AIM OF ANAHEIM;
LEAD, NOT FOLLOW.
Anaheim is a progressive city in many respects, but in others, there is much to be desired.
A drive by the Chamber of Commerce to obtain the things to be desired is now on, and every loyal citizen will do his share.
Anaheim needs a public comfort station and rest room. Anaheim needs a tourist hotel and Anaheim needs public co-operation to make the Valencia Orange Show an annual institution.
A campaign is under way to bring all these things about, and more. A small group of busy men have given much of their time to make property and life in Anaheim something worth while. Now it is up to some others to give a lift.
A civic organization such as the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce is something that means dollars and cents to every property owner and every business man in Anaheim.
The Chamber of Commerce is an organization that brings homeseekers to Anaheim. Every family that comes here, brings business for the doctor, lawyer, and merchant.
There are many property owners in Anaheim who are not doing their part to push Anaheim ahead. They stand idly and indifferently aside while others enhance the value of their

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
LECTURE AT GRAND
SUNDAY AFTERNOON
First Church of Christ, Scientist, of Anaheim announces a free lecture on Christian Science by Mrs. Blanche K. Corby, C. S. B., of Los Angeles, member of the Board of Lectureship of the Mother Church of Boston.
The lecture will be held in the Grand theatre tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock and the public is cordially invited. Mrs. Corby is a very interesting speaker and her address will no doubt be heard by a large number of people who are interested in Science or hope to be interested.

IT CAN BE DONE; PARDONING JURIES.
Mrs. Cora Orthwein, the Chicago woman who killed the married man with whom she lived, was acquitted by a Chicago jury Friday. The state's attorney remarked that the acquittal told the same old story,—that it is impossible to convict a good looking woman.
The state's attorney is wrong. Let a good-looking woman murder someone worth while, someone whose life has not been a series of illegitimate attacks against organized society, and we believe she will be convicted, although we doubt if she will be called upon to pay the penalty with her life.
The man Mrs. Orthwein killed was another of the Jake Hamon type. He held a responsible position with a big manufacturing company and prosperity unbalanced his governing wheel. When he found himself getting an immense salary, as salaries go, he immediately looked around for an attractive looking woman and he found her. With utter disregard for the welfare and happiness of his wife, this man sought the night-life, and he found it. He double-crossed his wife and was beginning to double-cross his "affinity."
Jurymen are not disposed to allow a good-looking face to dethrone their minds. The man Mrs. Orthwein killed was not a credit to organized society and in removing him, the jury gave Mrs. Orthwein the benefit of the doubt as to whether it was in self-deceit.
BANKER WILL TOUR EAST FOR SEVERAL WEEKS WITH FAMILY
Charles A. Boege, vice-president of the First National Bank, will leave tomorrow for a trip to various points in the east, the trip ending in New York. Mr. Boege will be accompanied by his family.
In Cleveland, Ohio, they will be met by relatives of Mrs. Boege and together they will tour to Niagara Falls, the Great Lakes and down the Hudson to New York. The Boege family will be away several weeks.
PREACHER SAYS HE WILL WORK LATER TO SAVE SOULS
"If any souls are going to their Savior, it will probably be late before they get to it," an Evangelist told Officer Boynton and Ryan last night. A report that the preacher and his congregation were making a great deal of disturbance sent the officers down.
Their report in full stated: "Investigated and found that a few souls were being saved. Notified preacher that congregation had disturbed neighborhood, and asked if he intended to keep up services to 12 o'clock every night. Preacher replied that if there were any who were receiving their Savior it would probably be late before they got through."
With utter disregard for the welfare and happiness of his wife, this man sought the night life, and he found it. He double-crossed his wife and was beginning to double-cross his "affinity."
Jurymen are not disposed to allow a good looking face to dethrone their minds. The man Mrs. Orthwein killed was not a credit to organized society and in removing him, the jury gave Mrs. Orthwein the benefit of the doubt as to whether it was in self defense or revenge.
When a man gets drunk and drives an automobile at high speed, he is taking his life in his own hands and he is considered a felon, in this state at least, and if he is killed as a result of his indescretion, no one blames the automobile, so why blame a woman who is the running mate of a man who has no regard for law and order?
The Anaheim Herald is not taking sides with Mrs. Orthwein or Mrs. Clara Smith Hamon or any woman of that type, but the Anaheim Herald believes some men get what they deserve in such cases as the Orthwein and Hamon instances. It would be much better and less expensive to acquit at the coroner's inquest instead of putting the state's taxpayers to the expense of a "luxurious" trial.
Fullerton has gone on record for law and order. Seven citizens paid fines from $150 to $900 today for violating the Volstead act. You can fool some people all the time, but you can't fool all the people all the time.
One week from today several thousand people will know how it feels to pay $200 for a seat to see two men earn $200,000 in three to thirty minutes. It isn't done every day.

