OBSERVATIONS AND STILL THEY MAKE BABY BUGGIES Said he: "I love you; won't you marry me?" Said she: "For the fortieth time I have told you 'no!' I wouldn't marry you if you was the last man on earth." YOU FIRST MY DEAR GASTON: YOU FIRST MY DEAR ALPHONSE Now that the population of Fullerton and Anaheim has been definitely fixed, why not bury the hatchet and hang up the horse-shoe. AND THEN REAL FIREWORKS STARTED Said the husband: "Dear, can't you forgive and forget?" Said the wife: "My door is open to any man—except you." GOSH, SHE'S A REAL GIRL Often you find one that's different. The girl speaking: "I came into this world honest on a farm back in Kansas; and say, big boy, I'm going out that way." FOR HEAVEN'S SNAKES. WHAT DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THAT! In a window appeared some new designs in women's dresses. Quite a number of ladies gathered and looked. One of the garments showed a chic creation with the waist line very small. Fact is, it was diminutive. The ladies looked and laughed. Then one corpulent lady said: "I would have to be squeezed by a boa constrictor to get into that." ANOTHER COUNTY HEARD FROM A candidate for office in another state says he believes the wet and dry question will be the dominant issue. MEBBE YOU BETTER MAKE A NOTE OF THIS After hearing the "singing voices" of some of the stars the man in the rumble seat rises to remark that they should devote more time to detective work, in that they may be able to find the lost chords.

TALK IS CHEAP The height of something or other is for a fella to rush in, call up long distance, run up a bill for 50 cents for the chatter—then leave 10 cents on the counter, and bid you good-day. Oh, you, Polooka. MAKE HAY WHILE THE SUN SHINES When that hectic oil company up state was going like wild fire and the list of suckers grew by leaps and bounds, prominent men formed pools to handle the stock. There was gold in them thar hills. People dumped their hard earned cash into the deals in bucketfuls. They were crazy for money and greed. Of course the prominent men with money believed the stock they were hauling was legitimate. And still the money rolled in, and the prominent men were there with baskets to pick it up. There was such a demand for "call" money to keep those deals working that one banker it is alleged got 58 per cent interest for short loans. Of course, he believed everything was all right. He believed Santa Claus had arrived. Of course, if the people would have paused for a moment and investigated a little bit they would have found out there was nothing to tie to. It was just a wild scramble for money. They all wanted to feather their nests. Of course the prominent men never dreamed the law would be put onto them. So they just kept forming more pools to handle more stock to sell to the suckers. Of course they didn't think they were doing any wrong. It was fat picking and many prominent men moved over onto easy street—while the legitimate stockholders, after the blowup, were left holding the sack. Was it conspiracy? Naw. Sagacity. NO STREETS NAMED AFTER HIM Ethel—Do you know Bill, who, whozer? Gladys—Yeah (between cigs.) he's a pretty good guy; but he thinks a boiler-maker's special is a crack railway train. ONLY ONE CYLINDER HITTING The man and wife were being sued for the rent. Tears were shed although they had a garage. It was sad. "You have a car?" "Oh yes." "Paid for?" "Nope." "What kind of car have you?" "Oh, it's a Kadilac." "My man is a sort of cad, and I lack the funds to pay the landlord." NOW. DID THEY GO INTO THE WATER? The thermometer registered 98 in the shade. Two young ladies emerged from a downtown apartment house. They were becoming attired in modern bathing suits—you know, the kind that would rattle around in a cigar box. The gals walked to the curb, got into a car and drove away—evidently looking for the Pacific ocean. A passing policeman, paused, pushed back his cap, and as he moved up street, made a hand gesture sideways and said "I'll be here."

