SUMMARY OF THE LIBRARY WEEK WHAT IS BEING DONE IN THE REFERENCE WORK OF THAT INSTITUTION GENERAL RESUME OF ARTICLES WORTH WHILE IN CURRENT LITERATURE It is somewhat of a chore to get the inside workings of the reference department of a library but Anaheim is fortunately blessed with a corps of workers who assemble all the information at their fingers' ends in order to have it ready for those who wish to post up on any matter of current interest. Here is what is found in the monthly and weekly standard magazines contained in the reference department this week: Atlantic Magazine The leading articles this month are "Gettysburg" by Mary Johnston, and "State of the Nation" by a series of leading authorities. "Government of the Corporation" is treated extensively by Francis Lynde Stetson, and Evans Woollen gives an interesting article on "The Direct Primary Experiment." "The Significance of the Recall of Judicial Decisions" is handled by William Marshall Urban. Other subjects and their authors in The Atlantic are "Gardens and Gardens," by H. G. Dwight; "Sunset of the Confederation," by Marie Schaffer. Rome, Belgian, France, Hungary, Austria, Germany, China," "The Questions of the Day." "The Eucharistic Congress," "The President's Cabinet," "A Revolution Indeed," "Correspondence," "Activities of Latin Masonry," "Protection of Catholic Girls and Present Conditions in France." DEATH OF WALTER PARKER Well Known Political Leader Passes to His Long Rest Walter Parker, Southern Pacific tax agent and for many years a political leader in Southern California, died at the California hospital, Los Angeles, Sunday night of Bright's disease after a long illness. He was 48 years old. For several weeks he had been dangerously ill and his life had many times been despaired of but he rallied again and again when it appeared he could not live through the night, such was his stamina and determination to live. Parker for 15 years was one of the interesting political figures of Southern California and drew about him support which made him a power in the ranks of the republican party. He was formerly a resident of Orange county, where he began his brilliant political career. Three years ago Parker suffered a serious attack of heart trouble and was forced to give up business for several months. He went back to his old home in Georgetown, O., where he remained until he recovered. Upon his return to the city he announced his retirement from politics. Since then he had devoted himself to his duties as tax agent. Recently his failing health compelled him to give up business.

Review of Reviews Here are some of the topics treated in the Review of Reviews: "Why Tariff Boards?" "New Methodist Bishops," "Ohio's Proposed Constitution," "A Crisis in Cuba's Political Affairs," "The People and the Trusts," "What the West Expects from Panama," "The New Woman of the New East," "The British Postoffice," and "A Dramatic Museum." Everybody In this magazine is found the sixth installment of C. P. Connolly's "Big Business and the Bench," an interesting short article on "Motoring in the Alps" by Arthur Train, the usual short stories and a baseball story—a true one—by Edward Lyell Fox. Popular Mechanics This magazine shows a working model of the Panama locks, and life saving motor fire truck. It contains an exhaustive article on "An Unusual Bridge Moving Operation," and one on "Deflated Tire Alarm for Automobiles," also "Signal Disks Planned to Stop Joy Riding." An article also treats on the "First American Aero Show," and another on "The Largest Water Turbines." Current Literature Those of a literary turn of mind will find much to absorb their attention in the following series of articles in Current Literature: "Aristocratic Perils of Our Colleges," 'Fate of the Republican Party,' "Two-Fisted Flinn Who Beat Penrose," "Dissensions in the Socialist Party," and "Big Interests and the Magazines." The weekly publications are also a fund of information, according to data gathered together by the librarian. Here are some of the topics they treat on: The Survey "Conference of Mayors," "Massachusetts Legislature and the Liability Fight," "Massachusetts and Industrial Education," "Connecticut's First Welfare Exhibition," "Stock Companies to Stay in the Field," "Steerage Socialange county, where he began his brilliant political