Mr. Advertiser: The Plain Dealer The Oran VOL. XXI NO. 109 HEAVY RAIN STORM, BRINGS RAIN MARK HERE UP TO NORMAL "Hello, Mr. Dickel! Fine rain you gave us, wasn't it?" "You bet your life," answered the Anaheim rain gauger. "How much was it?" "Up to 7 a.m. today the total rainfall was 1.17 inches," said Mr. Dickel. "That makes the total for Anaheim and vicinity today this season 9.03 inches which I consider about normal, as the average annual rainfall here is only four inches more, or 18 inches, and we still have plenty of time to get the remainder." The long wished rain came copiously and in spots, it pouring down one minute and the sun shining next, a la April showers back east. Many were heard to state that the downpour at noon yesterday, just when schools were letting out, was the heaviest they had ever witnessed in California. It was, indeed, a million dollar rain, in fact, worth several millions to this part of the country. INFORMAL D.I.N.E.F. May and Mrs. A. B.

Mr. and Mrs. Hilleman have moved back to Yorba Linda and are PUTS UP PLAN FOR MUTUAL PHONE Editor Plain Dealer: Soon after the hearing of the telephone merger last summer I suggested a plan to the Anaheim Board of Trade for a co-operative telephone system. At that time there were those who said that it was not appropriate to take up the matter then, but to wait until the telephone company did increase the rates and then that the matter be pushed. The increase in toll rates has been in for some time and the increase in the phone rates went into effect on March 1. For sometime there has been much discussion of the telephone situation and it seems to be the consensus of opinion that the co-operative telephone is the only solution. In several of the eastern states cooperative phones have been in use for sometime and the companies, besides paying expenses, have been and are paying dividends, with charges of $1.00 per month a phone. So it will be readily seen that these cheaper phones may be a reality and not an iridescent dream. In California there have been several failures of these co-operative telephone systems. This is due generally to the stock being negotiable and thereby bought up by rival companies which immediately began to wreck them. I therefore hold that there are a few principles that must be adhered to in order to make a success of such a system. These may be summer up as follows: (1) The system should be truly co-operative and therefore a non-profit system. (2) The stock should be held by the telephone users, should be non-transferable, except in the case of transfer of property, then the stock to go to the new owner provided he keeps the phone. (3) It should be a no-plenty of time to get the remainder." YORBA LINDA, Mar. 14.—Specimen—An election for school trustee will be held on Friday, March 28th, at the school house. C. R.

HAMLER EQUIPS WITH KELLY CORD TIRE Geo.W.Hamler is preparing for an eastern trip by placing full equipment of the new oversize 33x4 Kell Springfield cord tires on his Olds B His old equipment was fabric tire of the same make, which are still running at 11,166 miles with the original tubes and part of the same all never having been removed from the rim. The old casings are still good for 5000 to 8000 miles. Mr.Hamler says "once a Kelly user always." wreck them. I therefore hold that there are a few principles that must be adhered to in order to make a success of such a system. These may be summer up as follows: (1) The system should be truly co-operative and therefore a non-profit system. (2) The stock should be held by the telephone users, should be non-transferable except in the case of transfer of property, then the stock to go to the new owner provided he keeps the phone. (3) It should be a not toll system to cover the entire county. In this connection it would be well to sign up the users of every telephone in the county and as many more as possible before the undertaking is started so that there be but one phone system in the county. (4) The rate should be uniform for residences and should be at least not more than one-half the rate for business and professional phones. On calls between switchboards there should be a measured service for all calls over and above a certain maximum number to be agreed upon. If these fundamental principles are carried out there would seem to be no reason to doubt the successful outcome of the enterprise. A.A. MILLS.

Valuable crop on trees now ready to pick and sell at high prices, oranges alone estimated to be about 3000 boxes. Owner in ill health and must make change. Price $42,000.00; half cash will handle.
