WOMEN'S CLUBS HOLD A JOINT MEETING EBELL SOCIETY ENTERTAINS NINE CLUBS FROM NEIGHBORING TOWNS SATURDAY EXCELLENT PROGRAM RENDERED WHICH INCLUDED ADDRESSES MUSIC AND RECITATIONS The Ebell Reciprocity meeting held last Saturday afternoon, at Odd Fellows hall, was not only a very enjoyable affair but of great interest to club women throughout the county. The following womens' clubs were represented: Santa Ana Ebell. Santa Ana Woman's. Santa Ana Civics. Huntington Beach Woman's. Garden Grove Tuesday Afternoon. Orange Woman's. Placentia Round Table. Yorba Linda Federated. La Habra Woman's Improvement. After the address of welcome, Mrs. Terry, the president, introduced Mrs. A. J. Lawton of Santa Ana, who is president of the Southern District, C. F. W. C. Her address was very interesting as she spoke particularly on the different lines of work that the Federated clubs are engaged in, and some of the results that have been attained. Mrs. A. J. Padgham, chairman of music, Southern District, C. F. W. C. In the hearts still working, yearning Cast no shadow on the floor. Many birthdays may you number, Years which only joys encumber, Ever helpful, ever sure, To endure—Forevermore. Miss Lucy Chamberlain, a talented reader of Pasadena, (in Irish costume) gave several groups of Irish selections. So realistic were they that one could almost imagine oneself listening to a fresh arrival from the land of Erin. After the program the ladies repaired to the banquet room on the third floor where delicious tea and cake were served by the hospitality committee. The decorations were artistic. Taken altogether it was a very helpful and inspiring meeting. Ebell Notes The executive board met at the home of Mrs. F. A. Backs on Monday afternoon. At this meeting many interesting things came up for discussion. Mrs. Ida Dutton was elected delegate to attend a conference of the Tri-Counties Reforestation commission at Riverside held yesterday. This conference was called for the purpose of discussing the best plans for conserving and controlling the waters of the Santa Ana River. The music section met yesterday with the Misses Rimpau. The domestic science section will meet with Mrs. Reuther on N. Los Angeles street tomorrow afternoon. The travel section will meet with Mrs. Anlauf, on Illinois street the 3rd Wednesday. Several very interesting papers have been prepared for this meeting.

J. Lawton of Santa Ana, who is president of the Southern District, C. F. W. C. Her address was very interesting as she spoke particularly on the different lines of work that the Federated clubs are engaged in, and some of the results that have been attained. Mrs. A. J. Padgham, chairman of music, Southern District, C. F. W. C., spoke on "What can be Accomplished by having a Community Chorus," and said that Santa Ana had one of fifty voles that is doing excellent work, also that an embryo Ellis club of 10 had just been formed in Santa Ana, and much will be expected of them in the future. Mrs. Newell, Southern District chairman of waterways and water conservation, asked that such a committee be appointed from Anaheim Ebell. The vocal selection, "Valley of Laughter," (W. Sanderson) and "The Woodland Croon Song," (Clutsan) by Mrs. E. W. Hauck of the U. S. C. conservatory of Music were well rendered. Mrs. Hauck has a clear soporano voice of high range and very sweet tone, and we predict a successful future for her. Mrs. Harry Dyer, of Long Beach, formerly of Anaheim, recited a poem of her own composition. It is useless to say that the poem was highly appreciated. Mrs. Dyer, although not now a resident of Anaheim, retains her club membership here. The poem was entitled "To the Anaheim Ebell," and elicited much applause. It is as follows: TO THE ANAHEIM EBELL Ah, distinctly, I remember It was in the month November, When we made the charter member To the Ebell we adore. Eagerly we wished to flourish Food, our intellect to nourish, Building strong and building sure. To endure—Forevermore. First we stood, then wondering, fearing, Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal Ever dared to dream or tell. Suddenly our fears were broken, Fertile minds gave forth the token, We'll be steadfast, building well. Then we whispered and an echo answered, For our loved Ebell. Presently we all grew stronger, Hesitating then no longer, Chose we leaders with discernment, Forming sections broad and sure. None dissenting, no one balking Angeles street tomorrow afternoon. The travel section will meet with Mrs. Anlauf, on Illinois street the 3rd Wednesday. Several very interesting papers have been prepared for this meeting. Conference at Fullerton The conference in the interest of the educational campaign undertaken by the Womens' Federated clubs of California, to be held in the auditorium of the Fullerton high school, Saturday, March 11th will be of interest to the citizens in general. This will be an open meeting and promises to be well attended. The following well known people will have part in the day's program: Mrs. H. E. De Nyse of Riverside and Mrs. Elizabeth Hull of Huntington Park, chairmen of County Life for the Southern and Los Angeles districts; Mrs. G. W. Beattle of East Highlands, chairman of Education for the Southern district; Mrs. Roger J. Sterritt of Los Angeles, state chairman of Education; Mrs. George Cable, Southern district chairman of Industrial and Social conditions.

