SANTA VISITS ALL THE ANAHEIM CHURCHES
SPLENDID ENTERTAINMENTS GIVEN AT THE VARIOUS PLACES OF WORSHIP
IMPRESSIVE SERVICES HELD AT ST. BONIFACE CHURCH SUNDAY MORNING
In addition to the municipal tree Christmas services were held at nearly all churches in Anaheim, but they were not given on the same dates. In fact, the festivities are not yet over, as St. Michael's will unveil a tree tonight which will be loaded with presents for the little folks.
At St. Boniface church there was no tree, but there were three services in the morning, mass at 5 and 8 o'clock and solemn high mass at 10, at which time Father Dubbel delivered a splendid sermon, based upon the first chapter of St. John. Excellent music was spread and its sons and daughters far and near reverently cherish its memory and in loving benediction pronounce its name.
"Gratitude to God then, may a continuance of these gifts and unruffled harmony be heaven's Christmas box to us all."
At the Lutheran church the program was all rendered in the German language. There was a Christmas tree bending under its weight of beautiful presents, but the young folks rendered an excellent program of music and recitations before Santa Claus got busy and began distributing the presents. This was held Saturday night, and although it was storming outside the church was crowded.
There was also an enjoyable program at the Christian church, Mrs. A. B. Markle being in charge. After the songs and recitations a series of tableaux was given. "The Holy Family" "The Adoring Shepherds" and "Christ in the Temple at 12 years of age," were reproduced. Many compliments were heard of the program and especially of the tableaux. After a few remarks by Rev. Markle, "the youngest boy in the Sunday School," as Mrs. Markle remarked when calling upon him, Santa Claus made his appearance and after greeting all the children in merry style he proceeded to call of the presents upon the tree. Candy and apples were distributed to the child-
HAWAII IN A BEAUTEOUSE EXTOL
JUDGE W. H. THOMAS ANA GRAPHICALLY HIS RECENT
MANY LADIES AND LISTEN WITH IN WORD PICTURE OUS ISLU
A large crowd of busi- accompanied by their Judge Thomas at the eon on Thursday. He toastmaster and introductory county jurist in his manner.
The Judge had been of his recent trip to tands and a large crowd him.
Judge Thomas in exner told of the many ydents of his trip, whi
ly all churches in Anaheim, but they were not given on the same dates. In fact, the festivities are not yet over, as St. Michael's will unveil a tree tonight which will be loaded with presents for the little folks.
At St. Boniface church there was no tree, but there were three services in the morning, mass at 5 and 8 o'clock and solemn high mass at 10, at which time Father Dubbel delivered a splendid sermon, based upon the first chapter of St. John. Excellent music was also furnished by a choir of a dozen voices, accompanied by several instruments. The soloists in the choir were Mrs. E. P. De La Hunt and Mrs. Ray Fisher. The orchestra was under the direction of Miss Morgan, who with Miss Matters and Miss Rimpau played first violin, while Prof. Nitschke and Miss Lucas played second. Miss Ouellet was harpist, Mrs. Manjoks cellist, and Miss M. Rimpau organist.
In a crypt at one side of the altar was a representation of the scene in the khan at Bethlehem in Judea where Christ was born. The child was lying on his bed of straw while Joseph and Mary kneeled on either side of the cradle. The three wise men—the Ethiopian, the Athenian and the Hindoo, bearing gifts of gold, incense and myrrh, were standing by the side. Peasants were also present, and mild-eyed cattle, sheep and donkeys surrounded the cradle and were gazing at the infant. These figures were all made of wax and came from Munich, Germany. Before beginning his sermon Father Dubbel delivered the following Christmas greeting to his congregation:
"The Gospel, the tidings of joy first thrilled the air in the silvery strain of the angelic chorus in the silent and holy night, when Bethlehem's hills rebounded heaven's delight on earth. A message from Jehovah. The encircling gloom gives way 'Let there be light' for this light is the splendor of the Father—the Ward Incarnate. For forty centuries man did tremble when God spake, a new era dawns, confidence vibrates the bosom of man and in ectacsy of delight gives expression in humanity's first adorers, 'Let us go over to Bethlehem and let us see this word that is come to pass, which the Lord hath showed to us.'"
"We of twenty centuries afterward feel the magnetic influence of the star and today love to return to Bethlehem and recall the things that came to pass. The epitome of life is to give all churches in Anaheim, but they were not given on the same dates. In fact, the festivities are not yet over, as St. Michael's will unveil a tree tonight which will be loaded with presents for the little folks.

