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 Nov. 1, 1888 Figures taken from the Great Register show the wonderful growth of the various localities in this district during the past four years. Santa Ana shows a truly imperial growth and leads off with 1200 votes, an increase of about 175 per cent in the last four years. Anaheim has a total vote of 430, an increase of 115 in two years. The total vote of Los Angeles county is 30,336 and of this district (the Fifth Supervisorial) 2,847, and the increase in this district alone is 1.403 which is eminently satisfactory. The development of our section is still in its primary stage and if indications avail aught, they warrant the prediction that the vote of our township will press one thousand within the next two years. The average voter may have some difficulty in preparing his ticket for local officers. Messrs. Frank Moore, B. J. Snodgrass and H. L. Paty (present incumbent) are aspirants for Road Overseer in this district. Judge Pierce, A. E. White and George Amerige of Fullerton are aspirants for Township Justice.

Wamboldt, above, producer of the NBC "Public Hero Number One" series, originated the idea of presenting the policeman's side of crime stories in radio dramatizations. Until he wrote "Truth Serum" for an NBC coast-to-coast broadcast in 1931, radio crime dramas had glorified the criminal.

The reason is simple. Besides the direct cost there are indirect costs the average housewife never takes the trouble to carry down to a weekly basis. Any way you look at it, your washing cannot be done in the home as clean and white and sterile, for a single penny less than the laundry charge. Every year thousands of housewives check their costs and decide—Home is no place for the Family Washing.
