MORE STREET LIGHTS ORDERED BY BOARD SOUTH LOS GANELES AND WALNUT STREETS TO BE LIGHTED Realti Liquor License Granted to Cottle & Dyckman for Saloon in the New Mitchell Block—K. of P's to Build a $3500 Club House — Thirteen Building Permits Granted — Judge Howard Reports Business Picking Up — Reports of Marshal, Treasurer, Etc. A committee representing South Los Angeles street, headed by D. Gervais, met with the Board of Trustees on Thursday evening and wanted to know what had become of a petition signed by numerous residents asking that street lights be installed on the above mentioned street and filed with the board on April 28th. At the time the petition was presented the board endorsed the proposition but laid the matter over until the treasurer had accumulated sufficient money to enable the city to pay the bills. Mr. Gervais reported that the residents along the line had subscribed $105 toward the expense. Engineer Lewis reported that the lights would cost $334, leaving therefore, $229 to be paid by the city. On motion of Gates Mr. Lewis was instructed to install the lights as soon as the subscribed money had been paid over to the proper authorities. on East Broadway; cost $2000. To W. C. Bullard, frame dwelling on Burton avenue; cost $1000. To Mrs. Henitz, frame dwelling on Emily street; cost $1500. To Mrs. H. Gade, frame addition to residence on Clementine street; cost $400. To Charles Schultz, frame addition on Sycamore tsreet; cost $50. To Mrs. Charles Fields, frame barn on Kroeger street; cost $200. To Mrs. Anna Neuhoff, frame shed on Emily street; cost $50. Judge Howard has been doing considerable business the past month, as he reports 20 cases in his court, and fines to the amount of $111 collected. Several parties have also received jail sentences. The reports of the other city officials follow: Treasurer's Report Bal. on hand Sept. 7...$3123.67 Collected during month ...4229.43 Total ...$7352.10 Paid by warrants ...3240.08 Balance in treasury ...$4112.02 Library Fund Balance on hand ...$383.69 Paid by warrants ...166.20 Balance on hand ...$217.49 Marshal's Report Collected for water ...$794.65 Collected for license ...537.20 Collected for light ...1505.61 Total ...$2837.46 Delinquents Collected For water ...$37.95 For license ...2.50 For light ...99.10 Penalties ...7.60 the treasurer had accumulated sufficient money to enable the city to pay the bills. Mr. Gervais reported that the residents along the line had subscribed $105 toward the expense. Engineer Lewis reported that the lights would cost $334, leaving therefore, $229 to be paid by the city. On motion of Gates Mr. Lewis was instructed to install the lights as soon as the subscribed money had been paid over to the proper authorities. The adoption of this motion reminded Trustee Stock that the people down on Walnut street had a petition of a similar character before the board, and had subscribed $196.60 toward paying the cost. The lights were badly needed on that thoroughfare, he said, as he frequently lost himself in going home late at night. Mr. Melrose supplemented Mr. Stock's argument with the statement that J. O. Royer had recently presented to the K. of P. lodge a ten-acre tract of land and a house, known as the old Evans place, situated on that road; also a carload of lumber. The house will be torn down and a neat club house, costing $3,500 will be erected, and the ten-acre tract will be converted into a parade and drill ground for the uniform rank, K. of P., therefore the travel over that street will be greatly augmented in the future. The petition of the Walnut street residents was granted, and Mr. Lewis instructed to install the lights. An application for a retail liquor dealers' license, signed by Fred Dyckman and Steve Cottle, was presented to the board. This petition was turned down at a previous meeting, but this time it passed by a narrow margin, the yeas being Becker, Stock and Nebelung, and the noes Rust and Gates. The business will be conducted in the new Mitchell building, on North Los Angeles street. Trustee Nebelung who had been appointed a committee of one to consultate the deal between the city and Joseph Backs and Mrs. Hattie Mitchell, relative to the proposed alley from Los Angeles to Lemon St., reported that each had deeded a nine-foot strip to the city, and the matter was closed. Engineer Lewis reported favorably upon the bid of the Baker Iron Works for furnishing a new boiler for the power house.

