FAITH
By Frances Anne Kemble.
Better trust all and be deceived,
And weep that trust and that deceiving.
Than doubt one heart that, if believed,
Had blessed one's life with true believing.
Oh, in this mocking world, too fast
The doubting fiend o'ertakes our youth;
Better be cheated to the last
Than lose the blessed hope of truth.

AUTO SHOW STARTS—
All automobile shows take their tempo from the New York show, which was held early this year, as usual. After leaving Manhattan the exhibitors moved across the East River to Brooklyn, and from there drifted out west, hitting many of the larger cities.
The show this year, which was avoided to quite an extent by dealers but thronged by the individual car owners, brought to light one interesting thing. Practically nobody this year is buying a car with the idea in mind of "keeping up with the Joneses."
The cars with the cutest gadgets and appearing to render the best value for the least money were having the best sales.
NOVELTIES—
This year's auto show had a lot of novelties. One of the neatest was a piece of what looked like oily rubber. You rubbed the windshield with it and rain failed to stick where it had been applied. It appeared to be fine protection for drivers in a heavy rain.
Another device kept the headlight turning so it lit up the road exactly where the car was then headed, a thing that appears to be boon to all night drivers on country roads. There were lots of other things that could not be grasped in a quick parade past the mile or so of booths.
AN ANCIENT CAR—
One of the cars on exhibit was the Holsman. This is not an advertisement for that particular car, although it was listed at 800. The car was built in 1902 and was an old fashioned buggy with a two-cylinder engine. It did from ten to fifteen miles an hour but was "dangerous at higher speeds."
Nearby was a model of the first automobile in all history. It was a sa steam-driven car, built in France in 1770, and made from six to twelve miles an hour. It was primarily designed for the removal of heavy artillery and not for commercial or pleasure use.
One bad thing about the old car was that it could run for only fifteen minutes. Then it had to be stopped and steam pressure built up again.
IN INSTRUCTIVE EXHIBIT—
Few drivers actually know what happens when they press certain pedals or move levers, nor how the clutch works and other things really valuable to know. One of the most interesting ex-
"Maker of Champions" Begins as Head Track Coach at Trenton
Dean Cromwell, developer of many international championship teams at the University of starting his 23 year of track and field constitution with two main objectives in mind: dean of western track coaches wants to lead to a fifth I.C.A.A.A.A. championship and thus gain for S.C. Although his Southern California squad have competed only eight times in I.C.4-A mets, they have won four championships, the victories being registered in 1925, '26 '30 and '31. His N.C.A.A. championships record is also a brilliant one, his Trojan team's having competed but four times and out of that number having won three titles in 1926, 1930 and 1931.
Maker of Champs
Sometimes called "maker of Champions," Coach Cromwell can look back upon a record of having produced 15 intercollegiate individual champions, ten national champions, three individual world's record holders and two world's record holding sprint relay teams.
Cromwell's individual champions were produced in a variety of events and indicate that the smiling mentor has a thorough knowledge of every event on the track and field program. His champions are most numerous in the sprouts where Frank Wykoff, Charles Paddock and Charley Borah have been outstanding stars, but in the high and low hurdles, broad jump, pole vault and weights he also rates high in the production of stars.
In recent years Southern California has had three intercollegiate low hurdle champions in Kenneth Grumbles.

IN INSTRUCTIVE EXHIBIT—
Few drivers actually know what happens when they press certain pedals or move levers, nor how the clutch works and other things really valuable to know. One of the most interesting exhibits at the auto show was a miniature model showing some ten operations on a car.
One could examine closely and see how all the main parts of the chassis operate. It was one of the best and most illuminating exhibits at the whole show and held more people than almost any other exhibit.
THRILLING DEMONSTRATION—
One of the leading makers was playing up the shatterproof glass and giving a continuous demonstration of the difference between ordinary glass and the new kind. The exhibitor took an ordinary pane of glass, warned the spectators to shield their eyes, and then crashed it into a thousand pieces with a hammer.
Then he had a pretty girl sit down and he held a piece of the shatterproof glass over her head and hit it with a hammer. The crowd never seemed to tire of the exhibition.
As the glass is available on all cars it looked to us as though we was doing a service for the entire industry by his exhibition.

