Dear Walt:— I guess the cut glass fly swatter and the barbed wire powder puff are not good enough for you this year.

WOULD CLEAR CHURCH TITLE Asserting that "persons unknown" claim some interest in the I guess the cut glass fly swatter and the barbed wire powder puff are not good enough for you this year. I would even be ashamed to present you with the brown derby and the green bicycle, for any guy who can cop off two of the capital prizes in the first season's crop estimate. My contest is too darned high-toned to hand an ordinary prize, but the enclosed checks, which represent the first prize for Class A associations both for the average seasons' estimate and the final pre-season estimate should anyway buy you a new spring suit with possibly enough left over for shoes for the baby and maybe you can use the $175 berries which the boys have won for your Association in painting up the old plant or in some other useful and suitable way. You and your crop reporters in your district are certainly to be congratulated on doing such careful and accurate work, under which circumstances. It is really a pleasure, Old Top, to present you with the awards of merit. Sincerely, C. THORPE, General Manager Medical Staff for County Hospital Following the recommendation of the grand jury to the Orange County Medical Society, through its President, Dr. H. D.

"Too Busy to Write," Ruins Many Friendships—Says Prima Donna Schumann-Heink, World's Best Loved Singer, Answers Thousands of Letters Each Week. Who is the best loved singer in the world? There is, of course, no way of telling without taking an individual poll, but it looks as if Madame Ernestine Schumann-Heink would stand an excellent chance of heading the list if the hundreds of letters from enthusiastic admirers which she receives daily are any guage. So wide is her acquaintance that she has often been called "the lady of a million friends." On holidays her regular mail is trebled by the thousands of greeting cards which pour in from her admirers from every corner of the globe. Many of them are from people of whom she has never heard before, who take advantage of holidays or anniversaries to send her delicate expression of their appreciation of her music. "But although I know personally but a fraction of those who send me their good wishes," says Madame Schumann-Heink, "I count them all my friends. Nothing is so wonderful as a message from a friend on Easter, a birthday or an anniversary. Nothing can be dearer to a mother than such a message from her children on Mothers' Day. "The practice of sending a happy thought or two to a distant friend is to my mind a beautiful one which, I hope, will grow in popularity. It keeps friendships from flying. If you lead a busy life and have many friends, it is often impossible to find time to write letters to each one. Frequently they drift away and are lost. A greeting card at Easter or Christmas, on Mothers' Day, which I place next in importance, or on birthdays or anniversaries would keep children and friends a little closer to our hearts. "I find that very old people or very young people are especially pleased with cards. They reassure those who are passing into the twilight of life of the continued love and regard of their friends. And for children their bright colors and charming pictures have a particular fascination." INSTALL NESDAY EVE AT UNITED TUESDAY - WEDNESDAY GREAT DIVIDE" FULL OF THRILLS Seldom have we seen such a combination of cast, production and story as in "The Great Divide," the Metro-Goldwyn picture which opened at the Calif Theatre last night, and which will be shown tonight and Tuesday. The story, which is from the famous stage play by William Vaughn Moody, is strong and full of numerous twists and thrills that keep one spellbound from start to finish. The cast, headed by Conway Tearle and Alice Terry, contains also the names of Wallace Been Huntly Gordon, ZaSu Pitts, Allan Forrest, George Cooper and William Orlamond. The story starts in a small New England village and travels from there to the Painted Desert of Arizona. It is a psychological story of a woman's pride and battle between her conscious mind and her subconscious instincts. Alice Terry as the girl, Ruth Jordon, gives a performance which is flawless and, though it is one of the most difficult roles ever brought to the screen, she carries it so convincingly that she makes it a reality. Tearle, as the man of the Painted Desert, is a cross between a polished gentleman and a cavemen, a combination which produces a powerful mental and physical creature of great fascination.

Mozley is prosecuting the case, while Attorney Clyde Bishop of Santa Ana is representing the defendant. Justice K. E. Morrison today ordered a bench warrant issued for the arrest of W. G. Hatch, official of the San Diego Cinema corporation, due in his court today on a charge of obtaining money under a false pretence. Hatch has been at liberty on his own recognition. Hatch was arrested some months ago at the instigation of W. J. McCarty, Anaheim rancher, who gave a $3100 trust deed to the concern when he was told it was to get Thedo Bara, Mrs. Sidney Drew and other under contract. Mrs. Mary Singleton, his wife, often participated in "wild" parties in the rooms of other men and when he would take her to dances she would refuse to dance with him, but would select other partners. Clarence E. Singleton of Santa Ana told Superior Judge Z. B West, who gave him a decree of divorce. One of the men who attentions toward Mrs. Singleton were said to have been notorious was Clint Graham, the husband said. He married the woman in Los Angeles in 1978.
