Ralph Kemp, who has been employed at the Mullinix drug store, has entered the University of Southern California where he is specializing in dentistry. He is within the draft age and will also take military training at the university. Mr. and Mrs. C. O. Rust and Percy Rust returned on Monday evening from a five-weeks' tour of the north. They traveled in their own car, and went as far as Vancouver, visiting in San Francisco, Portland, Seattle and other points on the way. They met many old-time friends in Oregon, where Mr. Rust formerly resided. He some weeks ago closed down his winery, and disposed of his stock of wines and liquors. His father was one of the pioneer wine-makers of this city, and he continued the business for many years. He will retire from active business pursuits, and will devote a portion of his time to recreation and travel. Sister Hedwig has arrived from Ukiah, Mendocino county, and has taken charge of St. Catharine's academy, being the new sister superior of that educational institution. She succeeds Sister Hyacinth, who for 24 years past has been sister superior of St. Catharine's and goes to Ukiah to be sister superior of a boys' academy in that city. Sister Hedwig has 21 Dominican sisters with her in the academy, who are teaching 120 boys, the youngest being an infant of 17 months, whose father has gone to the war. Sister Hyacinth has many warm personal friends here, who have formed a high regard for her during her long residency. Evidently propaganda in Germany is to the effect that German-born residents of the United States are being badly mistreated, for Eric Dross, a German soldier wounded three years ago, has sent a cablegram to his brother, Warner D. Dross, of Irvine, asking his address and that of another brother, Bernhart, now living at Ocean-side. The cablegram, dated August 8, was brought from Germany by the Red Cross and forwarded to Warner Dross by the United States government. Warner has been foreman of the warehouse at Irvine for the past seven years, and has long since foresworn all allegiance to Germany. His brother at Oceanside has taken out his first papers. This is the first word Warner has received from Germany in three years. He is a life member of the Red Cross, and is said to be the first local member to whom such membership was issued. Whatever fears the brother in Germany may have as to his relatives in America will be set at rest just as soon as wires can carry the information to him that they are "their own bosses," just as they have been ever since they landed in America. It was B. H. Dross, it will be remembered who paid $100 to Judge Howard for making derogatory remarks about the Camp Kearny soldier boys and the Santa Ana young ladies. Watch your neighbor's grove as well as your own. This is the advice of Sheriff Jackson to local walnut growers, who have been bothered with numerous cases of walnut stealing. A watch is being kept for Mexican thieves, who usually make raids during the picking season, and a campaign is also on against petty thefts by people who stop their automobiles beside orchards and pick up nuts from the ground.

Sister Herwig is a lady of fine educational attainments, and will no doubt continue the academy up to the high standard of excellence which has characterized it in the past. When Dr. Utter returned home from a call the other day he found a beautiful new piano standing in his parlor. The doctor hadn't purchased the instrument consequently he was at a loss to account for its presence in his house but finally concluded that some grateful patient had made him a present of it. In the meantime the Schmidt Music Company was having trouble. A customer who had ordered a piano and ordered it sent home had not received it on schedule time, and wanted to know why with a big interrogation point. Schmidt replied that it had been delivered promptly and must be somewhere about the premises. It couldn't be found, and a search of the neighborhood was instituted. It was finally located in Dr. Utter's house and removed to its proper home at the ghastly hour of midnight, to the disappointment of the doctor. The Eastern Star chapter initiated six new members at the meeting Monday evening. Anaheim business men are not profiteering. J. W. Bell, of San Diego, stopped off here for a few hours last week to see what the prettiest town in the west looked like. While meandering about town he dropped into the Schmidt Music Company's establishment, and was struck by the prices at which standard instruments were offered. He purchased a fine piano and ordered it sent to his home in the southern city, explaining that he could pay the freight and still save a considerable sum by purchasing here. Mr. Bell writes that three of his friends are coming from San Diego to buy pianos here. Jose Garcia's story as to how eight or ten watermelons come to find their way from Eugene Griset's patch into Garcia's wagon failed to take with Judge Cox. Griset said he saw Garcia near his patch, and saw two other Mexicans leave the wagon, go into the field and return with gunny sacks filled with melons. Griset and Bruce Hayes grabbed the outfit, but two of the Mexicans escaped. Garcia played innocent. He was just driving along the road when these two Mexicans asked for a ride. They were carrying heavily loaded sacks. He accommodated them, and got into trouble. Cox found Garcia guilty of petty larceny and gave him 15 days in jail. Ed.

A new industry for Laguna Beach. There is being installed a potash plant here which promises to be a permanent business for the town. It is being started in a small way with plenty of room for enlargement. Judge Philbrook, who first advanced the idea for an Orange county kelp plant two years ago, and created quite an interest in the associated chambers of commerce at that time, is a heavy owner in the present undertaking. The present furnace has only been tried for half a day thus far, but it proved successful beyond expectation. Very soon now Orange county can obtain fertilizer from its own shores and plenty of it. Nine graduates of the Anaheim high school have entered the junior college at Fullerton. They are Minnie and Elizabeth Mang, Florence and Mabel Myers, Stanley Falkenstein, Faye Kern, Sara Mattis, Adole Howard and Kathryn Steward.

In Anaheim preparations are making for a blowout in which all the schools will participate. George Kemp writes to the folks at home that recently while crossing the channel from England to France the vessel on which he was sailing was attacked by a U-boat.

