ON THE LOOKOUT in and about Anaheim with Lowell E. Jessen Pioneers of Orange county—the real builders of the valencia orange district—lived again the days of their youth at the picnic held at the city park last Saturday afternoon. History, at times, seems sort of dry and distant. But the history that these pioneers recalled in their group conversations and in short talks before the assemblage contained that spark of first-hand knowledge which brings to life the not too-distant past. Builders of this community and every other community of note in the county, talked over old friendships, problems of interest to all, and retold their pranks when, as youngsters, they feasted upon stolen oranges, and delighted in other perfectly human traits. Stealing of oranges is just one step removed—in the direction of California—from the boyhood forage on the water melon patch or apple orchard, traits which won national appeal ere this. And the courting of the young ladies in the days of our fathers and grandfathers, was just as ardent as now, when the highways at night are cluttered up with automobiles parked at a tantilizing distance from street lights. But the keynote of the whole gathering was not just a rehash of old problems, of boyhood jokes, of hard days spent on the farm. No, indeed. It was the meeting of friends who had not seen each other for from one to 50 years. This bringing together of sturdy folk to live again their youth and renew their friendships is one of the most worthwhile social movements ever fostered in Orange county. Looking forward While the fond grandparent was recalling a good time enjoyed last Saturday, his grandchild was preparing for one of the greatest events in his life—graduation. Inheriting the oak-like qualities of pioneers, a mind as agile and resourceful as good health and training can make it, and the fast-moving opportunities of today, the student stands on the brink of a life destined to be full of lightning-like developments. In the past decade we have seen the airplane develop from an unreliable contraption to one of the most dependable and safest modes of transportation; we have witnessed the perfection of the radio from a crude instrument to one capably reproducing music and the spoken word; we have seen a five-day journey across the Atlantic shrink to a 30-hour airplane jaunt; we have welcomed the talking picture, which two years ago succeeded the silent drama; and many other marvels of this age. The graduate, benefiting from faster communication and transportation, is better fitted than any before him for the life he is preparing to lead. To be successful, a life of service to the public is necessary—a challenge which undoubtedly will be met. So piloneer, newcomer and youth join in welcoming the graduate to our midst. Heard on the street "I understand the undertaker is dead. He didn't make a profit on that job." "No. He went in the hole." Strange as it may seem Boys, particularly those in their adolescent period, are quite reticent and often refuse to enter wholesheartedly in a game or on the stage where there may be a group of spectators. Girls aren't that way. They speak right out and delight in "acting up" for the fun of expression. Teachers, aware of this problem, have hit upon a solution.

Palm CASH and CARRY Strange as it may seem Boys, particularly those in their adolescent period, are quite reticent and often refuse to enter wholesheartedly in a game or on the stage where there may be a group of spectators. Girls aren't that way. They speak right out and delight in "acting up" for the fun of expression. Teachers, aware of this problem, have hit upon a solution. Paint the faces of the boys black, give them a little leeway in the matter of dialog, and the girls must hustle to save their theatrical reputation in the face of strenuous competition from the "darker" sex. Psychology of black paint, which gives them a mask to hide behind, works wonders. As a consequence, the ministeral show, at the grammar school and other educational institutions, is far from being as dead as the theatrical gate receipts might indicate. HEALTH WORK COSTS MONEY Preservation of Human Life Important Matter Before People of State Conservation of health, which has for its ultimate aim the preservation of human life, cost Orange county a total of $80,864 last year. No more important function can be found in county government, declared State Controller Ray L. Riley, who compiled a statement of county health expenditures this week. That California counties are giving increased attention to this problem is evidenced by the fact that the 58 counties spent a grand total of $14,522,618 for this purpose in 1929, Riley pointed out. "County health activities are of many kinds," said Riley, "depending upon the size and resources of the county." Some maintain their own bacteriological laboratories. Outbreaks of preventable diseases must be speedily investigated, food and drugs inspected, health centers developed and infant and child welfare conferences organized." One of the first questions asked by a prospective settler about the county he may choose for his home, is: "Is it a healthful place to live?" This question is being answered more in the affirmative than never before as counties enlarge their health conservation activities. One of the greatest developments of the decade is the county health work in battling tuberculosis. Provision for tuberculosis sanitariums or clinics, often carried on in cooperation with the state, has brought about a miraculous decrease in the number of deaths from this once dread disease. Los Angeles county, with its great population, made a total expenditure of $2,573,028 for health conservation last SMART OXFORDS $3.95 Why pay more when you can buy the Smartest Summer Oxford of the Best Quality Leather and Workmanship at $3.95.

Center St., Anaheim URade Trete Club Meets Miss Adeline Curtis entertained the Urade Trete Bridge Club on Tuesday evening at her apartments in the Angelina hotel, which were prettily decorated for the occasion. Bowls of red roses were used most effectively to accentuate the artistic floral arrangement. At the close of the game the hostess served a most delicable supper. Mrs. Sophie Stock won first prize for high score, Miss Adeline Curtis was second and Mrs. Isabelle Erskine received the consolation. There will be no meeting of the club during July and August, Miss Clem Backs will be hostess at the September meeting. Those present were: Mrs. Nellie E. Terry, Mrs. Sophie Stock, Mrs. Isabelle Erskine, Miss Clem Backs, Miss Leona Carmody, Miss Frances Backs, Miss Edith Erickson and the hostess Miss Adeline Curtis.

Dickel came over from Pasadena on Saturday to attend the Pioneer picnic at City Park where he met many old time friends who were very glad to see him.

He states that his son, Ted, and Dr. Bullard made a two weeks motor trip to Arizona visiting the Roosevelt and Coolidge reservoirs and viewing the site of the proposed Boulder Canyon Dam in the Colorado river. After having a very pleasant trip they became ill of ptomaine poisoning upon their return and were for a time very seriously indisposed, but are recovering. Harold Harris, for three months associated as manager of the industrial exhibits with Manager George Reld of the California Valencia Orange Show, left Anaheim Monday for Glendale where he will remain until a proffered job as secretary-of-a chamber of commerce in a prosperous beach city matures.
