HERE'S MORE OF TODAY-TOMORROW By FRANK PARKER STOCKBRIDGE NAMES...nation-wide study What is the commonest name in America? Right—it's Smith. But in Brooklyn, N.Y., and the Borough of the Bronx there are more Cohens than Smiths, and in The Bronx, almost entirely populated by Jews, there are also more people named Schwartz and Miller. A study of the telephone books and city directories of the whole nation has just been made, and shows that the names which appear oftenest are, in order of their frequency, Smith, Johnson, Brown, Williams, Jones, Miller, Davis, Anderson, Wilson and Moore. Smith is a universal name. It means the worker in metals and it is the same whether written Smith, Schmidt or Faber. Johnson is usually Scandinavian in this country, but it is also English and Scotch. The Browns may have started out as Brauns or Le Brun, but are more likely to be of English descent. Williams and Jones are straight Welsh, as the Davises. The Millers are another international family, Mueller and Moullineaux being other spellings. The Andersons and Wilsons are Scotch, of course, and who ever heard of a person named Moore who didn't trace back to the Emerald Isle? PAPER...from the mills Within three miles of my home farm stand the rulls of the mill in which the first woodpulp paper ever manufactured was turned out. A young German engineer came into this papermaking region of the Housatonic Valley in Massachusetts about sixty years ago with an idea that revolutionized the newspaper business and immensely cheapened all kinds of paper. We still make most of the high-grade writing paper, and all the paper on which money is printed, in the mills of Berkshire county.

Do not feel that you need discard a good hat simply because you have grown tired of it, because there are ways of doing things to an old hat that give it an entirely new appearance. Add a new flower or feather fancy. Or, best of all, take off the old band and add a new one with a smart little bow or other device made from ribbon. The all navy blue hat will take on a much more summery appearance if you introduce a contrasting color in the ribbon band. There are charming new reversible ribbons—blue on one side and white on the other, or beige on one side and blue on the other. Or you may use two ribbons of different colors for within three miles of my home farm and the ruins of the mill in which the first woodpulp paper ever manufactured was turned out. A young German engineer came into this paper-making region of the Housatonic Valley in Massachusetts about sixty years ago with an idea that revolutionized the newspaper business and immensely cheapened all kinds of paper. We still make most of the high-grade writing paper, and all the paper on which money is printed, in the mills of Berkshire county. Linen and cotton rags, such as the clippings from the shirt and collar factories in Troy, provide much of the base material for writing papers, but most of the paper on which books are printed and all that is used in newspapers, is made of wood. Canada makes most of it, because Canada still has great spruce forests and we have cut most of ours down. But Dr. Charles A. Herty, famous chemist, has found out how to make white paper from southern pine, and the time will come when the big "newsprint" mills will be in Florida and Georgia instead of in Canada. DEATH ... as a penalty Italy still punishes ordinary murder abolish the death penalty for crime, nearly eighty years ago. Under Mussolini the death penalty was re-established for certain crimes against the government, and two men were executed a few weeks ago, one for trying to kill Mussolini with a bomb. This is sure to stir up discussion again of the effectiveness of capital punishment. We have it in almost every State, but it does not seem to prevent murder. Italy still punishes ordinary murder with only 21 years of prison, but executes those whose acts threaten the sovereignty of the State. I personally think that if anybody is to be legally killed it would be better to inflict the death penalty on those who murder for their personal gain. The American view is—in theory at least—that the safety of the individual is more important than the safety of the Government. SNAILS ... what are they? Many an unsophisticated tourist in France has eaten and enjoyed what the bill-of-fare called "escargots," only to learn afterwards with disgust that he had eaten snails. This popular French delicacy is under discussion in Paris, where the officials are trying to decide whether they are game, fish, or domestic animals. The wild snails of Burgundy are getting scarce, and snail-lovers invoked the game laws to protect them. But, said the logical French functionaries, anything that you pull off a wall with your fingers cannot be "game." One friend of the snail said they might be classified as "horned beasts." Another said they should be grouped with oysters and other shell-fish. L. I., held at San Francisco the first of this week stay in the north.

