CALIFORNIA'S VOTE The largest vote ever polled in California was recorded at the recent presidential election. One of the important factors in getting Californians to realize their responsibility and exercise their franchise to such a remarkable degree must be recognized as the California press. Behind the movement of the Get-Out-the-Vote leagues and organizations of the state were actively at work the editors and publishers of member newspapers of the California Newspaper association. Cartoons, editorials, news stories and promotional publicity material on the importance of every citizen of California casting his or her vote at this election were cleared to these 190 newspapers through their own Publicity Control Bureau of their business association. Local organizations of leading citizens, state-wide associations of professional and business men and women, and the California Newspaper Publishers' association all may view with pride the results of their efforts—the largest vote ever polled in California.

Telephone 799 420 South Los Angeles Street Anaheim THE FINE CAR OF LOW PRICE MEXICAN JUSTICE Mexico may give short shift to some of its revolutionaries; but the trial of Toral, the assassin of Obregon, indicates that there is still some restraint in that unhappy country which has been distraught by revolution and insurrection. When we recall how quickly we disposed of the assassin of President McKinley, who like Toral was also a misguided zealot, the civilization of Mexico is not so brutal and summary after all. Here was an instance where the idol of a people was struck down at the moment of his great triumph. The natural instinct was to tear the murderer pieces on the spot. But he was rescued from the mob, has been in prison for many months, and was tried with all the safeguards and all the rights which we, here in this country, extend to the man who is supposed to be innocent until he is legally pronounced guilty by a jury of his peers. This is a good sign. It marks great progress in orderly and restrained government. It would hardly have been expected two years ago when we were all thinking of Mexico as the land of bandits and bloody revolutions. We wonder how much of it may be due to the excellent spirit of our ambassador who took a troubled situation and in a few short months changed the whole atmosphere of that situation from suspicion and distrust to a radical reversal of the traditional relations which made the United States and Mexico jealous neighbors for the last one hundred years. Let us hope that the Rio Grande on the south, like the St. Lawrence on the north, will soon mark the bounds between two peace loving peoples. "500" Club Meets Mrs. Fred Backs entertained the "500" club at her home on North Philadelphia street on Wednesday. A delightful 10 o'clock luncheon was enjoyed after which the ladies varied the program by playing bridge during the afternoon instead of the usual game of "500." Mrs. Ernest Borchert won the first prize and Mrs. D. Singleton the second. Mrs. Emma Heide and her son, Laurence Heide, motored down to San Diego on Saturday, where they spent Armistice Day with relatives and friends. They returned home on Monday evening. Bishop John J. Cantwell will officiate at the dedication of the novitiate of St. Joseph's Academy on Sunday, November 18th, at 11 o'clock. The ceremonies will be interesting and impressive. Request Sportsmen To Report Banded Wild Fowl Killed As a means of obtaining precise information relative to North American wild fowl, the Bureau of Biological Survey of the United States Department of Agriculture, with the aid of volunteer co-operators throughout the country, is engaged in banding large numbers of birds. The bands are made of aluminum or copper, and in addition to a serial number they carry the legend "Notify Biological Survey, Washington, D.C." Sportsmen are requested by the Department of Agriculture to aid in these investigations by reporting to it all mended birds that come to their attention. In addition to the number that is on the band attached to the bird's leg, the date and place of capture should be given. In reply the department will supply the banding record to the person rendering the report. At the opening of the 1928 hunting season, between 15 and 20 stations were in operation for the banding of these birds, while at many others birds have been banded in large numbers in Freak Tornado Damages Orana Twister Destroys $7000 Worth of Property Wednesday A freak twister, born of the storm clouds which hung heavily over Orange county Wednesday struck Orana shortly after 10 o'clock Wednesday morning, tore down several buildings, slightly injured one person and caused a damage which was estimated at approximately $7000. Several merchants in fruit stands and barbecue stands along North Main street, a few feet south of the West Chapman street intersection, escaped possible injury by leaving their buildings when they saw the twister coming, they reported. Lloyd Hollister, employee of the Orana garage, was struck on the head by an iron bar that came sailing into the doorway of the garage while he was attempting to shut the door. He was not badly hurt. The most serious damage was done to the Orana garage, owned by L. E. Smith, and to the Orana Produce company, located on North Main street. The produce company, a building 150 feet long, was blown all the way down, while its employees were standing in the street, having seen the twister coming and ran from under cover. Produce, canned goods, and bottles of vinegar and other liquids were demolished by the collapse of the building and the heaviest