career. Three years ago Parker suffered a serious attack of heart trouble and was forced to give up business for several months. He went back to his old home in Georgetown, O., where he remained until he recovered. Upon his return to the city he announced his retirement from politics. Since then he had devoted himself to his duties as tax agent. Recently his failing health compelled him to give up business. Dr. C. W. Cook, his physician, states that Parker suffered from chronic Bright's disease, which seriously affected his heart. Parker was born in Georgetown, O., June 6, 1864. He was educated in the public schools of Georgetown, came to Los Angeles in 1877, bought the Santa Ana Blade a short time after, and published that paper for several years. About 17 years ago he entered the Southern Pacific railroad service as tax agent, which position he occupied at the time of death. He was married in 1899 to Miss Harriet Stephen of Georgetown. There are two sons, John and Frank, who live with the widow at No. 730 South Alvarado street. JUST A THOUGHT We went to a moving picture show once where we saw a film which portrayed the "injured" husband, showing how he had been deceived by his heartless wife who bestowed part of her affections upon another, to be set adrift upon the troubled sea of humanity. That picture made a hit with us. It brought to mind very forcibly the extreme selfishness of the sterner sex. It demonstarted that men do not grant their wives the same privileges they themselves exact. It has always been a problem with us how the average man could exact chastity of his wife, when his own life is so filled with little slips from the pathway married men should trod. Why is there a different standard of morality for the two sexes? Why shouldn't the wife be given the same privileges in flirting that are asked and taken by her husband, if he is an ordinary man? We do not say that all men are immoral, but we do believe that many men who look with horror upon any mistake made by their wives are the same fellows who will seek out the red light district whenever they visit the city.

Here are some of the topics they treat on: The Survey “Conference of Mayors,” “Massachusetts Legislature and the Liability Fight,” “Massachusetts and Industrial Education,” “Connecticut’s First Welfare Exhibition,” “Stock Companies to Stay in the Field,” “Steerage Social Work,” “Department Store Fire Risks” and “Bringing Producer to Consumer.” Scientific American “The Galveston Causeway,” a city made impregnable against the assaults of the sea. “George Westinghouse, Engineer and Inventor,” “The Winnipeg Motor Contest, a Motor Show for Farmers,” “The Heavens in July” and “Inventions, New and Interesting.” Harpers This is the campaign number of Harpers and treats extensively on political topics.

Here is a list of the subjects: “Theodore Roosevelt,” “The Question at Chicago,” “Who Owns the Republican Party” and “The Olympic Games of 1912.” National This magazine gives a Catholic review of the week and treats in the current issue on the following topics: “Taft and Sherman Nominated,” “Roosevelt Heads Third Party,” “Panama Canal,” “Beef Trust Surrenders,” “Port of New York Wins—Cuba, Why is there a different standard of morality for the two sexes? Why shouldn’t the wife be given the same privileges in flirting that are asked and taken by her husband, if he is an ordinary man? We do not say that all men are immoral, but we do believe that many men who look with horror upon any mistake made by their wives are the same fellows who will seek out the red light district whenever they visit the city. Men should be fair with their life partners. If they neglect their home ties to flirt a trifle with the frivolous things of life, they should not censure the neglected wife who momentarily, and in a fit of lonesomeness, seeks the company of another man to help pass away some of the time that should be spent with the absent hunband. Women are only human, although they are more discreet than their male partners. It is not often they stray away from the moral pathway, and very often when they do there is a reason, and when this condition arises and the husband is brought face to face with the situation, he ought to take an invoice of himself and see if there is a reason for her actions before he opens