C.—That both the President and Mrs. Washington suffered from homesickness while in executive residence in New York and Philadelphia, is recorded in history. Mrs. Washington wrote to Mrs. Fanny Washington whom she had left in charge at Mount Vernon: "I never go to any public place. Indeed, I think I am more like a state prisoner than anything else; there is certain bounds set for me, which I must not depart from, and as I cannot do as purchases of "one doz, packs of playing cards." Washington's natural fondness for horses and racing and sometimes cock-fighting during his life, was entirely in keeping with the traditional tastes of the Virginia gentleman. He not only subscribed liberally to most of the racing purses, but ran his own horses, attending in person, and betting moderately on all the results. He was fond of riding to hounds and when at Mount Vernon this was one of his favorite times. Hunting and Fishing He loved hunting and fishing and dragging for sturgeon, too, and often went duck hunting. Although these pursuits were for the most part impossible while Washington was in office, he did occasionally manage to slip away. In 1790 a paper records, "yesterday afternoon the President of the United States returned from Sandy Hook and the fishing banks, where he had been for the benefit of the sea air, and to amuse himself in the delightful recreation of fishing. We are told he has had excellent sport, having himself caught a great number of black sea bass and black fish—the weather proved remarkably fine, which altogether with the salubriity of the air and wholesome exercise, rendered this little voyage extremely agreeable, and cannot fall we hope of being serviceable to a speedy and complete restoration of health."

Yu He is the very President and Mrs. Washington suffered from homesickness while in executive residence in New York and Philadelphia, is recorded in history. Mrs. Washington wrote to Mrs. Fanny Washington whom she had left in charge at Mount Vernon: "I never go to any public place. Indeed, I think I am more like a state prisoner than anything else; there is certain bounds set for me, which I must not depart from, and as I cannot do as I like, I am obstinate and stay at home a great deal." No Charms for Him The President, in writing to a friend in Virginia regarding the dignity of his position, said, "God knows it has no charms for me. I had rather be at Mount Vernon with a friend or two about me, than to be attended at the seat of government by officers of state and representatives of every power in Europe." Yet, says the George Washington Bi-centennial Commission, there was no lack of gayety in either city with a continual round of balls dinner parties, theatres, concerts, and other diversions, and if the Chief Executive and his wife could not join in the most exciting pastimes of the capital, they could at least follow their inclinations in many aspects. Loo a Popular Game In Colonial times there was a passion for gambling in certain quarters, and bets were placed on all games. Loo, or as Washington spelled it "leu," was the most popular, and it was no uncommon thing for a man or woman to win or lose two or three hundred dollars at a sitting. There is no record, however, of Washington's winning more than three pounds, or of losing more than nine pounds, fourteen shillings and nine pence. In fact, Washington always played for small stakes. He seemed to be interested in the game and the diversion it afforded rather than in the winnings. Cards and Billards Washington's fondness for cards and billards shows in his diary in an account where before he became President he often recorded that he had been "home all day at cards" and itemized for the benefit of the sea air, and to amuse himself in the delightful recreation of fishing. We are told he has had excellent sport, having himself caught a great number of black sea bass and black fish—the weather proved remarkably fine, which altogether with the salubriity of the air and wholesome exercise, rendered this little voyage extremely agreeable, and cannot fail we hope of being serviceable to a speedy and complete restoration of health." Fond of Theatre Both the President and Mrs. Washington were exceedingly fond of the theatre in spite of the vigorous opposition accorded this art in every state in the Union. During his Presidency, Washington used the theatre for entertaining, his ledger showing purchases of tickets bought and sent to various ladies and gentlemen with the invitation to occupy a seat in his box. They went to puppet shows, to see dancing bears and to Mrs. Bowen's waxworks at 74 Water Street, New York, and also attended the circus where a famed equestrian of the times performed in the ring with his company of skilled riders and acrobats. Washington a Dancer Although Washington was extremely fond of dancing, and was an accomplished dancer of the period, the consensus of opinion is that neither he nor Mrs. Washington danced while he was in office. Some historians maintain that he danced at a ball which was given in his honor soon after his first inauguration, and before Mrs. Washington had arrived from Mount Vernon. On this occasion, he is said to have danced the cotillion with Mrs. Peter Livingston and Mrs. Maxwell, and to have led the minuet with Mrs. Maxwell's sister, Miss Van Zandt, one of the famous beauties of New York. With both sides so evenly matched this coming session of Congress may be like one of those 0 to 0 football games. And come to think of it, maybe the country will be just as well off if too much scoring isn't done.

