Stay home once in a while and spend your dollars where you make 'em. Buy In Anaheim and save time, worry, fatigue, money and disappointment. Remember the time when we used to kid the grocer about the sand in his sugar, about the levity of his weights, the chicory in his coffee and other alleged offenses? That's all over now—the sugar's pure, the coffee is 100 percent coffee and the scales don't lie. If you don't believe it go to Edmiston's Modern Grocery store and find out for yourself. Best of quality and service, this old Anaheim grocery is building up their trace year after year. Here's a story that's worth repeating, providing you like a story with a moral to it: Back in the revolutionary days one of our forefathers stood on the river bank of a Virginia stream and settled a financial account with a man opposite shore. The sum was $51, and there being no business at it, to afford means of crossing the river and handing the money to his creditor, the man threw the dollar to the other and the debt was paid. A few months ago in exactly the same place and under the same conditions, two men met to settle a debt for the same sum. The borrower threw the dollar to the lender across the river, but this time the money dropped in the stream and was lost. The answer is simple—a dollar will not go as far today as it did 150 years ago. That joke holds good in other parts—but does it go in Anaheim? No. Take one dollar today and go to any fair-minded and progressize merchant in this town and you will get a value and quality that will surpass anything of the kind in the history of the U.S. Spend your money at home; BUY-IN-ANAHEIM, and I'll wager that you will be treated fairly and be entirely satisfied. In mid-summer you can find a Christmas atmosphere right here in Anaheim. Where? you ask. On the second floor of Weber's Book and Music Store. I hope I am giving no family secrets away when I tell this to the kids. But it is there—an all the year round Xmas department, just as Santa Claus would have it.

Saved from a crazed synch mob early today by the use of tear bombs, John Straub, ex-convict and alleged confessed murderer of Miss Alice Mallett, was rushed into hiding by Coroner John Mills. Led by the slain girl's brother, Harold Mallett of Ontario, Ore., 3000 determined men participated in an all-night siege of the county jail repeatedly demanding possession of Straub, until deputies hurled the gas bombs into their ranks, causing them to disperse in confusion. Threats to lynch the prisoner were heard on every side as soon as rumors of his confession reached the street. As the word was passed from mouth to mouth the jail became the center of the wildest scenes ever experienced in Jackson. Straub, former Jackson prison inmate and alleged pervert, is said to have admitted attacking Miss Mallett with an axe, first ravishing her and then almost beheading his victim os she neared the Florence Crittenden home, of which she was matron, last Thursday night. He was the only white man detained. First reports of the confession were circulated at 9 p.m. Within half an hour fully 1000 people were about the jail.

If you are not buying, talk to him about some of the vital questions of the day—he is equal to the conversation and a mighty good fellow, too. How thankful we all should be that we live in its fortunate land. And how sorry we all should feel for those poor victims of that terrific gale that came down on New York on Sunday and wrought havoc among the pleasure seekers. Humid, but beautiful, the New York day signalled no warning of the approaching devastation. It was most egregious, coming as it did on a clear summer day. Providence has been kind to us of California that would reflect the more on our favorite position. But we do not defy the wrath of the elements. I had a most pleasant chat with Messrs. Dresser and Bonnat, the producers of the famous White Lily Bread. The bread is as pure as the name it has and the plase is as neat and clean as a pin.

Pay Income Tax at Once Urges Collector LOS ANGELES, June 14.—Collector of Internal Revenue Rex B. Goodcell, in an appeal to taxpayers today, urged those who have then advantage of the quarter payment plan to pay the second installment of their income taxes at once. The zero hour is 4:30 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. The law requires the tax money to be in the collector's office by that hour. Mailing a check at the last minute will not prevent the usual penalty, 5 percent of the amount due, and the payment of all the tax. Fewer taxpayers took advantage of the quarterly payment plan this year than last. But 25,000 persons elected to follow the plan this year. To date, they have not displayed any anxiety or activity in meeting the second payment. That is why the collector got busy today with his appeal.

