WORDS OF WELCOME TO JOY RIDERS REFRAIN RINGS FROM OLIVE THROUGH COUNTY TO THE SEA Merchants Presented With Souvenir Bags of Flour at Foothill Town and Made Happy at Initial Stopping Place—Orange and Santa Ana Serve Refreshments and Cigars—Banquet at Huntington Beach—Glad Hand Everywhere—Crowds Assemble at Smeltzer, Westminster Wintersburg and Garden Grove A day of ideal weather, a high fog overhead and a light seabreeze blowing from the coast marked the triumphal entry of Anaheim merchants into Orange county towns upon their first get-acquainted trip on Wednesday of last week. As already mentioned in these columns the joy ride was characterized by an ovation from start to finish. Too much praise cannot be given Postmaster Duckworth who planned the trip, and was in personal charge of the party from the time of its departure to the hour of return in the evening. Features of the pilgrimage were the playing of Crowther's cadet band and the singing of the Concordia. Of the former there were 22 pieces, while the latter numbered 25. A large crowd sent the joy riders off with a cheer shortly after 9 o'clock. Scenes upon the principal streets were lively to a degree, and hundreds lined the sidewalks to see the association off. the cavalcade is twenty minutes late in departing. The next stop is at Wintersburg, where W. L. Kruesch delivers an address. The population of the village is out, and school children line the street. Smeltzer is next, and here a large crowd greets the visitors. School children fill the streets. The band plays, as at other points. Attorney Spencer delivers an address. Westminster is reached at 4 o'clock, and here an enthusiastic welcome awaits the party. The hall is filled with several hundred people. A formal welcome is extended the party. P. H. Kriok makes the talk. The Concordia sings, and the cadet band plays. Garden Grove is reached at 5 o'clock. Here another large crowd gathers in the town's center. Allan Knapp welcomes the party, from a stand erected in the intersection of the principal streets. Attorney Ames and Postmaster Duckworth respond. The party reaches home at 6 o'clock, and moves up Center street three cars abreast, with Impressario Duckworth leading the line, bowing his acknowledgements to hundreds of people. So ends a great day, and one full of enjoyment from start to finish. NOTES OF THE TRIP "Trade at Home," was the slogan of the party at Olive, when Secretary Blake of the Olive mill presented them with miniature bags of flour.

NOTES OF THE TRIP "Trade at Home," was the slogan of the party at Olive, when Secretary Blake of the Olive mill presented them with miniature bags of flour. Mr. Blake said Olive solicited Anaheim's support, and assured the visitors that Olive was ready to reciprocate at every turn. Herman Stern's response was one of the happy events of the trip. He said he needed no introduction to an Olive audience, for he had been doing business with them for many years. The little children growing up about us, he said, were new to him, but he hoped to get acquainted with them when they came to town. He said a cordial welcome awaited Olive citizens when they came to Anaheim, and urged them to make themselves at home while in town. At Orange Mr. Dittmer said Anaheim was making wonderful progress. The only time it fell short was when the census man came around. He forgot to state that Orange contains nearly half again as much territorial area as Anaheim. J. F. Ahlborn's response was well-timed and to the point. He had formerly resided at Orange, and was glad to note its evidences of prosperity. Attorney Forgy said at Santa Ana the only regret felt was that the visitors could not stay longer. He assured them the town was theirs, to take whatever they saw, and if they did not see what they wanted to ask for it, and it would be procured for them. Charles Eygabroad's response was one of the best heard on the trip. He said on coming to the coast some years ago he met a man on the train who assured him Orange county was the beauty spot of California, and that it had better men and more lovely women than any section of—South Dakota. Mayor Manning of Huntington Beach welcomed the party, and said his town hoped to pay Anaheim a visit in force in the near future. Judge Howard made one of the neatest addresses on the trip, saying a cordial welcome awaited the beach people on their advent here. W. L. Kruescher told Wintersburg that a welcome awaited them in Anaheim. Attorney Spencer spoke well at Smeltzer, asking the people to make themselves at home when in finish. Touring the county the visitors were pleased program bert and certainly the pton Beach were glad heartily, sincerely served to one hundred o'clock at the Hungry spacious and beautiful the hungry booster ing sixty Anaheim at the new Fellow avenue, which was ed for the occasion committee from the trade met the visit them every attention.

