STORE Angus McGilvray of Garden Grove is in the county jail on a charge of failing to register for the draft. The arrest was made through the sheriff's office, and the man is being held for Federal authorities in Los Angeles. McGilvray served a term in the Patton institution because of inability to control his desire for liquor. He seems not to have a very clear idea of what the egistration really is for. He said that he did not register because he thought "they would have enough without him." While prices rise, winter fuel bills drop for the man who installs a Gas Company furnace. The people on the east side of the river in the vicinity of the Olive bridge have formed a protection district and have almost unanimously voted a bond issue of about $10 an acre to put in adequate protection to the east bank. The people there are united and deem it wise to protect their property from future overflow. As a result of this protection work, naturally a large volume of the river during excessive rainfall will be forced to the west bank of the river, thereby making it more imperative that substantial protection be maintained in that quarter. The Santa Ana river is erratic and during floodtide is a roaring menace. Would not it be well for the people on the west side to adopt the practice of the people of the east side and bury the hatchet. Let the Gas Company convert your coal furnace into a modern Gas Furnace. No wood or coal to carry, no soot to clean out. Natural Gas does away with all work and worry. Oscar Dorn has been appointed deputy policeman and has been assigned If you want everything desired in a modern gas stove, buy an Eclipse Cabinet Gas Range.

From the letters that have come back, John will have some great fish stories to tell. War and waste go hand in hand. Save on your winter fuel bill by converting your wood or coal furnace into a Gas Furnace. See the Gas Company today. Douglas Rose was in town a few days ago from the Columbia lease where he has been employed as a driller for the past eight or nine years.

Markle, and that elderly young couple celebrated the affair by entertaining the Missionary society of the Christian church. The choir of the German Lutheran church of this city was entertained last week by Mr. and Mrs. Henry Burdorf of Fullerton. Those who enjoyed the entertainment besides the host and hostess were Rev. and Mrs. Schmelzer, Mr. and Mrs. George Flesner, Mrs. G. Grefe, Miss Kate Cordes, Miss Ida Heitheusen and Misses Ella and Mae Frahm. Mr. and Mrs. J. T. Bean were given a surprise wedding shower at the home of John Hetebrink of Fullerton Saturday evening.

A number of beautiful gifts were presented to the couple, and the evening was spent in dancing in the basement of the residence. A number of Anaheim friends were present. The Ladies Sewing Circle of Olive came over to Anaheim Thursday and met at the home of Mrs. A. E. Charleston. The time was spent sewing for the Red Cross. The hostess served refreshments late in the afternoon. Miss Elsa Rust has returned from New Jersey and is spending the summer with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. C. O. Rust. Miss Rust graduated from Columbia college last year, and is teaching manual arts in a large school at Hackensack. She will return east next month to resume her duties as a member of the faculty in the Hackensack school. Mrs. Elizabeth A. Lawton of Santa Ana was in town on Saturday evening visiting friends. Mr. Lawton addressed a meeting at Fullerton on Saturday afternoon, urging conservation of food during the progress of the war. Many ladies were present and all expressed a desire to cooperate in food conservation. Frank Dyer has put up a screen door at the front entrance to his tonsorial parlors because the recent warm weather was a little too much for him, as he is a good deal of a fresh air fiend. He couldn't leave the glass door open because the files would come in, so he called in Mr. Scott to hang the screen. Frank says the screen may have a tendency to moderate the weather but intends to leave it up even though all the steadies catch cold. The withdrawal of several local fruit exchanges from the Semi-Tropic Fruit Exchange, it is said by well informed local orange growers, will greatly benefit their members. Heretorefone when the Semi-Tropic would receive an ordeal of fullerton. Those who enjoyed the entertainment besides the host and hostess were Rev. and Mrs. Schmelzer, Mr. and Mrs. George Flesner, Mrs. G. Grefe, Miss Kate Cordes, Miss Ida Heitsheusen and Misses Ella and Mae Frahm. A well known Placentia horticulturist has an old lemon tree on his place, over which hang the branches of a large and spreading pepper tree. During the recent hot spell the fruit was unaffected from the heat, and the last