I am glad to be able to sell you that the Buy-in-Anaheim campaign is facing with brilliant success. Public-funded merchants and good citizens all right behind my efforts in advertising the city, the resources and the merchandising advantages to be gained here. Later on I am going to publish in the Plain Dealer a complete roll of honor, which will show with pride the names of our best boosters.

Have you seen the Boot Shop, that sparkling little store where the famous Nettleton shoe is sold? It is one of the most artistic shops in the country and Mr. Brandenburg, one of the partners is solely responsible for the quaint scheme of things. Max Engle, the other partner is an old time shoe man and so we find the best of quality and service in this very pretty home.
Keep spending your dollars at home and the dollars will keep coming back to you to be re-spent. Spend away from home and they come back—never. Your patronage of local stores will react on your own prosperity more than you would suspect. It is a scientific doctrine. Try it and see for yourself.
Some have it that we are just emerging from the "jazz age". Musical instruments come and go but the old reliable piano goes on for ever. The high class piano is the instrument that has never become a mono with music lovers. It is not a charm and remains in popular favor. I was in to see Mr. Danz of Danz Music Store the other day and you can take it from me he has those splendid types of pianos that grace our homes for generations. He is strictly a piano man—"not a price cutter but merely one who sells quality for less." If you love the piano as the rest of the world loves it and if you want a good piano, then see Mr. Danz.

Capt. Eddie Rickenbacker made a most glorious name for himself in the air service during the big war and now he is making the famous Rickenbacker Six automobile—a car that embodies many paramount features, born of the best brains in the game. Mr. H. O. Stanton is the distributor for this district and the people in this vicinity are much interested in the Rickenbacker—"a car worthy of its name."
Speaking of aviation I have a hearty invitation from C. E. Gregory, commercial aviator stationed at Santa Ana.

Building Within 30 Days
Grand was broken today for the new foundry, machine shop and forge of the Oil Tool Service Manufacturing Co. at Santa Ana-st and the Santa Fe tracks. The big building is expected to be completed within 30 days. The company, consisting almost entirely of Anahiemers, has a clear title to the site.
The company, besides plenty of capital—$70,000 out of the total of $100,000 stock, all common, has been sold—is fortunate in possessing the services of a man thoroughly experienced in the operation of the business and possesses important industrial connections. J. G. Maroney, foundry superintendent, is a graduate of the American Steel school at Pittsburg, Pa., and the McLain System at Milwaukee. At 22 years of age he was put in charge of 1800 men at the Ashland, Ky., works of the American Steel Co. There he was for years foundry adjuster for the National Foundry Ass'n, traveling all over the country and ending machinery troubles. He came to Los Angeles originally and started the old Union Tool Co.'s foundry. For some time he was manager of the Whiting-Mead Commercial Co.'s plant at Upland. While superintendent of the Jahn Piston Co. in Los Angeles he received the first prize for pistons at the last exhibit of the Auto Dealers' Ass'n in San Francisco. The prize was awarded for best quality and grade of iron.
The plant here will start with 15 men and add a man or more daily until the force numbers 60, which it is predicted will be within 30 days. The shop will be in full operation within that period. The foundry will be opened first, then the machine shop and finally the forge.
Among the equipment of the factory will be a 36-inch lathe, as big as any in So. Calif. A complete line of lathes will be operated in the machinery department. Oil tool machinery and repairs, general repairs, the manufacture and repair of oil pumps, etc. will be among the company's specialties.
The company's officers and department heads are: B. D. McAlvay, president; M. N. Putnam, vice president; Paul Rock, secretary-treasurer; MeAlvay, head of machinery department; Maroney, foundry superintendent; Putnam, sales manager; and Bock, office and business superintendent.

Speaking of aviation I have a hearty invitation from C. E. Gregory, commercial aviator stationed at Santa Ana. This old boy—he is almost six feet four so he should carry away all altitude records—was formerly in the mall service, flying postals and Roy—Gardiner—proof registered mail from Omaha to Salt Lake. He is well known in Orange-co and will continue to do commercial flying here for some months. Take a jump off with him—he is an expert bird and lucky, too. I have accepted a flight with this bird and if I live to tell about it, I will give you the particulars later.
The city of Anaheim has the most evident, steady growth of any place I have ever visited. I spent a season in the Klondike and saw towns spring up over night and grow to thousands. That was the mushroom stuff. There is nothing left today. But here in this wonderful country one can literally feel the place growing and advancing. Newcomers arrive daily; they are all prosperous; they are looking for a place to settle and a life to invest and work—they will backbone of the future development of the community. What they come for they find and in a surprising short time we find them engaged in some kind of business. They are a part of Anaheim, they live here and they buy here. And Anaheim grows on in just that manner.
Was in to see Mr. Gatti of the Gattl Meat Co. yesterday. He used to have a cattle ranch not far from the city limits away back in '86. All of his life he has engaged in the cattle and butcher business. His fine new store in East Center-st is a model shop. His portable butcher shops—completely equipped and on motor cars—are the talk of the surrounding country. In this way people living out of town can have the very best of butcher service.

