TELLS OF WILSON
IN GAY PAREE
Mrs. R. I. Owen has received the following interesting letter from her son, Fred, in officers' training school in France:
Blois, Dec. 15, 1918.
Dear Mother:
Well, we've moved again and this time were on our way west instead of east. We finished our course at Angers last Wednesday and today moved up here temporarily "with the view to transportation in the United States," as our orders said.
Have been having a great time the last two weeks. End two visits to Paris and needless to say enjoyed them immensely. Went up a week ago and spent two nights and two days there, and tried to see the city which is of course impossible, in that time. It is a wonderful city, and not being especially adept at picture I refuse to have about it. However, I don't wonder that the people of France are so proud of it, neither do I wonder that it is called the most beautiful city in the world. I thought New York was quite a place, but it doesn't compare with Gay Paree.
This week I had the opportunity of going again, and of course took it. I participated in the great celebration in honor of M. Wilson and saw him pass through the streets of Paris, which I consider the most eventful thing I have ever seen. You no doubt have read much of his reception, and I'm sure it was not exaggerated. Never before have machines could hardly pull the people riding and dancing, waving flags, or the Americans as they can incidentally endavaring souvenirs of our caps, so bareheaded and put my pocket for safa keeping. Can all did their part, the hilarious manner, and the trakked up and down the instating American footing to the best of our ability.
Quite sufficient for the Paree till we were so tired quite hardly walked to the hotel. We would rush a bunch of men, whether they saw us soon as we hit they knew present and relied "dairy." I mustn't talk all night Will tell you all about it back, and that will be be writing.
It is rumored that we move row morning for the constance, and if that is the next letter may have a good S. postmark on it.
So far I have received a letters, and none from the Coast, so will probably go without hearing from you ever. I haven't yet given up that may get into Germany of the third army, and so stay over a little longer. Dentally make a little more in wiping out my national c.
Well, I will close now, hope it won't be so very long before you again. Don't think there need of you writing to me as I won't receive the letter do happen to stay over a little
This week I had the opportunity of going again, and of course took it. I participated in the great celebration in honor of M. Wilson and saw him pass through the streets of Paris, while I consider the most eventful thing I have ever seen. You no doubt have read much of his reception, and I'm sure it was not exaggerated. Never before have I seen so many people, and the proud part of it to we Americans is that it was all for our Country and our President.
That night I had a great time plowing up and down the Grand Boulevard, which was so crowded that

CHINESE could hardly pass, and all people pelling and singing and waving flags, cheering all Americans as they came by and dentally endeavoring to make events of our capa, so that I want shaded and put my car in my seat for safekeeping. The American all did their part too, in real serious manner, and three of us tied up and down the avenue lining American football tactics the best of our ability, which was sufficient for the French, now were so tired, out we could walk to the hotel. Every time would rush a bunch of French-whether they saw us or not, as we hit they knew who was intent and relied "Americans." I mustn't talk all night on that, tell you all about it when I get it, and that will be better than it is rumored that we move tomorrow morning for the court, and then sit and if that is the case my letter may have a good old U. stork on it.

I will close now, hoping that to be very long before I see again. Don't think there is any of you writing to me any more, don't receive the letters. If I open to stay over a little longer.

Applications are being received from all of the southern counties of the state and as far north as San Francisco and Californiad. The interest taken in this course would seem to indicate that the applications for enrollment for the course will exceed the number that can be accommodated. This was the case last year, when the enrollment for the course was 207, while fully 40 applicants had to be turned away, as the could not be accommodated. For this reason, applications for enrollment are filed in order of receipt, when accompanied by the registration fee of $1.80.
Arrangements have been made for the following makes of tractors: Best, Cleveland, Fordson, Samson, Sandusky and Tuba. These machines will be available for demonstration and practice work, while various parts and models will be used in the classroom demonstrations.
Class room work, for example, will be given on valve grinding, adjustment of carburetors, timing of ignition systems, babbiting and adjustment of bearings, while lecture will be given on all phases of traction engineering. This course is a practical one, and will be of benefit to tractor operators.

CUT TRACTOR PRICE
The announcement in other columns of this paper today, of a big price reduction of the popular Samson Slave-Grip Tractor, will doubtlessly prove of interest to every farmer or orchardist of Orange-co.n Effective today, the popular Samson Slave-Grip Tractor is reduced in price to the prewar basis.
This tremendous reduction in price is only possible because of the great ability of the General Motors Corporation, then their modern manufacturing facilities, to economically combine the high grade material and workmanship found in the Samson Tractor.
The Samson designed and built on the Pacific Coast to meet western conditions, in a time-proven product. It has long been one of the most popular tractors of moderate size, on the western market.
The present tremendous reduction in price is simply in line with the General stores desire to Murish the best possible product, and at the lowest possible price; and undoubtedly the result of this announcement will exhaust the allotment in California, for this season, in a very short time.

BOOST S. A. SALARIES
The salary of the Santa Ana city clerk will be increased from $125 per month to $150 per month, and that of the city marshal will be raised from $10 00 to $150. Santa Ana commissioner think the salary of the recorder should be doubled, raised from $50 to $100 per month. Records of City Recorder Heathman's office show that he has collected the sum of $3965 in fines up to Jan. 1. The sum being collected office he took the office by appointment about two years and a half ago.
The present salary of the city attorney is $200 per month and it will remain the same. It has not been decided whether to make a salary that will warrant some one giving full attention to the office of city treasurer, with the money placed on deposit at interest, or to continue under the schedule that has been in vogue — $10 per month, with the bank named as the depository by the treasurer doing all the bookkeeping work. To secure some one to give the office full time, with full responsibility, would require a salary of from $100 to $150, in the opinion of some members of the board.

When Hugo Paloma was arrested as a burglar suspect three weeks ago he was identified as a man who had escaped from a Los Angeles officer who was taking him to prison. Paloma was turned over to the Los Angeles officers. Sheriff Jackson has located a bundle that was left at a rooming house by Paloma. This bundle contained a suit of clothing that had been ripped up evidently with an idea of having it cut down to fit a smaller man than the one for whom it was mode. It developed that the suit was stolen about Christmas from O. B. Barter at Anaheim. War Stamps, a Liberty Bond and jewelry stolen by Paloma from Mrs. Millings proprietor of the Garfield rooming house, have not been recovered.