Responding to the call for community service, fourteen busy men have agreed to serve as captains under the leadership of District Leaders H. M. Adams and Chas. Eygabroad during the expansion campaign of the Anaheim Chamber of Commerce.

SPEEDY ACTION IS ASKED IN WATER SERVICE CASE
Complaint was presented to the Railroad Commission yesterday afternoon by Attorneys Marks & Lanrau of Fullerton, representing Mrs. F. Morri and others, against W. S. B. Lawrie, and it is expected a hearing will be held within the next few days.
Mrs. Morri and others living in the Swan tract are endeavoring to compel Lawrie to serve them water, as he has done in the past. They are without water service of any kind as a result of Lawrie's action in discontinuing service the complaint says.

George Covert's "push-mule" will perform this evening somewhere on or near Center street. The muless, known as Dandelion pushed Covert from New York to San Diego, Covert, an invalid ride in his wheelchair while Dandelion did the head work, or rather the pushing.
Covert is raising money to produce a motion picture of his trip and the hold-ups he encountered coming across the continent. He sells post card pictures of his outfit, including Dandelion, a muless that absolutely refuses to make friends with anyone, regardless of their standing in any community.

SNAPPY BOXING BILL AT GRARKIS DANCH
Mr. Adams has secured the promised co-operation of the following seven: Vic La Mont, Herman Stern, H. E. W. Barnes, William Falkenstein, William Goodrum, William T. Wallop, and Rev. H. G. Schmelzer.
It is believed by officials of the Chamber that these are two very evenly matched teams and keen competition is looked forward to during the three days of the campaign.
The date of the intensive campaign has been set for July 5, 6 and 7. The teams will work from 9 a.m. to noon and meet at lunch for reports on the day's work. These lunches are expected to be about the most interesting affairs that have occurred in the city for some time.
It is planned to divide the city into two parts, and then subdivide each part into seven subdivisions. Each captain will have charge of one of these subdivisions. The captains will secure the promise of five men each to assist the men covering the territory that has been assigned to them.
The district leaders have invited the captains to be their guests at a luncheon next Monday noon in the rooms of the Chamber. At this time the workers for the campaign will be chosen and during next week an all-tight team organization will be built.
"It seems to me," said Campaign Manager Schouboe this morning, "that Chairm McCord has given us the slogan for this campaign when he said at yesterday's luncheon, 'The time has come—Let's go!' There is work for everybody to do during the next five or six weeks. Anaheim is destined to become great just in the measure of the assistance and co-operation given by her citizens in this campaign, and the work of the days and years to follow. The most important period, of course, is the beginning. We need the co-operation of every live wire in the city. Let's go!"

SNAPPY BOXING BILL AT SPARK'S RANCH BIG AUDIENCE
There were five very good boxing events at the Spark ranch on the Garden Grove road last night and the largest attendance of the season greeted the boxers. Fully four hundred boxing fans were present.
The events in their order and their results were as follows:
Young Volmer of Orange and Kid Leo of Los Angeles fought four fast rounds to a draw. Volmer was the aggressor and landed oftener, but Leo's punches hit home and he was the stronger of the two at the finish.
Young Eckhardt of Huntington Beach and Kid Moon of Santa Ana went four rounds to a draw. Eckhardt is a fast boy and handles himself a whole lot like Corbett did when at his best.
Kid Moon, brother of the chap who boxed Eckhardt, knocked out Kid Kansas in the first round. Moon knocked Kid Kansas through the ropes with a body blow. Kansas took the count to eight and returned to be knocked out a moment later with a right and left to the jaw.
Young Parker of Los Angeles made his first appearance in Orange county against Knockout Swall of Santa Ana and won himself a home with Orange county fight fans by fighting four hard rounds and winning the decision.
The main event was between Red Mathews, pride of Anaheim, and George Sherman of Los Angeles. Red was not at his best and many of his admirers were of the opinion that he had not trained as hard as he should when pitted against a man of Sherman's ability. Sherman fought from start to finish and won the decision.
The fans were very much pleased when the announcement was made that the Anaheim Daily-Herald has arranged to give the Carpentier-Dempsey fight by megaphone Saturday, July 2, punch by punch, trick by trick, as vividly as at the ringside.