With the new factory to be built in Anaheim in time for next summer's season, this will make four sugar factories in Orange county. A site has already been secured for the new factory, which is to be constructed by the Holly Sugar company of Colorado. Officials of the company were at Huntington Beach a few days ago and concluded all necessary negotiations. The Colorado men who visited Huntington Beach were W. M. Wiley, president and general manager; S. W. Sinshelmer, constructing engineer, and Judge Rogers, attorney for the company. All are wealthy manufacturers. No stock in the new factory will be for sale. The signing up of acreage production contracts for next season's run has been completed by R. L. Forsyth. The Holly sugar company owns and operates two factories in Colorado, one factory at Holly being of 1000-ton capacity and another at Swink, a 600-ton factory. Arrangements were recently concluded whereby a new sugar factory is to be built at Anaheim. The preliminary work for this was done by H. S. Hadsell and the factory will be ready for the 1911 season of beets. PLAN TO SPEND A MILLION How Money from Red Cross Christmas Seals Would Provide Needed Hospitals What "A Million for Tuberculosis from Red Cross Seals" will do in the Engineer Lewis reported favorably upon the bid of the Baker Iron Works for furnishing a new boiler for the power house. The company had sent him satisfactory specifications, and he recommended the acceptance of the bid, which was the lowest of the four. Mr. Lewis also requested permission to dismantle a decaying shed at the old powerhouse and use the brick surrounding an old boiler as a foundation for the new one, which was granted him. He was authorized to tear down the old building as it is in a dangerous condition. City Attorney Melrose stated that he had not been able to get a satisfactory reply from G. H. L. Griest and his agent; Padon, who recently paid for some old transformers purchased from the city with a non-collectable note and a dishonored check. At his request he was granted permission to use his own discretion in collecting the money. Thirteen building permits, most of them for residences, were granted, as follows: To R. C. Heying, frame dwelling on West Center street; cost $2500. To Mrs. M. L. Armstrong, frame barn on Kroeger street; cost $200. To J. L. Skinner, frame dwelling on Chestnut street; cost $1500. To Annie H. Everhardy, frame dwelling on the county road; cost $1000. To B. Dauser, frame residence on Kroeger street; cost $1200. To Adolph Drager, frame dwelling on Claudina street; cost $1000. To Mrs. Bateman, frame residence PLAN TO SPEND A MILLION How Money from Red Cross Christmas Seals Would Provide Needed Hospitals What "A Million for Tuberculosis from Red Cross Seals" will do in the checking of consumption, is explained in a bulletin issued by the national association for the study and prevention of tuberculosis. Counting every available bed for consumptives in the United States, even those in almshouses, penal institutions, and hospitals for the insane, there are at the present time accommodations for hardly 30,000 tuberculosis patients. This is just about one bed for every ten indigent consumptives, and if all tuberculous persons in the country are counted, both rich and poor, hardly one for every twenty-five or thirty. If sufficient hospital accommodations are provided only for those who are too poor to pay the full price for their treatment, fully 275,000 more beds in special institutions for tuberculosis would be needed at once. The immense outlay necessary to provide and maintain so many beds in hospitals, makes it imperative, that such institutions be erected from public money, either municipal, county or state. In order to get appropriations for public hospitals for tuberculosis, agitation is necessary, and in order to create a campaign of agitation is demanded. But in order that an organization may carry on an effective campaign, funds are needed... These funds it is proposed to secure in as many communities as possible from the sale of Red Cross Seals. 5. A scout is to be polite to all women and children and invalids, cripple must not take any helpful or courteous action. 6.

