ANNUAL MEETING OF EBELL SOCIETY MRS. CORA E. LEWIS OF LOS ANGELES DELIVERS AN ADDRESS ON WORK OF SOCIETY BAZAAR TO BE GIVEN NEXT WEEK FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE CLUB HOUSE The third annual meeting of the Anaheim Ebell Society was held on Saturday afternoon, November 2, at the Odd Fellows' hall. Mrs. Cora E. Lewis, of Los Angeles, gave a very able and interesting talk on the work of the Civic Association of that city. "This organization," said Mrs. Lewis, "is largely a suggestive one. It is true that much of the civic work is done by us directly but since the field is so great we feel our urgent duty to suggest to the people what should be done, knowing that an evil exists is the first step toward eradicating it. Then, too, it is as necessary for us to know what not to do as it is for us to know what to do. The members of the association work not for the glory that rightly connects itself with work of this nature; but for the self satisfaction that comes with doing that which we know is for the good of the community. The expenses of the organization are paid by the individual members as they incur them and any money that is needed to carry out a plan is tactfully obtained from such men and companies whom we know are willing and who are interested in the promulgation of the work. "As soon as people gather together least so high as to be prohibitive to some bill board companies who would not be willing to pay the high rental. Again if the owners receive an income they should be taxed proportionately on improved property. The demoralizing effect has been barred in Los Angeles as advertisements depicting fights, robberies, train wrecks, etc., are not allowed. The right place for ad- us to know what not to do as it is for us to know what to do. The members of the association work not for the glory that rightly connects itself with work of this nature; but for the self satisfaction that comes with doing that which we know is for the good of the community. The expenses of the organization are paid by the individual members as they incur them and any money that is needed to carry out a plan is tactfully obtained from such men and companies whom we know are willing and who are interested in the promulgation of the work. "As soon as people gather together to live in a community, problems arise that are not met with when one lives alone, no civic questions present themselves to the man who lives alone on the desert, whose garbage, refuse and waste are disposed of in a very simple manner. It is not until five, six, or more tents are propped near his that these matters need his attention. If we were all constituted to do the right thing, at the right time, in the right manner, the disposal of this waste would still be an easy matter, but since we are not, a problem is presented. So as our community grows, our problems grow. We can no longer build an addition to our homes, nor arrange the plumbing just as we would have it, but must conform to certain restrictions for the good of all concerned. It is compulsory that we keep our yards clean, not for ourselves, but for those living nearest us. The diseases of the slums will come to us if we do not go to them. The man working on the street may have his home in the contaminated district and our children may come in direct contact with this man's clothing or perhaps even the man himself. Every member of the community is dependent on every other member, consequently there must be no shirkers who cause double the work, hence double the expense, which extra money might be used for the furtherance of some other plan. "The association is divided into departments each of which is under the direction of an able chairman. Among the things the association has been actively interested in are the children's hospital, juvenile courts, penny lunch, bill boards, etc. "In several schools of the city it was found upon investigation that children were not well fed and came to school hungry. A child with a hungry stomach and a weak body is in no fit condition to learn. How were these children to be fed? After a discussion of many plans the 'penny lunch' was finally decided upon according to which every child pays a penny for his noonday meal. The lunch consists of some good, wholesome food usually a bowl of soup and plain bread with sometimes an orange, candy, or some delicacy donated from time to time. It is a sad fact that some of the children even here in Southern California had never eaten an orange. On one occasion a little urchin drank five bowls of soup. Sometimes a child has not even enough money to pay for the lunch so in order to make him feel that he is not a pauper, he is asked to do such work as sweep the walk which makes him feel that he has earned his meal and at the same time gives him a lesson in good citizenship. This of course least so high as to be prohibitive to some bill board companies who would not be willing to pay the high rental. Again if the owners receive an income they should be taxed proportionately on improved property. The demoralizing effect has been barred in Los Angeles as advertisements depicting fights, robberies, train wrecks, etc., are not allowed. The right place for advertising is in the newspaper. "Another department is interested in the improvement of roads. California is a large state, has large problems, extensive work to do but fortunately the people of California are large enough to do it. Up to the present time about 30 miles of road are under the supervision of the department. Trees have been planted and the general improvement of the roads looked after. "These are among the few things that the association is deeply interested in and along the lines of which the members are working." Mrs. Lewis extended to the members of the Ebell a pressing invitation to be present at any meeting of the association which meets at 10 o'clock in the morning on the first Tuesday of every month on the third floor in the Chamber of Commerce building. Los Angeles. A spirited discussion on free text books followed the closing of Mrs. Lewis's talk. Miss Marie Finney gave a well rendered musical selection at the piano. The corresponding secretary, Miss E. Kate Rea, read an appeal to the women of California to vote against the amendment for the consolidation of cities, and the racing measure. Mrs. Gates gave a report of the reciprocity day at Santa Ana and made an announcement concerning the organizing of a county federation of women's clubs. It was voted that the American Magazine be subscribed for and given to the library. Mrs. F. Angell, chairman of the bazaar committee, predicts a very successful affair on the 14th, 15th and 16th of this month. There will be a supper on all of these evenings, namely, chicken, Spanish, and New England. Liberal donations have been made and in the many booths, art, apron, candy, embroidery, there will be something for everybody. Besides these there will be the country store, fishpond, fortune telling tent, baby show and many other attractions. An entertainment has been planned for every evening. The co-operation and patronage of the community is solicited. ADVERTISED LETTERS Luciano Rodrigues, A. E. Classen, E. B. Ingalls (2), Joe Aguleria, Earl D. Grey, Paul Velasques, J. W.

