ANAHEIM AGAIN DISPLAYS HER COLORS
GOES OVER THE TOP IN THE Y. M. C. A. DRIVE BY MORE THAN $1000
PATRIOTIC HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS CONTRIBUTE $500 TO THE WAR FUND
Anaheim has again gone over the top. Solicitors for the Y. M. C. A. war fund footed up at noon Tuesday and found that this city had subscribed more than a thousand dollars above its allotment, the total subscriptions being $3513.90. Of this sum the Anaheim high school contributed $500.
One of the most remarkable campaigns in the history of the Y. M. C. A. closed in California and throughout the nation on Tuesday night. Although definite figures were unattainable here at that time, it was certain that the wave of patriotism and sympathy for the boys in khaki and navy blue had swept more than $1,000,000 into the strong box of the California
INCONSISTENT
Editor Ernest's restless little hammer is still busy. He has knocked everybody who, falling to recognize the power of his dinky little sheet, refused to patronize him. He has almost reached the end, however, and one of these days will, like Alexander, sit down and weep because there is nothing new left for him to swat.
His latest ebullition of spite was directed at Mr. and Mrs. C. L. Head of the Fairland and New Grand theatres. His only grievance against the managers of these popular houses is that they withdrew their advertising patronage from him, and the person who does not patronize the dinky little Plain Dealer is not worthy the support of the people of Anaheim—in the opinion of Editor Ernest.
In his issue of Monday he advises people to stay at home from the movies and read the war news, but in a parallel column he gives the Rialto Theatre at Fullerton a complimentary boost and requests the Anaheim realers of his paper to load up their friends and motor over to our sister city to see the photoplays the Rialto is putting on. He also charges that the Heads fired the Vin Moore stock company from the Grand because it was cutting into the business of the Fairland. This is a pipe dream. The Fairland has been enjoying good houses ever since the stock company

One of the most remarkable campaigns in the history of the Y. M. C. A. closed in California and throughout the nation on Tuesday night. Although definite figures were unattainable here at that time, it was certain that the wave of patriotism and sympathy for the boys in khaki and navy blue had swept more than $1,000,000 into the strong box of the California Y. M. C. A. and more than $40,000,000 into that of the national Y. M. C. A. War Work fund. Never before in the history of the association has a financial campaign met with such an enthusiastic response on the part of the public. Men, women and children took an active part in working for the fund, as well as contributing to it. Washer women, widows, moving picture "extra" girls, industrial employees and city street department employees were contributors to the California fund.
A number of very large gifts aided in sending California "over the top", among these being $200,000 from E. E. Doheny of Los Angeles; $25,000 from Geo. W. Marston of San Diego; $10,000 from Capt. Robert Dollar of San Francisco; $10,000 from the Standard Oil company, and similar contributions from other individuals and business or industrial concerns. In dozens of communities the quotas asked were oversubscribed. Some of these were oversubscribed even before the campaign began. Orange county probably takes the record for over subscription. Ralph G. Cole, county secretary, reported early in the week that practically $25,000 had been subscribed. This means an over subscription of 100%, the original quota of the county having been only $12,500. Mr. Cole reported $7,000 of the over subscription had been pledged the day following that on which the goal was reached.
Early in the week the students of California colleges had pledged approximately $40,000 and it was expected that when the final returns were in the total would reach nearly $50,000. The boys in the high schools also have contributed large sums approximating $10,000 to $15,000: Among these were: Covina high school, $1,000, Lodi, $1,064; San Diego, $500; Belmont school, 55 boys, $855; Hanford high school, $1,081. In other high schools boys not only subscribed mon-parallel column he gives the Rialto theatre at Fullerton a complimentary boost and requests the Anaheim realers of his paper to load up their friends and motor over to our sister city to see the photoplays the Rialto is putting on. He also charges that the Heads fired the Vin Moore stock company from the Grand because it was cutting into the business of the Fairyland. This is a pipe dream. The Fairyland has been enjoying good houses ever since the stock company opened at the Grand, and Sunday night, the last appearance of the Vin Moore company, it was crowded.
