H. R. Fox Returns From Visit North
After watching the assembly of a bantam car to be produced by Durant Motor company, H. R. Fox, local distributor for the firm, returned to Anaheim Monday evening enthused about the little machine, which will be the second car in the extremely small-car field.
Mr. Fox on Thursday motored up the coast route to San Francisco, visiting friends and attending to business. He then went to Oakland to the Durant assembly plant, and thence to Petaluma and back by the inland route.
TIME
We have almost reached the point where the work of the world can be done in half of the time that it took twenty years ago. The shortening of the hours of the working day in industry has only just begun, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. The eight-hour day is general in many industries, but in some sections the ten-hour day still prevails.
It is the belief of those who have studied the subject closely that a universal seven-hour day would give everybody work all the time, except for a reasonable vacation period, and would not slow up production below the demand for finished products, in any line. The difficulty is to get competing industrial establishments to agree to the change. Such difficulties are not insuperable, however. Twenty years ago nobody would have believed that it would be possible to get all of the department stores in New York to agree to close all day Saturday in Summer, but it has been brought about.
BUILDINGS
The newest thing in building construction is the "hung" building. Instead of a foundation as big as the building, with posts at the four corners, the building is hung from a single steel pole set in concrete and resting at its lower end on bedrock.
Two such "hung" buildings have been constructed in New York. The center pole is in the middle of the building, and all of the steel floor beams are suspended from it and braced against sagging. The outside of the building is merely a shell of brick or terra-cotta to keep out the weather and

The newest thing in building construction is the "hung" building. Instead of a foundation as big as the building, with posts at the four corners, the building is hung from a single steel pole set in concrete and resting at its lower end on bedrock.
Two such "hung" buildings have been constructed in New York. The center pole is in the middle of the building, and all of the steel floor beams are suspended from it and braced against sagging. The outside of the building is merely a shell of brick or terra-cotta to keep out the weather and does not have to support anything more than its own weight.
Now efforts are being made to introduce lighter materials for the walls and floors of hung buildings, including featherweight, fireproof concrete for floors and glass for the outer walls. Another innovation is steam radiators only ankle-high.
One set of inventors is working on a scheme of weaving rugs and draperies with electric wires concealed in the fabric through which a current can be run to keep the room warm, on the principle of the electric heating-pads, now familiar everywhere.
FREEZING
After three or four years of experimenting with frozen fish and meat, one of the largest food distributing companies is now going for frozen fruits, vegetables and oysters. Modern methods of instant freezing instantly check all tendency to decay, and when the frozen product is thawed out it is said to be exactly as good as when fresh.
Spinach, cherries, loganberries, red raspberries and peas are among the foodstuffs to which the freezing process of preservation has been applied with success thus far, in addition to practically all kinds of meat and seafoods.
ICE CREAM
Every person in the United States ate three gallons of ice-cream last year, according to the United States Department of Agriculture. If you got less than that, somebody else ate more. The consumption of ice-cream has increased by one-half in ten years.
We are shipping ice-cream from America now to every part of the world. At your hotel in Cairo, Egypt or Bombay, or Hong Kong, you will find a well-known American brand of ice-cream on the menu. One of the greatest inventions in the food line is the homogenizer used by ice-cream manufacturers, which enable them to store surplus cream through the Winter in the form of butter. Butter will keep where pure cream will not. It is run through the homogenizer, which breaks up the fat globules, mixing them with milk, with pure cream as the product, which can then be flavored and frozen.

LIGHT
A young man named Elmer Sperry went to Chicago fifty years ago and began to make electric arc lights. He built a tower on top of the Board of Trade-building and installed 20 electric arcs which gave 40,000 candle-power of light. It was the wonder of its time, but another young man named Edison about that time brought out incandescent light and that soon replaced arcs for city lighting.
Elmer Sperry kept on experimenting with arcs, however, and developed the searchlights which are used today by every navy in the world and by most armies. Sperry died a few weeks ago at the age of 70, but before his death he gave the city of Chicago the most powerful light ever built. It is known as the Lindbergh Beacon, and was first used during the national air meet in August. It stands on a tower 600 feet above Lake Michigan, and throws a light more intense, per square inch of radiating surface, than that of the sun. It can be seen for 250 miles, to guide flyers to the Chicago Airport.

Reduction of Waste Is An Aid to Prosperity
Expressing the opinion that the reduction of waste is one of the most important factors in the development of prosperity, Willard E. Shepherd, of the Shepherd Tractor & Equipment Co., distributors of "Caterpillar" tractors for Los Angeles, Orange and Ventura Counties, made the following statement:
"Recipes for prosperity seem to be popular nowadays. Most of them are formulated from the point of view of the manufacturer or business man. It is therefore pertinent to discuss the problem of bringing back prosperity from the standpoint of the farmer.
"The most important thing for every farmer to do, in my opinion, is to concentrate on the idea of increased efficiency. One of the best ways to do this is to begin by reducing waste to the minimum. Choice of equipment is especially significant. It is false economy to use inefficient equipment just to save the cost of buying new and better equipment. It has been found that"
Wright Family Reunion at Fullerton
The fourth annual reunion of descendants of Mr. and Mrs. Amos Wright was held at the Fullerton city park last Friday night. There were fifty-three direct descendants of this pioneer couple in attendance, including children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Mr. and Mrs. Wright pioneered when they came across the plains in a covered wagon in 1863. They first settled in Pasadena but in 1873 they located in Anaheim. Since the reunion a year ago Mrs. Mary Key, a daughter of the pioneer couple, died at her home on the Placentia ranch. A new member of the family group is Kenneth Edward Singer, young son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Swinger, of Alhambra.

