HI-Y CLUBS SHOW
FATHERS BIG TIME
The Y. M. C. A. center on So. Philadelphia-st., was the scene of another splendid gathering last evening when the local Hi-Y club with members of the Junior Hi-Y club entertained their fathers to a fine dinner and program. The evening's entertainment was arranged on the plan of a railway schedule prepared by a committee of boys with Mr. Arthur.
CALIF. SHIPS 2ND LARGEST CROP OF LEMONS THIS YEAR
According to an estimate just compiled by T. H. Powell, lemon sales agent of the Calif. Fruit Growers Exchange, the state will ship the current season 11,365 carloads, second largest lemon crop of its entire history.
Shipments in November and December, the first two months of the 1922-23 season, totaled 795 carloads of 400 boxes each. Based upon figures returned by exchange shippers Jan. 1, there will be 10,570 cars of 400 boxes to roll from California in the tent months to Oct. 31. This will bring the total lemon movement for the season up to the 11,365 carload mark.
With the exception of 1920-21 when only 500 more cars were shipped, the estimated lemon production for 1923 will be the largest ever recorded.
The estimated production this season, based upon 400 boxes to the car, is 2000 cars in excess of the actual shipments of the season 1919-20; and 1500 carloads in excess of the shipments during 1921-22.
"The quality of California lemons this season, is very fine," says T. H. Powell. "Heavy fall rains together with a mild winter have caused excellent growing conditions. The heavy picks will come in the late spring and summer months this season, making it unnecessary to hold fruit in storage. Undoubtedly this will give the Trade the finest kind of lemons for the summer market this year, and all markets may be assured of a liberal supply of these exceptionally good California lemons.
From a circular just issued by the advertising department of the Exchange, comes the statement that the winter demand for lemons has never been better; more lemons having been sold to date this winter than ever."

A neatly printed program, giving the time schedule and the local stops, was presented as a souvenir.

ANAHEIM FOLKS AT OPENING OF THEATER
Large parties are planning to go to Los Angeles Friday to attend the festive opening of the west's largest motion picture theatre, Grauman's Metropolitan, a four million dollar structure.
Gloria Swanson and Antonio Moreno are chosen to initiate the screen of the colossal new playhouse. They will be seen in the Paramount production of "My American Wife."
Without doubt the audience will be one of the most interesting assemblies of the year.
Metropolitan will speak a different word artistically than any of the Grauman houses to date. It will unite the imposing with the barbaric splendor, dignity with warmth. Three years in the building it will seat 4000 persons and embody many innovations in the structure of the stage, its modern equipment, its lighting system, its manner of ventilation and other technical features.
STUDIO RESEMBLES
CENTRAL AMERICA
The Mitragene lot is Hollywood looked like the place of a Central American city during the making of "Fortune's Mask," which will be shown at United Theater tonight. In one corner, a number of swarthy poets, barefoot but with enormous, high-eyed, straw sombreros characteristic of their race, might be seen lounging in the shade smoking innumerable cigarettes. Nearby is a group, representing the better class citizens of Latin America, with close clipped beards and Panama hats.
Military color was given by a motley army attired in various fantastic uniforms decorated with a superabundance of epaulet and gold braid. But most attractive of all were the dalty little Spanish ladies, with their heads shyly covered in black lace mantillas.
The nearness of Hollywood to the Mexican border enabled the Vita-graph casting director to secure these Latin types without much difficulty.
JUNIOR COLLEGE PLAY
Fullerton J. C. student body puts on "The Maneuvers of Jane" tomorrow night at Fullerton H. C. auditorium, Dr. H. H. Young being in charge. They expect a big attendance.

We are now booking orders for chicks from hens closely called for high egg record and vitality—Thus inauring you heavy picks will come in the late spring and summer months this season, making it unnecessary to hold fruit in storage. Undoubtedly this will give the Trade the finest kind of lemons for the summer market this year, and all markets may be assured of a liberal supply of these exceptionally good California lemons.
From a circular just issued by the advertising department of the Exchange, comes the statement that the winter demand for lemons has never been better; more lemons having been sold to date this winter than ever before. It is anticipated that the lemon deal this season will be a most successful one for all factors concerned.
One reason for the strong demand for California lemons is attributed to the unusually extensive Sunkist advertising campaign which is now supporting lemons. It is the largest and strongest campaign on lemons that Sunkist has ever conducted.
Approximately 25 million full color pages upon the various uses of lemons will appear during the season in the leading national magazines. In addition there will be timely advertising schedules in daily and Sunday newspapers and rojograve supplements of newspapers, in various sections of the United States.

MRS. LOTTIE MORSE
TELLS ABOUT TRIP
Mrs. Lottie E. Morse, who is on a world tour in company with others from No. Orange-co., writes interestingly to friends of her trip. Following are extracts from a letter written at Kobe, Japan, under date of Jan. 3.
"We reached this port about 8:30 this morning and will remain three days. It is very cold here. The sea was smooth as could be all the way from Yokohama, but I was in bed all day yesterday with a miserable cold and overcooling New Years day I guess. So I did not go on the excursion planned for the bunch today. Instead I got a rickashaw at the pier and went on a shopping tour. I found a good store, just what I had been taking for and made a few purchases.
"The people here are frankly curious about a woman's clothing and when I stop to window shop, they gather around and frankly stare and comment. They are especially curious about our shoes and hats. The Jap women and children wear no hats and of course their foot covering consists of a cloth shoe or sock with the big toe and, when on the street, sandals on stilts that clatter, clatter on the paving as they walk. They surely carry their music with them. Occasionally one sees a Jap man in American clothes, but not the women."
The store in which I shopped today was quite cold, and the proprietor had a little Jap girl carry around a jar of ashes and charcoal and whenever I sat down she placed it beside me. Very welcome, but wholly inadequate. They warn their wrists and call it enough. We are now experiencing the coldest weather we have struck and I rea Port Arthur for it will be even colder but resume we will howl for some of this cool weather when we reach India. Everyone will want an outside room then.

"Had a line from John here and he is having the time of my life on his Peking trip. The Wicketts are along and Mr. Donaldson is conducting the trip. They will strike some extremely cold weather.
"New Years is a great holiday here and everyone has a birthday. I walked about a mile up a winding gravel road in Tokyo to visit a shrine erected in memory of a former emperor and thousands of Japs, all kinds, visited it that day, and all, including high navy and army officials in much gold braid, plumed headgear and medals, and some giant professional wrestlers, fine ladies, coolies, children everybody walked from the far gate.
The shrine was not very imposing but when the people arrived they bowed, threw in some copperers, clapped their hands twice and bowed twice again and left immediately. Our guide said probably one hundred thousand would visit the shrine that day."
"Government operation does not afford the cure. It was government operation which brought us to take very order of things against whom we now rebel, and we are still liquidating the costs of that supreme folly." — President Harding.

FRENCH PRODUCE ART SUBSTITUTE
PARIS, Jan. 18 — Proverbial French thrift together with continued high war-time prices have combined to bring the market an inter- esting substitute for expensive materials to be used for decoration, such as bronze, copper, silver, wood, enamel and marble.
"French genius," wrote Paul Follot, the master of artistic decoration, several years ago, "will succeed one day in discovering mechanical methods which will permit artistic objects of luxury to be enjoyed by families of most modest revenue. We must break with the old methods which have been used for centuries. The engineer, the manufacturer and the chemist must all collaborate with the artist to realize the famous adage "Mens agitat molem."
