Funeral services were held in St. Boniface's church in this city Monday afternoon, interment being in Holy Cross cemetery. Walnuts are beginning to drop, and within two or three weeks the harvest will begin, affording employment to an army of Mexicans—men, women and children. The trees in this vicinity are yielding a bumper crop. B. John, Anaheim's only Hindoo, is now serving a 60-day sentence in jail, the charge against him being intoxication. John manages to get soused periodically, and is then held up and robbed by Mexicans, among whom he works in the orange groves. Judge Stark concluded that he would be safe from holdup men for 60 days if he spent that period in the county jail. Dinner at the Southern Seas Club, a short business session and a delightful moonlight boat ride were enjoyed by postmasters of Orange county when they were entertained at Balboa Friday evening. They were dinner guests of Mrs. Ida Naylor, postmistress at Newport Beach, the boat ride being arranged by the Newport Chamber of Commerce. A short program was presented, following dinner, which included vocal solos by Mrs. J. B. Horner. Frank Haverty died Monday afternoon, at the sanitarium, following an operation. He had been ill for some time, and an operation was determined upon in the hope of saving his life, but he failed to recover afterward. He was a contractor and builder, and has lived in Anaheim eight years. He was 49 years old, and leaves a wife and three children, the oldest being 17 years of age. Funeral arrangements are awaiting arrival of friends from the east. Mr. and Mrs. Jimmie Holcomb are the proud parents of a bouncing 10-pound baby boy, born to them at Caféxico, on August 12.

Lemon St. Telephone 18 Launderers Dry Cleaners Asks Co-operation To Fight Disease Dr. Presson Preparing to Head Off Infantile Paralysis Asking the co-operation of citizens in guarding against infantile paralysis, of which there was said to be one case in the county, Dr. V. G. Presson, health officer of Orange county, made public a statement. "The county health department," the statement said, "has had numerous calls from various sections of the county regarding the infantile paralysis (polomyelitis) situation. The state health department has informed us that this disease is on the increase throughout the state and should be watched for in every locality. There is no cause for alarm whatever, but it is best that the public know the exact situation regarding things of this nature. "At the present time there is only one case of this disease in Orange county, and that is located in the northwest part. The health department is doing everything possible to prevent this disease in Orange county, and asks for the co-operation of the people in the county. To prevent the spreading of infantile paralysis it is necessary to keep the following things in mind: "Keep your children off the streets. Do not let them play with any child or adult who is not entirely well. Keep sick persons who do not belong in your family out of your house. Infantile paralysis is a serious disease. It has a mortality rate of about 20 per cent, and many of those who do recover are permanently crippled for life. Primarily it is a disease of childhood, but many adults also contract it. It is now thought that many persons suffer from this disease but do not reach the paralytic stage. In other words, they have all the other symptoms of the disease but are not paralyzed, and these people are the ones who unconsciously spread the disease. Persons should be very careful about coming in contact with people suffering from what apparently is a head cold, for this is one of the symptoms of infantile paralysis." Fair Growth Sets Pace in Southland Larger Program Gives First Rank to County Fair A record pace has been set in constructing Orange county's industrial, agricultural and livestock exposition. H. A. Lake, fair association president, declared today, the fair virtually to rank first in the state in diversity of products and variety of program. The wealth of the Southland harvests from farm and orchard districts, to be shown in larger variety, and the afternoon and evening entertainment program, is the combined offering of the six-day celebration which opens September 5. The numerous attractions will include, according to Lake, daily rodeo performances, a horse show of thoroughbred stock, a sham battle demonstration, and special lodge drill of the Southern California Scots. To amplify this program, 13 bands were included, officials said, and among these are juvenile and fraternal bands, Indian musicians and a band of "roving" minstrels. Chief Standing Bear, it was said, is to be the principal figure in the Indian village at the fair, and, with his tribesmen, will carry out the Indian motif idea, which is also included as a part of the decorative and exhibit scheme. Doubled in size, officials declare the fair is attracting wide general interest in southern counties for its multitude of features. This growth, according to A. M. Stanley, secretary of the fair board, is due to a permanent location, proper financing, and public confidence. Success has followed the building of the fair, due to the co-operation of all sections of the county. With such continued whole-hearted support there seems to be no limit to our growth. The main tents, according to Fair Manager J. R. Hunt, have been arranged to care for several new departments, and many new features were added. Tents go up within a week, it was said, and exhibitors are making early preparations to arrange displays its general magnitude." A large crew of workmen today were rushing construction on grandstands. Eighty new box stalls for horse show stock and new accommodations for rodeo horses were completed this week. Other improvements are under way to care for the enlarged exposition and daily arena programs. "The high class of entertainment will be a surprise to many visitors," declared F. L. Purinton of Santa Ana, treasurer of the fair association and rodeo director.

Famous Old Press Still Being Used Mark Twain's old printing press—the one he used to print his newspaper in Aurora—is still doing daily duty in the office of the Inyo Independent, a weekly newspaper at Independence. Made in New York, the press was first shipped to Baton Rouge, where it printed the "Dime Catcher," one of the first papers to boost Zachary Taylor for president. After his election the press was shipped to California via Panama, in the gold rush days of '49. On the way across the Isthmus the press sank with a barge that foundered in the Chagres river. However, it was hauled out and used to print the Panama Herald in two languages—English and Spanish. Continuing its migration, the press stopped on the gold coast in San Diego, and in San Francisco, where Mark Twain found it. He packed up the press and hauled it to Aurora by wagon, where he and Dret Harte, "associate editor," used it for their paper.
