SPEAKERS START ADVERTISING CAMPAIGN INTERESTING ADDRESSES DELIVERED AT BUSINESS MEN'S LUNCHEON THURSDAY ONE HUNDRED BANQUETERS HEAR ENCOMIUMS PASSED UPON ANAHEIM AND ITS ENTERPRISE Numerous bouquets were handed to Anaheim by the several speakers at the business men's luncheon on Thursday. A. B. McCord was the toastmaster, appointed at the previous meeting, and he had provided a splendid program. It had been announced that D. M. Linnard of Pasadena, proprietor of the Hotel Green, the Hotel Maryland and the Hotel Huntington, would be the speaker, but he found it impossible to attend and sent in his stead Edward K. Hoke, Pacific Coast manager of the Doubleday Publishing house. After Mr. McCord had made a few appropriate and interesting remarks in calling the meeting to order at the close of the luncheon, he introduced Mr. Hoke, who said: “If a man does not make acquaintances as he advances through life, he will soon find himself alone—a man should keep his friendships in a constant state of repair. This will not only apply to a man personally, but will also apply to your identical business, as well as to any community, and will certainly apply to Southern California board of Supervisors, J. C. Metzgar, and R. L. Bisby have been very active in this temporary organization and hope to have them included in the permanent organization when it is formed. We also hope to enlist other influential members in your county. “With these remarks, gentlemen, I wish, again, to thank you for the invitation to meet this influential body of Anaheim business men, and I assure you of the hearty co-operation of whatever organization may be formed for the advertising of Southern California.” J. P. Baumgartner, editor of the Santa Ana Register, was next introduced. Mr. Baumgartner’s address was necessarily brief, but it was to the point. He endorsed the scheme outlined by Mr. Hoke, and believed the pamphlet system of advertising was a waste of money as two-thirds of them were never read. The speaker said he made frequent trips through the various sections of the state, and wherever he went he heard complimentary things said of Anaheim. The business men of Anaheim are enterprising and up-to-date. It was a great undertaking he declared, cutting down the fronts of buildings in order to widen one of the principal business streets. R. L. Bisby, who is one of the foremost boosters in the Southland, was of the opinion that Anaheim was one of the most progressive towns in the world. “When I see you cutting off eight feet from the front of blocks of business houses, in order to widen a street, when I view your splendid new buildings for banks and other business purposes, when I see your magnificent new hotel, your beautiful ornamental lights and your paved streets, and all the other improvements that are of recent date, I understand that you are moved with the spirit that built the world. What we look like to ourselves is of little consequence, it is the way we look in the eyes of other people that counts. When people from other few appropriate and interesting remarks in calling the meeting to order at the close of the luncheon, he introduced Mr. Hoke, who said: "If a man does not make acquaintances as he advances through life, he will soon find himself alone—a man should keep his friendships in a constant state of repair. This will not only apply to a man personally, but will also apply to your identical business, as well as to any community, and will certainly apply to Southern California, as well as each individual county in that section. "A great deal has been said regarding efficiency, thrift, co-operation—mighty big words when properly diagnosed—and the words of Abraham Lincoln, 'United we stand; divided we fall' should be considered very carefully in our plans for the future of Southern California. In order to make a success of this section and get the right kind of farmers, manufacturers, investors and tourists, it is absolutely necessary that we co-operate with each other. "For example, it is necessary for the farmers of your section to unite for civic and rural betterment. You have abundance of pure water, at low cost, natural gas, oil for fuel, railroad connections, and land particularly adapted to the growing of Valencia oranges, walnuts, sugar beets and beans, probably the most productive and nearly frostless of any section in Southern California. You have also your share of industries, such as sugar plant, beef and provision plant, and orange packing houses, as well as the various fruit companies who are economically organized. You may consistently invite the right kind of home seekers, manufacturers, investors and tourists to your section and it would be almost impossible to exaggerate regarding your wonderful resources. "Nine years ago, I advocated the gospel of good roads for Southern California, and made the first contribution to that fund. The Pasadena Chamber of Commerce sent out postals to the different public spirited people in that section, inquiring as to their stand on a bond issue for good roads, and it was gratifying to learn, at that time, of the majority of people being in favor of this plan. Then, I went over to the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce and arranged the financing of a similar plan, postals were sent to its members, with like results. Mr. R. W. Pridham, chairman of the board of supervisors of Los Angeles county took these cards to Sacramento, and with his co-workers, was instrumental in starting this good roads proposition. It is not necessary for me to go into detail and tell you business men what it has meant to Southern California. "For the past three or four years, I have had in mind a cooperative advertising campaign, to advertise Southern California as a whole, and several weeks ago, the first volley was fired by the double page spread in the Saturday Evening Post. The first $10-" STATE HIGHWAY WILL SOON BE WIDENED Work of Building Shoulders on Road South of Santa Ana to Begin First of Year Just as soon after January 1, 1917, as weather conditions permit, the work of building shoulders on the state highway between Santa Ana and the street, when I view your splendid new buildings for banks and other business purposes, when I see your magnificent new hotel, your beautiful ornamental lights and your paved streets, and all the other improvements that are of recent date. I understand that you are moved with the spirit that built the world. What we look like to ourselves is of little consequence, it is the way we look in the eyes of other people that counts. When people from other sections come to Anaheim and see what is doing here they know that the town is alive, and that the people are animated by a spirit of progress. You have a number of enterprises and improvements that you have no right to—they should have gone to Santa Ana, and I am cramling it down the throats of the Santa Ana people that you are getting many things we ought to have." Mr. Bisby stated that Los Angeles was the great melting pot or distributing point of the South, and we should cooperate with that city in getting home seekers and sight seers to come there. The balance of the country would get its share after the visitors reached Los Angeles. Although Secretary Duckworth had promised J. C. Metzgar that he would eliminate his name from the list of speakers that gentleman was forced to make a few remarks defending himself against the statements of Bisby, who had invited all Anaheim to attend a banquet at Santa Ana and tell the county seat people how to boost. The entire bill of expense, Bisby declared would be paid by Metzgar. It was one of the most interesting sessions given since the custom was established, and was particularly gratifying to the one hundred business men present because of the compliments passed upon their efforts to improve Anaheim during the past two years. Herman Stern was appointed as toastmaster at today's meeting, and it is safe to prophesy that he will dish up something good.

