Did you? We went to kindergarten ostensibly to take part in the observance of Public Schools week, although the visit may have been largely impelled by a desire to see a future President of the United States going through his paces along with other kids of lesser promise. Parental pride is a great thing, you know. What father has not crept into his small son's room at night to gaze down at that angelic little package of temporarily arrested mischief without saying to himself, "here, surely, sleeps a boy who someday will become great enough to be President and fire generals"? And, 30 years hence, if dad has not been killed off in the mean-time by taxes, chances are he will get his reward. In the twilight of his life, just before he lades away, he may thrill to the applause as his son is inaugurated president of the 20-30 club. YES, IT IS natural for us-parents to dream of the futures of our boys and girls. Even the least-born of them can reach the heights And, 30 years hence, if dad has not been killed off in the meantime by taxes, chances are he will get his reward. In the twilight of his life, just before he fades away, he may thrill to the applause as his son is inaugurated president of the 20-30 club. YES, IT IS natural for us-parents to dream of the futures of our boys and girls. Even the least-born of them can reach the heights in later life, depending variously on such helps as knowing the "right people," "pulling the right strings," and being blessed with a "good run of luck." We dwell fondly on a fable that anyone in this country may become President. This I strongly doubt. Has a Jew or a Roman Catholic ever inhabited the White House? BUT SUCH THINGS are a little too heady for such a light-hearted column as this. Let's get back to Public Schools week. Perhaps you feel that paying your school tax is enough contribution on your part. It is not enough. Visit the school system, whether you have children or not. Take a look at modern teaching methods. See where your school-tax dollar goes. If your visit does nothing else, it will give encouragement to the teacher. Upon meeting you he (or she) may even be mildly surprised to learn that, after all, the little puppet which you have been sending daily to school was not begat by a monster and suckled by a werewolf. The teachers see the parents through the children, and I envy them their fascinating opportunity to study mass psychology. Do YOU know anything about the teacher who daily moulds your child for the future? Go to school with your offspring some time and take a look at the moulder. It is not necessary to wait until Public Schools week for this meeting. The public schools are much maligned, especially in Orange county, where a powerful force for propaganda takes delight in subjecting them collectively to a relentlessly sustained attack of calumniation of the most ill-reasoned and unjust sort. Chances are you get this stuff tossed up on your lawn every afternoon. GO TO SCHOOL, shake the teacher's hand and, if you feel that a good job is being done, don't be afraid to say so. It's your kid...your school...and your tax dollar. IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of Anahelm Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago We were taken by storm on Monday evening when our sanctuary was invaded by from four to 75 young ladies who betrayed a lively interest in everything pertaining to the art preservatives. They overhauled our manuscript, "bled" our forms and disarranged everything. If they had issued our parental pride is a great thing, you know.

Mr. Kuebler got on his bicycle and set out for the fire not knowing it was his own home that was burning. The building and contents were entirely destroyed. There was an insurance of $1100 on the house. Marshal Steadman has a force 75 Years Ago We were taken by storm on Monday evening when our sanctuary was invaded by from four to 75 young ladies who betrayed a lively interest in everything pertaining to the art preservatives. They overhauled our manuscript, "bled" our forms and disarranged everything. If they had kissed our reporter we should have been powerless to resist. Such are the charms of beauty. Capt. Knox will commence delivering water to the people of Orange on the 27th. The price will be forty cents an hour for an irrigation head of water. We understand the price will be materially reduced as soon as the arrangements are completed. The wagon from the brewery on Centre street got on a little too much steam last evening, and succeeded "in dumping a few of its humates upon the sidewalk." However it was not the only beer receptacle that was a little unsteady in its gait, and was quite excusable on account of the picnic. The breweries were taxed to their utmost capacity to furnish the beverage for which the hot weather of yesterday created a demand. 50 Years Ago The residence of Johnny Kuebler, situated on East Broadway, was totally destroyed by fire at midnight Saturday. The origin of the fire is a mystery. No one was present in the house at the time. Mr. Kuebler was up town and Mrs. Kuebler was in Whittier visiting friends. Mr. Kuebler got on his bicycle and set out for the fire not knowing it was his own home that was burning. The building and contents were entirely destroyed. There was an insurance of $1100 on the house. Marshal Steadman has a force of laborers at work cleaning the streets. Deputy assessor Lockhart of Orange, was collecting from our people yesterday the stories of their financial standing. 25 Years Ago The Alma Whittaker luncheon on Thursday afternoon at the Angelina roof garden was a delightful social affair. The literary section of the Ebell of which Mrs. H H. Benjamin is chairman, sponsored the event. About 130 club members and their guests were present. During the lunch-hour a fashion show was held. Miss Freda Lumsdon sang a group of songs. Mrs. Benjamin introduced the speaker of the day. Alma Whitaker, who is famous as a newspaper writer and is known for her sparkling and witty character sketches, captured her audience from the beginning. She described interviews with John Drinkwater, Michael Arlen and Harry Carr of the Times. She also spoke of Carrie Jacobs Bond, Mme. Elinor Glyn, Harold Lloyd, Lady Diana Bathurst and a number of other notable It was Mrs. Whittaker's birthday and she was presented with a beautiful cala with compliments of the ladies of the Ebell. WASHINGTON — When the Senate Armed Services committee starts sorting out all theemos and telecom messages exchanged between the Pentagon and General MacArthur the public may become more confused than ever about who is right in the big debate. For several documents andemos prepared during various phases of the Korean campaign—if set aside from the others—could be used to prove almost any point. Furthermore, it was once a paradoxical fact that Secretary of State Acheson was much closer to General MacArthur's position re China than the Joint Chiefs of Staff. The wolf pack that always howls at Acheson's heels has been claiming he was responsible for MacArthur's ouster. However, the record shows first that this was not the case; second, that following MacArthur's disastrous retreat from North Korea in early December, Acheson favored severe punitive measures against China as an aggressor nation. It was the Joint Chiefs of Staff at that time which vigorously disagreed both with Acheson and MacArthur. However, despite individual and sometimes confusing differences of opinion inside the Pentagon there appears to be no occasion when the Joint Chiefs of Staff actually went on record in favor of MacArthur's proposals to bomb Chinese bases and use Chiang Kai-Shek's troops.

KOREAN WAR (Continued from Page 1) paratroop landing last month. Fifteen miles to the East, red masses surged across 88 and down the Yonchon-Uilongbu road leading to Seoul. Allies pulled back south of Changgo, four miles below the border and 15 miles north of Uilongbu. Red losses were placed at close to 30,000 in unofficial estimates. Heavy smoke and haze shrouding the battle area cut the aerial toll. Nevertheless, Marine and Fifth Air Force pilots reported they counted for at least 550 reds Thursday. This is about half their normal count. Behind the screen of serial and artillery fire, dusty columns of U.N. troops rolled toward Seoul. "Oh well," one veteran commented "we'll fight our way back by June and then we'll retreat again in September." The roads down which they moved were lined with relief of previous battles in the see-saw war. There were indications indefensible Seoul would be given up to the reds for the third time. GE WAGE INCREASES The General Electric company has announced its intention to offer a general wage increase to all employees effective as of March 15, subject to the increase for the majority of employees being approved by the Wage Stabilization Board. If approval is forthcoming, 20 employees of the Anaheim GE works are expected to get wage increases. Korea covers an area of 85,346 square miles. Among our favorite customers WEETA CHEESE 2 LB.
