PAY TRIBUTE TO THEIR DEAD COMRADES MEMORIAL SERVICES FITTINGLY OBSERVED BY MALVERN HILL POST FRIDAY ANAHEIM CEMETERY COVERED WITH BEAUTIFUL FLOWERS BY LOVING HANDS Forty mounds cover the remains of Union veterans of the Civil War in the Anaheim cemetery, and in the same consecrated ground lie four soldiers who fought with the Confederacy, but the loving hands which strewed these graves with beautiful flowers during the memorial services last Friday made no distinction, covering all with a wealth of blossoms. Only 22 gray and grizzled veterans were in the line of march under command of Comrade Knowlton, following the banner of Malvern Hill Post Friday. Each year this line is decimated, and each Memorial Day the decorators find new mounds in the cemetery. One of the freshest of the graves was that of H. G. Remington, of Buena Park. Mr. Remington was a member of the Buena Park male quartette and expected to take part in the musical program of the exercises, but two weeks ago he was buried and the other three members sang without him. The procession formed at the gates of the cemetery, the Fullerton military band in the lead playing the funeral But don't forget that the generation following you will pick it up when it finally falls from your hands and maintain its integrity with the same courage that animated you when you were fighting in its defense. God grant that the occasion may never require it but I believe that I can safely promise you that every young man in this audience would rush to the defense of our country and offer his life for it just as you did 50 years ago, should it be necessary." The singing of "America" by the entire audience and a benediction by Rev. Bruce Brown ended the services. LARGE CROWDS WILL WITNESS ROAD RACE Fourth of July Event Will Be Watched by Thousands of People Within the next week the route of the Panama-Pacific Los Angeles-San Francisco road race will be definitely announced. Although the valley road has been decided upon some of the intermediate points are yet to be selected. The road from Los Angeles to Bakersfield is well marked. The first checking point will be Elizabeth Lake, 68 miles from the start. This will eliminate the possibility of any cut offs. From the first checking point to Bakersfield there is one road. Bakersfield will be a checking point and control. The cars will take on fuel and oil there and will be driven once around the race track. This will be a lively point of the race as the entrants will all have crews there ready to make any hurry-up repairs that are necessary. Out of Bakersfield the route will follow the main road to Delano where it Each year this line is decimated, and each Memorial Day the decorators find new mounds in the cemetery. One of the freshest of the graves was that of H. G. Remington, of Buena Park. Mr. Remington was a member of the Buena Park male quartette and expected to take part in the musical program of the exercises, but two weeks ago he was buried and the other three members sang without him. The procession formed at the gates of the cemetery, the Fullerton military band in the lead playing the funeral march, with Malvern Hill Post and 50 small school children of Buena Park, who had been selected to decorate the graves, following. The procession halted at the speakers' stand where a large crowd had already gathered, and after a selection by the band Rev. C. R. Moore opened the services by an invocation. "Where the Nation's Heroes Sleep," a song by the Buena Park male quartette, was next on the program. The quartette is composed of Messrs. W. D. Rose, W. T. Millspaugh and Ben S. Wilson, the fourth member, Mr. Remington, having died but ten days previously. Lincoln's immortal address on the battlefield of Gettysburg was then recited by Hollis Knowlton, of Fullerton, and the Buena Park ladies' quartette sang "Cover Them Over With Beautiful Flowers." Mesdames Martin, Rose, Robeson and Allen are the members of the quartette. Following this, while the band rendered "Abide With Me," the Buena Park children, laden with flowers, marched through the cemetery in charge of the ladies' committee, and decorated the graves of the dead veterans. "The Unknown Dead" was the subject assigned to Rev. A. B. Markle, and he handled the subject in his own interesting and convincing style. Elder Markle was one of those who responded to his country's call in her hour of need, and he speaks from a knowledge born of experience when he talks on subjects relative to the war. “There are 83 national cemeteries in the United States,” said he, “and in them are thousands of graves marked with a headstone bearing a single name—'Unknown.' The heroes occupying these graves were not always unknown. Each of these boys was known to the loved ones he left behind when he marched away to war 50 years ago. He was known to the government he defended and gave his life to perpetuate. He was known to the enemy he helped to defeat. It is only the name of the hero under that sod that is lost to us, but his deeds are remembered: MAILMEN TO AID FORESTRY SERVICE Postoffice Department Issues Order to Rural Carriers to Aid Forestry Department The official Postal Guide for May calls the attention of postmasters and rural carriers to an order of the