"For 18 months I was on duty in the desert regions," said Father Fitzpatrick, "and during that time interviewed hundreds of tourists, and not once did I have one of them ask me about Orange county. Several years ago when I came to Anaheim it looked like a slow town. But at the present day I want to say that Orange County is very much on the map and Anaheim is principally responsible for putting her there. There is a vast change in the town during the last few years and organization did it. "If there ever was a time in the history of the state or the county when we need to pull together that time is now. You men have a great responsibility on your shoulders; will you measure up?" he asked. And there was a unanimous burst of "Yes!" "I have fallen in love with Orange county," he continued, "and have decided to build my home here. Some time ago I was asked to undertake a most difficult piece of work by certain citizens of the county. And that is to promote a spirit of cooperation and pull-together in all sections of the county. To carry out this piece of work a new publication has been started. The Orange County Review inspires to be the mouthpiece of the county as a whole, giving fair representation to all sections. It is dedicated to the people and interests of Orange county. We want your help in making the county one united whole; in making it the greatest and best county in California and the United States."

But Anaheim should do better yet. The number of memberships reported today should be trebled, or more, to give Anaheim the kind of a commercial organization it deserves. This organization must serve, not only the present population within the city limits of Anaheim, but also the hundreds and thousands that live outside the city limits and make ready for the thousands in comp. It has tremendous problems to consider and solve. This is the moment when the money and service of each individual counts most. This is the time when you can help most. Don't refuse now to do your utmost share for the city that is your home and on whose prosperity you depend for a living. What you do NOW boars interest for the community so long as it shall stand. Your work, therefore, has an accumulative value that is worth even more than the initial outlay either in money or service. NOW is the time to give your best for Anaheim. When thru with Your Plain Dealer, Mail to East Orange County Plain Dale LEADING NEWSPAPER OF NORTHERN ORANGE COUNTY Anaheim, California, Tuesday, July 5, 1921 YOUTH DROWNED AT ANAHEIM LANDING Making an attempt to go to the assistance of a young woman who had gone beyond the breakers at Anaheim Landing Sunday afternoon, Orel Peters, 6125 Salem Place, Hollywood, was caught in the strong tide and sank out of sight before aid could reach him, although a desperate attempt at rescue was made by several bathers and occupants of a fishing boat. Mr. Peter, who was 21 years of age, was spending the day at the beach with his father and mother and other members of the family, who recently came here on a visit from their home in Carson City, Nev. The young man came to Los Angeles a year ago and was engaged as a mechanic in a garage. BOY DROWNS AND 7 BATHERS SAVED IN NEWPORT RIP-TIDE Frank Jones, 18, of L. A., Sinks at Newport Beach; Brave Swimmer Rescues Brother Despite heroic rescues by onlookers and life guards, which were effective in saving seven lives yesterday's celebration of the national holiday at nearby beach resorts had a tragic note occasioned by one drowning—that of Frank Jones, 18, of 631 W. 81st street, Los Angeles, who lost his life at Newport Beach. Young Jones and his brother, P. S. Jones, 27, of the same address, were caught in a rip-tide running off the community camping ground at Newport and before aid could reach the bathers the younger brother sank. NUMEROUS A IN HOLIDAY FIREWORKS CAUSE DEATH OF BOY AT FULLERTON SUNDAY Clemmons Farrell, Jr., 14, Succumbs to Burns Resulting from "Sons-of-a-Gun Last Wednesday" Clemmons Farrell, Jr., 14-year old son of Mr. and Mrs. C. Farrell of E. Glenwood-ave, Fullerton, who was badly burned last Wednesday when a package of fireworks, known as sons-of-a-gun, ignited in his pocket, setting fire to his clothing, died Sunday morning from the effects of the burns. Funeral services will be held at the underlaking parlorors of Angus McAulay on No. Spadra-rd at 2 p.m. tomorrow. Rev. J. T. Houser officiating. Interment will be in Loma Vista cemetery.

