FOR "PEG O' MY HEART"
That rollicking modern classic,
"Peg O' My Heart," at its opening performance in the United last night drew the biggest and most responsive audience the writer has ever seen at the theater.
"Storm Swept," with Wallace and Noah Beery, the leading picture in the other part of the play, helped doubtless to swell the roundings and of her aunt, Mrs. Chester and the others to Peg.
We don't exactly fancy quite so rapid a rapid fire as Miss Elllett put into Peg, but that perhaps is a matter of personal opinion. Peg carries practically the whole play, and the principal had a strenuous hour or two, with hardly a breathing spell.

FOR "PEG O' MY HEART"
That rollicking modern classic,
"Peg O' My Heart," at its opening performance in the United last night drew the biggest and most responsive audience the writer has ever seen at the theater,
"Storm Swept," with Wallace and Noah Beety, the leading picture in the other part of the play, helped doubless to swell the house.
The play was in fact a new version of the familiar "Peg," and one which of course differed markedly from the screen version, which permits larger and more elaborate settings than the ordinary stage could.
Edythe Elfloff played Peg, the effervescent, warme-hearted Irish lass, brague, deg, bundles and all. Peg, you remember, is Margaret OConnell, whose aristocratic mother married an Irishman of no pedigree, a jack of all trades who could do anything but make money. The child is returned from America to be brought up by her aristocraticunt—not "ant," that little crawling creature, you know—in consideration of 1,000 pounds per year. Solely because of the money, the nunt accepts the girl.
The play consists merely of the reactions of Peg to her new surprise quarters may be secured, and it was finally decided that the office should be located temporarily at the Ford garage where a splendid space was offered by Mr. Harmon for the exclusive use of the Secretary. The Placentia theatre, through the courtesy of the owner, Mr. Cowan, volunteered the use of the theatre for the meetings of the Chamber when they meet in a body. They decided to meet on Tuesday evening of next week.
C. E. Lee, of Minneapolis was present as a candidate for the office of secretary of the Placentia Chamber of Commerce, and made a brief talk to the whole body. He had been sent out by the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce with their endorsement, they having investigated his qualifications.
After the meeting of the Chamber, the board of directors met in the same room and after discussing the recommendations and apparent good qualifications of Mr. Lecempoyed him to act as secre-

PLACENTIA, Jan. 7—Sol. At the first meeting of the newly organized Chainier of Commerce for Placentia, there was a good attendance and much enthusiasm was shown by everyone.

After some discussion a number of men were nominated to serve on the Board of Directors of the Chamber and the following nine men were chosen as that Board: A. S. Bradford, Henry Tuffree, Charley Mitchell, C. R. Farrar, O. D. Harman, E. C. Basten, Arnold Kraemer, Dr. G. A. Mansardt and Lisle R. Morehous.
Several places were offered as an office for the Secretary of the chamber to be used until permanent quarters may be secured, and it was finally decided that the office should be located temporarily at the Ford garage where a splendid space was offered by Mr. Harmon for the exclusive use of the Secretary.

CLOTHES SHOW RUSSIAN AND FRENCH INFLUENCE
CLOTHES SHOW RUSSIAN AND FRENCH INFLUENCE
French and Russian influences are noticed in the costumes illustrated today. The frock on the left is decidedly Russian in its character. It is designed especially for the informal dansant. Black velvet embroidered with steel beads is the alluring combination, and a wide band of fur trimming the tunic adds to the richness and charm of the frock.
A little taffetr dance frock strikes a new note in trimming in the center. The tight fitting bodice is allowed a little fullness near the waist in front, and is topped with a novel lattice work insertion. The very full skirt also has a wide insertion of the lattice work.
And what could be more than the walking suit shown right? The tube-like frock taped over to the right and med with huge black buttons, coat is also straight line loose. A striped novelty good used, the stripes running horizontally.

NEW YORK, Jan. 7 — The deal of the dollar, between the New York Giants and the Cincinnati Reds, for a pre-season clutch in the national League pennant, will be continued by McGraw, by the purchase of two more minor league pitchers of more than ordinary repute.
They will come from the American association and the Pacific Coast league respectively, but their identity is withheld for no other reason than to prevent otn-clubs from entering the competition.
This is McGraw's reply to Pat Ryan's dollar-waving campaign in the general direction of all minor league club owners, a campaign that has seen the Reds line Tom Sheehand, of St. Paul, to be the best pitcher in American Association last year, and May the Vernon lefthander whom the Yankees angled.
Only a few days ago, McGraw have $59,000 and several ballayers for Wayland Dean, Louisa-de pitcher. He not only desired Wayland very much but really had his hand forced by the fact that the Reds were hot after him.
With the best pitching staff in the National League—Luque, Key, Donahue and Benton—the Reds have added May, Sheehan and Carl Mays, former Yankee, and McGraw saw a vision of the 1924 pennant fluttering in Cincinnati unless he claimed them as his own.
The Pittsburg Pirates, the third of three possible contenders, are doing nothing. They seemed to have stepped aside in favor of the Giants and Reds as contenders for the 1924 pennant.