Presently we all grew stronger, Hesitating then no longer, Chose we leaders with discernment, Forming sections broad and sure. None dissenting, no one balking. Tho without we heard some knocking. Built strong and builted sure, To endure—Forevermore. Much we marveled as we travelled, Foreign landscapes we unraveled, And with Stoddard's aid we journeyed To a far and distant shore. Learned of stately church and castle In the saintly days of yore, Tried with foreign words to wrestle, Ever faltering on the lore, Twill be so—Forevermore. Then we formed a strong alliance, Leaving darning in defiance, To attend domestic science Of the Ebell we adore. Nothing lost, nor did we rue it, Learned an easy way to do it, Homeward to hurry thru it, Handy hints so true and sure, To remember—Evermore. Then in drama we uncertain, Waiting for the rising curtain. Thrilled with terrors never felt By any mortal here before. And to still our loud heart beatings, Oft our lines we kept repeating, Trembling, trembling, all the more. Tho in drama we were funny, Grant us this, we got the money, And in gratitude remember This poor section we implore. Let your tears with ours commingle. Thinking only of the jingle, Just of this and nothing more. Backward thru the years now turning, All your candles brightly burning Clerk Williams If You Want on The Board Hereafter all persons desiring to serve on an election board in this state must make an application on printed blanks ready for the purpose and out of the applications filed the boards of supervisors are to choose the ones that seem best qualified. In the past it has been the custom to appoint election officers, but the supervisors can no longer do this. Women serving on election boards must put down in writing their exact ages and not merely state over 21. Several score of applications for service on election boards have been filed with County Clerk Williams. All applications must be in his hands by March 23rd, and shortly after appointments will be made. To properly answer all of the questions on the application blanks given to all seeking to serve, a man must be pretty well acquainted with himself. He must tell his full name, his residence, his age, his occupation, where he is employed, whether he has acted as an election officer before and when and where, whether he has passed a civil service examination, when and where and what for, what his educational qualifications are, his experience in clerical work, whether he is registered and whether he can read and write English. He must further certify that his application is written in his own handwriting. He must give as references the names and addresses of three friends. One of the statements to be made by each applicant is this: "I am not and have not been, within the last 90 days, employed in any capacity, other than that of election officers, by the county, city and county, or incorporated city or town, in which I new reside." LOCAL ATHLETES WIN IN TRACK MEET ANAHEIM HIGH DEFEATS FULLERTON BY DECISIVE SCORE LAST WEDNESDAY AFTERNOON TEAM EXPECTS TO WIN AGAIN AT COMING COUNTY TRACK MEET AT FULLERTON Two weeks ago the athletic team of the Anaheim high school went over to Fullerton and permitted the team from that city's chief educational institution to defeat them in the field and track events. It was a close score only two or three points dividing them, but it was enough to give the Fullerton fans an opportunity to crowd and to cause the victors to swell up visibly. It was an unexpected victory, as Anaheim was considered the toughest proposition in the county. It was recalled that a year previously, at the Orange county high school track meet, Anaheim defeated its four opponents by an overwhelming number of points. But the score board looked different last Thursday when the two teams met again on the Anaheim grounds. The locals were again crippled by the absence of Webb, but they won most of the events, and rolled up 71 points while their opponents were making 55. This was turning the tables with a vengeance, still a few points got away from the Anaheim boys that might POPULAR LECTURER COMING TO ANAHEIM Peter Collins Will Appear at High School Auditorium March 20 What's Wrong With the World, will be subject of the lecture under the auspices of Anaheim Council of the Knights of Columbus at the high school auditorium Monday evening, March 20, by Peter Collins of Massachusetts. Mr. Collins is well qualified to discuss in a broad, comprehensive manner the great problems of our day, and to set forth constructive remedies that aid in the advancement and progress of civilization. During the past five years alone Mr. Collins has spoken to over 1,000,000 people in the United States and Canada, and has travelled nearly 100,000 miles. Peter Collins needs no introduction to the men and women of America interested in the great constructive movements of Christian Democracy and Social Reform. His experience and activity in the cause of social legislation well qualifies him for his platform work, having served for many years as International Secretary of the International Brotherhood of Electrical Workers, Editor of the Electrical Workers, and as a member of the Illinois Industrial Commission, one of the first commissions in the U.S. that made possible a great code of laws for the health, safety and comfort of the workers in that state. This code of laws has been copied by many states and has received the approval of sociologists and statesmen the world over. This commission also reported to the legislature the recommendation for legislation limiting the hours of wom- weight to his opinions."