John Bruns of North Broadway, is an old friend of C. R. Hunter, mayor of the city of Terre Haute, where Clark at one time was a city policeman. Here is a letter received by Mr. Bruns from Mayor Hunter: of Terre Haute Department R.

Hunter, Mayor Terre Haute, Mar. 15, 1919. Mr. John Bruns, Santa Ana, California: Dear John: I understand from my old friend, Mr. Walter Duenweg, that one of our old- time friends, Stephen A.

Clark, is a candidate for City Marshal of Santa Ana. gives me great pleasure as Mayor of the City of Terre Haute and having known Mr. Ciark for a number of years, to say to the peopie of Santa Ana that they will make no mistake by electing Stephen A.

HUNTER, Mayor. Does it pay to paint carefully farm buildings? Does it add to the selling value of a farm when buildings are properly kept up and regularly painted? A careful Inquiry of a number of leading hankers In the Mississippi valley, including such states as Iowa, Illinois, Michigan, Ohio, Indiana and Missouri, reveals the fact that in nearly every case the bankers did not hesitate to say that they would lend all the way from 5 to 50 per cent, more on land where farm buildings w6re well painted and kept In good condition. They maintain that well kept-up and well painted buildings and fences are an Indication of thrift and that the thrifty farmer Is a good client, and to him money can he safely loaned. An average of the returns from these bankers shows that the increased loan value because of painted buildings Is around 22 per cent. Some of these bankers make interesting comment.

A Michigan concern says that, while not especially prepared to advise definitely in response to this Inquiry, theN)fficers would loan more money on farms where buildings were painted thun where they wore not so treated. This bank also finds i that where houses, barns and fences are well taken care of the farm is a profitable proposition, and hankers In general consider the farmer a good client. Another Michigan hank says buildings out of repair and needing paint Indicate that the owner is slow Such farms are rated at about one-third of the assessed value for loans. Where the farm buildings are In good shape the rating is one- half. The president of a middle western hank says that when real estate loans are considered, painted buildings are always taken into consideration In making an estimate.

The general appearance of the property surrounding the house and barn and also the fields and fences would be carefully He further says that he has no (Authorized Publicity) FOR CITY ATTORNEY Lieut. Swanner, just Home From Overseas, Gives Many Interesting Facts Praising the Salvation Army and the Red Cross as the best friends overseas, explaining why some American soldiers were kept1 in the Argonne battle for twenty-five continuously, and telling in a general 'way of the movements of local Company men in the war. Lieut. Charts D. Swanner, recently returned war veteran, furnished one of the inqst interesting numbers of the Daughters ol Veterans entertainment program at Theater last night.

Greeted by thunderous cheering when he was introduced, Lieut. Swanner told simply of his experiences overseas, including the saying of goodbye to Sergeant Nathaniel Rochester, who was killed in the Battalion, and Ernest Kellogg, who has been missing since that famous battle in which they, along with Captain Hplder- man, participated so gallantly. Kept in Battle 25 Days The speaker told why some American soldiers, including some Orange county men. were kept in the Argonne battle for as high as twenty-five days at a stretch without relief. This was told Swanner at Brest by a colonel from General headquarters.

in the said Swanner, Americans took a number of German prisoners and found enemy soldiers from the same battalion scattered as far as thirty miles or. the battle line. This showed the enemy was disorganized and indicated its weakened condition. Raflier than give the Germans time to reform their troops, the Allied commanders determined upon continuing the drive with all pos- This necessitated keeping Governor Cantu Plans to Link United States Border With Port of San Felipe CALEXICO, April concrete paved toll road, 140 miles long, is to he built, from Mexicali on the international boundary line to the port ol San Felipe on the eastern coast of the Lower California Peninsula. San Felipe is a gulf port with such exceptional natural advantages that railroad and other business men believe that, with adequate transportation facilities, it will become a substantial asset to the Mexican republic and a trading and export center of importance to the T'nited States.

