The Test Tubes of Science Set Our Washing Formula
The laundry industry has invested a fortune to secure a foundation of facts—definite, dependable facts that help us to turn out a better bundle for you this week than we did last. And the next week—and the next, we'll do an even better job.
For that's the spirit of the laundry industry. Nothing this side of Perfection is quite good enough to satisfy us.
The American Institute of Laundering, at Joliet, Illinois, is a great proving ground where these facts are developed. Supported by the modern laundries of the continent, this Institute, owned and managed by the Laundryowners' National Association of the United States and Canada, is dedicated to the job of finding better ways to do every laundry operation. There's no place here for guess or gamble; for

Christmas Seals Are Being Mailed
Everybody Solicited to Join in Crusade Against Tuberculosis
Your ship will come in this week's mail. Perhaps today or tomorrow. That is the announcement given out at the Orange County Tuberculosis Association headquarters where volunteer workers have for weeks been checking over files, folding and putting sheet upon sheet of Christmas Seals, bearing the ensigns of the 1928 health ship, into properly addressed envelopes.
The gigantic task of getting 35,000 Christmas Seal letters into the mall is done, according to Mrs. Amelia Meagher.
open Tuesday after being closed almost a week.
Dr. George Parrish, director of health in the city of Los Angeles, issued a list of instructions designed to aid in combating the epidemic here.
The list said that children symptoms of coughs, cold or fever must be kept from schoolrooms and those employed in handling of food must remain away from work until recovery if they show symptoms of illness.
In cases where orders of the health department are not compiled with, the department will placard and enforce full quarantine. Dr. Parrish said.
Dr. Parrish said that, if citizens continued to fail to isolate themselves when stricken with influenza, arrests would follow.
Observers pointed out that the health bureau figures did not in any way show the widespread illness.
The influenza apparently is of a more or less mild form and hundreds of sick are doctoring themselves. Only the more serious cases have been reported.
It was believed that the epidemic possibly had affected one-tenth of the population of the city.
The Duke of Gloucester, according to press dispatches, has just bagged his first antelope. And we have just succeeded in getting rid of the last cantaloupe.

Many Witness the Eclipse of the Moon
Many Anaheim people kept late hours Monday night, or rather Tuesday morning to see the eclipse of the moon, and fortunately the sky was clear and they had an uninterrupted view of the spectacle. The fact that the orb was directly overhead made gazing at it rather uncomfortable and there were many sore necks the next day.
The earth's shadow started across the face of the moon at 11:24 p.m., and the disc was completely covered at 12:33 a.m. Then for 56 minutes the moon's rays were obliterated. Totality ended at 1:29 a.m., and the moon was again itself, shining brightly at 2:39 a.m.
In order to stage the phenomenon, the sky used a stage which is approximately 239,000 miles long, and the earth, one of the principal characters in the show, was forced to stretch its shadow something like a million miles in order to darken the moon. The earth's shadow, which is approximately 5700 miles in diameter by the time it reached the moon, took 56 minutes to cross the entire face of the planet, which is 2160 miles wide.
Another reason for staying up half the night to witness the spectacle was the announcement by scientists, who should know what they are talking about, that such a show will not take place again until April 13, 1930.
Many Changes in Registration Fees
Only Commercial Cars Affected By Wagy Bill
With the opening of the 1929 automobile renewal license season less than a month away, the Division of Motor Vehicles has directed the attention of Californians owning motor vehicles used for commercial purposes to the fact that Proposition No. 8, known as the Wagy bill, approved by the voters at the recent general election, will make your ship will come in this week's mail. Perhaps today or to borrow. That is the announcement given out at the Orange County Tuberculosis Association headquarters where volunteer workers have for weeks been checking over files, folding and putting sheet upon sheet of Christmas Seals, bearing the ensignia of the 1928 health ship, into properly addressed envelopes.
The gigantic task of getting 35,000 Christmas Seal letters into the mail is done, according to Mrs. Amelia Meagher, executive secretary of the association. Now comes the awaiting of the generous response of the people of Orange county to the silent appeal made for funds that will keep in operation the Open-Air School in Santiago Canyon, where 29 little children are now fighting their way back to health.
H. A. Lake, who this year has accepted the presidency of the Orange County Tuberculosis association, makes the statement:
"Fighting tuberculosis is a straight business proposition. The disease is preventable. It causes a huge economic loss. Let's stamp it out. It can be done!
"We have up in Santiago Canyon an Open-Air school with some $20,000 worth of equipment. Children, not active cases of tuberculosis but on the borderline, are herein a very short time put back on their feet and given a chance to live out their allotted years."
"Money contributed to the Christmas Seal Sale is not an obligation, but an opportunity both for sound investment and the participation in the greatest of all humanitarian work."
A news story about twenty-nine little children trapped in a disaster and facing almost certain death, would arouse the impulse of every man, woman and child of this community to put forth near super-human effort and make heroic sacrifices to effect their rescue.
Who would not gladly send two dollars or more to relief fund, if just some of those precious little lives could be saved?
A similar appeal comes to you in today's mail with the receipt of your annual Christmas Seal letter.
There are 29 little children at the Open-Air school in Santiago Canyon fighting their way back to health. On your generous response depends the year-round work of giving these children, and others whom physicians must continue to send to the camp, their chance for life.
Every Christmas Seal bought and used in Orange county means added roses in wane little cheeks, added strength to fight a winning battle against tuberculosis, which scientists agree is preventable.
Can we fall these little ones in our midst when it takes so little to launch a rescue expedition that means the certain saving of little lives?