At St. Boniface church an entertainment was given Friday evening. The church was beautifully decorated, and each class in the Sunday school had a part in the program. Each class in the school presented "Gifts to the King," which is to be used for missionary work.
A Christmas Pageant was given at the M.E. church Sunday night. It was in the nature of a drama, telling the ever-interesting story of the birth of Christ, and was given mostly by the children. Colored lights were thrown on the scene making it a very interesting entertainment.
Many private families had Christmas trees. Santa Claus was a busy man in Anaheim this Christmas season.

Steal Ford Belonging to D.M.Wilson
Of Buena Park—Bound Over
For Trial
City Marshal Kellenberger returned from Fresno a few days ago with A.C.Anderson and Dan Goodan who are charged with the theft of an auto belonging to D.M.Wilson of Buena Park. The two men were here last week and it is said had their eyes on a roadster standing in front of the city hall, which they intended to steal. They went into the police station evidently to get the lay of the land, and conversed with the marshal and others there. They evidently changed their minds as to the theft of the roadster and proceeding down the street made away with Wilson's Ford standing on West Center street. The police on learning of the theft sent warnings to Los Angeles and other cities and the culprits were later overhauld at Fresno. They endeavored to sell the machine but could not give satisfactory answers to their questions.

Wealth and territories, Croesus and Caesars have possessed, but gold has tarnished and thrones been ground unto dust. Bethlehem's Babe teaches humility, loveliness in poverty, forbearance and charity.

Fertility of soil, beauty of scenery, mildness of climate, charms of a serene sky are a few of nature's favors.

Marshal Kellenberger was notified and proceeded north after the men. They were arraigned before Justice Howard Friday afternoon and bound over to the Superior court for trial. Anderson has a prior charge against him at Fresno and no doubt will be easily convicted. Goodan is comparatively unknown.
WALTER JOHNSON IS NOT ON THE MARKET
Walter Johnson will not be sold for any amount of money; according to Clark Griffith,. He says he has no intention of selling his star pitcher to the world's champions or any other team.
In the event Walter Johnson should be sold, they might just as well close down the ball park at Washington. He is the main drawing card there and with him gone the fans would not come out. It would be the same as taking Ty Cobb off the Detroit team. The Moguls could not afford to do so.
Mr. and Mrs. C. Amberg had as Christmas guests Mrs. Ella Morris of Los Angeles, mother of Mrs. Amberg, and Mr. and Mrs. George Smith of Fontana. They were treated to a turkey dinner and also enjoyed a Christmas tree.

HAWAII IN ALL HER BEAUTEOUSNESS EXTOLLED
JUDGE W. H. THOMAS OF SANTA ANA GRAPHICALLY TELLS OF HIS RECENT TRIP
MANY LADIES AND GENTLEMEN LISTEN WITH INTEREST TO WORD PICTURE OF FAMOUS ISLANDS
A large crowd of business men, some accompanied by their wives greeted Judge Thomas at the noonday lunch-eon on Thursday. Herman Stern was toastmaster and introduced the Orange county jurist in his usual felicitous manner.
The Judge had been invited to tell of his recent trip to the Hawaiian Islands and a large crowd was out to hear him.
Judge Thomas in entertaining manner told of the many pleasurable incidents of his trip, which he said was car's seating capacity is filled it proceeds along its way and no more passengers are allowed to enter, and the price remains the same. The Judge told of one instance, when he was about to take passage on a boat from one island to another, he found he was an hour and ten minutes late in catching the boat. He was extremely anxious to take passage upon that steamer, as the trip otherwise, in a round about way, would entail considerable extra cost. He having reserved passage upon the boat, and the owners being aware of his predicament, they held the boat until the Judge arrived, he in the meantime being driven hastily in an automobile to catch the waiting passenger steamer. The Judge was agreeably surprised when he learned that the boat was being held for him, which had been done by the owners without his request or solicitation. It was an accommodation. The Judge declares it was a spirit of cooperation that prompted them.
Judge Thomas, while his time was limited, did not go into any details upon the many pleasurable events of his trip, saying that if he did he would talk from now on until the morrow and then would not be half through. The speaker said that while he loved his home at Santa Ana, and loved Orange county and the great United States, still if he was to make a trifuted to ering a cover is first by the thou rounded th.

