PERPETUAL CARE SYSTEM FOR CEMETERY BERT SIMPSON OUTLINES PLAN BEFORE BOARD OF TRADE MONDAY NIGHT LARGE MEETING TO BE HELD • JULY 7 TO PERFcCT ORGANIZATION The Board of Trade held its regular session Monday evening. V. U. Simpson addressed the meeting in reference to putting the Anaheim cemetery under perpetual care. There will be a meeting of citizens on July 7, at the Board of Trade, rooms, to discuss means whereby this may be accomplished. Attorney Amos will advise the meeting as to the law as it pertains to the perpetual care system, which is growing into favor throughout the state. It is the intention to reclaim many of the old streets in the cemetery and put them in shape so that they may be used for burial plats. Lawns will be planted and the grounds will be beautified and made a credit to the city. Lots can be sold, The membership committee are to give the matter urgent attention and see if ways cannot be derived to replenish the exchequer. Secretary Whitaker said that owing to other matters needing financial assistance the Board of Trade has been handicapped in its collections for dues. Last November the City Council donated $200 to the Board of Trade for advertising purposes. The Council has the right to make such donations, but the money must be kept in a separate fund for that purpose, and to be used for no other purpose. Through the questioning of Mr. Stern, Secretary Whitaker said he knew of no such fund, all moneys being kept in a general fund. The Board of Trade, from its dues, should be made self-sustaining. The yearly fee is $5 and while the membership now totals 135, there is not much left, after expenses are paid. Secretary Whitaker suggested that all corporations within the city should take out more than one membership. Herman Stern said, "Mr. Secretary, if you only draw your salary, you are not earning it. You must take the lead in boosting new members, the mainsprings of the organization. In other words, brush up your batting average." A communication received from a Los Angeles booster, asking if the local organization was desirous of financing a home products venture. The letter was referred to the Blue on July 7, at the Board of Trade rooms, to discuss means whereby this may be accomplished. Attorney Ames will advise the meeting as to the law as it pertains to the perpetual care system, which is growing into favor throughout the state. It is the intention to reclaim many of the old streets in the cemetery and put them in shape so that they may be used for burial plats. Lawns will be planted and the grounds will be beautified and made a credit to the city. Lots can be sold, Mr. Simpson said, for one-third that which is asked elsewhere, and interest money derived from these sources will be ample for the upkeep of the grounds. The Board of Trade endorsed the plan and will do all within its power in inaugurate the perpetual care system. Mr. Simpson is chairman of the new Board of Directors who have taken over the matter and is earnestly working to place the cemetery in a shape that will be a credit to Anaheim. A. A. Mills of the River Protection committee reported progress in the formation of the district. He said there are a few spots that need ironing out, but that everything looked favorable. Mr. Mills also stated that friction existed among some of the Yorba people relative to the protection district, but he said that the trouble arose owing to a misunderstanding of facts, and that after an explanation everything was going on nicely. Mr. Mills gave a short talk on flood waters, and cited the case of some of the people out west, who are buckling the district, said they are really the ones who should be in for protection. Mr. Mills said flood waters assemble to a great extent in the neighborhood of the Ball road, and then shoot due west into the Stanton section. Some of the protestants to the present district are within the corporate limits of the western town, but according to the speaker, these people by all means should favor the district as at present outlined. Mr. Peck of the Anaheim Phonograph and Music company, was elected as a member of the Board of Trade. Mr. Peck submitted a proposition whereby he is going to give a $40 phonograph to the party who picks out a suitable name for a phonograph which he has manufactured. A committee has been appointed to arrange the details. Mr. Peck is enterprising and his unique plan is meetership. Herman Stern said, "Mr. Secretary, if you only draw your salary, you are not earning it. You must take the lead in boosting new members, the mainsprings of the organization. In other words, brush up your batting average." A communication received from a Los Angeles booster, asking if the local organization was desirous of financing a home products venture. The letter was referred to the Blue Sky committee.