One should be slightly narrower than the other so that a band of the contrasting color shows at the edges. The sketch shows two ways of making flat bows to use to trim your hat. You can no doubt have them made for you by an expert at the ribbon counter where you buy the ribbon or you can make them yourself. The third trimming device, also made of ribbon, is not at all difficult to copy. Choose ribbon about 1 inch wide, twist it as shown in the sketch and sew down to a small piece of canvas. John D. Rockefeller, now 93 and within 7 years of his ambition to live to 100, says, "During my life depressions have come and gone. Prosperity has always returned—and will again." The wild snails of Burgundy are getting scarce, and snail-lovers invoked the game laws to protect them. But, said the logical French functionaries, anything that you pull off a wall with your fingers cannot be "game." One friend of the snail said they might be classified as "horned beasts." Another said they should be grouped with oysters and other shell-fish. In the meantime, anybody who wants to be sure of getting a dish of snails of the finest, in the best French style of cooking, would better make his trip to France soon, lest the edible varieties become extinct under the pursuit of ruthless hunters! SANDERS ... of the people Like speaker Garner, Everett Sanders, the new chairman of the Republican National Committee, was born in a log cabin. He was a member of Congress from Indiana when President Coolidge made him his secretary. In that job he won from Mr. Coolidge the high praise that he was "a man of great ability and discretion." Sanders started life as a clerk in a shoe store, and sold more shoes than anybody else who ever worked there. Perhaps, his friends say, that is one reason why he understands people from the ground up. STAMPS ... and their value Many readers have written me to ask the value of old stamps in their possession since I wrote something about the prices' some rare stamps bring. I am not an authority on stamps, but experts tell me that the value of any given stamp is what it will bring at auction, where stamp prices are fixed. Most stamp dealers are honest, but one man who sent a very rare stamp to a dealer found himself victimized. The dealer paid him $165 for the stamp, then sold it for $7,500. The original owner sued the dealer and the courts have ordered him to pay the difference. The best way to find out whether an old stamp has value is to send a photograph of it to the American Philatelic Society, Denver. Local happenings Mrs. Fred Backs and her daughter, Miss Florence Backs, who have been sojourning at Long Beach for the past month will return Sunday to their home in this city. Mrs. A. B. McCord who is critically ill at St. Joseph's hospital in Orange where she underwent an operation on Sunday is reported resting as well as can be expected and hopes are expressed for her ultimate recovery. Mrs. Nellie E. Terry returned several days ago from a delightful trip to Alaska and British Columbia. She attended the bi-ennial convention of Federated Women's Clubs in Seattle in June and departed from that city on the 16th, for Dawson and other far northern points. In Atlin, B. C., she met and was entertained by old-time Anaheim friends, cousins of Bob Mills. In Vancouver Mrs. Terry had the pleasure of meeting Mr. and Mrs. Harry Armstrong who a number of years ago resided in Anaheim. Mr. Armstrong was head bookkeeper at Dickel's store for a number of years. Mrs. Terry was away six weeks and enjoyed every minute of her trip to the land of the midnight sun. Miss Frances Backs, a delegate to the recently closed grand institute of Y. L. I., held at San Jose, returned home the first of this week, after a ten-days' stay in the north. Announcement is made by Rev. and Mrs. Frank Hilgenfeld of the engagement of their daughter, Othni Leona Hilgenfeld, now residing in Santa Barbara, to Henry R. Poetker, also of that city. The young couple's marriage will be an event of the fall. From last October until the present, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Ranker have concealed their marriage: Announcement of 4-H Club Girl Champions at White House The four style-review winners in the 4-H Club show at Chicago last year are now enjoying the national tour then awarded and are here shown with President Hoover at the White House.

