Live Important Store New in this Shopping Section READ EVERY WORD—THEY MEAN MUCH Plain Dealer Anaheim, California, Wednesday, July 9, 1924 Shopping issued Weekly Offering Super Values by Anaheim SOMETHING NEW; ELECTRIC IRONER The "come out of the kitchen" idea, which has been getting the ear of the housewife the last year or two as never before, is furthered decidedly by a new device—or an "old" one so changed as to be practically new—an electric ironer handled by one of the East Center-st stores. The patents were taken over by a large concern, which improved the contrivance and put its manufacture on a much larger scale. With its use the housewife can do the work in a fraction of the time and consequently much lower cost. The electricity use is only a drop in the bucket and furnished from any base plug. Here is an ironer only 26 inches long, portable and weighing only 80 pounds. The ironing is actually done five times faster than the ordinary hand ironer. The work on collars, cuffs, ruffles, etc., is particularly efficient. The ironing shoe is of polished nickel and the frame of aluminum. The ironer is remarkably easy to operate and can be safely used on linens, laces and other delicate fabrics. The pressure may be changed from 100 to 500 pounds. SEEK $6000 LOAN FOR BULB FARM An opportunity to establish a new industry on a commercial scale near Anaheim hangy on a loan of $6,000! Cyril R. Hannah, two miles south on the State highway, is seeking that sum, on security of $15,000, with which to develop a bulb industry that already in flowers alone nets him $100,00 per week. Hannah's business, known as Highway Bulb Gardens, has been going only a year or two, but prospects are so promising that he has strongly enlisted the interest of Secretary Geo. W. Reid of the C. of C. in its development. Hannah has 50 different species of bulbs in the ground already, valued in the retail market at $15,000, according to Reid. He is planting more as fast as his limited funds will permit. His flowers he is selling in the Los Angeles market, where he is getting top prices. Hannah makes a trip each day to the metropolis. On Jan. 1, 1926, the $20,000-600 worth of bulbs imported from abroad will cease to enter the United States because of soil and MEN'S FALL STYLES ARE ALREADY HERE Whipeords and gaberdines, descendants of khaki, are almost completely out of vogue and will be unpurchasable soon, according to a well-informed local merchant. Light colors, showing the influence of the sport trend, will predominate this fall, in English cuts and loose fitting. This man already has made a large proportion of his purchases and spoke with the utmost frankness, apparently regardless of the fact that his own stocks haven't been purged completely of the old models. Gray flannel instead of white trousers already have come in and will remain thru the fall. In fact, purchasers need not fear that the clothes they buy now, regardless practically of what it is, will be out of date when the new goods crowd out the old entirely. This applies to men's haberdashery as well as suits. Caps are and will be in light colors, to match suits and trousers. Bow ties in broad styles are the thing now and will remain so indefinitely. Tied ties have definitely come back. There isn't much change in collars, except that the effort to put over colored detachable collars proved a dismal failure. These now are practically out of fashion. STABLE STYLES ONE SHOE SHOW AIM "The right shoe for the right occasion." This is the slogan which shoe manufacturers and distributors are trying to make national. The slogan will find expression shortly at the annual Boston Shoe and Leather Exposition, which will open July 14. Leading Los Angeles distributors are expected to attend. Many new styles will be "on trial." The event is not an exposition, but a style revue. A leading shoe company is involved in the development of bulbs in the ground already, valued in the retail market at $15,000, according to Reid. He is planting more as fast as his limited funds will permit. His flowers he is selling in the Los Angeles market, where he is getting top prices. Hannah makes a trip each day to the metropolis. On Jan. 1, 1926, the $20,000,000 worth of bulbs imported from abroad will cease to enter the United States because of soil and shrubs diseases which are being brought in from foreign parts. Consequently American producers are afforded an unexpected opportunity in the new field. California can produce bulbs much more cheaply than the East, partly because they mature in two years naturally instead of the three years required by artificial raising along the Atlantic seaboard. Hannah has been offered encouragement by San Diego co-interests, but hopes to remain on the 14-acre Hannah ranch, leasing or purchasing adjoining property, which he can obtain on exceptionally favorable terms. FULLERTON J. C. HAS FINE RECORD Fullerton J. C. has handed