STEALING BRIDE STILL CUSTOM IN WARRING RUSSIA, REPORT War cannot change true love, nor revolutions suddenly overturn the established courting and marriage customs of a people. Today, in Russia, most of the old-time habits of weddings are observed just as they always have been. Indeed, it may be that one of the marriage customs is even more widely observed than in the old days. This is the marriage by abduction. The reason is economy, for it still takes money to be married in Russia, and the old "trimmin's" come high. When the man and the girl come to an understanding he begs a kercief or a hit of ribbon as an emblem of good faith. Then they arrange the day, the hour and the place where he is to snatch her up and carry her away. Often the home of the bride is made the scene of the abduction. When she is away the young man and perhaps two of his men friends post themselves near the house, and the young man "steals" her from her very threshold when she is about to enter the house. Away they dash in a sleigh or an automobile and are often pursued by the angry father and brothers, who may have had a far richer marriage in mind for her. No, indeed, marriage by abduction, even in Russia, is not without its very real perils, and sometimes great dangers. It has happened that a young man failed in his attempt to steal a bride, and has been tied up outside her door, exposed to the bitter cold, all night long. But if the abduction is successful, the bride and groom are compelled by custom to return to her house and beg pardon of her parents. They kneel in the snow before the door until the parents relent and invite them to enter the house. Sometimes they bring a priest with them, so their prayers may sooner be answered by her parents. Deeds speak louder than words in a real estate transaction. Usually the louder a man talks less it amounts to. Foley's Friendly Fancies ALL I CAN SAY Old Fellow, I'm sorry—that's all I can say.

And, what friends may say, we must bear them alone. But maybe there's comfort, when hope seems at end, Not in hearing or seeing—just having a friend. I can't say the plan of it all will unfold.

THE ANAHEIM HERALD JOB PRINTING DEPARTMENT Phone 540 BREAK WORLD RECORD FOR NON-STOP PLANE FLIGHT IN N.Y. MINEOLA, N.Y., Dec. 30.—The world's record for non-stop flight was broken today by Edward Stinson and Lloyd Bertaud in a limousine SJL-6, all metal monoplane. At 8:20 a.m. the machine was still flying and the previous record of 24 hours, 19 minutes, 7 seconds, was smashed. This mark was established in Etampes, France, in 1920 by Lieutenants Boseoutrot and Bernard. The aviators went up at 8:59 a.m. yesterday. The machine, bucking bitter gales, kept going, the evident intention of the aviators being to establish a record of their own. The two men in the machine, which was flying at an altitude of about $800 feet were believed to be in good condition. They were in an enclosed cabin, heated by the motor exhaust and were well supplied with coffee and provisions. Avilators were watching the flight from Mineola believed the fuel might be running low, as the machine had been fighting severe winds which at times seemed almost to stop it dead. The announcement that the record had been broken was made by the Aeronautical Chamber of Commerce which had experts on the scene watching the flight. Throughout the night the machine had zoomed around and around in a twenty-mile circle over the towns of Hempstead and Mineola. Great searchlights illuminated the flying fields at night so that a forced landing could be made if necessary and the aviators would have no trouble in keeping their bearings. Stinson and Bertaud, working under the plans agreed on before they started, were taking turns at the wheel. The machine which broke the record is owned by John Larsen. It carried at the start 350 gallons of gasoline and 28 gallons of oil. $5,000,000 Gift Made To Sears and Roebuck CHICAGO, Dec. 30.—Sears, Roebuck & Company last night reported the sale to Julius Rosenwald, president of the company, of certain of its Chicago real estate for $15,000,000 and the gift of 50,000 shares of its stock of a par value of $5,000,000 from Mr. Rosenwald, thus permitting the company "to go through this period of readjustment with its capital unimpaired and with a small surplus." Mr. Rosenwald already has made the first payment of 25 per cent, or $4,000,000, on the real estate in cash and Liberty bonds. Los Angeles Bank Teller Nabbed in East CHICAGO, Dec. 30.—Walter Johnson, friend of young Willie Dalton, who walked out of the Northern Trust Company, where he was employed with nearly $5,000,000 several months ago, was arrested last night at his parents' home. 4617 North Ashland avenue. He is charged with forging a check for $900 on the Continental National Bank or Los Angeles, which employed him as a teller. He denied Dalton's attempted theft inspired his action, saying: "My feet got restless, I simply wanted to travel." Charley White Will Meet Rocky Kansas and Tendler CHICAGO, Dec. 30.—Charley White, Chicago lightweight contender, will box Rocky Kansas and Lew Tendler in Madison Square Garden shortly, it was announced by his manager today. Arrangements with the exception of fixing the exact dates, were completed between the local boy, who wants another chance at Champion Leonard and Leo Flynn, matchmaker for Tex Rickard.

