A picturesque wedding scene was enacted in Santiago canyon Sunday, when Miss Jennie Dempke and Walter Mickle were united in marriage under a spreading oak, a large number of friends who were enjoying a picnic in the canyon being witnesses. The wedding was a surprise to most of the guests as they had assembled in the canyon to celebrate the wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Mickle and the birthdays of Mrs. Olga Boege and Mrs. Mary Orth. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Mary Hill of Los Angeles. Miss Blanche Mickle, sister of the groom, acted as bridesmaid and Charles Luedke as groomsman. The young couple left for the north on a wedding hike. The Anaheim Euchre club met at the home of Mrs. W. J. Cole Thursday afternoon, a two course luncheon being served at the close of the games.

Thursday Judge West heard arguments upon some of the points raised in the action in which J. V. Burr is suing C. B. Berger and H. O. Henderson of Anaheim for $4000. Burr asserts that he got a contract to clear seventy acres in Modoc county for the defendants, and says that $4000 is due him. The defendants allege that there was no contract for work, but merely an option to Burr by which he could buy the place. Legal points are to be submitted on briefs. The school board met Tuesday evening and took up the question of teachers and voted to retain all teachers; except Mrs. Riggs, in their present positions and at their present salaries.

The woman was arrested recently by Sheriff Jackson and Under Sheriff Iman at her home near the Anabeim sugar factory. A quantity of liquor was found buried at the corner of the house. The woman has been in similar trouble before, and her previous lesson seems not to have impressed her. The jail sentence may have a different effect. George H.

