VOLUME XXXXVII NEW MEN LISTED FOR CALL TO COLORS JOHN SCHAFFER OF ANAHEIM, IS FIRST NAME DRAWN IN NO. TWO DISTRICT MANY OF THE REGISTRANTS HAVE VOLUNTEERED AND ALREADY GONE TO CAMPS At nine o'clock Friday morning drawing for serial numbers of the 744,000 men registered on June 5, began at Washington. Secretary Baker drew the first number from the glass bowl. It was 259, but as only 137 were registered in this district, it had no significance for us. The first number to come within our list of registrants was 10, it being the thirteenth drawn from the bowl. This was John Schaffer's number on the registration roll. John has been employed at Schneider Brothers' meat market. He didn't wait to be drawn, but enlisted last week in the navy. No. 29 was the second number to hit this district. 8 Wesley M.

What One Local Family Has Done to Conserve Food Supplies Here is what one Anaheim family has done in conserving wheat flour: The wheat flour ration as promulgated by Mr. Hoover, allots six pounds to a person during each month. This family consists of four persons, and is thus entitled to 24 pounds of wheat flour per month. A fifty pound sack of flour should therefore last the family two months. On the first of February a fifty pound sack of wheat flour was purchased, and this has lasted until the first of July, or five months. This is an average of ten pounds per month for the entire family. It cuts Mr. Hoover's ration in half, and then some. Corn meal, barley flour and rye flour are used, and the record made during the past five months will be beaten before September, when the new crop of wheat will be harvested. In the matter of meat supplies the family has cut Mr. Hoover's ration to the bone, as it were, and with all kinds of vegetables and berries in the market it is living on the fat of the land. It is easy. Cut out wheat flour, and conserve meats and win the war. In the line of vegetables there are new potatoes, string beans, green corn, sweet peas and many others, while berries were never so plentiful nor so delicious. Conserve food and win the war. Prof. C.

We have sustained our enviable reputation; we have demonstrated our patriotism to our country and our loyalty to the two hundred Anaheim boys who have gone forth to battle for us. We have won another blue ribbon plus. When the war savings stamp flying squadron started to work Monday morning of last week there was a wide gap between the amount of stamps already subscribed for and the figures which the government had fixed as our quota, but the committee applies. The judge is an eloquent talker, and his speech was listened to and loudly applauded by a large audience. Chairman McCord wound up the celebration with a short but pointed talk in which he patted the people of Anaheim on the back and congratulated them on again displaying their patriotism by more than fulfilling the government's expectations. He extended thanks to those who had worked so hard in the campaign, and to all who had so liberally subscribed. Chairman Ahlborn hands us the following statement to the public: Editor Gazette: Kindly permit me to express through the columns of your valuable publication on behalf of the National War Savings Committee, its appreciation in regard to the splendid services rendered by the loyal and faithful workers in the War Savings pledge campaign. The success of this campaign is entirely due to the untiring efforts of the Campaign Committee and the ready response of the loyal citizens of Anaheim and outlying districts. Leading business men and busy farmers laid aside everything and responded to the country's call. Words are inadequate to express the appreciation and heartfelt thanks of the chairman for the loyal support rendered by the ever faithful patrons. Due to their efforts, victory was achieved and the good name of this community again inscribed with flaming letters upon the roll of honor. Apportioned an allotment of $140,- SATURDAY NIGHT ON STREETS OF ANAHEIM THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE CONGEST THE SIDEWALKS AND OVERFLOW INTO STORES PASSING TOURIST THOUGHT THERE WAS A CIRCUS OR A CARNIVAL IN TOWN Saturday afternoon and Saturday night crowds on the streets of Anaheim are a source of amazement to visitors within our gates and tourists passing through. Whoever makes a voyage into the business section on Saturday night finds the sidewalks congested to an uncomfortable degree, and crossing one of the principal thoroughfares is a perilous undertaking. Not only the streets but the stores, shops, cafes and all business establishments are crowded with people, showing that the visitors come here to transact business as well as to see the sights.