Hempstead and Mineola. Great searchlights illuminated the flying fields at night so that a forced landing could be made if necessary and the aviators would have no trouble in keeping their bearings. Stinson and Bertaud, working under the plans agreed on before they started, were taking turns at the wheel. The machine which broke the record is owned by John Larsen. It carried at the start 350 gallons of gasoline and 28 gallons of oil. NOTICE FOR PUBLICATION OF TIME OF PROVING WILL, ETC. In the Superior Court of the County of Orange, State of California.

A meeting was held to discuss the erection of a monument in memory of a certain regiment. Somebody suggested that the memorial should also bear the names of the battles the regiment had engaged in. But an Irishman objected. "You're not going to put Bull Run on the monument, are you?" "Yes, Why not?" replied the chairman. "'Cos I won't 'ave it,'" said the Irishman. "Were you at Bull Run?" asked the other. "Yes," said Pat. "Yes, I was thar, can I did run, and all them that didn't are thar now." An airman had been taking up passengers for short trips, and by the time his last trip came he was absolutely fed up by being asked silly questions. He told his passengers, two ladies, that on no account were they to speak to him; that he could not talk and give his attention to his machine, and that they must keep silent. Up they went and the airman quite enjoyed himself. He looped the loop and practiced all sorts of stunts to his own satisfaction with no interruption from his passengers until he felt a touch on his arm. "What is it?" he said impatiently. "I'm so sorry to trouble you," said voice behind, "and I know I oughtn't to sneak." I do apologize sincerely but... tately fed up by being asked silly questions.

Help them went and the airman quite enjoyed himself. He looped the loop and practiced all sorts of stunts to his own satisfaction with no interruption from his passengers until he felt a touch on his arm. “What is it?” he said impatiently. “I’m so sorry to trouble you,” said voice behind, “and I know I ought not to speak. I do apologize sincerely, but can’t help it. I thought perhaps you ought to know Annie’s gone.” It is a lucky thing for somebody when a moonshine still blows up. A little later the explosive might have been wronging a human stomach. NOT DUE FOR ANOTHER. Motel Clerk—Would you like a room with a bath? Farmer Finn—No, just give me a room. I took a good wash before I left home last week. AT THE MILLINER'S. He—Do you believe man is made of dust? She—Well, not all men. Dust always settles, but some men don’t. YOU can exist if you have food and to wear, but if you are actually—a really comfortable, cheerful home creates a love of the beautiful, the real of ideals held firm and realized—of taste and personality expressed!

Noted Singer Coming Ellis Rhodes, noted tenor and choir leader, will be in the services as choir director, at the White Temple Sunday, Mr. Rhodes has a remarkable voice and has had wire experience as a director. His time is now taken up with his studio work in Redlands university, Santa Ana and Anaheim. He has studied abroad and for five years was at the head of the music department of Morningside College, Iowa. His work at the University of Redlands is similar to that in Morningside. Remarking that parents have abandoned the habit of giving their infants strings of Christian names, the author of "Recollections and Reflections" writes: "A parson in Somersethire was christening a child in his village. He could not gather whether the child's name was to be Anna or Hannah, so stooping down, he asked the mother, 'How do you spell it?' "In an embarrassed and confidential whisper she replied: 'Well, I ain't no schollard neither, sir.'" The man became very ill in the night and talked a lot of nonsense in his fever. When the doctor returned in the morning he said to the nurse: "Tell me exactly what happened after I left." "You were hardly out of the room," she began, "when he said, 'When did that old fool say he was coming back again?' Those were the last sensible words the patient spoke." — Ben Baxter, contractor, 260W. — Adv. THE CORRECT ANSWER The Teacher—You have failed in geography again. Bobbie—No'm.
