50 Years Ago February 23, 1888 Don't forget while land is cheap in Anaheim to lay out a public park. It will add to the beauty of the town and be a source of pleasure to future generations. A town that has a well kept park is a source of commendable pride to every one, young and old. It could be made a means of educating, the young in designing and laying out walks with artistic effect. Let's have a park by all means, with a day set apart to plant and care for trees and shrubs. Children only want a chance to develop talent in any given direction to find out their highest capabilities in any direction to make it a success in the lines. Give them a chance. The Santa Ana Standard says: We visited Anaheim Landing on last Sunday for the second time in a year. The country around looks green and nice, and the beach looked charming. The old channel in the bay is washing out deeper all the time, so the fishermen told us, and it may yet come to pass that her ancient glory as a port or landing may be renewed again. The place is a noted summer resort for pleasure, rest and sport, and when the railroad is built there, which is a certainty in the future, we believe it will again be a fine business point. The directors of the Anaheim street car company met on Friday the county supervisors. Eley's plans were submitted in competition with a number of other architects. Following the formal approval of these plans they will be sent to the state board of charities for the approval of that body. The new county hospital will be located on the county poor farm between Orange and Anaheim; three miles south of this city. It will be a two story reinforced concrete structure 48x92 feet. It will have basement and roof garden and will cost about $26,000. One of the largest real estate deals made in Orange County this year was consummated Wednesday when O. E. Elften purchased the 160 acre ranch of Thomas B. Talbert, lying eight miles north of Huntington Beach: Mr. Talbert received $80,000 cash and the Mira Mar apartments at Long Beach. The apartments are valued at $22,500. The consideration in the deal therefore totals $102,-500. The Talbert ranch is situated in the heart of the peat lands and is regarded as excellent celery land. At present it is utilized largely for the growing of beets. Mr. and Mrs. Homer G. Ames entertained the Four Four Club Wednesday evening at their home on North Philadelphia street, when progressive Whist was the feature. Mrs. J. P. Hatzfeld of Santa Ana captured the lady's prize, a perfume bottle of artistic design, and J. W. Wallop walked away with the gentleman's prize, Miss Rose Clabaugh went to Angeles on Wednesday and in afternoon saw the Mission plaza San Gabriel, returning to this in the evening. J. S. Howard and family danced to Huntington Beach on Sunday and spent the day with frigno. Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Hatfield left this week for a visit to San Francisco.

The directors of the Anaheim street car company met on Friday when the following report was submitted: We, your committee appointed to investigate the books of the Anaheim street car company, beg to report that after a careful and laborious search of the same we find them correct and gave up the job in disgust.

He thinks she is a stenographer and they discuss her program most impersonally. Carlton KaDell thought some fan had mistaken him for Ken Carpenter when he found a box marked "chimes" on his door-step, but it developed they were a fan gift for the door of his newly-built Beverly Hills home. Several weeks ago the Andrews Sisters, singing trio, were earning $200 a week. Now—thanks to their highly original version of "Bei Mir Bist Du Schoen"—the girls have a Sunday CBS program and earn five times that amount. Margaret Shanna, lovely star of "Arnold Grimm's Daughter," believes she is jinxed. A few weeks ago she slipped on an leey pavement and had to work on crutches for three days. She slipped again shortly after and found herself on crutches once more. She thought her woes had ended, but an acute attack of appendicitis necessitated an operation. Now she's hoping that the jinx has been finally banished. John Conte, probably the youngest announcer in big-time radio, enjoys the distinction of having been signed by Burns and Allen for a long-term contract without the customarily required audition. Mark Warnow, "We, The People" music director, makes a hobby of finding musical cues appropriate to the adventures and professions of persons appearing on the Gabriel Heatter Thursday night CBS air show. Mary Margaret McBride still says "tomato," "eether" and "apricot" with a long "a." It gives a distinct pain to this Missouri girl to hear folks saying "Pahk avenyoo" and "N'Yawk."

