With the advent of the automobile and the age of machinery, the horse decreased in importance until it seemed that he would shortly become merely a curiosity in place of a necessary factor in everyday life. Nevertheless, in spite of predictions to the contrary, in the few years since the World War, the horse has come back with all his traditions of romance and glory, not so much as a worker, but more as a companion to man, a sharer of his leisure hours and a means of exercise and enjoyment surpassed by none.

Buick has Dedicated to the Horse Courtesy of "Sportologue" In times past the horse was man's most valuable worker, being the premier method of conveyance and hauler of burdens. With the advent of the automobile and the age of machinery, the horse decreased in importance until it seemed that he would shortly become merely a curiosity in place of a necessary factor in everyday life. Nevertheless, in spite of predictions to the contrary, in the few years since the World War, the horse has come back with all his traditions of romance and glory, not so much as a worker, but more as a companion to man, a sharer of his leisure hours and a means of exercise and enjoyment surpassed by none. It is seldom a week passes in this country that there is not formed a new saddle or riding club, polo club, or some other such organization for the promotion of saddle riding amongst the general public. This brings the demand for trails and bridle paths where enthusiasts may ride, and it is the progressive and up-to-date community which supplies this demand. Upland, a modern residential community, nestling at the base of the foothills bordering the city of Los Angeles, nas as its main thoroughfare, Euclid Avenue Drive. This beautiful boulevard, stretching for miles upon miles, straight as an arrow, is lined on both sides by the best type of California homes. These spacious homes are interpersed by country estates surrounded by orange groves, with here and there a church spire showing above the treetops. Up the center of this noted boulevard runs a broad parkway bored on both sides by an unending row of magnificent popper trees, which through years of growth and care have become of unusual size, and their graceful boughs droop over the parkway, forming a natural evergreen canopy. Years ago this parkway was used as a tramway, the power of locomotion being supplied by mules, and even at this time was considered one of the sights of the Southland, and a visiting spot of tourists. This was later replaced by electrified cars, which operated until the general use of automobiles reduced, the patronage to such an extent that the line was abandoned. As soon as the tracks were removed it occurred to a citizen of Upland that the city was at least fifty years ahead of any other community if she desired to place a bridle path where the electric line formerly operated. As soon as the idea was presented to the City Council the members entered into the plan, and today Upland has the foundation placed for a bridle path destined to become famous within a very short time, for it offers an attraction to the equestrian that will draw the finest element in the country to enjoy their favorite recreation under the brilliant California sunshine and through its balmy moonlit nights. A committee has been formed, consisting of members of-the City Council and Chamber of Commerce, which has made an extensive survey of the bridle paths in neighboring communities. Gathering from here and there the best ideas for shrubbery and flowers for the borders as well as the various types of surfacing for the path, the committee will be equipped to lay out a bridle path that will enhance Upland's charm. When this path is completed no more beautiful sight will be found the world over. The feathery foliage of the pepper trees, with the brilliant clusters of scarlet berries brightening the green, the varied types of shrubbery intermingled with the colorful California poppy, deep red roses, riders in their vivid costumes, graceful spirited horses cantering along gravel paths, will make a never-to-be-forgotten picture. However, Euclid avenue bridle path is not all that Upland has to offer the horse lover, for this path connects with the municipal park and the miles of trails skirting Old Baldy and leading through Cucamonga Canyon, San Antonio Canyon and over San Antonio Heights. From spots on these bridle trails-magnificent views spread before the rider, with panoramas that stretch from San Bernardino to the Pacific, a distance of nearly a hundred miles. Already these inducements to ride are having their effect. Residents are increasing their stables and groups of riders are gathering while the homeseeker from the East is laying his plans to build close to these advantages. Fathers and Sons Will Hold Picnic Nov. 4 Set for Annual Barbecue At Orange County Park The county-wide Fathers' and Sons' barbecue, promoted by the Y. M. C. A., was definitely set for Friday evening, November 4, at a meeting of the county "Y" committee, held Saturday at Anaheim. The big event will be held at the county fair grounds. Archie Raitt, secretary at Fullerton, will direct the barbecue dinner. M. E. Beebe, chairman of the committee, confirmed previous announcement that Ralph Cole, former secretary for Orange county, will be one of the speakers. The Santa Ana Hi-Y orchestra will furnish music, while other entertaining features will be included in the program. Beebe said that he wished it understood that the event is open to men and boys of Orange county, regardless of identification with the organization. Last year the attendance was approximately 1000, and this number will be exceeded this year, in the opinion of the chairman. The point was stressed that provision will be made only for those who make reservations. Reservations may be made at the local Y. M. C. A. any time up to November 2. Beebe pointed out that the county-wide fathers and sons event, so far as has been ascertaind, is strictly an Orange county project. "There is nothing like it in all the United States, the event being made Annual Meeting of Epworth League Two Hundred Gather at White Temple Church Sunday Nearly 200 young people, representing Epworth League chapters in all parts of Orange county, gathered in the White Temple Methodist church here Sunday afternoon for the annual meeting of the Orange county division of the San Diego Epworth League district. A. Bennett, president of the San Diego district, was a special guest of the day and presided over the sessions. Dr. Benjamin S. Haywood, pastor of the local church, and Raymond Cheatum, president of the host league chapter, made brief addresses of welcome, while District President Bennett responded for the visitors, and gave the principal address of the day. At 5 o'clock the members adjourned to the church social hall, where refreshments were served and program enjoyed consisting of violin solos by Alan Rains, and vocal numbers by Percy W. Olds, choir leader of the White Temple church, and the Collins twins, Esther and Ellen. Over 80,000 women are employed by the United States government. The United States produced two billion eggs last