Mr. Marcus said that the orders placed through his office will fill a solid trainload of twenty cars, 40,000 rolls of wallpaper to the car, and weighing a total of 400 tons.
Mr. Marcus was accompanied to Anaheim by Ralph Haskins, sales manager for Southern California. Both men expressed the opinion that business is on the up grade and they look for a steady improvement in all lines of trade.

popular nowadays. Most of them are formulated from the point of view of the manufacturer or business man. It is therefore pertinent to discuss the problem of bringing back prosperity from the standpoint of the farmer.
"The most important thing for every farmer to do, in my opinion, is to concentrate on the idea of increased efficiency. One of the best ways to do this is to begin by reducing waste to the minimum. Choice of equipment is especially significant. It is false economy to use inefficient equipment just to save the cost of buying new and better equipment. It has been found that the right kind of tools will soon save their cost in the saving of labor and the reduction of waste which they make possible.
"Of all the equipment used on a farm the tractor is, of course, the most important. The right kind of tractor will not only be more economical to buy, to operate and to maintain, but it will also help produce bigger and better crops at lower costs. If every farmer would give careful attention to his selection of tractors and other equipment it would not only increase the profits made by each individual, but would also contribute materially to the prosperity of the entire community."
Strodthoff-Rhodes Wedding Consumed
Miss Alice Genevieve Strodthoff, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Otto Strodthoff of 1933 Virginia Road, Los Angeles, and William Wendell Rhodes, also of Los Angeles, were married on Saturday evening at 8 o'clock in the Church of the Messiah, West Washington boulevard, by the Rev. Mr. Gaylord, pastor of the church, in the presence of more than a hundred guests. The church was beautifully decorated, the colors pink and green being artistically blended throughout the interior.
The bride wore a lovely imported lace gown with a long veil, and orange blossoms. A romantic interest attaches to the costume which was the one worn by her mother, the beautiful Miss Selma Hansen when she became the bride of Otto Strodthoff at a wedding which was one of the events of the social season in this city.
Miss Bernice Strodthoff, sister of the bride, was gowned in peach and the bridesmaids, Miss Dorothy Yungbluth, her cousin, and Miss Geraldine Strodthoff, her sister, in shades of green.
A reception at the home of the bride's parents followed the ceremony. The bride and bridegroom left later for a honeymoon trip to the Grand Canyon. They will be at home to their friends in Los Angeles after October 1.
Those from Anaheim attending the wedding were Mr. and Mrs. F. A. Yungbluth, Miss Dorothy Yungbluth, Edward Yungbluth, Hugo Strodthoff, Mr. and Mrs. William Dolan, the Misses Geraldine and Isabel Dolan, and William Dolan, Jr.
New Organ Dedicated With Pleasing Concert
The dedication of the Estey pipe organ of Bethel Baptist church Monday night was a notable musical event of the early autumn, a delightful program being heard by a large audience. Prof. M. F. C. Westphal, of Rosemead, Calif., gave a program of classical and sacred music which displayed the features of the organ, among the numbers being "Nun Danket Alle Gott," an original composition with chimes; Wagner's "Prelsled" from "Die Meistersinger;" Kreisler's "Liebeslied;" the minuet from the overture of Hendel's "Berenice;" Dvorak's "Largo," and a number of others.
Two anthems were sung by the choir, Gounod's "Send Out Thy Light" and Herbert's "Let Mount Zion Rejoice." Herbert Stabler also pleased the audience with a violin number, Tschalkowsky's "Andata Cantabile."
The Rev. Mr. Schroeder opened the program with a brief word of welcome and the benediction was by the Rev. B. C. Voll, of West Broadway M. E. church.
The musical features of the concert were enhanced by the beautiful floral decorations which were provided by Mrs. E. A. Abbott.
Gas Fumes Cause Death
Cyanide gas fumes inhaled while fumigating orange trees caused the death of Michael F. Burns, 414 North Olive street, Sunday night. He was a "tent puller" in the fumigating department of the Placentia Orange Growers Association and is thought to have inhaled the gas fumes while helping move a tent from one tree to another at a grove at Commonwealth and Raymond avenues east of Fullerton.
The pulmotor squad from the Fullerton fire department worked for more than an hour in an effort to save Burns, Coroner Charles D. Brown held an inquest on the victim, who is survived by his daughter, Mrs. Bertha Barns, with whom he made his home, and by two other daughters and a brother in Illinois.

knifed man and his attacker has been caught.
The scene described actually was participated in by Victor Killick, statistician for the California highway patrol, when he was in Detroit recently. Killick spent one entire night with the crew of one of the radio-equipped cars patrolling the city.
"The use of radio as a standard part of police equipment is the greatest advance made in law enforcement in recent years," Killick declares. "While far from perfected for police work, radio furnishes a means of communicating instantaneously with officers away from a central police station."
This instantaneous communication advantage of police radio systems, permitting officers to save many pervious minutes in starting their pursuit of lawbreakers, far offsets any of the apparent disadvantages, Killick believes.
Exhaustive tests of the possibilities of radio as applied to the work of the California highway patrol are now under way. If the tests are successful and the use of radio deemed desirable for the patrol, efforts will be made to secure a state-wide police radio system.
