Store According to a remittitur received at Santa Ana the appellate court has sustained Judge Thomas' decision in the action of the Citizens' Trust and Savings bank of Los Angeles, guardian of F. B. Tuffree, against John C. and S. J. Tuffree, executors of the will of Carolina B. Tuffree. Property at Placentia was involved. A deed was given by Fred B. Tuffree to his mother years ago. Some years afterward the Los Angeles bank alleged that the deed was given in trust. This the executors denied, and successfully sustained in Judge Thomas' court. The bank took an appeal from the decision. The judgment in favor of the defendants stands. The late E. E. Keech was attorney for the defendants. Last May permission was granted citizens to block off a section of West Center street, in front of the high school, where a patriotic celebration was held. On each end of that block a rope was stretched across the street. That evening J. R. Henry driving toward town ran into the rope on the west end, which caught him under the chin and violently threw him from his vehicle. He received injuries which necessitated the services of a physician. He presented a demand to the city in the amount of $25, which was ordered paid, the gentleman stating that he would absolve the city from all blame, and it is not at all likely that a suit for damages will be instituted. Dolman Robinson of Brea is charged with receiving stolen property. It is alleged that five Goodrich tires worth over $50 apiece were stolen on May 6, and on May 8 Robinson is said to have bought two of them for $25. It is alleged that Robinson knew the tires were stolen. September 3 has been set as the time for the trial of the suit for $25,000 damages brought by Mrs. Mary Ammerman of Los Angeles against St. Catherine's school here because her John Ziegler was in Los Angeles on business Monday.

Foster Chambers, who has been stationed in the Philippines for several months past, writes to his parents, Mr. and Mrs. William Chambers, that he is on his way to the United States. The unexpected rain storm that blew in from the southeast at noon Monday was a welcome visitor to people who are raising war gardens. Mr. Dickel reported .31 of an inch of water fell, according to his gauge. C. S. Troutman, Oliver Hill and J. E. Baker, accompanied by their wives went down to Newport Beach Monday night and gathered in a few basketsful of grunion. Mr. Troutman says it was an interesting spectacle to see the little fish dancing about the sand on their tails. Rev. H.

It is alleged that Robinson knew the tires were stolen. September 3 has been set as the time for the trial of the suit for $25,000 damages brought by Mrs. Mary Ammerman of Los Angeles against St. Catherine's school here because her bay, Joseph, was punished for running away from school. The complaint alleges that the boy was severely beaten. The defendant's attorneys have asked for a jury. Two Anaheim boys, brothers, aged 16 and 17, were arrested for stealing sacks from a ranch house on the Ball road near the river. Motorcycle Officer Ballard, in response to a call, went to the place and found the boys with a rig loaded down with sacks. The boys were on their way to Orange. They were taken to the sheriff's office and admitted the theft. To quiet title to a lot at El Modena, Adolph Thomas has asked for letters on the estate of Thomas N. Harper, who died in 1898. The interest in the lot is worth $50. H. V. Weisel is attorney for the petitioner. The will of Fidel Bueche, who died at Anaheim, was filed for probate by Attorney H. V. Weisel. The estate, valued at $5200, is left to his daughter Mary Dillon of Anaheim.

Nagel, Dr. F. H. Houck, Dr. Deming and others spent a few days at Kingman, Ariz., inspecting the mining property in which they are interested. The mine, the principal output of which is molybdenum, promises to be a very valuable one. Mrs. T. Anderson of Placentia, gave a dinner Monday night in honor of her son, Frank, who is at home on a furlough. Frank belongs to the aviation corps and is now stationed at Sacramento. The guests present at the seven course dinner provided by the hostess were Mr. and Mrs. R. Anderson, Miss Lucy Ziegler, Miss Schumacher, Tony Christenson, Raymond Johnson and Mr. Jackman. After dinner the party spent the evening playing cards. Peter Wohlgemuth died at his home on North Olive street early Thursday morning. Mr. Wohlgemuth has been ill health since the death of his wife two months ago.

Both men a LOCAL NOTES Glenn Wright is somewhat peeved over the fact that a number of his friends and acquaintances jumped to the conclusion that he was the party who ran his auto into a bunch of the Home Guard during the drill at Fulerton on Monday evening, May 20th. W. E. Wright, the man responsible for the accident in which four officers were injured, is a newcomer, consequently as Glenn and his family are the only Wrights known to a majority of the people, many supposed that he was the guilty man. W. E. Wright was held by Justice Cox Wednesday on a charge of driving a car while intoxicated, his trial being fixed for June 11. He was released on $1500 ball, Carl Simmons and J. N. Strawn being his sureties. The injured men are all recovering. Sheriff Jackson is again urging dealers and others not to sell revolvers or other arms to Mexicans. Particular attention has been called to a condition among some of the Mexicans in the Placentia section. It is declared that an Anaheim d ealer has been selling revolvers to Mexicans, in spite of the requests of the officers that that kind of trade be shoved aside. Carl George Hedstrom, who entered the naval service at the navy recruiting station, Los Angeles, as seaman, second class, will soon be serving his country at the front. The navy needs more such men in all its branches, enlistments being for the duration of the war. Draft men not called to duty may enter the navy.

