County Fair Has Deficit of $3000 Association Votes to Keep It Open on Sundays Hereafter Enthusiastic support was given suggestions at the annual meeting of the Orange County Fair association, Monday night, at the Orange County Fair grounds, that the fair in future years be kept open on Sundays, and discussions by directors present indicated possibility of the board giving final approval to such a plan at a meeting to be held Thursday night of next week. It was indicated, however, that should such action be taken, the unusement zone would be closed on Sunday, with entertainment provided only in the main feature tent. Discussions revealed sentiment of those speaking favoring opening of the annual display on Tuesday or Wednesday preceding Labor Day and closing on the evening of Labor Day. In submitting his report on the 1928 fair, President H. A. Lake disclosed that the association this year sustained a deficit of $8000. The loss was attributed to small attendance. It was the opinion of officials that attendance was affected by the heat prevailing at the time of the show. Following remarks by W. B. Williams, J. P. Baungartner and C. H. Chapman complimentary to the 1928 fair and expressions to the effect that the management should not be discouraged by reason of a deficit for the last fair. Director Frank Purinton discussed financial assistance received by other fairs from the boards of supervisors and quoted figures showing county aid given the fairs in Riverside, Pomona, Kern and other counties. He cited the Bakerfield and Pomona fairs as receiving $10,000 each from the boards of supervisors and compared this with the $2500 appropriated for the fair here by the Orange county board of supervisors. Possibility of the fair here being taken over by the state as a district fair before the time for the next annual display was indicated by Lake when he said that Gov. C. C. Young favored the placing of district fairs under control of the state. In such an event a board Many are the changes that have taken place since their arrival here on October 23rd, 1868, and great was the hardships they and the first farmers had to endure for the first 10 or 15 yeras. Dry years, grasshopper years, and wild mustangs getting in on what crops were raised, and freight to San Francisco by steamer so high. The Captain can tell of some amusing things that happened in the early days when the country was in its wild state. Anaheim was all in vineyards, fenced in on all sides by willow fences to keep out the wild horses. Had an entrance in from north to south and cast to west. There were two general stores, one was kept by A. Langenberger and the other by Davis Brothers; a blacksmith shop by Adams, a Greek restaurant, a butcher shop run by Conrad Kuchel, father of Henry Kuchel, present owner of the Gazette, and the Planters' Hotel kept by John Fisher, a happy, good-natured man like all the other Germans that started the mother colony in 1857. There were no cities between San Diego and Los Angeles like those of today. Only stage stations about every 15 miles, and an adobe house to be seen about 20 to 30 miles apart. Los Angeles had two hotels, the Lasayette, an adobe building, and the U.S., a wooden structure on Main street, and the population at that time was not much over 6000? So one can see at a glance what a change man has made in 60 years, turning what might be termed a desert into the garden spot of the world. Land bought in 1868 for $10.00 per square could have been sold for $6000 before 1928, and I think the opportunity in Southern California is greater today than it was in 1868, because you will not have to wait so long. The way to be convinced is to take a trip through the different counties, say once a year, and see the unoccupied land being settled up. From the time the Captain joined the British Navy and fought throughout the entire Crimean War, in the taking of Sebastapool, Nights of Alma, Balakawa and numerous other engagements; bounded and being nursed by Florence Nightingale, the Mother of the Red Cross, the Captain has seen some of the world and its ups and downs.

W Sch A school for by the Anahe Monday evening information formed speaker county, it is The following items: N. M retary of the C. Hartrantt, Frank Merrill, Rev. Ben heim, No. 5; No. 7; Nelson and 18; Leonc 11. 15 and 20 of the Anahe No. 49 PROSPERITY BENEFITS How the prosperity enjoyed by one business tends to promote the welfare of those in other lines of work is striking shown by the activity of the railroads serving the city of Flint. Always busy transporting the manufactured products of this seething industrial center, the roads are working overtime this summer, largely because of increase in the output of a Flint industry—the Buick Motor company. George F. Howard, Northern Orange county dealer, said that a few years ago, shipment of a whole trainroad of automobiles would have attracted widespread attention as an evidence of remarkable business prosperity. The world marvelled then at stories of Buicks leaving Flint in trainload lots—sometimes at the rate of two or three such shipments in one week. Today, the Pere Marquette railroad alone handles from six to eight full trainloads of Buick cars every day, besides about the same number of Buickers in less than trainload shipments—and it is arranging to take care of even greater shipments necessitated by the nation-wide demand for these cars. "We get two trainloads, averaging 80 to 90 freight cars, each containing three automobiles, away for Chicago Junction every night," said the Pere Marquette official in charge of the Buick shipments over his company's rails. "About the same number leaves each day for Suspension Bridge, Ont. There is one trainload a day for Detroit, one for Toledo, and generally one for Milwaukee via Ludington, or for some other point. All this is in addition to many ten or twenty-carload shipment sto other cities." Paul Bailey Talks On Flood Menace Tells Legislative Committee the Dangers of Santa Ana Addressing members of the state legislative committee, and the board of supervisors and citizens' advisory committee on flood control, Paul Bailey, flood control engineer, Friday night