damage will probably be felt by the produce company. The entire front of the Orana garage was blown away out into the street. Part of the tin roofing was taken off and one corner of the building laid open. Water, falling in sheets at the time, partly filled the doorway. The plate glass window at the office was broken and papers were water soaked. Numerous sign boards which dot the intersection were blown down and part of the roofing on the Orana theater was blown off. "I saw the thing coming," said Holliser. It looked like a lot of leaves in the sky. I thought I had better hurry. Constitution A Durable California's referred to as a dumping ground undergoes a complete sale adoption in cent election in the 51-year-old ment is under. Since its ad has been amended to itself basic law of the ground for new A bill will be legislature that stitutional constitution, rightfully before and clarifying eral. Just because ties has not left and the voters isolate plenty venues January crime will be of legislation session. And three and seven have paved their important legs. American to 000,000 during course another perity is mere. Sportsmen are requested by the Department of Agriculture to aid in these investigations by reporting to it all mandated birds that come to their attention. In addition to the number that is on the band attached to the bird's leg, the date and place of capture should be given. In reply the department will supply the banding record to the person rendering the report. At the opening of the 1928 hunting season, between 15 and 20 stations were in operation for the banding of these birds, while at many others birds have been banded in large numbers in previous seasons. These stations extend from Maine and South Carolina on the Atlantic Coast, to Washington, Oregon, and California in the West, with others in the Canadian Provinces and in Alaska. More than 30,000 ducks and geese have been banded, and valuable information already has been received from the reports sent in by hunters. Sportsmen, accordingly, are urged to examine the ducks and other wild fowl they kill and report every band obtained. The following records from the banding files of the Biological Survey will illustrate the character of the information that is being accumulated: A mallard branded at Leduc, Alberta, on October 23, 1926, was killed at Robertson Lake, Texas, on November 27, 1926. Two mallards banded at Browning, Ill., in November, 1922, were killed; one near Sacramento, Calif., in December, 1923, and the other in Glascock county, Georgia, in November, 1924. Another mallard banded in January, 1923, at Cuivre Island, Mo., was killed in June of the same year at Willow Lake, Mackenzie. A baldpate, or widgeon, banded in August, at Davidson, Saskatchewan, was killed near Houston, Tex., in December of the same year. A green-winged teal banded at Avery Island, La., in December, 1923, at Lethbridge, Alberta, and three others banded at the same time and place were recovered in the fall of 1923 and in 1924 from points in the Sacramento Valley, Calif. Another of these little ducks, banded on the Bear River marshes, Great Salt Lake, Utah, in July, 1926, was killed in November of the same year in the State of Sinaloa, Mexico. The problems studied by this method of research chiefly relate to the mysterious migrations of birds. New and pertinent facts are continually being brought to light through an intensive application of the banding method, and it is to aid these investigations that sportsmen are asked to co-operate by reporting all banded wild ducks and other species killed during the season. Tips to Motorists or That Car of Yours Give the top of your car a coat of dressing once in a while. Top dressing will preserve the material, prevent leaks and cracking, and make the car look better. Before starting on a long tour, check your motor for carbon and have it felt by the produce company. The entire front of the Orana garage was blown away out into the street. Part of the tin roofing was taken off and one corner of the building laid open. Water, falling in sheets at the time, partly filled the doorway. The plate glass window at the office was broken and papers were water soaked. Numerous sign boards which dot the intersection were blown down and part of the roofing on the Orana theater was blown off. "I saw the thing coming," said Hollister. It looked like a lot of leaves in the sky. I thought I had better hurry and shut the doors of the garage and I was doing that when it struck. Don’t Pick the Flowers Motorists are now being warned as the season for touring on the desert is at hand to avoid picking desert plants or flowers unlawfully, since practically all of the counties with desert areas have regulations against removal or destruction of certain plants. In some counties the mutilation, destruction or digging up of mountain dogwood, smoke tree, indigo bush, lemon lily, desert lily, western azalea and yucca growing on private or public lands is strictly prohibited without permit issued by the board of supervisors, except in the case of private land when the owner has given his consent there to writing. It is also unlawful to pick or destroy the blossoms from any of these plants. A federal regulation prohibits bringing into the United States from foreign countries any livestock plant without a special permit to be obtained in writing from the plant quarantine and control administration. United States Department of Agriculture, Washington, D.C. Florida Officials Visit Orange County Dr. Wilmon Newell Plant Commissioner of Florida and A. P. Camp Hordeulturist of the University of