Mr. Peck submitted a proposition whereby he is going to give a $40 phonograph to the party who picks out a suitable name for a phonograph which he has manufactured. A committee has been appointed to arrange the details. Mr. Peck is enterprising and his unique plan is meeting with favor. The result is to be announced later. A committee consisting of Messrs Noll and Gresswell were appointed to interview the city council and ask for a donation for advertising purposes. An invitation was received to attend the monthly meeting of the Associated Chambers of Commerce, which was held at Balboa Wednesday evening. A number of citizens attended, and report having had a nice time. Herman Stern asked the secretary to inform the meeting as to the present state of finances. Secretary Whitaker stated that there remained in the treasury $754.70 from which $20, for bills audited, is to be deducted. On the first of the year there was $718.00 in the treasury. Stern classed that as a backward movement. The Board of Trade has 135 members. Mrs. Stern suggested that there were other things for the secretary to do than draw his salary. More new members must be gained in order to keep the organization going besides old ones must be made to punge up. With the next month's bills coming in, together with the payment of the bill for the new booklet now being prepared, it is said very little money will remain in the treasury. When Mr. and Mrs. Herman Dickel bade good bye to their son Arnold at Goldfield, Nev., two weeks ago, expected to meet him again in a year. Arnold is chief metalligist for the Goldfield Consolidated Mining Co., and his parents and brother, Percy, visited with him for two weeks. He has been in its employ for four years, and now occupies one of the most important positions in that corporation. When Mr. and Mrs. Dickel returned to their home in this city one evening last week, they were surprised to have the front door opened by Arnold, who had come here on a visit, leaving Goldfield some days after his parents' departure. "Are you fired?" was the first question asked by the old man. "No," calmly replied Arnold, "I came to buy a car in Los Angeles, and dropped down here to see you. I did not know that I could get a vacation when you left Goldfield, but here I am, and am going to stay here a week." After leaving Goldfield, Mr. and Mrs. Dickel went to Napa, where they visited friends, and subsequently returned to their home here. Arnold this week purchased an auto in Los Angeles, and expects to make a return trip to Goldfield some time next week. Bert Kuebler's auto collided with a freight train on the Santa Fe Friday with the result that the front of the car was badly damaged. The accident happened at the Broad street crossing. Mr. Kuebler was not injured but he had a narrow escape. The intimation of the men who will be sent here but the government send 30,000 aeroplane it will require a law to manipulate themes of the country will fit these men for the vice. Representatives went down to San Francisco and purchased 20,000 timber for the consignments. This will be handled by The company has a quantity of timber one of the problems is the scarcity of only wood used in American planes and is probable if the comes exhausted as it be found for it. If they are using new wood because they are nothing is so satisfactory President Krause e lumber regions of flintton in a short time to purchase an additional timber. NAHEIM GAZETTE Anaheim, California, Thursday, June 28, 1917 AIRSHIP FACTORY LOGATED IN ANAHEIM HIGH SPEED MACHINE ON IMPROVED FRENCH MODEL WILL. BE MANUFACTURED. COMPANY EXPECTS TO FURNISH THE GOVERNMENT TEN PLANES PER WEEK Anaheim is going to manufacture aeroplanes for the use of the United States aviators in the European war, it was announced Saturday. A company has been formed and incorporated under the name of the California Aircraft Corporation. B. H. Sidnam secured the papers of incorporation Saturday and work on the first plane began Monday. The directors of the company are F. C. Krause, H. A. Krause, C. C Sidnam, B. H. Sidnam and T. L. McFadden. F. C. Krause is president of the company, B. H. Sidnam, vice president and Howard Krause, secretary-treasurer. Negotiations have been in progress with Washington and the company agrees to furnish the government needs the machines it will probably assist in conserving this important material. That "Made In Anaheim" airships will be sailing over Europe dropping bombs on German trenches and hidden batteries, and propelled by "taught in Anaheim" aviators is now a settled fact. With the force the company expects to put to work it will soon be turning out its contract quota of ten machines per week, and they will be rushed to the front as soon as completed. The machine which they will make has been approved by the government experts, and as rapidly as the flyers are completed and tested they will be accepted. PREPARATIONS COMPLETED FOR Y. M. C. A. CAMP Orange County Boys will go to Catalina, July 2 The Orange County Y. M. C. A. will camp for boys this year at Catalina despite the war and rumors of wars. The boys will go to their beautiful camp site Monday morning, July 2, and return July 15. Formerly the camp has been made up of the boys from the two counties, but this year Orange county steps to the front, as it has in several other things, and will run its camp alone. More boys are signed for the trip than ever before, but there is room for about ten more from the county, and those wishing American, at the back miral von Berlitz to Admiral him to the German Dewey's ting of the sequently English ad flagship by American if he fired fire over a fierel navy mean war.

