It has been a great pleasure to serve this gifted gentleman, and he has been in this office regularly once a week for the publication of his church Bulletin to which he gave his earnest attention. Along with his congregation and the citizens generally of the community, the office will regret to part with him, and it hopes that his future will be cast in pleasant places. May the best of good fortune attend him and his good wife.
Diamond Jubilee of State Fair
By ROCKWELL D. HUNT
This is the Diamond Jubilee year for the State Fair of California. Sacramento, the Capital city, has been keenly alert to the significance of this event and has planned to provide for this seventy-fifth anniversary of the founding of the State Agricultural Society a grand setting that shall be both fitting and duly impressive. The classic is scheduled to begin August 31, and close on Admission Day, Sept. 9.
The State Fair has been for three quarters of a century closely identified with the development of California in agriculture, horticulture, stock raising, industry and commerce. The first fair was held in San Francisco in October, 1854, the exhibits being transported in freight wagons drawn by oxen or mules, and the cattle show being held at Mission Dolores.
State Allots the Fair $25,000
Los Angeles and Orange Counties Receive Largest Apportionment
The Orange County Fair will receive $25,000 from the $120,000 which the state legislature has allotted for premiums at county fairs during the next two years. Together with Los Angeles, it receives a larger apportionment than any other county.
Riverside county fair receives $20,000 and these three apportionments are special ones, made under an act of this year's legislature. All moneya allotted were based on premiums paid by the fairs for exhibits in 1928.
The amounts allotted follow:
Fresno District fair—$5,085, based on 1928 premiums of $15,381.
Glenn County fair—$228 on 1928 premiums, $647.50.
Humboldt County fair—$693, 1928 premiums $1,961.50.
Kern County—Fifteenth District Agricultural Association, $3,351, 1928 premiums $9,494.
Lassen County fair—$465, 1928 premiums $1,312.75.
Los Angeles county—$25,000 (special appropriation).
Madera County fair and Livestock Association, $468, 1928 premiums, $1327.
Mendocino County—and Anderson Valley Apple Show and—99, 1928 premiums $276.50.
Modoc County—Sunrise Valley Agricultural fair—$228, 1928 premiums, $644.50.
Orange County fair—$25 000 (special appropriation).
Riverside County fair—$20,000, special appropriation).
DEATH OF MRS. GREWCOCK
Mrs. Ellen Grewcock, a well known and greatly beloved resident of this city for a number of years, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Fred Zeppfeld, on Wednesday last. Mrs. Grewcock had been an invalid for several years. Deceased was aged 81 and
Miss Winfred Macrose and Mrs. Homer Ames entertained a few friends at Balboa on Wednesday at a 1 o'clock luncheon and cards in the afternoon. A very delicious lunchoon was served by the hostess, after which bridge was played. Mrs. Wm. Dolan won the first prize and Mrs. Ralph McFadden the booby.
Those present were: Mrs. Fred Backs, Mrs. Wm. Dolan, Mrs. Ralph McFadden, Mrs. D. Singleton, Mrs. J. A. Clayes, Mrs. F. A. Yungbluth, Mrs. C. E. Harbison, and Mrs. J. W. Wallop.
Los Angeles County Fair poultry show at Pomona, September 17 to 22, will be the largest this year west of the Rockies.
Sacramento was the scene of the second fair in 1855, by which date California had been definitely established as possessing great agricultural potentialities. The following year the fair was held at San Jose in 1857 at Stockton and in 1858 at Marysville. In 1859 it returned to Sacramento City. A spirited contest arose as to where the 1860 fair should be held, ending in an amendment to the constitution of the Agricultural Society, as follows: "The society shall hold an annual fair at the city of Sacramento"—thus settling permanently the question of location.
For many years Gen. John Bidwell of Rancho Chico was the leading patron of the State Fair, beginning to make extensive exhibits in the late fifties. He served as president of the State Agricultural Society and was frequently invited to give the annual address. Later on being convinced that betting on horse races and attendant evils had come to be the chief features of the fairs he refused to countenance them, withdrew his moral support and discontinued his extensive exhibits, thus wielding his powerful influence towards a restoration of the rightful emphasis of activities.
A contemplation of the numerous and diverse functions of the State Fair awakens real admiration for the minds conceiving them, and working devotely for the advancement of the commonwealth. It has long since become a real factor, a great clearinghouse, in the material and cultural development of all parts of the state. As a dignified agency of publicity, it has amply justified the heavy costs involved in its continued maintenance. "Just as great stores trim their windows and display the best they have," said Samuel I. Greene of the California Dairy Council, "so California on this occasion displays the best it produces so that the world may see it." It is California's great show window."
The great state buildings at Sacramento are now in readiness for the superlative exhibits that will come. The huge central structure, agricultural and manufacturers' pavilions and the new Machinery Hall are flanked with groups of smaller buildings, with long lines of stock barns, ideal mile race track and horse show amphitheatre, with an area of approximately 200 acres. The exhibits will include the finest specimens from the world-excelling agricultural production of the state and the very acme of various breeds of live stock. A single county raises 225 different varieties of fruits, grains and vegetables.
But this year is Diamond Jubilee
DEATH OF MRS. GREWCOCK
Mrs. Ellen Grewcock, a well known and greatly beloved resident of this city for a number of years, died at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Fred Zeppenfeld, on Wednesday last. Mrs. Grewcock had been an invalid for several years. Deceased was aged 81 and was a native of London, England. She came to this country in her youth and lived in New York state until coming to California twenty-one years ago with her husband, who passed away about six months ago.
She is survived by three daughters, Mrs. Fred Zeppenfeld, with whom she made her home, and Miss Esther Grewcock of this city, Mrs. W. W. Davis of Brea and one son, James Grewcock of Brea.