During the five days the city and its suburbs was thoroughly combed the patriotic people generously responded, and when the exhausted workers compared notes Friday evening it was evident that Anaheim had again gone over the top, although the exact amount was not known. When the captain checked up Saturday morning the total subscriptions were found to be $142,462, which was $2462 above our allotment. Orange county lacked $77,000 of reaching its quota at noon Saturday, but Chairman McFadden stated that the commutes falling short would continue until they made good. "All sections are doing fine," said he "I believe that the county will go over before a halt is called in the campaign. In some of the districts the organization was a little slow in getting to work, but will make up for this later. The county drive has been a greater success than we anticipated and I am deeply grateful to the faithful men and women who have assisted in the drives."

Leading business men and busy farmers laid aside everything and responded to the country's call. Words are inadequate to express the appreciation and heartfelt thanks of the chairman for the loyal support rendered by the ever faithful patriots. Due to their efforts, victory was achieved and the good name of this community again inscribed with flaming letters upon the roll of honor. Apportioned an allotment of $140,000, based upon a population of 7000 for Anaheim and vicinity, this community went over the top with $142,642. The patriotic response of the banks of Anaheim made it possible to go over the top at the last moment with flying colors. As ever, the press was alive to the situation and kept the campaign well before the people. Kindly accept the appreciation of the chairman for the splendid work done by the Anaheim Gazette in helping to put this community over the top. Very respectfully, J. FREDERICK AHLBORN, Chairman National War Savings Committee, Anaheim. WALTER NAUGLE HOME FROM THE ISLE OF CUBA Spent Seven Months as Chemist in Large Sugar Factory ...After seven months spent in Cuba where he held a responsible position in a big sugar factory, Walter Naugle returned to his home here Saturday. He has signed up with the Anahiem Sugar company for the coming campaign, if the government prefers to have him serve as a fighter he will join either the army or navy. Walter was engaged as head chemist in one of the largest sugar factories in Cuba, located at Inginlo Jatibonico. The plant controlled sixty square miles of cane, and last season turned out 262,000 bags of sugar of 325 pounds each or $85,150,000 pounds. It employs an army of men, and is only one of 235 factories in the island, which gives some idea of the immensity of the sugar industry of Cuba. This factory is owned by New York capital. The superintendent was anxious to keep Walter on the job and offered him an increase in salary, but as he had reached his 21st birthday he determined to return to the United States and list himself for duty as a patriotic citizen. On the way home he stopped and regained Saturday night finds the sidewalks congested to an uncomfortable degree, and crossing one of the principal thoroughfares is a perilous undertaking. Not only the streets but the stores, shops, cafes and all business establishments are crowded with people, showing that the visitors come here to transact business as well as to see the sights. Anaheim people long ago formed the habit of doing their Saturday shopping early in the day in order to give up the night to the out of town people, therefore a very small percentage of those who are shopping after dinner Saturday nights are residents of this city. At the corner of Los Angeles and Center streets at nine o'clock Saturday night the writer hereof was accosted by an acquaintance. "Say," he rmarked. "I have been watching the traffic at this corner for an hour expecting to see an accident, but have been disappointed. At first I believed there should be a traffic officer here, but the people appear to be able to look after themselves, and he would only cause confusion. The way the cars weave in and out around that dummy, and the way pedestrians dodge machines, run for their lives and laugh at narrow escapes is really amusing. A few moments ago a big tourist car registered in a faraway state, was stopped by the congestion and one of the occupants asked me if there was a circus or a carnival in town which was causing such an extraordinary outpouring of the people. I told him that this was merely a normal Saturday night crowd and there was no special attraction to bring the people here. Furthermore I told him that Anaheim was known far and wide as an open town, that the latch string was hanging outward at the four gates, that we did not look with suspicion upon every stranger who came in, that we did not stop a visitor at the entrance until we smelled his breath and searched his clothing for contraband goods, and that all we asked of out-of-town people who came in to see the sights and transact business was that they obey the laws and ordinances of the city and make themselves at home. After I had made my spiel the tourist said he believed he would stop off and mingle with the people of a real live town for an hour or two." Saturday afternoon we met a friend from a neighboring town. He paused a moment to unburden his mind. "Take it from me," he said, rubboring up and down the street. "that this town of Anaheim is some five burg. I live at our envirulent reputation; we have demonstrated our patriotism to our country and our loyalty to the two hundred Anaheim boys who have gone forth to battle for us. We have won another blue ribbon plus. When the war savings stamp flying squadron started to work Monday morning of last week there was a wide gap between the amount of stamps already subscribed for and the figures which the government had fixed as our quota, but the committee was determined that Anaheim should make good before the close of the campaign Friday evening.

