Center Street, Anaheim PACIFIC PHONE 432 In Kistler Building, Opposite Old City Hall LOCAL NOTES L. S. Birdsall, of Pomona, son-in-law of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Eygabroad, has joined the Y. M. C. A. overseas service. Having a wife and two children he could not get on the firing line, but can do his bit in the "Y" service. B. R. Garland died at his home in this city Friday at the age of 78, the funeral being held at Backs & Terry's Monday afternoon. Mr. Garland was a veteran of the civil war, having served in the 9th Indiana battery. Interment was at Santa Ana. Major William T. Crook, who came in Sunday to visit his wife, left the following day for Camp Cody, where he has been sent as instructor. It was hoped that he would address the board of trade Monday evening and give some first-hand information regarding the war where he won three medals and a promotion, but he was compelled to leave Monday for camp. On two or three occasions bottles of made-in-Anaheim wine on exhibition at the board of trade rooms have disappeared, the glass case containing them having been pried open. This wine was presented to the board of trade years ago by T. F. J. Boege, and Fred Gresswell is so peeved over the loss that he has set a trap for the thief. He has drawn the corks of the remaining bottles, and loaded the wine with poison. Probably the stuff with which Gresswell flavored the wine will not cause instant death, but the man who takes a swallow out of one of the bottles will be compelled to send on S. O. S. for a doctor, consequently his identity will be discovered. Fred has posted a danger sign on the case but Burglars entered the postoffice Tuesday night, gaining entrance through a fan light which was broken open. Keys to the building, hanging on the wall were taken and the rear door was wide open when the force reached the office yesterday morning. It is not yet known whether any mail was carried away, but three packages containing candy were broken open and left, the thieves evidently looking for something more valuable. All stamps and money were safely locked up and consequently untouched. Postmaster Ahlborn is of opinion that nothing was taken away. Monday night thieves entered the Dedolph bicycle shop on Lemon street and stole $7 in money. Born, on Saturday, October 12, to Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Mauerhan, a son. California Valencias reached $19 per box in New York Tuesday, the highest price ever paid for oranges in the United States. Miss Allene Adams has been quite seriously ill for more than a week past, but was yesterday reported to be improving. Frank Davis received a letter yesterday announcing that his daughter, Mrs. F. H. Leonard, of Seattle, had landed at San Francisco, and was on her way south to visit him. Supervisor Schumacher has been engaged for some days past threshing his bean crop. He reports that the recent rains have not damaged his crop to any considerable extent. H. E. Hunt, who has been listed by the Liberty Loan Committee as a slacker, satisfied the committee Tuesday that he is a patriotic American by coming forward and subscribing for PERSONALS Loule Kroeger has broken into the clothing business again. He is now employed at Jackson's men's clothing establishment. Loule's many Anaheim friends will welcome him back to his old-time occupation. City Electrician Vard Hannum and wife are visiting at San Diego this week. Dale Quarton writes from Annapolis that he has been confined to the hospital with Spanish flu. More than a thousand cadets were down with the disease, he said, and only two deaths had occurred. C. C. Randall, of the Standard Minerals Company, is in Arizona this week inspecting the company's mines. Among those listed in Saturday's papers as killed in action in France, was John Blake, of Boscobel, Wis. He was a brother of L. C. Blake of this city. Mr. and Mrs. Gage Owen and baby, of Los Angeles, were visiting F. K. Gresswell Thursday. Mrs. Owen is a daughter of Mr. Gresswell. Mrs. Norris Cassidy, of Detroit, is visiting at the home of T. M. Hopkins. James Conway came down from Los Angeles the first of the week on a short visit to his wife and son who are spending some days with Mrs. Conway's parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Murray. Rev. W. E. Spicer, of Brea, has resigned his pulpit and joined the Y. M. C.A.for service in France. Mr. and Mrs. C. W. Hedges received a wire Wednesday announcing the death of their oldest son, Chauncey Hedges, which occurred at his home at Okmulgee, Oklahoma, at 4 o'clock that day. The first intimation Mr. and Mrs. Hedges had of his illness came through a telegram received two hours before his death, stating that he was suffering from pneumonia, and was very low. It is supposed that he had been stricken with influenza which later developed into pneumonia. He was 35 years of age and leaves a wife, his only child, a baby, having been buried a few months ago. Local