Never has the theatre-going public seemed so eager to see and to hear and to apprise the ultra-modern achievement promised by America's foremost motion picture star in her newest film. Mary Pickford, so long a silent heroine on the screen, has her premiere in the all-dialogue "Coquette," at the Fox California theatre, beginning next Monday and running till Thursday—with a bargain matinee on Wednesday at 2:30. In this production "America's Sweet-heart" offers a triply radical advance in her art. She speaks her lines. She plays a witching contemporary flapper role with alluring bobbed hair. She plays an up-to-date Broadway drama in which a great social ordeal vies with the traditional Pickford sweetness and light, and in which significant heart-wrenching realism tests the very soul of the Pickford genius. With her adaptation of the Broadway stage success, "Coquette," as her current vehicle, Mary Pickford signalizes the first entry of an ace film celebrity into the new field of the all-spoken celluloid entertainment. Equiped for this pioneering by talent already demonstrated in a long career of "silent screen" triumphs, and by her early experience on the spoken stage, the star is said to bring with her the gift of the perfect voice for theatre amplification. This is announced as the verdict of all critics favored with a formal preview and preaudition of the picture. It is a final URGED TO REGISTER One of the first matters to consider in connection with the $16,500,000 flood bond election of June 25 is the necessity for "getting out the vote," and one of the essentials of that task is to first qualify the vote, so Orange county voters today were urged to see that they are properly registered. Registrations for the bond election will close on May 25 under the statutory requirement that a person voting at any election must have registered thirty days in advance of such election, in the precinct where his vote is cast, it is sited. Persons who have registered since January 1, 1928, are eligible to vote at the flood bond election unless the voter has moved to a new precinct since registering; it is said. However, if there has been a removal to a new precinct the voter must transfer his registration to such new precinct on or before May 25, in order to vote at the bond election. Transfer of registration can be made at the office of County Clerk J. M. Backs. There will be no consolidation of voting precincts at the election of June 25. It is announced. The full quota of 174 polling places will be established, as usual, to avoid any confusion among the voters. Instead of the usual personnel of six members for election boards, all such boards will be composed of only four members, the county superviseors have decided, as an economy measure. Our idea of a real optimist is Marian Talley, prima donna who announces that she has retired from the stage and bought a farm, and will live on its earnings.

Planning high-speed business More than 95% of the telephone calls from one town to another in the Bell System are on a high-speed basis. The operator in many cases now asks you to hold the telephone while the call is put through. Out of town calls used to be handled by one operator taking your order and giving it to another group of operators to put through. You now give your call direct to the operators who put it through—and put it through fast while you are on the line. A high-speed service to all parts of the country—calls from one town to another as swift, clear and easy as local calls—that is the aim of the Bell System.

SUNKIST IX years ago — in 1893 the cooperative marketing first introduced to the cost of all Exchange services, including advertising and other services not provided by other agencies, is less than the marketing cost alone of any other organization. And they prove, also, that the public and trade willingly pay a premium for the greater dependability, standardization and reputation of Exchange fruit. These advantages, which Exchange members always enjoy, can be increased still more as the Exchange handles a greater proportion of the California crop. Larger membership means greater co-ordination of the state's crop shipments, less "outside" fruit to upset market plans, and further economies through spreading costs over larger volume. For your own profit—and the whole industry's—join with the 11,500 growers of the Exchange, in the organization that has become the model for cooperative marketing systems throughout the world. Talk to the manager of your nearest District Exchange or Exchange Association, or address Growers Service Bureau, California Fruit Growers Exchange, Box 530, Station "C," Los Angeles, California, for further information.