FIRST SERVICE OF BAPTIST CHURCH
The first service or the new English Baptist congregation here was hold last night in the Cornell studio, where several more men, women and young people signed as members. The attendance numbered 36 and the total membership now is more than 40. The organization will be formally made next Wednesday evening, when Rev. H. B. Foskett, general field missionary of the So. Calif. Baptist convention, a state organization of which the Santa Ana Baptist Ass'n is a member, will come here. A prayer meeting will be held every Wednesday evening hereafter. The officers consist of a clerk, treasurer, deacons—usually four or five—and trustees—usually six or eight. A constitution and by-laws will be adopted by the church.
Just Like Wally Reid, Drive Ford from Dale
Itention picture fiction became fact when S. N. White of Pocahontas, Iowa, with his bride and two friends, arrived here in a Ford touring car after a drive of approximately 2400 miles from Ames, Iowa, in eight days. Driving only in daylight hours, except during the last day the party averaged more than 250 miles per day. Outside of a puncture, by a nail, the only repair was to a valve spring and that cost only five cents. White is the son of H. N. White, the hardware merchant, of 128 North Sycamore street.
Very little time on any occasion was lost from being stuck along the road, and the party repeatedly gave aid to other motorists, including owners of large cars.
The party left Ames a week ago Monday. Ames is about 55 miles north of Des Moines. They spent two days resting up, a day each at Wayne, Neh., Columbus, Neb., where path, Big Pine, Mojave they struck the Lincoln North Platte, Cheyenne Wy., Salt Lake City, Goodyear cutoff to Ely, Los Angeles. Between 9:30 am and 7:30 pm yesterday and five a.m. did 400 miles, driving aloud.
In addition to the four a boy travelled with them or two, and hundreds of luggage was carried in suit cases, which were for express at Salt Lake; camping outfit, etc. Every night except the last With Mr. and Mrs. W Herbert Laube of Dublin and Miss May Maroney White hasn't lived with since they moved here five years ago. He has been Iowa State University and his home here. Laube and money will return to them.

FATAL TO O
Turkey Gobbler Sits on Hatching of Eggs
Big hen's eggs are becoming as common on ranches hereabouts as at the average county fair. So L. B. Ferrell, wishing to relieve the monotony, came into the office today and told of a turkey gobbler that is playing brood hen to a setting of eggs.
Already he has spent three days and three nights on them. When he leaves the nest he carefully covers the eggs with shavings or straw; when he comes back, he just as carefully removes the covering. The eggs ween put under him when he staked to set on nothing at all.
It is a real turkey cock and weighed 25 pounds last Christmas. Now he's a lot heavier than that. He's so much on the job that he hardly eats. Ferrel's place is about three miles south and a half mile west of here, not far from the Katella sub-station.