Osamard, but because of his inability to get his business closed in the east quickly and satisfactorily, he was too late to get the position, so Placentia may regitate herself on getting so kindly a man for the job beheme them, that of boosting Placentia.
At another meeting of the ward of directors held in the Harrison garage Wednesday evening it was decided to rent the sixth half of the front of the currier office for temporary quarers. This will be fitted with typewriter, etc., and the secretary will do all the business on that office.
The constitution and bylaws have been adopted, and the artisans of incorporation are nearly ready to be forwarded to Sacramento.
The start was made on the stopping out of a program for the winning of the work of advertising and boosting Placentia, and other matters were also taken up and discussed.
The officers of the new organization elected at the first meeting the board are A. S. Bradford, president; O. D. Harnon, vice-president; C. E. Lee, secretary; Gary Tuffree, treasurer. Committees will be appointed in the last few days and the actual result will begin to be felt.

Bill Haecher, Sulzingen, center, and Helen Wills
The meteoric rise to fame and the championship ranks of Miss Helen Wills, young Pacific coast star, was the outstanding feature of the past year in the realm of tennis. Big Bill Tilton was expected to lead the pack in the men's ranks—and he did. He won the national title and then cinched the Davis cup matches by his brilliant work in the singles. But Miss Wills started the net followers when she conquered Mrs. Molla Blurstedt, several times tennis queen in the world in national meet. Miss Suzanne Lenglen, French star, once more proved herself queen of the continent, if not of the world, by winning the Britiab tourney at Wimbledor.
SARGUM SPROUTINGS
By Sargum Sprout
Jakle May, one of the best pitchers of the day, was sold to Cincinnati Reds. Jakle has been on the market for months but the big towns refused his tag price. The Reds are a contender for the National honors and are in need of one or two good moundsmen. Jakle is just the lad for the Reds. He has worked too long on the Coast under the circumstances and the change of scenery will do him a world of good. He surely should be a winner in the big show. He has plenty of stuff and a good head.
Besides a good chunk of coir, Vernon receives two promising young players in Kinmick and Keck—sounds like a vanderville team. Both were with the Reds last season and gave a fair account of their abilities. Kimick is an infielder and Keck a pitcher.
The Calver race horse meet is about to go on the rocks. It started off Christmas Day with a bang, but the balloon of success was punctured with the opening program and it has been slowly collapsing and if help does not come soon in the way of attendance the big project will be a thing of the past. Old horsemen say that bettoss racing will never be a success and it begins to appear that they are right in their conclusions.

LOCAL ICE CREAM FACTORY GROWING
Manager Jackson of the Crescent Creamery Co. gives some enlightening information about the ice cream industry. Altho not a historian, Mr. Jackson is conversant on the history of ice cream served daily in Anaheim and vicinity from the Crescent Creamery plant in Anaheim.
"Away back about five centuries ago, an old Italian dairyman accidentally stumbled upon the idea of freezing liquids by applying cold. He was carrying a bucket of warm goat's milk somewhere in the Alps and set it down a second to rest. He had a large wooden spoon and stirred the milk just to see what would happen. The milk at the sides of the bucket froze solid. He ate the frozen milk and liked it immediately. Thus ice cream got its first introduction to man."
"Later on a French chef experimented with several frozen desserts and finally served a highly delectable dish of the frozen variety and as a result of his handiwork he was pensioned for life as a reward. People had a high regard for frozen cream at that time."
"Our friend, Marco Pollo, was accused of pipering the idea of ice cream making from his countrymen and passing it on to the Japanese. Now, some people give them all the credit. They just got the idea from others. Then, later on, during the early periods of American history, Alexander Hamilton invited George Washington to a banquet and served ice cream for dessert. Mr. Washington was tremendously pleased, they tell me."
In 1786, the first advertisement about ice cream was published in the New York Post Boy. From that time ice cream has played by Lila Lee.

In 1786, the first advertisement about ice cream was published in the New York Post Boy. From that time ice cream has grown in popularity by leaps and bounds.
"The Crescent Creamery Company plant in Anaheim has grown rapidly the last year," says Mr. Jackson. "Our territory is growing larger and more and more people are coming to realize that the Crescent symbol means absolute uniform high quality. We are now serving many of the largest dealers in this territory."
Mr. Jackson added: "We are trying to serve the very best ice cream it is possible to manufacture and the steady increase in our business makes us believe that it pays to make the best."

The reactions of the average American family under most unusual circumstances possible in modern life, are portrayed in Thomas Meighan's new Paramount star picture, "Woman-Proof," which will be on view at the California Theatre starting tomorrow. The story is by George Ade, noted humorist. It is the Paramount picture under the new policy of "bigger and better" productions. It was directed by Alfred E. Green.
The story concerns the will of a father who stipulated in his will that all his sons and daughters must marry before they inherit his estate valued at several million dollars. One brother and the two sisters have no difficulty in finding mates under these circumstances, but one member of the family alone is uninterested in matrimony. This is Tom Rockwood, played by Thomas Meighan, a civil engineer who is working on a big electrical project.
All the efforts of his brother and sisters and their prospective mates to bring Tom into the nupial fold only make matters worse, and when all are about to give up hope of Tom's marrying, he accidentally falls in love with Louise Halliday, a college girl, played by Lila Lee.
In the meantime, Milo Bleech, executor of the Rockwood estate and guardian of Louise, plans to upset Tom's romance. It all the Rockwoods marry he will no longer be executor of the estate and will lose an income of $20,000 a year. By making young Rockwood's proposal of marriage appear like a crude business deal he effects a breach between the two lovers.
In seeking to escape the surroundings both accidentally meet on shipboard just as the liner is leaving the wharf. They are reunited and married at sea. At the same time they send a radiogram to the Rockwoods on shore to marry immediately. Thus all are married a few hours before the day set in the will for the forfeiture of the Rockwood millions.