Lovers of the terpsicorean art hereabouts are invited to attend a National Guard ball to be given at Santa Ana next Wednesday evening, October 2, by the newly-formed National Guard company in the county seat city. The dance will take place in the armory, corner Third and Spurgeon streets, formerly Hebard's dancing academy. The admission will be 50 cents per couple, and the proceeds will be used to help purchase uniforms to be used for the two or three months which will elapse before government uniforms and equipment are received. The uniforms will be first used during the Fourth Liberty Loan parades. Scattered beans left in fields are not public property. They do not belong to any person who may happen to come along and pick them up. Those beans are worth 12 cents a pound, and to carry away those beans means petty larceny, and if enough beans are carried away the offense may rank as grand larceny. These days "beans is beans." Sheriff Jackson has been informed that ranchers have found numerous parties in their fields gathering up beans. Ranchers are nearly all planning to have their fields gone over around thresher stands, and they propose to commence at once with arresting people who go upon the fields without permission.

All offices in the city hall were closed yesterday afternoon out of respect for David Hamler, assistant city engineer. A long line of decorated automobiles headed by a caliope, paraded the streets Tuesday making considerable racket. The autos were loaded with Huntington Beach citizens, male and female, boosting for the second annual fair. SEVEN WAYS FOR DAILY SUGAR SAVING 1. Use fresh fruits without sugar. 2. Cook dried fruits without additional sugar; they already contain sugar. 3. Can more fruit without sugar; put up fewer jams and jellies. 4. Use less sugar in tea and coffee; you will soon learn to like it better. 5. Avoid such sugar luxuries as candy, cakes, chewing gum, sweet drinks and sodas. 6. Use honey, maple sugar and syrups and other sweeteners when available. 7. Cut out all desserts or other dishes that require much sugar. SEVEN WHYS FOR SHORT SUPPLIES 1. Our great war program has reduced our sugar-carrying fleet. 2. The sugar requirements of our overseas army are very large. 3. Our own sugar crop is less than we expected. 4. The small island, Cuba, must feed the world with sugar. 5. We have diverted 50,000 tons of sugar shipping in order that Belgium should have food. 6. Germans have destroyed sugar beet fields and factories in northern France and Italy. 7. More than 50,000,000 pounds of sugar have been sunk off our shores by German submarines. ANNIVERSARY W E E K! THURSDAY FRIDAY SATURDAY Annual September Sale of BLANKETS See Windows for Particulars Falkenstein's Department Store TRI-CITY SEWER A tri-city sewer system with outfall in the ocean, is advocated by City Trustee George McPhee of Santa Ana. At a meeting of the trustees Monday evening he said: "The time is coming when Santa Ana must provide a better system for conveying sewage to the ocean," said he. "Anaheim also must provide better facilities for taking care of its sewage. It has been suggested that we might arrange a tri-city outfall, with Anaheim and Orange joining with Santa Ana in the construction of a line to the ocean. We have a right of way to the ocean with the exception of about a quarter of a mile at the ocean end. It occurs to me that since the other towns are having more or less trouble with sewage disposal, it would be a good plan for us to co-operate—it would save all of us money. It may be that the contour of the land would not permit Anaheim joining on to a system from this city—that is something that I do not know about at this time, but investigation could be made to see whether it would be feasible for Anaheim to join with us. Orange could do it very nicely. "We should work out the plan and then submit it to the other two cities. I believe we should take action now, looking to the future. In the original discussions of extending an outfall sewer to the ocean from this city, the cost of such a line was estimated at $65,000. Later these figures were changed to $100,000. With the other towns joining, the cost to us would be much less, and among all of us it would cost each city very little. I move that a committee be appointed to investigate and see if the grades are such that Anaheim could be handled through this city, what the probable cost would be and to see what can be done toward accomplishing this much-desired, tri-city outfall sewer system." McPhee and Tubbs were appointed the committee authorized by the adoption of McPhee's motion. PITS AND SHELLS FOR GAS MASKS The War Department has requested the boys' and girls' clubs of the country to help collect fruit pits and nutshells, the carbon in which is used in making gas masks. Contests have been suggested among the million club members of the United States Department of Agriculture and the state agricultural colleges, which conduct the club work, to see which member, which district, and which state can deliver the largest amount of material in the shortest time. Each member should try to furnish at least 200 peach pits, or 7 pounds of shells—enough material for one mask. Since more and better carbon is secured from the pits of peaches, prunes, and plums than from other sources, boys and girls should make it their special business to see that every home in their communities save the pits of these fruits. They should also visit community and commercial canneries, hotels, restaurants, and bakeries. In addition, seeds should be collected from dates and olives, and shells and whole nuts be saved from hickory nuts, butternuts, English and native walnuts, and hazelnuts. The material may be delivered to the local Red Cross headquarters, which are acting as central stations for collecting and shipping. Miss Jessie Boyd, who is attending the state normal, spent Saturday and Sunday with friends here. Put your wardrobe on a war basis That means that the clothes you do buy should be the kind that make the best possible use of the labor and materials put into them. It means clothes that not only wear a long time but keep their shape a long time. It means "conserving" clothes. Hart Schaffner & Marx make that kind and we sell them Now if you're going to buy clothes at all—and you shouldn't unless you absolutely need them—that's the only-kind you've a right to buy—clothes that save. It's "dollar economy," too. You pay a little more now—but they wear so well you spend less in the long run. BY ALL MEANS GET A FIT F.A.YUNGBLUTE THE BEST GOODS Home.of Hart Schaffner & Marx
