The collection was gathered by L. B. Depweg of Fullerton. Officials of the bank suggest that vacation days are not so very far away and by starting to save now, one will be fully prepared to enjoy them when they arrive. Travelers checks are most convenient whether the trip is in foreign countries or points in the United States, and are issued by this bank.

According to the by-laws of the Anaheim C. of C., the regular meeting for March falls on next Monday night.

Mrs. Boyd stated that the Stanton branch is contributing to the boys at Arrowhead hospital $25 for gardening fund, $25 for tobacco, $100 for the Red Cross representative to be used as an emergency fund. She stated that directors would like the use of a seven-passenger car to take the ladies to the hospital and see what they can do to make the lives of the boys who were wounded over the seas more cheerful. The ladies would like to take them cookies and other goodies. While the Red Cross is not making much of a show they are quietly working and each week J. H. Whitaker, chairman of the home section, and Mrs. Eva H. Boyd, secretary, relieve some cases where relief is needed. R. R.'S GETTING 'HEP' TO WHAT SHIPMENT BY WATER IMPENDS Have Begun to Speed Up Service—Car Shot to San Antonio, Tex., in Four Days. That the railroads are beginning to wake up to a realization of what the enthusiasm being displayed among growers and packers for the shipment of fruit by water and have begun to improve service is the belief of Manager W. H. Schureman of the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Assn. "We shipped a car of oranges from Anaheim March 4 and it was delivered in San Antonio, Texas, March 9," said Schureman today. The railroads must be getting 'hep' to the situation and trying to speed up. The best previous time I ever knew of for such rail shipment was seven days and more often it has been 12 days. Schureman says that Valencias are sizing up rapidly and if care is shown in picking the larger sizes first the crop should grade up satisfactorily. Schureman had but two hours more picking to clean up the navel movement when forced to stop by When this meeting is held it is expected that the management of the first annual California Valencia Orange Show will have all plans under way and something of great interest to report to the members and their friends generally.

And the business of the new factory is steadily growing and will necessitate a larger force of employees and more equipment within a short time. A new steam boiler was installed about a week ago.

Thursday evening at 5:45, with a great roar,它 gushed in at the rate of from 2000 to 5000 barrels per day. This is the well that broke loose Saturday Nov. 13th,and gushed oil over the surrounding territory at the rate of 20,000 barrels.它 finally sanded up,and because of the terrific gas pressure the casing collapsed in the hole,necessitating redrilling. This was a long and tedious job,and great care was exercised to keep the great well under control at all times. The well is now connected up with the strongest high-pressure fittings made,and will be held down to a flow of from 2000 to 5000 barrels.她 oil comes from the well through three six-inch flow lines and passes through flow plugs two inches in diameter at the entrance and three-quarters of an inch at the outlet. When originally brought in hast November,the oil passed through two four-inch flow lines. After flowing for a short time Thursday night,the well was shut down until 7:30 a.m.Friday,当 it was opened again.

COURTHOUSE, ARDMORE, Okla., March 12.—Political power of Jake Hamon, murdered millionaire oil magnate, was revealed today when the slain man's death plea, mentioning Warren Harding, president of the United States, was recited from the witness stand. The astounding recital came when Hamon's pal, W. D. Nichols, former police chief of Ardmore and now an Oklahoma oil man, testified for the state against Clara Smith Hamon, the girl on trial, who is accused of slaying the former republican national committeeman. Nichols said: "I was with Jake just before he died. Hamon and I talked politics. I think he was the republican leader of the United States. He told me he would die and begged me to go direct to Warren Harding to get some of his friends taken care of with political jobs. Nichols' testimony came as the result of cross examination of "Wild Bill" McLean, Fort Worth, counsel for the accused girl. It was brought about by this leading question. "Didn't you and Hamon discuss the great republican victory at the polls?" COURT OF HONOR IS TO GIVE TEST SOON Boy Scout News The court of honor gives tests to applicants for first class and merit badges. All scouts in the county are eligible to take the tests. The men who are members of the court are Dr. Roy S. Horton; Dr. M. B. Patton; M. Belsel; and the Rev. W. L. H. Benton.

Four new Scouts passed the Tenderfoot test. Major Desombre attended the meeting of the troop and gave a talk on "Soldier Life." He is the drill master for the troop.

He told me he would die and begged me to go direct to Warren Harding to get some of his friends taken care of with political jobs. Nichols' testimony came as the result of cross examination of "Wild Bill" McLean, Fort Worth, counsel for the accused girl. It was brought about by this leading question. Didn't you and Hamon discuss the great republican victory at the polls? It was recalled by people in the courtroom that Hamon played a leading and dramatic role early in the Chicago republican convention, when he swung his delegation thot to be supporting Gen. Wood, to the support of Warren Harding. Later, it was reported, he spent a fortune and directed the political fight which carried Oklahoma for the Republican candidate. Hamon was considered as a possible eligible for President Harding's cabinet. He was talked of as the "next secretary of the interior." Jerry Foster, garage man, was the first witness for the state when court opened today. He said he had seen Clara Hamon toting a gun several times in the last year. Foster said he saw Clara the day after Hamon was shot. He declared Clara's hands and throat were not scarred, as the defense maintains, the result of Hamon's alleged abuse. "The defendant was planning a trip to California shortly before Hamon was shot," said Foster.