Rev. A. G. H. Bode of South Pasadena, formerly rector of St. Michael's Episcopal church, had charge of the funeral services, which were held in the chapel of Backs, Terry & Campbell mortuary at 2 o'clock on Friday afternoon. Interment was in Loma Vista cemetery. Pallbearers were Fred Backs, D.J. Donnelly, F.A.Yungbluth, Ralph McFadden, John Wallop, and Henry Luckenback.
Real Estate Exams.
Begin On Friday
Announcement has been made by Stephen Branson, real estate commissioner, that the examinations for real estate salesmen in accordance with the new real estate act, will commence in Los Angeles August 23 at 9:30 a.m., in the Transportation building.
The examination will be conducted on Tuesday and Friday mornings at that place until further notice. The examination fee of $3 in cash must be paid before persons are permitted to take the examination. A person failing may retake the examination without payment of further fee.
Examinations will be conducted throughout the fall, under the auspices of real estate boards throughout the state and by firms which employ large numbers of salesmen.
The examination probably will consist of questions on the real estate act as well as on ethics, practice and land economics, and the principles involved in real estate transactions.
Copies of the questions with full instructions and explanation may be secured upon application to the California Real Estate Association, 117 West Ninth street, Los Angeles.

mento are now in readiness to the superlative exhibits that will come. The huge central structure, agricultural and manufacturer's pavilions and the new Machinery Hall are flanked with groups of smaller buildings, with long lines of stock barns, ideal mile race track and horse show amphitheatre, with an area of approximately 200 acres. The exhibits will include the finest specimens from the world-excelling agricultural production of the state and the very acme of various breeds of live stock. A single county raises 225 different varieties of fruits, grains and vegetables.
But this year is Diamond Jubilee year. The directors are not content to make the fair merely representative of all sections of the state but have decided to include the group of Pacific states Accordingly, states have been invited to prepare exhibits and thus magnify the jubilee event to dimensions of a "super-Tiffany." "We shall have a fair," said Governor Young, "that sets aside state boundaries and includes the entire west. It will be a mighty thing for the spirit of fellowship that it will build up." It is anticipated that the attendance will run close to a half million.
The California State Fair has become a great educational factor, for it reveals in attractive manner tangible evidences of advancement in one of the world's most favored localities. It is a huge mirror reflecting the successful endeavors of the fruitful year, affording free interchange of ideas and suggesting new ideas for the continuous upbuilding of a better and nobler California. The jubilee exposition of 1929 will represent the marvelous results and achievements of three-quarters of a century in our loved commonwealth. It is worthy of whole-hearted support.
In Hollywood the other day a half-nude woman rode a horse in a movie. It will likely create a lot of interest, as there are many people who have not seen a horse in a long time.
Now the Chicago butchers are serving pork chops and T-bone steaks done up in waxed paper. This is going to be a little tough on the curious housewife who likes to smell 'em before she buys directly adjoining the grounds.
Local Couple Again Together
The case against Harold Willis, 26, charged with contributing to the delinquency of a minor, was dismissed in the court of Judge Eldon Stark late last week. Willis was brought to Orange county from Oakland by Deputy Sheriff A. L. Steward this week following a complaint of the parents of a 16-year-old girl of Anaheim, to whom he was married.
Upon a motion of Deputy District Attorney Leo J. Friis to dismiss the charge against Willis in the furtherance of justice, Judge Stark dismissed the case. The girl, who had been in charge of juvenile authorities, joined her husband, and the young people went on their way rejoicing.
JULIA DIEHL ESTATE VALUED AT $40,000
An estate valued at approximately $40,000 was left by the late Julia A. Diehl of Anaheim, who died August 16, at Rock Island, Illinois, according to a petition for letters of administration filed by Charles D. Brown, public administrator of Orange county.
The deceased woman left no heirs in Orange county, but is survived by brothers and sisters in the east. Brown said. The annual income from the property amounts to about $3,000.
A study in logic these hot days is to be found in the stockingless fad combined with the fur neck-piece.
It's not the thought of leaving footprints on the sands of time that worries many of our citizens. It's the thought of leaving fingerprints.
Orange County Fair Great Show
Directors Assert It Is Everything a Fair Should Be
"Everything that a fair should be" is the verdict the board of directors have passed upon the Orange County Fair, after a last minute scrutiny of all the plans and program.
Twenty-four departments, each with its own separate exhibit promising a record number of entries, will mark this fair.
Educational in its aim, beautiful in its displays, and lavish in its entertainment this year's fair promises indeed to be "everything that a fair should be."
Beauty—great masses of flowers, rare beautiful birds, feature exhibits, each with an artistry all its own, graceful decorations, brilliance of the many thousand lights, all mingle in a scene of charm.
Animal life—the management of the livestock department is becoming satisfied with its result of its strenuous effort. Lovers of good horses, cattle, hogs, or sheep will be pleased at the showing. The pigeon, poultry and rabbit exhibits through attractive premiums have drawn the best of each variety, while the dog show, with more than three hundred entries already, is an assured success.
The women's department will contain exhibits of domestic art and needle work, culinary, history and antiques, and creative art. The fine arts (professional) will show special selections, the work of Laguna Beach artists, and the non-professional is giving opportunity to many young people to display the creations of their genius.
Entertainment in plenty. First of all the free program on the stage between the tents. Then the Indian village, the trained animal show, the mid-way carnival, and in the arena, horse shows, drum corps contests, rodeos and funny clowns here, there and everywhere.
The above are the reasons declare the managers of the fair why they believe so sincerely that the crowds will be bigger and likewise better pleased than at any of the twelve Orange County Fairs that have gone before.