All members of said association intergested in its future welfare are urgently requested to be present at said meeting. Eric Lamhofer, son of Dr. E. Lamhofer, of Fullerton has enlisted in the United States Marine Corps, and is now at Mare Island. He is aged 27, and would not have been called into service for another year. He applied for admission to the officers training corps some months ago, but found that there were many more applicants than there were vacancies. He received a very nice letter of commendation from the commanding officer, and not caring to wait until he was called in the draft, left on Friday afternoon for Mare Island. A number of autos were red tagged Saturday evening: the offenses charged being for violation of ordinance regarding lights, open mufflers and speeding. All persons were summoned to appear before the recorder Monday morning when fines were assessed.

Roy is head usher at one of the local moving picture theaters, and says if he was a few years older he would go in for aviation. Marshal Wood desires to put on a speed cop a few days each month as a means of checking up some of the speed maniacs.

He generally finds Anaheim dealers complying with the law. Dee Jackson and wife left Sunday for Yucaipi, where they will engage in growing fruit, principally apples, on Dee's ranch, which he acquired a few years ago. His apple crop this year, he says, is going to be a heavy one. The senior class of the high school held a picnic at Orange county park Wednesday evening, about thirty students being present. Barbecued steak was the chief dish at the feast, and it was hugely enjoyed. Henry Gerdes, of Fargo, N. D., accompanied by his daughter, Miss Ella Gerdes, is visiting his brother, William Gerdes, on the latter's ranch on South Los Angeles street.

The navy needs more such men in all its branches, enlistments being for the duration of the war. Draft men not called to duty may enter the navy. Postmaster Ahlborn or the recruiting station will be glad to furnish information at any time. The trustees of the Fullerton high school voluntarily raised the salary of the thirty teachers and five employees of the school at the last meeting. Each teacher will receive $75 additional and each employee $120 more for the coming year. The total increase amounts to $2,850. The Union Oil Company's service station has been moved from the corner of Lemon and Center streets to its new location on South Lemon in the rear of the Valencia hotel. Messrs. Roberts and Kraumek will shortly begin the erection of their new business block on the corner formerly occupied by the station. Rev. George B. Reaben, who left Anaheim several months ago with the intention of walking to Jerusalem, writes to friends that he has reached New York and is now engaged in Y. M. C. A. work. He expects to go to France and assist the Y. M. C. A. at the battle front until the close of the war, and will then probably continue his trip to the Holy Land. J. H. Clabaugh has received a letter from his son, Lieut. Earnest Clabaugh, stating that the lieutenant was one of fourteen officers ordered to return to the United States for the purpose of teaching in the officers' training camps. He has been at the front in France. The labor situation is growing acute in some sections. It is hard to get good men to work on ranches, even at the rate of wages now prevailing. Time was when a ranch hand began at sunup and quit for the day long after sundown, but now things have changed. W. G. Damon, a former Anaheim newspaper man, was visiting friends here Sunday. He is now editor of Our Roy Betzold has invested in a motorcycle and devotes his spare time in riding about the country and enjoying himself. Roy is head usher at one of the local moving picture theaters, and says if he was a few years older he would go in for aviation. Marshal Wood desires to put on a speed cop a few days each month as a means of checking up some of the speed maniacs. West Center street and Broadway are said to be fine speedways and recently forty miles an hour has been a common occurrence on those highways. Of course, this will have to be stopped. Charles Peltzer and family are leaving the first of the week on an overland trip to Kansas. Mr. Peltzer has four hundred acres of wheat on his ranch near Hutchinson and he will remain in the Sunflower State during harvest. Reports are that the wheat crop in that region will be the heaviest ever grown. All Methodist churches of Orange county will unite on Saturday, June 15, in holding their annual picnic at Orange county park. The date was chosen by the pastors who met recently at Anahelm and again at Huntington Beach. There will be contests and good speaking. The Rev. Harcourt W. Peck is chairman of the committee on arrangements and Rev. John Hall of Orange is secretary. Emil Crespin, our soldier light weight boxer, defeated Daniel Brown in a fast six-round bout at Cambria A. C., Camp Kearny on Saturday, May 18, putting him out with a straight left to the head and a right uppercut on the body. Crespin had his man in distress in the third and again in the last round. He was unmarked at the finish while Brown showed signs of tough battle. Emil is an Anaheim lad, and new at the game. Mrs. A. L. Porter, of Placentia, has been suffering from an attack of appendicitis. She was taken ill while visiting at Alambra, and Mr. Porter drove over and brought her home. She is gradually improving. Frank Duff and Johnny Walls motored from East Anaheim the other day on a business trip. Judge E. T. Langley, of Santa Ana, has filed suit for divorce against Occidentale Langley. In the window of the Security bank there was displayed last week an array of knitted goods, the handiwork of the Anaheim Red Cross chapter for the month ending May 20. There were 45 sweaters, 155 pair socks, 25 helmets, 10 wristlets and nine mufflers. There are 260 ladies devoting their spare time to this work, and they are using up a prodigious amount of wool. These goods will all go to the front or to camps for the use of the soldier boys. William Ferrand, of Fullerton, is seriously considering the advisability of telegraphing Mr. Hoover for permission to return to the use of wheat flour, which he recognizes as the finest kind of starvation diet. Since using substitutes of cornmeal, barley flour, oats and rice, he has taken on added weight to such an extent that he now tips the beam at 254 pounds. He has gained 14 pounds within the past few weeks, and while he is in the enjoyment of excellent health, he desires to reduce his weight and can not do so by using present substitutes for wheat. He says you cannot feed a hog on corn without fattening him, and considers that if he cannot secure permission from Mr. Hoover to return to a wheat diet he must beat it to the hills. The meek and lowly pedestrian long ago commenced to wonder where he got off when it comes to crossing a street, and as time goes on he is as much in the dark as ever. The way some auto speed maniacs cross the down-town streets is nothing short of a crime. A city ordinance says they must slow down to ten miles an hour, but the ordinance seems to be a dead one. It is not unusual to see machines go up and down the state highway at The labor situation is growing acute in some sections. It is hard to get good men to work on ranches, even at the rate of wages now prevailing. Time was when a ranch hand began at sunup and quit for the day long after sundown, but now things have changed. W. G. Damon, a former Anaheim newspaper man, was visiting friends here Sunday. He is now editor of Our Mineral Wealth, a newspaper published at Kingman, Ariz., in the interest of mining. Business men were forcefully reminded Monday afternoon that it would be well to clean up back yards and not allow rubbish to accumulate. A fire some day may get beyond control and they will be sorry for this negligence. The city trustees inspected the old city hall a few days ago with a view of having the structure repaired. It will cost about $2000 to reinforce and remodel the building. W. E. Russell has accepted a position as cashier in the Security Bank, in place of E. E. Smith, who has joined the colors. Attorney Fayette Lewis, of Los Angeles, was in town on business Friday. He was also attending to legal business at the court. Farm furloughs have been granted to Thomas P. Gisler of Huntington Beach for a period from May 16 to June 26, and for Ralph E. Huff of Anaheim from May 20 to June 30, on recommendation of the local board. Both men are at Camp Lewis. Mrs. A. D. Porter of Placentia, has been suffering from an attack of appendicitis. She was taken ill while visiting at Alhambra, and Mr. Porter drove over and brought her home. She is gradually improving.