Editor Ernest should be more consistent in his statements. If it is a waste of valuable time spending an hour or two a week at an Anaheim theatre why should it be time well spent motoring over to Fullerton to see the same thing.
is hidden in the tip of his tongue. Here are some of the sentences he has used in his speeches:
“If we are to bring our boys back clean; if we are to save their lives from the terrible monotony at the front; then you must loosen your purse strings.”
“The mad dog of Berlin has the idea that he is a private secretary to God Almighty, and we must change that notion.”
“There have been too many plious phrases in our so-called Christianity. Now is the time to put the pay in patriotism.”
“I have been a Christian minister for thirty years, but, believe me, I would like to have a hand in hanging some of these so-called 'Christian pacifists' to the nearest lamp post.”
“The only argument Germany understands is longer range guns than she possesses.”
“We are hiding today behind the British navy, whether you know it or not.”
“If you want a soldier to go through hell and come out smiling, take Tommy Atkins. Let’s hope our boys can do it just as well.”
“We are going to fight the Germans till hell freezes over, and then buy skates to chase 'em with.”
At the close of Dr. Francis’ address Chairman Gibbs appointed team captains to solicit subscriptions as follows Prof. C. R. Prince, G. A. Walman, A. Nagel, J. F. Ahlborn, W. M. Wickett, Charles Eygabroad, George Ross, S.

In other high schools boys not only subscribed money but took an active part in speaking in behalf of the Y. M. C. A. fund. High school students of Venice spent Saturday in a weed pulling contest on the high school lawn and contributed their earnings to the fund. High school students at Santa Monica contributed $500.
The campaign in Anaheim opened at the business men's luncheon Thursday F. N. Gibbs, who had been appointed toastmaster for that day, was fortunate enough to secure Dr. J. A. Francis, formerly pastor of the First Baptist church of Los Angeles as the speaker. Dr. Francis has given up his pulpit and is devoting his entire time to the Y. M. C. A. war work. His time is fully occupied in the campaign and by his eloquent and pointed plea he has opened the eyes of the people wherever he has spoken to the importance of maintaining the Y. M. C. A. in the labor they have undertaken for the amelioration of the condition of the boys in the trenches.
Dr. Francis is a minister of the Gospel, but he is not afraid to use pointed language. He is one of the men behind the men behind the guns, and is doing his utmost to make good. He is not going forth with a prayer book in his hand asking the Almighty to look after the soldiers. He carries with him a razor edged sword and it shell and come out smiling, take Tommy Atkins.

Gibbs was chairman of the committee, M. E. Beebe campaign manager and G. H. Goodale treasurer. The committee met at the board of trade rooms immediately after the lunchoon and subscribed $577 among themselves.
On behalf of Secretary Cole of the County Y. M. C. A. hearty congratulations are to be extended to the Anaheim district for making it possible to carry the home ties to the boys at the front during the coming year.
Orange reports having raised $5,500 and Santa Ana $11,500 up to Tuesday noon.
A complete list of the subscribers and the amounts pledged will be published as soon as possible at the suggestion of the Anaheim War Finance Board.

INSPECT PLANS FOR NEW CITY BUILDING
TRUSTEES MEET IN SPECIAL SESSION TO GIVE PROFILES THE ONCE OVER
IN ALL PROBABILITY WILL LET CONTRACT AT THEIR MEETING TONIGHT
The city councilmen met in special session on Wednesday evening for the purpose of inspecting plans for a new city hall. Four architects submitted plans, three of which called for a building costing about $30,000, while another ranged as high as $40,000. All the buildings were of modern design, and the interior of each being especially drawn for durability and convenience. The building is to be two stories in height, and basement, the lower floor being arranged for the offices of the city clerk, rate collector, engineer and marshal. Hospital quarters are also provided for on the lower floor, beside the motor fire truck, with entrances on Claudina street.
than the continuation of annual repairs.