B. H. Sidnam secured the papers of incorporation Saturday and work on the first plane began Monday. The directors of the company are F. C. Krause, H. A. Krause, C. C. Sidnam, B. H. Sidnam and T. L. McFadden. F. C. Krause is president of the company, B. H. Sidnam, vice president and Howard Krause, secretary-treasurer. Negotiations have been in progress with Washington and the company agrees to furnish the government with ten planes per week as soon as the plant is in full operation, which will require a force of one hundred men. Captain M. G. Gordon, who built the plane for the Placentia Home Guard, will be superintendent of construction, assisted by Herb Hogan, a Los-Angeles expert, who has moved his family here, while Charley Newcomb will have charge of the experimenting and testing department. The first machine, it is expected will be ready for the test within fifteen days, but the company allowed itself three weeks. Captain Gordon, who was with the French aviation corps, has adopted the French model for a machine of his own, and added a number of improvements which makes it superior to the standard French aeroplane. Only one model will be made under the government contract, but it is probable that when the company begins building aircraft for private individuals other models will also be adopted. Although representatives of the company decline to state what the contract price is, it is understood that machines of this class sell for 8500. The Anaheim airship will be fitted with a 135 horsepower motor, and is called a speed scout. The offices and headquarters of the company will be at the Sidnam garage on West Center street, and a number of adjoining lots have been leased which will be enclosed with a stockade. A hundred acre tract of land near Placentia has been secured for an aviation field where the machines will be tested. An aviation school will also be established in which young men will be taught the art of flying. The government will furnish the pupils, that is, it will send the men here who enlist for the aviation service, and after they are taught and turned out full-fledged aviators Uncle Sam pays $600 per head for their teaching. It will require an average of one hundred days to trans-camp for boys this year at Catalina despite the war and rumors of wars. The boys will go to their beautiful camp site Monday morning, July 2, and return July 15. Formerly the camp has been made up of the boys from the two counties, but this year Orange county steps to the front, as it has in several other things, and will run its camp alone. More boys are signed for the trip than ever before, but there is room for about ten more from the county, and those wishing to go should phone or write County Secretary Cole at his Orange office. Several new boats, a new stove, a large headquarters tent and other equipment have been added to the camp equipment, and the fine new gasoline launch owned by the Pasadena Y. M. C. A. has been rented for the season. The Pasadena boys who are now at the camp 100 strong report fishing and swimming fine and the newly engaged "white" cook turning out the best of eats. The camp this year will be run on a more military line than before, and the boys will get much experience in drill and discipline. To help make the camp more home-like and enjoyable many of the ladies of the county are presenting them with a few cans of jam or jelly. These may be left at the Daffy News office, where they will be boxed and sent to the camp. The camp will be under the direct management of County Secretary Cole, assisted by the following leaders: Paul Pritchard, crack athlete of Occidental, Ray King, stroke of the Stanford crew, Archie Raitt, former football star of Pomona, M. E. Beebe, manager of the Anaheim Sanitarium, Rev. M. C. Martin, pastor of the Anaheim Presbyterian church, W. E. Spicer, formerly of Orange, and Arthur Anderson and Waldo Tounot of Garden Grove. The following Orange boys are signed for the trip: Norval Moore, Neil Granger, Lyle Richards, Percy Everett, Helmer Anderson, Stephen Michael, Marion Drumm and Fred Hobbs. Others wishing to get in on this outing should phone or see Secretary Cole soon. YOUNG PAPER CARRIER INJURED BY AUTO Walter Knox Haa Leg Broken in Accident on Broadway Walter Knox, thirteen-year-old son The society is absolutely non-partisan and neutral. The wounded enemy has precisely the same claim on a Red Cross nurse as a soldier from her own land, and receives the same treatment. All the nations in the war now have efficient Red Cross corps, and let it not be said that the United States has fallen short this branch of the service organized for the protection of the boys who fight. When an American boy is carried back wounded from the firing line he should not open his eyes upon the face of a foreign nurse who speaks a strange language or accent, but he should look upon a nurse from home who speaks a tongue familiar to him. When the war broke out Germany had the most efficient Red Cross service in the world. Eighty thousand nurses went to war with the army, and as a result 850 of every thousand wounded soldiers were sent back into the trenches. France's Red Cross army was defective, consequently only 225 of each thousand wounded were able to go back, but France enlarged the society, and now only one-third as many succumb to their wounds.

Florence Nightingale organized a force of nurses, went to the front and the percentage of deaths among the wounded dropped to 20 in each 1000. Orange county is the wealthiest county in the United States in comparison with its population, he said, and it has been asked to give only $35,000 to this fund. Riverside county was assessed $25,000 and on Wednesday it was reported to me that it had planned to send 50,000 nurses to the front with the American army, and the fund now being raised is to furnish the needed finances for this corps of life-savers. The government could appropriate the necessary money for the maintenance of this body, but in that case it would become subject to the government and cease to be neutral.