On the way to Santa Ana, the cavalcade is met on North Main street by autos carrying members of the merchants and manufacturers association, headed by Nate Ulm, Horatio Forgy, Wiley Harris and other county-seat braves. A cheer goes up, and Postmaster Duckworth, in the forward car, tunes up his bazoo which awakens the echoes distant as the Santiago hills. A ride about town follows, around the courthouse, the park and other points of interest, and winding up at the new armory, a spacious structure recently erected at a cost of $12,000. Attorney Forgy delivers the address of welcome. Charles Eygabroad delivers the response. Cigars and punch are passed around. The cadet band plays well. Out of Santa Ana to the west the line of march is taken up, past Bolsa, to Huntington Beach, where the party arrives promptly on schedule time, 1 o'clock. The streets are lined with beach people to welcome the visitors. School children by hundreds cheer them. Bill Newland crowds himself through the throng extending the glad hand. The party goes to the Inn. where luncheon is served. The crowd is rather large for the Inn's accommodations, but all are fed, and well fed, when handshaking again begins. In the lobby the Concordia sings. The cadet band plays a spirited march: At 2 o'clock the entire population gathers at the auditorium. Mayor Manning extends welcome. Judge Howard makes reply. Such is the hospitality of Editor Hart and the good beach people that Mayor Manning of Huntington Beach welcomed the party, and said his town hoped to pay Anaheim a visit in force in the near future. Judge Howard made one of the neatest addresses on the trip, saying a cordial welcome awaited the beach people on their advent here. W. L. Kruescher told Wintersburg that a welcome awaited them in Anaheim. Attorney Spencer spoke well at Smeltzer, asking the people to make themselves at home when they came to Anaheim. Allan Knapp was particularly felicitous in his address of welcome. He said Garden Grove would soon have a new postoffice. It desired a route of rural free delivery, and asked Anaheim to help procure it. In introducing Attorney Ames, he elicited loud laughter as he presented the latter with a cluster of lilies, which he said was emblematic of the purity everywhere evident at Garden Grove. More laughter followed his reference to the time when his children and those of Mr. Ames would come upon the scene and help make the country greater and grander than today. Attorney Ames made a happy response, saying Mayor Rust desired him to say Garden Grove needed no key to Anaheim, for everything here was open to them. John W. Duckworth said that sixteen years ago he settled in Garden Grove. A village then, it had grown to be a populous business center. Good feeling prevailed throughout the trip, and on all sides were heard praises for this city. Too much praise cannot be given Prof. Crowther and his cadet band, as well as the Concordia singers, for music and singing furnished on the trip. Postmaster Duckworth personally conducted the party from start to ANAHEIM GAZETTE finish, and all praise is due him for the time and energy spent upon making the joyride a success. The party drove over three bridges, the Olive, East Chapman street, and Fifth-street bridges. The former being in the northern part of the county was given the overlook by the highway commission. The two latter, lying at the outskirts of Santa Ana, were included in the bond fund. AT HUNTINGTON BEACH Editor Hart Gives Boosters Kindly Greeting Editor Hart of the Huntington Beach News was foremost in welcoming the booster brigade to his city. With him were Mayor Manning, Mr. Reed, William Newland and many others, who greeted the invaders with kindly words of welcome. In his paper Mr. Hart refers to the visit in the following words: The city of Huntington Beach was "invaded" on Wednesday afternoon by an army of Anaheim boosters, representing the board of trade of that city, and surrendered at discretion. Their splendid brass band, their sweet singers, their representative business and professional men, their orators and their editors found here a cordial welcome from their fellow-citizens of Orange county, their neighbors and friends. Touring the county in automobiles the visitors were carrying out their pleasant program by their visit here, and certainly the people of Huntington Beach were glad to see them — heartily, sincerely glad. Lunch was served to one hundred of them at 1 o'clock at the Huntington Inn, whose spacious and beautiful dining-room INVESTORS BID FOR THE MUNICIPAL BONDS TRUSTEES CONSIDER SEALED PROPOSALS AT SPECIAL MEETING American Savings Bank of Los Angeles Secures the Power House Bonds, and J. H. Adams & Co. Highest Bidder for the Sewer Bonds but Action Held Up Until Tonight — Southern Pacific Railway Granted Permission to Copy Our Concrete Water Tank Consideration of sealed bids for the purchase of the $98,500 electric light and sewer bonds being floated by the city of Anaheim, was the object of the special meeting held by the city trustees last Thursday evening. Only two bids were on file with City Clerk Merritt for the sewer bonds and two for the municipal improvement bonds, and considering the