If the wimmin wear bathing suits all the time a fella wouldn't know when summer began or winter ended. S'ALL RIGHT (HIC) DEARIE. (HIC) GO'WAY (HIC) Just to show how it acts, a wife says her husband used to be a model man; then one day he began on bootleg, and when he went to bed he kept on everything—even his shoes and hat. HEY, EDDIE. FETCH THE OIL OF BERGAMOT A man, after spending several weeks in a county jail up state, was liberated and went home to his family. LEAPING LUNA Quite a lot of states have had their names linked with the moon when directors went gunning for titles to "pitchers." When they run out of states they can use the first, second and last quarter and for a finale use the full moon. When those names are exhausted they might go in for moonshine. THROWING THE BULL That dashing young American bull fighter has made a hit with the Spaniards. As a matadore he is in a class all by himself. He teases the bulls so much that they finally give up and eat out of his hands. They act like they want to hide out, and no doubt, they could be staked out. Fooey. HOP AND POP If the home brewers keep on experimenting it is reasonable to suppose that some day they will make some zippy stuff. ONE WAY BOULEVARD And now after the case has been argued, rebutted and submitted it has been decided that the buyer is an innocent bystander. SYRUS NOBEL EXPERIMENT A law saying the seller is guilty and the buyer is not. Has caused a great deal of Old Crow-ing, Because if the buyer were put on the spot. It would stop the cheer water from flowing. ANAHEIM GAZETTE Brazilian Beauty Senhorita Yolanda Pereira of Rio de Janeiro, who was crowned "Miss Universe" in an international beauty contest in South America. extended into a volume, according to Mr. Salisbury. Not only buyers of crops and stock but chiefly farmers themselves are aided by the market outlook charts prepared on nearly all commodities. In order to get them out on time the radio service uses a leased wire to send them directly to the stations and they are put on the air at once. Information once known only to speculators is now laid hot at the farmer's door. The main program of the department's service goes on the air from eleven-thirty to twelve-thirty central standard time each day, and an hour later eastern standard time. It blankets that entire territory, reaching points in the far west. Salisbury believes the popularity of the program is a key to its benefit to the farmer. He points with pride to the fact that announcers for the big chain which handles the Farm Hour switched three minutes of his time to announce an important addition to the chain's program units. There was no other period in the day when a complete hook-up reaching the fullest possible audience could be obtained. This is an eloquent tribute when it is remembered that individual sections can select the VICIOUS SUNDAY CLOSING LAW A PERIL TO ALL INDUSTRIES A MENACE TO ALL EMPLOYEES The proposed Sunday Closing Act (Proposition 26, November 4 Election Ballot) threatens loss totaling millions of dollars to California industry. Approximately 2500 plants representing an annual production of one thousand million dollars would be affected. Loss of employment to thousands of workers affecting practically every line of industry will result if this vicious law is enacted. Misleading and loaded with jokers, "The Barber Shop Law", sponsored by barbers, is a proposed amendment that would make unlawful the performance of labor by any individual or the operation of plants or factories on Sunday, with certain ambiguous exceptions. The first Section of No. 26 provides: "It shall be unlawful for any person, firm, association, or corporation to conduct, carry on, or keep open for business on Sunday and store, barber shop, workshop, factory or other place of business, or to perform or employ any labor on Sunday." This law would prohibit such work as repairs on machinery and equipment, rush work to fulfill contracts or which a definite date is set and other kinds of work which practically every manufacturer finds necessary from time to time. Washington, D.C., Oct. 29—When the drought reached its crisis and began to tell so heavily on the farmer in crop and livestock losses that it developed into a national problem the Federal Farm Board and the Department of Agriculture turned naturally for a means of giving direct information and quick reassurance to the farmer to that four-year old agency—the farm radio service. Although its consequences in other directions were disastrous the drought gave a "break" to the radio service that it brought to the attention of federal agencies more forcibly than over the importance of this branch of the department of agriculture's activities. As a result, it is not unlikely that the next congress will raise the $8,000 now allotted annually for its maintenance. Morse Sallsbury, however, is chucking all of facts to show that the farm radio service has paid for itself many times during its brief existence. Mr. Sallsbury took up the direction of the service two years ago where it was set off by Sam Pickard, who became a member of the federal radio commission. Like Pickard, Sallsbury is from Kansas, has a thorough training in agricultural economics and practical farming, and loves his job. Sallsbury says the best way to show how the farm radio programs, now going out each day to every agricultural section of the United States, are of aid to the farmer is to cite a few examples. The other day an Oklahoma sheepaler wrote in his experience. Thisaler held up a contract for several thousand sheep one day when he heard the department's sheep outlook report predicting a record supply for next spring. He bought his sheep two weeks earlier and saved fifteen hundred dollars. A Kansas housewife was going to get off until the next day a few domestic tasks incident to winter's coming on. She heard over the radio farm hour that it was snowing in Denver. She performed her duties that same day and the next day cold weather struck part of the state. This dissinular incidents show the value of the service. They might be factories on Sunday, with certain ambiguous exceptions. The first Section of No. 26 provides: "It shall be unlawful for any person, firm, association, or corporation to conduct, carry on, or keep open for business on Sunday and store, barber shop, workshop, factory or other place of business, or to perform or employ any labor on Sunday." This law would prohibit such work as repairs on machinery and equipment, rush work to fulfill contracts on which a definite date is set and other kinds of work which practically every manufacturer finds necessary from time to time. Where Sunday work is now in practice either the continuous work is virtually a matter of necessity or is performed by the employee because of the increased compensation. This measure, if passed, will constitute an unwarranted attempt to interofer with the personal liberty of the individual. Let us not bow to a small minority of barbers who would compel this abridgment of our personal rights. This is no time for throwing men out of work and California is no place for making Sunday idle, dull and dismal. Labor and industry should emphatically defeat the measure.

The $50,000 came from some oil firms and stock brokers...who in turn got it from John W. Public. The plan was to tell everybody a lot of nice things that may be true but apparently aren't since a good portion of the country doesn't believe what they say. In fact, 97% think so little of the idea that they are getting along without it. For the benefit of any late tuners-in, let's take a good look at Daylight Saving and see what its results are. In the first place, that extra hour is a myth. You can't make a 25 hour day. What you'll "CALIFORNIA'S" 1610 W. Washington Blvd. Los Angeles P.S. Well, if you must know, it actually was $66,000.
