‘Buried Treasure’ Proves Youngsters Burglary Downfall
Buried treasure proved the downfall of three Santa Ana youngsters, who were held by Santa Ana police yesterday on charges of burglary, the arrests having solved the case of the burglary several nights ago at North Park Memorial church.
Loot of the burglary, exactly $4.11, had been concealed by the three boys, aged 10, 9½, and 8, in Memorial park on the south side of Santa Ana. The sum of $1.98 was hidden under a bush, and $2.13 was concealed in an underground sprinkler head.
Park attendants found the money Saturday and remembered seeing the boys grouped around the “burial” spot. The boys admitted it when rounded up.
SMALLPOX STRIKES CELEBES ISLANDS
SINGAPORE (P) — The Singapore government has declared Makassar, in the Celebes Islands, to be an “infected place.” An official announcement said information had been received that “a dangerous disease, smallpox, exists in Makassar.”
Exotic Fashion Preview Planned by Children's
Although warm days do belie it—fall is once more upon us! And with the first of fall comes society’s first important event—a fashion show! “Adventures in the Wonderland of Fashion” is the title of the big fashion showing to be held on Thursday, Sept. 6, 1:30 p.m. at the Balboa Bay club. The Santa Ana Auxiliary of the Children's Home society is presenting the fashion show and tea, with styles by Buffums.
The exciting plans for the afternoon are well deserving of fanfare. Professional models will promenade down the long ramp with a spectacular show of complete fall into winter wardrobes. Each one of the many gorgeous costumes was purchased in New York, especially for the Sept. 6 Fashion Tea, and each one will offer something new and wonderful for milady's fashion perfection.
The Fashion show, as last year's successful one, is sponsored by the Santa Ana Auxiliary of the Children's Home society. All the proceeds from the affair will go toward facilitating good adoptions and good adoption practices throughout the county and state. A portion of the past year’s earnings will be directly used for a hospital plan to assist unwed mothers.

Tired Youthful Traveler Reports To Police Station
AZUSA (P)—Five days and more than 1,500 miles out of his home town of Harlem, Mont., 11-year-old Earl Fready got tired of hitchhiking and pulled into a sheriff's substation here.
He's ready to go back home whenever his father sends the wherewithal. Earl's father, he says, operates a ranch.
"I got to hankering to see the country before school starts and pop said it was okay to start west," the lad told officers.
"Why, he even went to the main road and said good bye."
But Earl has only 84 cents left and that won't feed him and his dog, who made the trip with him.

Mexican Independence Day Fete
Section of Santa Monica Palisades Pours over Highway
SANTA MONICA (AP)—A 100-foot section of Palisades Park bluff toppled down on the Coast Highway with a roar heard for blocks yesterday.
Earth covered four of the highway's lanes.
At some points the debris was seven feet deep. The parked car of Isaac D. Fife of Los Angeles was carried 35 feet by the earth slide, but was not buried.
BRONX BEAN PARTY
NEW YORK (AP)—Long Island farmers recently staged their own version of a land-locked Boston Tea Party by dumping enough string beans to feed 112,000 people rather than sell at 25 cents a bushel.
Arriving at the Bronx Terminal Market with 14 tons of freshly picked beans, the farmers contended that they needed $2 a bushel to make a reasonable profit. Bidders blamed hot weather, saying the beans spoiled so quickly they were a bad risk, although they sell at retail for 15 to 19 cents a pound.
The farmers said the baskets alone were worth 25 cents, that pickers got from 50 to 60 cents a bushel, so they heaved as many as possible into a seven-ton street cleaning truck and drove the rest.

Price changes since 1940
The cost of telephone service today has actually dropped in terms of the number of telephones a customer can call without toll charges. For, since 1940, telephones have doubled in most places.

HERE’S AN EXCEPTIONAL BARGAIN
telephone dollar buys more telephone service than in 1940
2. You buy telephone service for just one thing—to have a quick and handy way to keep in touch with other people. Today you can call about twice as many telephones as you could in 1940. And when you compare just that one tremendous increase in value with the small increase in telephone rates, you can see that what you pay for service has actually dropped considerably—in terms of what the telephone can do for you.
Your telephone is one of today’s best bargains