AT DICKEL'S had charge of the construction of the shoulders from Santa Ana to Fullerton, has sent in estimates for construction work south of Santa Ana and will cost between $60,000 and $75,000. While the entire work as outlined in Spellmeyer’s estimates may not be reached during the next year, it is certain that a great deal of it will be authorized at an early date. State Highway Commissioner Darlington of Los Angeles, who has taken an especial interest in the placing of shoulders on the state highway through this county, stated recently that shoulders would be built as soon as money was available. According to Spellmeyer’s recommendations between half and two-thirds of the thirty-five miles between Santa Ana and the county line on the south will have three foot shoulders placed upon each side of the state highway. The paved strip is fifteen feet wide. The shoulders will add six feet to the strip used in travel. From Santa Ana southward for nine miles the highway will be shouldered practically solid. The rest of the way southward to the county line shoulders will be placed wherever they are needed. One will be needed in places where the dirt shoulders have proven inadequate for the heavy traffic to which the highway has been subjected in the last year. The need of shoulders depends considerable upon the character of soil on the sides of the highway. It is proposed to complete the paving of the state road below Serra, where paving was not done when the rest of the road was paved. The delay maintenance funds from the state will be available. CHANGES IN LAW NEEDED Sweeping changes in the laws relating to the National Guard of California must be made at the next session of the legislature, according to Colonel J. J. Borree, Acting Adjunct General since the resignation of Adjunt General Charles A. Thomas, now on the border. The federal law passed at the last session of Congress, which reorganized the militia by placing it on a pay basis and requiring that members take the federal oath, made radical alterations in the state laws necessary. The federal laws takes precedence over state statutes, rendering them void. Not only will the California laws have to be remodeled, but large additional appropriations will be needed, according to Colonel Boree, who has not, however, prepared his estimates of amounts which will be asked. Details of legislation and appropriations required will be announced before the legislature convenes. HERE’S A REAL GHOST “The phantom of El Monte,” an almost ghost like spirit with a red and white lantern, who a year ago baffled railroad detectives of the Southern Pacific, again appeared early last week.

WILLIAMS, Clerk One will be needed in places where the dirt shoulders have proven inadequate for the heavy traffic to which the highway has been subjected in the last year. The need of shoulders depends considerable upon the character of soil on the sides of the highway. It is proposed to complete the paving of the state road below Serra, where paving was not done when the rest of the road was paved. The delay was considered necessary in order to give the filled sub-base time to settle. The shoulders that Spellmeyer placed between Santa Ana and Fullerton have up splendidly. A few days ago the engineer was asked by the Santa Ana officials for his specifications so that they might be used upon West Fifth street inside the city limits. Spellmeyer stated that he varied his specifications according to soil conditions. He considers that the best job of shoulder making that he has put through was that between Anaheim and Fullerton, and there he used specifications that had not hitherto been used. He thoroughly filled the heavy broken rock with fine broken rock, before the asphaltum was applied, and those shoulders have been giving as near perfect satisfaction as it is possible for shoulders to give. "Just when and where we begin work to the south depends upon weather conditions," said Spellmeyer. "If we have a lot of wet weather we will have to delay shouldering the stretch below Tustin. That stretch of adobe cannot be worked successfully when it is wet." The state already has a portion of the rock delivered for the shoulders to the south. Plans to build the shoulders this year had to be given up because there was not money available for the purpose. On January 1 HERE'S A REAL GHOST "The phantom of El Monte," an almost ghost like spirit with a red and white lantern, who a year ago baffled railroad detectives of the Southern Pacific, again appeared early last week. The apparition flagged two trains between El Monte and Savannah but disappeared before train crews could reach the spot of the flagging. About a year ago railroad officials were sorely tried by the continual flagging of fast night train. While the authorities believe the flagging is the work of a man who is possessed of a mania, section hands and some of the train crews do not accept this theory. They repeat the story told a year ago when Juan Garcia was decapitated by a switch engine.