Florida spent a day recently looking over several horticultural projects of Orange county. They were particularly interested in the avocado development and local methods of growing and packling fruit. They visited the extensive avocado plantings of the San Joaquinruit company, Irvine; the walnut dehydrator plant of the Irwin company; the Tustin packing plant o; the Southern California Persian Growers' association; and several windbreak plantings in the Tustin and Villa Park districts. The Florida visitors were guests of Farm Advisor H. E. Wahlberg, who was reciprocating similar attentions given him by these officials when in Florida two years ago. Mr. Newell estimates the Florida citrus crop to be 18,000,000 boxes; this information having been gathered since last storm. This includes 11,000,000 boxes of oranges and tangerines and 7,000,000 boxes of grapefruit, representing about 48,000 carloads. The 1927-28 movement from Florida wah 18.705 cars Tips to Motorists or That Car of Yours Give the top of your car a coat of dressing once in a while. Top dressing will preserve the material, prevent leaks and cracking, and make the car look better. Before starting on a long tour, check your motor for carbon and have it cleaned out if necessary. Having your valves properly seated and adjusted means economy of operation. Ignition trouble is the cause of a great percentage of stalling on the road. To prevent being stalled at the wrong time, have your ignition system checked regularly by a competent mechanic. Frequent dusting of the car means longer life to the paint and a big saving to the car owner. When rusty spots show up, sandpaper them until they are bright, then touch them up with paint. This preserves the life of the metal and improves the car's appearance. Do you realize that oil and grease separate and act as cushion between two metal moving parts? They are the major enemies of friction, and no moving parts of the car should be starved of oil or grease. When mounting a tire on the wheel, be sure the tire rim is drawn down even, for if this is not done the tire will not run true and will appear as if the wheel is at fault. Always make a final check on the lug bolts to see that they are drawn down tight. One out of every ten calls for emergency service of a tow car is because of cars getting stuck in mud, ditches or sand, it is estimated. While these come in the rainy season for the most part, they often can be avoided by careful driving. Beware of getting stuck in mud alongside your own driveway! Mr. Newell estimates the Florida citrus crop to be 18,000,000 boxes, this information having been gathered since the last storm. This includes 11,000,000 boxes of oranges and tangerines and 7,000,000 boxes of grapefruit, representing about 48,000 carloads. The 1927-28 movement from Florida wah 18,705 cars of oranges and 17,519 cars of grapefruit, or a total of 36,215 carloads of all citrus fruits. This can be compared with a total movement from Florida for the 1926-27 season of 25,708 cars of oranges and 18,071 cars of grapefruit, or a combined total of 43,779 cars. CHANGE THE CALENDAR Nearly 100 eminent Americans have pledged support to help the national committee on calendar simplification to determine whether public opinion in the United States favors the adoption of a new calendar. The time considered desirable for a new world conference on calendar reform is 1929, because the nearest convenient year, for putting a new calendar into effect in 1933, when January 1 falls on Sunday, and the interval between 1929 and 1933 would be needed to prepare for the change. The present calendar lacks fixity. It is said. Easter varies anywhere from March 22 to April 25, and the months are unequal. The 13-month-28-day plan would give each month the same number of work days, the same number of Saturdays and Sundays and the same number of whole weeks. The first day of the month would always begin on Sunday and the last day would always be Saturday the twenty-eighth. It is also proposed that, for the interest of industry and workers, irrespective of where the anniversary dates fall in the week, the new calendar would transfer present holidays to Monday, thus giving everybody generous "weekends." Constitution Only A Dumping Ground California's constitution, sometimes referred to as a patchwork quilt and a dumping ground for new laws, may undergo a complete revision after the 1929 legislature meets, reports from Sacramento indicated today. The wholesale adoption of amendments at the recent election has focused attention on the 51-year-old document and a movement is under way for redrafting it. Since its adoption, the constitution has been amended out of all resemblance to itself until it no longer is the basic law of the state but a dumping ground for new laws. A bill will be introduced at the next legislature that will provide for a constitutional convention to draft a new constitution, removing many laws that rightfully belong in the statute books and clarifying the constitution in general. Just because the election is over politics has not left the stage in California and the voters have given the next legislature plenty to work on when it convenes January 7. Water, taxes and crime will be the important subjects of legislation to be considered at this session. And by adopting measures three and seven on the ballot, voters have paved the way for some of this important legislation. American tourists will spend $900,-000,000 during the year 1928, which is of course another proof that our prosperity is merely mythical. SAINT MICHAEL'S CHURCH E. Adele and Emily Rev. Charles E.
