SATURDAY, AUGUST 16, 1924 DURADERO PAINT SYSTEM AT RILEY'S Harry D. Riley, Studebaker dealer, after careful investigation has adopted the Duradero system of painting for all of his reconditioned Studebakers and late models of other standard makes. This system of refinishing automobiles is just another step forward and can be compared with the electric starter, cord tires, one man top and many other improvements made in the last few years. Duradero automobile paint has been thoroughly tested in actual paint shop practice over a period of two and one half years during which time hundreds of automobiles have been finished with entirely satisfactory results. No checking, cracking or chipping off. Duradero produces a smooth satin finish which gains in luster each time it is cleaned. It is easily and quickly repaired when damaged by accident. It is easily cleaned. It wears equally as well or hoods, radiators, lamps and fenders. This finish after two and one-half years of hard service does not show any deterioration. The Duradero system is endorsed and recommended by many of the largest dealers in Los Angeles, among them being Paul G. Hoffman, J W. Leavitt and Walter M. Brown. Among a long list of private owners who command it are Douglas MacLean and E. D. Ayers of the Auto Club of So Calif. BATTERIES ALIKE, BUT DIFFERENT TOO Compare any two makes of batteries—except Vesta—and you will find them very similar. Compare any other make of battery with Vesta and a remarkable difference will be quickly observed. This great difference, which is truly a Vesta triumph, is the isolator, which firmly and evently LACK OF CAPITAL LOCAL PROBLEM "If we could only finance the Eucna-Lemo Soap Co. and Hannah, we'd be all right for a while." Secretary George W. Reid of the C. of C today gave these two (By a Confirmed Camper). About every once in a while one of those big, full faced, breezy sort of persons, who are always referred to as "the picture of health," drops into the office, picks out the best chair with the softest cushion and after a few preliminary remarks broaches forth with his discourse on God's Great Outdoors (The Capitals are BATTERIES ALIKE, BUT DIFFERENT TOO Compare any two makes of batteries—except Vesta—and you will find them very similar. Compare any other make of battery with Vesta and a remarkable difference will be quickly observed. This great difference, which is truly a Vesta triumph, is the isolator, which firmly and eventually locks the plates apart, declare West Bros, local distributors. Ordinary battery construction permits plates to twist and turn as illustrated below. Contrast this with the rigid Vesta construction shown above. This is the standard by which the discriminating motorist buys a battery—judged by whether or not the plates are firmly locked apart. The isolators—by locking the plates apart at the four corners—prevent short circuits through buckling, and materially increase the life of the battery. Free circulation of the acid is maintained so that the tendency to overheat is reduced. It is a common occurrence for Vesta battery owners to express surprise at the small amount of water used. The saving in water is inconsequential. The real saving is in the preservation of the plates from oxidization. Another patented feature is the treatment of the wooden mats. This treatment makes the word acid resisting so that short circuits in the form of filaments of lead (called treeing) are prevented. These reasons plainly show why Vesta mats should—and do—last longer in Vesta batteries than separators last in other makes of batteries in the same service. Vesta plates are hard, but, by a new process of manufacture, they are very porous, capable of filtering water. PREDICTS RADICAL TICKET WILL WIN PORTLAND, Ore., Aug. 16.—Predicting victory for the LaFollette-Wheeler ticket in the coming presidential election, U. S. Senator Shipstead of Minnesota has arrived here to formally open the Oregon campaign with an address tonight at the public auditorium. "LaFollette has fought the battle of the common people for 35 years and has come to symbolize their rights against special privilege." Shipstead stated. "Men in all walks of life except perhaps the banking interests, are talking of LaFollette." Senator Shipstead said he intends to campaign actively for the success of the independent ticket. LACK OF CAPITAL LOCAL PROBLEM "It we could only finance the Eucla-Lemo Soap Co. and Hannah, we'd be all tight for a while." Secretary George W. Reid of the C. of C today gave these two local industries as examples of several to which Anaheim well might turn its attention instead of locking exclusively outside for its industrial development. Ninety per cent of the outside industries which seek to locate here have demanded that Anaheim furnish the larger part of the capital, says Reid—unlike, of course, the McBride Glass Co. Soap is in common use, and a soap factory here can purchase its base in Los Angeles in large quantities at wholesale rates, if it has the capital, says Reid. Lack of capital with which to get a fair start has been responsible largely for the struggle which local industries, small but promising, have experienced, Reid asserted. Production of bulbs and seeds is another practicable industry for the district, both because of the available market and because the soil and climate are suitable, in Reid's opinion. 5000 GATHER FOR HOPI SNAKE DANCE FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., Aug. 16.