LEGS OF PEKINESE CAUSE IN ACTION LONDON, May 14.—"Pekeclan Wee Wu" is bound to go down in dog history as a great and unique figure. "Pekeclan Wee Wu" holds the distinguished honor of being the first and only member of the Pekingese family and, in fact, of the whole canine tribe, to be the central figure in a libel suit. The whole case revolves around a dog show in Manchester, where Mrs. Edith Conway Evans exhibited "Pekeclan Wee Wu". She alleges that The dure Marples, editor of Our Dogs' publishing an article about the show, declared that "Pekeclan Wee Wu" was unsound on her legs. Now, it seems that legs are almost as important to a thoroughbred dog as to a Broadway chorus girl, and Mrs. Evans claimed that she had been seriously damaged by the slighting remarks about her dog's legs. She took the matter up with Marples, who suggested that she have the dog's legs examined by experts on legs of the Peke variety. The offer was accepted and 3 veterinary surgeons were in favor of the dog's underpinnings, while two were opposed to them. Then there followed a series of examinations by the learned professors of veterinary medicine, but they failed to agree. Finally Mrs. Evans and "Pekeclan" brought the matter up to the courts. "Pekeclan" occupied a most prominent place in the courtroom and listened attentively to the evidence, but failed to heed when the judge urged her to go thru the paces required. That is probably why Pekeclan lost the case.

The committee is negotiating with Stephen M. Hoye, Yale scientist and chemist, and the State Agricultural college of Cornell, under George W. Cavanaugh, by whom the food value of holly leaves has been discovered. Their report indicates that the prickles can be extricated, also that the holly leaf has been found to contain several times as much protein as wheat, two and a half times as much fat as wheat, oats and corn end eight times as much as barley. After being put through a vacuum process holly leaf has been tried out on animals which eagerly devoured it and grew fat. Thousands of tons of these holly leaves are going to waste on Vancouver Island, where the pretty and valuable bush grows in profusion. About 20 firms in America make ordinary razors. More than half a bushel of peanuts per capita were consumed in the United States last year.

BIBLE NOT LITERAL ASSERTS MINISTER COLUMBUS, O., May 14.—Asserting that the Bible is "a great and beautiful poem," Dr. Charles Reynolds Brown of Yale University in an address here, declared that a poetic license must be permitted to make the book luminous. We have passed the stage where our faith depends upon the literal truth of all the bible said Dr. Brown. If it affords us a clear conception of God, provides a guide to lead men to greater work it is a lamp to guide men's feet and light their path, the Bible is true: Stating that the spiritual truth of the Bible is apparent and that literally many of the passages would kill our faith in the truth of the Bible, Dr Brown continued.

REEL REMINDER The audience at a local movie theatre was laughing heartily the other night at the funny action depicted on the screen in one of the "Aesop's Film Fables." Very comical scenes showed a boy and a bear plunge over a cliff into a whirling torrent and then swim up a rushing waterfall. A woman near us seemed particularly amused at the water scenes. But, suddenly a look of agony passed over her face. "Goodness gracious", she exclaimed to her escort, "that reminds me I'm sure I left the kitchen faucet running!" Rolling mills were in use in England in the seventeenth century. Fullerton Mutual Orange Association ANNOUNCES quired the rights to the use of ANT BRAND on Valencia Orange county. This insures of the BETTER QUALITY of the remarkable returns which did the shippers of fine Navels long established and successful Redlands district. E THIS TAG on Every Orange ALVA, OKLA. BANKER KIWANIS SPEAKER Oklahoma and California were compared first hand for Kiwanians by Merritt C. Mason of Alva, Okla., who has been touring the state. Mason is a guest of Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Paris here. The other oil State differs from California in many respects said the speaker, but principally in the fact that wheat and corn, are the chief crops and it is different to diversity of production; that land values are much lower—a maximum of $200 or less per acre against $2,000 to $4,000 in Orange County; and that there is a need of fertilizer there. In his opinion growers make more money with wheat at $1.25 per bushel than at $2.50 per bushel. Oklahoma has as good oil as Pennsylvania, as good cotton as Georgia and as good cattle as Wisconsin. Meson remarked on the good fellowship which he had noticed in California clubs, such as Kiwanis. The Prairie Dogs, headed by Paul Taggert, won the Kalling Kontest, and the Spark Plugs, led by Henry Adams, will have to pay for the next luncheon. Arthur A. Cohen, chairman of the sports and athletic committee, brot a challenge from the Rotary club to a baseball contest, three games, the winner of two to be the victor and the loser to pay for a joint luncheon of the two clubs. The challenge was accepted and the first game will be played Thursday after-noon beginning at 5 o'clock on the Union High School grounds.

ANAHEIM, CAL EIM, CALIFORNIA Wednesday, May 16, 1923 JUDSON FROWNS ON PROMISCUOUS LEASE Major A. F. Judson, geologist and petroleum expert, was a visitor in Cypress yesterday looking over the situation there which has brought the town well to the front in oil circles. Maj. Judson, who was a government geologist in U. S., Alaska Mexico and Argentina and other places for years, was pleased with the outlook, but advises against the practice of ranchers leasing promiscuously to brokers who re-lease to the companies, but rather to hold until the benefit may be their own. The Major was offered the appointment of consul to Tampico, Mexico from President Harding, but declined choosing to remain in the United States.