C. G. Lewis Says There's Difference Between Dreamers and Visionaries

$1,700,000 IN NEWSCHOOL BUILDINGS
Reflecting the jump in attendance in all or nearly all the communities of the county, new school buildings, additions, etc., underway or provided for by voted bond issues aggregate approximately 1,700,000, a new record; R. P. Mitchell, county superintendent of schools, today. In addition, several other new schools have been proposed some of which undoubtedly will be started before the year is over.
Of the total, $1,000,000 for the new high school buildings or addition at Fullerton, Anaheim orange Garden Grove, Tustin and be or two other points. New grammar schools at Santa Ana will cost -250,000, while the other improvements are distributed in $50,000 to $60,000 parts over the county.
Not only does the unpreceded school building program indicate much larger school attendance, but Superintendent Mitchell, bus it show that the county is growing and that the county is in excellent condition economically speaking.
The figures given by Mitchell are a conservative statement, he said.
AUTO CLUB MOVES TO NEW BUILDING
The district office of the Auto Club of So. Calif. will be moved to the new building on So. Los Angeles-st. early next week, according to Manager Paul Allen. There are larger office buildings of the club in So. Calif., but none finer. Many new features to facilitate business are being installed, and the quarters inside and out are unusually ornate.
C. G. Lewis Says There's Difference Between Dreamers and Visionaries
An address on civic organization was delivered last night at the Fullerton B. of T. by C. G. Lewis, of Los Angeles, organizer of the city of Palos Verdes being built near Los Angeles.
F. C. Krause, president, suggested that the board try to get Mr. Lewis for permanent secretary.
He state that Palos Verdes is to be the most beautiful city of its size in the world when it is finished, and that it is going to radiate its influence throughout So. Cal. and that real estate values in those cities who follow its example are going to jump ten to one. He stated that land which was purchased in Palos Verdes some time ago for $312 an acre now brings from prospective purchasers the offer of $10,000 an acre. He urged the business men of Fullerton to give more attention to civic organization, and stated that if his suggestions took root he expected to be able to come back to Fullerton within two or three years and behold the results.
He said, among other interesting things, that beauty and art live in this world, while the more practical monuments of man fade away and perish. Dreamers and visionaries belong in different classes, he thought.
"A dream may be the effect of broiled lobster," declared the great builder, "but the vision begins with thought, based on something tangible to which imagination can attach and draw a picture which man's work can make possible.
"So it was with Atascadero and so it will be, in his estimation, with Palos Verdes. Frank Vanderlip, who sold the Palos Verdes grant to Lewis telegramged from London yesterday, offering $100,000 for a choice of ten acres, and the average cost of the whole tract was only $16 per acre. This was brought about by the plan for beautification of that wonderful series of minesas. Lewis believes He told Be Fullertonians that they must consider beauty and art, in further Pinning their community, and then everyone will want to live there.
Is the belief of Mr. Lewis that Los Angeles, within the time of the avenue man now living, will rank as one of the three largest cities in the world. The quality of citizenship now coming westward is the pick of the earth. Most of these people have money and come to help bid up this great western empire, with works of art, parks, libraries and the imperishable things of life. He promised to deliver the principal address at the Anaheim of C. annual dinner in July.
Secretary Fraser was the other speaker, having been invited to tell something of the advantages of a C. of C. Lewis.

Jail Break Attempt
LOS ANGELES, June 22—The admission that they tore up the floors of the Long Beach city jail gained E. R. McKee and George Murphy a sentence of from one to five years in the penitentiary from Superior Judge Houser.
Sentence was pronounced on the pair following their admission that they had violated the statute against defacing jails. Their excuse was that they had dropped 60 cents through a crack in the floor. The authorities contended, however, that McKee and Murphy were attempting to make a "get-away" from the jail.

NAME TEAMS FOR C. OF C. CAMPAIGN
Team material was selected yesterday by Harry D. Riley to captain the work of building up Anaheim C. of C., beginning next Monday, June 26. Twenty teams will be captained by Mesrs. Barney Hartfield, Wm. Wallop, Charles Lyrabroad, H. N. White, Lee Eicholtz, J. E. Rodden, A. A. Cohen, Paul Clausen, E. M. Chalmers, Joe Stroup, "Doc" Barnes, Dr. H. A. Johnston, J. T. Lyon, Louis Danz, Fred Ahlborn, Bill Goodrum, K. L. Turton, Bob White, Ernest Gielow and Wm. Jackson. These will choose their lieutenants and proceed to comb the city for new members and also collect delinquent dues, so that the beginning of the third year of the chamber's work will not be clouded with inefficiency. There are a few unpaid pledges. Some of the members have forgotten to remit, as usual in nearly all organizations of civic nature. Anaheim is probably as clean in this respect as any similar body in California it is believed.
Those who are in arrears are asked by Chairman Riley to call at the office and settle their small outstanding accounts, thereby giving the workers less collection work to do and more time to devote to getting new recruits for community building.
NEW RECORDS FOR CITY WATER DEPT.
All records in gallons of water pumped for the use of Anaheimers by the city were broken on Monday, with 1,378,300 gallons. In fact, the city has had several days of records within the same week, two of them 1,291,664 and 1,252,234 gallons, respectively. Last year the best record was 1,152,000 or thereabouts. A larger population, not an extended period of warm weather, is regarded as a cause.

BRITISH OFFICIAL IS SLAIN BY ASSASSIN
LONDOS, June 22—In the most sensational British assassination since the historic murder of the Duke of Buckingham, Lieut. Gen. Sir Henry Wilson, field marshal of the empire and knight commander of the bath, was shot and killed by two men, believed to be Irish radical agents, at his official residence in London early today.
The assassins fought a running gun battle with the police in fleeing the scene of their crime; shot three officers down, wounded a pedestrian and were finally captured by a constable who blocked their pathway and knocked them down with his club despite the menace of their revolvers.
After falling into the hands of the authorities one of the assassins attempted suicide but failed.

Plain Dealer Class-ad Brings Big Results
Louis Danz, well-known music dealer, is convinced Plain Dealer advertising pays.
"We accepted in trade for a player piano, 40 tons of hay," says Danz. "Then we put a small class-ad in the Plain Dealer offering the hay for sale. Response was immediate. Buyers stood in line. We must have had at least 50 and could have sold twice as much. You can say for me that Plain Dealer advertising gets results."