—New York World. "Peter Collins is an eloquent orator. His oratory and zeal caused him to be recognized as a leader."—Boston Daily Post. "He has few peers as an orator and is a man of brilliant attainments."—Herald, Pawnee, Ill. "Peter Collins was taught in school that honesty is not merely a policy but a duty to conscience and he has made this principle his guiding star."—Citizen, Chelsea, Mass. "He gave a stirring and able address." St. Louis Gazette. "Peter Collins is one of the best lecturers in America. His message appealed strongly to every one who heard him."—Quincy Daily Journal, Ill. "His audience could hold its enthusiasm no longer and broke forth in hearty applause."—Elyria, Ohio. Republican. "Brainy, conservative, energetic and practical, Peter Collins combines an education that fits him to battle mentally with the biggest problems and the biggest of men."—The Republic, Boston. "Peter Collins is a master of his subject."—Norwich Record, Ct. "When Peter Collins stepped upon the platform, looking to perfection the unassuming electrical worker he is, few of us had any idea of the treat in store for us. That he had been there before was evident. He speaks quick, clearly and effectively."—New Orleans Picayune. MANUFACTURERS IN CITY OF LONG BEACH Bureau of Census Publishes Figures Of Neighboring City's Activities The population of Long Beach at the census of 1910 was 17,809, and it is estimated that it was 24,000 on July 1, 1914. But the score board looked different last Thursday when the two teams met again on the Anaheim grounds. The locals were again crippled by the absence of Webb, but they won most of the events, and rolled up 71 points while their opponents were making 55. This was turning the tables with a vengeance, still a few points got away from the Anaheim boys that might have been captured had they all been feeling well. Following is a list of the events and the winners: Mile run—Won by Clabaugh, A., first; t Velasco, F., second; Harpster, A., third. High Jump—Goodale, A., first; Bradley, A., and Vogel, A., tied for second. 100-Yard Dash—Osborne, F., first; Davis, F., second; Megede, A., third.

The annual track meet of the Orange county high schools will be held at Fullerton on March 18. Coach Henry has a promising bunch of athletes under his charge and expects to win in these contests. Two or three of the favorites went out with last year's senior class, but a number of the principal point winners are still with the team. The commission also reported to the legislature the recommendation for legislation limiting the hours of women workers. The bill adopted to cover the recommendation has stood the test of the Illinois supreme court and the supreme court of the United States. In conjunction with the signing of the bill Governor Deneen of Illinois wrote the following letter to Mr. Collins: "In connection with the approval of the bill relative to the use of hazardous and dangerous machinery, I wish to congratulate you as a member of the Commission which prepared this excellent measure and to thank you for the valuable services rendered to the state by you as a member of the commission." Mr. Collins has been an active worker for many years in the cause of Social Reform and Christian Democracy. His work for the cause of social reform and the advancement of the interest and welfare of the workingman was specially blessed by His Holiness Pope Plus the Tenth. His efforts have always been for constructive service, and his life has been devoted to this work. He is a consistent and untiring advocate of the cause of the workers and has devoted years of his life in fighting the workers' greatest enemy—Socialism. He has delivered lectures and addresses in many parts of the country before schools, colleges and universities, business men's associations, chambers of commerce, labor organizations, woman's clubs, Knights of Columbus councils, legislative committees, and many other bodies and associations at Fordham University, Notre Dame, Oberlin, and universities of Kentucky, Iowa, Georgia, Minnesota, etc. President Barker of the University of Kentucky said: "Mr. Collins has a wonderful message.. It was one of the ablest addresses I have ever heard." Mr. Collins has taken part in more public platform debates than any man in America, and during the past two years alone has had 14 public joint de- MANUFACTURERS IN CITY OF LONG BEACH Bureau of Census Publishes Figures Of Neighboring City's Activities The population of Long Beach at the census of 1910 was 17,809, and it is estimated that it was 24,000 on July 1, 1914. The statistics represent the establishments located within the corporate limits of the city and show that the manufactures have increased since 1909. In the order of their importance from a percentage standpoint, the increases for the several items rank as follows: Value added by manufacture, 226.1%; wage earners, 219.5%; value of products, 217.7%; materials, 210.4%; wages, 192.8%; capital, 143.5%; salaries, 128.7%; primary horsepower, 106.8%. The capital invested, as