Edward N. Murray of the forest service told briefly of the work being done by the government in experimental work on reforestation.
He said further that the forest service was now installing rain gauges and stream measuring devices all through the Angelus forest, which would enable them to get complete data on rain fall and run off which would be available.
"The forest service is willing to meet you half way," he said, "in any work of this kind you will do."
ORANGES ON THE SCREEN
One of the new means of advertising Sunkist oranges to consumers is a series of colored lantern slides to be displayed on the screens of moving picture theaters throughout America. By means of a circular to be enclosed in boxes of oranges, retail grocers will be told that they may have the slides bearing their own name if they will arrange with their local or neighborhood moving picture theatres to throw them on the screen between reels or at the beginning or ending of shows. All the slides display oranges in their natural color, which in itself is restful and delightful to the eye. The slides are furnished free. The grocer pays for their showing.
GIRL SIAMESE TWINS
FLETCHER DENIES EXEMPTION TO CLAIMANTS
SEVERAL FROM DISTRICT NO. 2 PRESENT THEIR REASONS AT SANTA ANA SATURDAY
EUGENE ALLEC OF PLACENTIA AND ROBERT E. HEINRICH OF ANAHEM SCRATCHED OFF LIST
Col. Fletcher of San Diego, examined a number of claimants for exemption from army service at Santa Ana Saturday among them being several from his region.
Eugene Allec of Placentia, who appeared before the colonel was told that his exemption would be recommended by Fletcher, since he already has three brothers in the army.
Two cases for which Fletcher had recommended exemption, at a previous time, and against which Dr. Ball had protested, were taken up. One concerned Robert E. Heinrich of Anaheimheim. All of his brothers are married and his mother is 68 years old.
Mrs. Geraldton R. D. Noe Fletcher and her husband Ican Lake be stated that June 12, after ment, as her down in Los Angeles to enlist. S Brea, and the claim, as it be able to health has m Twombly to she has no o was taken un Albert Kadon, who has informed that leave for eing with mother.

another ranged as high as $40,000. All the buildings were of modern design, and the interior of each being especially drawn for durability and convenience. The building is to be two stories in height, and basement, the lower floor being arranged for the offices of the city clerk, rate collector, engineer and marshal. Hospital quarters are also provided for on the lower floor, beside the motor fire truck, with entrances on Claudina street. The jail will also be maintained as at present located. Convenient comfort and rest rooms for men and women are provided for. A spacious room has been designed for the chamber of commerce, where it is proposed to maintain one of the finest exhibits to be found in the state. Fred Gresswell says he will arrange the details for an exhibit, the equal of which would be hard to find.
On the upper floor the council room will be located to be gained by an easy stairway leading from the Center street side. Lobbies will be provided for and every adjunct connected with an up to date building will be looked after. Rooms for the fire company and fire truck driver, will be installed upon the upper floor, and living apartments for the engine man and his family are continued on the Claudina street side of the structure.
The city trustees have gone over the plans carefully and in all probability will make a choice at their regular meeting tonight. It is intended to begin work upon the new structure at the earliest possible moment, and the razing of the old building will no doubt be in progress within the next two or three weeks. Much of the material in the old building can be used in the new, thereby reducing its original cost considerably.
TRI-COUNTY CONTROL

One of the biggest steps toward cooperative action in the three counties of Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside, in the control of flood waters on the Santa Ana river and its tributaries was taken Friday at a mass meeting called by the Tri-County Reforestation committee, held at the Y. M. C. A., and attended by some 70
GIRL SIAMESE TWINS
TO BE SEPARATED
Children Who Exhibited In Anaheim To Undergo Operation
A modern miracle, made possible by scientific surgery, will be performed in the lives of two little "Slamese Twin" girls, Guadaloupe and Josefine Hinijosa, who will be remembered by many Anaheim people, having exhibited here with the Foley & Burk carnival two years ago.
Nature's queer freak of joining the tots together will be remedied by an operation in which the flesh wall that unites them will be severed.
They are to be made separate, individual littl girls, each capable of playing and romping, and being happy like other children.