The way some auto speed maniacs cross the down-town streets is nothing short of a crime. A city ordinance says they must slow down to ten miles an hour, but the ordinance seems to be a dead one. It is not unusual to see machines go up and down the state highway at not less than thirty miles and very often at a greater rate. These offenders are usually out of town people, who come sailing through this burg at a rate of speed that ought to land them all in jail. Numerous complaints of pedestrians are being made every day, but the speed maniacs keep coming and going as of yore. The other evening a man came within an ace of being run down by a big touring car at the intersection of Center and Los Angeles streets. The driver was making at least forty hours an hour going north at that corner, and if the man had not jumped he would surely have been killed. All the driver did was to toot his old horn and kept coming full speed. The pedestrian had to kangaroo it backwards or get bumped. Of course he has the privilege of swearing at the speed maniac, and usually does so in seven languages, and then some. It does not seem to be unreasonable to ask the police force to get busy on these down-town streets and make an arrest once in a while. That might help some. A jail sentence would go a long ways in cutting down the speedsters, and may be the means of saving a man's life. A number of citizens have suggested that the police gather in some of these law-breakers and give the people who walk a little consideration. SEMI-ANNUAL Days of White Saturday, June 1st The first day of this important event Every economical shopper will be here to take advantage of the many money saving opportunities this sale offers. Falkenstein's DEPARTMENT STORE Falkenstein's DEPARTMENT STORE CHILDREN'S HOME SOCIETY GETS SUBSTANTIAL BOOST School Children Collect Goodly Sum By Sale of Red Hearts Everybody in Anaheim has been accosted by school children during the past few days and requested to buy red hearts. Many purchased the hearts without stopping to enquire who this fund was being raised for, knowing that it would go to a worthy cause. The money will be used in aid of the Children's Home Society of California, and the campaign here was under the management of Mrs. Mildred B. Kennedy, one of the field workers. Mrs. Kennedy reports the amounts received through the various schools during the week's drive was as follows: Anaheim public schools ... $185.77 St. Joseph's Academy ... 52.89 Lutheran school ... 12.55 Orangethorpe school ... 23.83 Loara school ... 45.40 Total ... $343.89 Probably there never has been a time when an organization such as the Children's Home Society had a greater work to perform than the present. With thousands of fathers the world over who are being sacrificed in the interest of world democracy, it is evident that there will be thousands of children left either to care for themselves or to be cared for through the good offices of those who take vital interest in their welfare. All must realize that when the war is over there will come a great responsibility in bringing up from the ranks of the children of today the men and women of the next generation. C. B. Berger company has sold the 10-acre Valencia orange grove of H. Kittle on South Placentia avenue to Dr. John H. Boege. The home place of Dr. Boege on West Center street, was turned in as part of the consideration. The "young man" idea WE have it at this store; young men tell us so and they know.