A scout smiles der all circumstances an order he shows and readily not sort of way. Scout at hardships, nor swear wield punishment for swearing language is for each cold water to be fender's sleeve bolt. It was the punish the old scout, three hundred years. 9. A scout saves every penny into the bank, so money to keep his work, and thus no burden to others have money to give when they need it. The scout master of a troop. A three or more paces master may begin... AIM OF THE BOY SCOUTS Local Members Making Rapid Strides in Organization Scout Master Douglass is meeting with much success in the organization of a local troop of Boy Scouts of America. Following is a synopsis of the requirements and teachings for membership: The aim of the Boy Scouts is to supplement the various existing educational agencies, and to promote the ability in boys to do things for themselves and others. The method is summed up in the term Scoutcraft, and is a combination of observation, deduction and handiness—or the ability to do. Scoutcraft consists of first aid, life saving, tracking, signaling, cycling, nature study, seamanship and other instruction. This is accomplished in games and team play, and is pleasure not work, for the boy. The only equipment it needs is the out of doors, a group of boys, and a leader. Before he becomes a scout a boy must take the scout's oath, thus: On my honor I promise that I will do my best— (1) To do my duty to God and my country. (2) To help other people at all times. (3) To obey the scout law. When taking this oath the scout will stand, holding his right hand raised level with his shoulder, palm to the front, thumb resting on the nail of the little finger, and the other three fingers upright, pointing upward. This is the scout's salute and secret sign. He must have a deep interest in boys, be genuine in his own life, have the ability to lead and command the boy's respect and obedience and possess some knowledge of a boy's ways. He need not be an expert on scoutcraft. The good scout master will discover experts for the various activities. The Three Classes of Scouts Tenderfoot A boy on joining the Boy Scouts must pass a test in the following points before taking the oath: Know the scout's laws and signs, and salute. Know the composition of the national flag and the right way to fly it. Tie four out of the following knots: Reef, sheet bend, clove hitch, bowline, middleman's, fisherman's, sheepshank. He then takes the scout's oath, and is enrolled as a tenderfoot, and is entitled to wear the buttonhole badge. Second-class Scout Before being awarded the second-class scout's badge a tenderfoot must pass the following tests: 1. Have at least one month's service as a tenderfoot. 2. Elementary first aid and bandaging. 3. Signaling, elementary knowledge of semaphore or Morse alphabet. 4. Track half a mile in twenty-five minutes; or, if in a town, describe satisfactorily the contents of one shop window out of four, observed for one minute each. 5. Go a mile in twelve minutes at "scout's pace." 6. Lay and light a fire, using not more than two matches. 7. Cook a quarter of a pound of (1) To do my duty to God and my country. (2) To help other people at all times. (3) To obey the scout law. When taking this oath the scout will stand, holding his right hand raised level with his shoulder, palm to the front, thumb resting on the nail of the little finger, and the other three fingers upright, pointing upward. This is the scout's salute and secret sign: When the hand is raised shoulder high it is called "the half salute." When raised to the forehead it is the "full salute." The three fingers held up (like the three points of the scout's badge) remind him of his three promises in the scout's oath. The Scout Law Here are the nine articles of the scout law: 1. A scout's honor is to be trusted. If a scout were to break his honor by telling a lie, or by not carrying out an order exactly when trusted on his honor to do so, he may be directed to hand over his scout badge, and never to wear it again. He may also be directed to cease to be a scout. 2. A scout is loyal to his country, his officers, his parents, and his employers. He must stick to them through thick and thin against anyone who is their enemy or who even talks badly of them. 3. A scout's duty is to be useful and to help others. He must be prepared at any time to save life or to help injured persons. And he must try his best to do a good turn to somebody every day. 4. A scout is a friend to all, and a brother to every other scout, no matter to what social class the other belongs. A scout must never be a snob. A snob is one who looks down upon another because he is poorer, or who is poor and resents another because he is rich. A scout accepts the other man as he finds him, and makes the best of him. 5. A scout is courteous. That is, he is polite to all, but especially to women and children, and old people and invalids, cripples, etc. And he must not take any reward for being helpful or courteous. 6. A scout is a friend to animals. He should save them as far as possible from pain, and should not kill any animal unnecessarily. Killing an animal for food is allowable. 2. Elementary first aid and bandaging. 3. Signaling, elementary knowledge of semaphore or Morse alphabet. 4. Track half a mile in twenty-five minutes; or, if in a town, describe satisfactorily the contents of one shop window out of four, observed for one minute each. 5. Go a mile in twelve minutes at "scout's pace." 6. Lay and light a fire, using not more than two matches. 7. Cook a quarter of a pound of meat and two potatoes without cooking utensils other than the regulation billy. 8. Have at least twenty-five cents in a savings bank. 9. Know the sixteen principal points of the compass. First-class Scout Before being awarded a first-class scout's badge a scout must pass the following tests, in addition to the tests laid down for second-class scouts: 1. Swim fifty yards. (This may be omitted where the doctor certifies that bathing is dangerous to the boy's health, in which case he must run a mile in eight minutes, or perform some equivalent selected by the scout master.) 2. Must have fifty cents at least in the savings bank. 3. Signaling. Send and receive a message either in semaphore or Morse, sixteen letters per minute. 4. Go on foot, or row a boat, alone to a point seven miles away and return again; or if conveyed by any vehicle or animal, go to a distance of fifteen miles and back, and write a short report on it. It is preferable that he should take two days over it. 5. Describe or show the proper means for saving life in case of two of the following accidents (allotted by the examiners): Fire, drowning, runaway carriage, sewer gas, ice-breaking, or bandage an injured patient, or revive apparently drowned person. 6. Cook satisfactorily two out of the following dishes, as may be directed: Porridge, bacon, hunter's stew; or skin and cook a rabbit, or pluck and cook a bird. Also make a "damper" of half a pound of flour, or a "twist" baked on a thick stick. 7. Read a map correctly, and draw an intelligible rough sketch map. Point out a compass direction without the help of a compass. 8. Use the ax for felling or trimming light timber, or as alternative, produce an article of carpentry or ironwork made by him. San Bernardino is tenth, with $36,896,565; railroads, $12,999,332; total, $49,895,897. Humboldt county, which is placed in the eleventh class, returns an assessed valuation of $29,149,177.

