Mr. Pritchard says he anticipates the demand for valencias will start early this season. FOLKS STAYED HOME AND READ The people of Fullerton evidently caught up with their reading during the wet weather, judging by the number of books brought back yesterday and the number of new ones let out by the Fullerton library. Yesterday saw the largest library circulation of the season, Miss Campbell, assistant librarian, stated this morning. The number of new books loaned yesterday was 368. HOUSER CONDUCTS REVIVAL A two weeks' protracted meeting is being held at the First Christian church of Brea by Rev. J. T. Houser, pastor of the First Christian church of Fullerton. Several automobile loads of people from Fullerton and from Los Angeles attended last night. WAY BACK FROM LOOS ANGELES. The Fullerton band will play for the Masons Wednesday night of next week. The band is arranging for a free public concert in about two weeks. Rehearsals are being held regularly. Mrs. C. C. Smithburn has been accorded the honor of election as delegate from Fullerton Royal Neighbors of America to the Sacramento conference this week. Mrs. Elmer Wardwell, wife of a well-known rancher living near Artesia, is seriously ill with pneumonia. She was taken in the Seale ambulance Sunday evening to Los Angeles for treatment. Mr. and Mrs. Stewart S. Smith, of Fullerton, went to Pomona for a weekend visit with Mr. and Mrs. W. A. Spooner. Mrs. Smith, formerly a teacher in the Kauffman school at Pomona, was Miss Margaret Duffy before her marriage. A number of Fullerton people went to Brea last night to take part in the basket social in Sewell hall, under the directions of the Women's Union La-bel League. Each woman provided a basket of luncheon sufficient for two people. There were the usual social features. Pred Hiltscher is in Fullerton for a week's visit with his brothers. For several years the Hiltscher brothers have owned a mine in New Mexico, Fred and Max being in charge. The visitor says there was good money in the mining business before the war, but that it has not been so good the last two years. Young People Render Very Musical Program The young people's department of the White Temple Sunday school delighted a large audience last evening with a very pleasing program of music and readings. Much of the music was of a classical nature and created the desire of music lovers that the effort be repeated at an early date, the program giving evidence that the department has a wealth of talent. Miss Luna Wellman pleased, both with her piano solos and accompaniments. Her rendition of Polichl nelle, by Serge Rachimianino, gave and prevented the scheduled opening last night. The Groff company is exhibiting here for the benefit of the Anaheim band. Among the various attractions are the captive seasplanes. The immense iron structure is built high in the air. From the supporting arms hang machines resembling seasplanes. As the big machine turns, the planes swing out and up; motors buzz and all the mechanism usually found in a seasplane gets into action. The planes have flying space of 200 feet, dip and spin as do the sea and air variety of sky-pilots. The trained wild animal show is another feature attraction, and there is a big, flashing, three-horse merry-go-round and giant Ferris wheel, in addition to the athletic arena, where wrestlers meet all comers, circus side show, "Superba" and other attractions. The afternoon and evening the show band and members of the Anaheim band will give concerts in the down town section. About 200 people travel with the company, and as a result rooms have been at a premium since the Groff show train arrived. Also the cafes have been doing a big business. DOWNPOUR DOESN'T HALT NAVAL CRUISE Santa Ana men who attained the rank of officers in the navy during the war commanded Eagle 49 on the cruise of reservists to Catalina Sunday. Lleut. Ben Bleo was in command and with him were Ensigns Marvin Morrison and Francis Westgate. Among other Orange-co men on the trip were Leslie Mitchell, Raymond Dickinson and Gus Tampils of Santa Ana and W. Schultz of Fullerton. The reservists had a delightful day and some experiences that were interesting. It rained throughout the day and an attempt to land at Catalina was frustrated by the downpour. It is expected that a cruise on a destroyer will be arranged in a short time, with the trip covering a period of two or three days. There are about 175 naval reserviH.P.Noll Public Accountant and Auditor HOUSER CONDUCTS REVIVAL A two weeks' protracted meeting is being held at the First Christian church of Brea by Rev. J. T.

Much of the music was of a classical nature and created the desire of music lovers that the effort be repeated at an early date, the program giving evidence that the department has a wealth of talent. Miss Luna Wellman pleased, both with her piano solos and accompaniments. Her rendition of Pollichinelle, by Serge Rachimaninoff, gave ample opportunity for her splendid artistry, as did also her playing of Cantique d'Amour, by Lizst. To Miss Wellman must go the credit for arranging the program and assembling the artists. Mrs. Stafford Sims was in her usual good voice, giving rich expression to Dreams, by Aut Strelezi, and her Ave Maria, by Gounod, was particularly appreciated. Miss Carrie Lou Evans, who took the place of Mr. R. E. Campbell at a late hour, and Mrs. Sims, were also much enjoyed in Because I Love You, Dear, by C. B. Hawley, and That's When I'll Forgive, by Glasse. Mrs. Merle Harris delighted with her rendition of From the Land of the Sky Blue Waters, by Cadman, and To a Messenger, by LaForge, while her Slave Song, by Teresa Del Riego, found a highly appreciative response from her auditors. The audience could not get enough of Mrs. L. E. Sutherland's readings. Her interpretation of Danny, by Ellas Day, touched the heartstrings of her hearers, and she was warmly encored, responding with an Edmund Vance Cook poem. Mr. Wade Westlake's rendition of From a Lover in Damascus, by Amy Woodforde-Furden, gave evidence of a rich and promising voice. Otto Krastel's violin number, Souvenir, by Drdla, was warmly encored. Mammoth Greenhouses Planned at Fullerton Fullerton may become the home of large greenhouses for the growing of cut flowers and hot house plants, W. M. Irwin, secretary of Fullerton B. of T., stated today. The new plant would cover an area of 20 acres and will be one of the largest, if not the largest, in the West. Albert H. Amling, president of the Bellwood State bank, and vice president of the Maywood State bank of Maywood, Ill., is here representing the interests that may establish the plant. Ernest C.

Aside from these two minor washouts, which the highway workers are busy clearing up early today, no further damage was reported. Numerous cars met with minor disasters due to the slippery pavement, however. Two were towed into Capistrano after turning over. No one was injured in either of these accidents. Dr. C. S.

Stop the Theft of Power Imperfect or worn piston rings in your motor steal power at every stroke of the piston. You can't see them, but their theft is constant, unnecessary, expensive. Imperfect compression, less power, fouled spark plugs, too much carbon, and too large gas bills are some of the signs of this invisible theft. Stop this loss of power by equipping your motor with McQuay-Norris Leak-Proof Piston Rings. They increase power, save fuel and decrease carbon. For eight years the McQuay-Norris brand has stood for efficient control of power, carbon and fuel. Nenno & Bock $5.00 ments as low as 20 per week. BER'S Book and Music STORE neim, Calif.
