SERVICE AND SUCCESS Here are the advertisements of an automobile company, one of greatest in the world. And why is it greatest? On its huge factories and financial strength? They are never mentioned. On its army of workmen or its high salaried executives? You might read its advertisements for years without suspecting that it had either. No. "We are great because of our service," the advertisements cry. "We will crawl under your car oftener and get our backs dirtier than any of our competitors. Drive up to our service stations and ask for anything at all—it will be granted cheerfully. We serve; therefore we grow." A manufacturer of shoes makes the same boast in other terms. "We put ourselves at your feet and give you everything that you can possibly demand." Manufacturers of building equipment, of clothes, of food—all of them tell the same story. "Service is what we are here for," they exclaim. They call it the "spirit of modern business"; they suppose, most of them, that it is something very new. But Jesus preached it more than nineteen hundred years ago. One afternoon in a Pullman car the late George W. Perkins was talking about the reasons why men succeed and fail. "I am amazed by some of the young men who ask me to use my influence to get them better positions or increases in salary," he said. "Such an attitude on their part shows an absolute failure to understand the fundamentals of success. In all the years that I was in business I never once asked what my salary was to be, or my title. None of us who made that Company ever wasted time over such questions. We had a vision of extending the Company's service throughout the world." That sounds sensible—good business sense. But how does this sound? "If you're forever thinking about saving your life," Jesus said, "you'll lose it; but the man who loses his life shall find it." Because he said it and he was a religious teacher, because it's printed in the Bible, the world has dismissed it as high minded ethics but not hard headed sense. But look again! What did Perkins mean if it wasn't that he and his friends buried themselves in their great undertaking, literally lost their lives in it? And when they found their lives again, they were all of them bigger and richer than they had ever supposed they would be. Would such success have come to them if they had been careful about themselves? "We mustn't overdo this thing," they might have said. "This is a good company and deserves to grow, but every man must look out for his own interests. Just what is there going to be in it for us?" With such attitude they might have moved up to well-paid positions: but never to outstanding success! Next Week: That Second Mile Copyright, Bobbs-Merrill Co. ANAHEIM GAZETTE Also, No Taxes Otto H.

Noted Bucker On Fiesta Program PLAN EXPOSITION There's no limit to what 4-H club members can do with proper leadership and purpose. The membership in Muskegon county, Mich., has tackled the staging of a great junior exposition late in August to be held in Muskegon. It is a county-wide enterprise and aimed to weld club members more closely together for the good of all the rural boys and girls in the section. There are probably only about one-third of the rural youth in the county enrolled in clubs who are eligible. The labors incident to staging the show and the after results are sure to bring more boys and girls under 4-H influence. Starting off the project, which has been carefully planned by County Agent Carl Knopf and extension people cooperating with him, a group of club members is working under the direction of a coach to prepare for the presentation of a play called "Sound Your Horn." This play will be given in six different districts of the county with a nominal admission prize. Proceeds will be used to defray some of the expenses of setting up the exposition. A novel way has been devised of advertising the play. It is to be done mostly by posters which are to be made by club members as a part of their handicraft projects. At each of the shows a small prize is to be given the originator of the best poster. Then from the best local poster a county prize winner is to be chosen, for which a more pretentious prize will be given. The exposition will be devoted to displaying the best products of 4-H club members in the county. Club members declare it will open the eyes of the public to what is being produced to make the homes and farms of the county better and more profitable places for their owners. The scope of Two-thirds Forest Fires Man-caused Cooperation of Motorists and Campers Sought to Hold Down Loss With the advent of the forest fire danger period emphasized by the outbreak of the first big fire in the state this year in the Monterey division of the Santa Barbara National Forest, cooperation of motorists and campers in holding down the percentage of man-caused fires is urged. Of a total of 3,373 forest fires in California last year, 2,681 were man-caused, the remainder being due to lightning. Careless smokers were responsible for 999 fires and 750 fires were set in incendiaries. The total acreage burned over was 480,855, resulting in damage to grazing and timber land estimated at $760,000. An incalculable amount of damage was represented by the charm to watershed areas and the destruction or scenic values, and fish and game. Smoking has been prohibited in all national forests in California except at camps and places of habitation or at "flag stations" established along trails and roads, under an order issued by S. B. Show, regional forester. All members of automobile and pack train parties camping in the national forests are being urged to remember that camp fire permits must be obtained and that those receiving permits must include a shovel and ax of specified dimensions in their camping equipment. Camp fire permits are issued free. According to forest service officials, prospects of a season unusually free from forest fires are good provided public cooperation is extended in the observance of fire prevention regulations. It is pointed out that there are available for fire-fighting duty in the forests of the state this year 36,500 men... Noted Bucker On Fiesta Program Bad News For Broncho Busters Is Good News for Rodeo Patrons Saturday Bad news for cowboys but good news for rodeo fans was revealed with an announcement by Fiesta del Oro rodeo Manager Ralph McCutcheon that "Tumbleweed," world famous "bad" bucking horse will have to be ridden by the winner of the buckling contests in the rodeo in Santa Ana Stadium.