The Anaheim band and Fellings orchestra discouraged patriotic and stirring music for half an hour, but at half past eight it became apparent that the audience would not be as large as it should be considering that Judge Hugh Wells of Los Angeles was to speak, consequently Chairman McCord adjourned the meeting to the corner of Los Angeles and Center streets. After a short concert by the musicians Mr. McCord introduced Kenneth Goodale, the high school four minute man, who made a short but eloquent address on patriotism. Judge Wells then spoke at considerable length, his subject being thrift and economy. He cautioned the people to be careful in their purchases; to conserve in every manner possible, and to use nothing that could come in competition with the government's purchases of army sup- PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH Rev.

When allowing the employees of the city ten days' vacation this summer it was suggested by one of the trustees—perhaps in a spirit of jest—that the boys go out into the country and help harvest the crops, thereby doing their bit to help can the kaiser. Not a bad idea at all. Saturday afternoon we met a friend from a neighboring town. He paused a moment to unburden his mind. "Take it from me," he said, rubbering up and down the street, "that this town of Anaheim is some five burg. I live at (censored). I am loyal to my home city and wouldn't live anywhere else, but when I left there half an hour ago I could have fired a cannon down the principal street without endangering many lives. When I arrived here few moments ago I was compelled to find a parking place for my car on a side street. Anaheim is certainly a busy, bustling town." A couple of weeks ago, on a Saturday night, one of our citizens was accosted by a prosperous looking stranger. "This is Anaheim, is it?" enquired the stranger. "This is Anaheim," replied the citizen. "A thousand miles from here I was told by a resident, or a former resident of this town that Anaheim property owners had been compelled to cut off the fronts of their buildings in order to provide more sidewalk room for Saturday shoppers. I just considered that I had met one of those cheerful California liars one occasionally runs across in the east, but I recollected his story as I was passing through this evening and concluded to stop and investigate it. Is it true?" He was informed that that Anaheim BOONEDRY FORCES VEXED AT TURN OF AFFAIRS ORDINANCE FAILED TO RECEIVE SUFFICIENT AFFIRMATIVE VOTES OF THE CITY COUNCIL PROPONENTS BRING LEGAL BATTERY INTO PLAY TO SAVE MEASURE, BUT WITHOUT AVAIL The bone dry liquor ordinance is as dead as the proverbial door nail. When the measure was given a second reading at the trustees' meeting Thursday it appearing as originally drafted by Attorney Callor, Trustee Gibbs was the only member who signified a willingness to vote upon it. Trustee Backs in a well timed protest said he was in favor of referring the matter to the people. Mayor Dwyer and Trustee Stark so expressed themselves also. Trustee McFadden was unalterably opposed to the bone dry measure, as it was not an expression of the people as a whole. Consequently the ordinance was tab- A. NAGEL AND FAMILY HAVE NARROW ESCAPE Auto Forced into a Ditch by a Careless Driver Seven people narrowly escaped serious injury Sunday afternoon on the Huntington Beach road near Westminster, when their car turned on its side in a five foot ditch at the side of the road. The party included Mr. and Mrs. A. Nagel of Anaheim, their sister-in-law, Mrs. A. C. Nagel and daughter, Louise of Los Angeles, and George and Will Kohlenberger. The accident happened, it is said, in front of W. Dean Johnston’s place about 4:30 Sunday afternoon, as the party was on its way to Long Beach for the evening. Nagel, who was driving, claims a young man employed by Jonathan Bixby turned suddenly out of the Johnston driveway into the road directly in front of him. To avoid striking the machine Nagel turned his car sharply causing the left front wheel to throw its tire, and the machine careened over into the ditch, where it lay on its side. All the occupants were able to extricate themselves. Mrs. Nagel of Los Angeles received a blow on the head and was taken to Garden Grove for first aid treatment and from there to Anaheim. She is not seriously injured, it was report- it appearing as originally drafted by Attorney Callor, Trustee Gibbs was the only member who signified a willingness to vote upon it. Trustee Backs in a well timed protest said he was in favor of referring the matter to the people. Mayor Dwyer and Trustee Stark so expressed themselves also. Trustee McFadden was unalterably opposed to the bone dry measure, as it was not an expression of the people as a whole. Consequently the ordinance was tabled for lack of support. Immediately the dry leaders, of whom there were quite a number, repaired to an outer room and held a secret session. Later, Attorney Callor addressed the board and in deep stentorian tones wanted to know what the legal status of the ordinance was. Was it dead, or just sleeping? In backing up his stand Trustee Backs said, while he desires to be absolutely fair to all concerned, he considered the question one of too much importance to be settled by the board. As a pre-election agreement he stood for a clean, business like administration of city affairs, and he went on record as favoring a plan to allow the people to express their wishes upon the much discussed question. Mr. Backs said even if the Rominger bill, or any other dry or semi arid measure failed to carry in the state as a whole, but won locally, he stood ready for its enforcement here, whatever its terms might be. This was very good so far as it went, but did hot go deep enough to satisfy the attorney for the dry forces. The Rominger bill does not set well on the stomachs of the ultra dry element, and is looked upon as only a make shift. The dry proponent advised the council that there would be no liquor measure up before the people in November excepting the Rominger bill, and that only aimed to knock out the saloons. Locally the speaker wanted something most drastic, being desirous of seeing the liquor traffic put down and out for good. Attorney Ames holds the bone dry ordinance was defective in several instances, while Attorney Callor takes issue with him and says the measure is of theimon pure variety and will stand any legal attack. Then in order to get the ordinance definitely before the board, a reconsideration was ordered and Gibbs moved its adoption. Mayor Dwyer seconded the motion, but later seeing the impropriety of a mayor seconding a motion, that gentleman withdrew his approval, and Trustee Mackenzie and Lock Satur- of was accomhave been in a corner for an accident, At first he made a traffic appear to himself and invasion.