If one's children go away to school, it is always wise to darn the stockings where the mother is sure to know from experience, that particular child wears the stocking hardest. Darn on Collins Gains More Followers "Sam L. Collins will be our next representative in Congress," is the manner in which Howard Scott, commander of the San Bernardino county council of a prominent ex-service men's organization, expressed himself last week in discussing the candidacy of the Orange County District Attorney for the Republican nomination for Congress. Scott, member of the San Bernardino county republican central committee and widely known as a leader there among the younger progressive element, reported to the Collins headquarters that the Orange county candidate would receive a heavy vote in his county. He said that the positive attitude which Collins has taken against the activities of Communists and reds and pinks of all varieties had made a very favorable impression in San Bernardino county, where there has been considerable difficulty with the radicals. Collins is the only candidate for the Announcement is made by Rev. and Mrs. Frank Hilgenfeld of the engagement of their daughter, Othni Leona Hilgenfeld, now residing in Santa Barbara, to Henry R. Poetker, also of that city. The young couple's marriage will be an event of the fall. From last October until the present, Mr. and Mrs. Joe Ranker have concealed their marriage; Announcement of it came at a beautiful post-nuptial shower given in their honor by Miss Marcella Edwards, of this city. Under the leadership of Miss Helen Grafton, the St. Agnes Guild is staging a two-week tennis tournament. Everyone in the Guild is eligible for the competition. The Misses Kathryn and Martha Adams, daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Adams of this city, have taken a cottage at Laguna Beach for the two weeks starting Aug. 6. They plan to entertain their friends there during the time. When the Olympic games open on Saturday afternoon of this week, there will be many people from this city there. Judging from the talk most current on the streets of Anaheim these days. Many people plan to attend at least some of the water sports to be held in Long Beach. State Divides Motor Car Fees Orange County Will Receive Over $65,000 From State Motor vehicle license fees, collected during the first six months of this year, totaling $5,498,905.58, were apportioned to the Division of Highways and the fifty-eight counties of the state by the Department of Motor Vehicles. This huge sum, representing the monies paid in by the motorists, will be returned to them in the form of good roads, providing employment for thousands of men. One half the funds derived from gasoline taxes. The other half will be divided among the counties according to the number of motor vehicles registered from each. The apportionment is based on fee-paid registrations totaling 1,962,369 divided as follows: Automobiles, 1,805,819; solid trucks, 7,360; pneumatic trucks, 90,685; motorcycles, 7,327; solid trailers, 6,528; pneumatic trailers. Mix with one cup of white sauce, season and spread on a plate to cool. Shape and dip in slightly beaten egg, then in fine bread crumbs, fry in deep fat, using a frying basket. One may add a little lemon juice if one desires when making the croquettes, or may serve quarters of lemon with the finished croquettes. If one's children go away to school, it is always wise to darn the stockings where the mother is sure to know from experience, that particular child wears the stocking hardest. Darn on the wrong side, not allowing the stitches to come through to the right side. If the child is old enough it is wiser to teach him or her to darn stockings. It is no disgrace for a boy to know how to darn. Select cucumbers of equal length half as many as there are persons to be served. Peel them thinly, cut length-wise in two pieces. Scoop out the inside, leaving a firm outside, however. Chop the part removed, with a small slice of onion; a half green pepper, and add enough canned peas to double the chopped mixture. Mix the whole with mayonnaise and refill the cucumber boats. Serve very cold on lettuce leaves. Tea stains are not always readily removed therefore it is wiser to attend to them before the stained article is put into the wash. Try holding the stained part over a large pan or bowl and pouring boiling water from a height until the stain disappears. Or sprinkle with borax and soak. Or if one prefers try soaking in glycerin then washing. If cement is not obtainable and there are mouse holes to be stopped, try this: soaked newspapers in a strong solution of hot water and sal soda, mash or squeeze to a pulp, and fill the hole.

JUDGMENT FOR $10,000 GIVEN Samuel Eckles, who sued the Riutcel-Wethered Furniture Co., for $25,000 damages for injuries said to have been suffered by him when a car belonging to the defendant struck him as he was working along the Brea-Fullerton highway last January, was given a judgment of $10,000 last week in the superior court. ENJOYING A VACATION Lowell Jessen, advertising manager of the Gazette and his wife are Bernardino county republican central committee and widely known as a leader there among the younger progressive element, reported to the Collins headquarters, that the Orange county candidate would receive a heavy vote in his county. He said that the positive attitude which Collins has taken against the activities of Communists and reds and pinks of all varieties had made a very favorable impression in San Bernardino county, where there has been considerable difficulty with the radicals. Collins is the only candidate for the republican nomination who has featured in his campaign that he intends to "smear the communists" in every way possible if he is elected to the lower national house. Scott emphasized. "In times like these the people need young, eager men in Washington who will strike and strike hard for the maintenance of American ideals," said Scott. "We know that Collins is that kind of a man. The people of this district cannot afford to send to congress a man who does not think and act along lines in keeping with the present menacing conditions economically and politically." Scott said.