DRS. COWLES AND GRAVES PLEAD GUILTY
Drs. D. C. Cowles and R. V. Graves, well known Fullerton physicians, entered pleas of guilty before City Judge French in Fullerton today to charges preferred against them by agents of the government, accusing them of violation of the Volstead act.
Fines running from $150 to $900 were assessed and collected from the physicians and five others who entered pleas of guilty.
The others arrested by federal agents and the Fullerton city police were Phillip Graddock, J. Goty, G. Roscoe, Hazel Smith and W. P. Bentley.
Government agents have been busy in Orange county for some time and in their work have been aided by the cities, and by citizens' committees in other places.
The bootlegging business in Orange county is on the way out, as evidenced by the action of the federal agents in Fullerton. Federal agents have been in Anaheim and it is said that it is impossible to procure liquor here. The federal agents made no arrests here, but it is understood, according to reliable information, that some very sincere promises were made by those who were under suspicion.
The sudden halt in action in Anaheim against those under suspicion is said to be the outcome of a definite understanding that hereafter no violations of the law in the matter of liquor dispensation will occur. This, according to those close to the situation, is more satisfactory to them than the

COMPLAINING MAN CANNOT BE FOUND COOK MAY BE FREED
Arrested at San Diego after eluding the authorities for more than a year, Marcelle Cook, a clairvoyant, charged with obtaining money under false pretenses, may escape conviction after all.
Orange county authorities admitted this when they stated that the man who swore to the complaint against Cook is now in the East, his exact whereabouts being unknown. It was also reported that the complaint, which was supposed to be on file in the office of Judge Howard here can not be found.
Cook was arrested by Deputy Sheriff Joe Fowler on a warrant which has been in possession of the sheriff for a year or more. His location was made known by Mrs. Harry Y. Cohen, who was in the district attorney's office Wednesday in connection with another case.
Mrs. Cohen said that her husband and Cook used to work together. She just surmised, she said, that the authorities might be looking for Cook and upon being informed that they were she revealed his whereabouts.
It was not known who swore to the complaint against Cook. The document could not be located and the authorities did not remember the man's name. They were sure, however, that he departed for the Atlantic coast some time ago.
We hope Mr. Ford's imitation cow will be more successful than the imitator in Anaheim and it is said that it is impossible to procure liquor here.

"The sudden halt in action in Anaheim against those under suspicion is said to be the outcome of a definite understanding that hereafter no violations of the law in the matter of liquor dispensation will occur. This according to those close to the situation, is more satisfactory to them than the expense of prosecution and gathering evidence.
JUDGE COX MADE GOAT AT BANQUET FINALLY ACQUITTED
Justice of the Peace J. B. Cox knows what Bebe Daniels experienced today, after returning from a frolic yesterday at the weekly lunch-eon of the Progressive Business Men's Club of Long Beach.
Charged with "killing Bebe Daniels" pet goat," the judge was arrested at the banquet by Chief of Police McLendon. Instead of being taken to jail, Judge Cox was taken before the gathering of business men. He was found guilty and fined, and also sentenced to serve six months in the new Long Beach jail. The jail sentence was later suspended.
The complaint in the case charged disorderly conduct, breach of the peace, mayhem, homicide and high treason. The defendant was represented by Phil M. Swaffield and prosecuted by Nolan Swaffield, and George N. Splcer. Judge Cox asked to be heard in his own behalf but the court refused the request.
It was charged in the complaint that in coming from Santa Anas Cox drove a 1903 Ford at that while proceeding at the rate of five miles an hour, run over and killed a pet goat belonging to Bebe Daniels. The court was denominated, the "Inferior Court of Los Angeles County." It was alleged that the action of the justice was purely malicious, that he was more or less of sound mind and body. He was found guilty on all counts. Defendants counsel: provoked laughter by stating that the defendant did not kill Miss Daniels' goat because he still has it. Cox said he wasn't sure whether he got Miss Daniels' goat or she got his.

Thoughts for Anaheim Citizens
No. 2
One of the things that Anaheim citizens must bear in mind is that a community obligation rests equally heavy on each individual. In community work careful consideration is given to every step and no individual is asked to do a thing unless in the judgment of the organization he is fitted to perform that duty.
And it is just as important to do the little things as the big things. Every action has a vital bearing upon the results as a whole. When a small pin slips out of the differential of an automobile, the whole machine may be useless until that part is replaced. Therefore, it is necessary that no one hold up the speed of the whole organization by neglecting to do that thing which he is requested to do, be it ever so small, or exceedingly large.
The whole fabric of civilization is so woven that no thread may be neglected without the imperfection showing.
It is not mere numbers that count. If it was China would be the greatest nation in the world, and the blacks of Africa would be far in advance of the Caucasian race. For continued advancement, you must do your share along with the others who are working.
Give a thought to Anaheim.
