Vol. XXIV—No. 247 VALENCIA Bathing Beautie CHAPMAN FEELING FINE OVER GREAT ORANGE EXPOSITION Compares Struggles of 28 Years Ago With Opening of Show by President Harding While talking with the President of the United States at the opening of the first Calif. Valencia Orange Show, I could not help but think of the struggles thru which I had to go 28 years ago when I first came to California and started to learn how to grow oranges, nor of 25 years or even 22 years ago when I tried to sell them," declared C. C. Chapman, honorary president of the show, in an address from the main bandstand of the big tent last evening. Mr. Chapman had been introduced by Atty, T. L. McFadden as the Orange King, the father of the Valencia industry. Mr. Chapman was bubbling over with enthusiasm and his infectious good humor appealed to the great crowd of visitors who stopped their Mr. Chapman had been introduced by Atty. T. L.

Mr. Chapman was bubbling over with enthusiasm and his infectious good humor appealed to the great crowd of visitors who stopped their inspection of the various displays to hear him. "In those days I had to be content with $1 per box for my fruit," declared the speaker. "People laughed at me when I wanted them to buy my summer oranges," but I ham complete faith in the Valencia orange and stuck to it, because I could pick it in March or I could leave it on the tree until November. I remember one firm at Lima, Ohio, who wrote that they couldn't sell three boxes of oranges in three weeks in July when deciduous fruit was on the market. Since then I have sold that firm three carloads in that length of time. "But the trade found out that the Valencia orange would keep. I told them that if they couldn't sell them today, they could sell them tomorrow; if not tomorrow, then next week. They said: 'Well, if it will keep like that, send us some.'" "I remember how proud I was the first time I was able to get $5 for a box or oranges. I printed a little dodger and circulated it among my friends." "After all those struggles, just think, the president of the United States talks by long distance telephone clear across the continent to mark the opening of an exposition for the Valencia orange. "I think this show is a wonder. When I realized its scope for the first time I was amazed. I want to say that Anaheim has the best bunch of boosters of any town of its size in the United States. Over in Fullerton we can get together 500 men in a bible class but when it comes to putting over a thing of this kind, Anaheim is right there. These men who have worked so hard and enthusiastically, are deserving of the greatest credit, for somebody must have worked a great deal to have accomplished all this. "I believe without a doubt that this is the most artistically arranged show of the kind ever held and I believe I am qualified to speak since I served as judge for several years at the San Bernardino show. At the first attempt, this show offers a pleasing blending of colors that has not been accomplished at San Bernardino in 11 years." Chapman was warmly applauded following his address. McFadden's address of welcome and introduction was a glowing eulogy to Miss Valencia, the speaker touching upon the wonderful development of the country with the de- BONUS FOR OILMEN WHO BROT IN 2500 BBL.CHAPMAN WELL It pays oilworkers to bring in a gusher for C.

WHO BROT IN 2500 BBL.CHAPMAN WELL It pays oilworkers to bring in a gusher for C. C. Chapman. On the bringing in of the latest Chapman gusher, known as Chapman No. 2, by the Union Oil Co., which came in quietly doing 2500 barrels and is now the biggest producer in So. Calif., Chapman presented each member of the drilling crew with bonuses ranging from $100 to $25. The following men have signed a letter of appreciation to Chapman: Drillers—R. A. McCoy, M. E. Feardon, J. D. Boughner; derrickmen—H. Nixon, R. Johnson, B. Davis; rotary helpers—Roy Stroka, W. Hyde, B. Hemerley, M. Alderman, Paul Trook, C. Homburg, Clyde Ledbetter, Jack Connor, Paul C. Price, Ralph Farnsworth. Following is the letter: Your gift of $100-$25 to each of us was gratefully received and it is our wish to express to you our sincere appreciation for it. We keenly realize that this act is purely voluntary on your part and that we were fully paid by our company for the service we rendered, and we would have rendered the same faithful service had it been on the property of a poor man with no possibility of further reward. In this we were again reminded that it is a part of the infinite plan of the Overruling Power that the great commercial affairs of human affairs are carried on by the harmonious cooperation of capital and labor. Both are alike important and the more closely they work together the greater degree of success and plenty is realized by all. In favoring us in this generous and kindly manner you have greatly assisted in our financial affairs, and you have shown practical example of the teachings of the greatest of all teachers who recommended "Peace on earth and good will to men."

JUSTICE WHITE IS NEAR DEATH TODAY WASHINGTON, May 18. The belief prevails here that William H. Taft will be named by President Harding as White's successor should the chief justice die. WASHINGTON, May 18. The chief Justice of the United States Supreme Court was dying today. Edward Douglas White, former conederate soldier, one time United States Senator and a member of the most powerful judicial body in the world, long enough to see a generation of famous lawyers rise and pass cannot recover from the effects of an operation, his physicians say.

The delivering of the charter was made after a delightful luncheon in the club room in the Masonic Temple when greetings were expressed from representatives of the visiting clubs and an address given by Leslie Everett, of San Diego, governor of the 22nd district, of which Anaheim is a unit. In his opening remarks, Governor Everett touched on some of the technical points regarding Rotary memberships; attendance of the club meetings and gatherings being the first mentioned. "The organization requires attendance," he said. "First, because that Rotarian is the representative of his classification, and if he does not attend the meetings he is not getting the contact with his fellowmen. A business man would not cheat himself, and a good Rotarian will not cochat his friends by non-attendance. Then, too, if that member does not attend he is depriving some good material (Continued on last page.)"

