Sales Tax Shows Drop Last Year Statistics on sales tax revenue for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1938, recently released by the state board of equalization, show total returns of $83,995,191.55, compared with $85,667,081.94 for the preceding year, a decrease of $1,671,890.39 or 1.9 per cent. The "recession" which business in general suffered during the first half of 1938 is seen by William G. Bonelli, board member from the fourth district, as a major factor in decrease of sales tax revenue.

Giant Aqueduct Nearly 60 Per Cent Completed That actual delivery of Colorado river water to Los Angeles and 12 other southern California cities rapidly is nearing a reality was revealed this week in a Metropolitan Water district report stating that more than 60 per cent of the distribution system of the giant Metropolitan aqueduct is now completed.

The grid gigantic will be sponsored by the California Federated Church committee, proceeds going to the many worthwhile projects of that all-denomination body, including a number of boys camps up and down the state for underprivileged boys. Experts Talk on Orchard Heating Demonstration Given Friday Evening at Tustin by Authorities Regulate orchard heaters after firing; don't let them belch for unnecessary smoke and consume excessive fuel. Orange county orchards are large equipped with modern heaters as compared with other areas of southern California but a few orchards have antiquated equipment that can be re-modeled at conservative cost to reduce their smokiness. Clean heater stacks after ten hours of burning. Have at least three nights storage of fuel available for emergencies. These are some of the precautions offered 250 citrus growers from all parts of Orange county who were shown practical methods of handling orchard heaters to save fuel consumption and reduce smokiness at the demonstration last Friday night at Tustin. The demonstration was conducted by Farm Advisor Harold E. Wahberg and specialists from the experiment station and weather bureau and B. J. McReynolds, manager of the Mabury orchards. TABASCO THE SAUCE SUPREME — Around the Clock — MORNING With your breakfast eggs. A few drops of Tabasco make a good egg better. NOON McReynolds showed the group how he has rebuilt 2,000 heaters on the ranch as a matter of fuel economy and to conform to public reaction for less smoke. He said the grower using heaters can safely regulate his heaters by proper follow-up after lighting either manually or by automatic regulators, which he demonstrated. TABASCO THE SAUCE SUPREME — Around the Clock — MORNING With your breakfast eggs. A few drops of Tabasco make a good egg better. NOON A drop or two of Tabasco on a buttered cracker is a delightful appetizer. NIGHT Add a tang to salad dressings, soups, gravies, or meats with a few drops of Tabasco — the Snappiest Seasoning Known. MC ILHENNY COMPANY Avery Island Louisiana TABASCO is used and recommended at the Cooking School RIGHT OUT OF THE AIR BY EARLE FERRIS His hobby interfered with his work—so Eugene Conley gave up the job! This man-bites-dog solution of the familiar problem of finding time both for making a living and for riding a hobby proved to be, oddly enough, one of the most profitable decisions he ever made. Several years ago, Eugene was clerkking for a Lynn, Mass., electric company and tenoring for fun on Sundays with a church quartet. One time when the group made a guest appearance on a Boston station and Eugene did a solo, he made such a personal hit that his services as a tenor became increasingly in demand for radio work. Eventually he had so many offers to sing on the air which he couldn't accept because his clerk's job interfered, that he gave up the latter and became a full-time tenor. Now he's headed for big things with three weekly programs via NBC! Production problem of the year was the matter of presenting Dopey in Radio Theatre's Christmas production of "Snow White." In the movie Dopey was purely visual, the dwarf who never said a word. Radio Theatre solved it by having Dopey McReynolds showed the ground how he has rebuilt 2,000 heaters on the ranch as a matter of fuel economy and to conform to public reaction for less smoke. He said the grower using heaters can safely regulate his heaters by proper follow-up after lighting either manually or by automatic regulators, which he demonstrated. Old types of heaters were shown by W. R. Schoonover and simple changes made on them to improve their efficiency. Harold Rathbone, weather bureau observer, explained the use of the fruit thermometer as means of reducing the number of hours of firing and economizing fuel consumption. Questioned about the possibility of a major freeze, Rathbone said the best answer to be prepared. It was pointed out that defoliation of trees due to the recent wind has made the tree and fruit more susceptible to frost conditions. Alleged Bad Check Writer Faces Trials Trial of John Gilkyson, 42, Sunset Beach, on a charge of issuing worthless check to Albert Miller of Anaheim, has been set for December 20 in Anaheim justice court. Gilkyson pleaded not guilty when arraigned yesterday before Justice of the Peace Charles Kuchi ei. He is being held in the county jail in lieu of $500 bail. Tell the Merchant you read him Ad in The Gazette. 195,000 Californians can tell you how to have cash mand for radio work. Eventually he had so many offers to sing on the air which he couldn't accept because his clerk's job interfered, that he gave up the latter and became a full-time tenor. Now he's headed for big things with three weekly programs via NBC! Production problem of the year was the matter of presenting Dopey in Radio Theatre's Christmas production of "Snow White." In the movie Dopey was purely visual, the dwarf who never said a word. Radio Theatre solved it by having Dopey wear a bell around his neck which tinkled every time he was in a scene. Pretty Claire Trevor, pictured here, is one lady who concedes the last word to her husband. Claire, who is Edward G. Robinson's leading lady in the CBS dramatic show, "Big Town," is married to Clark Andrews, producer of the program. Greak Oaks From Tiny Acorns Department;—Olan Soule broke into show business at 16, playing a week's engagement in an obscure vaudeville house. Billed as "Reggie Van—Singing and Dancing Bits," Olan followed the inevitable acrobats on the program. Now he's one of Chicago's most popular radio actors, heard in four weekly series. Lucille Manners, above, soprano star of the Friday night NBC concert hour, has again been selected Chairman of the Radio Committee of the New York Tuberculosis and Health Association. Lucille numbers Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt and many other notables among her customers for Christmas Seals. "The perfect musical host"—that's what both critics and fans call Orrin Tucker, popular bandmaster who features the unique "conversational music" which is his own invention. This toe-tingling but polite style of playing won't disturb talking yet it is rhythmic enough for dancing and melodious enough for good listening. Billy House's CBS program can claim to be the largest on the air in more ways than one. Three-hundred-pound House is the biggest Favorite costume of Bing Crosby is the "outboard" shirt which he wears in the picture above. He discovered them in Hawaii two years ago and always wears one to rehearsal for the Thursday night Music Hall show. It's made of all brightly colored with tropical flowers.
