According to witnesses Andrade either had Tuesday and spent a few hours transacting business in Anaheim. He has been spending the summer at his cottage at Balboa.

Edgar registered in the first call, June, 1917, lacking a day or two of being 31 on registration day.

Crook, that he has been assigned to duty in this country, has arrived in New York, and will probably visit his family in a short time. Some months ago it was reported in the associated press dispatches that Capt. W. T. Crook had been decorated for gallantry in action. His brother-in-law, Doc Stall, who knows all the particulars, says he invaded the enemy territory in command of 56 men, killed 300 Huns and returned with 86 prisoners. For this exploit he was awarded the decorations and also got his majority in the American army.

Merritt's birthday was remembered by her friends last Saturday and a number of them planned a surprise which they successfully carried out. They assembled at her home on South Philadelphia street, bringing a number of useful presents, and the afternoon was pleasantly spent. Refreshments were served before the guests returned to their homes. Requiem high mass was read at the chapel of St. Catherine's school at 9 o'clock Tuesday morning over the remains of Sister Stanislaus, who died Sunday afternoon at 5 o'clock. Sister Stainslaus came here four months ago in the hope of regaining her health, but failed to recover. The remains were taken to Los Angeles and interdier in Calvary cemetery. A dozen employees of the marmalade factory invaded the home of Jack Blair without invitations Monday night, but as they carried delicious refreshments with them they were heartily welcomed by Mr. and Mrs. Blair, and a very enjoyable evening was spent. Mr. Blair was formerly a member of the marmalade force but gave up his position a short time ago. This surprise was arranged for the purpose of expressing their appreciation of Jack by his former co-workers, and to extend good wishes for the future. W. B. Hutton, of Santa Ana, has sold through C. B. Berger Company of Anaheim a very choice bearing Valencia orange grove of ten acres, situated adjoining the city limits of Anaheim on North East street. The buyer is John Beat, recently from Electra, Texas, where he has extensive ranch interests. Mr. Beat is the father of six grown sons, all of them are thirty- We have nearly two million men in France. Are you helping them with your dollars? At a special meting of the Buena Park O. E. S. at the school hall in that place Tuesday evening, Rev. and Mrs. J. E. Fisher were initiated into the order. Mr. H. O. Henderson, patron of the O. E. S. of Anaheim, had charge of the initiatory work. Mrs. H. O. Henderson sang during the initiatory service, which made it very impressive. Guests from the Hollenbeck chapter of Los Angeles, and Anaheim chapter, were present. Late in the evening refreshments of watermelon and grapes were served. The effort of Waldo Guitterez, 14, to join his father, who is a soldier in France, led the boy to Juvenile hall, Los Angeles, as a runaway. Waldo was found by Patrolman Hodson wandering about Broadway searching for "the army." At Central police station Waldo drowsily told officers he had decided to run away from the home of his grandmother in Anaheim because she had scolded him. "Daddy told me before me went away how great it would be to help whip the Germans. I wanted to find him so I could help, too," Waldo said. Arrangements were being made to return the lad to the home of his grandmother to await the return of his soldier daddy. Ninety days in jail was the sentence given Jose Carrillo Friday morning when it was proven beyond question that he had thrown a rock into a load of beans for the purpose of wrecking John Cook's bean thresher near Irvine. Walter Bromlee, foreman, saw Carrillo throw the rock on to the wagon. Lawrence Ames testified that Carrillo said he wanted to put the machine out of business so he could get a rest. Wednesday the board of supervisors agreed to take $50,000 in Fourth Liberty Cross NOTES Every Red Cross member should be wearing a Liberty Loan button and taking an active part in the campaign so auspiciously begun. The "Linen Shower for France" has been postponed for the immediate present, but hsa not been abandoned. So have your contributions ready when the call comes in a little later on. The Greatest Mother needs it. The right kind of an education for the patriotic American will include a thorough course in the University of Red Cross Membership. School will open December 16. Have your books ready. "Turn Trash into Cash"—the salvage Bureau slogan—appealed to E. T. Cutter, division superintendent, Associated Press. The head office in San Francisco is conserving typewriter ribbon spools and Superintendent Cutler has suggested that all other offices in the western division do likewise. A Red Cross chapter recently sold 6,000 spools at 1½ cents apiece. If yo uare a member of the Red Cross, then you automatically become a member of the "Eating Club" which has over 2,000 services per month to its credit. This is none other than the canteen. The prime object of the canteen service is to be a visable reminder to the soldier of sailor that "somebody cares." No distinction is made as t o color or nationality. America and her Allies—that is sufficient. Supplies for Palestine authorized by the Red Cross war council include among other things six automobiles, and the commission for Italy finds it necessary to buy 45 additional camions, 20 motorcycles and 7 touring cars to provide facilities for moving relief supplies the coming winter: What the W. B. Hutton, of Santa Ana, has sold through C. B. Berger Company of Anaheim a very choice bearing Valencia orange grove of ten acres, situated adjoining the city limits of Anaheim on North East street. The buyer is John Beat, recently from