Of Greatest Importance to TRAVEL Santa Fe The Santa Fe THREE FARE PLAN is a new way to lower the cost of a trip East... It introduces a Tourist Pullman service for less money... Or a Coach and Reclining Chair Car service for still less... Or the Standard Pullman accommodations for the regular fare. But all on the same fast trains and each made popular and attractive by Santa Fe courtesy and efficiency. Fred Harvey Dining Rooms and Lunch Rooms add to the economy and success of the THREE FARE PLAN. STOPOVERS Chicago $500 "GOOD" Europeans Surpass Us In Courtesy Anaheim Traveler Writes Entertaining Letter to Gazette On Her Observations By MRS. HONOR H. EASTON Paris, France, Feb. 26. The time to write is either stolen from sight-seeing, or one tries to write when too tired and dazed by busy doings to give the vital impression that travel letters should. The written word is a pale reflection at best. I have always been an avid reader of biography and travel, but to visit a place, is as much beyond reading about it as knowing a man surpasses his biography. Courtesy of Working Men Travelers are given to drawing superficial conclusions. You have heard of the tourist who on his way from the station to his hotel across the street met two lame men, and wrote home to his friends "All the people in this country have one leg shorter than the other." Possibly my observations have been like that, but surely Europeans surpass us in courtesy. One constantly hears one workman say to another "sit vous plait" or in Italy "Permissso,"—little courteous expression come natural from childhood. Father O'Nell, the American Catholic priest in Rome, said he had been there nine years, and never yet had heard a child cry on the street. A Courtesy Cult In the eleventh century there was a cult of Courtesy. It accounts for the graciousness of the cathedrals. The very poor of the heads in the statuary at Chantry indicates difference. "Of course, though it be less than pure heart or holiness, yet in my heart it seems to me that the Grace of all reaching the heir. The house simply w rose to their feet, so hoarse.

Father O'Neil, the American Catholic priest in Rome, said he had been there nine years, and never yet had heard a child cry on the street. A Courtesy Cult In the eleventh century there was a cult of Courtesy. It accounts for the graciousness of the cathedrals. The very pose of the heads in the statuary at Chantres indicates difference. "Of course, though it be less than pure-heart or holiness, yet in my heart it seems to me that the Grace of is in Courtesy." I can understand how display of wealth and the dis-courtesy which too frequently goes with it must offend Europeans with whom economy and politeness are cardinal virtues. If every traveler would consider himself a "good will" embassador, the mutual understanding of nations would become a realized dream. Hears a New Opera It has been our great good fortune to be in Paris at the first production of an opera which has taken this sophisticated public by storm. The composer is M. Raoul Lafarra, a brother-in-law of J. F. Burke, editor of the Santa Ana Register. The opera, "The Illustre Tregona," is taken from a short story by that name, by Cervantes. The production was brilliant beyond description. Music/staging, costuming. Studebaker Builder of Champions---Pioneer of Freeway Announces Appointment OF Glen A.

People rose to their feet, shouted themselves hoarse. The curtain was raised time after time. The author and director and actors hugged and kissed in true French style. It has been our privilege to become well acquainted with Mr. and Mrs. Lafarra in our month here, and to rejoice with them in the overwhelming success of this child of his genius Innovation in Staging An innovation in the manner of staging was the revolving scenery. The whole stage turns from, say a plaza full of dancing, singing villagers, to the interior of an inn, then instead of the illusion-breaking curtain, turns on again, and we see the departing bridal pair. Death of S. T. Miller Pioneer of County Funeral services for Samuel T. Miller, a pioneer of Orange county, where he had lived for 58 years, was held at the First Congregational church, Santa Ana, Monday morning. He was 93 years old, lived in Santa Ana, and death was the result of injuries received from a fall. Mr. Miller came to Orange county in 1873, four years after the founding of Santa Ana and could recall when there was but one store there. He was born in North Carolina in 1837. As a young man he furnished horses to the Confederate Army and tramped for many miles in the hope of collecting pay for his steeds. Going into Mexico he was employed as a stage driver between Monterey and San Luis Potosi, but after seventeen months at that hazardous work his stage and equipment were taken from him by Mexican soldiers. He was forced to abandon a stage route between San Antonio and El Paso because of Indian interference. Miller was then engaged as a scout by Gen. Wesley Merritt, who was re-establishing the American forts on the Mexican border. In 1873 he located on 160 acres in SMALL BOY FATALLY HURT When Rudy Carrison, 4-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Carrison, started to run across Oak street Friday afternoon, he was run down by a laundry truck and died from his injuries at the local hospital Saturday morning. The truck was driven by George H. Raines. Witnesses say that Raines was driving at lawful speed and that the boy dashed from behind a parked car into the path of the truck. DEATH OF O. H. MITCHELL Oliver Howard Mitchell died at the county hospital Monday after a long illness. He was a native of Iowa and had lived in California for 18 years. He was 25 years of age and his home was at 605 East Broadway. He is survived by Mrs. Mitchell, three daughters, Mrs. Verna Wallas, Whittier; Mrs. Jessie McCloskey of Angheim, and Mrs. Wilma Ingram of Long Beach; a sister, Mrs. Jennie Roberts of Southgate, and a brother, Sam Mitchell, of Los Angeles. PASTOR'S DUCHER DIES Miss Idida Castillo, twenty years of age, daughter of the Rev. and Mrs. M. D. Castillo, died at the family home, 225 East La Palma, Monday morning. She had been ill for several months. Her father is pastor of a church in the Mexican settlement. ROTARY ON FLEETING TRIP "A Fleeting Trip to South America" was the subject of an illustrated talk given the local Rotary club at its lunchon by Harry Lewis, a Santa Ana traveler, who showed steriotican views Earl Jackson and Ray LaFont spoke of the efforts of the 20-30 club to obtain Neon signs to mark the four entrances to the city, to be maintained by the city if the service clubs unite in installing them. “This Pled can save Thousa in 1931” Going into Mexico he was employed as a stage driver between Monterey and San Luis Potosí, but after seventeen months at that hazardous work his stage and equipment were taken from him by Mexican soldiers. He was forced to abandon a stage route between San Antonio and El Paso because of Indian interference. Miller was then engaged as a scout by Gen. Wesley Merritt, who was re-establishing the American forts on the Mexican border. In 1873 he located on 160 acres in Belle Canyon, Orange county, where his cabin still stands. He took up bee culture and set a record with forty tons of honey in one year from his colonies. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Mary A. Miller; a son Guy Miller of Calipatria; two daughters, Mrs. Emma Webster of Oakland, Mrs. W. D. Anderson of Santa Ana; a grandson, Erwin Decker of Santa Ana; a granddaughter, Mrs. Audra Gallagher of Oakland. FRANK MAUER'S FUNeral Funeral services for Frank G.
