Hugh Walpole's "Judas Parie" was reviewed by Mrs. C. E. Harbenson, and Mrs. Dana Newkirk reviewed "Mothers of the West," by Reynolds.
Miss Ruth Tauton found little if anything to commend in Dreiser's "Dawn," although his "Newspaper Days," she thought, would be of general interest.
The chief interest which Mrs. Harry Horn found in the book of letters which Bernard Shaw and Ellen Terry wrote to each other was in the dramatics.
Mrs. Nellie Terry reviewed Terry Stephenson's "Shadows of Old Saddleback," written by an Orange county newspaper man.

Newport Japanese Goes to Altar
A wedding of a Newport Beach bride last Sunday had a Japanese flavor to it that was quite out of common, when Mary Masuda, of the Japanese type of beauty, became the bride of Roy T. Takehata, owner of a Los Angeles chain of markets. The ceremony was at the Los Angeles Union church.
The bride's sister, Shizuko Kobaehl of Fresno, was maid of honor, and four young girls acted as bridesmaids. They were Hisako Masuda, eister of the bride, Helen Ban, Hatsuka Matsumiya and Billie Kawahara, all residents of the Newport vicinity.
The bride has been a resident of Newport Beach for several years and is a graduate of the Huntington Beach high school. She acted as Japanese and Mexican interpreter in Americanization work at the Talbert and other schools in the county and is a proficient and charming young woman, being able to speak in a half dozen different languages. She is a protege of Mrs. Florence Summers, in charge of Americanization work at Huntington Beach.
Joe Masuda, the brother of the bride operates a fruit and vegetable market, where Mary has been employed up to a few weeks ago.
A reception was tendered the young bride last Saturday evening in the Civic league clubrooms, under the direction of Mrs. Summers and some 200 of her friends and neighbors from all parts of the county, came to pay their respects to this charming flower of Japan.

H. A. Scott Named Meat Firm Chief
Appointment of H. A. Scott, formerly manager of the Charles S. Hardy Meat Company, and prior to that manager of the Associated Meat Company, both of Los Angeles, as manager of the Southern Meat Company was announced this week.
Mr. Scott was brought to the Anaheim firm in order to allow Stanley Chapman, who has managed it for several years, to devote more of his time to other interests of the vast Chapman holdings in Southern California. The new manager first took over reins here October 26, and since that time has been getting acquainted with local conditions previous to planning any enlargement of activities.
"I am extremely enthusiastic about the possibilities of the Southern Meat Company." Mr. Scott stated Thursday for attention and the doctor expected the work to be free.
He squawked like a stuck pig and got the bill down to half, which he paid. The dentist told him he had to charge him full rates because he had only so many hours a day to work and his time was fully taken up. Needless to state, the doctor is now recommending another dentist to his clients.

A DISAPPOINTED VISITOR—
Premier Laval, who is practically the ruler of France, the President of that country being largely a figurehead, learned, when he landed in New York, that being a personage has its troubles. He wanted to look at the big city but, he confided to his intimates, the most he saw when he approached the Battery, was a lot of silk hats and broad backs belonging to the welcoming committee.

Mr. Scott was brought to the Anaheim firm in order to allow Stanley Chapman, who has managed it for several years, to devote more of his time to other interests of the vast Chapman holdings in Southern California. The new manager first took over reins here October 26, and since that time has been getting acquainted with local conditions previous to planning any enlargement of activities.
"I am extremely enthusiastic about the possibilities of the Southern Meat Company," Mr. Scott stated Thursday morning. "The Anaheim company has been producing a very high grade of meat, specializing on baby beef and every effort will be made to maintain the high grade product."
"Skippy" Coming to Fox Anaheim Theatre
Next Saturday's matinee at the Fox Anaheim theatre is going to be a joyous time for the boys and girls. Their favorite movie is coming back for that occasion—"Skippy," with Mitzi Green, Jackie Seal and Jackie Cooper still in the title roles. "Skippy" has been at the Fox before, when it made a great hit with the kids.
But there is another reason why a swarm of the children should see "Skippy." The admission will be a can of carned goods from the grocery—anything in cans—soups, vegetables, corn, or whatever.
The canned goods will be turned over by the Fox management to the City Welfare department, which will use the cans to help fill Thanksgiving baskets which are to be given free to needy families of the city.
The Parent-Teachers' association and other civic organizations are joining with the Fox management to get a great host of children into the theatre for Saturday's matinee—not only to see "Skippy," but to help poor families of Anaheim to have a feast on Thanksgiving.
VALENCIA PACKING ENDS
The Anaheim Orange and Lemon association is closing its packing season this week. The plant has in the last few days reduced the number of its employees to about half the number while packing was at the peak. Figures on the season's pack will be made known in the annual report, said G. W. Sandilands, secretary-manager.

A DISAPPOINTED VISITOR—
Premier Laval, who is practically the ruler of France, the President of that country being largely a figurehead, learned, when he landed in New York, that being a personage has its troubles. He wanted to look at the big city but, he confided to his intimates, the most he saw when he approached the Battery, was a lot of silk hats and broad backs belonging to the welcoming committee.
Even his mile ride up Broadway to the City Hall did not give him much chance to see things as the crowds pressed close to his auto and demanded he look at them and not at the buildings.
His experience is that of all famous men. The way to see New York is to slip in quietly and roam around without any committee telling you what to do or where to go. Still, he enjoyed it all, he claims.
DOCTOR'S FEES—
There is no place in the world where you can pay more for doctoring than in New York, fees of $3000 and $5000 being nothing uncommon for wealthy people to pay. But, on the other hand, if you haven't got a cent, you can probably get the same service from one of the hundreds of free dispensaries.
Dr. Lorenz of Vienna, once charged Armour $20,000 for an operation on his little daughter, Lolita, in Chicago, and cured her of a hip disease. On his way West he stopped off in this city and treated more than twenty poor children for the same trouble. And none of them paid one cent. That kind of charity, or kindness, is going on all the time here and in most other big cities.
WHEN ONE DOCTOR SQUAWKED
One fashionable doctor here who gets top fees, has been in the habit of sending his patients who had bad teeth to a certain dentist. He made him famous, and the tooth-puller finally got to charging $3000 fee himself.
Recently the doctor's 18-year old son needed dental work and he sent him to the dentist. After the work was done he got a bill for $3,000. Everybody knows one doctor never charges another.

Salton Sea Yields
Quota of Ducks
Three Anaheim nimrods returned Tuesday evening from the Salton Sea with their quota of ducks, and tired and hungry after a two-day jaunt from this city. Contrary to law, quite a bit of shooting began by 9 o'clock Monday morning instead of at noon, and the local men had to wait until early Tuesday morning before they were successful in begging any game.
Those making the trip were L. A. Freeman, Roy N. Mendoza and Marion Henry. They brought back 36 ducks and one goose.
BURGLARS IN POSTOFFICE
Some time during the week-end, burglars used a wrecking bar and pried their way into the rear of the Anaheim postoffice. But they found slim pickings, for Postmaster Whittaker could not find much of value missing on Monday morning. The only plunder the thieves found was a small quantity of change in the money-order drawer and $10 in the registry drawer.
Uncle Hiram remarked to Aunt Sade at breakfast the other morning that about the only thing that you can get in the public eye these days, without the help of the newspapers or the radio, is grapefruit—The Farmers' Wife.