the door and directs his life partner to the cold, relentless world from whom it is his duty to protect her in just such cases as these. On Monday the 1st, the Wickersheim Implement Company sold 7-h.p Twin Cylinder Indian Motorcycles to P. J. Dodson of Anaheim and to Geo. W. Randall of Brea Canon and a 4-h.p Indian to Howard Teel of Norwalk, and on Tuesday they sold an I. H. C. auto wagon to the Perry Company, Buena Park. These are among the larger sales for the two days and show that this enterprising house is doing a fine business. N AND ABOUT THE CITY William Falkenstein spent Sunday with relatives and friends at Rivera. Harold Wilkins was down from Los Angeles Monday on a short business trip. Mrs. E. B. Merritt and Miss Eva Merritt are at Long Beach where they will remain during July and August. Mr. and Mrs. N. Hart have returned from a months' sojourn at San Diego and other points south. R. C. Wilkins and wife are enjoying the week by the briny at Bay City during the former's annual vacation. Frank Tausch, Geo. Terry and Alex Vaughn were at Vernon on the Fourth Attending the Wolgast-Rivers mingle. R. T. Davies, Orange county's prominent independent orange buyer, was in town Monday from his ranch near Fullerton. Charles Kuchel and wife have returned to their home in Fullerton after a short stay at Elsinore Hot Springs. Elton Goble returned Monday afternoon from a week's business and pleasure trip to San Francisco, Berkeley and Exeter. Mrs. G. A. Wilkins and daughter, Miss Glen Wilkins, of Los Angeles, are visiting this week with Mrs. McFarlane. Harry Whitaker was in Los Angeles Monday, buying a consignment of gents' furnishing goods for F. A. Yungbluth's emporium. Bob English has taken a position at N. Hart's cafe. He will be associated with Dee Jackson, who has been promoted to be manager of the place. Mrs. Charlotte Adams Corneille kept open house to members of the Assembly Club on the Fourth, and Ingram Bros., local agents of the Ford Motor cars, have sold their entire consignment of cars. There is such a demand for the Ford cars that the local agents do not expect to receive another consignment for some time. Manager Sandilauds of the local fruit association, is shipping out a fine grade of Valencia oranges to the Eastern market. The highest price so far obtained for this fruit this season is $5.50 per box, which is higher than that received last year. The association has shipped out to date 170 carloads of oranges, and has yet about 50 more to go forward. H. A. Dickel and family, and Dr. J. H. Bullard and family, drove to the Mojeska ranch on Sunday, intending to take photographs of scenes of interest for alph Mojeska, son of the noted tragidienne. They passed the outer gate, but an officious employee denied them admission inside the inner gate. They protested they were old friends of the actress, having known her since her first arrival in this city, and desired merely to take photographs at the request of the son of the distinguished couple. This was of no avail, however, with the gatekeeper, who bluntly replied "Anybody can tell that tory." They returned to Santiago Canyon, where they spent the day under the oaks. Alfred Seale, who was painfully injured by the overturning of the Colby car in last Thursday's races, in which Charley Batterson lost his life, is on the streets again, receiving congratulations from his friends over his recent narrow escape from death. "Pat" has a broken collar bone and many painful bruises, but is otherwise getting along nicely. His death was erroneously reported in a Los Angeles morning paper the morning after the LAST DANCE OF THE SEASON Assembly Will Close With a Full Dress Ball Friday What promises to be one of the delightful events of the season in Anaheim is to be a dance by the Assembly at the K. C. hall Friday evening, July 12. It will mark the closing of a pleasant season for this organization. The ball is to be a full dress affair and it is said some of the ladies are preparing beautiful gowns for the affair. Among the guests of the evening will be a number of young folks from Los Angeles. Moore's orchestra of Los Angeles will furnish the music. Decorations for the evening will be in national colors and refreshments will be served in cups resembling cannon firecrackers emblematic of the ceelbra-tion period at hand.