post-office department that the carriers report to the proper authorities all forest fires detected along their routes. This order was issued at the request of the secretary of agriculture. For several years in some sections of the country a sort of informal understanding has existed between national forest rangers and mail carriers with the idea of securing increased fire protection. The marked effectiveness of this co-operation was a strong argument in favor of its extension and official sanction, and was in part responsible for the request of the secretary of agriculture which resulted in the order by the postoffice department. The plan is for the carrier to report a fire to the nearest forest officer on his route, or, if no officer lives on the route, to have him notified by some responsible citizen. State and national foresters are supplied with post road maps and with postal guides containing the addresses of the different postmasters. The postmasters in turn are supplied by the foresters with the names, addresses, and telephone call numbers of forest officers residing on or near the carriers' routes. Co-operation between rural carriers and federal forest officers will take place in Florida, Arkansas, South Dakota, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Arizona, Utah, Montana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, and California. Co-operation with state officers is given in all the New England states, and in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, West Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Idaho, Washington, Oregon, and California, all these states having established fire protective systems. Mr. Markle said the custom of decorating the graves of soldiers originated in the South. The idea struck General John A. Logan, commander-in-chief of the G. A. R., as appropriate and fitting, and he issued an order establishing Memorial Day in 1868. The order was opposed by some who thought that its observance would serve to perpetuate the animosity between the North and the South. It has had the opposite effect, however, and today both the North and the South will decorate the graves of the dead heroes without inquiring which side they fought on. A chorus entitled "Rest, Heroes, Rest," was rendered by the Buena Park choir at the conclusion of the address, and Rev. Frank Dowling, the chief speaker, was introduced. Elder Dowling has delivered the Memorial Day address at Anaheim on several previous occasions, but he always has something new to say to the old veterans. He is an eloquent speaker and is in sympathy with the subject on which he talked. In his peroration to the old soldiers he said: "It is not out of place to recall to you that the flag you have so heroicly upheld will soon fall from your hands." FULLERTON HIGH VANQUISHES DOWNEY A ONE TO NOTHING BALL GAME PULLED OFF ON ANAHEIM DIAMOND THURSDAY WINNERS TO CONTEST FOR THE SOUTHERN CAL. CHAMPIONSHIP WITH SAN DIEGO Several hundred enthusiastic, rampant male and female baseball fans, bearing flags and streamers, armed with megaphones and leather lungs, and loaded with class yells, invaded the decorous, peaceful precincts of Anaheim Thursday afternoon and took possession of the ball grounds. They were from Fullerton and Downey and came to witness a ball game between the high school teams of their respective towns, and to root their own to victory if possible. The contest was designated a semifinal championship game, the winner to be pitted against the San Diego high school nine at an early date for the championship of Southern California. It was a swift and classy game, one of the best seen on the local diamond this season, and at its close one lonesome tally was hung up in the Fullerton column against nine cyphers on the Downey side. This one score was made in the seventh inning and was the result of bad throws, the only serious errors made in the game. After Porter had CHARGE HIGHWAY SURVEYORS OF SOLDIERING ASSOCIATED CHAMBERS OF COMMERCE HOLD SESSION ON COUNTY COMMISSION THINK FREIGHT RATES ON ALL KINDS OF FRUITS SHOULD BE REDUCED Delegates to the number of 80 gathered at Buena Park on Wednesday evening last for the regular monthly meeting of the Associated Chambers of Commerce of Orange county. An excellent turkey supper, prepared in matchless style by the ladies of the Park, was enjoyed to the "fullest" by all present. After the banquet Mrs. Nettie Roberson gave a reading, "If I Knew You and You Knew Me." She was loudly applauded for her clever reading of the poem. Sixteen delegates representing 11 towns were present. Lew Wallace, of Newport, presided in the absence of W. A. Zimmerman, president. A. A. Mills reported upon the freight rates on fruits, both fresh and dried. In his opinion all rates should be reduced on all kinds of fruits and the differential maintained. The report was received and filed. Gus Stern, of Fullerton, chairman of the Good Roads Committee, reported the committee had met in Santa Ana, What a Difference It Makes Son: "Why do people say, 'Dame Gossip'?" Father: "Because they are too polite to leave off the 'e'." If a man will drop the "t," that will make "this" town "his" town; and dropping the hammer will do the same thing. BUSINESS CARDS J. W.