TWO NEW OIL FIELDS ARE ASSURED With Oil Operators The Chanslor-Canfield Midway has settled all the doubts about the Redondo field by bringing in an $80 barrel well on the Del Amo lease. It will be remembered that the Del Amo discovery well was brought in the first time some six months ago at 100 barrels. The production came on an upper sand at 3000 feet, the oil produced for a few days and made heavy oil. Decopening to 3500 bought the well into the lower leads and the result is an 800 barrel oil producing 81 gravity oil. The Redondo well at Redondo represents the Chanslor-Canfield's first wild cat attempts in the Southern field. The well was located by the C. C. M. O.'s geologist, W. G. Blodgett. Mr. Blodgett made an extensive study of the field before locating the well, then a coast line examination was made and ocean soundings taken. The discovery does great credit to the science of geology and to the genius of Mr. Blodgett. A commercial producer at Redondo signal for the starting of much en, a meeting will be held somenchanler-Canfield has already marked 15 new locations.

Ensign, of Anaheim, Helmer and Theriot of Santa Ana, and a John Doe Corp. in connection with the sale of units in the Huntington Crude Oil Co. opened today before Superior Judge R. Y. Williams in Santa Ana. The plaintiffs are President Adolf Thomas of the Golden State National Bank, A. E. Hargrove, secretary of the Anaheim Realty Board, F. H. Harrison and 30 or 40 others, of Anaheim, Fullerton, Santa Ana, Placentia, Los Angeles, etc., who bought stock in the company, promoted, it is alleged, by Ensign and Heimer. The name of the corporation, mentioned now for the first time, is not given. The plaintiffs seek the return by it of leases which alleged the corporation held in trust. Inasmuch as the lease of 20 acres sub-leased to MacIntyre Bros. is practically the only asset of the Huntington Crude Oil Co., the question is being asked here whether the former are the "John Doe Corporation." The oil company has a lease on one remaining 10 acres piece, which will expire next October unless drilling is started. The corporation is supposed to have received the leases which Ensign and Heimer received from K. W. Edens to whom they paid $9,000 in cash and $5,000 in stock. Ensign was the principal figure in today's proceedings. He was called to the stand to relate the history of his connection with the oil company and sales of its stock. The company had 50 acres originally. Of the 50 units, 10 were to be retained by Ensign and the other 40 sold off at $1,000 each. Scarborough, Forgy and Reinhaus and L. A. West, both of Santa Ana, Allen and Lyon of Fullerton, and Dan V. Noland of Los Angeles, represent the plaintiffs, Leonard Evans of Anaheim, and Roland Thompson of Santa Ana, the defendants. S. A. MAN PASSES AWAY SUDDENLY Stricken with heart failure on North Parton-st near Fourth-st, Santa Ana, last evening, G. L. Kennedy, a resident of the county seat city for 10 years, died before aid could do any good. Kennedy was driving a Ford coupe and with him was John Duncan, a friend. The presence of Duncan prevented what might have been a serious accident. Kennedy was reaching for a match or something in his pocket when attack came. Exclaiming, "I'm done," he lapsed into unconsciousness. Bystanders hurried to the car to render help, and Dr. R. A.

Anaheim Has Fire Supply, Experiment The semi-monthly examinations of milk for purity and richness begun herb about six months ago at the instance of Dr. J. W. Truxaw, city health officer, have resulted in a wonderful record of quality for local dairies, according to the physician, who said that Anaheimmers were getting milk which almost invariably fell under 25,000 bacteria per cubic centimeter, which is the requirement for the certified fluid. In fact, the count usually falls around 10,000 or lower, although 200,000 is within the law, he said. Of five dairies which distribute milk here three showed counts of ANAHEIM BAPTISTS MAY FORM CHURCH Baptists of Anaheim who are interested in forming an English speaking church of that denomination are invited to meet Friday evening at the Cornell studio, 146 W. Center-st, over the Anaheim Pharmacy. Mrs. B. F. Jones has canvassed much of the city and has found 60 English speaking Baptists not now identified with any Anaheim congregation. There are known to be many others who have temporarily joined other churches here in the absence of a church of their faith. Rev. H. B. Foskett, of Los Angeles, representative of the So Cal. Baptist Convention, will be here for the meeting. WEED TEETH Consider caused this nut-st neat when a pe weeds wha a Mexican blaze was dangerous; damage wi cific Tele which was several loions. Man some lines service we again before DARTS There is little doubt about the union Oil Company's Francis well at Redondo. This well has shown a lot of oil and gas sufficient to make it new. Water trouble has held the try to production back. Francis No. 1 stands re-cemented at 3851-614, the bottom of the hole is 3906. Developments at Seal Beach continue to look as encouraging as any wild cat field needs to look. Bowings in the Dabney Syndicate will at 3000 feet makes it almost easy to wager on a producer. The Seal log is checking out a little higher up and seems to indicate that production will be found at about 200 feet shallower. Developments at Fairview look interesting enough to have a new oil company go into the field, and for the Fairview Oil Company to start a second well. The new company in this new prospective district is the Portland Petroleum Co. The Portland Co. leased a substantial acreage alongside the Fairview Oil Company's Goldsmith property and will be drilling at once. The Fairview's new well is located on the Goldsmith base and the rig is under construction. Fairview No. 1 is drilling at 2000 feet with indications now that "pay" will be struck at 2800-000 feet. W. H. Smullen, former Standard Oil chief, and one of the st oil men in the West, is in charge,ullen regards the Fairview field with considerable favor and his agent has some weight.

