GATHERING MEMENTOES OF ROOSEVELT The Roosevelt Memorial Association's movement to found a permanent exhibit of manuscripts, personal mementoes and other material things relating to Theodore Roosevelt has the hearty approval of President Harding. This is a public service, Mr. Harding says, in a letter to the Memorial Association. Colonel Roosevelt already has been given a niche in the Hall of Fame, so far as his countrymen's estimate is concerned — alongside George Washington and Abraham Lincoln — "the third in America's triumvirate." President Harding observes that "we would give much today if a group of Washington's friends or a group of Lincoln's associates had, after the death of their leader, set about collecting mementoes and memorabilia as your organization is collecting them; we know those two great lives only too fragmentarily." Mr. Harding goes on to say that, thanks to the good work the Roosevelt Memorial Association is doing, "posterity will know Roosevelt more completely than it will know any of his predecessors." This should be made an unvarying custom in this country, to gather together all that would cast light upon the works, the thoughts and the ideals of America's great men. This should be done without partisan bias and in the broad spirit of Americanism, which takes note only of a man's greatness of thoughts, ideas and achievements, and not the political faith which he held. AMERICANS TALK MOST. BY TELEPHONE Americans—to coin a word — are the telephoniest people on earth. There are nearly 10,000,000 telephones in this country and the number of telephone conversations run into many millions annually. Development of the telephone has been phenomenal. It has become an indispensable factor in the business and social life of modern times. Just a word in appreciation of the telephone operator. She is quite human, of course, and like her critics, she sometimes makes mistakes. But, considering the prodigious amount of difficult, trying work which she does, it is remarkable that she makes so few mistakes. Oftentimes the complaint that is made of her is unjust. It may not be her error or her fault. A great many users of telephones are careless, slovenly and exasperating in calling, and try the patience of "central." It is this class of persons, usually, who are unreasonable and abusive toward operators. And yet seldom does an operator defend herself, although, in many instances, she would be justified in doing so. VILLAGE GOSSIP Hundreds of adults and kiddies who attended the Huntington Beach fair can testify to the fact that "cotton candy," made from beet sugar, is just as sweet and fluffy as that made from factories is lower than it would be were the local product consumed. It is declared that every sack that is sent out is the equivalent to taking a dollar from the net returns to manufacturers.

Was in a hurry parcel, she took a fact that she hend twenty cents was a battered ticked dimes effeily that she wore she saw ahead twelve of hers Suddenly there w wheel had come deeply apologetic VILLAGE GOSSIP Hundreds of adults and kiddies who attended the Huntington Beach fair can testify to the fact that "cotton candy," made from beet sugar, is just as sweet and fluffy as that made from cane sugar. The merit of the beet sugar in candy making was demonstrated by the Holly Sugar corporation in a booth, "cotton candy" being passed out without charge. It was a wonderful demonstration in the way of successful contradiction of the belief held by some that beet sugar is not as serviceable as cane, say those who were in charge of the booth. Thousands of sacks of sugar are made in Sou. Calif., annually from beets, and thousands of sacks, not all of them beet products are consumed annually by residents of the southland. Beet growers and sugar manufacturers assert that the general public of the southland does not consume as much of the beet product as it should. They assert that every sack of sugar sold elsewhere strikes at the pockets of the beet growers. Sugar exported from the south has to absorb freight charges, with the result that the net price to factories is lower than it would be were the local product consumed. It is declared that every sack that is sent out is the equivalent to taking a dollar from the net returns to manufacturers, with a proportionate loss to the beet growers. The price growers are paid for beets is based on the net selling price by factories. A. J. Visel and H. K. Makosky were home today from a tour of inspection of land crop conditions at Ensenada, Lower California, and are enthusiastic over the possibilities of development there. They declare that so far as the land situation is concerned the condition of the land, with reference to present growth, is about as the Irvine rdnch was some years ago, before cleared of cactus and brush. They cite the gathering of a bunch of grapes 16 inches long and weighing 11 pounds as an example of what can be done there in the way of growing grapes—and without irrigation. Unimproved land that will produce good walnuts, in their opinion, may be purchased for $25 an acre, according to the statement. FLANNELETTE NIGHT WEAR Big roomy garments of best material.