It will require an average of one hundred days to transform a piece of material into an expert birdman. There is as yet, no intimation of the number of pupils who will be sent here for instruction, but the government is expecting to send 30,000 aeroplanes to Europe, and it will require a large army of men to manipulate them. All the resources of the country will be strained to fit these men for their hazardous service. Representatives of the company went down to San Pedro last week and purchased 20,000 feet of spruce timber for the construction of the machines. This will build forty planes. The company has been able to get a quantity of timber elsewhere, but one of the problems confronting it is the scarcity of spruce. This is the only wood used in the manufacture of American planes at present, but it is probable if the spruce supply becomes exhausted a good substitute will be found for it. In Europe just now they are using many varieties of wood because they must have aircraft and the best is not obtainable, but nothing is so satisfactory as spruce. President Krause expects to go to the lumber regions of Oregon and Washington in a short time and endeavor to purchase an ample supply of the needed timber.

YOUNG PAPER CARRIER INJURED BY AUTO Walter Knox Haa Leg Broken in Accident on Broadway Walter Knox, thirteen-year-old son of Mrs. Isabel Knox of South Los Angeles street, was run down by an automobile driven by Ed Probosco of Brea Sunday, and sustained a broken leg and other minor injuries. Walter was riding down Broadway on his wheel ahead of the auto. At the corner Probosco turned into Claudina street and caught the boy before he could get out of the way. His left leg was broken and the rear wheel of his bicycle was smashed. The injured boy was taken to the sanitarium by W. M. Wickett. It was found there that the broken leg was the most serious of his hurts. Walter assisted in the maintenance of the family by carrying papers, having two routes, and his enforced idleness is a serious one for his mother. It will be some weeks before he is able for duty again. Mr. Probosco driver of the auto has been rendering the boy all assistance in his power since the accident. Carrie Schwentker administratrix of the estate of Henry Schwentker, deceased, has petitioned to have his estate, valued at $3,500 distributed among his heirs, Carrie, Stella, Julies and Frank Schwentker, and she asked that she be discharged of her trust. Orange county is the wealthiest county in the United States in comparison with its population, he said, and it has been asked to give only $35,000 to this fund. Riverside county was assessed $25,000 and on Wednesday it was reported to me that it had raised $31,000 and had set its stake forward to $50,000 and prepared to raise it. Pomona's allotment was $10,000 and it announced that it had already raised $13,000 and the fund is still growing. Anaheim's quota is only $5000, and he believed the German-American people who loved democracy and the liberty it gave them would contribute this sum and more. The United States, he says, lacks efficiency. We are slack, easy going, extravagant, incompetent and lazy. In Germany, when a boy reaches the age of seven he is enrolled by the government as a future asset. At sixteen it is determined what particular pursuit he is best fitted for his mental and physical condition being taken into account. He has no choice in the matter, his life is ordered by the state. I would rather, he said, live in inefficient extravagant, care-free America where I can order my own life and take my chances with the others. The Lord never permitted one man to conquer the world. All who have been ambitious for world conquest have fallen. Alexander tried it and failed, Caesar attempted it and failed, Philip of Spain and Napoleon tried it and were cut down, the kaiser is now attempting it and will also fail.

As the German squadron was superior to Dewey's to disobey meant the sinking of the American ships and consequently war with Germany, but the English admiral in the harbor put his flagship between the German and the American and informed von Dietrich if he fired on the Olympia he would fire over the decks of the most powerful navy in the world which would mean war with England. He explains the Zimmerman note which resulted in the withdrawal of von Bernstorff, United States secret service men, he said, ransacked the German ambassador's rooms and finally unearthed the note. It took two weeks to decipher the code but it was finally read and declares that the Kalser commanded von Bernstorff to communicate with Gen. Carranze, offering him Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and that portion of California which Mexico formerly owned, in turn for which Mexico was to declare war on the United States, to permit Germany to land troops and to have free use of ports for submarines. Von Bernstorff was also instructed to confer with the Mikado's representative in Washington and to offer Japan all the balance of the United States west of the Rocky mountains. When this note was laid before President Wilson EAGLE SCREAMS AT FULLERTON JULY 4TH ANAHEIM ACCEPTS INVITATION TO JOIN NORTHERN CITY IN THE CELEBRATION BOOST FOR RED CROSS FUND GIVEN BY SPEAKER AT MERCHANTS' LUNCHEON Anaheim will celebrate the Glorious Fourth at Fullerton this year—that is that part of the population who want to hear the eagle scream and dodge the festive fire cracker. Dr. E. W. Hauck and Rev. J. R. Marsh attended the business men's luncheon Thursday and presented an invitation to the people of Anaheim to join with them and help make this the most patriotic demonstration ever witnessed in the county. Dr. Hauck stated that every town in the northern end of the county had been invited to Join Fullerton and all had signified an intention of turning out in force. It is to be a Red Cross demonstration.