Dr. Truxaw pointed out that in Los Angeles 25 cents is obtained for certified milk, milk within the 25,000 mark. C. H. Griffin, a private bacteriologist of Los Angeles, has been conducting the tests here, which are made without warning to the producer. WEED FIRE BURNS TELEPHONE CABLE Considerable excitement was caused this morning on South Walnut-st near John Cook's residence, when a palm tree caught fire from weeds which were being burned by a Mexican employed by Cook. The blaze was more spectacular than dangerous, and practically the only damage was to a cable of the Pacific Telephone & Telegraph Co., which was burned in two, putting several local lines out of commission. Manager E. A. Beard hustled some linemen to the scene, and service was expected to be normal again before the day is over. DARTS FROM BEHIND The executive committee of the Second Annual California Valencia Orange Show met last night at the Chamber of Commerce to hear the report of the manager, treasurer and cashier. There were present besides Herman Stern, Chairman, Messrs. G. M. Simpson, E. B. Camp, E. M. Chalmers and E. C. Rudnstrom of the Committee, besides Godfrey Stock, Otto des Granges, Paul Clausen, V. W. Hannum and the Manager, who read a long report with complete information as to the operation of each department of the Show recently concluded which he stated was not less than twice as large an undertaking as that of 1921. The Auditor's report of admission receipts showed that tickets were sold to 36,384 adults and 3,148 children, giving a total of $18,-968.85. The Treasurer's report showed receipts of $37,929.35 and disbursements, up-to-date, of $32,-002.00, leaving a balance in the bank at the time of the meeting, of $4918.35. There are still many bills to be met and some money to come in and it was impossible at the time of the meeting to show how nearly this year's undertaking paid for itself. Property bought newly this year has a salvage value of nearly $4,000 and the property of the Association is insured for $5,000. The Manager reported that several show promoters in California and Arizona seem anxious to purchase the set of overhead illumination used in the Citrus Department this year which should net the Association something like $2,000. It was decided to recommend to the Chamber of Commerce that the California Valencia Orange Show hereafter own its own tentage and electrical equipment, it being believed that such ownership would pay for all the material within 4 years out of rentals and the saving occasioned by such ownership. It was also recommended that the Chamber of Commerce issue to the subscribers of 1921-22 the basis of several plans by which the money borrowed in the two years which totals $14,440.00 can be gradually returned, or written off in such cases where the generosity of the individual will so dictate. It is thought that this year's Show will leave a balance nearly sufficient to wipe out the loans occasioned by its staging, but the Committee thinks this balance might better be kept as a nucleus for the larger and better show that it recommends for 1923. The report states that it is the opinion of experts in the snow business that the California Valencia how from now on will gain sufficient financial support to pay itself out and show increasing profits each year. DARTS FROM BEHIND TRUCK AND IS HIT An accident occurred about eight o'clock this morning near the railroad crossing on West Center-st., when an auto driven by Lotus H. Loudon of the Plain Dealer, struck a young Mexican boy named Barrios, hurting his arm, but not breaking any bones. The accident occurred when London, who was driving at a medium rate of speed, well within the traffic regulations, was passing a truck. The boy darted out from behind the truck and Loudon swerved into an orange orchard, but the fender struck the boy on the arm. He was taken to his home, and Loudon offered to pay for a doctor, leaving some money with the parents and telling them to forward any physician's bills to him. Witman, Eyeight specialist. Kenneth Mathes Wins Plain Dealer $5 Prize The Plain Dealer is middling a check for $3 to Kenneth Mathes, RFD 4, Box 4, Anaheim, for having the closest guess to the total paid attendance at the Second California Valencia Orange Show.