Secretary Wilson of the United States Department of Agriculture takes a comprehensive view of all questions affecting the welfare of farmers and dairymen. In a conference with the agricultural committee of the Denver chamber of commerce, August 8, he expressed his regret at the fact that the beet sugar industry in Colorado is not used for its full value. His reference was to the neglect of the beet pulp, which he declares is the best butter producer in the world. "Here you are importing butter," he said, "when that is entirely unnecessary simply because your people are ignorant of the possibilities of the pulp. Why it has struck me so forcibly that my department will issue a pamphlet before long on that very subject." Most people hereabouts, however, are not ignorant of the facts they states but on the contrary are availing themselves of the opportunity which beet sugar factories afford them to get supplies of sugar beet pulp, not only to feed while the factory is running, but many have erected,and are erecting,silos to hold a sufficient supply for their needs during the remainder of the year until beet-slicing begins again. Those who have done this have proven to their own satisfaction that the best results in the handling of a dairy are obtained when they keep man as he finds him, and makes the best of him. 5. A scout is courteous. That is, he is polite to all, but especially to women and children, and old people and invalids, cripples, etc. And he must not take any reward for being helpful or courteous. 6. A scout is a friend to animals. He should save them as far as possible from pain, and should not kill any animal unnecessarily. Killing an animal for food is allowable. 7. A scout obeys orders of his parents, patrol leader, or scout master without question. Even if he gets an order he does not like he must do as soldiers and sailors do, he must carry it out all the same because it is his duty; and after he has done it he can come and state any reason against it; but he must carry out the order at once. That is discipliner. 8. A scout spiles and whistles under all circumstances. When he gets an order he should obey it cheerly and readily, not in a slow, hang-dog sort of way. Scouts never grumble at hardships, nor whine at each other, nor swear when put out. The punishment for swearing or using bad language is for each offense a mug of cold water to be poured down the offender's sleeve by the other scouts. It was the punishment invented by the old scout, Captain John Smith, three hundred years ago. 9. A scout is thrifty, that is, he saves every penny he can and puts it into the bank, so that he may have money to keep himself when out of work, and thus not make himself a burden to others; or that he may have money to give away to others when they need it. The Scout Master The scout master is the adult leader of a troop. A troop consists of three or more patrols. The scout master may begin with one patrol.

The scout idea has sprung up spontaneously all over America. In Canadian cities the Boy Scouts are in the thousands. In the United States, cities and towns are being swept by the idea. Gangs of boys are to be seen on every hand doing their best at Scoutcraft, "doing a good turn every day to someone," and getting fun out of it. Prominent business men and leading educators are behind the movement, and a popular organization that needs no equipment is filling a big gap in the recreational education of the boyhood of America. Great as has been the success of the Boy Scouts in England, America, with its vast stretches of territory, woods, and streams, furnishes a promise for a greater. Because the editor of the Anaheim Gazette expresses an opinion on the action of the Southern California editorial association in allowing the San Francisco exposition boosters to rope them in, the San Fernando Press takes that paper to task and says: "If the editor had been there he would be in a position to talk more intelligently." If booze makes a man talk more intelligently we fail to see why the street drunks when brought before the justice, talk so incoherently. Of course Potter's brand might be a more "intelligent" brand than the common five cent life size kind. The fact of the matter is the whole affair is so "intelligent" (nit), so raw and so pregnant with a disagreeable, disgusting odor that it knocks any good reasons for the fair that ever existed.