Electra, Texas, where he has extensive ranch interests. Mr. Beat is the father of six grown sons, all of them are thirty-second degree Masons, two are in Uncle Sam's service in France and a third expects to go soon. Sixteen hundred dollars for the purchase of an ambulance has been donated by the students of the Orange Union high school. Orange and forwarded to the ministry of war of the French government by L. N. Brunswig of Los Angeles. The ambulance will carry a metal plate signifying that it was the gift of the high school. The donation is the eighth of its kind in Southern California. Mr. Brunswig hopes to complete a section of 20 ambulances of similar donations. An organized society is working in Los Angeles for this purpose. The twenty-ninth annual convention of the Orange County Christian Endeavor was conceded to have been the best attended in the history of the organization, the registration being 300 delegates and a large number staying throughout the two days' session. The convention was held on the Methodist church grounds at Huntington Beach, the delegates occupying the tents there. The Endeavor accepted the invitation of the Christian and Presbyterian churches at Anaheim to hold the convention in this city next year. Registration books from deputies all over the county have been returned to the county clerk's office, and the work of segregation into precincts has been practically completed. By the end of this week totals for the registration will probably be completed. The indications are that the registration between the primaries and last Saturday night, when registration for the general election in November ended, was not heavy. Off hand, it is estimated that the total registration for November of this year will not be as heavy as the registration for November two years ago. Monday morning eight prisoners suffaced by his former co-workers, and to extend good wishes for the future. Wednesday the board of supervisors agreed to take $50,000 in Fourth Liberty Loan bonds for the county. The matter was talked over with County Chairman Bisby and arrangements are to be made for the subscription. There is a possibility that more of the county's money can be invested in Liberty bonds. The money was raised for road purposes, but most of it cannot be used for road purposes until after the war industries board grants permission. Road work is held up all over the county. The officers have the name of the Mexican who shot Juan Lozano at La Habra a few nights ago, but they have not got the murderer. They are almost as shy on information concerning the shooting as they are as to the whereabouts of the murderer. There was a drunken row at the section house at La Habra. Loranzo was shot and died of his wound. Manuel Tofoyo disappeared and there is a warrant for him on a charge of murder. Bishop Thlerkield, presiding at the Methodist conference at Fresno, has made some important changes that effect the church in this section. Rev. H. W. White, who has been pastor of the church in Anaheim for the past two years, has been appointed superintendent of the Fresno district, and his removal to the northern city will be regretted by the people of this city, irrespective of their church affiliations. Rev. Humphrey, now of Monrovia, has been appointed to the pastorate of the Anaheim church. Rev. H. W. Peck of Santa Ana, goes to the first church at Phoenix, Arizona, and Rev. John Oliver, now district superintendent, takes his place at Santa Ana. Among the articles sent to Red Cross headquarters last week for shipment to Belgium Mr. Dickel found a ladies' muff and cap, both of sealskin and apparently new. When the boxes were shipped these articles were left out by mistake as they had been passed around for inspection, and it was not given beyond question that he had thrown a rock into a load of beans for the purpose of wrecking John Cook's bean thresher near Irvine-Walter Bromlee, foreman, saw Carrillo throw the rock on to the wagon. Lawrence Ames testified that Carrillo said he wanted to put the machine out of business so he could get a rest. Supplies for Palestine authorized by the Red Cross war council include among other things six automobiles, and the commission for Italy finds it necessary to buy 45 additional camions, 20 motorcycles and 7 touring cars to provide facilities for moving relief supplies the coming winter. What the motor vehicle has meant in this war has never been half told. But the man who drives the ammunition truck behind the lines can tell a rather complete story of it. Boost for the Christmas membership—with your first breath in the morning and your last one at night. In the crowd that waited for the second show at a San Francisco movie house was a soldier with a Red Cross button pinned on an empty sleeve. "I see you lost an arm," said a sympathetic by-stander. "No, I only gave an arm," replied the soldier. The silence that fell on the careless crowd was that of a chastening spirit and one could almost hear its accusing question—"What have you given?" Red Cross men did not stop their work as long as fighting continued in the battle of St. Mihiel, but as it progressed they moved ahead with the troops and got close up to the lines before the offensive began. Hot drinks were sent to the front lines in the ambulances that went after wounded. At one point between daylight and 9 P.M. 180 gallons of hot chocolate were served to fighters, and 120 gallons at another point. Heavy troop transportation sometimes overwhelms service at the Harvey eating house in San Bernardino, and on such occasions members of the Red Cross canteen committee assist in waiting on soldiers and sailors. Money received for this service goes to the canteen fund. For full 25 years—in fact since her wedding day—had Mrs. Blank, a prominent Red Cross worker of the Pacific division, kept that vase. Not always on view. After