Kuchel Editors and Publishers The Anaheim Gazette has been owned and edited by the same family since 1875. Published every Thursday at 259 East Center Street, Anaheim, California.

JOIN THE GARDEN PARADE Lines in that old Negro folksong which all of us love, have been transposed by amateur gardeners the country over, who now chant "Hang up de fiddle and de bow—" as they advance with firm tread upon the fascinating task of wresting their summer provender from Mother Earth. What type of tomatoes are you planting, the Pearson or the Beefsteak? How soon are we to put in our beans? How will we protect our seedling plants from those hungry birds? Will somebody tell me how to dry the surplus sweet corn after we've eaten our fill of "roast'n" ears? These are some of the questions heard on every hand as Anaheim gardeners throw themselves into the lively game of producing foodstuffs. We're fortunate folk here, for not only has nature given us the type of soil that will produce almost any wanted garden vegetable, but the city fathers have cooperated by a sharp reduction in water rates for home gardeners. There are dozens of vacant lots within the city limits, where arrangements can be made for producing flourishing gardens. It has been suggested that groups be formed to take over such plots of ground, and share the expenses of cultivation with a consequent sharing in the proceeds. Anaheim's Victory Garden committee has information about these vacant lots, for Joe Sowder was named to head the group investigating such possibilities. He made a complete list of the lots, their locations and owners, and has the information ready to give anyone that wishes it. The committee will also offer suggestions on the planting of such gardens and such matters as fertilizers, cultivation, irrigating and all the gardening duties that amateurs might find puzzling. Helpful too is the county Farm Bureau which offers leaflets dealing with almost any phase of gardening. So all together now, "Take up de shovel and de hoe" and let's join the parade of the Nation's 18 million Victory Gardeners in 1943. New Dive Bomber Of AAF World's Best NEW YORK—The destructive might of the U. S. Army Air Forces now being felt by the enemy on world-wide fighting fronts, today is being augmented by a new type dive-bomber, said to be more powerful and more deadly than any similar type now in use on either side. Designated the Curtiss A-25, the new plane is an army version of the already famed Curtiss Helldiver now being used by the U. S. Making Yank Soldiers In World Job Of Care The American soldier of today he is also the best informed soldier orientation course—something unthousands upon thousands of soldiers in training a highly compact, interesting, non-propagandized picture of what the war is about. Marking a definite progressive educational step for the army, the orientation course consists of daily 15-minute summaries of the news of the last 24 hours and a series of hour-long war lectures given twice a week to troops in basic training. The news summaries, covering the most important war news in the day, keep officers and enlisted men abreast of the progress of the war. It is recognized as a distinct aid to soldiers who often finish their time so taken up with training in the field that they cannot find time to read newspapers regularly. LECTURE COURSE The lecture phase of the course is designed to cover in more detail every vital aspect of the war. The lectures deal with the make-up and training of the major armies tactics and strategy of the enemies strengths, weaknesses and tricks of the Axis soldier; aims of Axis propaganda; military details of various campaigns, why they won or lost; geography and logistics; battle tactics and graft strategy. Speaking the down-to-ear language of the soldiers, the soldier-lecturers have helped present a clearer picture of why France fell, how the Balkans were taken the importance of Norway, the fighting in Russia, what the Chinese are doing, the strategic importance of the Solomon islands, the British and American campaigns in North Africa.

Brown, 1223 East North street, prominent member of Anaheim Ebell club, was guest speaker at the latest meeting of Seal Beach Woman's club, repeating one of the programs on "Women of the Bible" which have proven so interesting to the local organization's Bible section programs.

Mrs. Brown is Bible literature chairman of Orange County federation of Women's clubs.

Not only has every officer and enlisted man at the big post subscribed for war bonds but in addition, the average investment for the entire field now totals 10 per cent of its payroll. Two-thirds of the Chico squadrons have bettered the 10 per cent goal, one of them setting a high-water mark of 20 per cent of its base payroll deducted monthly for bond purchases.

Fuel Line Problem Solved By Company AKRON, OHIO—Synthetic rubber has solved a major problem in helping to assure the safety of army and navy fliers, officials of the Goodyear Tire & Rubber company have disclosed here. They announced that the company's Chemigum is now being used in the rotors in fuel lines of war planes to show the pilot how fast his fuel is being consumed. This is important, they said, to enable each pilot to balance his rate of usage against his supply. Each rotor is mounted directly in the center of a plane's major fuel line with the center shaft parallel to the flow of the gasoline. The stainless steel shaft of the rotor is covered at each end with a sheath of Chemigum to resist the solvent action of the gasoline, whereas natural rubber would swell and distirt- The Price of Victory TAXES AND WAR BONDS It Takes Both RATION COUPONS Hard To Figure Out? ...
