SPANISH WAR VETS ENTERTAIN WIVES (By A Comrade) Calumpit Camp No. 26 and Calumpit Auxiliary No. 39, Department of California, United Spanish War Veterans, enjoyed themselves immensely last Tuesday evening at one of their famous joint social gatherings. The attendance was good and the entertainment committee laid plates for sixty-four persons for the banquet that wound up the evening's amusement. The program that was arranged by the committee was a splendid one and was much enjoyed by those present. The entertainment committee was composed of Mr. and Mrs. Chas. E. Chatlain, Mr. and Mrs. Forrest Gay and Mrs. Chas. E. Waffle. The program they arranged was as follows: Called to order by Mrs. Estelle Dresser, the president of the Auxiliary; appointment of Chas. E.

After the program games were played, such as "Musical Chairs" and "Winkum," and then there was card playing, music and dancing, after which the assemblage adjourned to the banquet room and replenished the inner man. The camp had intended to have the Boy Scouts of Brea attend the social and were to have presented them with a troop flag, but that portion of the program had to be postponed to the next social meeting on account of the flag not yet having arrived.

Dear Sir: In the early part of May the city of San Jose unveiled a plaque constructed on what is claimed the site of the first capitol building in Calif. Heretofore it has been the opinion of many that Monterey was the first capitol. These claims are absolutely without foundation as a fair investigation will prove that Capitola was California's first capitol, from which it derives its name. Considerable newspaper space has been obtained by San Jose and Monterey claimants and we appeal to your paper and its known record for fairness In any important controversy to grant us space in your paper to allow Capitola to defend its right to this historical heritage. Recent research work among old ruins discovered in the heart of Capitola's business district has confirmed our claim, and we are now determined to challenge the false claims of San Jose and Monterey, in order that the people of California, as well as those of other states, may know the truth about the birth of this great commonwealth. The town of Capitola invites investigation of our old records that prove the location of the state's headquarters in this historic spot long before the discovery of gold and scores of years before the erection of a capitol building in Monterey or San Jose. Capitola's romantic history dates back to the first invasion of the white men on the Pacific Coast in 1602, eighteen years before, the Pilgrim Fathers landed at Plymouth Rock, when Viscaino, the bold adventurer, took possession of California in the name of the King of Spain. In 1769 or 167 years later, Father Junipero Serra founded the great Missions which remain today. Settled mainly by Spaniards and Indians at that time, Capitola was the scene of continual warfare between them. In excavating recently for the erection of buildings and residences in this town, many skulls and skeletons have been uncovered, lying crosswise of each other, together with old records and various firearms and instruments of war of a period long extinct. TEXAS EX-GOBLIN TO CLEANSE K. K. K. (By International News Service) HOUSTON, Tex., June 22.—George Kimbro, Jr., of Houston, at one time grand goblin of the K. K. K. in Texas, with 20 other states under his jurisdiction, has placed himself at the head of a movement "for the purpose of cleansing and purifying" the organization. To this end Kimbro has issued a proclamation calling on "faithful and esteemed klansmen," throut out the United States to join the "national associated klans," of which he is the provisional president. The purposes of the organization are set out in the proclamation. In principle they already have the support of Col. William J. Simmons, known as emperor of the klan and those who have joined with him in court and other proceedings to "democratize" the organization, it is said.

In 1769 or 167 years later, Father Junipero Serra founded the great Mission which remain today. Settled mainly by Spaniards and Indians at that time, Capitola was the scene of continual warfare between them. In excavating recently for the erection of buildings and residences in this town, many skulls and skeletons have been uncovered, lying crosswise of each other, together with old records and various firearms and instruments of war of a period long extinct. The old town of Capitola was acquired by peace fifty years ago by P. H. Hihn, one of the early pioneers and traders, at a reported cost of $750., less than many town lots now cost. For many years Capitola was allowed to sink into comparative oblivion with no effort to establish its claim to the honor of being the state's first capitol. At Hihn's death, however, the historical site was subdivided into lots and sold, and since that time has grown into a thriving community without sacrificing its romantic simplicity or historical landmarks. In response to requests we are handing some of the old remains to the Geological department of the University of California for scientific re-state of California. The town of Capitola would deeply appreciate it if you, in the spirit of fair play, would publish this truth about the first capital of the State of California. Thanking you, I beg to remain, Respectfully yours, HARRY BICKELL, Town Clerk. ANAHEIM BOOK STORE Book and Stationery 228 E.

SOME GOOD ADVICE AT BIG INSTITUTE (By County Farm Adviser) Orange-co, did itself proud during the recent So. Cal. Citrus Institute at Fullerton, if felicitation from growers is accepted at face value. In point of attendance, these sessions eclipsed all others. Some 1500 growers attended, doing homage to the golden fruit that brings millions to Orange-co. A few outstanding facts emphasized by the various speakers were: "The average Orange-co, grove produces 25 per cent greater income than the average So. Calif."—T. B. TALBERT, Chairman of Supervisors. "Consider the individual tree rather than the acre as the basis of the citrus industry."—H. S. DAMAREL, Sapt. Riley Fruit Co., Covina. "We can only increase the efficiency of the orchard by giving the individual tree the same analysis as the dairyman does in testing his individual cow."—R. W. HODGSON, Farm Advisor of Los Angeles-co. "Excessive cultivation reduces soil moisture; in fact, the destruction of weeds is the only real need for cultivation for moisture conserves."—Prof P. J. VEIHMEYER, irrigation specialist, University Farm, Davis. "Now is the time to provide a campus for a So. Calif. agricultural school before land values become prohibitive."—A. C. HARDISON, President California Farm Bureau Federation. "In 1930, Africa will ship six million boxes of oranges to European markets. No need for worry by California growers for some time, however."—R. E. NEBELUNG, Anaheim. "Ship only the best fruit east of the Mississippi river Frosted fruits have injured the reputation of California."—W. F. Crist, El Modena. "A few thousand dollars spent by California and the Federal Government will insure against the introduction of tropical pests that will endanger a billion-dollar investment of horticultural interests in the state." Mr. MASSENGER, chief quarantine inspector, San Pedro. "Biological control has been an important factor in keeping down the mealy bug pests in Orange-co."—A. A. BROCK, horticultural commission. GIVEN $100 UNIT Mrs. Frank Jauernick, 206 West Broadway, is humming a gay little tune this morning as she goes about her home duties—and why not? She was presented yesterday with a $100 unit in Security Oil Syndicate No. 2 at Santa Fe Springs. A large crowd was present as the stock was sold, and enjoyed the excellent luncheon given by the company. Mrs Jauernick was the only one to whom stock was presented. She already was a stockholder. The company has leased 20 acres and is planning to sink not less than eight wells in the very near future. A depth of 3000 feet has been drilled, but the company will go about 2000 feet deeper.

MEXICAN BANDIT CHIEFTAIN KILLED (SAN ANTONIO, June 22)—General Miguel Alemand, bandit chieftain, who has been operating in the state of Vera Cruz, was killed in a flight with Mexican cavalry, according to a telegram received by the Mexican consul general here. Aleman recently demanded 1900 pesos each from a group of sugar mill proprietors, threatening to burn fields of cane. The sugar mill owners asked ald of the federal government and General Gaudalpe Sanchez was sent with 500 troops. Alaman and his followers were surprised at the haelienda "La Rosa" and attempted to escape. Among the bodies found after the battle, was that of Aleman.