At the earnest request of the girls' parents, Dr. Harry A. Shaw, Seattle surgeon, has made a careful diagnosis.
X-ray photographs and a variety of other scientific aids, including a series of mind and body tests, were brought into play.
Each child has a complete separate set of organs.
Guadalupe and Josefine were born in Havana, Cuba. They are four years and ten months old.
The little girls in many ways are like other children, but one can go to sleep while the other remains awake. One will laugh at the other crying.
One may be sick and the other well at the same time.
They get along well together, but sometimes they quarrel like other sisters do.
The operation, if successful, will stand unique as probably the first on record. Other operations for severance of Siamese twins have failed because one or the other of the twins has lacked some necessary organ.
THANKS THE GAZETTE
The following card has been receivable before the colonel was told that his exemption would be recommended by Fletcher, since he already has three brothers in the army.
Two cases for which Fletcher had recommended exemption, at a previous time, and against which Dr. Ball had protested, were taken up. One concerned Robert E. Heinrich of Anaheimim. All of his brothers are married and his mother is 68 years old and dependent upon him. A letter from H. H. Coyle, attorney for board number 2 in this county, was read, in which Coyle recommended the exemption of Heinrich. This recommendation was upheld by Fletcher.
The other case was that of Dledrick V. Burdorf of Fullerton. Burdorf's father is too old to farm, and the son is taking care of sixty acres of land, ten of which he owns. Although his parents would not be objects of charity if Burdorf was held to service, Fletcher stated that the district board had criticized him of late for being too strict with the farmers, and for making soldiers of too many of them. A letter from Attorney Coyle, recommending that Burdorf be held to service, put a different light on the case, which Fletcher took under consideration.
"It's a cinch that this case will be settled next week, my friends, and you won't be kept in doubt much longer." Burdorf was told by the agricultural committeeman.
Theodore H. Hartman of Stanton was absent when called to testify.
Milton W. Pannier of Anaheim, who has three younger brothers, was told he had better arrange his affairs so that he could leave for the training camp whenever called.
"I envy you my friend, and am sure you will make a fine soldier," he was told by Fletcher.
George Schrott, brother of Frank J. Schrott of Anaheim, who is now in the training camp at American Lake, came before the board for his soldier brother. Although George Schrott had filed a claim on August 31, it reached Fletcher only last week.
“This man went to the camp without a hearing,” said Fletcher. “The government gave us only two men to handle the work of the district board at first and now we have twenty-two, and they are just able to keep up with it. I had 1100 agricultural cases to work on alone, and there were Eugene Allec of Placentia, who appeared before the colonel was told that his exemption would be recommended by Fletcher, since he already has three brothers in the army.

Efforts Will be Made to Secure Legislation Authorizing it
One of the biggest steps toward cooperative action in the three counties of Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside, in the control of flood waters on the Santa Ana river and its tributaries was taken Friday at a mass meeting called by the Tri-County Reforestation committee, held at the Y. M. C. A., and attended by some 70 determined and representative men from all sections of the Santa Ana river basin.
Under resolutions adopted, a determined effort will be made to secure passage at the next meeting of the state legislature of a bill which will permit the organization in the three counties, of a flood control district, which can be bonded to permit the conduct along the entire water course of flood control, conservation work. Such a bill was introduced by Joe Burke and passed by the last legislature, but failed to secure the governor's signature.
The Anaheim Water company, after the floods of the winter of 1916, expended some $70,000 in repair of damage; the Santa Ana Valley Water company some $20,000, the Riverside Water company about $15,000, the city of Riverside another $15,000 and other companies and interests expended similar amounts.
A. B. West, manager of the Southern Sierra Power company, in presenting a resolution from the Riverside chamber of commerce favoring a systematized plan for flood control and water conservation, said that his company had expended close to $15,000 in the repair of damage to their power lines, and he was highly in favor of an organization for prevention, rather
The operation, if successful, will stand unique as probably the first on record. Other operations for severance of Siamese twins have failed because one or the other of the twins has lacked some necessary organ.