TWENTY-FOURTH YEAR G SUCCESS Feature Tonight ATTENDANCE TODAY IS 3 TIMES YESTERDAY'S The First California Valencia show is a rousing success! Altho this is but the second day of the great exposition dedicated to Miss Valencia, the outcome is a foregone conclusion, it was unanimously asserted today by members of the executive committee and the hosts of admirers of the show. The attendance yesterday was said to be most gratifying for the first day of a first show. With the generous recognition of the magnitude and magnificence of the spectacle in the Los Angeles and other So. Cal. newspapers, as well as in the news weeklies of the movies, the attendance will increase throut the week, declare those acquainted with the handling of such events. Uniformly, the expression of every visitor at the show is of admiration and amazement at its beauty and scene. Some of the most surprised VALENCIA SHOW IS WONDERFUL, STATES EXPERT FRUIT MAN "Anybody who stays away from the Calif. Valencia Orange show is missing the greatest exposition of the kind ever held anywhere," declared G. W. Sandilands, manager of the Anaheim Orange and Lemon Asn., The attendance yesterday was said to be most gratifying for the first day of a first show. With the generous recognition of the magnitude and magnificence of the spectacle in the Los Angeles and other So. Cal newspapers, as well as in the news weeklies of the movies, the attendance will increase throughout the week, declare those acquainted with the handling of such events. Uniformly, the expression of every visitor at the show is of admiration and amazement at its beauty and scope. Some of the most surprised are "home folks" who had not brot themselves to realize what was being accomplished by the show committee. Orange-co people are unanimous in the assertion that nothing has ever been attempted before that will do so much to bring the attention of the entire nation to the wonderful Valencia orange as this exposition and all declare the recognition accorded the exposition by President Harding's address across 3900 miles of telephone wire yesterday, will redound to the benefit of the industry and county to an extent that cannot be estimated. The entertainment is proving an attractive feature. The two jazz orchestras at opposite ends of the main tent, the singers and dancers, are meeting with the approval of the crowds of visitors. This was club day at the show. A feature was the attendance of Wm. Abbott, grand exalted ruler of the Elks, just arrived from the east. Entoirage was a large number of Elks from Santa Ana. There were also present this afternoon about 150 Rotarians from So. Cal. paints here today to attend the charter meeting of the Anaheim Rotary club. There were also present a large number of Kiwanians from various So. Cal. clubs. Tomorrow will be lodge day when a number of fraternal orders will have large representations. After visiting the new Elks home now being erected on No. Los Angeles-st., the national B. P. O. E. ruler, accompanied by a large delegation of th local lodge, proceeded to the big tent where a special reception committee composed of Herman Stern, Eric Lamont, Harry D. Riley, H. A. Dickel and Romaine Berger acted as a special escort thru the exhibits. The prizes for the various fruit displays will be awarded Thursday. The prizes in the baby welfare show will be announced Saturday. Among those who have extended congratulations for the success of the show are the president and secretary of the Downey Fair and the manager of the San Fernando show, who were visitors today. Late this afternoon is was stated the attendance was three times what it was yesterday and with the continuance of the present fine weather the attendance will exceed all expectations. The big attraction at the show tonight will be the fashion display of Jewell Pathe and her beautiful fashion. VALENCIA SHOW IS WONDERFUL, STATES EXPERT FRUIT MAN "Anybody who stays away from the Calif. Valencia Orange show is missing the greatest exposition of the kind ever held anywhere," declared G. W. Sandilands, manager of the Anaheim Orange and Lemon Assn., which has one of the finest displays at the show. "I didn't realize that Anaheim could put over such a big thing. The men back of it are deserving of the greatest credit for their untiring efforts in tackling such a stupendous affair and are entitled to the fullest support of everybody," continued Sandilands. If you want to see what real Valencia oranges look like, you should stop and inspect the rack displays of the A. O. & L. exhibit. Every orange looks as if it had been especially inspected, and its face and ears most scrupulously scrubbed and tugged out in its Sunday clothes. The fruit representing the Anaheim Gloriana brand which, incidentally, yesterday on the New York auction, in a market off 50c from a few days ago, brot prices right at the top—$5.60 for Gloriana and $4.50 for Delicia—advertising Anaheim to eastern folks the same way the big show is advertising Anaheim to Cal.at this end. There are two large rack displays of the Glorianas. One rack display represents an American flag and Old Glory is spelled out in oranges at the bottom. The display shows the attractive pack which is used for this brand. The fruit came mostly from one grove but partly from two others. The feature display of the A. O. & L. includes the original paintings of heads of pretty girls which are reproduced in the various box labels used by this association. The show will advertize Anaheim and the Valencia orange throut out the nation as nothing else could possibly do, in the opinion of Sandilands.

Greatful Thanks to San Bernardino Mgr. The following telegram issued by the executive committee and manager of the California Valencia Orange Show this morning and copies were sent to the leading papers of Southern California: Fred M. Renfron, Mgr. National Orange Show, San Bernardino, Calif. Executive committee and manager of California Valencia Orange Show take this occasion to make due acknowledgment that the great success attending our show has been in very large measure due to your constant, substantial and unselfish advice and cooperation; without this vital assistance we could not have hoped to put on such a fine exposition with so little time for preparation. We appreciate your voluntary organization of a large number of the National Orange Show officers and workers to visit us during this occasion and would pledge ourselves to come to San Bernardino by the hundreds when next you put on the greatest orange show on earth. Your kindness and friendliness has done much to draw the two localities together and will be a dominant factor in furthering national recognition of the California orange industry as a whole.