maturing crop of lemons from the tree has netted the grower over $17. This may serve to solve an important problem in citrus culture. A crop of oranges and lemons is too valuable to be allowed to remain unprotected from the elements, which in the most favored localities sometimes go awry. It may be within the range of possibility that growers will provide artificial protection to their growing citrus crops, along with the many other scientific inventions now hedging in the precious industry. A man and woman who appeared to be tipsy strolled along the shady walks in the school yard, late one afternoon recently and finally seated themselves upon one of the benches in the park. They were of a lovable nature and seemed to care not for passers by, among whom were a number of ladies and children. The couple we re laughing and talking and having a high old time, when an alarm was sent in to police headquarters. Officer Germann came over, but the pair had flown, headed east, and no arrests were made. In telling of his experience at the meeting of the Loara protestants the other evening, A. A. Mills said for a time the proceedings in some quarters became caloric, and during the argument one speaker intimated that Mills had called him a liar. Mills denied the soft impeachment, saying that the aforementioned gentleman had been simply misinformed. The west-sider persisted and said that he would spoil Mills' physiognomy and do other divers things to him, if he didn't watch out. Mills is peaceful, but without is not a good sprinter, so he stood his ground and argued the combative one to a standstill. Mills averred that some of the protestants had on considerable war paint, but being a member of the tax payers' league he has become used to it and passed the matter off as being trivial and of no avail. The insinuating charges made that they are now ready for the real stuff. Bob says the thermometer climbs to 140 in the shade, with very little shade, but the natives dont mind it after they become acclimated. He says during the past few weeks the heat remained the same day and night. Bob has had an electric fan placed over his downy couch and after his hard day's work goes to bed and sleeps like a top. John Ziegler, owner of the Valencia hotel, told the board of trade Monday evening that the hotel is shown to tourists and strangers within our gates as one of the show places of the town, but that when there is to be any "eats" the boosters journey off to another cafe. Ziegler does not think this is a square deal. The hotel is a credit to the town and the owner thinks the cafe people should be given a run for their money. Ziegler is a booster and would like to see the board of trade give the hostelry more consideration. But members of the organization say the luncheon eats have not been up to standard, and that they are a good deal like the Missouriian. We are headquarters for all kinds of Beet and Bean Machinery. Among the various tools needed by the Beet Farmer, the Riding Baby Beet Puller will prove a good investment and the most profitable implement the Beet Grower can own. We also have a Moline Foot Guide Beet Puller and the Killifer One-row riding beet plow. The above pullers are riding tools. If you have extremely hard soil, you will probably need the Killifer plow, but if not, the Puller is by far the better tool for you. If you are going to need a Puller or Plow, we ask that you protect yourselves now by giving us your order and a deposit, as those who wait may be unable to get a Puller in time. This advice also applies to wagons, plows and all other beet machinery. Order or buy early. If you cannot call on us, kindly phone or write and we will give you prompt service. WICKERSHEIM IMPLEMENT CO. 117 West Commonwealth Ave. Fullerton, Calif. 5-4t Mr. Brown of the west side, who has lived here three years, is fearful that open because the lines would come in so he called in Mr. Scott to hang the screen. Frank says the screen may have a tendency to moderate the weather but intends to leave it up even though all the steadies catch cold. The withdrawal of several local fruit exchanges from the Semi-Tropic Fruit Exchange, it is said by well informed local orange growers, will greatly benefit their members. Heretofore when the Semi Tropic would receive an order for say, six or seven cars of fruit, the orders for the same would be cancelled out to the several sections throughout the Southland for fulfillment. It is admitted by all impartial persons that Orange county fruit is in all cases far superior to that raised in other sections, especially the Valencas. As a result of "pooling" its orders the parent exchange would naturally receive much fruit from outside sections that was of an inferior grade. The good and the