PLAYGROUND PLANS FOR Y. M. C. A. NEAR COMPLETION HERE Plans are well under way and the work fairly well started in re-arranging the Y. M. C. A. playgrounds and swimming pool on South Philadelphia street. At a meeting of the building committee of the Y. M. C. A. of Anaheim recently plans and program of the summer months were gone into and discussed. It was decided, first of all, to take down the old "jail" fence and substitute a woven wire one in its place. The swimming pool is to be claimed and painted, and inclosed with the tight board fence such as was originally around the play-ground, and the sidewalk around the pool widened to the fence. A two-inch intake for water to the pool is being installed so that the water may be changed two or three times a week if necessary, thereby keeping the pool as clean as possible. The building committee recommended to the finance committee a budget of twelve hundred dollars which is to provide for the necessary repairs to the plant, the regular county quota for 1921, and the salary of a man to be employed three days a week to supervise the work at the building. A tentative program for the summer work was drawn up by the Y. M. C. A. secretaries and adopted by the building committee. The program calls for the organization of classes of boys according to age, which are to have the use of the grounds at certain definite times, under the direction of the instructor. Membership cards will be sold to the boys and the plant-run similar to the gym class. Boys under twelve year be admitted to the good o'clock for an hour games. At ten o'clock has the pool and boys fourteen are admitted grounds. At 11 o'clock comes out of the pool class goes in, staying to have the use of the ground thirty in the afternoon, thirty and be away at. One of the features which it is hoped will fuse, is the organization men's class, which use of the grounds from seven-thirty. Volleyball be organized, indoor basketball played and whatever else do. The evenings will be to the employed boys. Maxwell Prices Reduced—Now New Organization, Taking Full Control Turns Prices Back Three Years The last step in the Maxwell reorganization was the sale of the Maxwell properties to the new and powerful organization, May 12. The first step of the new organization was to raise the value of the good Maxwell still higher, by restoring prices to the former low level of 1918. The reduction is $150 on each of the four models, effective at once. This is the second price revision made by the new organization; and New Organization, Taking Full Control Turns Prices Back Three Years The last step in the Maxwell reorganization was the sale of the Maxwell properties to the new and powerful organization, May 12. The first step of the new organization was to raise the value of the good Maxwell still higher, by restoring prices to the former low level of 1918. The reduction is $150 on each of the four models, effective at once. This is the second price revision made by the new organization; and the total reduction from the high level, since Sept. 28, 1920, has been $310 on open cars and $350 on closed cars. What this latest action means, literally, is turning back Maxwell prices to the basis of 1918. The truth is that the good Maxwell today is a better car than it was three years ago. It has been given a new goodness, by lowering costs, by increasing plant efficiency, and by greatly improving the manufacturing practices. The new organization now owns the great Maxwell plants outright. Its way is clear to carry out in full its larger plans and policies. It pledges itself never to stop working for the further betterment of the good Maxwell, and for the greater satisfaction of present and future owners of this good car.