Silver Bells Ring For Yungbluths (Continued from Page 1) that somewhere on the way he lost his hat. And, too, Americans were kind and helpful to the German boy who could not talk in the tongue of the United States. All the way across the United States from New York to Anaheim, the boy from Germany was on the alert to see a tree on which money grew. But none were in sight. Maybe they only grew in Anaheim. Eventually he arrived here, and it was here that he found the money trees in plenty—but golden Valencia oranges were growing on them. One of Anaheim’s “Old Timers,” who has known Fred Yungbluth through the 40 years, says that the youngster from Germany began down at the bare ground in getting a start in life in what to him was a strange country with a stranger language. When Fortune Smiled Uncle Fred’s chief fortune was in his knowledge of tailoring and in his shop there awaited the job for Nephew Fred, whose pay was to be his board and keep. But in time Fortune turned her smiles on him. It was when a workman who had a daily job on the edge of town employed the boy to bring his dinner pail to him at noon. The pay was to be 50 cents a week, $2 a month, $24 a year—you can figure it up for yourself. Now 50 cents a week, $2 a month, $24 a year, was a lot of money to a German boy who was working for his board and keep. Why, in ten years at that rate, if he did not spend any of it, the boy would have $240, and that was more than any of his boy friends back in Coblenz had. Had His Own Bank Came the first payday of $2 at the end of the first month—2 in cash money. The boy from Germany did not know much about the American method of placing money in a bank for safe keeping. Rather than take any chance on a bank, the boy from Germany started a bank of his own, hiding his $2 a month under the floor matting of his room. While he was rolling up wealth at the rate of $2 a month, young Fred was mastering the intricacies of the tailor’s trade from Uncle Fred. He did not know it at the time, but he was laying the foundation for his future that would mean more than $2 a month, $24 a year, $240 every ten years. Sign Over Own Store.

Completing production of 250,000 bags, or 12,500 tons of sugar, the Holly Sugar Co. factory at Santa Ana shut down operations for the season on October 19. The last beets have been cut in Orange county and the campaign is completed. According to R. M. Daniels, superintendent of the factory, the plant carried a crew of approximately 300 men during the season and used the entire production of 4500 acres of sugar beets in this district, in addition to a large quantity of beets shipped in from the north. Mr. Daniels says beet acreage in Orange county is being reduced from year to year, making it necessary to ship in more tonnage from the north each season. Between thirty and forty men will be retained during the winter and until re-opening of the season next year, according to Mr. Daniels. These men will work in the warehouse and about the An Ultra-Modern High-Speed Road Sixty and seventy miles an hour is still too slow a pace for some of the hurried motorists, so now an Ultra-modern high-speed boulevard between Newport Beach and Santa Ana, to be part of the State highway system, at comparatively small expense, will become a reality if a campaign initiated at a meeting of Newport Chamber of Commerce directors is carried through. The plan is to utilize the 100-foot right-of-way of the Southern Pacific as a highway in conjunction with the present Newport Boulevard, which the railway parallels most of the way between the two cities. The Southern Pacific desires to take up the tracks on this line, the old McFadden railway, now used for small shipments of freight, which could come... mastering the intricacies of the tailor's trade from Uncle Fred.

The immediate popularity of this invention led not only to the development of many other electrical appliances, but also to the rise of a great California industry. Electrical manufacturing concerns in this state make practically every type of equipment. Their yearly production totals 47 million dollars; their payroll, 4 millions. Like other manufacturers, makers of electrical equipment profit by the economy and efficiency of Bank of America's statewide service. Through cooperation of the Bank's branches, collections for shipments are made without delay. These funds are transferred promptly to or from any desired point. Thus, outstanding funds are reduced; earning power of working capital is substantially increased. Bank of America also furnishes dependable business reports, which enable manufacturers to improve their service to distributors. The advantages of this flexible, statewide service, and the security of the ample, diversified resources of Bank of America, are available to you at a nearby branch.