Both if them escaped with superficial injuries. The explosion of a high pressure pipe at the gasoline plant of the National Products company, on the Graham-Loftus lease, hurled steel slvers into the hand of the little daughter of "Slim" Hollis. The child was sitting on the pipe when that portion of California which Mexico formerly owned, in turn for which Mexico was to declare war on the United States, to permit Germany to land troops and to have free use of ports for submarines. Von Bernstorff was also instructed to confer with the Mikado's representative in Washington and to offer Japan all the balance of the United States west of the Rocky mountains. When this note was laid before President Wilson he had no option but to declare that a state of war existed between this country and Germany. The United States, he declared, should have gone to war when Belgium was invaded and isolated. We had signed to the treaty of The Hague pledging ourselves to protect the neutrality of Belgium. Germany had also signed it but ruthlessly disregarded its oath. A high German official told him, he said, that treaties were only to be regarded so long as they did not interfere with Germany's advancement. We should also have gone to war when Germany sank the Lusitania and assassinated 190 American citizens. He stated that France was almost exhausted and without the help coming from Amerhica she might be eventually defeated. In that event Germany could control the English channel and bring England to terms by starving her. She would then turn to the one properous country left for an indemnity to pay her enormous debt of $18,000,000,000. Seven million men, he said, had already been killed in the war, eleven million wounded, and five million had been made blind, principally by gas. There was no question in the mind of the speaker that America's advent into the war would overthrow imperialism, save democracy and make it certain for all time that government of the people, for the people and by the people should not perish from the earth. Rev. Marsh gave some idea of the program being prepared. There will be a parade on the street in the morning, headed by the Anaheim band, there will be splendid oratory during the day, and there will be interesting doings at the high school in the evening. A program is being arranged that will furnish ample entertainment for people of all degrees. F. C. Krause moved that the invitation be accepted, and the motion carried. Anaheim will probably turn out in force and help our neighbors celebrate the day in a fitting manner. Chiarman Hoack announced that Joe Walters of the Colisseum pool room had donated two boxes of cigars for an after dinner smoke. They were an extraordinary brand, he said, and each man was expected to pay two bits for one of them. After the boxes had been passed along the line there were a few cigars left in each box, consequently they were put up and sold at auction H. O. Henderson acting as auctioneer. W. A. Dalan got the first one for $2.50 and H. G. Ames the other at the same figure. Then after Mr. Henderson had been fined $5 for selling cigars without a license, Edward F. Trefz, the speaker, was introduced. Mr. Trefz is devoting his time just now to boosting for the Red Cross campaign fund. He is just from Europe, and tells some interesting stories about conditions in that war torn continent. Mr. Trefz is of German extraction his father being exiled from Germany in 1848. He was one of the most intensely loyal citizen in the United States, and "fought mit Sigel" in Civil War. Speaking of the loyalty of German-Americans to the Stars and Stripes he said his father was in a brigade four thousand strong and commands had to be issued to them in the German language as they could not understand English. With NARROW ESCAPE Two children narrowly escaped death in odd mishaps which occurred at Brea, Monday. Both if them escaped with superficial injuries. The explosion of a high pressure pipe at the gasoline plant of the National Products company, on the Graham-Loftus lease, hurled steel slivers into the hand of the little daughter of "Slim" Hollis. The child was sitting on the pipe when the explosion tok place. The combination of a thirty foot fall, a slide down a hillside and immersion in oil, wasn't enough to injure the little son of Mr. and Mrs. William Scott. The child was walking on a hanging bridge that spans one of the deep canyons in the Birch Hill property, lost his balance and fell thirty feet. He struck on the hillside and roiled down a considerable distance. A big oil reservoir stands at the bottom of the hill and the child brought up in this. His cries brought rescuers who pulled him out. R. E. Vaughn is at home again after several weeks spent in Kansas and Missouri. He missed the cyclone at Coffeyville, a moth ago by a narrow margin, having left the town just before it struck. Kansas, he says, is bristling with patriotism. Montgomery county, with a population of about the same as Orange, enlisted 800 volunteers. The city of Coffeyville, with 15,000 population, raised two full companies—a company of cavalry and a company of infantry for the National Guard. W. E. Duckworth and family spent Sunday in Los Angeles. There is no reason why any man of draft age who has not registered should try to hide out for fear that it is too late to register. If he goes to the county clerk's office he will be registered, and no trouble will be caused. He will be asked why he did not previously register, and his answer will be noted upon the registration card. Instructions to register all applicants as hitherto have been received by County Clerk Williams from the state Bureau of Registration.
