SAN GABRIEL WAS EASY PICKINGS FOR FULLERTON SUNDAY Win from Mission Players by Score of 9 to 2, Getting 14 Safe Bingles. Fullerton had easy pickings with the San Gabriel team at the West Commonwealth park yesterday afternoon, winning by 9 to 2. It was a free-hitting game, Fullerton rapping out 14 singles and the visitors hit safely 11 times, once for a two-bagger and once for a triple. Duffn played thru his first game at third for Fullerton and looked mighty good. He is a Western Leaguer, playing with Denver last season. He is one of the athletes who doesn't have to play ball for a living but is in the game because he likes to smack the old onion, which he did in proper fashion three out of four times up yesterday. He has been on the bench for several games while Bobby Mousel was holding down the third sack. Bob has gone east to learn the wholesale grocery business, leaving his brother, Irish, as the sole representative of the hard-hitting family on the Fullerton team. Edwards pitched for Fullerton but was not forced to extend himself. He had a good time lobbing over his many ones which, when hit, general-tought the air. Edwards walked one and fanned four.

No one was injured when the car turned turtle. Yvarn was placed on probation and ordered to turn all his money over to his wife on pay day. It was alleged he had been making home brew. He might have been drinking "most anything," according to Marcus Andrade, deputy marshal, who arrested him.

AUTO TRADES HEAD GETS FINE OFFER Walter W. Bliddick, secretary of the Orange-co Auto Trades Assn., has been tendered the position of field secretary of the State Auto Trades Assn., with an attractive salary and liberal expense allowances as inducements for acceptance. Biddick's activities as secretary here have attracted the attention of the state officers, with the result that they are now endeavoring to secure his services for state work. "The offer of the state association is a most attractive one," said Biddick today," but I am free to confess that I do not know whether I should accept it or not. My work here has developed so many pleasant associations which make it hard for me to sever connections and it is quite possible that I will decide to continue in my present position."

The committee that had charge of the 1920 show will be in charge of the coming display. The committee is composed of C. H. McCausland, Santa Ana; Harry D. Riley, Anaheim, and Albert H. Sitton, Fullerton. The lot is to be cleaned up at once and preparations will be made for placing it in condition for the big show. It is expected that the full block will be covered by tents. The first show, held at Anaheim, May 5-8 of last year, was a big success. The committee in charge set a high mark for itself, but it will attempt to excel even the high class features that made the display at Anaheim a distinctive success. The extent of the display and the character of decorations made the exhibit one of the best of its kind ever held in Orange-co. Dealers of Orange-co are already making plans for entering exhibits. Los Angeles distributors are evincing a keen interest. It is expected space reservations will be made in such numbers as to necessitate a spread of canvas greater than was required for the show at Anaheim. COMPLETE EUCLID PAVING SATURDAY The paving on Euclid-ave, or the extension of Garden Grove-rd north, will be completed by Saturday night. Supervisor Wm. Schumacher stated today. This links up the paving between Orangenthorpe and Lincoln-aves, and will be a great convenience to Orangenthorpe-ave and Buena Park people coming into Anaheim as well as to the ranchers in the vicinity of the road.

Orange County Plain I LEADING NEWSPAPER IN NORTHERN ORANGE COUNTY Anaheim, California, Monday, January 10, 1921 13 PERSONS UNITE WITH M. E. CHURCH YESTERDAY MORNING Increasingly Large Audiences at White Temple Necessitates Purchase of 200 More Hymnals. Thirteen persons united with the Methodist church yesterday morning. The audiences have steadily increased in size until it has become necessary to buy 200 new hymnals to meet the needs of the large congregations. They were used for the first time yesterday morning. Dr. Goelssinger preached on the New Birth, using for his text John 3:3. The sermon was an interpretation of the conversation between Nicodemus and Jesus recorded in the third chapter of John's gospel. Dr. Goelssinger made an extended comparison of Judaism, represented by Nicodemus, and Christianity, represented by Christ—showing that Christianity had a richer conception of God, a higher conception of man, and a keener sense of sin. But said that the chief difference between the two religions was that Judaism was a religion of law, while Christianity is a religion of grace. "Judaism sets up high ideals but did not know what to do with the man who could not live up to its standards. Christianity links the life of man to the life of God thru faith in Christ and gives divine power to the human spirit." "Nicodemus that men needed more light and welcomed Jesus as a teacher" COOP. ORANGE ASSN. HOLD ANNULAR MEET AND ENJOY DINNER Shipped 480 Cars Last Year at $3.90 Per Box for All Grades at Packing House. The annual meeting of the Anaheim Co-op Orange Growers Assn. was held today in the new West Anaheim packing house. Following dinner served to about 225 ranchers and members of their family at noon, the annual business session began at 2 p.m. The association now has about 150 members with about 2000 acres of citrus groves. The meeting was in the nature of a celebration over the completion of the fine, modern packing house at the S. P. tracks and the County-rd. Alto this house was in operation throughout most of the recent valencia season, this is the first meeting held there, former meetings having been held in the East Anaheim house on the Santa Fe tracks. In the absence of F. E. Halladay, manager and secretary, who is confined to his home with a severe cold, his assistant, J. H. Richtie, read his annual report. His report showed the association had handled 480 cars of fruit last year, ranging from 448 to 582 boxes to the car. The average price at the packing house. The average price $3.90 per box. PLAIN DEALER ADS GOOD INVESTMENTS This is what is called a paying investment. An Anaheim lady experienced the misfortune of losing a very valuable fur neck piece on the streets of Anaheim last Friday. As soon as she discovered her loss, she came to the Plain Dealer office and inserted a "Lost Ad" in the classified page. This little classified messenger carried a story into twenty-four hundred homes in northern Orange county Friday evening and so swiftly did it make its visits that in one hour after the Plain Dealer appeared on the streets, the neck piece was returned to its rightful owner. This classified messenger recovered a fur worth many dollars and the only expense charged for its duty was 25 cents. This is another one of the many instances demonstrating the quality circulation of The Plain Dealer, readers are paid subscribers and they read the paper. As demonstrated by the one above, they are honest with themselves, their neighbors, their city and their home merchants and will not sell either for the sake of a few cents by trading in Los Angeles. 1921 BLDG. PERMITS STARTING OFF FINE Reduction in Building Costs Encouraged. Anaheim permits for the first week by Nicodemus, and Christianity, represented by Christ—showing that Christianity had a richer conception of God, a higher conception of man and a keener sense of sin. But said that the chief difference between the two religions was that Judaism was a religion of law, while Christianity is a religion of grace. "Judaism sets up high ideals but did not know what to do with the man who could not live up to its standards. Christianity links the life of man to the life of God thru faith in Christ and gives divine power to the human spirit. "Nicodemus that men needed more light and welcomed Jesus as a teacher sent from God. Jesus said men needed not light but salvation and a Savior. The hearts of men need to be made over. "Christianity preaches that man is not self-sufficient. Not any more so than an orange grove. He must be filled from without. Only as man's life is lived in the communion of the Holy Spirit does it come to its own. It needs to be born again by the quickening power of God. "Why do we have trouble in accepting such teachings? The grape of our time is the wild grape reborn. So is the orange. So the rose. The men who have moved the world have all been at least twice born—born physically and born again spiritually. It was so in Moses' case, in Jacob's, in Isaac's, in Peter's in Paul's." "Truth oils at the feet of the safe until his own soul is kindled by the power of truth. The citizen does not come to his own until the spiritual patriotism has been born in his own heart. The artist is renewed in his spirit by the flaming canvas of another, or by the wealth of beauty his own eyes see in value. "The need is that the Grace of God shall touch your hearts. Pray-that it may be so, this morning." CLAIMS NEIGHBORS BADLY INJURED HIM C. E. Gorthy, Cypress, aged about 50, claiming to have been badly beaten up at the hands of a neighbor and his wife, Mr. and Mrs. Camille Ghales, Belgians, appeared at the sheriff's office today and swore to warrant charging battery.

There he was knocked down when a boulder hit him in the head and was badly beaten with a club. He claims a rib was fractured. He says he would have been hurt much worse had not his wife been attracted by his cries.

Attorneys Homer G. Ames of Anaheim and W. F. Menton, of Santa Ana, represent the defendants. Geo. W. Sloop and L. F. Pomeroy of the board were called as witnesses at the morning session for the purpose of introducing the board's minutes and records as evidence, and then a battle over technical law points was carried on, consuming the entire morning, and indicating that the case may consume several days. The plaintiff, it was indicated, will claim that he was regularly hired as school superintendent and given a four-year contract; that after one year this contract was ignored by the school board in the dismissal of Abernathy and the appointment of a successor. He will claim that salary is due him under the contract in spite of the dismissal order of the board. The defense, on the other hand, it was indicated, will seek to prove from the school trustee's records, that the board's action in hiring Abernathy was irregular and that therefore his alleged four-year contract is void; and further, that Abernathy "ought to have been fired" and that he was regularly dismissed by the Anaheim school trustees, and that therefore he has no cause of action against the school district. Seated in the courtroom are probably 50 residents of Anaheim and vicinity, who are interested spectators, altho up to noon the argument over legal points of the case was not very elucidating. Besides the school teachers summoned as witnesses against Abernathy, it is said, there are others who were not so summoned but are attending the case as interested spectators. BALLOT TODAY ON C.