Judge Thomas at the noonday lunch on Thursday. Herman Stern was toastmaster and introduced the Orange county jurist in his usual felicitous manner.
The Judge had been invited to tell of his recent trip to the Hawaiian Islands and a large crowd was out to hear him.
Judge Thomas in entertaining manner told of the many pleasurable incidents of his trip, which he said was one of the most helpful and beneficial he has ever enjoyed. The speaker prefaced his remarks by saying that when he was ready to sail from San Pedro harbor for the Hawaiian Islands, the rain was descending in torrents, and the Judge was almost persuaded to back out, believing that the elements were shedding tears of remorse on account of his contemplated departure. But later, just before the steamer weighed anchor, Judge Thomas said he met a very intimate friend, and to him he stated the premonition he just experienced and said he had half a mind to forsake the journey and return to his home in Santa Ana. The good friend, however, dispelled that idea by assuring the popular jurist that the rain drops falling were tears of joy, expressive of the Judge's many friends' feelings—the being glad for having him out of the way for a few weeks at least. Of course, the Judge's many friends present know he was jesting.
Judge Thomas said the trip on the water was most enjoyable, he having met many people who proved to congenial friends and all, after becoming acquainted, felt as though they had known each other for years. Judge Thomas is a man who does not stand for formalities and believes the way to make people happy is to get acquainted, when journeying among strangers. While seated at the dinner table Judge Thomas took the initiative and introduced himself at meal time to those who sat at his elbows, and in turn saw that everyone at his table were introduced to one another.
In that way all knew each other and their table gained the title of being the most jolly of any in the steamer's spacious dining room, and consequently the trip proved thoroughly enjoyable. Various forms of amusement were accorded the passengers, and there was not a dull moment on the entire trip. It was the spirit of cooperation into which the people entered, that made the trip successful and the Judge decompiled by them wives greeted Judge Thomas at the noonday lunch on Thursday.