G. H. Hecks, state horticultural commissioner, has ordered all quarantine guardians to intercept and examine all imports of Texas red rust proof seed, oats and vetch, seed arriving at points within their respective jurisdiction.
That Johnson grass has been introduced into California through the medium of the red rust proof oat seed from Texas is the contention of several large seed houses in the state. A number of farmers claimed they had started Johnson grass through this impure seed.

The testimony of Schrott, however, revealed the fact that there were five brothers in the family. Three of these were in the draft age and only one had gone to camp.
"It seems that we decided this case fairly with our eyes shut," said the agricultural expert, who informed Schrott that his brother would be required to remain at camp.
George F. Tanner's case seemed a difficult one to decide. He is farming thirty acres of young orange trees at Anaheim, R. D. 5, for his father. A sister and young brother, in high school, are with him here.
If he were called his brother would have to be taken out of high school, for although he has three other brothers, two of them are farming land for his father in San Luis Obispo, while a third is superintending a large apple ranch in Oregon.
"It is clear that this man, who is raising two crops of beans a year between his orange trees is of value to the government. But we must get an army, and it seems that the boy in Orègon should be able to help out," said Fletcher, who decided to give Tanner a notice that if none in the family had enlisted within thirty days he would have to be certified for service. The yung farmer had stated

Mrs. Gerald R. Twombly, Fullerton R. D. No. 2, came before Colonel Fletcher and asked that the case of her husband, who is now at American Lake be reopened. Mrs. Twombly stated that they were married on June 12, after a two years engagement, as her husband had been turned down in Los Angeles where he tried to enlist. She has been teaching at Brea, and they filed no dependent claim, as it was believed she would be able to earn her own living. Ill health has made it necessary for Mrs. Twombly to resign her position, and she has no other support. The case was taken under consideration.
Albert Kadelbach, aged 22, of Fuller-ton, who has two older brothers, was informed that he had better get ready to leave for camp. He has been farming with his brother and for his mother.
Mrs. Ellis came before Colonel Fletcher and told him that she felt an injustice had been done her foreman, a lad that she had raised and who has been with her on her ranch of 1200 acres for nine years. She stated that they did not receive his notice to apear before Fletcher at a recent hearing until the day after it was over. He has been certified to service. Although Clyde Bishop at one time recommended that the boy be held for service, he has looked
J. STITT WILSON WILL SPEAK TONIGHT
NOTED ORATOR WILL TALK FOR BENEFIT OF THE ANAHEIM RED CROSS CHAPTER
SUBJECT: "THE TEARS, TRAGEDY AND TRIUMPH OF BELGIUM" AND OTHER WAR SUBJECTS
The thousands of Anaheim people who heard J. Stitt Wilson lecture on "Democracy" during the first five days of last week will have the pleasure of hearing him again—at least as many of them as can crowd into the high school auditorium. He will be there tonight and his subject will be "The Tears, Tragedy and Triumph of Belgium," and other aspects of the war.
Mr. Wilson is one of the foremost orators on the Pacific coast and he is devoting his time and talent to educating the people to the seriousness of the situation in which we are placed, and the necessity of every person doing his share in the crisis through
MEATLESS DAY ENFORCED
BY OFFICIAL ORDER
Meat Markets Displayed Only Poultry,
Fish and Oysters Tuesday
Tuesday was almost a holiday to the meat market men of Anaheim, but it was a disappointing day to a number of their customers, because the head of the house or her substitute, the man of the house, could not go into the market, nose around the show cases and select what she or he wanted for dinner. It was meatless day, and all the shops and groceries received peremptory orders at three o'clock on Monday to make it a meatless day, regardless of the demands of the customers. The dealers, who were the losers, had no complaint to make, taking the matter philosophically, but some of their customers were exceedingly wroth, and doubted the constitutionality of an order that denied them the privilege of purchasing whatever they desired if they had the money to pay for it. All the shops were supplied with poultry, fish and oysters, but, naturally, many shoppers yearned for beef and pork and mutton when they discovered that it was unattainable.