As was the case in this city, the cost of the plant far exceeded the architect's figures and unless bonds for the required amount had been voted, the building would have been left unfinished. Some months ago the Fullerton district voted $130,000 for construction of the new group of High School buildings. This amount, together with $34,000 of insurance money from the old building, has been spent and $50,000 is required to complete the building. This brings the total cost of the plant to $214,000.

MARTENET "The Stove House" STATE LEADS IN PETROLEUM PRODUCT CALIFORNIA'S OUTPUT GREATER THAN THAT OF ANY OTHER STATE IN THE UNION VOLUME OF MINERAL PRODUCTION OF COUNTRY SHOWS GREAT INCREASE The great volume of the mineral production of the United States its tremendous increase during the last few years, and the wide distribution of the important minerals were indicated in a recent address by George Otis Smith, director of the United States Geological Survey. The twelve most important mineral products in the United States, in the order of value of annual output, were stated by Mr. Smith to be coal, iron, clay products, copper, petroleum, gold, stone, natural gas, cement, lead, silver, and zinc. "For certain of these minerals," he said "the Geological Survey presents estimates of the supply from which the nation's needs are to be met. For others, especially clay products and cement, the question of the supply of raw material from which they are produced is of little moment compared with that of the availability of the fuels necessary for the processes of manufacture. "Of nearly equal importance with the factor of abundance of these mineral resources is that of distribution. In the first place, the widespread distribution of the raw material makes possible an industrial nation in which every state has some share in the mineral production. Only four states had a mineral output last year valued at Thursday, November 7 KENSTEIN'S NOV. 9TH TO 21ST =Groceries=Out SALE GROCERY are going to discontinue our grocery departoccupied by our Dry Goods lines have resent quarters.

Again, no state or section appears to have a monopoly of the mineral industry. While Pennsylvania, with its total mineral product more than one-fourth that of the whole country, leads in coal, cement, and stone by large margins, another state, Minnesota, leads in iron ore; another, Arizona, in copper; another, Ohio, in clay products; California in petroleum; California in gold; Missouri in both lead and zinc; and Nevada in silver. Furthermore, the centers of production are ever shifting. "For instance, up to 1894 Pennsylvania was the leading state in the production of petroleum. In 1895 it was succeeded by Ohio. Ohio gave way to California in 1903. California gave way to Oklahoma in 1907 and resumed premiership in 1909, retaining it since that time. Both Illinois and Oklahoma exceeded the production of any of the Eastern states in 1907 and have continued to do so. For many years up to 1906 Montana was the principal producer of copper. In 1907 it gave way to Arizona, and in 1909 Arizona gave place to Montana. In 1910 and 1911 Arizona again held first place. In 1906 Idaho was the chief producer of lead. It gave way to Missouri in 1907, and the latter state now contributes 45 per cent of the country's total. Nevada, in the glory days the Comstock lode, from 1873 to 1878, was the greatest silver producer in the world. When the Comstock declined, in the latter part of the last century, Nevada gave way as a silver producer, first to Colorado, and then to Montana, but became again the principal producer of silver in 1910. Ten years ago Colorado, the leading gold-producing state, produced over 60 per cent more than California, then second in rank. California's proportion has been steadily increasing for ten years, and in 1911 the largest production of gold was from that state." Summer Boarder—Don't you ever come to see the sights of a city?
