Did You Quit With K The Orang LEA VOL. XXI, No. 125 This Paper Accepts All Advertising on the Underside That its Circulation Equals any 3 Others. In Th HIGH SCHOOL OPERA EVENT LONG TO BE REMEMBERED HERE After many weeks of preparation, the "Mikado" given by the Department of Music Anaheim Union high school, under the supervision of Prof. Thomas Askin has gone down in history as an event long to be remembered. The assembly hall of the high school was filled last evening with a representative gathering of Anaheim music lovers, and from the rising of the curtain on the first act until the close of the performance the audience voiced its appreciation by its hearty applause. The different parts were well taken, each character fitting into his role with the ease and grace of a professional. The Mikado of Japan was well depicted by Welborn Wallop. The work of Glyde F. Mohler of Los Angeles in the part of Nanki-Poo was splendid. He was in good voice and his stage appearance all that could be desired. Glen Rafkes, William E. Askin and N. R. Phillips as Ko-Ko, Pooh-Bah and Pish-Tush were splendidly portrayed. The three sisters, Yum-Yum, Pitti-Sing and Peep-Bo taken by Miss Milfred Carter, Grace Parrett and Berlioe Smith is deserving of great The Mikado of Japan was well depleted by Welborn Wallop. The work of Olyde F. Mohler of Los Angeles in the part of Nanki-Poo was splendid. He was in good voice and his stage appearance all that could be desired. Glen Rakes, William E. Askin and N. R. Phillips as Ko-Ko, Poon-Bah and Pish-Tush were splendidly portrayed. The three sisters, Yum-Yum, Pittling and Peep-Bo taken by Miss Milfred Carter, Grace Parrett and Bernice Smith is deserving of special mention. The solo work of Miss Carter was splendid. Mrs. Isabel Sheppard as Katisha, an elderly lady in love with Nanki-Poo, was well received. The chorus composed of the boys and girls' glee clubs of the high school was very good. Between the first and second acts Miss Antonette Friend delighted the audience with a violin solo, graciously responding to an encore. The stage setting and costumes were beautiful. Prof. Thomas Askin, under whose able direction the opera was produced, is deserving of the highest praise for the success of the affair. BIG BILL HART AT FAIRYLAND THEATRE Tomorrow and Friday evenings The New Fairyland offers its patrons, Bill Hart in "The Poppy-Girl's Husband." The theatre management advises all to go to the flying circus in the afternoon and early evening—but see the Hart picture at the last show at 9:00 p.m. Thursday. Those who do not see the film Thursday—should certainly not miss it Friday evening. In this offering Mr. Hart rises to new heights, carrying the audience with him—taking the spectators out of themselves and transporting them to the very scenes depicted so graphically in the story. Every bit of the innate strength of character that has made Hart a world-favorite on the screen, is retained in this new picture which deals with underworld life in San Francisco—the famous or infamous—Barbary Coast. Come to see "Bill" Hart in this new type of character—in this sensational story. I. O. O. F. WILL PICNIC The I. O. O. F. Centenial picnic will be held at Orange county Park on Saturday April 26. Odd Fellows of Anaheim and Fullerton will leave Anaheim at 9:30. Beginning at 10:45 there will be a program of music, songs and speeches. At noon a basket lunch will be enjoyed under the big live oak trees. At 2 p.m., an afternoon of games and sports will begin with entries for both ladies and gentlemen. At 3:15 there will be a drill and later a group picnic. LARGE STOCK OF AUTO ACCESSORIES The Chas. Mann Garage is another reason why Anaheim rightly is the trading center for Northern Orangeco. Carrying as large, if not the largest, stock of auto accessories in the county, the autist can find no reason for going to Los Angeles for Auto accessories. While holding the Dodge agency, the Mann garage caters to all makes of cars, not only as to accessories but also for the repairing, with a large and up-to-date machine shop. This garage also offers commodious storage for cars and trucks. Mr. Mann stated today that he is unable to get delivery on Dodge cars fast enough to serve buyers. He invites the motoring public to come in and inspect his large line of accessories and other features of his garage. WALNUT GROVE DEAL INVOLVES $50,000 A deal involving between $50,000 and $60,000 has been closed with the purchase by Ed Farnsworth, of the Orange County Savings and Trust Bank, Santa Ana, of the 60-acre walnut grove of the Monaghan estate on the San Joaquin ranch. This is one of the first walnut groves to be developed on the big ranch, the trees being between 14 and 15 years old. It closes out the interest there of a family that was prominently identified with that section for many years. A new well was developed on the property last year. Mr. Farnsworth has no plans for immediate change in the property, but may eventually take out the walnut trees and plant Valencia oranges. An effort to in- I. O. O. F. WILL PICNIC The I. O. O. F.

Bell, of Anaheim, who responded to the call of the government for spy-glasses, has just received word that his glass, a century-old heirloom, was being returned and with it would be a history of the service it had given the country in the recent emergency. Dr. Harold W. Wickett, who has just returned from service in France, has resumed his practice in this city.

COUNTY AGENT BUSY “This has been the busiest winter in the eight years I have been the Orange-co representative at the Los Angeles hambder of commerce,” declares D. W. McDannald, publicity lecturer for the county. “People have come to alifornia some because they wanted to come and could afford to come this year for the first time and some have come because they couldn’t go to Europe. A great many have decided to remain. “Just what per cent found the land of heart’s desire in Orange-co, I cannot say, as I seldom am able to follow a prospect across the threshold, but several have returned to tell me that our little county more than met their expectations.” Eleven employees of the Wilson Brothers, boat and garage firm at Balboa are enjoying a vacation cruise in the 52-foot boat, “Freda” in command of Capt.

Wilson of the Wilson Brothers’ firm. There were about 20 families of oil workers to leave the Taft fields last week for Southern California fields, many of them coming to the Fullerton fields.

McCord announcing that the total subscriptions up to close of banking hours this afternoon would be right around $70,000, Victory Loan committeeemen were elated with the progress of the campaign, when it is considered there has been no personal solicitation, the response being entirely due to letters from the banks and the publicity given the desirableness of the bonds as an investment. Chance for Advertising "It certainly would be fine advertising for Anaheim if the word could be sent out that this city had subscribed its entire quota without having to resort to a canvas or pressure from committeemen. It would be the one thing to clinch the claim that this is one of the most prosperous points in the United States," said Mr. McCord. "The total subscriptions up to last night were $39,400 subscribed by 171 investors. Today there has been more interest displayed than on Monday and Tuesday. When it is considered that in the last drive bonds were placed with more than 2000, it is easy to see that the interest now evident needs be maintained only a few days to sell out the entire quota. McCord issued an appeal to all industrial establishments in this district to make a try for the Honor Flags awarded 100 pet. institutions. Chairman McCord announced late this afternoon that the Anaheim Sugar Factory had already gone over the top with a bond subscription from everyone of the attaches of the factory. Manager D. Jessurum obtained a blank Honor Roll only this morning. He Phoned Mr. McCord this afternoon that it was already filled out." HOSTESS TO CLUB MRS. SEARS HOSTESS Mrs. H. L.
