A LETTING TO OUR READERS
Talents angel-bright.
If wanting worth, are shining instruments.
In false ambition's hand, to finish faults.
Illustrious, and give infamy renown.

"B. L. T." GAVE A GENIAL TOUCH TO HUMOR
The Grim Messenger must have relaxed his austere features and must have melted his face into a smile as he touched Bert Leston Taylor on the shoulder and whispered to him—peremptorily, but not harshly: "You are wanted up yonder come along!"
There was a man as unostentatious as an old shoe; as naturally genial as the warm sunbeam; as kindly as a saint—yet if anyone called him a saint to his face, there perhaps would have been a knockdown, and "B. L. T." would have been the knocker, not the knookeer.
"B. L. T." edited a "column" in the Chicago Tribune that became famous all over the country for the excellence of its wit and humor. He was all sympathy for the innocent traffiles of humankind; but he widened a keen and meriless rapper of satire against the velveted mennesses, the amug hypocrites and the pompous prelensions of those who live, not innocently, sincerely, kindly and naturally, but craftily, hypocritically and dishonestly.
"B. L. T." made the world, in which he was known by his writings, better and brighter. He set a standard for newspaper "columns." He made humor a vehicle for puncturing the shams and correcting the follies of everyday life. And he made workaday existence more tolerable and sunnier.
Anaheim!
among its various industries
The writer who indicts with conscience; who puts his soul into his work; who sends a message against that which is mean, sorridd, base and degrading, and for that which is pure, wholesome, honest and uplifting in life—that writer works far better than he knows and exerts an influence that only eternity can measure. They who write for the public rest under a solitary obligation to God and to their fellow-men. Whether they write in serious or in light and satirical vein, they should at all times hold themselves to high standards.
Keep HAMON GIRL OUT OF MOTION PICTURES
Clara Smith Hamon, recently acquitted of the murder of Jake L. Hamon, rich Oklahoma politician, is entitled to a fair chance to redeem herself from a fair chance to redeem herself from for many years. The public is disposed to give her a fair chance. She should not be persecuted or otherwise hampered in pursuance of any honest, modest work she may take up.
But the suggestion of this girl going into moving pictures to reveal the timacies of her life becomes a question of public concern. The purity and wholesomeness of pictures is a matter that should interest every right-minded person. Clara Smith Hamon should not be given a chance to film her life. The recently incorporated Affiliated Picture Interests of California, and other organizations and individuals connected with the production and exhibition of pictures, in vigorously protesting against the pleurization of the Hamon scandal have done themselves credit. "Exploitation of vice and crime" should be relegated wholly from the motion-picture industry, and it is gratifying to note that the leading producing and exhibiting interests are firmly allied with the common sentiment that the quality of pictures must be lifted to and kept at high level, and this, it is pleasing to note, is being done voluntarily by many producers and exhibitors.
THE CENTER of population of the United States is in Indiana. But the
Anaheim!
among its various industries has one of the largest dairys in Northern Orange County. This dairy pays out thousands and thousands of dollars every year to employees and these people spend practically every dollar of their money with the Anaheim merchants. Yet many of the merchants of Anaheim, and some of them whose names appear on the "Trade In Anaheim" page of The Plain Dealer, buy their dairy products from outside dairies when they can get a better product right at home. To prove this, all that is necessary is to get a bottle of our
and place it with a bottle from these outside dairies in a cool place and keep them both for at least two days and see what happens.
Could I get the combined trade of the merchants, restaurants, soft drink establishments and people in general, thousands and thousands more dollars would come right back to Anaheim trading center, instead of going to other towns as now.
If we are really in earnest about this "Trade In Anaheim" matter the merchants, restaurant men and soft drink people at least should play the game.

MORE LEMONS WILL GO EAST·BY BOAT
A carload of Orange-co lemons was on the docks at San Pedro today for loading on a steamer containing another consignment of lemons for the Boston market.
The fruit was sent from the Villa Park packing house, going over in two truckloads.
The shipment consists of the "golden" and "Comet" brands of the Central Lemon Agen, of Villa Park. The ship upon which the fruit will be loaded will leave tomorrow, it is understood.
Tomorrow and Friday the same association will transport two carloads of the same brand of lemons to New York and Philadelphia markets.
Three carloads of lemons from other associations within the district of the Orange-co Fruit exchange will go along with the Villa Park product. The lemons will be shipped by the Tustin Lamon, San Joaquin and Golden West Assns., all in the vicinity of Tustin. Each association will supply one carload.
The boat upon which these shipments will be made is scheduled to call Sunday.
The fruit shipped some weeks ago has not reached its destination but is expected to arrive in an Atlantic port shortly. There have been no reports as to the fruit enroute, but it is believed it is standing the voyage by water as well as other shipments that have gone forward.
It is understood that "something is doing" in the operation of a line of steamers by the California Fruit exchange. Just what this something cannot be ascertained, but it is stated by persons who are in position to know that there is every probability of the line being organized.
The committee from the California Fruit exchange, to which was delegated the labor of assembling facts and details to guide the board in determining whether or not operation of a line is feasible, has asked for further time, and did not report at the regular weekly meeting here.

HIS PIG "ANNIE"
Each contestant in the Farm Bureau Pig club contest that closed recently at Garden Grove wrote an essay on "The Story of My Pig."
The following story was written by Emerson Stanley, an eighth grade boy, and was given highest per cent by the committee that graded the joys records.
"One day last fall the assistant farm advisor came to the school and explained about the agricultural clubs. Procuring an entry blank, I immediately marked it 'Pig Contest,' and sent it in. Six other boys did likewise.
"I then and several times later received instructions on the care of my pig. Mr. Waters came around quite often also.
"I celebrated Armistice day by building my pig pen.
"Two days later, Nov. 13th, we went above Los Angeles, and each bought a purebred Poland China sow, which Mr. Waters had selected in preference to sermba."