People will perhaps realize shortly that we are at war and the government is empowered to exercise extraordinary prerogatives in time of war. We have been urged to abstain from eating exportable meats one day of each week in order to conserve such food for export to our needy allies and our soldiers abroad. We have been many of them as can crowd into the high school auditorium. He will be there tonight and his subject will be "The Tears, Tragedy and Triumph of Belgium," and other aspects of the war.
Mr. Wilson is one of the foremost orators on the Pacific coast and he is devoting his time and talent to educating the people to the seriousness of the situation in which we are placed, and the necessity of every person doing his share in the crisis through which this nation is passing. He handles his subjects without gloves, and although he abuses no one he put up a convincing argument to prove that democracy is battling for its existence against a ruthless autocracy that would crush it beneath the iron heel of despotism.
Mr. Wilson is giving this lecture for the benefit of the Anaheim Red Cross The Red Cross is the greatest organization in existence today, the Anaheim chapter is doing its share of the work.
Admission twenty-five cents. The entire proceeds of the sale of tickets will go to the Anaheim Chapter, of the American Red Cross, to buy materials to keep up the work which the members are doing. No deductions will be made for any expense.
The address will be worth to you many times the price of your ticket, and you will be helping the Red Cross. Thus your money will be doing double duty.
Get your tickets early from the members of the Anaheim Junior Red Cross, under whose auspices the meeting will be held. Tickets are also on sale at Witman's jewelry store, Mullinix's pharmacy, Heying's pharmacy and the Anaheim pharmacy. Admission 25 cents.
EAT PLENTY OF POTATOES
"Now that the country's bumper potato crop is flowing into the markets in an ever increasing stream the wise housewife will take advantage of this cheap source of starchy food and will give the tubers a very important place on the dinner table," say the experts of the United States department of agriculture.
It is well known that potatoes are a nutritious and healthful food, of which one may eat freely without ill effects. As a matter of fact, say the specialists there is something more which can be said for the potato, for the liberal consumption of them helps to supply the body with alkaline sols which it needs."
People will perhaps realize shortly that we are at war and the government is empowered to exercise extraordinary prerogatives in time of war. We have been urged to abstain from eating exportable meats one day of each week in order to conserve such food for export to our needy allies and our soldiers abroad. We have been unpatriotic enough to ignore the request, now we are up against a command which must be obeyed. Most of our people have been obeying the request and making this small sacrifice without a murmur. Those who have ignored it will hereafter be compelled to obey it. It is not much of a sacrifice to ask of us, but it means much to those who are struggling on the battlefields of Europe to maintain our liberties.
According to the official check at the county clerk's office, there are 346 signers in this county to the initiative petition seeking to have the so-called Rominger bill placed upon the ballot for a vote of the people. The bill is one that seeks to do away with retail saloons. It is supposed to have the backing of the wine interests. The petitions were circulated in this county by G. B. Brown in Santa Ana and by Mrs. Elloine Aufdenkamp in Laguna Beach.
Every ticket sold for the Stitt Wilson meeting Thursday evening means 25 cents for Anaheim Chapter Red Cross. No part of the money will be used for expenses. There will be no expenses to pay—everybody is doing his part for love of the Red Cross.
Many of the conscripted men who fail to answer to roll call and are therefore listed as failing to show up in answer to the summons for examination, are already in the service. For instance the roll of absentees last week contained the name of Harvey Johnson. Harvey, who was an employee of the Graham Furniture company, voluntarily enlisted months ago and is now on duty either in a training camp or in France.
For two or three years there has been talk of Anaheim and Fullerton joining forces and maintaining a first class ball team. It appears that the scheme is about t be realized, as it was decided at a joint meeting held in this city Friday evening to organize the team. The first few games will be played in Fullerton, but the latter end of the season the Anaheim grounds will be used. Irish Meusel of the Los Angeles team will be the manager, and expects to have the best amateur team in the state.