AVOCADA MAY GET BUREAU SECTION The proposal to establish an avocado section in the Yarbor Lane area is being considered by local authorities. PRESIDENT MAY SEE ORANGE-CO HARBOR President Warren G. Harding may inspect Orange-co harbor the first time he comes to the coast. This is the word received today direct from the White House. Despite herioc rescues by onlookers and life guards, which were effective in saving seven lives, yesterday's celebration of the national holiday at nearby beach resorts had a tragic note occasioned by one drowning—that of Frank Jones, 18, of 621 W. 81st street, Los Angeles, who lost his life at Newport Beach. Young Jones and his brother, P. S. Jones, 27, of the same address, were caught in a rip-tide running off the community camping ground at Newport and before aid could reach the bathers the younger brother sank for the last time. He is supposed to have been seized by a cramp. The fatality was featured by a thrilling rescue of the other brother as he was sinking for the second time. He was saved by Eldridge-C. McFadden of Perris, who leaped into a rescue boat just as it was being shoved off by young G. E. Walters, 4171 So. Hobart boulevard, and Edward Chereot of the same address. McFadden, divesting himself as best he could of his clothing while the boat fought the swift-running tide, arrived at the spot just as the older of the Jones brothers shrieked a despairing call for aid. With the inner tube of an auto tire McFadden succeeded in keeping the exhausted swimmer afloat. At the same time, two other bailers caught in the same spot, were being rescued by the other two men in the boat. They were R. F. Summerville and W. H. Kidd, both of Anaheim. Mrs. A. J. Jones and Mrs. C. E. Rose, mother and sister of the drowned boy, were witnesses of the fatality which so prostrated them they had to be given medical attention. A few minutes following the drowning at the camp ground beach, three boys came near losing their lives in the same tide as it ran under the Newport Beach wharf. G. G. Shoemaker, a fisherman, seeing their peril, selved his boat and rowed out to them, arriving on the spot just as the boys were on the verge of exhaustion. With great difficulty he succeeded in dragging all three into the boat. It was some time after they had been taken ashore before they were revived. The boys, evidently from Los Angeles and unaccompanied by older persons, declined to reveal their names and disappeared in the crowd. J. B. ROOT EXHIBITS RECORD HEN EGG Speaking of hen fruit, J. B. Root is exhibiting a hen's egg (at least, Mr. Root says, there are no gums owned on that block) that measures 3-5 inches in circumference the oblong way, of course, and weight four ounces. Some omelette timber we would say—What? AVOCADA MAY GET BUREAU SECTION The proposal to establish an avocado section in the Yorba Linda farm center has met with a great deal of success and the first meeting of the section will be held Tuesday, July 5, at the Yorba Linda library, in the evening. At this time the plans of the organization will be perfected and a definite outline of the year's work be decided upon. So much interest has been manifested not only by the growers but by those to whom the possibilities of this section as an avocado center, appeal, that it may be decided to enlarge the section to a county department. FIRST SERMON BY REV. WALKER SUN. The Reverand M. Walker, who has been called to the pastorate of the First Presbyterian church, will deliver his initial sermon next Sunday morning. Rev. Walker comes with high recommendations and the congregation is anticipating a prosperous year. The pulpit has been filled recently by a supplying minister from Los Angeles. A manse will be erected very soon for the convenience of the resident pastor. GERMAN CONFERENCE MEETS IN ANAHEIM The Germ Methodist church is making plans for the annual conference which will be held late in September, here. This gathering of ministers and active laymen is always important one and arrangements are being made with unusual care. Communion service will be held Sunday morning, when the district superintendent, the Rev. Durbahn, will be present. GEORGE HERMAN, JR., SUCCUMBES Mr. and Mrs. R. B. Herman went today to Fullerton to attend the funeral of their little grandson, George Herman Jr., who passed away Sunday afternoon following a brief illness. The baby was one year and one day of age. Funeral services were held this afternoon in the Seale undertaking parls and interment was made in the Loma Vista cemetery. PRESIDENT MAY SEE ORANGE-CO HARBOR President Warren G. Harding may inspect Orange-co harbor the first time he comes to the coast. This is the word received today direct from the White House at Washington. It came by letter to R. L. Bisby, secretary of the Orange County Harbor Assn. Bisby wrote the president two weeks ago extending him an invitation to visit the harbor when he comes to the coast. It was then reported that the President was contemplating a trip to Southern California this summer and that he would visit his sister, Mrs. E. E. Remsberg, Santa Ana. 4000 ACRES SIGNED IN BLACKEYE POOL Over 4000 acres of blackeye beans have been signed in the blackeye pool. This report was given at a meeting of blackeye bean growers at Irvine. Indications are that 8000 or 10,000 acres will eventually be in the pool. W. C. Jerome, W. J. Cheney and John Osterman, the committee that has handled the pool—the past three years, was reappointed for this season. There was a good attendance at the meeting and there was considerable enthusiasm over this method of handling the crop. W. C. Jerome presided and W. J. Cheney acted as secretary. GOVERNOR SUGGESTS BEACH IMPROVEMENT Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Lee of the Rosa Lee ranch and Mr. and Mrs. Geo.W Hamler spent Sunday and Monday at the Chas, Schuler cottage at Hermosa Beach. They heard the Independence Day address of Governor Stephens yesterday. The governor, who is a great fisherman, made the statement that if the authorities at Hermosa had the tom cod withdrawn from their present habitat so near the shore, he would unhesitatingly pronounce it the best fishing place in the United States. SHOOT MIXED DOUBLES HERE So Cal. Mixed Bowling doubles will be rolled on the local alleys on Wednesday evening. There will be 12 teams. Try Plain Dealer Want Ads.

