American Legion Installs Officers All Posts in the County Gather at City Park Monday Night Officers of 11 American Legion posts in Orange county were indented into office in the Greek theatre in the Anaheim city park Monday night, in the presence of hundreds of representatives of nearly every civic and patriotic organization in the county. The formal installation was conducted by Phi11 Dodson, of Pasadena, past state commander. The theatre was elaborately decorated for the occasion and amplifiers were installed in order that every one present could hear the program. Delegations of members from Legion posts of the county accompanied their officers and large delegations of members of the Legion auxiliaries of the county were present to witness the first event of its sort ever staged in the county. The affair was sponsored by the Orange county Legion council and it is planned to make the joint installation an annual affair. The program opened with a concert by the American Legion band and an impressive advance of massed colors. Jimmie Heffron, of Anaheim, acted as toastmaster. In an address of welcome to the Legionpaires, L. E. Miller, mayor of Anaheim, expressed the pleasure of the city as a whole that the installation ceremonies were held here. He assured the veterans of the interest of the community in this work. Introduction of the city officials followed the mayor's address. Selections were played by the Santa Ana, Legion Bugle and Drum corps and the Orange Boy Scout Harmonica band. Dick Haster, of Garden Grove, past county council commander, gave an outline of veterans' welfare work being done by posts of the county and the state. He also told of the activities of the Legion posts in community betterment work. A talk was made by Margaret Kaeding, of Glendale, state first vice-president. 4-H Club Attends Davis Convention By ERIC E. EASTMAN Assistant Farm Advisor The 1928 Club Convention at Davis, October 18 to 20, was a great success, and Orange county ranked ace high in every feature, whether it be attendance, behavior, accomplishment or anything else. Thirty-nine boys and leaders left the Court House at 8:00 a.m., by auto and bus. Thanks are due to L. D. Coffing, Harry D. Riley and O. R. Hahn, Santa Ana automobile dealers; to Jim Smiley of West Orange, to E. D. Hartshorn of Costa Mesa, and to M. Elliste, implement dealer of Anaheim, for furnishing the transportation which made the trip possible. Barring two flat tires, the group arrived at Fresno without mishan, and put up for the night at the Freeso County Fair Grounds, by the courtesy of the 4-H leader there, A. F. Gillette. After an early breakfast, the group took the road again and stopped only at the A. B. Humphrey "Grapewild Farm," where purebred Guernsey stock and the complete equipment of the ranch were inspected. The road, lined with dairy farms, leciduous fruits, grapes and cotton, was most interesting to the boys. Before nightfall, everything was smeared with grapes; all grapes not edible being used for offense, defense and decoration. Arrived at Davis, and the first event was a general assembly, where a program was presented; the principal feature of which was a play by the Alford club, Riverside county, featuring the principles and ideals of the 4-H work. The boys were welcomed by officers of the college and entertained by the college glee club and moving pictures. The 4-H Camp was set in the middle of the campus, in regular army style; a square of tents with headquarters in the center. The Orange county delegation was located on the east side of the square and assigned to Batallon No. 3. A thick layre of tsraw had been placed on the floor of the tents, and the beds were unrolled upon the straw for a good night's sleep. When the bugle sounded "Assembly." Introduction of the city officials followed the mayor's address. Selections were played by the Santa Ana, Legion Bugle and Drum corps and the Orange Boy Scout Harmonica band. Dick Haster, of Garden Grove, past county council commander, gave an outline of veterans' welfare work being done by posts of the county and the state. He also told of the activities of the Legion posts in community betterment work. A talk was made by Margaret Kaeding, of Glendale, state first vice-president of the American Legion auxiliary, on welfare work that could be undertaken by the posts. Legion officials introduced included Charles Van Wyck, of Santa Ana, vice-commander of the 21st district; H. J. Caldwell, of Ontario, commander of the 21st district; Charles Nice, of El Centro, commander of the fifth area, and Leon Gillilian, of Placentia, commander of the Orange county council. Several selections were sung by the Santa Ana Legion Auxiliary Glee club under the direction of Mrs. Cecil Fross Willetta. Selections by the Fullerton Men's chorus of 40 voices also featured the evening. In an address given before the formal installation took place, Past Commander Phil Dodson told of the work being done for orphans cared for by Legion posts of the nation. He told what steps had been taken to put the American Legion endowment fund in workable shape so that the income from the fund could be used in state activities. California had been most generous in the establishment of this fund, Dolson said, having contributed $500,000 of the $5,000,000 raised in the nation. Officers were installed as follows: Anahiem Post—Commander, Joe Elliott; 1st vice-commander, Kenneth Peek; 2nd vice-commander, Roger Sherman; adjutant, Jack Hebson; chaplain, Morris Martenet, Jr.; sergeant-at-arms, Fred Hays.