the first five years it occupied various nooks and crannies about the house and made the family uncomfortable at house cleaning time. Finally Mrs. Blank decided that the oldest inhabitant had forgotten it—and Monday morning eight prisoners suffering from the grip were taken from the county jail to the county hospital. There are several other cases of grip at the hospital, including the matron and three of the nurses. Monday another case was received at the hospital from Santa Ana. There are a number of other cases in the county. Another prisoner who was ill with grip was left at the jail, as there is room for no more patients at the county hospital until more beds are secured. This grip is considered by local physicians to be the Spanish influenza that has been spreading over the country. Its effects are not as hazardous here as they are in some other climates, yet it is an illness that calls for care and caution on the part of the patient, lest pneumonia develop from it. "This illness starts with a chill generally," said the hospital superintendent, "and fever goes up to around 104. Fever lasts four or five days and is attended with headache and aching of the entire body. Pneumonia may set in. Grip leaves the system in a weakened condition, and a patient should take good care of himself in getting over and after the grip. In general, the best that can be done by those who have not contracted the illness is to keep themselves in good, healthy condition." Among the articles sent to Red Cross headquarters last week for shipment to Belgium Mr. Dickel found a ladies' muff and cap, both of sealskin and apparently new. When the boxes were shipped these articles were left out by mistake as they had been passed around for inspection, and it was not learned until too late that they had not been packed in one of the boxes. Mr. Dickel thinks that the owner of these articles must have sent them in with other things by mistake. If so she can recover them by calling at Red Cross headquarters, but if they are not reclaimed they will be auctioned off and the proceeds added to the Belgian relief fund. The rains of the past week were not at all appreciated by the beet and bean farmers, who are getting a lot of worry out of the present situation. The beets, if not taken from the ground immediately, will suffer from low sugar content. Luckily, however, a small acreage only of the entire crop yet remains in the ground so not much damage can ensue here. The bean crop, however, is a different proposition, as acres upon acres of this product are unthreshed. The warm weather that came the first of the week gave time for all the bean piles to be turned and the majority of them were thoroughly dried out and ready for threshing when the last rain came, making the same process necessary again. As wages are high and help scarce, this added expense will detract greatly from the farmers' profit. For full 25 years—in fact since her wedding day—had Mrs. Blank, a prominent Red Cross worker of the Pacific division, kept that vase. Not always on view. After the first five years it occupied various nooks and crannies about the house and made the family uncomfortable at house cleaning time. Finally Mrs. Blank decided that the oldest inhabitant had forgotten it—and gave it to the Red Cross shop. Bll-ling went the telephone bell that evening. "By way, my dear, I saw a vase from your house at the shop. How did I know it? Why, I gave it to you myself as a wedding gift 25 years ago." This experience was something of a jolt, but the plucky salvage and shop chairman just laughs at it and has used it to overcome certain little prejudices that are unavoidable in the small town. The London chapter, American Red Cross, has founded the American Nurses' club at 42 Grosvenor place, London, which will be nurses' headquarters in England. Rooms are rented to members at 50 cents per night. ADVERTISED LETTERS ...

The exemption board of the Anaheim Liberty Loan Committee, after using every reasonable means to urge the parties mentioned to purchase their just share of Liberty bonds and to thus support our government in its undertakings, beg to submit the following cases for public consideration: "William Trapp, age about 55, rancher, Sunkist avenue, north of Olive road, R. F. D. No. 5, 20 acres oranges in bearing. Paid off a $4,000 mortgage from crop this year, we are informed. The record of the Anaheim War Finance Board show his purchases of Liberty bonds as follows: 1st, none; 2nd, $100; 3rd, $150. The committee is of the opinion that this party should support the community and our government by lending it at least $2,500 at this time secured by Fourth Liberty Loan bonds bearing 4¼% interest. He has purchased $150 and declines to do more. "William Bischoff, age about 60, rancher, near Katella school, 20 acres walnuts in bearing, estimated worth $75,000, crop estimate $6,000. Anaheim War Finance Board record shows that he has not purchased a single Liberty bond of any issue. He refuses to lend his money to our government and thus support the war, for religious reasons, although he said he does not belong to any church. He has a son in the army and one other son died while in training camp. He has been in this country for 35 years, but is registered as an alien enemy. The committee is of the opinion that this party should back his boy in the army, as well as support the community and our government by lending at least $1,000 to the United States of America at this time secured by Fourth Liberty bonds bearing 4¼% interest. He refuses to lend a red cent." The committee have other cases in process of investigation which will be given to the press as they are completed, in order that the public may know where to lay the blame, in the event of a failure on the part of our community to reach its full quota in Fourth Liberty bond purchases.
