A number of business houses have neglected to pull down the placards advertising the bond issue, and strangers, coming into town, might think that this city is still asking for subscriptions. The awning over Wm. Jackson's store caught fire Tuesday afternoon, and afforded considerable amusement to the spectators as a young man threw water from a bucket onto it, only to have most of it fall back on him. There was no damage except a small hole in the awning. It is reported that a certain business house in Los Angeles exposed a banner last week on which was painted in large letter: "If you refuse to subscribe for a Liberty Bond, you must live in Anaheim." As we heard this quoted in several ways we are not certain as to the exact wording, but the above is said to be correct. If this was intended as a joke it was a sorry one, and made sorrier by the returns from the Liberty Bond drive. 1444 Anaheim people subscribed for bonds, being one out of every four of its population, counting men, women, children and babies. We more than doubled our minimum allotment, and went over the maximum 20 percent. It is claimed that there is not a town of equal population and assessed valuation in the United States that can show this record. The business house that flaunted that undeserved insult in the faces of passersby should be marked and its name made public here.

Money collected by the city for water, light and license during the month of September totalled more than $6000, which is evidence that Anaheim is growing. Members of the Anaheim police force on Sunday appeared in their new navy blue uniforms, and were the observed of all observers. The associated chambers of commerce met at Hotel Rochester, Orange last night, many subjects of importance to Orange county, being under discussion. Drs. W. L. and Harriet Bigham, who have heretofore practiced only oestopathy, have received word from the state medical board that they have been licensed to practice medicine and surgery. Your attention is called to the fact that postmasters are authorized to cash interest coupons on United States government bonds. This statement is made to the general public, when selling bonds, particularly to those who are unfamiliar with bonds and the method of collecting interest. Phil Germann took a day off last week and went fishing to Newport Beach. Phil is an expert angler and returned home with so many fish that he passed out a generous supply to his friends. There is some talk that Anaheim will have a baseball team this winter. The estate of E. E. Keech! who was killed by a train some months ago, has been appraised at $20,825.08. Engineer H.

His two sons are already there and the balance of the family will leave in a short time. Mrs. C. W. Martin entertained the Anaheim Whist club at her home on the Garden Grove road Friday. The house was decorated with Hallowe'en colors. In the whist games Mrs. Bennerscheldt won first prize, Mrs. Berdrow second and Mrs. Nebelung third. J. W. Sackett has declared war against dogs, for he says the domesticated carnivorous animals and crates of vegetables upon the sidewalks do not go well together. He suggests that all unlicensed canines be shot and the rest of the tribe be kept off the downtown streets. CHARLEY NEWCOMBE BECOMES A BENEDICT Married to Miss Laura Allgeyer of Brookshurst Tuesday One of the season's most interesting weddings occurred Tuesday evening when Miss Laura Allgeyer, daughter of Mrs. Constance Allgeyer of Brookshurst became the bride of Charles L. Newcombe, son of Mr. and Mrs. C. R. Newcombe of this city. As befitting wartimes the utmost simplicity prevailed throughout the ceremony which was performed at the beautiful country home of the bride's mother and where the bride was born and grew to winsome girlhood. Only the parents of the high contracting parties were present and Rev. L. C. Yeoman read the service. Mr. and Mrs. Newcombe left immediately afterward for their honeymoon sojourn "somewehre in California" after which they will reside in San Bernardino where Mr. Newcombe is associated with C. O. Prest in the manufacture of aeroplanes for the government mail service. It being the intention to use the planes to carry mail in this country and between the United States and Alaska. A host of good wishes accompany the young couple on their venture as both are extremely popular and have a wide circle of friends. Anaheim business houses are decorated with Elks' colors this week, some of them being artistic. If the weather holds good it is expected that everybody in the northern half of the county will attend the jubilee at least once, and the Christmas fund will reach large proportions. Liberty Bonds are-already becoming legal tender, even before they are issued, many business men announcing that they will take them at face value, while some are offering a pre- Phil Germann took a day off last week and went fishing to Newport Beach. Phil is an expert angler and returned home with so many fish that he passed out a generous supply to his friends. Edward Atherton of the Fullerton Ostrich farm, writes to the Gazette that he expects to have enough feathers on hand to enable him to put one in the cap of every hero returning from the war. He has twenty-five birds on his ranch, but the war is interfering with the sale of ostrich plumes just now. Many business houses are gaily decorated in honor of the Elks' charity Jubilee which is being held in this city this week, purple and white and the stars and stripes being used profusely. Large crowds are daily in attendance at the shows given by Foley & Burk, and the jubilee promises to be a huge success. Mrs. Cora Mann received a photograph of Charley McAulay Tuesday. He was dressed in the immaculate white uniform of the navy when the picture was taken. He is stationed at the Mare Island navy yard, taking a course in electrical engineering. Charley is enthusiastic over the navy, and declares his intention of making the service his life work. Comrade Hayward allows this is peculiar fall, the weather being cold morning and nights, and hot during midday. At times the mornings remain hazy, the mountains being obscured from view. Camrade Hayward believes the rains will descend copiously early in the new year. Frank Wick bought from the city the team of mules formerly used to draw the street sweeper. One of the mules was in good condition, while its mate was just about all in, through some alliment hard to solve. Since the city had no further use for the mules, and hay skyrocketing along with other commodities, it was thought best to sell them. Sixty dollars was the best bargain the city could house was decorated with Hallowe'en colors. In the whist games Mrs. Bennerscheldt won first prize, Mrs. Berdow second and Mrs. Nebelung third. J. W. Sackett has declared war against dogs, for he says the domesticated carnivorous animals and crates of vegetables upon the sidewalks do not go well together. He suggests that all unlicensed canines be shot and the rest of the tribe be kept off the downtown streets. A hard fought game of bowls was played at the Club Bowling alley Tuesday evening between the Gordon & Burke team of Santa Ana and the Meeks & Schwartz team of Los Angeles. These teams decided on neutral grounds for the rub game and chose Anaheim as the field of battle. The Los Angeles men won by 68 pins. Friends of Oscar Heying received a telegram from him the first of the week announcing that he had suddenly been summoned to show up in New York. Oscar was one of the Anaheim boys training at Camp Lewis. He gave no details as to the nature of the service assigned him, and further information had not been received up to yesterday. One of the thrusts aimed at the sewage farm, on account of its location at its present site, is that land around there is worth $2000 per acre. Since expert orange growers estimate that the soil's productivity is enhanced from 100 to 500 per cent by the use of the effluent flow of water from the tanks, it does not take much of a mathematician to figure out the great enhancement in value of these 20 acres of land. City Marshal Kellenberger and St. Supt. Sackett are going after everyone who obstructs sidewalks. Sackett reported to the city trustees that the big store in the Mitchell block had a wagon load of boxes piled up in front of the store and when he asked to have them removed he was told that the boxes had been sold to a farmer and that he was the person to go after. Sackett was peeved thereat. But he stayed on the job until the obstruction was removed. The council will pass an ordinance regulating these cases and the city officials say they will see that the law is enforced. Liberty Bonds are already becoming legal tender, even before they are issued, many business men announcing that they will take them at face value, while some are offering a premium. Leo Sheridan and Percy Rust are in the Imperial Valley on a duck hunting expedition. In a bowling match at the Club alleys Monday night Efker and Handleman were matched against McNally and Gordon. It was one of the closest games ever played, the score being 334 to 333, McNally and Gordon having the extra point. A number of Seal Beach boosters were circulating among the Jubilee crowds Tuesday night, boosting for the chamber of commerce dance held there last night. Mrs. Jalla Hickerson entertained Dr. and Mrs. C. W. Harvey at dinner at her home an Adele street Friday. On Sunday she also had as a guest Mrs. Davis of this city.

