DRIVE TO PRESERVE SO.CALIF.MISSIONS Believing that the old Spanish missions in California are of the utmost value to the state from a commercial and historical, to say nothing of a spiritual point of view, knowing that they are a priceless treasure, impossible to duplicate, and realizing that unless immediate action is taken they will crumble and totter into irreparable decay, John Steven McGroarty, author of the Mission Play, with the co-operation of the Mission players, and the able assistance and support of E. K. Hoak, has originated the Mission Preservation fund. It is a plan so simple and direct, so absolutely devoid of the evils or red tape, and the complexities of differing interests, that it carries the conviction of success once. When the artistic, consistent and perpetual preservation of the California missions as its object; it makes the co-operation of every Californian either by birth or adoption to become a member of the Mission Preservation fund. The annual dues are one dollar—less than two cents a week. Is there a man, woman or child in California who can't afford to give that much for the preservation of the most significant historical monument in the country? Virginia has made Mt. Vernon, the home of Washington, one of the most beautiful and interesting places in America; Massachusetts has immortalized Plymouth Rock; Pennsylvania has carefully guarded and preserved Independence Hall—what with California do (or her mission) It is an individual question. From a commercial angle,the drawing power of the missions is of interest to everyone. Thousands of tourists come to California to visit them,and shudder at their pitiful condition,and wonder at the apathy of the people who should preserve them. So you are asked to help Those interested in organizing the fund,did so out of sheer love for the missions.No salaries will be paid to executives,these are no over head or under hand expenses to be met merely incidentals of stationery and postage,as the offices and clerical staff of the Mission Play will be utilized to handle the business of the Mission Preservation fund. When John Steven McGroarty,the of loyal California heart,wrote the Mission Play,它 was with the idea of awakening people's minds and hearts to the value and beauty and importance of the missions,and with the hope of their ultimate preservation. In the new Mission Playhouse there will be a suite of offices for the Mission Preservation fund.The two interests are linked in purpose,and the first hundred dollars of the fund Mr. and Mrs. Barna Brena were the Sunday and Mrs. R.C.Davis Ployd West of the Maintenance Co.,left San Diego to attend Mr. and Mrs.Leslie daughter,Virginia.of were the guests yost helm friends.

The Egyptians and Greeks probably used them, though none of their specimens have been preserved. The oldest almanac now extant is in manuscript of the thirteenth century. It is preserved in the British museum. The oldest known printed almanac was compiled by the astronomer, Purbach, in 1450. The U. S. postal department has been notified from London that, effective immediately, optical glass, including lenses, prisms, and like optical devices, and scientific and artificial instruments are no longer prohibited importation into Great Britain by parcel post.

The open cesspools arouse a stench that is almost unbearable, and certain to bring epidemics, it was violated. The prohibition law is agranly violated. It was declared, automobiles filled with suitcases and bags containing liquor beetle there and taken away at all hours of the day and night. Gambling is carried on also, it was stated. Indecent exposure is the rule rather than the exception. It was declared, naked children running about in the presence of everyone, and even coming up to the pavement, and watching lawn parties of American young men and young women. Rev. H. C. Banney, presiding elder of Orange-coe of the Seventh Day Adventist, 1907 West-Fift-st, stated that the petition was not couched in too strong language, but that it was true from the beginning to the end. He stated that he was surprised that such conditions should be tolerated in a city like Santa Ana. He stated that he had traveled from the Great Lakes to the Gulf of Mexico and from the Atlantic to the Pacific but nowhere, not even in the negro settlements of the south, had he seen anything like it. It is a disgrace to Santa Ana, he declared. He stated it was deplorable in that it forces enlightened Americans to live in uncivilized surroundings. There are 175 people now in the Mexican camp on West Fifth-st, and there are two toilets for this number. There is supposed to be a cesspool, he said, implying, however, that this is only a supposition. Added to this, the Mexicans bring in wagon-loadds of drenched horse manure, piling it around for the wind to take up its stench. "We simply can't tolerate it," he declared. "How can we when breeds all kinds of disease. And that isn't yet. Often times, the young folks will come over to a lawn party being given by my children