Carter was a vaudeville dancer and never had a singing lesson until a year and a half ago. The musicians' union in Hollywood has just put the seal of authority on the bazooka by giving Bob Burns a union card, official recognition that the noise-maker, heard on the Thursday night Music Hall, is a musical instrument. Kate Smith never misses buying a bag of chestnuts from the old Italian on the corner near her office on Lucille Ball is Phil Baker's attractive heckler in his Sunday broadcasts over CBS. Lucille doubles between the CBS studios and the RKO lot where she is busy with pictures. Wool Production in State Highly Varied In its production of wool, California lives up to its reputation of producing many kinds and varieties of a crop, reports James F. Wilson, professor of animal husbandry at the college of agriculture of the University of California, in a recent study made of the industry. The state, he says, is one of the leaders in wool production in the nation, but its "clip" is the most variegated because of the wide range of altitude, climate, and soils. Every county produces some wool, but 60 per cent of it is grown in the great central valleys. The "clip" is predominately fine wool. Chief Cato Raps Warn-Out Tires Chief E. Raymond Cato of the California highway patrol today condemned old and worn-out tires as being the frequent causes of serious automobile accidents.

"Scores of officers in the patrol have witnessed accidents directly attributable to poor tires and, on the basis of reports from these officers, I earnestly warn all motorists to watch the rubber on their machines.

Jessup, president of the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching, in the institution's thirty-second annual report, recently. "We are familiar," said Dr. Jessup, "with the inducements offered to promising athletes; but we may be astonished that drum majors and tuba players now find themselves possessed of special talents with a marketable value in the college field." He praised educational institutions that select students best adapted to their particular programs; but he deplored the evil thread which runs through the fabric of recruitment devices" tending to exploit the student. "Jobs and scholarships are dangled before the eyes of impecunious high school pupils," he noted. "Fraternities and sororities vie in recruiting students who can pay their bills and bring glory (in press notices) to a chapter." Pressure upon college officials to maintain large enrollments, on the ground that a slump in numbers affects institutional morale adversely, is at the root of much competitive practice, Dr. Jessup indicated. "No college can be free from the necessity of competing with other institutions," he continued. "The means adopted have perforce included some consideration of the relation of the college to the general public; for the typical college, beset on every hand with competition, must vie with its neighbors for public approval." In consequence, it has adopted Total resources of the foundation on June 30 were $28,843,010, upon which the investment return was 4.29 per cent, as compared with 4.25 per cent for the preceding year.

No college can be free from the necessity of competing with other institutions," he continued. "The means adopted have perforce included some consideration of the relation of the college to the general public; for the typical college, beset on every hand with competition, must vie with its neighbors for public approval. In consequence, it has adopted devices common to other competitive social and economic enterprises. It has employed publicity agents; it has pressed its alumni into service as recruiting officers; it has issued neat and none too modest printed matter to attract students; its 'follow-up' system often is very efficient indeed, and it has deemed itself forced to do these things by a feeling that it must struggle if it is to survive and go forward." Grants amounting to $106,700 for 21 special research projects in education were made to American and Canadian colleges in the fiscal year ending June 30, 1937, the report showed. The foundation's income for the year was $1,318,419. Disbursements included $1,999,558 for retiring allowances and for widow's pensions; and $91,816 for studies conducted by the division of educational inquiry.

And again the for an emergency radio broadcast featuring Sunkist Navels. This program is heard every weekday morning from eleven powerful AGAIN the California-Arizona citrus industry must market a superabundant crop in the face of uncertain economic conditions. And again the Exchange is the only organization prepared to attack the problem from both directions. Under the marketing agreement, the industry is doing about all that can be done to keep supply in line with existing demand. But this is not enough if maximum returns are to be received. Demand must also be increased, and, as usual, the Exchange is doing the job with its greatest Sunkist advertising campaign. Funds for advertising are raised by a box assessment. Thus larger sums are always available to sell larger crops. This year an extra assessment was voted for an emergency radio broadcast featuring Sunkist Navels. This program is heard every weekday morning from eleven powerful stations in the most important markets of eastern United States and Canada. It has listeners in twenty-seven states and several provinces. It brings a vast new audience within the scope of Exchange advertising. More people than ever are being told of the extra quality and value in the current crop of Sunkist fruit, through newspapers, magazines, outdoor and street car advertising. The entire industry benefits. But Exchange members benefit most because of the preference built for the advertised Sunkist brand. If you are a citrus grower, the Exchange's selling program is your program. You should have a part in it. CALIFORNIA FRUIT GROWERS EXCHANGE A non-profit, cooperative organization of over 14,000 California and Arizona citrus growers, marketers of the world's most famous brand of fresh fruits:
