PAMPHLETS MAY BE BARRED FROM SCHOOL Whether or not the pamphlet, "America Is Calling" will be barred from the Fullerton public schools, when efforts are made for its circulation here, is attracting considerable attention. The pamphlet, which is said to have been published by the Better American Federation of America, with which the state organization of California is affiliated, is filled with propaganda against communism, socialism and other "isms." It also contains an attack on state ownership of public utilities. Attho the pamphlet has not been seen here it is expected to make its entrance into the county at any time. It is probable the local school authorities will be saved a decision by the recent opinion of the state board of education which does not favor the idea. School authorities in Imperial-co have barred the circulation of the pamphlets and have quoted the decision of Will C. Wood, state superintendent of public instruction, which says: "The question of state ownership of public utilities is clearly a partisan question, as is also the question of socialism. The board is therefore, of the opinion that the pamphlet in question contains partisan propaganda and must be excluded from the public schools of the city."

FULLERTON RAINFALL 5:07 The rainfall at Fullerton Saturday amounted to 14, making 5:07 for the season, compared with 6:44 at this time last year, according to the rain gauge at the Placentia Orange Growers' Assn. ROWLEY PURCHASES FIRST SHERIDAN To Joseph F. Rowley, of the Orange-co Auto Club, goes the distinction of being the first one to purchase one of the new Sheridan motor cars from the Quality Motor Co., dealers for northern Orange-co. No sooner had the announcement been made, making known the identity of the local dealers than Mr. Rowley was on the floor at the Fullerton salerooms clamoring for one of the new masterpieces of the General Motors Corporation. Frank Taggart, one of the firm, like the good salesman he is, took Mr. Rowley's money explaining that delivery would be made as soon as the first carload had been taken off the track. Soon after Mr. Rowley's departure, one of the new Sheridans, spotlessly clean and shining, was rolled into the salesroom in preparation for an advance showing. It sure made a fine showing, in fact it was too conspicuous, for Mr. Rowley chanced back that way and the first thing that came under the focus of his optics was that new wonder car in the window. Taggart is conceded to be the boy with oily tongue, but not one of his explanations or excuses scored a point, even his excess avoiddupulse was of no advantage and Mr. Rowley drove away. TAXI FIRM PLEASED BY HARTFORD CORRIDOR "We are highly pleased with this manner in which Hartford tires deliver great mileage service; local automobile owners in this ritory," states members of Neptun Bock, Hartford dealers in this territory. They point to an instance which a Taxi cab firm received average of 25,000 miles on their tires in a record test. CADILLLAC CARS FOR RENT Long Beach, Calif., Nov. 26, 1919. Mr. C. G. Cowden, Distributor Hartford Tires 240 American Ave., Long Beach Calif. Dear Sir: Having used Hartford Cord Tires exclusively on our fleet of two Cadillac cars for over a year, know you will be interested in mileage records made during a period. In spite of the fact that all cars are in constant use both day and night, piloted by drivers cannot take time to "nurse" off the cars or their tires, our recorder shows that the Hartford Cords have an average of almost 25 miles each—some of the tires has exceeded 30,000 miles, while most traveled around 20,000 miles. We believe this is a world record for tires in the hard grind of reservation, remembering of course that the cars are in service; round in all kinds of weather, versing both good and bad road variations rates of speed. This remarkable record was also made with Cilliac equipped cars—cars that Beaverlor than he average automobiles. As Hartford Cords give such usual mileage, we have found it pays to run them until they absolutely worn out, instead of running them retreaded. In this way get uninterrupted service from them from the time it is installed until the fabric is worn through one inner tune. In all of our experiences with Hartford Cords, we have never known one blowing out. The answer is... BRING MOVIE STARS FROM LOS ANGELES An attempt will be made to bring movie stars from Los Angeles to the big entertainment to be given in Fullerton for the benefit of ex-service men at a date in the near future. The Ebell club will have the co-operation of the Fullerton post of the American Legion. Altho details were not arranged there is every indication from plans announced by the two committees that the entertainment, which will be in the form of vaudeville, will be one of the biggest attractions that has ever been presented here. It will be staged at the high school. As a preliminary step to the entertainment the American Legion is bringing its deputy state commander, Lieut. Burton R. Sites, to Fullerton, to explain the deplorable conditions among the disabled ex-service men of the territory around Los Angeles. Both the American Legion and the Ebell club will hear the report and it will no doubt stir these organizations to make the entertainment a greater success. In view of the plans for the big event the Ebell club has abandoned its plans for a dinner scheduled for next week. At the meeting Thursday the Ebell club was represented by the committee recently appointed to investigate conditions. Miss H. E. Shirley is chairman and the other members are Mrs. W. A. Moore, Mrs. James H. Green and Mrs. O. H. Culmer. The Legion was represented by Commander Brueckner and E. J. Marks. TEACHERS WORSTED IN SNOWBALL BOUT The junior and senior classes of the Fullerton high school accompanied by a large number of the faculty, including Principal L. E. Plummer and wife, and Rollin A. Marsden and others, as chaperanes, had a jolly time at the class trip to Mount Baldy Saturday. The party which consisted of 15 auto loads were caught in a regular Alaskan snow storm, following which they engaged in a rough-and-tumble snowball fight. The pupils took advantage of the situation to "get even" with their teachers, and on one occasion the entire student body cornered Mr. Plummer, and—Did he catch Hall Columbia? Well, anyway he caught a carload of snowballs. FULLERTON FLOODED WITH HOME SEEKERS Fullerton is flooded with house rent seekers whose search is as furtile as a hobo's hunt for a million dollars, the reality men of Fullerton are agreed. W. M. Irwin, of the Fullerton Residential Realty Company, after Mr. Rowley's departure, one of the new Sheridans, spotlessly clean and shining, was rolled into the salesroom in preparation for an advance showing. It sure made a fine showing, in fact it was too conspicuous, for Mr. Rowley chanced back that way and the first thing that came under the focus of his optics was that new wonder car in the window. Taggart is conceded to be the boy with oily tongue, but not one of his explanations or excuses scored a point, even his excess avoiddupose was of no advantage and Mrs. Rowley drove away the car. In spite of the fact that the weather man was measuring the precipitation for that day by the foot. RADICAL CHANGE IN FRANKLIN HOOD A big surprise feature of the new Franklin model is the radical change which has been made in the lines of which the Franklin created in the Franklinhood has always been a distinguishing feature, yet for some reason it never met the popular approval of the motor car buyer. It is felt that the changes offered in the new model will overcome these objections, and judging from the sensation New York Auto Show, the new hood York Automobile Show, the new hood with its suggestion of foreign design has accomplished wonders. "At a time when economy and efficiency has became the national watchword," states Bob White, Orange county distributor, "the Franklin has forged to the front as the greatest investment in transportation now offered to the American people. So thoroughly has the Franklin met the present day demands that no radical changes have been made in its construction other than that of the hood." One of the new models is expected to arrive at the local salesrooms within a few days. DEMAND FOR COUPE GROWS IN WINTER While the Bulck sedan and coupe is delightfully designed for service in all seasons and weather conditions," states Wm. Goodrum, of Anaheim Auto Co., Anaheim and Fullerton dealers, "the present chilly and rainy days greatly enhances its value." The coupe is especially popular with members of the fair sex and recent sales of this Bulck model have been made to Mrs. Felix Stein, Fullerton, and Mrs. Lucy Ortega, Fullerton.