The boys were welcomed by officers of the college and entertained by the college glee club and moving pictures. The 4-H Camp was set in the middle of the campus, in regular army style; a square of tents with headquarters in the center. The Orange county delegation was located on the east side of the square and assigned to Batalion No. 3. A thick layre of tsraw had been placed on the floor of the tents, and the beds were unrolled upon the straw for a good night's sleep. When the bugle sounded "Assembly," the boys "fell in" in true army style and marched to the mess hall in column or twos, armed with knives, forks and spoons. The mess hall was the old agricultural engineering laboratory where suitable long tables, with benches, adequately spiked down, were provided. Hot chocolate, mush, scrambled eggs and other proper foods were placed on paper plates for the boys as they filed by the serving tables. The bugle once more sounded assembled and the boys fell in as before for hour of inspection of the farm. The method of instruction and experiments in irrigation were first explained by one of the professors and then the experiments themselves were inspected. At the hog barns, the best method of removing the wolf teeth and of "ringing" to prevent rooting were demonstrated. The effect of lack of sunshine in producing rickets was seen, and the animals being prepared for the Portland Oregon show were given the "once over." In the same way, the work and animals in the sheep, fat cattle, dairy cattle, light horses, draft horses and poultry departments were observed; the professors explaining the purposes and types of the breeds and some of the experimental work being conducted with them, and how they are used for student instruction. At eleven o'clock, the boys were permitted to go swimming in the outdoor pool which serves at times as a disciplinary tub for unruly freshmen. The Orange county lads won all the boys' swimming events. After a fine lunch served as before and a two-hour lecture upon a chosen topic games were played on the athletic field ending with a sack race and a hoop race. Battalion No. 3 won both these events. The remainder of the afternoon was spent watching the football game between the Aggie Freshmen and Preston Junior College. Unfortunately for the Aggies, the score was 0-0. After supper, the group convened in the assembly where the program featured a talk by Bob Ralston's old classmate, the Dean of Men at the University of California, upon the value of an education and urging the 4-H members to come to Davis or Berkeley to prepare for their life's work. The college glee club, "alfafla quartet," movies etc., provided an enjoyable evening which was concluded by taps at 9:30 p.m. Even the leaders were glad to "hit hay" after such a strenuous A.

Doctors say that there are dangerous drugs in many medicines sold to the ladies for "reducing" purposes. So you see there are some things which are worse than a corn-fed appearance, in fact a great many things. After supper, the group convened in the assembly where the program featured a talk by Bob Ralston's old classmate, the Dean of Men at the University of California, upon the value of an education and urging the 4-H members to come to Davis or Berkeley to prepare for their life's work. The college glee club, "alfalfa quartet," movies etc., provided an enjoyable evening, which was concluded by taps at 9:30 p.m. Even the leaders were glad to "hit the hay" after such a strenuous day. Reveille sounded again at six in the morning and after setting-up exercises and breakfast, there followed three hours of demonstrations and lectures on Good Growth and Development, Fire Prevention, and the Care of Milk. At eleven o'clock a tug of war between "9000 pounds of boys vs. 9000 pounds of tractor" resulted in the tractor being hauled backwards to defeat. Following lunchcon, the convention disbanded and the Orange county delegation headed homeward. A stop was made to inspect the State Capitol Building in Sacramento, after which the basket lunches were opened for the evening meal en route, and the first halt was made for the night's repose at the Fair Grounds in Fresno.

Another Blast at Fullerton Council (Continued from Page One) stated that he voted in favor of granting the franchise because he thought the development of orchards on the hills would be an asset to the city of Fullerton. That would be true if those orchards could be developed without depriving the city of Fullerton of necessary domestic water, and without depriving orchards already developed in the city of Fullerton of water which they badly need. When these gentlemen thoroughly realize the serious consequences that must follow the carrying out of the plan to grant that franchise, they surely will hasten to pass a resolution rescinding their former action, and stop the publication of the notice of sale of the franchise. HALLOWE'EN BRIDGE LUNCHEON The Hallowe'en bridge luncheon given by Anaheim Ebell club on Monday afternoon at the beautiful new home of Supervisor and Mrs. Wm. Schumacher which was kindly offered for the occasion, was one of the most delightful social affairs ever given by this popular organization. More than 135 were present and the affair was both socially and financially a huge success. The house was beautifully decorated throughout, bright autumnal blossoms being interspersed with black cats, hobgoblins, witches and other symbols of the mystic eve. A delicious two-course luncheon was served at noon and in the afternoon a game of bridge was played. Five prizes were awarded, Mrs. John Wilson being awarded first; Mrs. Joe Carroll, second; Miss a Frances Hacks, third; Mrs. W. E. Alexander, fourth, and Mrs. Louis Danz, the consolation. The committee having charge of the affair was composed of the following ladies: Mrs. Joe Wagner, chairman; Mrs. C. E. Harbeson, Mrs. Leonard Evans, Mrs. David Moraris, Mrs. H. E. W. Barnes, Mrs. Robt. Hamlin, Mrs. E. E. Bruce, Mrs. C. C. Sidman, Mrs. Harry Sears, Mrs. Herman Jobst, Mrs. W. Sanford and Mrs. Wm. Schumacher.

At $675 — Characteristic Chrysler power, speed and pick-up, plus the quiet and smoothness of far costlier cars. At $675 — Safety of internal-expanding hydraulic 4-wheel brakes, positive in any weather—the only car at its price with such equipment. At $675 — New and distinctive style which has obsoleted all earlier standards. At $675 — the full adult-size of $2000 cars, and luxury of fitment other cars in this field cannot afford. It is no wonder that the millions who count the cost of motoring are using the Plymouth, to its very evident advantage, as the measuring stick of dollar-for-dollar value in the lowest-priced field. CHRYSLER Plymouth prizes were awarded, Mrs. John Wilson being awarded first; Mrs. Joe Curroll, second; Miss Frances Hacks, third; Mrs. W. E. Alexander, fourth, and Mrs. Louis Danz, the consolation.