FOR SALE—My crop of apricots on the tree; 25 trees; 2½ miles south, Los Angeles St. W. M. Chambers. Paints Oils Miss Glen Wilkins, of Los Angeles, are visiting this week with Mrs. McVarlane. Harry Whitaker was in Los Angeles Monday, buying a consignment of gents' furnishing goods for F. A. Yungbluth's emporium. Bob English has taken a position at N. Hart's cafe. He will be associated with Dee Jackson, who has been promoted to be manager of the place. Mrs. Charlotte Adams Corneille kept open house to members of the Assembly Club on the Fourth, and many partook of her hospitality. Miss Lillian Balfour, recently operated on for appendicitis at the Anaheim sanatarium, was this week moved to her home and will shortly be fully recovered. Stroup-Barnes Company has just received a large consignment of furniture of all kinds, and the managers are put to it to find room for it all. Their store is now one of the best stocked furniture stores in the county. Rev. F. W. Mitchell of the First Presbyterian church of this city, goes to Tustin this (Thursday) evening to assist in the installation of Rev. Blew on the Presbyterian church at that point. Hans Storm is helping Gene Adams on his electrical work during the summer vacation. Hans is interested in everything eeltric and has installed a wireless telegraph station at his home on West Broadway. The Woman's Missionary Society of the Presbyterian church meets this (Thursday) afternoon at the home of Mrs. Raymond, 114 Hedwig street, at 30. Every one interested will be welcomed. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. McLaughlin entertained a number of friends at dinner on Thursday evening in honor of the glorious Fourth. Following a countiful repast the guests were entertained by a very fine display of fireworks. Theodore Roberts, the jeweler, has painted the floor of his store and arranged the interior attractively and made the shop look like new. He has must purchased a large safe to accommodate his increasing stock of goods and now has the smaller one for sale. Mr. and Mrs. W. I. Carver, Mr. and Mrs. L. C. Blake and Miss Lois Blake formed an automobile party that took on the sights at Long Beach Sunday. Miss Blake is becoming an expert driver with her new car and piloted the party in first-class shape. Mrs. Carver remained at Long Beach for a few days, visiting with her brother, John Medbury and family. Alfred Seale, who was painfully injured by the overturning of the Colby car in last Thursday's races, in which Charley Batterson lost his life, is on the streets again, receiving congratulations from his friends over his recent narrow escape from death. "Pat" has a broken collar bone and many painful bruises, but is otherwise getting along nicely. His death was erroneously reported in a Los Angeles morning paper the morning after the accident. This was the second time "Pat" had such distinction, the former occasion being during the San Francisco car strikes of some years ago when he was reported shot and killed. Pat declares both these stores were untrue and declares he will be in the land of the living for some years yet. The Schacht car No. 11, owned by H. F. H. Schneider and entered in the automobile races at Anaheim on the Fourth of July made an unusually fine showing. When the Schacht car came up to the Colby car which had turned turtle, the Schacht driver stopped to assist the Colby crew and laid one of the men aside so he would not be mangled, as he lay in the direct path of the racers. In stopping so suddenly the Schacht driver put his brakes out of commission, and from then on he had no control of the car on turns at racing speed. After having lost considerable time in stopping at the Colby wreck it was out of the question to win in so short a race as 18 miles. The Chinese have obtained water through the means of artesian wells for over a thousand years. One of the most famous wells in existence is that of Grenelle in the outskirts of Paris, where the water is brought from a depth of 1798 feet. It yields 516½ gallons of water a minute. A well in Pesth was sunk to the depth of 3100 feet in the 'seventies. First Trooper Imperial Yeomanry (discussing a new officer)—Swears a bit, don't 'e, sometimes? Second Trooper—E's a masterpiece, 'e is; just opens 'is mouth and lets it say wot it likes. Mr. Needmore—If you refuse me my life will be filled with bitterness and gall. The Widow Bullion—I don't know about the bitterness, but you're there with the gall, all right. A Clean Sweep For Studebaker Cars Studebaker E-M-F and Flanders Cars win every single race of the Fourth of July meet held at Anaheim, including both Road and Straightaway events. No such record ever made by one make of car and conclusively proves that for Speed, Durability and especially Reliability STUDEBAKER CARS are unequalled regardless of PRICE. Buy a STUDEBAKER CAR and take absolutely no chances. No better Automobiles built, and few as good. P.J. Weisel & Co.
