FAVOR FORMING PROTECTION DISTRICT (Continued from page 1) Stanton had been withdrawn, and the same would be held at the Rochester hotel in Orange Wednesday night, January 29. Several of the members present signified their intention of going and a party was made up numbering a dozen. Eygabroad reported that Glenn Martin had been in conference with him Monday afternoon with reference to a proposed aerial tour of Southern California, in which he proposed to stop at all the principal cities on his route and show the workings of his machine. It was announced that the cost of the exhibition would be $300 and the aviator would remain in the city about half an hour. The matter was referred to the Merchants' Association for action. A letter from Santa Fe officials was read, stating that the request from the board for a cheap round-trip rate from Los Angeles to this city on certain days of the week did not meet with the approval of the general passenger agent and the road did not see its way clear to grant the rate at present, adding that there is at present a round-trip rate of $1.50 and stating that this was a very material reduction, and that no further reduced rate could be made. The advertising committee reported that the booklets issued several months ago by the board of trade were almost used up and more were needed. ADELHEID BATHHOUSE REOPENS Prof. Burgfeld Leases South Los Angeles Street Establishment Prof. Frank Burgfeld, who was formerly proprietor of the Adelheid bath house and was later connected with the hydrotherapy department at the Anaheim sanitarium, has again leased the bath house on South Los Angeles street and fitted up the premises in even better shape than before. The establishment is now second to none in sanitary and general equipment for all kinds of baths—Turkish, steam, electric, bake oven, tub and shower baths. The professor is a hydrotherapist and chiropodist of a wide reputation and practices all branches of chiropody and massage. He gives bath for rheumatism, poor blood circulation, obesity, skin diseases and foot troubles. There are ladies’ and gentlemen’s departments and all are assured of the most courteous treatment. Many people have been treated in the past two years by Prof. Burgfeld and many of his friends will be glad to learn that he is going to remain in the city and ready to meet them at the old stand. MAN KILLED BY TRAIN While insensible from drinking alcohol, a man was run over by a Santa Fe train a half mile east of the Santa Ana River Sunday night. The man's mangled body was picked up along the track Monday morning. The man was known to several men about Orange as Charlie. He and another man named Sawyer camped together in the Santa Ana River bed. They have been hanging about for several weeks. They made baskets, which they peddled about from door to door. Once in awhile they worked for a few hours at a time in yards around Orange. Los Angeles to this city on certain days of the week did not meet with the approval of the general passenger agent and the road did not see its way clear to grant the rate at present, adding that there is at present a round-trip rate of $1.50 and stating that this was a very material reduction, and that no further reduced rate could be made. The advertising committee reported that the booklets issued several months ago by the board of trade were almost used up and more were needed. The matter was referred to the advertising committee, which will investigate the proposition and see if money can be secured for the purpose of issuing a new booklet. It was announced that the city trustees have the power to levy a tax for the purpose of advertising the city, and this body will probably be asked to take this means of raising money for the use of the board of trade next year. It was decided to have the evening luncheons on alternate meeting nights and the place of the next meeting will be made known later. The following chairmen of committees for the ensuing year were appointed as follows: Trade and Commerce—F. C. Krause. Manufacturing—F. N. Gibbs. Transportation—A. W. Wood. Entertainment and Invitation—B. V. Beebe. Membership—J. F. Ahlborn. Advertising and Finance—J. W. Duckworth. Public Improvements—H. M. Adams. Each chairman will select two men to help him in his work. Duckworth announced that he would select H. M. Adams and W. P. Quarton to act on his committee. Upon motion the meeting adjourned. CHRISTIAN ENDEAVOR RALLY TO BE HELD Third District of County Union Will Meet in Presbyterian Church The third district of the Orange County Christian Endeavor Union will hold its semi-annual rally in the First Presbyterian church at Anaheim next Sunday afternoon at 2:30. An excellent program has been prepared under the direction of Dr. Walter McMullen of Fullerton. The praise service will be conducted by W. H. Thomas of Santa Ana, who is known from coast to coast in Christian Endeavor circles as a man of high intellectual Christianity and citizen. A FARM NOTE John Lee Coulter, the expert special agent of the Department of Agriculture, was talking about the wonderful increase in America's dairy products. “There are today,” he said, “more than 20,000,000 cows producing butter and milk for the nation. Such figures are almost incredible, are they not? They remind us of the paragraph printed in the farm-notes column of the Cinnamonson Scimitar. “‘Terrible news,’ this paragraph ran, ‘reaches us from the Perkiomen. It seems that a boy climbed a cornstalk to see how the corn was getting along, and now the stalk is growing up faster than the boy can climb down. He is at present clear out of sight. Three men have undertaken to cut the stalk down with axes, and save the boy from starvation, but it grows so fast that they can't hack twice in the same place. The boy is living