Judge Thomas, while his time was limited, did not go into any details upon the many pleasurable events of his trip, saying that if he did he would talk from now on until the morrow and then would not be half through. The speaker said that while he loved his home at Santa Ana, and loved Orange county and the great United States, still if he was to make a change he would certainly take up his residence on one of the famed Hawaiian islands. It rains there considerably, but one delights in the warmth of the sun glow as the rain passes, leaving a brightness of color and radiance of rainbows that are truly wonderful to behold. There is no other place on earth where similar climatic conditions exist and Judge Thomas said he never tires in telling of them. During his few short weeks spent upon the Islands he was accorded the utmost hospitality but when the High Sheriff sent word he wanted to see him the amiable judge said he began to experience strange feelings, not knowing what was wanted. He said he knew he had defrauded no one, had been true to his wife and children, and for the life of him could not figure out what the sheriff was after. Upon meeting that official, who has charge of each sheriff of each island, of which there are eight, he was happy to learn that the officer wanted to show him their prisons, which by the way are conducted along lines far ahead of our own. Judge Thomas paid a brief visit to the penal institutions and was amazed at the advancement of Hawaiians have made in caring for their charges. While all countries have their vicious elements, the dependents on the islands are zealously guarded and are given every inducement to reform and while confined in the institutions the conditions surrounding them, it is said, could be patterned after by many like institutions in the United States with profit, from many points of view, morally and otherwise.
Judge Thomas was impressed with the children of the islands, little Japanese totals of five or six years of age, go to school at 7 o'clock in the morning and on the way are classed as gloom chasers, such cheery dispositions they have. They remain in the various schools until 6 in the evening, when they go home, and are not in the Christmas cheer were distributed to the army of children that surrounded the municipal tree Saturday night, and the multitude of little folks who came, saw and received presents, returned home satisfied that Santa Claus was a sure enough personage, because they had beheld him with their own eyes. R. E. Corcoran made an ideal Santa. He looked the part and acted the part to perfection. He passed through the crowd greeting the hundreds of children personally, enquiring about their past conduct and learned that they were all good—everyone of them, and each was deserving of a present.
The Christmas tree was a thing of beauty. It was nearly thirty feet in height. It came from the Royer place, being presented to the committee by Capt. Walter Amstutz. The committee having charge of the matter consisted of R. E. Corcoran, F. K. Gresswell, A. Bayliss and George Bishop. After it was put in place on the vacant ground opposite the city hall, Gresswell was appointed a committee of one to decorate it, and he did an artistic job. It was surmounted with the star of Bethlehem, and dozens of colored lights were hung on its branches, mingling with the bright colors of the season and the presents. Three thousand people surrounded the tree, the grown-ups enjoying the entertainment as much as the kiddies, although Santa ignored them in distributing his presents.
The Anaheim band was expected to be present and help make music but several members found it impossible to get away from their business. The band was not missed, however. It was not needed to draw crowd, and there was plenty of good music without it. Schmidt's orchestra, augmented with a number of good musicians, opened the program and rendered a couple of excellent selections. Those composing the orchestra were F. W. Schmidt violin, C. I. Meacham violin, Mr. Herdferger violin, Allee Adams violin, Otto Krastel violin, Milton Corcoran violin, Mrs. E. H. Adams piano, Lucille Davis saxaphone, and Reginald White cornet. With such an array of talent it is hardly necessary to state that the music was first class.
Eddie Backs, one of Anaheim's most popular songsters, volunteered to assist and sang a couple of songs that were exceedingly popular. The first was "The Old Home," in which she author recalled the scenes of his childhood back east, and responding to an encore he gave the audience "I Love."
and in turn saw that everyone at his table were introduced to one another.
In that way all knew each other and their table gained the title of being the most jolly of any in the steamer's spacious dining room, and consequently the trip proved thoroughly enjoyable. Various forms of amusement were accorded the passengers, and there was not a dull moment on the entire trip. It was the spirit of cooperation into which the people entered, that made the trip successful and the Judge declared forcibly that upon that magic word depends the success of any body of citizens, be it city, state or national.
Arriving at Honolulu Judge Thomas stood amazed at the wonders there to be seen, the vegetation being something to attract the wonder of all. Acres of ferns, the most beautiful, he ever saw, abound upon the islands in riotous profusion. They are truly beautiful, the bushes in some instances standing from twenty to thirty feet high. Sugar cane grows everywhere and the mills are kept going almost the entire year in the production of sugar. The natives of Hawaii are making great strides in the way of advanced civilization and are in some instances, in the way of civic improvements, ahead of some of our boasted commonwealths. Judge Thomas paid a visit to four of the group of eight that comprise the Hawaiian islands and everywhere was impressed with the progressive spirit encountered. The people there commingle in the most friendly way, the several different nationalities cooperating in all their business dealings, and believe in the maxim, do unto others as you would like to have others do unto you, and their daily dealings amply prove the proverb.. The service corporations conduct their business along the same lines and there are no strap hangers in the street cars. When a
Judge Thomas was impressed with the children of the islands, little Japanese tots of five or six years of age, go to school at 7 o'clock in the morning and on the way are classed as gloom chasers, such cheery dispositions they have. They remain in the various schools until 6 in the evening, when they go home, and are not in the least fatigued. The Japanese men and women of Hawaii are taught to work and save their money, and not to send it back to Japan. They are taught to make their new homes by adoption, their permanent homes, and are rearing themselves upon independent lines. In other words they are becoming more Americanized, and Judge Thomas sees no peril to us therein.
In closing the speaker said the spirit of cooperation is everywhere apparent upon the Island which is most commendable. He sees the same spirit manifest in our noonday lunchons when business men get their feet under the same table and indulge in the interchange of ideas—that is cooperation.
For the edification of the ladies present Judge Thomas told of the dress of the women of the island. In ultra society, when a woman considered herself really dressed in the height of fashion, she wore a motherhubbard. These dresses are made of the finest fabrics, are comfortable garments and nothing indicative of the 20th century creations one may see upon many of the streets of our American cities today.
Judge Thomas paid a visit to an active volcano three miles inland, and was awestricken at its mysteriousness, believing, perhaps that there was really such a thing as hell's fire and brimstone. He said he saw the fire and coran violin, Mrs. E. H. Adams piano, Lucille Davis saxaphone, and Reginald White cornet. With such an array of talent it is hardly necessary to state that the music was first class.
Eddie Backs, one of Anaheim's most popular songsters, volunteered to assist and sang a couple of songs that were exceedingly popular. The first was "The Old Home," in which the author recalled the scenes of his childhood back east, and responding to an encore he gave the audience "I Love You, California," a large portion of the audience joining in the chorus.
The Temple Square Quartette was crippled when Henry Braden moved away some months ago, but Heinle, who now lives in Oakland will be pleased to note that the vacancy is ably filled by G. N. Anderson of the Mason theatre. This quartette connoised from out of respecter. Judge E. Anaheim U.S. in town Fraser from San Antonio's meeting poned from out of respecter. Judge E. Anaheim U.S. in town Fraser from San Antonio's meeting poned from out of respecter.
Judge Thomas thanked the citizens of Anaheim for the honor conferred upon him upon this occasion and hoped the time would come when he could come again and talk upon the many beauties of Hawaii.
Judge Thomas reluctantly took his departure for home, so pleasant had been his short visit, and returned in time to cast his vote at the recent national election, even if it did not go the way he desired it should.
It was announced that Homer G. Ames will be toastmaster at today's luncheon. Mr. Aames has arranged to have Albert Stephens, city attorney of Los Angeles, make an address. Mr. Stephens is a forceful and entertaining speaker and no doubt a large crowd will be out to hear him.
Smelled the smoke and could almost hear the old man shovelling in the coal. Other volcanoes, now extinct, were also seen, and in one instance a hotel has been built upon the brink of one of them. Many tourists are attracted there out of curiosity.

