Engagement News Is Revealed In Romantic Manner No less a personage than Dan Cupid himself, made a pre-Valentine day call last Thursday evening, in the Robert Stetson home in Arcadia, to announce the betrothal of Miss Fredda Sawtelle, former Cypress teacher, and Chief Petty Officer Robert Ford Carr of San Diego. Small Bobby Stetson, three-year-old son of the home, played Cupid's role, and carried a big valentine heart on which the romantic news was inscribed and to which was attached Miss Sawtell’s beautiful engagement ring. Guests found romance suggested by the games program, including a heart hunt in which Miss Mildred Remland scored, and a song title romance in which Miss Freda Leusinger was prize winner. Indian bridge was the final game introduced, with Miss Jean McDowell taking first honors and Miss Dorothy Baker consoled. The refreshment interval which followed, continued the valentine theme in its details, including the prettily decorated buffet table from which the dainties were Children Benefit By Requarth Will Filed for probate in Orange county superior court was the will of the late Hernan Requarth, whose death occurred on February 8 at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Guy W. Holman, 208 South Philadelphia street. His eight children will receive equal shares of the $10,000 estate. Miss Sawtelle, who is the daughter of the Fred Sawtelles of Route 1, graduated from University of Redlands after completing Anaheim Union high school. She taught in the Cypress schools and this year is teaching in First Avenue school, Arcadia. Her fiance, the son of Mr. and Mrs. R. L. Carr of Sacramento, is an alumnus of Washington State University. Among announcement party guests from this area in addition to Mrs. Sawtelle, were Mrs. Irene Stewart and the Misses Lois Sturgeon, Dorothy Baker and Lucille Jermaux, Cypress teachers; Mrs. John Cok and the Misses Mildred Remland and Helen Eckert of this city. BUY VICTORY BONDS AND WAR STAMPS! Potato and Bean Increase Asked Of County Farms A call for more dry beans and potatoes from Orange county farms to meet revised food requirements of America and other United Nations has been issued by Ransler J. Baker, chairman of the County USDA Water Board and AAA committee. New government program offering AAA payments and price support to growers who increase production of these two important crops has been announced by the Department of Agriculture. “Beans and potatoes have become important because of their high food value in proportion to the land and labor enlisted in producing them,” Baker explained. “Orange county growers who are equipped to produce either crop will find it both patriotic and profitable to do so.” Orange county’s share of newly stepped-up national goal is 40,000 acres of beans (dry) and 200 acres of potatoes. Chairman Baker explained that goals represent a minimum rather than maximum, as the two crops can be used in practically unlimited quantities. To make it possible for farmers to increase production, prices of potatoes will be supported at per cent parity and payments of 50 cents per bushel, based on the normal yield of the farm, will be paid for each acre planted after February 1 in excess of 90 percent of the farm goal established by the county AAA committee, to 110 per cent of the goal. Bean prices will be supported at $5.60 per hundredweight, and payable Britain "delivered the goods" FOR THESE... HART SCHAFFNER & MARX SUITS EDWARD KELLY, well known rancher of the community, died February 9th in Fullerton General Hospital at the age of 82. Born Ireland in 1861, he came to the country 70 years ago, and lived in Anaheim for the past half century. Rosary was recited in the Bacch Campbell and Kaulbars chapel and funeral mass was held Thursday morning in St. Boniface church. Burial was made in the family plot in Calvary cemetery Los Angeles, by the side of the wife who preceded him in death by two years. Mr. Kelly left two daughters and three sons, Mrs. Hazel Campbell of Cypress, Miss Minne Kelly, Joe and Lawrence Kelly all of this city and William Keen of Huntington Beach, together with one grandchild. CHARLES W. LUEDTKE, resident of Anaheim for the past two years, died last week at Joseph hospital. He was born ... and, this spring, the fancier—and livelier—the better as fas as men's clothes are concerned! For patterns and shadings, for any and all occasions, are brighter and more colorful this spring than they have been in years. But particularly is this true of the sport-coat-and-slack picture. So we had Hart Schaffner & Marx tailor the wealth of 1943 ideas in colors, patterns and fabrics into sports clothing as new as your morning paper, and as fresh as your morning milk—but it hasn't the slightest appearance of being race-track stuff! We've just receivel a shipment of these good-looking Hart Schaffner & Marx sport coats and slacks and they're really something new for under the sun. They're made, of course, as good coats and slacks should be made by regular tailors who know how to create and needle fine clothing! $43.50 Others $35.00 and up YUNGBLUTH'S 145 West Center Street Anaheim, Calif.

This would stop mixing good and bad qualities together and sending them to the market. Also the man who produces good articles should be protected. This system could be applied to any line of production and would stimulate trade. Take tomatoes for instance. If the grower put both good and bad together indiscriminately, and the juice was extracted from the mixed lot and sold to the dear public, that would be an injustice. Also the poor juice resulting might cause illness. The minimum price for grade A oranges would be a tremendous benefit to orange growers who now get about one dollar a box, whereas they should get $2.50 per box for the grade A quality.