CITY OUTGROWING WATER, LIGHT AND SEWER FACILITIES Anaheim Growing Faster Than Any Other So. Calif. City Excepting Long Beach During the past two years, the growth of Anaheim has outstripped that of any other So. Calif. city, with the possible exception of Long Beach. In the city last named there has been a slackening in building activities for the past few months, whereas Anaheim is going ahead, by leaps and bounds, to the great perplexity of the city fathers. Especially during the last 12 months, the demand for extension of water, electric light and sewer services has been so great as to render necessary the calling of an election to authorize issuance of bonds to meet these imperative expependitures. The items in the bond election, called for July 19th, are altogether for permanent improvements and it is but just that the necessary expense should be spread over a period of years, in a measure commensur- MRS SIGNED MCKEYE POOL of blackeye beans in the blackeye was given at a meetbean growers at Irsare that $8000 or will eventually be in W.

The girls were changing their clothing following a dip in the surf when they observed across the narrow street from their cottage what they at first took to be a bonfire. Closer observation proved that the side of the building was ablaze. Volunteer fire fighters threw sand and water on the flames, putting them out before they became dangerous. There was a heavy wind blowing at the time and a few minutes delay might have meant the loss of a large part of Newport. The girls were spending the 4th at the C. C. Randall cottage, other members of a weekend party being Herman J. Ruicks and family and Chas. Clark and family of Anaheim. DEPUTY CALLED TO OVERTURNED, causing injury to one woman, resulting in her death, and injuring two others. The woman who died shortly after the accident was Mrs. Emma Powell, of Los Angeles.

Pete Terras, a driver for the Anaheim Truck and Transfer Co., was injured yesterday between Anaheim and Long Beach when his Ford turned turtle with him while turning on the highway.

There were a number of traffic violators before Judge Howard this morning to give their regular fine of $5 for first offense. Two cars are being held at the McMahan Garage on No. Lemon-st for repairs. They were damaged in a smashup between Anaheim and Santa Ana yesterday afternoon about 3:30 o'clock.

COLLARBONE BROKEN IN MOTOR ACCIDENT Several minor accidents were reported to the Anaheim police department the fourth, the police records showed no accidents in which there was injury or loss of life. A large number of cars belonging to owners in various cities of So. Calif. were smashed up, however. An accident in which two women were painfully injured was reported to the Auto Club of So. Cal. It occurred at 6:30 last evening at the corner of the Buona Park and County-rda when a car belonging to J. C. F. Robb of San Pedro smashed into a car belonging to H. C. Robinson of Pomona. The accident occurred when Robb swerved south to avoid hitting a car which was coming from the north, and thus smashed into a car coming from the east. One of the ladies suffered a broken collar bone. The other was not injured seriously. CLOSER observation proved that the side of the building was ablaze. Volunteer fire fighters threw sand and water on the flames, putting them out before they became dangerous.

Randall cottage, other members of a weekend party being Herman J. Ruicks and family and Chas. Clark and family of Anaheim. DEPUTY CALLED TO PLACENTIA BY FIGHT Deputy Sheriff Zabel was called to Placentia at noon yesterday, it being reported the Dempsey-Carpentier fight was being reinacted in a pool room there.