Sycamore St. PHONE 209-M GOOD BRAKE LIMITS TRAFFIC HAZARDS The most efficient brakes for automobiles ever developed are standard equipment on all the new Cole Aero-Eight models. The new brakes were subjected to a series of tests a few days ago in Indianapolis. In every instance a Standard Cole $70, fully loaded, battered the standard of breaking power fixed by the American Auto. Assn. The Cole tests in comparison with the official A. A. A. standards are as follows: Cole A.A.A. Miles per hour Stop in Stop in 10 miles 8 ft. 9 in. 13 ft. 20 miles 38 ft. 50 ft. 30 miles 90 ft. 112 ft. 40 miles 150 ft. 200 ft. The figures show conclusively that the Cole car, with its highly efficient braking power, is much less a traffic hazard at any speed than the ordinary automobile. It is regarded as remarkable that at any speed there should be such a vast difference in the efficiency of the Cole system. At 40 miles per hour, for instance, the average car will travel fifty feet farther than the Cole when the brakes are applied. WOMAN NOW CHOOSES BATTERED TAXICABS NEW YORK, Oct. 6.—I met the most cheerful woman the other day that I have come across in a long time. So very bouyant was she that I inquired into her frame of mind. This was its well-spring: She had just arrived triumphant from some distance uptown. And because she was in a hurry and carried a heavy parcel, she took a taxi, in spite of the fact that she had only one dollar and twenty cents in her purse. It was a battered old machine but it ticked dimes efficiently; so efficiently that she worried about the walk she saw ahead of her when all twelve of hers had been ticked up. Suddenly there was a jolt. A rear wheel had come off. The driver was deeply apologetic and worried about his humped shoulder; but she smiled. La Habra Items LA HABRA, Oct. 6.—During her husband's absence in the north, Mrs. W. H. Rhodes will be the guest in Los Angeles, of her daughter, Mrs. Len Hart, of Santa Barbara-st, for a few days. Entertaining with a theater party and dinner, the losers of the Whittier-ave Whits club, in their recent contest were hosts at the Morosco theater and at a luncheon afterwards, M Los Angeles, on Monday evening. The guests were Mrs. W. H. Hole, Mrs. C. Milliken, Mrs. Mitchell, Mrs. F. E. Proud, Mrs. Hinahaw, and Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Crumrine. The hosts, with Dr. Charles Milliken as chairman, were Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Walker, Mr. Hole, Mr. Proud and Mr. Hinahaw. A motor trip was taken by Mr. and Mrs. Snow and sons, to Marengo Valley beyond-Banning, Saturday. The party was accompanied by Charles Varney and will be gone until Wednesday. Their objectives was to look up some government land in that vicinity. Deck hunters were disappointed in their shoot at Big Bear lake over the week-end. Those to try their luck were L. J. Wester, Mr. Farrand, Grant Sherman and Mr. Terry. The wily bird flew too high for a successful shot. Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Taylor and daughters and their visiting guest, Mrs. L N.Hickam, of Columbus, Mo., sister of Mrs. Taylor, and mother of Mary Louisa Hickam, were the dinner guests of Mrs.O S Catland at Santa Ana-Sunday. The new arrival from Missouri did not have to be "shown" as she is delighted with everything Californiaan. Mrs. Hickam will remain at the home of the Taylor's for the winter. The driver of the city paper truck was held up at the county line and robbed of $22, by three men who threatened him by the use of a revolver. The holdups were driving a Dodge car, Nightwatchman Van Curen was notified.

Lemon and State Highway. Try a Plain Dealer Want Ad. ORANGE MEN MAKE SERIES OF TRADES N. T. Edwards and W. A. Phillips of Orange, have been making a series of trades. They sold 20 acres of oranges and lemons on E. Chapman-ave., Orange, to Herman VapDick for $65,000, accepting nine acres of oranges on extension of No. Main street north of W., Chapman-ave. The nine acres were taken in at $46,000. The nine was sold to W. T. Precht and a fine residence at southeast corner of Grand-ave, and Washington-st., Orange, was taken. The residence was traded to Ed. Ward, Orange banker, for seven acres known as the “Old Hargraves Corner” on the southeast corner of No. Main-st., and E. LaVita avenue, Orange. Edwards and Phillips plan to subdivide this seven acres into one-acre tracts, selling them at $4,000 each. McFADDEN PLACE AT S. A. SUBDIVIDED The old James McFadden place on So. Main-st., Santa Ana, is being off- McFADDEN PLACE AT S. A. SUBDIVIDED The old James McFadden place on So. Main-st., Santa Ana, is being offered for subdivision. It has been known since Santa was laid out, McFadden for a long time being the leading figure in Orange-co. politics. Frank Borchert has purchased 70 acres which he will set to walnuts and he has an option on 70 of the remaining 110 acres. He announces if a syndicate is ready to take the 110 acres for subdivision purposes, he will release his option. The 110 acres are valued at $135,000, says C. M. McCain, who is handling it. AWARD CONTRACT FOR ROAD PAVING Supervisors have awarded to Steele Finley, of Santa Ana, a contract for surfacing a half mile of Irvine boulevard with asphaltis concrete. Irvine boulevard is paved from Newport road to a point west of the Irvine ranch house. It is the east half-mile of the boulevard, where no surfacing has been done, that is to be surfaced under the Finley contract. The top will be two inches of asphalt on the present base, which is four-inch concrete. Finley's bid was $3888. He was the only bidder. BUM CHECK GIVEN JUDGE Justice of the Peace C. W. Warner, of Huntington Beach, has a bad check on his hands. At least, he says it was returned to him by the bank upon which it was drawn by K. Fujino, a Garden Grove Japanese. Fujino and H. A. Smith of 209 S. Olive-st, Los Angeles, were brot before Warner on charges of killing non-game birds. Game Warden C. F. Maddox accused each of them of killing tallers, shore birds. Each was fined $25. Smith paid cash. Fujino gave Warner a check for $25. That was the check that came back. Warner has sent word to the Japanese to come in and pay cash or go to jail for 25 days.
