OBSERVATIONS
HAVE YOU SMUDGE POTS? WHY, NO!
A PROGRESSIVE orchardist of this section, a few years ago, purchased $3000 worth of smudge pots, as an experiment, and he also bought one of those new-fangled thermometers that tell you when you get up in the morning how cold it was the night before. He instructed his men to wait up one night, wher it looked like a freeze was coming, and to light the fires if it go down below 28 degrees. Well, you know, the fires were no lighted, and for several seasons thereafter, he says, the same conditions prevailed, and not having any use for those smudge pots, he told his men to dump them out in the sandwash—which they did.
SMOKING OUT THE FAVORITE SONS
Now that the presidential year is upon us, many states are naming men for the high and exalted office. Down Oklahoma way comes word that they have nominated that versatile humorist for that honor on the Democratic ticket. "Let's give the country back to the Indians," says an enthusiast. "Our candidate is proud of his Cherokee blood. The white man," he allows, "wrested the country from them' in the beginning, and it's time that debt was paid." Would we'uns have to go back to the tomahawk and painted ponies?
THAT MAKES IT UNANIMOUS
Over in Paris it has been decreed that women's knees must be covered at night. Now, as it is presumed, in gay Parce (almost) everybody goes to bed at sunup, the "hinges" are gone for good.
THE GERM CHASERS RETREAT
Over in Constantinople street car conductors have been told to watch for passengers who eat onions, especially when it is cold and the windows are closed, and when guilty persons are detected they must be thrown out. Oh, how the boarders yell when they hear the dinner bell, and oh how the onions smell three times a day.

THERE WOULD BE A HOT TIME IN DARKTOWN
SHOULD you put your ear to the fight listening post, you will hear that in those elimination contests among the big white hopes, that big black shadow is always "eliminated." Some sport writers say that the black demon can lick the whole bunch, provided he didn't dislocate his hip or elbow. As to the two best bets among the white, it is said the black man could dispatch both of them in the same ring, one right after the other.
UP IN A BALLOON, BOYS
A TOWN up the road may annex a Zeppelin factory—but they have no airport.
RUNNING A FREE HORSE TO DEATH
IN A seacoast town the police have started a drive against vendors of certain brands of tonic that are on the market. The labels tell you the liquid is for that run down feeling, but some eager persons who were anxious to help a long suffering public have been serving the life-saver over the bars for immediate and frequent consumption. A teaspoonsful before or after meals is guaranteed to make the lame walk; but when the bartenders began offering the potion to thirsty customers, while the foot rested on the rail, the minions of the law allowed there might be too much high stepping going on down around their bailiwick, so they put the law on them, bygosh.
LETTING LOOSE TO GET NEW START
ANOTHER inferiority complex has been unearthed in an up-state city, where a young woman had a male member of a will party arrested for attacking her, and then pleading to have him released. The young lady shook hands with her assailant, saying she felt happier than she had felt since all that started. And the man apologized to the girl, and at last reports it looked like things would be all patched up and everybody would be happy ever after; and the breathless public is left helpless, wondering what it was all about.
CHARITY SHOULD BEGIN AT HOME
AFTER the leathernecks clean up that band of rebels down Nicaragua way, it might be a good idea to have them take a hand in subduing some of the bandits that are roaming around in the jungles in some of the cities round about in the U.S.A.
POOR RULE THAT WONT WORK BOTH WAYS
SHOULD that idea of pleading guilty by reason of insanity spread, when a fellow commits murder, there is reason to believe that plea might be also invoked when a man is being sued for divorce; and again if you bumped off your neighbor for tuning in on his radio when you wanted to hit the hay.

