the interesting fact that the name of every state has been commonly abbreviated except that of Utah, possibly because "Ut." in handwriting might be confused with "Vt," while "Uh." would suggest an unpleasant sound. We doubt that the objection of the Massachusetts professor is well taken. Think how many barrels of ink have been saved by the employment of the abbreviated form, which saves nine letters each time it is written or printed, to say nothing of the economy of labor. We recall one typesetter whose ideas would have pleased the Massachusetts brethren, however. He too disliked abbreviations, and when he set up a musical article in which reference was made to Mozart's 12th Mass, he evidently was thinking of military affairs and didn't do a thing but make it read "Mozart's 12th Massachusetts." Laugh and the world laughs with you. Smile—and you're called a flirt. President W.

Remember the good only things put in fruits, vegetables and Pacific Hotel on North Rim of Grand Canyon The scenery like an original bit of sculpture, this modern mountain lodge will be season next June at Bright Angel point, on very edge of famous Grand Canyon, of Union Pacific officials. year. Gilbert Stanley Underwood, of Los Angeles, is the architect who worked out the unique design for the Union Pacific hotel, which, when completed, will appear to have grown right out of the multi-colored cliffs at the edge of the Grand Canyon, he says. Taking advantage of the great stone pylons that point their grotesque rock fingers skyward, Underwood has planned to fashion the hotel from native rocks and logs, using these natural pillars as supports and letting the varying levels of the cliffs serve as floors for the different rooms. The main entrance will be on the Kalabab forest side, through a great foyer to smearless porches and into the orange growers get big returns Santiago Association Cuts Juicy Melon in Second Pool Almost a quarter of a million dollars in one golden stream has been received by grower members of the Santiago Orange Growers' Association, representing the net returns from the association's second Valencia orange pool. According to figures released by Manager R. E. Gross, the checks to the growers totaled $224,160.21. Even this record is not expected to stand for long, as the association has just completed its third pool, the packing of which included heavier shipments and, from market indications, will bring better returns. The second pool, which has just been paid out, extended from May 20 to June 20, a 30-day period. Approximately 170 cars, or 79,916 packed boxes, were contained in this pool. Considerable significance was attached to the quarter of a million dollar citrus melon, in view of the fact that the shipments were made relatively early in the season before the real high market began. Despite this fact, the pool brought 12 per cent better prices than the second pool last year, which covered the corresponding period. Plant officials believe, however, that the third pool will carry off banner honors because it came at a time when the market was at its most favorable level. With the payment of the second pool, the Santiago organization has returned to its growers nearly $500,000 for fruit shipped to date. Including about sixty cars of navels, the figures for the first two Valencia pools totaled $457,363.91, according to Gross. giving any "dope." Downey, now also a member of the Orange league, is handling out no data. Come on, Anaheim—let's go! Jail Investigation Will End Today Sheriff Jernigan Expected to Be Last Witness Called Taking of testimony before the grand jury relative to charges made that the sheriff's office and county jail have not been properly handled will wind up today. Orlo Moncreff, the jaller, was on the stand nearly all of yesterday, and the case will probably end today with the testimony of Sheriff Jernigan. Moncreff's method of booking prisoners and supplying and purchasing food are said to have come in for considerable censure by a number of present jail inmates and former prisoners who have offered testimony. The bulky jaller entered the grand jury room with a number of books setting forth the number of meals served prisoners and the cost to the county. Previous testimony is believed to have been to the effect whereas the federal government allows 50 cents a day for the food and housing of each prisoner, the county of Orange allows only 28 cents, the lowest rate in the state. The supervision of the jail is said to be included in the duties of County Supervisor S. H. Finley of Santa Ana Finley, County Supervisor George Jeffrey and County Auditor William Jerome, all of whom have testified, are believed to have offered testimony concerning the manner of arriving at the 28 cents rate and the method of keeping check on the number of meals served at the jail. Guessing at the report of the grand jury is now one of the most popular pastimes for conversationally inclined individuals. One belief, which seems to have gained some credence, is that the grand jurors will censure the sheriff for not keeping closer check on the act of the official family, but that no recommendation for the removal of the sheriff or deputies will be made. The grand jury will make its special report on the jail situation to Judge Homer Ames of the superior court. Orange League to Be Good Bet This Year Predictions about the Orange County League football champions for 1927 will of necessity be rather weak. Last year saw a triple tie with Anaheim, Fullerton, and Huntington Beach, from which Fullerton emerged victorious. Last year's Orange-Fullerton game proved a sensation. With a few minutes to play, "Shorty" Smith yanked most of his regulars, as his team had compiled about 30 points. Playing against the subs of Fullerton, Orange made a successful passing attack. The final score was something around 30 to 20 for Fullerton. Orange made a successful passing attack came through the versatility of Clyde Feldner, a personal friend of the writer. Last year Clyde was varsity quarterback, basketball winning guard, and baseball pitcher. Besides this, he was student body president, and a member of the Orange T. N. T. Club. He is the only man Orange will lose. Coach White, son of Hardware White of Anaheim, may pull a surprise this fall. "Whitey" Edwards, Orange half-back, is captain of the team this year for the second time. Alvin (his real name) carries a ball nicely, too. Then there's Wayne Blackburn, winner of the low hurdles last year. He'll be playing football for White this fall. Fullerton has lost a number of men. Tommy McElheney, who wore the Blue and Gold tow years ago, was out last year with a bad leg. Next year he'll be an Indian. There is talk that he will play end. Down at Huntington Beach, there's not much material left. Be sure, however, that the beach will have a scrappy team that may spring a surprise. Brea-Ollinda is hard to figure. Their mainstay last year, Perry Thayer, quarterback, graduated last year, it seems. Our new entrant, Excelsior high, isn't $2.50 The Rexall store ANAHEIM, CALIF.