guilt-edged security and the high rate of interest the premiums offered were remarkably low. The bids for the $90,000 sewer bonds were: J. H. Adams & Co., $507.00. Wm. R. Staats Co., $463.50. For the $8500 proposed additions and improvements at the power-house American Savings Bank, $53.00. J. H. Adams & Co., $25.00. Representatives of these three firms were present at the meeting and each made a short talk to the board. The bid of J. W. Phelps, cashier of the American Savings bank, for the $8500 municipal improvement bonds, was accepted and the five hundred dollar certified check accompanying BUENA PARK BELLE WEDS Ontario Lochinvar Comes Hither for Fair Bride At the home of Mr. and Mrs. E. E. Thurman at Buena Park on April 5, 1911, their daughter, Miss Eula Thurman, was united in marriage to Chas. R. Bealey of Ontario, Rev. Perry of Ontario officiating. None but the immediate friends and relatives of the bride and groom were present, all of whom were pleasantly entertained and all things went merry as a marriage bell. The home of the bride was beautifully decorated in green with cala lilies and flowers of purple intertwined. The happy couple left immediately for the beach resorts, where they will spend the first few days of their wedded life. After May 1st they will be at home to their many friends at Pomona, where they expect to reside. HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Huntington Beach Wins Debate—Orange County Track Meet in this City Next Saturday The extemporaneous debate for the possession of the Davis silver cup was held in the high school auditorium on Friday evening between Anaheim and Huntington Beach high schools, and resulted in a victory for the latter. Anaheim upheld the negative and the beach city the affirmative of the question, Resolved, that the commission form of government should be generally adopted in the American cities. Anaheim was represented by Miss Irene Mills and Walter Spaeth and Huntington Beach by Misses Bertha Pann and Vida Damron. The judges were Mr. Thomas of Santa Ana, Mr. Nealley of Tustin and their editors found here a cordial welcome from their fellow-citizens of Orange county, their neighbors and friends. Touring the county in automobiles the visitors were carrying out their pleasant program by their visit here, and certainly the people of Huntington Beach were glad to see them — heartily, sincerely glad. Lunch was served to one hundred of them at 1 o'clock at the Huntington Inn, whose spacious and beautiful dining-room presented an attractive appearance to the hungry boosters and the remaining sixty Anaheimers were cared for at the new Fellows Cafe on Walnut avenue, which was tastefully arranged for the occasion. A reception committee from the local board of trade met the visitors and tendered them every attention. After lunch, and musical selections by the Anaheim cadet band and Concordia singing club of that city, a large crowd assembled at the Tent City auditorium where Mayor Ed. Manning welcomed the visitors in a happily worded address, to which response was made by Judge J. S. Howard of Anaheim, in a few eloquent and cordial remarks in which he praised the city of Huntington Beach and congratulated it upon its evident appearance of prosperity. Selections by the Anaheim cadet band, under the leadership of Prof. Crowther, added much to the enjoyment of the brief program. The vistors left shortly after three o'clock, in their forty automobiles, for Smeltzer, Wintersburg, Westminster and Garden Grove, whence they will go home. In the morning they visited Olive, Orange and Santa Ana. VACCINATION OPTIONAL Lack of Certificate Will Not Keep Children Out of Schools It is no longer possible for children not having certificates of vaccination to be excluded from school. That is the conclusion reached by the district attorney's office in view of the new law passed recently by the state legislature. The question of whether or not a child may be excluded from schools because of not having a certificate of vaccination was brought to the attention of the district attorney's office in Los Angeles through a complaint made by G. B. West that her child had been refused the right to attend the Fifty-fourth street school because the child had not been vaccinated. The civil engineer in command of the construction work of the Southern Pacific railroad phoned to Engineer Steward during the session of the board and requested permission to copy the plans and specifications of Anaheim's concrete water tank. Architect Leonhardt of Los Angeles to whom he originally applied, had referred him to the city of Anaheim as he was not in authority to give up the information. On motion of Gates the railroad company was granted permission to copy the charts and plans of the tank. A map of the new city of Stanton, showing the eccentric curves, twists and angles, and the idiocycracies of the boundary lines of that new but enterprising Orange county corporation, was presented to the board, but he took his walnuts to the association house in 1909, but was told that he would have to wait until 100 walnuts had been cracked as a test to see in what class the nuts belonged. Paine said he had no time to wait, they