Judge Thomas reluctantly took his departure for home, so pleasant had been his short visit, and returned in time to cast his vote at the recent national election, even if it did not go the way he desired it should.
It was announced that Homer G. Ames will be toastmaster at today's luncheon. Mr. Aames has arranged to have Albert Stephens, city attorney of Los Angeles, make an address. Mr. Stephens is a forceful and entertaining speaker and no doubt a large crowd will be out to hear him.

All the musis was first class and was appreciated by the thousands of people who surrounded the tree.
At the municipal tree a year ago there was a shortage of presents, but the committee determined this year that there would be enough to satisfy all the children. The board of trade appropriated one hundred dollars for the purpose, and many donations were made by charitable persons who believe that children of all nationalities and every degree are entitled to one happy day in the year.
Those who contributed personal service to the cause without money and without price, in addition to the committee mentioned above, were Edward Backs, Arthur Cannon, the F. W. Schmidt orchestra, the Temple Square quartette, the Anaheim Truck and Transfer company, the Griffith Lumber company and Stephen Kistler. The city trustees also gave the lights free of charge. The people who contributed to the occasion, otherwise than by personal service were Manager Mozart of the Grand, Pete Nicolas, Paul Nicolas, Herman Noll, H. A. Dickel, W. W.

PROTECTION FOR UP-THE-RIVER DISTRICT
RICHFIELD-YORBA PEOPLE ARE MAKING RAPID PROGRESS WITH THE WORK
AN 8002-FOOT APPROACH, 7 FEET HIGH AND 36 FEET WIDE IS COMPLETED AT BRIDGE
Protection work on the river in the Richfield-Yorba district is progressing rapidly. The following work is reported as completed: An 800 foot grade 7 feet high, 26 feet wide on the top has been put in at the approach to the old Yorba bridge site which is protected by a double row of piling and 33 wires thereon and along the north bank of the river at places that were considered most subject to overflow 2500 feet of 30 foot piles, penetrating the ground 24 feet have been put in and 30 barbed wires put on the same, beginning two feet below the surface of the ground and extending

All these people are gratefully remembered by the board of trade committee.
The special committee appointed by the board of trade to arrange for the Christmas tree, consisting of Messrs. Robt. Corcoran, Fred Gresswell, A. Bayliss and George Bishop, are especially entitled to credit for making the time honored festival a success. Well filled cornucopias were generously handed out to the children who thronged about the Christmas tree and Santa Claus saw to it that no one was overlooked. Several days ahead of time through the efforts of the committee men baskets of fruit and boxes of candy were collected and placed in readiness for distribution. A generous supply of goodies was sent to the little orphans at St Catherine's academy.
Under the direction of Engineer Adams the power house force on Friday interwove a number of electric wires, to which globes had been attached throughout the giant Christmas tree. The globes were of variegated colors and when lighted gave the tree an inspiring appearance. The light in the large reflector upon the front of the motor truck, kept in the engine room across the street, was thrown upon the tree by Cooney Mauerhan while Santa Claus was gladdening the hearts of the kiddies and grown-ups Saturday evening, thereby brilliantly illuminating the tree completely to its apex;
Mr. Corcoran took great delight in seeing that everything was in readiness and had the tree decorated beautifully. Mr. Corcoran had his children in from their home south of town early Saturday morning helping to fill the bags of candy and apples which were handed out during the evening, and they materially helped their father in this way in the preliminary preparation.