TO INSTRUCT MEN IN ATHLETICS Ralph McFadden Invited to Join Company of Athletes Leaving for France Ralph McFadden is in receipt of a letter from Jackson E. Reynolds who was formerly coach of the Stanford varsity football team, of which McFadden was a star member, asking him to join a company of college football men and other athletes leaving New York for France in the near future for the purpose of giving instruction in athletics to the American forces now in that country. Reynolds is himself a graduate of Stanford, and is now a corporation lawyer in New York City. He will not accompany the athletic instructors, but is enlisting many young men from this and other states for this mission. McFadden has not yet determined whether he will accept the offer, but his close friends and associates know that he is very anxious to go. He is one of the best known athletes in this section, and Reynolds is very anxious to enlist him for this important work with our Sammles abroad. "What is the compensation?" he was asked. "That is a secondary consideration," he replied. "I should like very much to go. If my services will help the cause, and I shall give Mr. Reynolds my reply in a day or two." HOME GUARD DRILL Monday evening is to be a big time at Fullerton, with a battalion drill and grand review of the three home guard companies of Santa Ana, Orange and Fullerton. More than 150 men are expected to take part, fifty from Santa Ana fifty from Orange and about sixty to sixty five of the Fullerton com- OIL FIELD NOTES By ELLWOOD J. MUNGER That the oil industry would shift to high gear and that a great development campaign would follow the rise in price of crude as predicted last week is being proven by the tremendous amount of new work that has been started this week. Never before in the history of the great Southern California field has there been as many locations for new wells made and as many wells started drilling as during the past week. Some thirty oil companies are now operating in the Brea, Whittler and Montebello fields and a survey of the work these 30 companies are doing is indicative of the fact that the spirit of win the war with oil is abroad. Over a hundred wells are drilling at the present time and the completions are averaging from three to five a week. This means that the production is being increased daily at from one to five thousand bbls a week. This week's daily increase of production amounts to better than 3000 bbls. Locations for new wells made known to the correspondent numbered 10. Immediate work will commence on at least half of them before the close of the week and the number of wells drilling if the present rate is kept up will go considerably over the 100 mark at the close of May. One of the most encouraging circumstances connected with the great oil industry of Southern California at the present time is the broad, manly and patriotic attitude that organized labor is taking toward the war situation and the production of oil. A few months ago it was feared that the industry and the nation might have to tend its boundaries and it is hoped that its work at Newport will meet with the deserving success. At a depth of 4400 feet the Union's Bastanchury No. 5 is being cleaned out, and after getting the casing fixed up it is believed that a test will bring out a well, although it may be a small producer. Theodore Ford was in town from his ranch near Orange transacting business and attending the Chautauqua Friday. INCREASED STOCK The national forests this year will be open to 500,000 more sheep and nearly 250,000 more cattle than in 1917. This will bring the total'of stock grazed under permit to about 9,000,000 sheep, 2,360,000 head of cattle and 51,-000 swine. This increase is in addition to one of 200,000 sheep and 100,000 cattle, made last year. PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Services next Sunday will have special reference to the Red Cross drive for next week. Rev. C. Blanchard Hatch will preach. Morning sermon at 11:00 o'clock. Subject: "The Grace of Citizenship." Evening sermon at 8:00 o'clock. Subject: "The Shadow of the Cross." Bible school at 9:45 a.m. Classes for all ages. Separate rooms. Y. P. S. C. E., Senior and Intermediate, 7:00 p.m. Conference and prayer Wednesday evening at 8:00 o'clock. Everybody cordially welcomed. THE CHURCH HELPS RED CROSS HOME GUARD DRILL Monday evening is to be a big time at Fullerton, with a battalion drill and grand review of the three home guard companies of Santa Ana, Orange and Fullerton. More than 150 men are expected to take part, fifty from Santa Ana fifty from Orange and about sixty to sixty five of the Fullerton company. Capt. E. W. Hanck of the Fullerton company and principal of the high school will act as major during the evening. The first event of the evening will be the battalion drill, to be staged on the Fullerton high school athletic field at 7 o'clock Monday evening. Following this, there will be a grand review on West Commonwealth avenue, Fullerton, the guards to be reviewed by the members of the County Council of Defense. An effort will also be made to have the city trustees of the three towns in the reviewing stand. Following the review, it is planned for the guard to march back to the high school grounds, where they will be dismissed. While no further details have been announced there, it is known that the Fullerton company is planning some sort of entertainment for the visiting guardsmen. An effort will also be made, it is understood, to get some of the Camp Kearny officers to be present for the drill and review, but as yet nothing definite along this line is known. Capt. A. E. Koepsel will command the Santa Ana company Monday evening and Capt. A. S. Ralph will be in charge of the Orange company. Both the drill and the review will be open to the public, and a large attendance of spectators is expected to be on hand to watch the maneuvers. MONEY FOR PRISONERS Money intended for interned civilians and prisoners of war in Germany should be remitted through the bureau of prisoners' relief, American Red Cross, Washington, D.C. Remittances so made will probably not be delivered to addresses by the German government in cash, but in the form of credit on prison exchanges. According to the Spanish ambassador at Berlin, the German war department states that there are no restrictions in regard to the remittance of money for civilian and military prizes. One of the most encouraging circumstances connected with the great oil industry of Southern California at the present time is the broad, manly and patriotic attitude that organized labor is taking toward the war situation and the production of oil. A few months ago it was feared that the industry and the nation might have to suffer on account of labor troubles. This fear is now groundless as every man connected with the production of oil is manly enough and patriotic enough to give his best interests to the nation and will do everything in his power to make the oil fields as productive as possible. The barriers between the employers and the employee are rapidly falling down, each is making an effort to understand the other better and in that way the oil interests of the state will give is best service to our government in this most critical period in the history of America. There are big hearted men in the industry and the tollers are not to be submerged. Development work on the Murphy lease is moving at full speed under the able direction of Superintendent Mullen. The Standard has 10 strings of tools drilling, is putting up a rig for a new well and during the past week has made locations for four new wells. Murphy No. 31 is drilling at 4007 feet and is beginning to look good. No. 34 is drilling at 4005 feet. At No. 35 a depth of 3344 has been made. No. 36 is drilling at 4024. No. 38 is making hole at 3980. No. 41 is being tested for water at a depth of 3980. No. 40 is drilling at 3311. No. 41 is standing cemented at 2985. At No. 42 a test for water is being made at 3460. No. 43 is drilling at 3385, No. 44 at 2215 and No. 46 at 1365. No. 46 a recent location is rig building. New wells locate dthis week are Nos. 47, 48, 49 and 50. Work on grading and putting material on the ground for the rigs will be underway before the end of the week. At Whittier the Standard is making rapid preparations for he drilling of two new wells. For No. 58 a new well recently located lumber is being hauled to the location. At No. 59 also a new well rig building is going ahead rapidly. No. 54 is being tested for water at 1818. Nos. 55, 56, and 57 are stinding cemented at 1996, 1678 lans and prisoners of war in Germany should be remitted through the bureau of prisoners’ relief, American Red Cross, Washington, D.C. Remittances so made will probably not be delivered to addresses by the German government in cash, but in the form of credit on prison exchanges. According to the Spanish ambassador at Berlin, the German war department states that there are no restrictions in regard to the remittance of money for civilian and military prisoners' credit, and may be spent under the following regulations: Military prisoners: Sixty marks a week may be spent by officers and others of similar rank; 50 marks a week by non-commissioned officers and men. Civilian prisoners: Sixty marks a week for men of better social position; 50 marks weekly for others. CLASSIFIED WANTED—Furniture and Household goods. We will pay cash or trade.

Nos. 55, 56, and 57 are stading cemented at 1996, 1678 and 1900 respectively. On the Savage lease in the Whittier field the Standard has four wells underway. No. 12 is being tested for water at 2642, as is also No. 14 at a depth of 3367. No. 15 is drilling at a depth of 660 the drilling is going a little slow on account of hard formation. No. 16 is making hole at a depth of 2665 and reasonably good progress is being made. On the Kraemer lease in the Brea field the Standard has cemented No. 1 at a depth of 2190, and set the 12½ inch casing. The opening up and the resumption of drilling on this well will be attended with a great deal of interest as the extension of the Brea field to the eastward will depend in a great measure on the success of this well. However the work of the Standard is attended with so few failures that it almost goes without saying that the big company will get a well. The Standard has completed a rig for a test well on the Irvine tract near Newport an drilling up work preparatory to drilling will be under way before the close of the week. The Standard has perhaps done more than any other company operating in the Southern California field to widen and ex- The New May Models in "Wirthmor" $1.00 Waists and "Welworth"$2.00 Blouses Go on Sale Today And they Are Better Than Ever Falkenstein's DEPARTMENT STORE Falkenstein's DEPARTMENT STORE J.