Boys under twelve years of age will be admitted to the grounds at nine o'clock for an hour of play and games. At ten o'clock the first class has the pool and boys from twelve to fourteen are admitted to the playgrounds. At 11 o'clock the first class comes out of the pool and the second class goes in, staying until noon. The boys from fourteen to sixteen will have the use of the grounds at two-thirty in the afternoon, swim at three-thirty and be away at four-thirty. One of the features planned and which it is hoped will find a hearty response, is the organization of a business men's class, which is to have the use of the grounds from five-thirty to seven-thirty. Volley ball teams will be organized, indoor base-ball games played and whatever the men wish to do. The evenings will be given over to the employed boys of Anaheim from sixteen and over. It is also hoped that certain days may be set aside for women and girls and if a girls director can be secured this will be done. By having right supervision the committee feels that a very helpful program can be put on, and the place used as it was intended to be. It is hoped to have the place ready to begin activities by June 1st. HAPPY COUPLE SAY LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT ALWAYS All have heard various ways and means of causing married life to be one grand, sweet song, but Mr. and Mrs. Jerry Seeman of this city, who celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary yesterday with their ten children, declare that the road to happiness traveled by them for 21,900 days, or 60 years, was the one that caused both of them to "live only unto thee," and place their burdens in the hands of a Higer Power. Speaking yesterday of their married life, Mrs. Seeman said: "Women must treat their husbands well, if they would live happily with them for as long a period as my husband and I have lived together," declared Mrs. Seeman today. "I have always made it a practice to provide my husband and family with well-cooked food—and there were times in our early married life that food was hard to secure. I have learned that one must have patience, that a woman must bear with the faults of her helpmate and must do her utmost to make life in the home agreeable." "We have had our spats—this I am willing to admit. A person does get angry on occasion, and there are very few unions in which there are not at times slight differences. Neither should harbor the little animosities long and should get over them and forget all about them quickly. They are only incidentals along the road." "I have always taken a deep interest in the affairs of my husband and in my younger days went out on the ANNUAL PICNIC IS GREAT SUCCESS IN FARM EFFICIENCY (Farm Bureau Bulletin) The fourth annual picnic of the Orange County Farm Bureau was an unusual success. Farmers came from every part of Orange county to do homage to their organization, and hear the inspiring messages of their leaders. Dr. Walker, president of the California Farm Bureau Federation, gave a forceful address covering the immediate problems of the farmers in the nation. He showed very clearly how the farm bureau was approaching their solution by active and capable departments which are studying and working out details for every agricultural industry. Legislators and big business are coming to the farmers now since the big farm bureau movement has swung across the country. "The farm bureau is the pulse of the farmers in every community, and through the local unit he is being heard in the county, state and nation." R. B. Peters, vice-president of the Farm Bureau Federation, spoke of a number of state projects undertaken by the farm bureau, including the state market exchange, public utilities department, grain corporation and others. Regional Directors Felix Landis of San Diego; Dr. Gordon, Riverside; R. B. Peters, San Barnardino; Volney Craig, Los Angeles, and E. E. Campbell, Orange, were in session both morning and afternoon. Farm Advisors Fox, San Bernardo; Hodgson, Gordon, Los Angeles; and Nebelung, Riverside county, were also present. The visitors were very profuse in their remarks about the success of the day and stated that Orange county lead the south in farm bureau picnics. Never had such numbers of farmers congregated before for a similar occasion in the other southern counties. A splendid program of music was rendered by the authorities of Anaheim. "We have had our spats—this I am willing to admit. A person does get angry on occasion, and there are very few unions in which there are not at times slight differences. Neither should harbor the little animosities long and should get over them and forget all about them quickly. They are only incidentals along the road. "I have always taken a deep interest in the affairs of my husband and in my younger days went out on the farm and assisted him in his daily tasks of planting and harvesting. It was not slavely for me. It was my pride and my happiness that I could thus assist him in getting our start in life as man and wife. His success was my happiness." "The object of marriage is the choice of a companion through life," said Seeman. "A man should be strictly on the square when courting his sweetheart. After marrying her he should treat her as a companion and help meet. The wife should be his companion, not his slave. He should be her companion, not her lord. The husband is the oak, the wife the ivy. The oak supports the ivy that clings around it and the ivy in turns adorns and beautifies the oak. The two must agree and be agreeable. They should be physically, mentally, socially and religiously adapted to each other. "One of the secrets that has made it possible for us to live harmoniously together so long is that we have lived and loved our Lord Jesus Christ and loved each other. We have lived a clean, moral life. We have eaten plain food and slept eight hours out of each twenty-four. We have always been temperate in everything." Seeman is 84 years old and Mrs. Seeman 77. Both are in good health and active, she doing her housework and he working about the place and keeping up the grounds of their pretty little "love nest" in Resh steet.