year. This is at the rate of about 760 eggs each second. possible by the climate and the compact organization of the "Y" in the county." Beebe told. Buicks Predominate In One of Largest Taxicab Companies One of the strongest testimonials to Buick's performance, reliability and low upkeep cost is the experience of the Checker Cab Company of Detroit, which operates the largest motor fleet in Michigan and one of the largest in the country. Among the 650 cars which Checker has in the streets today, Buicks number 370, or more than all other makes combined. For in Detroit, which has the reputation of being "motor-wise," the public has come to demand the same luxury and comfort in its cabs as in its private cars. George F. Howard of the George F. Howard, Inc., Buick distributors for northern Orange county, said that every driver in the Checker organization is free to select the make of car he prefers. The factors which influence his choice are much the same as those which influence the private owner. They include performance and riding case, which insure the passenger of fast, comfortable travel; style, which makes him proud to be seen entering or leaving the cab; reliability, which obviates delays en route, and low upkeep cost, which enables the cab to return a profit. The extent to which Buick fulfills all these requirements, in the opinion of Checker drivers, may be gauged from the fact that 85 per cent of new cars being added to the Checker fleet today are Buicks. Approximately 100 of the 1928 Buick models have been added in the last 60 days. Robert T. Brougham, general manager of the cab company, said, "We shall have 700 cars in operation by holiday time." Buick performance in the hands of the Checker drivers, who first introduced it into taxicab work, has been responsible for the spread of its popularity. It was pointed out. Detroit, which makes, talks and thinks motor cars, was quick to respond to the chance to travel in comfort. Driver after driver installed Buicks, until today, when each driver may own three cars, many own them exclusively. "I'm satisfied," said one of these men, "Buick has the performance, comfort, government map of flooded area will prove useful to those interested in subject" A map of a large part of the Mississippi valley just issued by the geological survey. Department of the Interior, should prove useful to students of the great national problem now before the country as a result of the recent disastrous floods of the Mississippi. The Mississippi is a river of floods. When first seen by white men, at the time De Soto discovered it, the river was in flood. For millions of years these floods have been building the valley and delta of the Mississippi. So long as the valley was inhabited only by a primitive people, the floods did little or no damage. The Indians who happened to be near the river simply moved back to higher ground, with little inconvenience, and let the floods pass. The great Mississippi basin is, however, too valuable to remain unused. No other river basin on the globe combines topography, soil, and climate to make an attractive living conditions as those of the Mississippi. The basin will therefore be used more and more as the population of the country increases and its needs for food and other products of the lands are enlarged. With increased development and use of the valley lands, the floods have become more serious in the danger to both life and property, and the record flood of 1927 has called public attention to the impelling fact that effective plans must be made for keeping the damage from flood waters within bounds. As a result of this interest, there has been an insistent demand for a base map of that part of the basin that is affected by floods, on which the various plans for flood control might be shown. Such a base map has therefore been prepared by the geological survey, extending from Dubuque to the gulf and from beyond Omaha, Tulsa, and Houston on the west, to Chicago, Evansville, and Tuscaloosa on the east, embracing a region about 900 miles long and 600 miles wide. The scale of the map is approximately 16 miles to the inch. It may be obtained from the geological survey, Washington, at 50 cents a copy. State Farm Bureau Meets at Riverside All day meetings of state farm bureau convention to be held at Riverside, October 31 and November 1 and 2 will be held in the Elks' hall, at Eleventh and Main streets, according to announcements made by Myron Winslow, farm advisor of Riverside. In order to accommodate the expected large crowds, the evening meeting on Monday, at which Sam H. Hhompson, president of the American Farm Bureau Federation, will discuss the national issues of agriculture, will be held in the Pilgrim's hall, Seventh and Lemon streets. A great many people from Orange county are planning to attend this meeting, and it is thought that this will be the largest audience assembled at any time during the convention. Tuesday evening the Riverside Farm Bureau will give all visiting delegates and friends a free banquet at the West Riverside schoolhouse, which is two and one-half miles out of the city. Buick performance in the hands of the Checker drivers, who first introduced it into taxicab work, has been responsible for the spread of its popularity. It was pointed out. Detroit, which makes, talks and thinks motor cars, was quick to respond to the chance to travel in comfort. Driver after driver installed Buicks, until today, when each driver may own three cars, many own them exclusively. "I'm satisfied," said one of these men, "Buick has the performance, comfort, and good looks the public is demanding; it's the easiest car I know to control in traffic, and therefore the safest, and its upkeep cost is next to nothing. One of our boys piled up 220,000 miles in three years in his 1924 Buick, and the average is something like 70,000 a year. It takes a real car to stand up under that." The fact that it predominates among the numerous makes of cars in the Checker fleet has a meaning for every owner, present or prospective. A. H. Sarvis, assistant general sales manager of the Buick Motor Company, pointed out, "It is proof," said Mr. Sarvis, "that it not only offers, in an outstanding degree those refinements of performance and comfort which the public demands today, but that it provides these at remarkably low maintenance cost. Like the data gathered at the General Motors proving ground, the experience of cab companies using Buicks is a safe guide to the motor car buyer, for it is based on a more intensive test than the average private owner ever can give his car." POPULAR COUPLE WED Mrs. Ella B. Roberts and Dr. J. A. Warner of New York were married on Saturday evening, at 6:30 o'clock, in St. Boniface's Catholic church, by Rev. Father Browne. The ceremony was witnessed by Mrs. Mary Stroka, mother of the bride, and Mr. and Mrs. Jud Rush of Flintridge. A sumptuous wedding supper was served at the home of the bride after the ceremony. Congratulations and best wishes are extended the happy couple by many friends and acquaintances in this city. Dr. and Mrs. Warner will reside for the present in Anaheim. No. 412 H Mother!
