COLONY QUIPS Some weeks ago Frank D. Carr of Des Moines, Iowa, spent some time in our fair city visiting his daughter and son-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur Bonney. Mr. Carr looks like a man in his middle fifties, acts like a man in his thirties, and has more fun out of life than a boy in his teens. He is state agent for a large insurance company, a position he has held for almost fifty years. While here he asked us how old we thought he was and we made what we thought was a good guess—it was bad. Mr. Carr sent us the following bit of philosophy titled, 'How Old Am I,' we pass it along as something well worth while to young and old alike: It has been said that few people know how to be old, but no wise man ever wished to be younger. There are many wise and inspiring thoughts for both young and old in the following paragraphs: "I am young enough to have joys and sorrows, deep longings and high dreams, and many, many problems, and old enough to know there is a cause for every joy, a cure for every sorrow, a solution to every problem, and a fulfillment for every aspiration. "I am young enough to desire success, and old enough to know that it can never be attained at the cost of health or character. "I am young enough to want money, and old enough to know" VOLUME LXXVII ANAH Outline Year-Round Recreation Program For Anaheim on Tuesday Anaheim's master plan for year-round recreation discussed as local officials, interested citizens and leaders met with prominent state officials Tuesday noon afternoon at the Anaheim Elks club.

"I am young enough to have joys and sorrows, deep longings and high dreams, and many, many problems, and old enough to know there is a cause for every joy, a cure for every sorrow, a solution to every problem, and a fulfillment for every aspiration. "I am young enough to desire success, and old enough to know that it can never be attained at the cost of health or character. "I am young enough to want money, and old enough to know that true wealth consists not in the abundance of things one possesses. "I am young enough to covet fame, and old enough to know that better than fame is the joy of spending oneself in self-forgetful, loving service. "I am young enough to enjoy a good time, and old enough to know that one cannot have a good time if pleasure-seeking is put first in life. "I am young enough to be intensely enthusiastic about people and things, and old enough not to let any enthusiasm run away with me. "I am young enough to love to play, and old enough to have learned that the most fun is having a hard task and seeing it bravely through. "I am young enough to want to be beautiful, and old enough to know that true beauty is from within. "I am young enough to seek far and wide for Truth, and old enough to know that I most often find it in being faithful to the task in hand. "I am young enough to make many mistakes, and old enough to learn the lesson, forget the experience, and pass on to better things. "I am young enough to dread sorrow, pain, and misfortune, and old enough to be grateful for their chastening, mellowing influence. "I am young enough to yearn for happiness, and old enough to know that it tarries longest with us when we seek it least. "I am young enough to crave true friends, and old enough to appreciate them when I find them. "I am young enough to believe in the goodness of the human heart, and old enough to keep that faith regardless of some disillusionments." "I am young enough to know love, and old enough to realize it is the most priceless possession of life. "I am young enough to have simple faith in God in His goodness." "I am young enough to crave true friends, and old enough to appreciate them when I find them. "I am young enough to believe in the goodness of the human heart, and old enough to keep that faith regardless of some disillusionments." "I am young enough to know love, and old enough to realize it is the most priceless possession of life. "I am young enough to have simple faith in God, in His goodness, in His loving care over me, in His wise and beautiful plan for my life, and old enough to value this faith as the thing that gives life purpose and makes it well worth living." Sincerely yours, FRANK D. CARR Announce New Hour For Farm News Broadcast The Agricultural Extension Service this week announced a new hour for its daily broadcast of farm news over station KVOE. The new time will be 12:15 p.m. instead of 12:30 p.m. as heretofore. Beginning Monday, Mrs. Marian Prentiss, home demonstration agent, will discuss progress plan. The Agricultural Extension Serming for 1948-49; W. M. Cory, assistant farm advisor, will discuss use of DDT by the livestock industry on Tuesday; for Wednesday's program R... E. Puffer, assistant farm advisor, will offer his answer to the question "When should citrus be irrigated?" Miss Robin Burr, assistant home demonstration agent, will discuss 4-H clothing club of the month, and Friday Harold E. Wahlberg, farm advisor, will tell what it costs to produce Valencias. The California palace of the Legion of Honor was built and given to the city of San Francisco in 1924 by Adolph B. Spreckels. Threats of a railway strike caused heavier than usual buying of oranges and lemons at higher prices Monday. The market fell somewhat Tuesday with the strike called off, at least temporarily, but not below the gains scored the previous week. The orange market last week absorbed a somewhat smaller volume of fruit than in the corresponding week last year and at a somewhat lower price. But prospects were good enough to cause the Orange Administrative committee to advance the prorate for southern California Valencias from the 200 of the present week to 600 cars next week. The fob average last week was about $3.66 a box which was about 10 cents a box higher than the fob average of the preceding week. For the corresponding week a year ago it was $3.76, in 1946, $4.64 and in 1945, $4.36. Because of their higher color and sweeter flavor, California navels will have the buyer preference over Valencias as long as they last, but prospects this week were they would not last long. It was estimated there would not be more than 150 cars in California after this week. Last week's offerings ran to pretty good sizes. Southern California navels averaged 33 per cent 252s and smaller; central California Valencias, 28 per cent; Arizona Valencias, 22 per cent; and Florida Valencias, 13 per cent. In spite of continued cool weather throughout most of the country, the lemon market continued strong and active. The fob average last week was about 10 cents higher than the average for the preceding week and Monday it was up 19 cents more, probably in anticipation of the railway strike, for on Tuesday it fell.

Three of the four began packing last week—mostly for export. They were the Anaheim Valencia Orange association, the Anaheim Cooperative Orange association and the Anaheim Citrus Fruit association. Bear, Lion Upset; Scare Norwalk All of 360 pounds of angry lion and 260 pounds of disgruntled bear, frightened occupants of Norwalk Monday afternoon as a trailer in which they were traveling to Anaheim for Progress Week Exposition, broke loose from its truck. Pandemonium broke loose as the trailer-cage overturned and the door sprung open. The truck bringing the wild animals here was rounding a corner at Norwalk when it upset the trailer. Sheriff’s deputies with riot guns and high powered rifles ran to the scenes and guarded the animals, neither of which escaped, while a wrecking truck uprighted the cage. Tony, the eight-year-old lion, and Susan, the seven-year-old bear, were being brought to Anaheim from San Pedro by Jimmy Wood of Venice, trainer of animals for exhibitions and motion picture work.

Bear, Lion Upset; Scare Norwalk Glenn A. Hipes, manager of Anaheim Citrus Fruit, said that in spite of the prorate of 200 cars of Valencias for all of southern California, he would have picked more fruit if pickers had been available, because his association has a pre-cooling plant which will hold fruit in good condition until it can be shipped. G. W. Sandilands, manager of the Anaheim Valencia Orange association, said he had plenty of pickers for present operations and he expects to have Mexican nationals as pickers by the time he needs more. Mr. Sandilands added that he believes the Valencia crop is smaller than present estimates indicate and this year’s crop will bring a good price if it is handled right. Earl Woodward, manager of the Anaheim Cooperative Orange association, said his house had been packing fruit since last week, practically all of which was going to export markets. Valencias (Continued on Page 6) Clee Clark Wins 'Chest' Award Clee Clark, 111 East Valencia street, organist and local car dealer, won a five percent Appreciation Day award from a possible Treasure Chest of $525, yesterday (Wednesday) afternoon in front of the Fox Theater.

It was not determined at Tuesday's meeting whether the course would be nine or 18 holes in length, but it was indicated the improvement would be made by park employees.