IT'S A SORT OF BOYISH BOB
AGENIUS from over the big pond has invented a powerful contraption that plucks chickens by suction. It works as a vacuum, and the feathers fly when the machine is in motion. A whirligig running at about 400 revolutions a minute is used on pullets, but when old hens come in, the wheel goes a good deal faster. With the roosters everything comes off, even the pin feathers. It is said they get everything except the squawk and the spurs.
BELIEVE IT OR NOT
AS AN instance, on January 27 it was reported that up in Canada the thermometer dropped to 30 degrees below; in the Northwest it ranged from 1 to 10 degrees below, while in the Middle West it was snowing. But in and around Anaheim the sun was shining brightly, and a farmer, living two miles south of here, brought in the first nice ripe strawberries of the season. A local merchant grabbed up the lot, and he said they went like hot cakes.
THE DRIFTWOOD
WHENEVER something sensational occurs, such as a fiendish murder, the "special" writers come out in force and attend the trial. They go into individual details and tell how the culprit parts his hair, how he is dressed, how he moistens his lips with his tongue when the lawyers talk of the gallows; they speak of his personality, how he smiles or frowns, as the occasion permits, and a whole lot of stuff, as they see it from an intellectual viewpoint. But, really folks, all the busy world cares for is the cold facts—nothing else. You know, good people are so busy nowadays that they keep their engines running, and they don't care a whoop for the other fellow's opinion no time, no how, no where.
County Airport Will Be Aviation Center
Supervisors Grant Concessions to Builders and Flyers
Evidence that the Orange county airport is preparing to step into place in the near future as one of the prominent aviation centers of this section was seen when Antar Deraga, of the citizens' advisory committee on aeronautics, announced to the board of supervisors that a number of requests for hangar space have come to him, and that several aviators are ready to erect buildings there as soon as leasing arrangements are perfected.
These men will erect $5000 hangars, Deraga stated, and will design them to conform to government specifications, or requirements adopted by the supervisors.
Deraga emphasized again the recommendation made by the committee that hangar space be given free for a period of three years, and the board received the suggestion favorably. Chairman William Schumacher informed Deraga that District Attorney Z. B. West, Jr., would be asked to prepare a leasing arrangement in which the committee's advice would be carried out.
Board members were enthusiastic over the possibilities offered by the airport and stressed the probable advantages which will accrue to Orange county from developing a well equipped field. The belief that aviation in Orange county is bound to expand into an activity of considerable commercial prominence was expressed.
According to the plan suggested, free hangar space would be granted for three years at this time and aviators locating here a year from now would be given two years free rent.

SANTA ANA'S TROUBLES
The mountain hath labored and brought forth a mouse. In other words, the widely heralded city manager system that was to revolutionize municipal matters for Santa Ana and make at least two dollars grow where only about four bits grew before has proven a veritable dud, and the futile effort of the city council to lift its collective self up by the slack of its breeches will probably be abandoned and Spurlos Vercoukt written as its epitaph.
For the recently appointed manager, probably the best business man locally available, has thrown up the sponge and handed in his resignation and report has it that the council is in a quandary whether to appoint his successor to go back to the original system of having each municipal department supervised by a separate head.
Not that a dearth of material in the way of aspirants for the place confronts the city council, for several Orange county cities are reported to have already signified their willingness to come to Santa Anna's relief and furnish the wisdom of Solomon, the financial ability of Harriman, the meekness of Moses, and the ability of Jack Dempsey to take it. In case hard knocks come his way.
The job has so far paid $500 a month, and that is no bad salary for what seems a snap. Fullerton in particular offers one of her citizens, and one from Orange is also in the race, while Santa Ana herself might recruit a round dozen, chiefly from the local chambers of commerce and other uplift organizations.
It is altogether possible, however, that the council will be satisfied with its initial plunge into frenzied finance and will again take up the white man's burden and supervise the distribution of the taxpayers' money by direct action.
Anyway, the matter will be the subject of earnest discussion until it is finally settled in some manner, as the taxpayers are beginning to wonder whether or not they have any rights and whether or not they will be allowed to insist upon using them.—Contributed

Hotzone
WATER HEATER
Your gas company has made it amazingly easy for you to have a real hot water system in your home. Install a Hotzone Self Action Gas Water Heater and you will always have steaming hot water at the turn of a faucet—day or night.
A small payment—your old heater, if you wish—will place the Welsbach Hotzone in your home. The balance is payable in eighteen monthly installments.
On a purely business basis, the Hotzone is a good investment, adding more than its cost to the value of your home. But the Hotzone means so much more to you—in lighter housework and low cost of operation—that it is hard to base its value on dollars and cents alone.
Drop into your local gas office, and see for yourself how much the new Hotzone can mean to your home—and how really easy it is to own.