on the lawn in our yard, and naked Mexicans of five or six years or older will come up to the pavement and watch the party. What effect do you suppose this has on those young people's morals? It is just like living in an uncivilized country." Mrs. Minnie A. Bray showed the council members pictures of the conditions in that vicinity, stating that they were horrible and a distaste any community. START WORK ON RIG FOR NEW OIL WELL GARDEN GROVE, March 29. Active work on the construction of the first rig on the Garden Grove Petroleum company's location on W.Ocean avenue was to be commenced this morning and the work of building the rig will be rushed to completion as rapidly as possible. This will be a 114 foot derrick and will require 42,000 feet of lumber. The first car load of lumber for the rig arrived from San Pedro Thursday, and the irons and other equipment have been ordered and will be on location within the next few days. The new program of the Radcliffe Chautauqua this season will have, in addition to the usual six lectures and six entertainments, two numbers of special interest to the little folks. This part of the program will be under the direction of Miss Maybele La Hatte, who has a splendid reputation as a story-teller, and excels especially in her platform work before large and varied groups of children. This special treat for the kiddies has been arranged through the local chautauqua committee and it will be something that the boys and girls will remember for a long time. These stories, supplemented by the games she will introduce, are real formative influences, teaching self-mastery, co-operation, generosity, sympathy and fairness. Special efforts will also be made toward continuing influences through the medium of a Young America club. Great interest is taken among the people of this community in the coming chautauqua, which will be here three days, April 5, 6 and 7. The officers of the W.C.T.U. met with Mrs. Amy Rolfe Tuesday afternoon to appoint superintendents for the coming year, which resulted as follows: Americanization, Mrs. K.G.

Singletary, of Riverside, is brooding over the loss of a black leather bag containing three $5 bolls, $5 in silver, a $100 bond and some personal letters, which she left in the seat of an auto stage at Orange Saturday afternoon. Miss Singletary told the authorities that two Mexicans were seated beside her in the crowded stage and she supports one of them of having picked up the bag after she left the stage. The stage driver and other persons in the stage had no knowledge of the loss. THE INDUCTION COIL The principle of the induction coil, without which we would have no wireless and no x-rays, was first demonstrated by Michael Faraday in 1831. In 1835 Pohl made a coil using this principle, but his experiments were unsuccessful. The first really successful induction coil was made by Rubmkorff, in 1851.

Mrs. Grigg was taken to Dr.Violett's hospital Sunday and is now on the road to rapid recovery. TRADE WITH REPUBLICS OF LATIN AMERICA America's foreign trade decreased considerably, in February, as compared with the same month a year ago. This is true both as to commerce with Europe and with South America. It is the decline in trade with South America which should give the greatest concern to this country. Figures show that, within the last eight months, imports from South American countries have declined $188,000,000; while exports have fallen off $153,000,000. This indicates danger—the menace of lost trade for the United States, unless this country bestirts itself.Latin America must be cultivated—wooed if you please, just as a high-spirited Spanish beauty has to be; to be won. This country has opportunities golden with promise in its trade relations with Latin America.Britain must improve these opportunities mediously, or else those republics will give the nation's share of their trade to Europe. A.W.Thomas, Phone 456—Dr.W.J.Lawrie on April 1st will move from the Dreytus bldg.to the Kroeger bldg.now being remodeled. New York Letter by Lucy Jeanne Price NEW YORK. March 29.—Not only are blonds bad for men's eyes, as a scientist of some sort pronounced recently, but they are dangerous as arbiters of death. Such, at least, is the opinion of Judge William Morris of the municipal court. "There will be no blondes on this jury. They are too flickle." Those are the words with which he dynamited the atmosphere of the court room the other day just before the selection of a jury. Then he directed all the brunette women in the court to come before him immediately for examination as Jurors. "Sometime, somehow, a blonde must have interfered with his honor's life, liberty and pursuit of happiness; and he isn't going to let them try it on his prisoners," was the decision of his audience. New York City is going to be lifted up one floor, and be a second story town in at least one sense, before much longer, says its architects. The street level will be given up completely to public passageways and automobile parking space, while shops and