bad would be sent together to Eastern markets with the result that prices in many cases would be low, by reason of the fact that poor fruit would be contained in the consignments. This, say the local growers, placed them at a decided disadvantage. They aver that each locality should stand upon its own bottom, and this is the reason for their cutting loose from the parent association. It cost $34,886,139.73 to run the state of California in all its departments, including schools and highway construction, for the fiscal year ending June 30, according to the report of John S. Chambers state controller. During the year Chambers issued 39,233 warrants, an average of more than 100 daily. LOST—English bull pup from residence of Robt. Corcoran, Fullerton. Reward. Phone 278-J., Fullerton. The insinuating charges made that a couple of the river protection committeemen had been bribed in their dealings with some of the westsiders seeking exclusion from the boundary lines of the district, are libelous, and one of the gentlemen accused is thinking of turning the case over to his attorney. Miss Annie Bentjen, daughter of Mr and Mrs. Frank Bentjen, was married Saturday afternoon to Otto Rohrs of Olive, the ceremony being performed at the home of the bride by Rev. H. G. Schmelzer. The bride's attendants were Misses Tillie Bentjen and Nellie Rohrs, the groom being supported by Fred Bentjen and Albert Rohrs. After a honeymoon tour the young couple will settle down on the groom's ranch near Olive. George Hatfield made a trip to Laguna Beach Friday and returned with a limit catch of abalones. "Chuck" says it takes a brave man to slip up on one of the giant creatures. A white hope came over from quiet and peaceful Orange the other day, and got the decision in a brief one-round argument. Central, ring up Jess Willard. FARMS WANTED—Wanted to hear from owner of good farm for sale. Northwestern Business Agency. Minneapolis, Minn. Mr. Brown of the west side, who has lived here three years, is fearful that should the Anaheim-Yorba river protection district be formed and get into working order that people will be taxed to death to keep up the district, for when once you are in it is hard to get out, he said. He makes the deduction that all the improvement work in the way of dikes will be washed out with each recurring heavy overflow (if such a thing should come to pass) and that the people would see a never ending tax levy staring themselves in the face to replace the damage. He believed people in time would be taxed to the extent of $50 per acre, which would be ruinous. However men who have made a careful study of the situation maintain that substantial improvements can be made for an outlay not to exceed $2 per acre, according to the acreage now included. Others say perhaps the tax would be higher, some even venturing the assertion that it would require $5 or $6 per acre to do a good job. Were the river bed to be allowed to remain in its present condition, and should we have another flood next winter, much acreage, both east and west, should it be in the channel of the rushing flood waters, now held at $2000 to $3000 per acre, may not go under the hammer for a quarter of those figures. TO TRADE—Lot and 6-room cottage on boulevard and electric line, Santa Monica, for small acreage near Anaheim. Box 242, Anaheim, Cal.

The board if trade committee appointed for the purpose of considering the names proposed for the new instrument being manufactured by the Peck Phonograph Company, decided that No. 14 was the most appropriate. It was submitted by Mrs. N. C. Smith of 109 West Center street. Her suggestion was "Helmola," and the instrument was so christened. Mr. Peck presented her with one of the instruments. Mr. Peck also announces that those who submitted names will be given a $10 credit on an instrument if they wish to purchase one. Dr. C. R. Bernard of New York city came in Tuesday on a visit to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. W. S. Bernard. His wife has been living with her parents-in-law since their residence here, making daily trips to Los Angeles where she is cultivating her voice for a grand opera career. Dr. Bernard will remain here several weeks. Workmen began Monday cutting off the front of the Iriarte building adjoining the Hotel Valencia. It will be set back eight feet to conform to the new property line on that street. Other property owners in that block, it is said, are preparing to do likewise, and in a short time, it is hoped the jogs will be planned down, and the street will present an even frontage. It is also reported that Dr. F. H. Houck will shortly begin the erection of an up-to-date block on his lots just east of the postoffice. FOR SALE—Fancy Burbank seed potatoes. W. F. Speer, R. F.