Cromwell's individual champions were produced in a variety of events and indicate that the smiling mentor has a thorough knowledge of every event on the track and field program. His champions are most numerous in the sprats where Frank Wykoff, Charles Paddock and Charley Borah have been outstanding stars, but in the high and low hurdles, broad jump, pole vault and weights he also rates high in the production of stars.
In recent years Southern California has had three intercollegiate low hurdle champions in Kenneth Grumbles, Bill Carls and Ernie Payne, and one high hurdle champ in Leighton Dye Fred Kelly, a high hurdler, was Cromwell's first Olympic champion. Bud Houser was both an Olympian and an intercollegiate weight champ under Cromwell, while Bob Hall last year was the Trojan coach's latest intercollegiate weight winner.
Long List of Stars
Jesse Hill held the I. C. 4-A. broad jump record at 25 feet, 7-6 inch, until another Trojan, Dick Barker, came along and wrecked it with a leap of 25 feet, 31-2 inches. Lee Barnes, captain of Troy's team in 1928, holds the world's record in the pole vault a 114 feet, 11-2 inches, but this mark is in danger of being broken by Bill Graber, present Trojan junior, who won the I. C. 4-A. event last spring with a meet record of 14 feet, 1-2 inch.
One of Cromwell's greatest stars was Vic Williams, who like Wykoff, won first places in the I. C. 4-A, N. C. A. A. and national A. A. U. championships Last year Vic, now running for the Los Angeles A. C., was Cromwell's greatest quarter-miller, being an I. C. 4-A. record holder and a joint holder of the world's record of 472-5 seconds.
Then for champs in other events, Cromwell has produced Jesse Mortensen in the javelin and Jim Stewart in the high jump.
Despite his notable coaching career at Southern California, Cromwell takes his laurels as "maker of hampions" with a grain of salt. "I had the material," is about all he will say about it. "The boys had the making of champions when they arrived at Southern California. They were equipped with physical ability and determination—one can't be a champion without these."
"There are three things no coach can do," says the Trojan mentor. "He can't take a boy and put speed in his legs, wind in his chest or courage in his heart. He may take natural speed and develop it still more. He may work on lung power and increase it. He can sometimes remove timidity and self-consciousness and make way for inherent courage to come to the fore. But no coach can create the materials for the making of outstanding track and field men, and when you get right down to it, the matter of what a coach has to work with is of great importance."

But no coach can create the materials for the making of outstanding track and field men, and when you get right down to it, the matter of what a coach has to work with is of great importance."
Cromwell believes in bringing his boys along slowly and easily. He refuses to allow a boy to stay out for track who shows the slightest trace of weak heart or any physical defect that strenuous running may increase. He specializes his candidates. Boys who had competed in three or four events in high school are held to one on his teams. He is more apt to under-work rather than overwork his boys.
Relays His Specialty
Cromwell's greatest ability, strangely enough has received the least recognition. This is in his producing of record breaking sprint relay teams. Baton passing and timing have been hobbies of the Trojan coach for many years. The results he has obtained in sprint relay teams are little short of miraculous, two of his quartets now holding the two principal world's sprint relay records. His 880-yard team of 1927 holds the world's record of 1 minute, 25.8 seconds and his 440-yard quartet of 1931 set a new mark of 40 4-5 seconds.
A keen sense of humor, a refusal to take himself, his work or athletic competition too seriously, a love of all amateur sports and a delight in the company of young athletes have given Dean Cromwell a youthful spirit that he will never lose.
At the age of 53 he has the build of a college athlete and in looks appears no more than 40. His athletes do everything he asks in training because without a show of bluster he immediately convinces his pupils that he knows what he is talking about. His boys are inspired in big meets to do their best for him because they like him for his good nature and want to show the man they consider their best friend that they can come through for him.

SHIRTS—
The latest scheme to symbolize the anti-war movement is for everybody who is opposed to war to wear a green shirt. Mussolini and his followers wear a black shirt, the symbol of an organized dictatorship. Garibaldi, the Italian liberator, and his followers, wore red shirts, now the symbol of the Russian Communists. I have had an invitation from an organization called the "New History Society" to buy a green shirt and become an Internationalist.
Personally, I don't think I shall put on a green shirt. The implication is that the wearer is not only opposed to war on general principles, but oppose to any kind of preparation for war and is therefore willing to hand his country over to anybody else who wants to take it.
I think I will order a red-white-and-blue coat.
115 Avocado Men Visit San Diego
Numerous Stops Give Local Growers Pointers on Raising of Fruit
115 Orange county avocado growers travelling in 46 automobiles went to northern San Diego county last Friday to study plantings in that district.
The educational caravan was headed by Farm Advisor Harold E. Wanberg, and Judge F. D. Halm, chairman of the Avocado growers department of the farm bureau.
Stops were made at the Julius Presinger grove, Carlsbad, to note the tule mulch and heavy fertilization. A stratification of fumigation for certain scale was given at Dean Jarrett Carlsbad. In the Vista district, caution methods were observed on ornamental terraced plantations with Smith and Wynn, A. Shaw.
After lunch at Excondido the Orange county group was taken to the Roy Kepper avocado grove to study pruning methods. Mr. Kepper is chairman of the San Diego county avocado growers department of the farm bureau.
The top-worked of 18 year old sedling trees in the Walter Rose grove at Excondido showed in practical way how vigorous unfruitful trees may be converted to good bearing and profitable varieties.
The last stop at W. D Somerville ranch, Enclinitas, showed roots treated with Dordeaux spray for Dronewood rot, a disease of the avocado.

