SIGNAL HILL WILL LEAD ALL FIELDS With Oil Operators In a few weeks Signal Hill will be leading all other fields in So. Calif. for production if the present rate of bringing in big wells is maintained. Last week five thousand barrels of new production was added to the output of the Long Beach field. This week it appears from three to four thousand more will be added. The best completion of the well is the Shell Co.'s Foster No. 1 completed at 3187 feet. This well came in at 1100 barrels and continues to flow at this figure with out any change. The pressure on the casing head registers 525 pounds, and is an assurance that this big producer is to have a long life. Goddard No. 1 the prize well of the Shell Co. and the Long Beach field has been on production a month and flows steadily at 2095 barrels. Harsch the big well of the west side flows 1500 barrels without an interruption. These wells are samples of what some of the producers are getting on Signal Hill, and there is little doubt now that Signal Hill is destined to be So. Calif.'s greatest oil field. From all indications now the Cal-Tex Oil and Refining Co. has its future made. The showing in this company's Kirkpatrick No. 1 is undoubtedly the best that any well has ever shown in the Long Beach district or anywhere else for that matter. Samples of shale and sand taken from the well at 3000 feet respond to the ether test with a quickness that is nothing short of magic. The sands and shales carrying what looks like a very light oil began showing at 3000 feet and continued unbroken to 3036 when drilling was stogged to set the 6% water string. Oil men who have seen the showings are predicting a 1000 barrel well for the Cal-Mex. Few companies have had a harder time to get over the top than the Cal-Mex. The financing was done at a time when it was not easy to put an oil company over. Vern Dumas the man who had a vision for his company selected a property not well thought of at the time the excitement on Signal Hill started. Now He is being given credit for opening up or rather EVANS WILL OPEN STUDIO MAY 1ST Dale Hamilton Evans who for the last several months has been the efficient secretary of M. Eurene Durfee, architect, is this week having his position to open a music studio, with classes in private tutoring in public school subjects, at his home, "E" Tru-Wil Court 321 So. Lemon-st. Mr. Evans has served several months efficiently at the organ at the White Temple and at present is the able director and pianist at the First Presbyterian church. He has shown to the public his ability in the realm of music and has called forth many requests for musical instruction from him.

Oil men who have seen the showings are predating a 1000 barrel well for the Cal-Mex. Few companies have had a harder time to get over the top than the Cal-Mex. The financing was done at a time when it was not easy to put an oil company over. Vern Dumas the man who had a vision for his company selected a property not well thought of at the time the excitement on Signal Hill started. Now. He is being given credit for opening up or rather extending the Long Beach field to heretofore unbelievable bounds. The west side of the field is now proving up to be the best at Long Beach and it looks now that the Cal-Mex is located in the cream of the west side. The Apex Oil corporation the entrant into the Long Beach field starts off with a record. This company was organized and financed in 48 hours. Capitalized for $100,000 of which $60,000 has actually been paid in the new company has its finances where there will be no cause for further worry. The Apex Oil Co., has taken a lease on seven and one-half acres known as the Wilson property located on the northeast corner of Orange and Willow-sts. The Orange-co Drilling Co., has contracted to drill the first well and development work is to commence at once. The Apex Oil Corporation is a closed corporation represented by 42 prominent Los Angeles and Long Beach men. Vern Dumas is president and general manager, Fred C. Christ is vice president, and H. H.