on nothing but raw corn, and has already thrown down four bushels of cobs.’” MOTHER AND SON IN JAIL A pitiful condition in a Newport Beach family is shown by the fact that at the county jail are Mrs. Martha Gibbons, charged with insanity, and her son, Phillip, to be taken to the State school at lone. Mrs. Gibbons was in jail some time ago on a charge of insanity. At that time she was violent. After a long time she became better, and was allowed to go. Recently, however, it was found necessary to again take her into The third district of the Orange County Christian Endeavor Union will hold its semi-annual rally in the First Presbyterian church at Anaheim next Sunday afternoon at 2:30. An excellent program has been prepared under the direction of Dr. Walter McMullen of Fullerton. The praise service will be conducted by W. H. Thomas of Santa Ana, who is known from coast to coast in Christian Endeavor circles as a man of high intellectual Christianity and citizenship. Short talks will be made by several of the efficient staff of county officers. One important feature will be the talk on the coming International convention which is to be held in Los Angeles in July, when about 50,000 delegates are expected. J. P. Welles, of Los Angeles, a past state president, will present this theme. All friends and members of Christian Endeavor societies are cordially invited to attend the meeting. The following program has been prepared: Praise service...W. H. Thomas Devotional...Rev. Bruce Brown, Ph. D. Los Angeles, 1913...J. P. Welles The Quiet Hour...Mrs. H. F. Ashley Financing the Kingdom... Clifton R. Allen Endeavor Afloat...Donald McMillan Offertory—Duet... Dudley T. Lewis and Buel A. Fuller Address—Next Steps...J. P. Welles Glory Song. Benediction. Arthur Allenbaugh, a local character addicted to drink, was sentenced to Patton asylum for two years by Judge West on Friday. Allenbaugh is an habitual tipster, and was sent to the asylum in an endeavor to reform him of his evil ways. MOTHER AND SON IN JAIL A pitiful condition in a Newport Beach family is shown by the fact that at the county jail are Mrs. Martha Gibbons, charged with insanity, and her son, Phillip, to be taken to the State school at lone. Mrs. Gibbons was in jail some time ago on a charge of insanity. At that time she was violent. After a long time she became better, and was allowed to go. Recently, however, it was found necessary to again take her into custody, and the probability is that she will be sent to the asylum at Patton. Phillip Gibbons, the son, has been ordered committed to the State school at lone. He was first taken in charge by the Detention Home two or three years ago on account of his home conditions. He escaped from the home twice. He has been in two or three burglaries, and twice escaped from the George Junior Republic, where he was sent by the juvenile court. KITTY MEASOR TO JAIL Last week Judge West issued a commitment on the authority of which Mrs. Kate Measor will be taken to jail to serve two terms. She was tried on two charges of liquor selling. On one charge the sentence is a fine of $25 and a term of six months in jail. On the second she must pay $100 fine and serve seven months in jail. The serving of one term will not commence until the other is served. Mrs. Measor lives at Delhi. Antonio Daniel paid $10 into the city treasury at the suggestion of Judge Howard on Monday for being under the influence of the ardent. The judge informed Antonio that his court room needed a stove and that $10 would about compensate for his misdeeds. ANAHEIM GAZETTE ROYAL BAKING POWDER Absolutely Pure [From a series of elaborate chemical tests.] Comparative digestibility of food made with different baking powders. An equal quantity of bread (biscuit) was made with each of two kinds of baking powder—cream of tartar and alum—and submitted separately to the action of the digestive fluid, each for the same length of time. The percentage of the food digested is shown as follows: Broad made with Royal Cream of Tartar Powder: 99 Per Cent. Digested Bread made with alum powder: 67 Per Cent. Digested Royal Baking Powder raised food is shown to be of greatly superior digestibility and healthfulness. SCALE INFESTED TREES WILL BE PARCELS POST AND THE SMALL MERCHANT The parcels post law which weat into effect the first of the year, offers an opportunity for wide awake merchants in the smaller communities if they will SCALE INFESTED TREES WILL BE FUMIGATED ORCHARDS AT FULLERTON WILL GET ATTENTION FROM HORTICULTURAL COMMISSIONER SUPERVISOR PREPARING FOR GOOD WORK IN LA HABRA ROAD DISTRICT The Board of Supervisors on Tuesday received word that the owners of four orange groves in the Fullerton district had refused to fumigate their orchards reported to be infested with red, black and purple scale. The board passed an order instructing County Horticultural Commissioner Bishop to proceed under the State law to fumigate the orchards. Bishop stated that he would serve the proper notices at once on the owners, who are E. M. Campbell, 420 Story building, Los Angeles; Mrs. Jessie L. Miller, 614 Flower street, Santa Ana; Mary J. Smith and J. A. Smith, Fullerton. On the report of County Surveyor McBride that Ford's contract is completed, the supervisors accepted the new road built up Seviers Canyon to the county line. County Clerk Williams was instructed to write to Los Angeles and San Diego counties and see what bonds are required of their highway commissioners. This is to be done to determine what bonds should be required of the commissioners of this county. The petition to transfer Sunset Beach from the Springdale school district to the Huntington Beach school district was granted. It was decided to have an insurance of $1,000 placed upon the safe in the office of the county