P.-T. A. Holds Annual Meet at Buena Park Officers to Serve Next Two Years Elected at Session The Fourth District Parent-Teacher Association, in annual meeting at Buena Park last Saturday, elected the following officers for the ensuing two years: President, Mrs. Neal Belsel, Santa Ana; second vice-president, Mrs. Fay Spangler; recording secretary, Mrs. A. C. Fleckering, Yorba Linda; corresponding secretary, Mrs. F. L. Perman, Anaheim; financial secretary, Mrs. William L. Holve, Fullerton; auditor, Mrs. Charles Schwinfest, Anaheim. These officers will assume their duties at the executive board meeting which will be held in Huntington Beach on June 12. Dean W. T. Boyce of Fullerton, addressed the meeting on the subject of junior colleges. In part he said: "The junior college is designed to provide a broadened curriculum which shall include fields of knowledge useful to the local community and work suited to a variety of mental abilities. It prolongs the residence of the student in the community, and the home, thereby enriching the civic life. A high standard is held for the work given in the college, yet a more sympathetic and kindly environment is provided for the student than is possible in the larger institutions. There are more adults enrolled in educational work today than in all the student registrations at various institutions. The junior college offers these adults the opportunity they desire for pursuing vocational and industrial studies." "The greatest problem facing the junior college in a community is the manner in which it shall be housed. The consensus of opinion among educators seems to be in favor of housing the junior college in a plant entirely separate from that of the high school, thus providing an atmosphere of dignity which attracts students to the institution. Several small communities may very well unite to provide this separate plant, giving increased financial resources, than are possible in a smaller college. Regional jealousy in today who keep it up." Q—Can a pensioner of the United States assign his pension after his death? A—Pensions are paid only during the lifetime of the pensioner. FREE TRADE EXPERIENCE The experiences of the Florida farmers are respectfully offered to the western free trade orators who have been telling the farmers that a protective tariff can do them no good. The pity of it all is that the other wing of the free trade argument crumples too. In spite of these great importations from foreign countries, the householder who buys these products in the market knows that he is getting them no cheaper than he would get them if they were raised in America by decently paid labor. The American producer is injured by the dumping of the cheap foreign products, but the American consumer pays the high price just the same.

Regional jealousy in the location of the site for a union junior college should be eliminated entirely, and the best interests of the students be the only consideration." Promote Windbreaks Through Co-operation The idea of fathering a law to permit the formation of a windbreak district and provide wind protection in a community project was abandoned at the Villa Park Farm Center meeting after mature consideration. It would take at least two years to pass such a law and create a district under its provisions, so it was felt the project could be pushed more rapidly through an educational campaign. Another reason for abandoning the idea was the reluctance of the farm center to have anyone think they were being "forced" to plant a windbreak, the farm center recognizing the possible success of co-operation. It was suggested that the county farm bureau prepare a measure to permit the formation of the windbreak districts so that the machinery would be possible for any other district, but even this was abandoned. Considering the care necessary to maintain a windbreak after it is planted, possibly legal action to form a district would not bring the more desirable results which might be obtained by education and co-operation. THINGS WORTH KNOWING Q—Who is the chief of the Bureau of Navigation of the Navy? A—Rear Admiral Richard H. Leigh. Q—What was the decision of the United States supreme court in the case of the Russian government against the Lehigh Valley railroad for damages of about $850,000 growing out of the Black Tom island disaster? A—the decision was in favor of Russia. The United States government has ordered that the money be turned over to the financial agent of the defunct Kerensky government. After deducting attorney's fees and other costs, the balance will be paid into the United States treasury to be applied on a loan of $180,000,000 outstanding against Russia that was contracted by the Kerensky government. The United States has refused to recognize the bolshevist government of Russia. Q—Is heat or cold more effective for killing germs? A—Drying kills many species of A.