President Urges Children’s Safety President Roosevelt heartily endorsed the school traffic patrol movement in a recent communication in which he stressed the importance of the patrols in the protection of school children against accidents. The President's statement was occasioned by a safety parade in Wash- made by club members as a part of their handicraft projects. At each of the shows a small prize is to be given the originator of the best poster. Then from the best local poster a county prize winner is to be chosen, for which a more pretentious prize will be given. The exposition will be devoted to displaying the best products of 4-H club members in the county. Club members declare it will open the eyes of the public to what is being produced to make the homes and farms of the county better and more profitable places for their owners. The scope of the show can be seen when it may take in products of some 50 more projects ranging from a fat baby beef to a suite of old furniture made over. Win Fellowships An Iowa school teacher and a New York county club agent will spend most of a year in Washington, D.C., studying the services of the government for agriculture by reason of having been outstanding in 4-H club work in their eligible years. The school teacher is Miss Esther M. Friesth of Elkhart, Iowa. The club agent is Barnard Joy of Ulster county, N.Y. They are winners of fellowships awarded by the Payne Fund of New York City. These are given annually to a boy and girl who have high records as club members, who have been graduated from a state agricultural college and are engaged in work related to 4-H training. The award last year went to Geo. W. Harris of Carroll county, Ky., and Margaret Latimer of Lyman county, S. D. The year before they went to Andy Colebank of Shely county, Tenn., and Mary Todd of Clarke County, Ga. Mr. Joy, this year selection, carried on 4-H projects five years previous to entering Oregon State College from which he was graduated took up club work. Miss Friesth grew up on a Humboldt county, Iowa, farm, and was in 4-H club work four years, being graduated at Iowa State College. Booklet To Aid Forest Workers 36,500 C. C. C.

C. boys in the 167 conservation camps in California, some 20,000 of whom come from Middle West and southern cities and have never before been in the mountains or forests, the U.S. forest service headquarters at San Francisco has issued an eight-page leaflet entitled "Woodsmanship for Emergency Conservation Workers."

The President's statement was occasioned by a safety parade in Washington in which 4,000 boys participated, representing patrol organizations from various nearby states and the District of Columbia. Safety patrols are not only established throughout the United States, but in numerous communities in Southern California these patrols, organized as school safety committees under the sponsorship of boards of education, and parent-teachers associations, are credited with having contributed materially to the safety of school children in this section. Ad Stunts Rapped By Business Men Because discussion of advertising stunts brought in by outside promoters became so hot that it occupied the entire meeting, election of officers for the Merchants and Manufacturers' association was postponed for two weeks. The meeting was held late last week at the Marigold cafe banquet room. Secretary George W. Reid explained to merchants that a committee meets in secret with promoters. If the committee doesn't feel the promotion is worthy of sponsoring, the chamber of commerce refuses to issue letters. If merchants then sponsor it, they do so upon their own responsibility. Many merchants expressed the view that many advertising stunts arranged in Anaheim had only succeeded in cheapening the city and its mercantile establishments, instead of promoting good will and trade. ZION, BRYCE ROADS EXCELLENT Motorists traveling from Los Angeles to Zion and Bryce National Parks, located in southern Utah, will find the roads in splendid shape. To make good woodsmen out of the 36,500 C. C. C. boys in the 167 conservation camps in California, some 20,000 of whom come from Middle West and southern cities and have never before been in the mountains or forests, the U. S. forest service headquarters at San Francisco has issued an eight-page leaflet entitled "Woodsmanship for Emergency Conservation Workers." Besides describing the traits of a good woodsman, who is always careful with fire, and uses but does not destroy forest resources, the leaflet tells of the real and fancied dangers of the woods. Contrary to general opinion, these are not the wild beasts and the snakes, but the little things such as poisonous plants and insects. Advice is given for the treatment of these troubles as well as first aid in case of snake bite and what to do when lost. Real sources of accidents caused by the inexperienced use of woodsman's tools are covered by a detailed description of the use and care of most of the tools handled by the C. C. C. men. The words "reforestation," "conservation" and "forestry," so commonly used in connection with the president's emergency conservation program, are defined, and finally it is shown how the various activities of the C. C. C. men are tied in with forest conservation and the national welfare. 4-H Club Members Picnic Saturday The annual beach party of the Orange county 4-H clubs is to be held at the San Clemente beach on Saturday, June 29, according to Eric E. Eastman, assistant farm advisor. The several clubs will proceed directly to the San Clemente Beach club, where street clothes may be changed for swimming suits.

Gasoline Tax In June Shows Loss The gasoline tax for June in California showed a 17.6 per cent loss over the same month in 1932. it was announced recently by John C. Corbett, member of the state board of equalization. The loss is explained. Corbett said through the fact that the federal government on June 21, 1932 imposed a tax on gasoline.

The loss is explained. Corbett said through the fact that the federal government on June 21, 1932 imposed a tax on gasoline. For the first three weeks of June in 1932, huge stores of gasoline were accumulated by purchasers to avoid the one cent federal levy. These purchases resulted in an abnormal sale during June of last year. Distributions for last month totaled 125,205,058 gallons; the tax on this gallonage being $3,718,590. In June 1932, a tax of $4,517,467 was collected from gasoline sales.