—Five thousand persons were gathered here today from all parts of the country preparing to make a final drive into the painted desert to witness the Hopi Indians snake dance Monday. Hotevilla, 100 miles from here, will be the scene of the strange spectacle. After nine days of shouting of chants and special ceremonials the snake dance will be staged as a final effort to bring rain to the Indians' desert lands. The greatest crowd which has ever witnessed the dance will gather, it was said, at the foot of the lofty mesa, where the ceremonial will take place, on Sunday night, waiting the start of the dance the next morning. There is not a hotel or restaurant within more than 90 miles of Hotevilla and all the visitors here today will be forced to "pack" food and water. How doth the busy buzzing fly improve each shining minute; He buzzes round the sugar bowl And then he buzzes in it. (By a Confirmed Camper). About every once in a while one of those big, full faced, breezy sort of persons who are always referred to as "the picture of health," drops into the office, picks out the best chair with the softest cushion and after a few preliminary remarks broaches forth with his discourse on God's Great Outdoors (The Capitals are his). This is the same fellow who dotes on entering a one-man car and throwing open the window, and who scornfully asks anyone bold enough to complain why he doesn't toughen himself by a cold bath when he gets up. You know who I mean, this fellow I'm talking about, better known as the desk-chair camper. The fellow who, if you would believe his story, plunges into the much-heralded "great outdoors" with a few beans and a slab of bacon in one hand and a blanket in the other. He dilates at great lengths on the joys of sleeping out under the blue sky—to hear him tell it, all that it is necessary to do is to spread a blanket before a roaring fire, put out the cat, clock off another day and sleep like the proverbial log until morning. I am here to remark (if the reader will pardon my sudden lapse from newspaper dignity into the use of the first personal pronoun)—I am here to remark that fellow is a liar. There is no joy whatever in sleeping on the ground and on several occasions that I have tried to get next to nature by that method. Nature had gotten next to me. When I awoke the next morning, I was covered with enough botanical specimens to make a naturalist crazy with joy. They made me crazy too. In fact, I tried out all the alleged measures of camping years ago and found them wanting. Camping to me meant a lot of hard work involved lots of hiking and packing tents and all such truck that was called camping equipment but which had no right to the name. I did not care for any of those things and I didn't fall to notice that after a few days of this so-called enjoyment even the desk-chair camper was lacking in enthusiasm. He didn't care any more about such outdoor life than I did, but he wouldn't admit it. It was apparent when he arose painfully from his "downy couch of fir bought" and tried to get breakfast over a smoky fire that wouldn't burn properly. There was no use talking. I was frankly, to use an inelegent expression, off of camping for life and I took no pains to conceal my thoughts.

There is not a hotel or restaurant within more than 90 miles of Hotevilla and all the visitors here today will be forced to "pack" food and water. How doth the busy buzzing fly improve each shining minute; He buzzes 'round the sugar bowl And then he buzzes in it. There was no use talking. I was frankly, to use an inelegent expression, off of camping for life and I took no pains to conceal my thoughts. Whenever any of my friends attempted to paint a roay picture of beautiful camp life, I could recall that cold, grey morning when Mr. Hardy Camper and I pulled out from the blankets with a creak in every joint. They tried to lure me by talking vividly of the completeness of their camping equipment. I refused to believe that any equipment was complete in anything except failure. No thanks, on camping trips almost any first-class hotel along the way would suffice for sleeping quarters, and I could manage to struggle along with restaurant cooking. While he goes to show how thoroughly a man may become deluged by prejudice. However, in an unsuspecting moment one day, I succeeded to the call of the wild or whatever it is that makes a man want to go on a camping trip. I took a long overland journey in a car completely equipped with Camp Goods from the Western Auto Supply Company. I am lost forever. The camping habit has me in its clutches and nothing will ever cure me. It seems that roadside camping is changed radically since the motor car has opened up new roads. Most gratifying of all, the camp outfits-to-go with the motor-car are such as to harmonize with the most expensive models. Gasoline Stoves, grates and broilers to build fires in the open, more tractable than a gas range, fold to a small compass and are stored away beneath the seat or somewhere else out of sight. Beds, just like "mother used to make" mysteriously disappear and are easily stored away on the running board. Tents that are really waterproof, complete with a floor at all, take the place of the cumbersome strip of canvas. Best of all, they have mirrors and privacy and everything. THE PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIF. SPEED OF RADIO IS “NOTHING FLAT” CLEVELAND, Aug. 16.—The fact that radio waves can be made to go "there and back in nothing flat" was demonstrated at WTAM, radio station of the Willard Storage Battery Co., broadcasting from the Cleveland Plain Dealer studio, says A. Bevillard. A late dance concert of request numbers was being put on the air when a fan called the studio by long distance telephone from St. Thomas, Ontario, placed his loud speaker to the telephone and sent back over the wire the same music that was being sent out by wireless 15 feet away. The speed of the round trip of the signals was so great that the music came back from Canada at the same instant that it was going into the microphone in the next room. To complete the circuit of sound, telephone wires carried the signals from the studio to the transmitting set, seven miles away. From there the ether carried them to St. Thomas, about 100 miles away, straight across Lake Erie. From St. Thomas they were put on the wire again, going about 400 miles around the lake to get back to the studio. And the return was instantaneous with the start. time on request.

