1913 BUICK HERE STILL GOING STRONG A Buick owner driving an early model went to the Anaheim Auto Company's garage, the Buick authorized service station, to get some one to find the motor number. After one of the service men had scraped off grease and dirt that had taken 10 years to collect, he found No. 113,800 somewhat different from 1,007,575, which a recent car from the factory bore. Buick is well above the million mark and going strong. The owner of the car, a 1913 model, has been driving it ever since and, considering its age, it is in good condition mechanically. Except for a 1906 model of the Howard Motor Company is one of the oldest Buick automobiles ever seen here. The owner of this old-timer can get any parts he may want from the local station, the same as if it were a 1923 machine. Art Stewart, foreman, announces that he has installed a new riveting machine which saves a lot of time on repairs. The demand for valve grinding has jumped since the new device for the purpose was installed. First metal bridge was put across the Severn, in England, in 1779. Romans were last of ancients to learn the art of cookery. BABY CHICKS NEED CARE FOR SUCCESS Give the chick a fair start during the first few weeks. Careful watching over the baby chicks is just an important as careful feeding. Segregate the weak from the strong after the first few days. As soon as little cookerels can be distinguished, segregate them from pullets and crowd them with feed for future broilers. Use feed with a high protein and fat content. Keep the drinking fountains clean. This is the easiest source of infection. Cleanliness of the house and runs is absolutely necessary. It is always easier to prevent sickness by proper care and timely thought than by trying to doctor after it is too late. COME ACROSS "That guy," said the proprietor of the soft drink emporium, confidently indicating a departing figure with his thumb, "is a prohibition enforcement guy looking for bootleg whisky." "So'm I," replied the new customer draping himself along the edge of the counter. "Wot? You a prohibition agent?" demanded the other in alarm. "No—oh, no, no, no!" hastily. "But I'm on the same errand."—Exchange. —Starbuck's Red. See Classified Ad. No Bother—No Worry—No Trouble For it Never Runs Dry MACDRY For it Never Runs Dry MAC-DRY Free Service 250 Used in County B.

This is the record of W. C. Carle in a 1920 Dodge touring, purchased about a year ago of Charley Mann. The average gas mileage figures out to a little over, 22-1-2 miles. Carle has driven the car 20,000 miles since he bought it. Mann's sales keep up at a lively rate. This week he sold four cars in four days, including screen commercials to C. L. Chigaras and the Placentia office of the Standard Oil Company, a stock turing to C. T. O'Neill of Yorba Linda and a used Dodge roadster to the Vitrified Products company. Last week the Union Oil Company bought one. Anaheimer Invents Radio Improvements Improving the Crystal receiving set with secret methods of his own, W. E. Altnow of the Independent Battery Station, who has erected an aerial in the rear of his shop at Los Angeles and Cypress streets, reports that he can now hear distinctly messages from as far as Salt Lake City and El Paso, Texas. Furthermore, the re-made Crystal will carry 10 phone messages and re-produce them as clearly as one. No batteries or bulbs are necessary and the upkeep is absolutely nil, says Altnow. Music from Los Angeles comes in five times as loudly and clearly as on an ordinary Crystal set. Orders for 15 of the improved sets have been received. LOCAL TIRE SALES AN BEST IN MONTHS Car owners are buying tires to an extent which hasn't prevailed since last summer, according to Fred James, distributor of the Alax, Horse Shoe and Federal tires. Whether they are moved by desire to forestall a further price raise or merely to prepare for summer touring James don't now. James also notices an unchanged tendency to purchase cord tires instead of fabrics, wherever the buyer can afford to do so. Fabrics up to and including the four-inch are, however, still in considerable demand. TOOTH DECAY GERM HAS BEEN FOUND WASHINGTON, Mar. 21.—Bacteria capable of causing tooth decay have been discovered and isolated here at the U.S. Army Medical school by Dr. P.E. Rodriguez, captain Dental Corps U.S. Army. This accomplishment is declared to be the greatest step toward getting at the real bacterium of dental caries that has been taken in the last three decades since the American dentist, Miller, established the assumption of the German bacteriologist, Kock, that tooth decay is caused in some way by bacteria.

DODGE BROTHERS MOTOR CAR Few days are too cold for comfortable driving in this sturdy car. Snug-fitting curtains, which open and close with the doors, afford complete protection from wind and snow. The carburetor and starter are famous for their prompt and dependable response on cold mornings. Cord tires, with safety treads, act as a safeguard against skidding, and greatly reduce the possibility of having to change tires in disagreeable weather. 400 SCOUTS WILL CAMP NEXT WEEK According to plans announced from Orange-oc headquarters, Boy Scout, a large number of troops are planning camping trips during the Easter vacation period. A council camp will be opened next to Orange-co Park for boys who are denied the privilege of going on individual troop camps. Mr. Victor E. Teaney, assistant to the Scout Executive, will establish early Monday, his headquarters near the county park. A trail will be made from the entrance of the park with Boy Scout markers so that they may easily find the way. It is expected that fully 400 boys will take advantage of the vacation week to make trips. Scouts will take their own equipment including cooking and bedding and will furnish their own food. Each scout will prepare his own meal while in camp under the direction of the camp director. The carburetor and starter are famous for their prompt and dependable response on cold mornings.

London's normal number of suicides has been more than doubled over a succession of months. One day's suicides include, besides the ordinary shootings, hangings, poisoning and drowning: A 15 year old kitchen maid, who drowned herself because she accidently burned her bedelothes. A married woman who had been frightened by a dog. Many suicides are attributed to unemployment, but an alarming number of those reported daily are of people in comfortable circumstances. A coroner blamed for them "the fact that the responsibilities of life are taken so lightly that people become upset at the least thing."

SPECIAL PROGRAMS COMING NEXT WEEK An array of cinema and stage attractions seldom equalled locally is scheduled for the California theater starting tomorrow. Colleen Moore and Antonio Moreno will be seen in the super-Goldwyn production "Look Your Best", together with a superb added program including the vaudeville act of Gates and Grant, two colored youths who are whirlwinds. Starting Monday for a big three-day run, the famous Cecil DeMille special "Adams Rib" will be presented and this program will also include La Rose and Lane in a very artistic offering on the stage. In Cecil B. De Mille's new Paramount production, "Adam's Rib," the Chicago Board of Trade with its wheat and corn pits, is reproduced with absolute fidelity to make real the scenes where Milton Sills, one of the five featured players in the picture, wins and loses a fortune in grain trading. Then there is the Natural History Museum where Elliot Dexter and Pauline Garon start a pleasing love romance. Great, towering, thir-foot dinosaur skeletons put this scene in a class by itself as a novelty. Closely related to this pre-historic display is the expected and far-famed De Mille "cut-back" or "vision" scene in which the life of man of the time of the stone age is depicted. A huge redwood forest, the largest indoor set ever built for a motion picture, forms the background for the dramatic action. Scenic cave-day costumes of furs and thongs, are Elliot Dexter, Milton Sills, Anna Q. Nilsson, Pauline Garon and Julia Paye, the featured players. Guard well the companionships of your children. Their destiny may be decided by the company they keep. EIGHTH WRECK FATILITY (By International News Service) COLUMBUS, O., Mar. 31—Death today of W. L.