could take the nuts and crack them when they got ready. The association refused and Paine drove away. Under the by-laws he was fined $100 for non-delivery of the crop. He was fined another $100 in 1910, the records showing no withdrawal from the association. WALNUT GROWER FINED Justice Cox of Santa Ana has under consideration the evidence in the suit brought by the Santa Ana valley walnut growers association against R. Paine. The association sued to collect $200 in fines because Paine did not deliver his walnuts to the association in 1909 and 1910. Paine testified that he took his walnuts to the association house in 1909, but was told that he would have to wait until 100 walnuts had been cracked as a test to see in what class the nuts belonged. Paine said he had no time to wait, they could take the nuts and crack them when they got ready. The association refused and Paine drove away. Under the by-laws he was fined $100 for non-delivery of the crop. He was fined another $100 in 1910, the records showing no withdrawal from the association. HOWARD GATES A WINNER That is the conclusion reached by the district attorney's office in view of the new law passed recently by the state legislature. The question of whether or not a child may be excluded from schools because of not having a certificate of vaccination was brought to the attention of the district attorney's office in Los Angeles through a complaint made by G. B. West that her child had been refused the right to attend the Fifty-fourth street school because the child had not been vaccinated. The new law passed by the state legislature provides that every child attending school must have either a certificate of vaccination signed by a physician or a signed statement of his parent or guardian to the effect that the latter is conscientiously opposed to vaccination. A child with the latter paper may attend school except during the time of an epidemic, when he will be refused admittance. It is provided however that in case of epidemics the state board of health shall have the power to district the schools. All the schools except those in the district in which the epidemic is said to exist, shall be open to children without certificates of vaccination. "This seems to me to be a common sense solution of the problem," said T. J. Phillips, assistant county superintendent of schools of Los Angeles. "Those children who live in healthful communities do not, if their parents object, have to have certificates of vaccination to attend school, and this, of course, will please many parents. Another thing about this new bill that I like is the fact that it puts the matter of vaccination where it belongs—up to the state board of health. That body is required to keep records of all children who have certificates of vaccination and of all those who have not." DISLOCATED SHOULDER BONE Mrs. Brewitt Suffers Painful Accident While Aboard Cars Mrs. Gussie Brewitt of Oakland, who visited here a fortnight since Mrs. Holcomb, suffered a dislocation of the shoulder bone while attempting to alight from the cars at the Santa Fe depot some days ago. She boarded the train for San Diego, intending to take a steamer for the north from that port. She left the observation car in order to procure a package of letters from her daughter, Miss Lucille Brewitt, and was thrown against the door with such violence that she was injured as stated. She continued on her way to San Diego, from which point she telephoned her daughter of the accident. The latter took the next train for the south, and remained with her mother until she departed on the steamer the following day. She accompanied her as far as San Pedro, whence she came on to this city. Mrs. Brewitt reached her home at Oakland in safety, and is recovering from the accident, which, though very painful, threatens no serious consequences. HOWARD GATES A WINNER Howard Gates has received information from Washington to effect that he passed the mail carrier's examination held in this city recently, with a grade of 89 per cent, making him rank third among seventeen contestants. Nine of the contestants were successful in passing the examination, and three carriers will be selected from those making the highest grade. Mr. Gates has already taken the position of dispatcher in the office, and will retain this place, he having been given the opportunity so to do by Postmaster Duckworth. The fish and game commission issues the following statement on the condition of the trout law at this date: The new fish law signed by the governor makes it lawful to take any and all kinds of trout from April 1 to November 1. The limit on steelhead is fifty fish during any one calendar day; the limit on other trout is fifty fish, or ten pounds and one fish, on any one calendar day. There is no limit as to size. This law as to the open season applies only to District No. 6, which includes Santa Barbara, Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange, San Diego, Imperial, Riverside, San Bernardino and Inyo counties. The changes in the game laws have not yet taken effect. THURSDAY, April 13 SUPPOSE HE'S NO BETTER DOCTOR YOU GOT SICK IT WOULD BE WELL TO HAVE YOUR MONEY IN THE BANK Handy too.