exemption board No. 2 has completed its work of classifying all of the registrants from 19 to 36 years of age, inclusive of those years, and is awaiting the muster numbers from Washington that it may give each registrant his order number. The street dance and concert arranged by the Red Cross for Saturday night has been postponed because of Dr. Truxaw's proclamation forbidding public gatherings during the prevalence of Spanish flu. It will be taken up after the epidemic has passed away. Murdoch Henry came down from the north last week and will spend a month visiting his brother, Alex. Henry. He expects to begin Monday cutting off the front of his business building on West Center street, setting it back to the new line. A gang of men have been busy this week removing some of the masonry from the old city hall. Unfortunately they began at the top instead of the bottom of the ancient and decrepit old structure, and it is understood they will cease before the building is entirely razed. Supervisor Schumacher has been engaged for some days past threshing his bean crop. He reports that the recent rains have not damaged his crop to any considerable extent. H. E. Hunt, who has been listed by the Liberty Loan Committee as a slacker, satisfied the committee Tuesday that he is a patriotic American by coming forward and subscribing for bonds to the amount of $1,000. Just before going to press the Liberty Loan Committee reports that Anaheim’s subscription has reached $370,000. This looks good. Evidently the people of this community are determined that Anaheim shall not fall. Through the C. B. Berger Company Mrs. Gus Hansen has sold her fine ranch at Hansen Station to Guy Eddy of West Virginia. Ten acres of the ranch are in oranges and the new owner expects to put in another ten acres of valencias. This is a bad time for politicians, as political meetings are being called off. Governor Stephens was scheduled to speak here Wednesday, but the date was cancelled, and his opponent, Theodore Bell, has given notice that his slate has been disarranged. The sophomores of the Anaheim high school entertained the freshmen and the faculty of the school at the auditorium Friday evening. One hundred and fifty people were present. Second Lieutenant Walter Spaeth, well-known amateur actor formerly of Anaheim, and fraternity man who graduated from the University of Southern California with the class of winter '17, died October 11 of pneumonia, at the officers’ training s hool, Camp Zachary Taylor, Ky. He had been commissioned but a short time before. Quail season does not open October 15 or October 16 or any other date in October. It opens on November 15, and on no other date. These positive statements are made for the reason that there seems to be a goodly number of hunters who think the season for quail opens next week. They want to get that notion out of their systems mighty quick, for there are a lot of men in the county who are just aching to catch some fellow hunting quail out Mrs. Norris Cassidy, of Detroit, is visiting at the home of T. M. Hopkins. James Conway came down from Los Angeles the first of the week on a short visit to his wife and son who are spending some days with Mrs. Conway’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. C. Murray. Rev. W. E. Spicer, of Brea, has resigned his pulpit and joined the Y. M. C. A. for service in France. Ed. Crowther, of Placentia, was a business visitor in town a few days ago. Mr. Crowther estimates about one-half crop of walnuts, but says the quality is very good. Fred Dyckman has decided that there is more fun in growing oranges than in selling furniture. He has disposed of his interest in the Exchange Furniture Company to Emil Heyling and will move onto the ranch which he recently purchased at the corner of West and South streets. He has five acres of 9-year-old valencias. Truman Griggs, a former high school boy, son of A. E. Griggs, at one time proprietor of a grocery store here, has been granted a commission as second lieutenant in the army. He has been attending school at Camp Perry, Ohio. There will be no services nor Sunday school at any of the churches next Sunday, owing to precautionary measures against Spanish flu. Both剧院 are also closed this week, and the wisest thing the people can do is to remain at home at nights. The sample ballots will be mailed from the county clerk’s office the first of next week. Half of that ballot is propositions, and the largest portion of the remainder is made up of names of candidates who have no opposition. Among those without opposition is Walter Eden, who has the republican, democratic, prohibition and socialist nominations for assemblyman. For a time it was expected that George Bauer, of Anaheim, would get his name on the ballot as an independent. He failed to file a sufficient number of names to secure the nomination, but George still expects to be in the race and show Walter that he is not the only toad in the puddle.