HOUSING—
I look for another big building boon very soon after the loosening up of bank credits and frozen assets makes money available for housing purposes.
I think we are going to see some innovations in home construction methods in the next few years, which will make it possible for a larger percentage of people to become home owners. I know of several groups of home planners who think they are going to be able to build houses to sell for $5000 which will be better in every way than houses which now sell for from $10,000 to $15,000.
That is only one of the big changes that are coming, and coming soon.
GOLD—
The head of a big New York bank told me this story the other night:
"One of our large depositors came into the bank this morning and asked if we had a safe deposit box big enough to hold a million dollars in gold. I told him we had plenty of boxes of that size, which surprised him. We sat down and figured out how much space a million dollars' worth of pure gold would occupy. It worked out to a box seventeen and one-half inches square and thirteen and one-half inches high. That would hold four thousand and thirty-two pounds of gold, which is a little more than a million dollars.
"I asked him what he wanted to know for, and he said that he was going to put a million dollars into gold coin and take it out of circulation. I told him he was crazy, because if everybody did that his gold wouldn't be worth anything, but he insisted, so we got him the gold for his million-dollar check, and there it is down in our safe deposit vault, doing nobody any good, not even the owner, because he has to pay rent for the box and is getting no interest."
Which proves, if it proves anything, that all the fools aren't dead yet.
MONEY—
The actual money in the possession of all of the people in the United States, including the banks and the Treasury, at the beginning of this year was nine billion four hundred twenty-two million
Enforcement Bureau Collects for Turkeys
W. R. Gordon of Placerville has received $594.16 from Gus Blanchi, doing Poultry company of San Francisco, for business under the name of New York delivery of Christmas turkeys, through a settlement effected by the bureau of enforcement of the division of markets, according to a report issued today by Dudley Moulton, director of the state department of agriculture.
Mr. Gordon complained to the bureau of enforcement that the check issued by the New State Poultry company came back unpaid.
The bureau took the matter up with Mr. Blanchi and he immediately paid 100 on account, and has just paid the balance to the state, and this later check will be disbursed to Mr. Gordon.
This complaint was made on January 26 and the payment from the commission merchant was received by the state on January 28.
Charles Griffith Seeks City Office
Anaheim's municipal election campaign gained new impetus today with the announcement of Charles E. Griffith, former bank official, that he would seek the office of city clerk.
Griffith is a native of Ohio, who came to Anaheim to accept a position with the Bank of Italy. He remained with that institution after its consolidation with the old First National and later with Transamerica, leaving the banking world to enter the newspaper field with a Los Angeles publication.
Griffith is married and resides at 205 South Ohio street. During his more than seven years in Anaheim he was active in American Legion circles serving Anaheim post as adjutant and finance officer.

The actual money in the possession of all of the people in the United States, including the banks and the Treasury, at the beginning of this year was nine billion four hundred twenty-two million five hundred twelve thousand dollars. Not quite half of that is in gold, and more than half of the rest of it is in Federal Reserve notes. The amount of actual money in circulation is about $45 per person. This is the highest that has ever been in our history, with the exception of the year 1920, when it reached $51 per head.
The idea that the larger volume of money in circulation the more prosperous we are is not borne out by a study of these money figures. When business is active and public confidence in the banks is not shaken, people use comparatively little actual money and federal reserve notes and treasury notes are retired from circulation.

At that time the knight rank will be conferred on a Santa Ana candidate, according to Vanus Eakin's announcement at the meeting Monday night. An open celebration honoring George Washington will be held in Santa Ana February 17, and a meeting for knights only will be held March 1 at Tustin.

Walnut Growers Will Meet at Chino Feb. 13
The Inter-county Walnut Growers' department, under the chairmanship of A. J. McFadden of Santa Ana, will bring a program full of valuable information to walnut growers of southern California at Chino on February 13. The program has been carefully worked out by a representative committee of southern California walnut growers, cooperating with the agricultural extension service. The market outlook for walnuts will be featured.