INCREASE PRICE OF BREAD TO 12 Grease has risen four cents pound in the last six weeks. Flour is $2.40 a barrel high than a month and a half ago. These are the reasons bread has been advanced to 12 cents, says L. P. Bonnat of White Lily Baking Co., which just made 12 cents the flat price for the rest of its breads, instead of 10 cents. This time there will be no duction, says Bonnat. The can't be, if the bakers are going to stay in business. The Boston Bakery has been asking 12 cents for a long time. Both deliver to retailers and consumers. Bonnat claims that most of other towns in the Southland have been asking 12 cents for months. And this 12-cent bread quality article, says the Anahee bread manufacturer, more nuttious than it has ever been. STEWART REPORTS REALTY ACTIVITY James E. Stewart, local realtor, reports that business is good now in his line. He said that he recently sold for J. W. Dierberger a five-room house lot in the Coffman-Squires addition, to W. R. Peltzke, an orphan rancher living west of town. M. Peltzke purchased the property for Investment. Another half-acre sale in the City Garden Acres poultry color just south of Los Alamitos on th RICHFIELD RICHFIELD, Aug. 15.—(Spl.) The Richfield Chamber of Commerce held its regular meeting Tuesday evening, August 12. The entire board of directors was present and D. D. Luxier president of the organization presided at the meeting. A number of business matters came up for discussion among them being a plan to advertise Richfield, as a coming industrial center. The fact that this wide-awake village possesses unusual facilities as a railroad junction with ample railroad track frontage and abundance of low priced industrial sites, makes Richfield a desirable investment for the far sighted business concerns. A meeting has been called by a committee consisting of Doctor Frank Dowling, William Bielefeldt, J. Charles Thamer, J. H. Lang and John Luffree, to discuss political matters of interest to the people of this district. The get-together rally will take place Friday evening, August 15, in the Placentia grammar school auditorium. Special music and other attractions will add to the gathering. Mr. and Mrs. L. M. Walker and son accompanied by their guests, Mrs. Walter Garby of Lakes and Miss Stella Garby of Minnesota, enjoyed a picnic at Ganesha Park Pomona, Monday evening. Their party was later joined by relatives of Mrs. Walker who reside in Pomona. Mr. and Mrs. Howell Denter and daughters Loree and Phyllis are vacationing at Forest Home with old friends and neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. W. B. Pyles, formerly of Richfield. Mr. and Mrs. Pyle made a trip from the mountain resort in order that Lorce might take part in the children's benefit concert given at the Fairyland Theater in Anaheim last week. Loree is a pupil of Claire Coustaut and interpreted two very pretty fancy dances in costume. Mr. and Mrs. Harry Gendar and family of the Sterns Thompson lease have just returned from their vacation which was spent touring Southern California. Among the many delightful trips taken was a visit to Santa Barbara and near-by beaches. Mr. and Mrs. Jess Holderback were visitors at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Campbell, recently. Fay Karns is vacationing with friends in Los Angeles. J. C. Faggeter of Beaumont spent the week-end with his daughter Mrs. J. H. Summers. Mrs. E. P. Francis assisted in the work of the children's relief fund by selling tickets for the benefit concert. Richfield citizens are making plans to appeal for the early gradual purchase of the property for Investment.

Francis assisted in the work of the children's relief fund by selling tickets for the benefit concert. Richfield citizens are making plans to appeal for the early grading of the remaining stretch of Van Buren street, which extends south of the railroad to the newly paved river boulevard. Mr. and Mrs. Vern Adams and daughter Patricia visited relatives in Los Angeles. A good number of Richfield people attended the "Womanless Wedding" which was staged at the Masonic hall in Yorba Linda, last Friday evening. Mrs. Young of Orange spent Monday with Mrs. J. L. Zuckerman of the general store. The new wigwag which was recently installed at the crossing of the railorad on the river boulevard is receiving the gratified attention of motorists who have long considered this as one of the most dangerous corners in the district. The Richfield Chamber of Commerce secured the co-operation of the Santa Fe railroad officials immediately when the matter was taken up with them. V. C. Barbie was unanimously elected to serve as director on the board of the Richfield Chamber of Commerce to fill the vacancy left by the passing of the late S. F. Collins. A number of Richfield people attended the big meeting of Klu Klux Klan in Brea recently and returned with glowing reports of a masterly speech made by the speaker of the evening. The Richfield branch of the county library which is installed at the home of Mrs. Florence Summers, is proving to be quite popular. Over eighty books were taken out during the past month and a large number of children in addition to their parents also many oil workers are among those who patronize the library. A comprehensize selections of books is available and Miss Livingstone of the county library promises to exchange the entire collection at any RELEASE PRICE OF BREAD TO 12c Please has risen four cents a month and a half ago.

Bonnat of the Lily Baking Co., which has made 12 cents the flat price rest of its breads, instead of cents. Time there will be no re-receipt says Bonnat. There is no if the bakers are going in business. Boston Bakery has been making 12 cents for a long time. It delivers to retailers and others. Nat claims that most of the towns in the Southland have making 12 cents for months. This 12-cent bread is an article, says the Anaheim manufacturer, more nutritionally it has ever been. STWART REPORTS REALTY ACTIVE Jos E. Stewart, local real-estate that business is good in his line. He says he recently sold for J. W. Gerger a five-room house and the Coffman-Squires addi-W. R. Peltske, an orange living west of town. Mr. purchased the property investment.
