TELLS PLAN FOR HOME-MADE LEVEL The best instrument for running terrace lines, open pitches or leveling ground to a grade is a good telescope farm level properly adjusted. Too often such work is done by the "natural eye" and this is a case where the eye is not to be trusted and an uneven grade resulting. When such an instrument as mentioned above is not at hand the following is recommended as a substitute. The home-made level using a two foot carpenters level is made by nothing twoslw" x 4" each three feet long on to a 16 foot, 1" x 4", and then generally fastening the carpenter's level on top of the 16 foot board. If desired the board may be more or less than 16 feet in length. The legs should be securely braced to the horizontal begin. This outfit should be tested by setting the legs on two pegs or on a level surface, and then reversing end for end. If the bubble tube knows the outfit level in both positions it can be safely arranged that it is correct. If not, the necessary corrections will have to be made until it does show level in both positions. After it has been adjusted a block three quarters of an inch or one inch in thickness according to the fall that is destrain, may be nailed on the better of one of the legs to give the fall. If a one inch block and a 16 foot horizontal board are used, the instrument will give one inch grade 18 feet or 6 inches in 26 feet. To use the home-made level set it down at some point where the ditch is to run with the long leg in the direction it is desired for the water to flow. Then move one leg around until the instrument reaches level. Carry it forward and place the rear leg in exactly the same position where the front leg was and then move the front leg around until the outfit shows level again. Then move forward as before, being careful that the rear leg is set down to the same level as the front leg was. Every second or third point located should be stoked so that the line can be followed with the plow. Always see that the long plane in Which Wade Will Compete Lieut.

BIRTHDAY PARTY The Home Oil Co. of Anaheim celebrated its second anniversary last night by inviting the Home Oil Co. from Ponona, Riverside, Redlands, and San Diego to help them put across the biggest time of the year. Thirty years ago Mr. A. N. Younglove, of Riverside, started what was the original Home Oil Co. of today with a team of horses and a tank wagon.

The Home Oil Co. of Anaheim is managed by R. J. Grange and J. W. Henthorn, in charge of the local yard, also is interested. Seventy-two of the employers, employees and families met at the Anaheim plant, and there was much favorable comment on the cleanliness of the yards and the chiney appearance of the trucks, tractors and equipment. As the party gathered the assistance of the "speed cop," Jim Hurley, was apparent to help control the congested traffic on West Broadway. The program opened by the Messrs Orange and Henthorn bringing in "Old Glory" as the crowd sang "Star Spangled Banner." A monologue by R. J. Grange was the novel method of introducing the personnel of the host organization. A recitation, "In the Miner's Camp," and a song, "Ole' Zip Cron," were given by Miss Marion Henthorn, Pomona, accompanied by Mr. Goodin. A Little Bit of Nonsense was the topic of Mr. Gladhill's contribution. "I have just from Sweden," was readied by J. L.

This historic spot on the link of this coast highway still to be constructed is one of the prettiest on the Serra side of Laguna, and the development, including all modern improvements, is unusually elaborate. Dr. J. L. Beebe is president of the Bad Junn Point Corporation, which is laying out the sub-division, and Mrs. Eva Beebe vice president. Negotiations just completed call for the construction of an 18-hole golf course, tennis courts, polo ground, yacht pavilion, 50-pound hotel, bathing pavilion, plunge, baseball diamond, etc. Located only a short distance from the present coast highway and only seven miles from Laguna, Dana Point is easily reached in two directions. A flag raising, with spouses, band concert and luncheon composed the program Saturday. The Yacht and Country club to be built will be in the Mission style and contain 260 large sleeping rooms, each with private bath and shower. A project of a steam service between Long Beach and Dana Point will if realized, mean great things for the entire piece of coastland. R. D. Dann, Jr., in his "Two Years Before the Mast," speaks in warm terms of Dana Point and vicinity.

Bryan received and formally accepted the nomination of his party as candidate for vice-president. Large amplifiers on the speaker's platform in the center of the field carried the voice of the nominee to the thousands gathered in the stadium, while powerful radio stations in Lincoln, Hastings, Neb., and Chicago enabled millions or others to "listen in" on the ceremonies. Billy came home from school bearing every evidence of having had the worst of a fight. "Why, Billy!" exclaimed his mother. "How often have I told you to play only with good little boys? Good little boys don't fight." "Well," said Billy, through his tears, "I thought he was a good little boy till I hit him." Plain Dealer Classified Ads produce results. Try this medium.