offices will begin their existence one flight up, was the declaration generally accepted at the New York section of the American Society of Civil Engineers, the other night. The congestion of the streets seems to make no other plan workable. It's too bad, from the viewpoint of practical results, that an benefit entertainment managers can't take advantage of the innovation adopted the other night at the boys' club affair, and let the audience get first hand acquaintance with the people to be benefitted. Naturally it can't be done in most cases. But from the moment the Hippodrome stage re- ranks to protest the decision of the New York Customs Cutters club to make belts compulsory. The decree was issued the other day to make this spring's trousers with no buttons to hook galluses to has argued a considerable part of our male population. "We're willing to wear belts for the looks, if you insist," wall those 180-pounders—and up, "but we DON'T want to wear them tight enough to do away with our inside suspenders." The human sense of humor doesn't change, says Joe Jackson, the Hippodrome clown. And he can make out a pretty good case for his contention. In 15 years he has changed neither properties nor costume, and his act remains fundamentally the same as it was when he decided, years ago, at ten minutes' notice — to forsake trick bicycle riding for clowning. Of course he has added bits from time to time, but every one is a variant upon the discomfiture of an innocent victim of circumstances. "Only when the crowd ceases to laugh at the sight of a prosperous church-goer chasing his silk hat down Fifth ave on Easter Sunday, will I find myself out of style in the theater," says Jackson. BEET FARMERS GET PLENTY OF WORKMEN Beet farmers of Orange-co at this time are having an easy life as compared with corresponding periods in the development of beets last year and the year before. The growers have greatly less to worry about so far as securing help for thinning and hooping operations is concerned. Where, in the two previous years, the farmers were "sweating" under the wage demand of laborers and were unable to get all the help needed even at the extravagant wage, today they are on easy street for there is labor in abundance and men are crowding... It’s too bad, from the viewpoint of practical results, that an benefit entertainment managers can’t take advantage of the innovation adopted the other night at the Boys’ club affair, and let the audience get first hand acquaintance with the people to be benefitted. Naturally it can’t be done in most cases. But from the moment the Hippodrome stage revealed 600 excited youngsters from New York’s east side, representing pretty nearly every nation on earth, and heard them sing—occasionally far away from the tune — “America, the Beautiful,” the Boys’ club meant something to them which it never in the world would have done if that personal contact had not been made. It was hard to realize that there were 6400 more boys in the club who couldn’t crowd onto the spare space; but 600 were enough to make almost any point. New York subway crowds may sometimes lose their courtesy, but New York newspapers never. The language of this item proves it. The marriage of Delbert Eugene Benn, an actor; living at 228 W. 46th st., and Miss Florence Buchnah, an actress, of Des Moines, In., took place yesterday. The papers said, “Mr. Benn is 45 years of age, and Miss Buchnah said she was 25.” Could any doubt be more nicely covered? Fat men are rising in valuable time are having an easy life as compared with corresponding periods in the development of beets last year and the year before. The growers have greatly less to worry about so far as securing help for thinning and hoeing operations is concerned. Where, in the two previous years, the farmers were “sweating” under the wage demand of laborers and were unable to get all the help needed even at the extravagant wage, today they are on easy street for there is labor in abundance and men are crowding them for work and at a wage quite different from that obtaining two and three years ago. The thinning season is at hand. Mexican contractors are in the field writing contracts for this class of work and they are begging for jobs, where before they were independent and made the farmers kneel to them. Last year and the year before the ruling schedule for thinning and two hoeings was from $11 to $15 an acre. Mexicans today are glad to secure work at $7.50 an acre. This is apportioned as a rule $4 for thinning, $2 for the first hoeing and $1.50 for the second hoeing. The beet acreage in Orange county, at least that portion under contract to the five county factories, is not as large as it was last year, according to reports. The slump in the acreage is hasered to a disposition of some of the farmers to change to another crop and let their lands rest up from beet production. Others have not planted because of a lack of confidence in a rainfall sufficient to carry a crop. WE MAKE NO “BULLS” in our radiator repair work.