Frank Wick bought from the city the team of mules formerly used to draw the street sweeper. One of the mules was in good condition, while its mate was just about all in, through some alliment hard to solve. Since the city had no further use for the mules, and hay skyrocketing along with other commodities, it was thought best to sell them. Sixty dollars was the best bargain the city could make and they were let go. Mr. Wick is in the wholesale butchering business, but gives his word that the purchase of the mules was solely for the purpose of using them for farm work. Just before the city trustees convened in regular session on Thursday evening, Street Superintendent J. W. Sackett called up on the phone the editor of a paper here and the following conversation ensued: Sackett: "I understand you said in your paper that a Pasadena contractor is on record as saying he could make money by putting in the street paving here at five cents." The Editor: "I did not make such a statement." Sackett: "I am told you so have stated in your issue of Wednesday, October 24." The Editor: "Oh, well, I'll get in touch with the man and send him to you early in the morning." Sackett: "Well, get busy; if you have a man who will do this work, according to specifications, for 5 cents, send him along. We want him. And Sackett says he has not seen hide nor hair of the man.

MUST HAVE THREE CENT STAMP ON LETTERS OR THEY STAY HERE If you have been delaying that letter to the old folks, or to the boy in camp, or to someone else, you'd better get busy and write it before Friday. For after that date, November 2, Uncle Sam proposes to collect three cents for each letter mailed, instead of the old familiar 2 center. Post cards will cost 2 cents, instead of only one penny, which means that a 1-cent stamp must be put on in addition to the printed stamp. And return post cards will cost 4 cents, twice as much as formerly. Another thing to remember is that unless letters bear the full 3-cent postage when they are mailed, they will not leave the local office. They won't be sent on to the destination with a "postage due" stamp and the additional 1 cent collected at the delivery point. A campaign to obtain 500,000 signatures of California housewives to food conservation pledges which will make them a part of the federal food conservation program, began Sunday, inaugurating Food Pledge Week. Ralph P. Merritt, food administrator for this state, announced Saturday. Approximately 50,000 men and women are conducting the campaign. There are no fees or dues to be paid. The cards will be carried through the mails under government franks. A simultaneous campaign was started throughout the nation with an objective of 22,000,000 signatures. Every county in the state has been organized under the leadership of patriotic men and women, in addition, more than 50,000 school children are participating in the house to house canvass. They will distribute 100,000 of the pledge cards to their parents. Monday Boy Scouts handed out cards in the moving picture theater, during talks by the Four-Minute men.
