IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO
Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter of a Century Ago. These Files Contain The Only Authentic History In Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers
50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK
SEPTEMBER 19, 1885
The completion of the railroad from Los Angeles to Pasadena was celebrated on Wednesday by an excursion to the "Crown of the Valley." Pasadena is an especially favored spot for many reasons. Its people are thoroughly in love with their home. In their estimation their is no other place in the world like it, and their overweening pride of locality evokes a corresponding enthusiasm among visitors. It numbers among its citizens many men of wealth who are continually dividing ways and means of increasing the attractive ness of the village. Although in the main a law-abiding people, it is well known that they have a conveniently located cemetery for the interment (after death by violence) of any malcontent who speaks disparagingly of Pasadena, or who seeks to discourage investors. Pasadena is a live and growing town, with a big future before it. And yet it has not one natural advantage over other places in Southern California which languish and wilt from utter stagnation. The triumph of Pasadena is a triumph of brains.

SEPTEMBER 15, 1910
The Union Oil company has purchased the Emory ranch near Buena Park and will begin sinking wells on the park side of the property. This land lies in line with the Murphy gusher and the company believes it lies in the same basin and that it will be stronger on this side of the ridge. The first well will be put down at once, the foundations for the rig being already upon the ground. Preparations are being made for considerable activity in developing the new property during the next few months, and it is thought it will be a great producing field, equal to the Olinda wells. Should this be the case Buena Park will become a center of activities in the Western part of the county.

Pasadena is a live and growing town, with a big future before it. And yet it has not one natural advantage over other places in Southern California which languish and wilt from utter stagnation. The triumph of Pasadena is a triumph of brains allied to public spirit. The same happy combination will accomplish equally good results in many other places.

Bank Starts New Auto Credit Plan
Announcement of a new credit plan for financing the purchase of new and used automobiles on a low-cost basis was made today by L. M. Giannini, President of Bank of America.
The most novel innovation of the plan is the provision for the issuance of a letter of credit to the prospective automobile purchaser, entitling him to shop for his car as a cash buyer.
"The principles of automobile financing are now sufficiently well established to permit conservative banks to make this service a part of their regular credit facilities," said Giannini.
"The public is entitled to the best possible service and most liberal terms of credit in financing automobile purchases. We are therefore making our Automobile Letter of Credit Plan available to customers and non-customers at all the 425 branches of our bank.
"The procedure of this new type of financing is simple. A prospective purchaser of a new car or used car applies at any of our branches for the Automobile Letter of Credit. Knowing the approximate value of the car he plans to trade in, or the amount of the down payment he wishes to make, it is merely a matter of arithmetic to determine the balance necessary to obtain the car he desires."
An Automobile Letter of Credit is issued for the amount him either at Washington, D.C. or at Santa Ana.
The 1935 Yearbook contains not only a complete summary of the past year's agricultural activities, but many instructive articles by officials of the various divisions of the Department covering new experiments and developments in their particular fields of activity.
Mr. Collins states that he has a limited allotment of this publication which he will distribute without charge so long as his supply lasts. Requests may be directed to JUST THINK—This might be your ad and somebody else reading it the same as you are. Why not try a classified in the Gazette. Just Call 2414. tf45
