Attorney Warton was born on a farm near Superior, Nebraska, August 28, 1890, where he resided until after the World War. He finished High School at Superior, Nebraska and Chicago; was first licensed to practice law twenty years ago and has followed that vocation ever since. He served as a private in the 355th Infantry in France; was commissioned as a reserve officer following discharge, and now holds a commission of Major in the Judge Advocate General's Department of the U. S. Army Reserve Corps without pay, except when in service. Attorney Warton came to Orange County in 1924, since which time he has lived for the most part in North Orange County, and for the past several years has been successfully practicing law at Anaheim. Inasmuch as an Assemblyman is a Law Maker, an attorney with years of experience should be most qualified for the office. State Fair Set To Make Record California's state fair is out for a record.

State Fair Set To Make Record California's state fair is out for a record. Response by exhibitors and inquiries from every section of the state indicate attendance will push the half million mark.

Miller, Fontana, arranged the final stage work for the exposition in Sacramento this week. Color will be a keynote of the grand old 10-day fiesta. The grounds have been beautified. The biggest horse card since Secretary Charles W. Paine became connected with the fair in 1991 is assured. The horse show, always a feature, has been made even better for 1936. There will be more and greater livestock displays than usual. The farm machinery show is expected to be one of the best. The 4-H and Future Farmer groups are planning greater demonstrations. A $6,000 fireworks program has been scheduled. And there will be plenty of money for winners. Prizes, trophies, purses and awards total more than $145,000 or approximately $10,000 more than were offered in 1935. The amateur contest, drawing talent from every area of the state, is destined to be the biggest affair of its kind ever to be staged on the Pacific coast. Prizes valued at thousands of dollars are offered. Excursion rates to the fair by air, water, train, and highway are programmed. Premium books, just off the press, can be obtained from Secretary Paine. AWNINGS MADE Every Description Re-upholstering of Distinction Craftsmanship Guaranteed S. T. Hammond Co.