reported in 1914, was $3,229,000, a gain of $1,-903,000, or 143.5%, over $1,$326,000 in 1909. In this connection it should be stated that the inquiry contained in the census schedule calls for the total amount of capital both owned and borrowed, invested in the business, but excludes the value of rented property, plant, or equipment which was employed in the conduct of manufacturing enterprises. In the final bulletins and reports the rental paid for such property is shown separately. The cost of materials used was $1,-546,000 in 1914 as against $498,000 in 1909, an increase of $1,$048,000 or 210.4%. In addition to the component materials which enter into the products of the establishment for the census year there are included the cost of fuel, mill supplies,and rent of power and heat. The cost of materials however does not include unused materials and supplies bought either for speculation or for use during a subsequent period. The census inquiry does not include the amounts paid for miscellaneous expenses such as office rent,royalties insurance ordinary repairs advertising traveling expenses or allowance for depreciation. The value of products was $2,-945,-000 in 1914 and $927,000 in 1909,the increase being $2,-018,000,或217.7%. The value of products represents their selling value or price at the plants as actually turned out by the The annual track meet of the Orange county high schools will be held at Fullerton on March 18. Coach Henry has a promising bunch of athletes under his charge and expects to win in these contests. Two or three of the favorites went out with last year's senior class, but a number of the principal point winners are still with the team. A new law recently has gone into effect in Iowa which permits traveling men and other citizens not at home on election days to cast their ballots wherever they may be. Application is made to the clerk of the county in which the citizen lives, and a ballot is sent by mail. This ballot is voted in the presence of a notary public, but not so the notary can see for whom the vote is cast, and the ballot is sent by registered mail to the county auditor. The law is a sensible innovation and only just, for a citizen should not be deprived of his vote merely because his business requires him to be elsewhere on election day. There are some who even predict the day is coming when the entire vote will be taken by mail. The Orange county harbor commission, composed of Linn L. Shaw, K. E. Watson, J. W. Duckworth, Lew H. Wallace and J. A. Armitage, held its lats meeting at Newport Beach and went over the work being done by the investigating crew, which is working under the direction of Engineer Chas. T. Leeds. This crew has been investigating the distance to bedrock by means of boring, and it is thought this work will be completed within two weeks. It is estimated the harbor commission will be ready to file its report with the supervisors within three months. Mr. Collins has taken part in more public platform debates than any man in America, and during the past two years alone has had 14 public joint debates from Massachusetts to Louisiana, and from Iowa, Minnesota and Ohio, to New York and New Jersey, besides meeting thousands of others in impromptu discussions at his lectures. At all Mr. Collins' lectures the open forum prevails and every one in his audience is afforded the privilege of asking any questions and being assured of an always courteous, prompt and convincing answer. The Iowa City Press of the University City of Iowa, where Peter Collins spoke to the commercial club, the University Fraternity Society and a great public meeting said: "Peter Collins is a real orator and this man of toll outstrips many scholars as platform publicist for K. of C. He is a thinker and an orator. All in all, his address was one of the best ever delivered in Iowa City. Mr. Collins will always be welcomed by the general public in the University City of Iowa." The press of the nation has been most glowing in their editorial appreciation of Mr. Collins and have everywhere devoted many columns of their news space to his messages. The following are but a few of the thousands of press comments: "Peter Collins is doing a great constructive service for his country." — Milwaukee Journal.

The values under this head also include amounts received for work done on materials furnished by others. The value added by manufacture represents the difference between the cost of materials used and the value of the products manufactured from them. The value added by manufacture was $1,399,000 in 1914 and $429,000 in 1909, the increase being $970,000, or 226.1%. The salaries and wages amounted to $805,000 in 1914 and to $294,000 in 1909, the increase being $511,000, or 173.8%. The average number of wage earners was 885 in 1914 and 277 in 1909, the increase being 608, or 219%.

Agreed Many leading gas-engine experts have recently declared that lubricating oil made from asphalt-base petroleum gives best results. Pacific Coast motorists made the same discovery years ago. For the majority have been using Zerolene in preference to all other oils. They agree with the experts. Zerolene is made from selected California petroleum—asphalt-base—under the unequalled refining facilities of the Standard Oil Company. Next time you empty the crank case, refill with Zero-lene.