The United States has refused to recognize the bolshevist government of Russia. Q. Is heat or cold more effective for killing germs? A. Drying kills many species of bacteria; others simply remain inactive. Cold destroys many bacteria, though some are not killed by low temperatures. The typhoid bacillus can exist for many months frozen in a cake of ice, to become active and dangerous again when the ice is melted and used. Heat, especially moist heat, above a certain point kills all bacteria. The application of heat to the destructive bacteria is sterilization, thus boiling milk or water or cooking meats or vegetables destroys any bacteria that may be present. Q. What is the difference between a republic an da limited monarchy? A. The fundamental difference is that in a limited monarchy the duly constituted head of the state is a king or queen whose office and title pass to his or her heirs at demise and is principally determined by right of blood; while in a republic the sovereign or head of the state is generally a president elected by the people, either directly or through their representatives. Q. What is the population of New York City? A. The estimated population on January 1, 1927, was 5,970,800. Q. Why do dogs turn around several times before they lie down? A. Far back in the history of the animal kingdom, when the ancestors of our domestic dog were wild, they slept in the woods or open. When they were ready to lie down, they first had to trample the grass to make a place to lie down. This habit became one of the instincts of the animal which has been transmitted to the dogs of Cast Complete for Ramona Pageant Noted Stars Take Leading Roles in Great Outdoor Drama With the arrival in Hemet of Dorise Schukow, who will play the title role of the Ramona pageant for the fifth season, the entire cast for the spectacular outdoor drama of early California romance and history is on the ground. Miss Schukow has made a nationwide reputation for her portrayal of the heroine of Helen Hunt Jackson's immortal novel of early days in California. The star will be supported this year by Victor Jory, the Alessandro of the play for three years, and a cast of 180 experienced actors. More than 100 of the players have been in the cast each of the six years since the inception of the play. Marking his second long railroad journey to play the part, Victor Jory, star of outdoor drama, has arrived from Denver to take the leading male role for the fourth time in the Ramona pageant, spectacular historic drama, to open April 21, at Hemet. Romantic features of the drama and the sentiment attached to playing the role for the townspeople of Hemet and San Jacinto led him to relinquish a position as leading man with a dramatic company in the Colorado capital to come to California in response to an appeal by wire from Edward Poorman, president and general manager of the pageant. Jory stated on his arrival. Immediately after the final performance of the play on May 6, he will return east to join another company in St. Louis. Jory came from Salt Lake City in 1926 to play Alessandro, the Indian hero of the drama, in response to a similar appeal. He was compelled to refuse the request to come from Denver to play the part last year because of a minor operation. "I am at heart a Californian, and the most pleasurable days of my life have been during my three previous engagements with the pageant," stated Jory. "It is very gratifying to me to be brought from across the Rockies to contribute a small part to the preservation of California's early romance and traditions." The annual Ramona pageant is given in the Ramona bowl, a natural flower-banked amphitheatre, south of Hemet, in the shadow on Mount San Jacinto. The people of Hemet and San Jacinto, who operates the play as a non-profit community enterprise, have expanded more than $50,000 in the building of this great amphitheatre which is devoted exclusively to the six performances of the Ramona pageant each year. There are comfortable seating arrangements, accommodating more than 5000 people and an additional 5000 can be seated on the hillsides behind the seating sections of the bowl. There is every accommodation for the comfort of patrons. Ice water is piped under pressure to fountains in the alleyes of the theatre.

A corps of 100 ushers and other attendants are on hand at all times during the play. The great outdoor theatre has become famous for its unrivaled acoustic properties, the faltest whisper on the stage can be plainly heard at the topmost rim of the bowl. The play follows accurately the novel "Ramona," by Helen Hunt Jackson; and it is particularly appropriate that Ramona should be dramatized and produced by the people of Hemet and San Jacinto because it is in Old Town, San Jacinto half a century ago, that Mrs. Jackson found the characters and the historical background that have carried the Ramona story around the world. Many people still living in Hemet and San Jacinto were acquainted with the original Ramona and the original Alessandro and many other characters of the story. More than 30,000 people attended the Ramona play in its six performances last year. Arrangements have been made to care for 40,000 people during the 1928 season. Excellent paved highways lead to Hemet and the Ramona bowl from all parts of Southern California. The play starts at 3 o'clock each afternoon and ends just as the sun goes down over the hills that envelop the theatre, thus it is possible for patrons to return to their homes anywhere in Southern California after the play. Each mail is bringing a flood of ticket applications to the Ramona pageant offices, at Hemet. Schools, clubs, and organizations of all kinds are making up Ramona pageant parties. One application from a Los Angeles high school calls for 200 tickets. Scores of famous Californians will be in the audience at the first performance, Saturday, April 21. The play will be repeated Sunday, April 22, Saturday and Sunday, April 28 and 29, and Saturday and Sunday, May 5 and 6.