Only Commercial Cars Affected By Wagy Bill
With the opening of the 1929 automobile renewal license season less than a month away, the Division of Motor Vehicles has directed the attention of Californians owning motor vehicles used for commercial purposes to the fact that Proposition No. 8, known as the Wagy bill, approved by the voters at the recent general election, will make numerous changes in the registration fees required to operate commercial vehicles.
Owners of such vehicles were urged to remember that these new fees will be effective during the coming renewal season and to govern themselves accordingly in remitting fees by mail after December 1st.
The Wagy bill makes no change, however, in the fee for ordinary passenger cars this remaining $3 as before.
It will relieve hundreds of farmers who use light trucks for hauling produce to market from payment of commercial fees inasmuch as it exempts all vehicles weighing up to 3000 pounds unladen from payment of more than the regular registration fee of $3.
Division officials say this will dispose of the troublesome question of "box back" and vehicles used only occasionally for commercial purposes.
On the other hand, the bill provides for a sharp revision upward in the fees of heavy trucks, the theory being that those responsible for the bulk of the wear and tear on the highways should pay the bill.
Consideration is also given in the bill of the fact that the number of wheels on a commercial vehicle have a direct bearing on the amount of damage such a vehicle can do to the highways and the fees are regulated accordingly.
The old schedules made no distinction between trucks having four or six wheels.
Vehicles under 3000 pounds pay only the regular fee of $3 regardless of tire equipment.
The Division announces that the following schedules will prevail for com-

Can we fall these little ones in our midst when it takes so little to launch a rescue expedition that means the certain saving of little lives?
Visit the Open-Air school in Santigao Canyon and see first hand the wonderful work that is being carried on under the auspices of the Orange County Tuberculosis association. You will need no further appeal to your heart or purse strings.

Epidemic of Flu Sweeping Southland
Many Schools Closing to Prevent Its Spread
An epidemic of influenza sweeping Southland cities has caused more than a score of deaths to date.
The condition is most serious in Los Angeles and Hollywood where 14 deaths have occurred. More than 1400 cases have been reported to the health department and possibly as many more have not been recorded.
Two prominent motion picture figures have died of the disease and many others have been forced to drop work.
The deaths of E. J. Connelly, etage and screen veteran, and Mrs. Sadye L. Miller, mother of Patsy, Ruth Miller, were attributed to influenza.
Monrovia grade and high schools were closed because a large percentage of students and faculty were suffering from the disease.
Garden Grove, La Habra, Fullerton and Placentia schools have been closed in Orange county. The county health department said 125 new cases were reported Monday.
The epidemic apparently has passed Claremont, where Pomona college was
Much Objection to Waste Water Pipe
Reconsideration of a franchise granted to the Santa Fe Springs Waste Water Disposal company for a pipe line through Orange county, a question which was subjected to much heated objection from residents in the western part of the county, is under way by the board of supervisors.
When the ordinance came up for final action the board referred the matter to the district attorney's office and stated that it would not agree to a franchise for the company to lay a pipe line along Orangethorpe avenue, which was designed for later construction as a subsidiary to the main line. Although representatives of the company declared that this line was included in plans and maps originally presented to the board, that body was positive that it had no knowledge of this line when it decided to grant the franchise.
H. C. Ferry, vice-president of the company, and L. H. Young, also representing the concern, pointed out that immediate construction of the line on Orangethorpe avenue was not contemplated. They stated that it would leave he way open for construction later when it might be desired to hook up with the Orange county sewer. They agreed to the elimination of the line in the ordinance, however.

The new Plymouth literally upsets all earlier expectations of what your dollar should buy for you in the lowest-priced field.
—With What You Get In Any Other Car In The Lowest-Priced Group
The new Plymouth literally upsets all earlier expectations of what your dollar should buy for you in the lowest-priced field.
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.