Luther, 43, died very suddenly between 4 and 5 o'clock Tuesday afternoon, a victim of heart failure. Funeral services were held Friday morning from McAulay's undertaking parlors in Fullerton. Deceased had been as well as unqual when in the afternoon working on the James Tuffree place, where he was employed, he called to Mr. Kirby of the adjoining ranch and asked him to take him home in his car as he was feeling so badly, stating that he felt he was going to fall, like he had done just previous. Mr. Kirby got his car out at once and Mr. Luther could hardly reach it after stopping his tractor. They took him home where he expired almost immediately before the doctor could arrive. His heart is believed to have been weakened by the attack of influenza which he had a few weeks ago—as he was accounted a strong and sturdy man. His death comes as a great shock to those who knew him, having lived around Placentia many years he was well and favorably known. His wife and 10-year-old daughter survive. Mr. and Mrs. August Pinenbrink left Monday for a trip to Germany and other points in Europe. Fire caused much loss and suffering in the two small homes between the O. G. packing house and the water supply well. It is rumored that Mr. Pinenbrink was cleaning the gas stove when it exploded, painfully burning all his face and hair. He was rushed to the hospital for relief. His son was also burned somewhat. A small trunk was saved but all their other belongings were claimed by the flames. Mrs. J. E. Scott underwent a major operation at the Anaheim sanitarium on Tuesday morning. A fire started on the Bradford oil property early Tuesday morning and raged violently for two hours when it reached the gasoline condenser where it caused a terrific explosion; hurling an immense tank into the air so high that it looked no larger than a bucket. One rancher who felt the shock and looked out saw a beautiful skyrocket in the sky. The tank was full of gasoline and was aflame as it rose in the air, and it turned over and over it sprayed gasoline over everything beneath it. It landed a thousand or more feet away. The home of Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Mann and of Mr. and Mrs. L.A. Berchley were covered with the gas and caught fire burning to the ground. They escaped with their lives, but everything else was a total loss. One man was very badly burned by the explosion and was rushed to the hospital for treatment. He lost all the skin off his face and it is feared he may be fatally burned. A bad accident was narrowly escaped on Sunday in Carbon Canyon in front of the Edwardson place where Mr. and Mrs. Jack De Maris and daughters, Leona, Vera and Eda Mae spent Monday in Anaheim and Fullerton. Mr. and Mrs. J. Gale entertained their son and daughter-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Gale of Brea Cunday. Miss Margerette Flynn spent Saturday and Sunday with her sister-in-law, Mrs. H.

AGREE ON AIR MAIL FUND WASHINGTON, April 27 — House conferences have agreed on the Senate amendment for an appropriation of $1,900,000 for the transcontinental air mail service。 wide, which go all the way round the skirt, are stitched to almost hip length, thus simulating a smoothly fitting yoke. The blouse, with long, tight sleeves, fastens in front over a bit of vesting. The quaint touch is established by a wide double collar and double flaring reverses of muslin, edged with a narrow scallop of shadow embroidery. The reveres cross in front with the right one caught far to the left side and ending in a flaring frill below the satin girdle. Similar frills are attached to the under side of the sleeves from hems to elbow. A strange little frock of an altogether different type is the sports dress of ivory knitted crepe, which is slender and short, and so plain that it might be a severe little bungalow apron instead of a copy of a Paris production. It is trimmed with hollow oblongs of Killarney green taffeta, placed about here and there over the skirt, with one on each side of the bottom of the house front and back and one on each short sleeve. They are hand-stitched on with silk. With this dress is worn a cape of ivory knitted crepe, lined with green. The cape is an oblong piece of the material, bordered all the way round with green, and worn with the general effect of a shawl, with ends handing long toward the sides. The collar is a long scarf of green with deep fringed ends. A suit-dress which delighted avenue shoppers was made of thick wool velour in platinum gray, and was trimmed with nothing more than groups of wide tuckings. The blouse is made with a yoke below which the material is slightly full and loosely pouched above the belt. Wide bell sleeves are trimmed with tuched pieces set above hems. Loose panels which completely cover sides of the skirt and almost meet, front and back, are weighted with wide tucks eight inches above the hem. There is a narrow, stand-up collar and a narrow belt knotted at the side. Here in the city we have a foreign stock population—people who were born in a foreign country or whose parents were—as large as the whole population of Chicago, Detroit and Boston. The Russian population is larger than the population of Warsaw and there are 106,000 more Italians here than in Naples. We are moving on April 11 from our office over the S. Q. R. Store to 179 West Center street.