Center St to be pitted against the San Diego high school nine at an early date for the championship of Southern California. It was a swift and classy game, one of the best seen on the local diamond this season, and at its close one lonesome tally was hung up in the Fullerton column against nine cyphers on the Downey side. This one score was made in the seventh inning and was the result of bad throws, the only serious errors made in the game. After Porter had gone out on a high foul and Lemke was thrown out at first, Callan reached first on a hit. With two out and a couple of strikes called on Salvoisen, Callan took a desperate chance and made a dash for second. In attempting to cut him off Brookshire threw ten feet above the second baseman's head. The ball bounded into center field and Callan struck the plate a fraction of a second before it could be fielded home. The line up of the opposing teams was: Fuller on — King, pitcher; Callan, catcher; Walton, 1st base; Ortega, 2nd base; Porter, 3rd base; Lemke, short stop; Bickley, left field; Salvoisen, center field; Ford, right field. Downey—Ball, pitcher; Brookshire, catcher; McKeller, 1st base; Morrow, 2d base; McCulloch, 3d base; Redfield, short stop; Copeland, left field; Jewell, center field; Hammerton, right field. King, the one-armed all-round colored athlete of the Fullerton high, who wins more points in athletic games for that institution than the combined balance of the school, was in the box: King is a wonder for the first half of the game but generally goes to pieces in the latter half. In this instance he began to weaken in the eighth, after striking out ten men and permitting but two hits. Redfield, the first man up in the eighth, hit safely. McCulloch and McKeller, who followed each connected with the ball, but both of them descended into Lemke's mit. Ball also bunted it into the diamond and was thrown out at first. The Fullerton captain would have pulled King down after this but the fans loudly demanded that he be permitted to finish the game he had already won. In the next inning, however, after Brookshire had sent a high fly into Ortega's hands and Morrow had made a clean hit King was benched and Salvoisen went onto the mound. Morrow made an effort to advance himself another station but died in the attempt, and Herb struck out Copeland. Ball, the Downey spit-ball twirler, is something of an artist also. He was only one strike-out behind King, having towns were present. Lew Wallace, of Newport, presided in the absence of W. A. Zimmerman, president. A. A. Mills reported upon the freight rates on fruits, both fresh and dried. In his opinion all rates should be reduced on all kinds of fruits and the differential maintained. The report was received and filed. Gus Stern, of Fullerton, chairman of the Good Roads Committee, reported the committee had met in Santa Ana, May 13th. Howard A. Wassum has been empowered to attend the meetings of the commission. Mr. Wassum sent in a voluminous report, the gist of which seemed to be that those in charge of the project were, each and all, doing as well as could be expected. A general discussion followed, during which G. A. Whidden, of Santa Ana, and Rev. Moore, of Westminster, both spoke of the many little annoying things which are continually arising to hinder the work. Rev. Moore is a practical civil engineer and his remarks commanded more than ordinary attention. Mr. Eaton of the Abstract office, also told how abstract work could hinder the job. The report was accepted. W. A. Cornelius reported his efforts to have the notorious Carr bill shelved. W. W. Irving announced that he knew of one company which would build and operate a canning factory in this county if 50 acres of tomatoes should be guaranteed planted. A proposed change in the State highway through La Habra was the cause of a red hot resolution favoring the old El Camino Real route, and condemning the hill route. Report was made against the upper road and in all probability the road will run as originally projected. As it is claimed by a great many that the parties doing the surveying on the State roads are, so to speak, soldiering on the job, a resolution requiring the survey parties to be at work eight hours per day, was read. An alternative to getting up early was given in the idea of building camps along the road near their work, so that the workmen would be close to the scene of their labors. A. C. Tiede, of Santa Ana, read a resolution of thanks to David Hewes for the public spirit shown by the latter in the matter of Hewes' Park. The resolution was enthusiastically adopted. The indigent Mexican and Spanish problem was well ventilated in a long letter from the Woman’s Civics Club of Santa Ana. The women recommended an industrial school. The whole matter was referred to the Committee on Education. The president of the organization is represented by Attorneys at Law Special Attention Given Probate Matters Notary Public 105 E.

In the next inning, however, after Brookshire had sent a high fly into Ortega's hands and Morrow had made a clean hit King was benched and Salvoisen went onto the mound. Morrow made an effort to advance himself another station but died in the attempt, and Herb struck out Copeland. Ball, the Downey spit-ball twirler, is something of an artist also. He was only one strike-out behind King, having nine to his credit and only three hits were made off his delivery. But for the two unfortunate errors in the seventh which permitted Callan to gallop home, the nine innings would have ended without a score. The Fullerton boys will now play San Diego for the high school championship of Southern California. The date has not been fixed but the game will probably be played on the grounds of the southern city within two weeks. Callan, who caught for Fullerton, was signed up by Manager Hasson Wednesday and will play with Anaheim during the balance of the season. He was the classy back stop of the Olinda team and did much toward winning the championship of Orange county for that aggregation. He will add strength to the home team. Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Everharty and son of Los Angeles, former well-known citizens of Anaheim, were in town on Decoration Day visiting friends. They were guests of Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Schneider. "My doctor has the reputation of being quite a lady-killer." "Has he? Mine doesn't make the slightest distinction between the sexes." In some respects this town is not perfect; are you? A. C.

The indigent Mexican and Spanish problem was well ventilated in a long letter from the Woman's Civics Club of Santa Ana. The women recommended an industrial school. The whole matter was referred to the Committee on Education. The president of the organization is empowered by it to continue efforts to have an insane asylum erected in this county, if possible. The body was given a cordial invitation to go to Santa Ana on June 9th, to attend a celebration known as Moose day. Also to go to Michigan on the June excursion. The ladies of Buena Park, who had assisted in the banquet were thanked for the excellent manner they had done their parts as hostesses. The association will meet next in Fullerton, Wednesday night, June 25th. This life is what we make it; so is Anaheim. Norville Clough, a real estate man of Long Beach, was here recently visiting J. G. Welsh on his ranch north of town. He had a marvelous escape from participation in the Long Beach disaster Saturday when the auditorium collapsed. He and his father, together with three friends, were standing talking near the entrance to the auditorium when the floor immediately in front of their feet gave way and crashed to the ground beneath with its human load. Had it given way a foot farther back, all five would have been precipitated into the death funnel. Mr. Clough's father stared into the pit dazedly for awhile, then turning, said "I'm going home."
