PETITION DENIED BY COUNTY BOARD SUPERVISORS REFUSE REQUEST FOR BUENA PARK-CYPRESS PROTECTION DISTRICT BIDS FOR CONSTRUCTION OF THE PLACENTIA-YORBA HIGHWAY WERE ALL REJECTED The petition of certain persons in the Buena Park-Cypress district for the formation of a storm water protection district, was denied by the board of supervisors Tuesday, and the petition was withdrawn. This section is included in the United protection district, and the object of the petitioners was to have themselves eliminated from that district. Demands on the county of Orange on the hospital and highway funds were allowed as read. The chairman was directed to sign the contract and approve the bonds of Harvey Garber for the construction of bridge across Santiago creek on Santiago Blvd. The hearing of the petition of A. F. Zaiser, et al., to close street in Tustin road district, was continued to Sept. 6, at 11 a.m. The map of Tract No. 66, Lovitt Home Tract, was accepted as the official plotting of said tract. Theo. A. Winbigler, coroner and public administrator, was given a leave of absence from the state for 20 days. Will C. Wood, state commissioner of secondary education. It is added as an appendix to the main history and occupies about 70 pages. TEACHERS' RETIREMENT The last list of retirement salaries granted by the state board of education, provides an interesting basis for statistical comparison. Thirty nine full term salaries of $500 per year were granted. The ages of these retiring teachers ranged from 50 to 73 years, and the average age was a small fraction over 60 years. The years of service ranged from the minimum of 30, to 44 years with an average of 32 years. Fourteen disability cases were acted upon favorably. The ages ranged from 51 to 74 years, with an average of a fraction over 60 years. The years of service averaged 25 years, and these teachers therefore average twenty-five thirtieths of a full salary. As the average life expectancy of teachers retiring at 60 years of age is about 12 years, the amount of money which the state must provide for each additional quarterly list of retirements is easily imagined. In will take $25,000 annually to meet the new June retirements, which in 12 years will amount to $300,000. The future stability of the retirement salary fund may demand the enactment of some provision requiring an age limit to be reached before salary payments are made, retirements prior to reaching such an age limit to be based on a showing of disability. As the teacher will have served a full thirty years prior to such retirement for such disability she will suffer no reduction in the amount of salary to be paid.

As the teacher will have served a full thirty years prior to such retirement for such disability she will suffer no reduction in the amount of salary to be paid. LOOK AT THE TWO REGISTERS THEN SELECT YOUR U.S. Booth as Republican and Johnson as Seek G. O. P. Nomina The photographic reproductions of the records of Willis H. Booth and Hiram W. Johnson t Booth is a Genuine Republican, endorsed of Republican State Central and County men of California. Johnson, registered as a Progressive, has a place on the November ballot as the Pro for United States Senator. But Johnson also wants the Republican no he is an avowed enemy of that party. Republicans look carefully at the fac decide which candidate is justly entitled to Primary Election on August 29th. UNIFORM HISTORY FOR ELEMENTARY SCHOOLS Valuable Work Just Issued From the State Printing Office The new introductory history for the elementary schools of California, one of the free text books issued by the state board of education under the California free text book law, has come from the presses of the state printing office and will be ready for distribution for the fall term of schools. The book is based on Mace's Introductory history, published by Rand, McNally & Co., and is printed by the state under a royalty. The book is well printed and bound and a credit to the state printery. The original text has met with considerable change at the hands of the state board and educational commissioners. A number of errors in historical statements were discovered and corrected, and fully forty pages of additional matter added. For instance the story of woman and their influence from the earliest days was written in; a chapter on western development, transportation, etc., was added; the account of the civil war was rewritten and better balanced; a chapter was given over to a period of expansion; the Spanish-American war and the acquisition of the Phillippines and the building of the Panama canal. In fact the history was revised and made more correct and complete, so that it brings our modern history down to date, and does not end with the civil war as did the original text. Besides these changes a wonderfully valuable addition for California is a brochure on California history written by Percy F. Valentine, of the San Francisco normal school and edited by HIGHWAL COMMISSION MAKES ANNUAL REPORT Nearly Fifteen Thousand Dollars Expended During Year R. J. McFadden, N. T. Edwards and W. T.

Of this amount $2,428 was invested in equipment, the most of which is serviceable for future use, and $5,900 was spent on repairs of concrete pavement and damage caused directly by excessive floods of last winter. Deducting the above items less depreciation, leaves $6550 expended on ordinary miscellaneous maintenance and repairs of 135 miles of paved roads or an average of $4850 per mile. While this amount has been held down to such a nominal sum for the last year an equal amount will not be sufficient for this year, owing to the fact that a portion of the paved roads included in the above mentioned 135 miles were not completed until the latter part of the year and some are now in course of construction, which will increase the mileage. It probably will be advisable to provide for a larger expenditure in the future in the way of betterment of the shoulders on sandy soils. The bituminous protecting coat used for surfacing has proved more satisfactory and permanent than was first anticipated. Very little will be required for renewal work along that line perhaps for the next two years. "All kinds" of power RED CROWN GASOLINE Because it's a refined gasoline—not a mixture.
