Anaheim is out of the electrical generating business. For a consideration of $10,000 in cash, and another $5,000 to be secured by release of posted money with the state railway commission, the city council by unanimous vote Tuesday night authorized the signing of a ten-year contract with the Southern California Edison company, whereby the latter takes over legal responsibility for payment of the gas engine and other equipment. Option of the C. & G. Cooper company to take back the engine within 60 days still holds; the engine, unless turned back, will remain where it is, but will not be used except in case of complete breakdown of the Edison company distributing units. Transfer of the generating plant to the Edison company, however, doesn't affect the municipal distributing system, which still remains in control of the city. Advisability of selling the power plant to the Edison company arises when indications pointed to the state railway commission granting a rate so high for current that operation of the plant would be carried in at a loss. The higher rate was justified on argument on extra stand-by expense to care for current in case of breakdown of the city system. The plant up to April I had shown no profit, and thus demanded action since it was installed under provision that it would be continued if a profit were shown, and the $27,500 for engine and equipment would be paid during a ten-year period in case of profit. Fred Koesel, counselman, in commenting on the disposal of the plant to the Edison company stated that the city would realize a profit on the deal.

Ubolda Caro was sentenced Saturday by Judge Morrison to serve one year on the chain gang on the charge of non-support of his wife and mother. His wages of $1.50 per day will be paid to the family. Lars Hansen manager of the Alpha Bee store at Emily and Center streets, and Mrs. Hansen, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday of this week enjoyed a vacation spent in motoring to various Southern California cities visiting friends and relatives. Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Fearn, of the Fearn Radio Shop at 113 South Los Angeles street, and their mothers, Mrs. Baccala and Mrs. Shaffer, both of Anaheim, motored to Victorville on Mothers' day where they explored wild flower regions of the desert. They counted 14 different kinds of flowers, and brought memories of brilliantly colored hillsides, fresh with floral blossoms, back with them. Community showmanship, now that the tenth annual California Valencia Orange Show is just one week away, becomes an individual problem for every resident in northern Orange county. Of course, we'll wash the community face and hands, put on the community's Sunday clothes, and put its best foot forward. But that is only the outward appearances. The thing that puts anything across is individual and collective spirit. The "IT" of a mammoth exhibit is the active interest of every resident of northern Orange county. Every business firm, every citizen, in fact, of the northern section of this county, particularly Anaheim whether he knows it or not, is vitally interested in the success of the orange exhibit. The show alone, with its gigantic attractions and lavish decorations, justifies an active interest from a purely entertainment standpoint. But back of good showmanship is spirit which wins the good will of tens of thousands of visitors who advertise Orange county to the rest of the world. On the surface, perhaps, this doesn't bring anything but good will. Glancing underneath the surface, however, we find that the show serves a three-fold purpose: Entertains, Educates, advertisises. For entertainment the mammoth show combines the best features of the old three-ring circus an dthe catalog. Human interest that always attends a crowd is present in ever-varying form; while the list of exhibits is so large that it includes practically everything needed in the production of the major crop of Orange county — certainly enough to satisfy a taste for diversity. One trip through the show is hardly enough to acquire the full amount of information available. Indeed, one easily could wander through the big tent, like a book-lover meanders through a library, and pick up an unlimited amount of theory as well as practical knowledge. But the greatest benefit comes from the spirit of the Orange show as interpreted by local residents to the tens of thousands of visitors. Traditional hospitality of Californians, given an occasion of this sort, wins for this county the respect and lasting interest of most of the exhibit visitors. Herein lies the real value. Genial General Manager George Reid understands the psychology of showmanship in connection with the Orange show. That's why Southern California, the mecca of tourists, has been "plastered" with appropriate advertising, and human interest stories and pictures of the show "planted" in newspapers throughout the world. The preliminady advertising northern Orange county gets from this exhibit alone is worth from a financial viewpoint every effort put forth by local citizens. On this basis, the additional interest and good will created by the show itself are the fruits toward which all must come.