out a letter written by B. M. Woods, assistant dean of Univ. of Calif., and official head of the junior college relations to the university, which shows in a gratifying way the standing of the Fullerton institution at Berkley. Since the junior college entered into a definite affiliation agreement in 1921, the university has the authority to pass on all courses offered for university credit and on all teachers who instruct in these courses. Furthermore, a number of representatives from the University faculty visit the junior college each year to inspect the work that is being done and to consult with instructors. The last year, teachers in seven subjects were visited. It is concerning these that Dr. Woods has written as follows: "The visitors to Fullerton commented especially upon the fine equipment and library. As the result of the visits, the committee voted to accredit courses visited this year in botany, chemistry, mathematics, surveying, Spanish. French, in group 1. The courses in English 1A-1B and English 2A-2B were also accredited, and elective credit was recommended for English 130 since it has no lower division equivalent at the university. The course in economics 1A-1B was also accorded in group 1." You may see from the above comments that the university view... SHOE SHOW AIM "The right shoe for the right occasion." This is the slogan which shoe manufacturers and distributors are trying to make national. The slogan will find expression shortly at the annual Boston Shoe and Leather Exposition, which will open July 14. Leading Los Angeles distributors are expected to attend. Many new styles will be "on trial." The event is not an exposition, but a style revue. A leading shoe journal, commenting on the show, says that the committee "has endeavored to express the idea of both authentic style forecast and style stabilization, and the foot coverings of the 75 or more attractive fem'nine model-its will combine both of these desirable elements." "Style stabilization." That means that the purchaser of shoes—even the fair sex—needn't be afraid of styles changing so often or completely that a shoe will be out of fashion before its full use is enjoyed. The show will be both a forecast and a review. WORKMAN HURT William Harbison was injured this morning in an accident at the new I. O. O. F. hall, where he was employed by U. S. Amack, contractor. His injuries consisted of a crushed foot, but after he received surgical attention and it was bound up he was able to walk, it is said. TOWN DESTROYED OAKLAND, July 9.—Fire of undetermined origin early today destroyed the town of Oakley, near here, causing a loss in excess of $300,000. The fire started in the East Contra Costa Mercantile Co. store. DEATH REMOVES SECRETARY'S WIFE Mrs. Mary Proctor Ralph, wife of A. S. Ralph, secretary and manager of the Orange-co Auto club, died yesterday after an illness of many months, of acute dilation of the heart. Funeral services will be held tomorrow afternoon in mented especially upon the fine equipment and library. As the result of the visits, the committee voted to accredit courses visited this year in botany, chemistry, mathematics, surveying, Spanish, French, in group 1. The courses in English 1A-1B and English 2A-2B were also accredited, and elec'tive credit was recommended for English 130 since it has no lower division equivalent at the university. The course in econom's 1A-1B was also accorded in group 1. "You may see from the above comments that the university visitors were very much pleased with the work being done at Fullerton." The letter, of course, applies only to those subjects visited this year, but it may be said that every course offered for lower division credit is accepted both at Berkeley and all other four-year colleges of the state for its face value, and if a student has completed the requirements for the junior certificate when he graduates from the junior college he is accorded full junior standing. Of the 131 students who graduated from the junior college prior to the class of 1924; 74% continued their education, and 45% went to either the Univ. of Calif. or Stanford Univ. Not one of these students failed. In fact, no student who has gone from the Fullerton Junior college to a four-year institution has failed. SHELL STATIONS CLOSE AT 8 P.M. The Shell Oil Co., today announced that they would close their service stations at 8 o'clock, the same as other stations, in order to conserve on electricity. Orange, the family home. Mrs. Ralph had been ill for almost two years. She had suffered a nervous breakdown and had been under medical care since she is survived by her husband, her mother, Mrs. A. E. Proctor, three sisters and four brothers. A son died at the age of three years immediately prior to the time Mr. and Mrs. Ralph moved to California 15 years ago from Oshkosh, Wis. The Ralphs would have celebrated their silver wedding anniversary next December 27.