To avoid striking the machine Nagel turned his car sharply causing the left front wheel to throw its tire, and the machine careened over into the ditch, where it lay on its sidee. All the occupants were able to extricate themselves. Mrs. Nagel of Los Angeles received a blow on the head and was taken to Garden Grove for first aid treatment and from there to Anaheim. She is not seriously injured, it was reported today, and appears to be suffering only from nervous shock. None of the others were injured other than minor bruises. In a despatch from Washington some days ago, announcing the names of American soldiers who had been giveen the crux de guerre by General Foch for distinguished bravery at the battle of Cantigny, two Southern California men were listed. One of these was Captain William T. Crook of Anaheim. This name appears to be unknown here, consequently we are compelled to believe that his home address is somewhere else. Thinking perhaps the name was spelled wrong we investigated the Cook family but failed to locate the captain. Mr. and Mrs. Al Cook has two sons in the service, but neither answers to the name of William or has yet reached the rank of captain. Anaheim has a long list of boys in each branch of the service. We believe that each one deserves a cross of war, and many will win it before the conflict ends, but we regret to state that this city cannot lay claim to Captain Crook, who has already had his opportunity and won his decoration. The ordinance was declared lost, not having received an affirmative three votes out of the five, and it looked as though a torpedo had exploded in the dry ranks. Attorney Callor at once sought to revive the measure by pulmonic means, but disintegration had already set in and the case was hopeless. The attorney vainly averred that since the law had received two affirmative votes out of the three cast, he held the measure carried. Callor insisting still wanted to know what was the legal status of the measure. Attorney Ames announced that an ordinance to be adopted must receive at least three affirmative votes of the council of five. Callor was still objecting and persistent that his forces had won the day, but the city Continued on page 3