Warren Campbell of the Colorado State Society is announcing the annual summer picnic for all former residents of that state. It will be held all day Sunday, August 14, at Sycamore Grove park, Los Angeles, with basket dinners at noon. He promised a popular program and that county registers will be open all day so friends may meet each other. The program will follow with dinner hour, and hot coffee will be supplied for all plenickers. All Coloradoans are urged to rally for a great day.

TO THE BOUNDARIES OF THE NATION AND BEYOND BY LONG DISTANCE—FROM YOUR TELEPHONE Harvesting of Beans Will Begin Tomorrow Plans are under way foreginning on Friday the harvest of 5000 acres of blackeye beans on the Irvine ranch. The yield is expected to be the equal of last season's crop, but it is impossible to make an accurate estimate. Ranch officials declared, because of the hot weather of several weeks ago. The cutting will require one week, after which the beans will be stacked to dry for 10 days. The first shipment of beans will be made in the last week of August. No predictions are being made at the Irvine ranch regarding the price the blackeyes are expected to bring. It was pointed out that premature statements are likely to have an unwarranted effect on bean buyers. Four to 4½ cents is said to be a likely price, however. At present the harvesting of 1100 acres of red kidney beans is rapidly nearing completion on the ranch, but no estimate is available on the probable extent of the yield. Bean farmers of Orange county are now cutting the remainder of the 20,000 acres and probably will wind up the harvest in another two weeks. County Auditor William C. Jerome estimated. Approximately 100,000 bags is the probable yield, he stated. Jerome would make no prediction on the price question. In the neighborhood of 500 men are engaged in cutting the blackeyes, he figured. There are no indications that the first shipments will leave Orange county before the last week in August, and early September is set at time when shipments will be made in large quantities. It seems that the Snyder-Gray trial was too strong even for the sob-sisters. REASONABLE RELIABLE REPAIRS Save Your Tires We have special gauges for accurately checking and straightening axles.