Governor Esteban Cantu of Lower California and men at the head of big fishing interests are financing the project. At the same time reconnai- sance larties of the Southern Pacific Railroad Company are in the field making a tentative survey of a railroad line to connect the gulf port with boundary line cities. San Feline has long been recognized as a port of vantage from which to exploit the resources of the Gulf or California. The gulf abounds in edible fish of several kinds, the tuna being especially sought for. The port also, in accordance with the opinion of men who have been investigating conditions there, offers several attractive opportunities for profitable exploitation.

To Be Winter Resort The temperature there is delightfully warm in winter. During the winter months there is a gentle soft breeze from the south, the atmosphere closely resembling that of the South Sea Islands. These ccnditions, coupled with the fart that there is a hot, salt springsible force those then on the line in the fighting.

beautiful Wilhelm, 24c 23c CROOKS AND FOOLS The American people, called spend -1 thrifts by the rest of the world, were taught the remarkable lesson of thrift in the four Liberty Loan campaigns which were held before the signing of the armistice November 11. Thousands of persons who had never saved a penny in their lives are now holding Liberty Bonds bought on the installment plan. If you have bought a Liberty Bond, hold it. You have the best investment in the world. Every day people who have paid hard earned money for their I bonds are trading them for worthless stocks of a dozen different varieties.

These stocks will never pay them a cent of dividend. They are investing their money in a Mississippi Bubble. let yourself be led astray by a nicely engraved yellow-back certificate that has no guarantee of value land is only supported by gilt edged promises. Before you relinquish your Liberty Bond be certain that you have a better investment. If you follow this rule you will probably keep your bond.

solutely refuse a loan on farms where the buildings were not kept up and well painted. In his judgment, un- palnted farm buildings would reduce the loan value at least 25 per cent. A Minnesota banker says that lie is much more willing to loan money where the buildings are well painted. In his particular case lie believes that he would loan 20 per cent, more than if the buildings were not properly taken care of. A farmer who will keep bis buildings painted takes a much deeper interest his work than one who does not.

Another Minnesota bank says that well painted buildings have resulted in securing from his bank sometimes as high as 25 per cent, more money than where tire buildings are not painted. An Ohio concern says that it will loan 25 per cent. more money on a well kept farm where buildings are painted at least every five years. A southern Illinois bank says that it has no fixed rule about this, but it does make a decided difference when owners of farm lands apply for loans. If the buildings are well painted and thus well preserved the loan rate would not only be cheaper, but the amount of money borrowed would be larger.

A northern Illinois bank does not hesitate to say that it would loan fully 50 per cent, more on a farm where buildings were well painted and in good order than where they were not. The vice president, who answers the inquiry, goes on to say: probably are many farmers good financially and morally who permit their buildings to remain unpainted, but as a rule the most substantial people who live in the country keep their buildings well An Iowa bank, through its vice president, states that it would make a difference of at least 25 per cent in favor of the farm with painted buildings. Another Iowa concern says that it would make a difference of at least 20 per cent. All tills being true, it Is perfectly evident that It is a good business proposition to keep the farm buildings well painted. They not only look better and are more pleasing to the owner, but the farm would sell to better advantage, the loan value of the property would be greatly increased and tho buildings themselves would last much longer and need less American Agriculturist.

C. BURKE IS CAPABLE HONEST COURAGEOUS In selecting a city attorney the people of Santa Ana should vote for the best man available. THE WORK OF A CITY ATTORNEY CALLS FOR AN EXPERT IN MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS. IT CALLS FOR ONE WHO KNOWS MUNICIPAL BUSINESS AND WHO KNOWS MUNICIPAL LAW. One who is not an expert upon municipal affairs can run up a big expense to the city in any of the numerous proceedings needed to carry out city projects.

Ordinances that are incorrectly drawn and have to be published over again, cost money. After all the trouble of trying to pave a street, a city might find its bond issue invalid. Why? Because the city attorney did not steer the ship straight. Such a circumstance can be guarded against by the election of the best available man for city attorney. J.

Washington, D. curious fact has been brought to light by the Educational Bureau and the Bureau of Industrial Research here. It is that in the states where illiteracy is most prevalent paint is least used. The paint referred to is the common or barn variety, of course, for the backwoods countries have no need for the finer pigments or facial adornments. It is true, though, that in the sections of all states where white illiteracy is highest painted homes are rare and painted outbuildings and barns are practically unknown.