ported as completed: An 800 foot grade 7 feet high, 26 feet wide on the top has been put in at the approach to the old Yorba bridge site which is protected by a double row of piling and 33 wires thereon and along the north bank of the river at places that were considered most subject to overflow 2500 feet of 30 foot piles, penetrating the ground 24 feet have been put in and 30 barbed wires put on the same, beginning two feet below the surface of the ground and extending 5 feet above and considerable work is yet to be done.
A force of men are now at work putting in braces and brush and rock is to be put in between the double row of pilling which protects the grade at the Yorba bridge and brush and a dike is to be put in behind all piling and wire that has been completed and the river bed will be cleaned of all brush and debris from the Yorba bridge to the Santa Fe railroad bridge on the Richfield-Olive line.
According to surveys and specifications made and arrived at by engineers employed by this district, if this protection work had not been put in and completed and heavy floods should come as occurred last winter the course of the river would in all probability change from its present bed to the old sand wash through Richfield and north and west of Anaheim and remain there permanently as the present bed of the river is considerable higher than the ground through this district.
The Richfield-Yorba river protection district contains but about 900 acres which was assessed for river protection and much credit should be given to the Richfield-Yorba chamber of commerce and the committee, R. J. Scott, G. F. Collins and B. M. Yorba, appointed by them for the energetic and business like methods used in carrying on this work.
Considerable money is yet needed to complete this work and liberal donations should be given by all property owners and citizens within the territory that would be affected by damage caused by the overflow of the flood waters from the Santa Ana river from the points being protected by this work.

RUNAWAY COUPLE
Rides With Them In Jitney, Gives Them the Good Old Fatherly Dope
Judge E. E. Keech, attorney for the Anaheim Union Water company, was in town Friday afternoon, coming over from Santa Ana to attend a directors' meeting, which had been postponed from the preceding Saturday out of respect to the late Mr. Crowther. Judge Keech rode over in a jitney with a young runaway couple from Los Angeles, who had been denied a marriage license by County Clerk Williams, because the young people were under age. A moment before the runaway couple appeared in the clerk's office, Williams received a telephone message from the mother of the would-be bridegroom, who gave his name as Garner Miller, advising him that she objected to her son's marriage. When Miller and his young lady love appeared and asked for a license Williams unfeelingly refused to issue one to them, saying that the boy's mother had made objections, and he would have to take the old lady's word for it. Miller produced a chauffeur's license showing that he was 21 but Williams replied that he would have to follow mother's advice.
As the youthful couple walked away from the courthouse they met Judge Keech, who was waiting for a car. Miller asked where the nearest county clerk could be found, saying that nationally Mr. Corcoran had his children in from their home south of town early Saturday morning helping to fill the bags of candy and apples which were handed out during the evening, and they materially helped their father in this way in the preliminary preparation.
County Clerk Williams had refused to issue a marriage license to them.
Keech informed the love-lorn swain that the nearest county clerk outside of Santa Ana was at Riverside. A car came along and Keech and the young people entered and proceeded to this city.
Keech entered into conversation with them on the way over, saying that he had practiced law for 30 years and that most of all the divorce cases which had come under his observation were due to hasty marriages.
"I have raised a family of three girls and three boys," he said, "and I always take an interest in young people, especially those about to get married. My advice to you is that if you truly love one another, and are desirous of being wedded, that you return to your homes and wait until you come of age. Your parents object to your marriage, and if you love one another you can wait until you obtain their consent."
Keech dilated upon the misery following illegal marriages and informed them that if they were wedded, their marriage would be illegal and that a long train of misery would follow them as a result of their hasty union. His eloquence soon had them going, and the tear dimmed eyes of the would-be bride, indicated that she had repented of her hasty action and would return to her home.
As Keech alighted from the car in this city he bade the young couple good bye, and said to them that they had better continue on their way to their homes in Los Angeles rather than to Riverside.