declared that a repetition at the present time of a flood similar to the one of 1916 would cause damage double or treble that experienced 12 years ago. Bailey spoke at Ketner's café, where the legislative group was informed of Orange county water conditions. More intensive cultivation of the land in Orange county, a population which has doubled since 1916, and the fact that the banks of the Santa Ana river have been pushed in from the sides, were reasons given by Bailey for the potentially greater flood danger. Such a flood, however, would not fill a Santa Ana canyon reservoir, as planned tentatively, more than two-thirds. Bailey said. A whole lifetime might pass in Orange county without seeing it entirely full, he pointed out, explaining that it would be the purpose of such a project to bring about a uniform percolation of water to the underground basin. About 1000 second feet would be allowed to flow continually from the dam and only at flood time would it approach fullness. Such a project, Bailey declared, would bring about 95 to 98 per cent conservation. Orange county now uses 230,000 acre feet of water yearly, but in the future, will require 400,000 acre feet annually. Bailey stated. Seventy-five per cent of the water is pumped from the underground basin which it is the purpose of the proposed dam to keep supplied. Bailey recalled that the well levels in Orange county have dropped from 40 to 60 feet since 1922. The legislative group has been touring California on an investigation of water conditions, with a view in determining how much state aid a given district will require. In response to a direct question as to how much this region would need, Senator Ralph E. Swing, of San Jacinto, told the committee that the southern region would expect to be treated with the same fairness not have to wait so long. The way to be convinced is to take a trip through the different counties, say once a year, and see the unoccupied land being settled up. From the time the Captain joined the British Navy and fought throughout the entire Crimean War, in the taking of Sebastapool, Nights of Alma, Balakava and numerous other engagements; rounded and being nursed by Florence Nightingale, the Mother of the Red Cross, the Captain has seen some of the world and its ups and downs. He came to San Francisco about 1861 and so Murdock 7 years later, both inailing vessels around Cape Horn.

"About the same number leaves each day for Suspension Bridge, Ont. There is one trainload a day for Detroit, one for Toledo, and generally one for Milwaukee via Ludington, or for some other point. All this is in addition to many ten or twenty-carload shipmentsto other cities. "Most of these trainloads are broken up at their original destinations, and re-shipped to their ultimate goals, though frequently a single Buick branch or distributor receives an entire trainload, or even more, at one time. "The urgent demand for these new cars has forced us, too, to expedite their movement in every way. The inauguration of through service, with careful timing of the trains to arrive at ferry points, for instance, ahead of the day's traffic, has enabled us to speed things up greatly. It now requires 24 hours, instead of 48, to ruspension Bridge or Chicago Junction, and a trainload leaving Thursday by 7 p.m. will reach New York before 5 a.m. Monday. And that's fast movement of freight." 60th Anniversary Of Arrival Here Capt. Alexander Henry and Family Celebrate Event Last Tuesday, the 23rd, marked 60 years for Capt. Alexander N. Henry and family as residents of Anaheim. His brother, Murdock, although not a continual resident, arrived at the same time, coming from San Francisco on the Steamer Orizaba to San Pedro, thence to Anaheim by stage. Senator Swing presided at the session. He introduced Senator Crittenden, of Tracy, chairman of the committee. Swing complimented Orange county on the selection of Nelson T. Edwards, of Orange, and Edward Craig, of Brea, as senator and assemblyman respectively for the next legislative term. Edwards and Craig were present last night. William Schumacher, chairman of the board of supervisors, after being presented to the committee by Swing, welcomed the group to Orange county, and expressed this section's appreciation of the efforts being made to understand the water condition here. State Engineer Edward Hyatt was present as a member of the group which is touring the state. Among representatives from neighboring counties was Francis Cuttle, president of the Tri-Counties Water Conservation association. Supervisor Willard Smith, of Orange, outlined to the gathering the irrigation problems in the region affected by the Santiago creek and told of the plans for storage reservoirs on that stream. H. H. Hoy, water engineer; J. P. Lippincott, who made preliminary studies on flood control in Orange county; Col. S. H. Finley, supervisor from Santa Ana, and a leader in the water conservation movement; and Donald J. Dodge, member of the citizens' advisory committee from Costa Mesa, talked briefly to the committee. Will H. Fisher Given Promotion Now Assistant to President Ballard of the Edison Company Will H. Fischer has been made assistant to the president of the Southern California Edison company, according to an announcement emanating from the office of R. H. Ballard, president. Beginning his business career in newspaper work, Fischer has maintained an active interest in public affairs. In the summer of 1899 he began work on San Francisco papers and continued in newspaper work in San Francisco for several years. In 1911 he became editor of the California Outlook, a weekly published in Los Angeles. This post he resigned to become an editorial writer on the Los Angeles Evening Express and the Morning Tribune, continuing this work until he joined the Taxpayers' Association of California in an executive capacity. Joning the Edison company in 1921, Fischer has been very close to President Ballard in all matters bearing upon public relations. During his entire business life Fischer has been a leading spirit in the Masonic order and has just completed a year as Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of California. K. P.