W. M. Irwin, of the Fullerton Realty Co., stated that he had nine calls before 10 a.m. today from heads of families in search for houses. He stated that the housing committee of the Fullerton B. of T. is going to take action on the matter in the near future.

Perry of the First Baptist Church. MUCH INTEREST IN GREAT INCUBATOR Mr. and Mrs. Wolken of Long Beach were Sunday guests in the C. G. Sparks' ranch home southwest of the city.

The unscrewed ma- Daly Bros., Bloomington, Ill., over two years ago and from all appearances and action this battery is an efficient today as it was the day it was put in my car. I purchased this battery from these men on their reputation as real battery men and the service which they render is widely advertised. This Vesta battery I believe in the best battery in the world. Here is its history: with my Studebaker car I had a battery which lasted nine months and its service was very poor. I purchased a Vesta battery and after using same eight months I traded my car in on a new car, keeping the battery which I purchased from this firm. After this battery was in service nine months longer, I traded again for a new car and again I put the Old Vesta in the new car. This same battery has been in service over ten months more and is still going great. This battery has been in three Studebaker cars, has broke in two new cars, which is very hard on new batteries as the motors were very hard to turn over. This battery has never been recharged nor I have never hand cranked any cars since I have had this Vesta. Can you imagine what kind of a battery I want if this Vesta ever wears out? West Bros., The Auto Electric Maintenance Co., Los Angeles at Chestnut St., Anaheim, have many letters on file telling what the motorists really know about the Vesta battery and Vesta battery service. WHITE AMONG CHIEF FRANKLIN DEALERS There are always several ways to tell a story and each may be correct. For instance, Bob White, Orange-co dealer for the Franklin, states that people in this territory are just as anxious to own Franklin cars as in any other section of country giving as evidence that out of the 1041 Franklins shipped from the factory in December, four were delivered to purchasers in Orange-co. Another version of the story might be that Bob White is listed among the most energetic dealers in the country and always places more than his quota of the factory output in his territory. Those who purchased cars in December were Mrs. Bertha Lauy, Anaheim, W. W. Hulck, Placentia; Lee Dove, Anaheim and J. W. Price. Dr. C. S.