assessor. O. M. Robbins & Son will write the policy. Supervisors Talbert and Struck were each granted permission to buy road graders for the county. Supervisor Schumacher was granted permission to expend in excess of $300 in La Habra road district. PARCELS POST AND THE SMALL MERCHANT The parcels post law which weat into effect the first of the year, offers an opportunity for wide awake merchants in the smaller communities if they will but seize it. If they don't they may depend upon it that the big city stores and the mail order houses will. There is no reason why the smaller merchants shouldn't reach out into the surrounding country for trade as well as their big brothers of the cities. They have an especial advantage and protection in the zone feature of the law, which increases the postage rate with the increased distance a parcel is carried. The big mail order house 2,000 miles away will have to pay approximately 50 per cent more to transport the same weight of parcel to the same person that the local merchant will have to pay for the same service. Shopping by mail is going to be an important branch of commerce, gaining steadily in volume as the efficiency of the parcels post and the familiarity of the public with its advantages increases. The local merchant has many important advantages over the city department store, and mail order house in reaching out for rthe trade of his section, and if he is a live one he will profit by them. If he is "asleep at the switch," the big city, houses will get the cream of the trade through his own fault. The department stores and mail order houses know well the potency of printer's ink in securing business. Let the smaller merchant take a leaf from his book of knowledge and backing up his good advertising with honest goods, fair prices, proximity to the customer to correct any mistakes or adjust any differences, and a lower postage rate, the competition of the big cities will cease to be a bogy, and the smaller merchant will rise up and call the parcels post blessed. BIG SAVING IN LIGHT BILL That the new metal filament incandescent lamps will save two-thirds the light bill was effectively brought out recently in a case before the court at Duisburg, Germany. It seems that the owner of a small factory was haled before the court charged with tampering with his electric light meter. The only evidence against him was that his light bill for the year was but 188 marks as against 587 marks for the year was but 188 marks as... It was decided to have an insurance of $1,000 placed upon the safe in the office of the county assessor. O. M. Robbins & Son will write the policy. Supervisors Talbert and Struck were each granted permission to buy road graders for the county. Supervisor Schumacher was granted permission to expend in excess of $300 in La Habra road district. It was decided to adopt the same schedule of advertising and job work prices as was maintained by the county last year. Supervisor Talbert was appointed to secure specifications for painting the court house roof. T. B. Talbert, chairman of the board of supervisors; Cal. D. Lester, auditor, and J. C. Joplin, treasurer, have fixed the rate of interest at 2 per cent payable quarterly on loans of county money for the year 1913. The rate is fixed annually in the month of January. The law provides that the rate shall be a reasonable rate and not less than 2 per cent per annum on the daily balances deposited. The rate of 2 per cent is what adjoining counties receive; on State money the State has received some higher than 2 per cent, it being let out on bid. The security required by the county for loans are bonds of the United States, or of this State, or of any county, municipality or school district within this State; the market value of the bonds must be at least 10 per cent in excess of the loan. Orange county at the present time has $138,800.00 loaned to the banks of the county, which means a revenue of $231,33 per month to the taxpayers. The additional sum of $1,298,829 for the good roads bonds will be received for the Fullerton high school bonds during the next few days. BIG SAVING IN LIGHT BILL That the new metal filament incandescent lamps will save two-thirds the light bill was effectively brought out recently in a case before the court at Duisburg, Germany. It seems that the owner of a small factory was hailed before the court charged with tampering with his electric light meter. The only evidence against him was that his light bill for the year was but 188 marks as against 587 marks for the preceding year, while the defendant not only had better light for his factory but more of it. The engineer of the factory explained to the court that he had substituted metal filament lamps for the old carbon lamps throughout the building and that this had resulted in saving 68 per cent. As there was no other light bill the judge promptly decided the case in favor of the defendant. TURKISH DELIGHT Soak an ounce of gelatine for two hours in half a cupful of cold water. Dissolve two cupfuls of granulated sugar in half a cupful of cold water. As soon as it boils add the gelatine and cook steadily for 20 minutes. Flavor with the rind and juice of one orange and orange flower water or rose water. Turn into tins wet with cold water and when set cut into squares. Roll in a mixture of cornstarch and confectioner's sugar. A few chopped nuts may be added to the sirup when it is taken from the fire. Mr. and Mrs. R. Payne, who have been guests for some weeks of Dr. and Mrs. Godfrey Stock, left on Monday for their home in Michigan. Mr. Payne and wife have spent three months in Southern California and will probably return to Anaheim later on to take up their permanent residence. Mrs. Julia Morris of Livingston, Mont., is a guest of Mr. and Mrs. R. B. Herman.