Unfortunately they began at the top instead of the bottom of the ancient and decrepit old structure, and it is understood they will cease before the building is entirely razed. Dr. Clarence Beebe left Saturday for Camp Greenleaf, Va., to join the dental corps. Dr. Bebee and his wife were visiting relatives and friends here last week. City Attorney Harold Coyle, of Fullerton, has received a commission as second lieutenant in the army, having been studying at Fortress Monroe, Va. His predecessor in office at Fullerton, E. J. Marks, is now a major. Mrs. Mabel Thayer, wife of Charles G. Thayer, died at her home south of this city Saturday afternoon after a short illness, leaving a husband and two children. Funeral services were held at Backs & Terry's Tuesday, interment being in Loma Vista cemetery. Miss Marie Bend, of Hollywood, was visiting last week with Mr. and Mrs. Leo Sheridan. J. H. Wilson, who has been visiting his uncle, Robert Wilson, has moved his family from the east to Huntington Park. He recently made the trip to California from Chiago in a Ford, and brought his Uncle Bob home from the Loma Linda Springs, where he was taking treatment. Quail season does not open October 15 or October 16 or any other date in October. It opens on November 15, and on no other date. These positive statements are made for the reason that there seems to be a goodly number of hunters who think the season for quail opens next week. They want to get that notion out of their systems mighty quick, for there are a lot of men in the county who are just aching to catch some fellow hunting quail out of season. The sentiment in favor of soaking the sooner good and plenty is gaining ground as it never gained before, and hunters who wait until the season opens to do their shooting do not propose to let law-breakers spoil their fun. Forty-eight cases of genuine Spanish influenza existed in Orange county Monday, according to official reports to County Health Officer Domann of Orange. Two deaths occurred last week, the last death being that of Harry J. Calico of Fullerton, which occurred at the county hospital Saturday. The case was far advanced when taken to the hospital. In the opinion of Dr. Domann there are more cases than reported, as physicians have been a little lax in making reports. Five or six new cases have developed in the last twenty-four hours. It has been determined that every one of the cases taken from the county jail to the county hospital are genuine cases. There were twenty cases there Monday, six of which have developed into pneumonia. Dr. Zaiser, who is in charge of the hospital, took to his bed Monday and is reported as seriously ill. The hospital has been closed to visitors and anyone gaining admittance there will have to have urgent business. BUY TREASURY CERTIFICATES Internal Revenue Collector John P. Carter, sixth district of California, calls the attention of taxpayers to the advantages of purchasing now treasury certificates of indebtedness bearing 4% interest, and maturing July 15, 1919, in order that those who have income and excess profits taxes to pay may prepare themselves in advance for the large payments and to accumulate gradually the funds necessary to meet them. The collector has been advised by the secretary of the treasury that certificates of this issue will be accepted at par, with adjustment of accrued interest; under rules and regulations to be prescribed, in payment of income and profits taxes when payable at or before maturity of the certificates. "It is the aim of the government to make the floating of this issue of certificates of indebtedness a popular one," said Collector Carter, "and it will be to the advantage of those whose taxes are measured in comparatively small amounts, as well as the large corporations and wealthy persons, to participate in the purchase of these impregnable securities." These certificates may be purchased at the Federal Reserve Bank or at any bank or trust company. They are in denominations of $500, $1000, $5000, $10,000 and $100,000. HAVE YOUR NEW FALL DRESS Fitted over a "GOSSARD" CORSET For Sale only at Falkenstein's Department Store DRYING PUMPKINS AND SQUASH Well-matured pumpkins of any variety make an acceptable dried product which only requires soaking, for use later in pies or custards. The deeply-colored, solid-fleshed varieties are the best for the purpose. Squash in the winter varieties may also be cured in the same way. Cut into strips one-half inch wide, peel and remove seeds, then cut the long strips with a rotary slicer or by hand into slices one-half inch in thickness. Blanch in vigorously boiling water for three minutes, or preferably in steam for five minutes. A wash-boiler partly filled with boiling water and fitted with a support which will hold a wire basket containing the material just out of the water makes a good steamer. Some varieties blanch more slowly than others; the treatment should be continued until the pieces have lost the opaque character and have become transparent, but must be stopped as soon as this result is obtained. Spread one or two pieces deep on the trays and begin the drying at 135 degrees. As soon as the pieces have become somewhat plastic the temperature may be increased, but should not be allowed to exceed 160 degrees at anytime. The material should be stirred frequently in order to discover and spread out any parts which are not drying properly. If the drying is done in the sun it will be necessary to spread the material in a single layer and to turn the pieces over after a few hours' exposure. Pumpkin or squash should be dried until the pieces are leathery and show no moisture upon the freshly cut surfaces when bits are cut open and strongly pressed between the hands. As the material is removed from the drier, place it in a large clean pasteboard or wooden box, lined with paper, and cover to exclude insects by stretching a piece of mosquito netting over the top. Place the box in a warm, dry room and stir the material thoroughly daily, for ten days. The drying meanwhile slowly continues and the whole mass reaches the uniform condition which it must have before it is permanently packed. Pack in pasteboard boxes lined with a double thickness of waxed paper, or in paper or muslin bags which are tied and placed in a larger bag. Store in a dry, warm, airy place. RED CROSS MEETING Please take notice that the annual meeting of the American Red Cross will be held on October 23, 1918, at 8 o'clock of said day, at the Grand theater, for the election of a board of directors. Consideration of and action upon reports, and transaction of such other business as may properly come before the chapter. Each member of the chapter is earnestly urged to be present. EVA H. BOYD, Sec. Tuesday morning the board of supervisors passed an order subscribing for the county to $75,000 in Fourth Liberty Loan Bonds. At a metting two weeks ago the supervisors agreed to make a purchase of $50,000. Since then it has been found that there is $25,000 more that can be put into bonds, and the subscription was raised to $75,000. The subscription is to be distributed among the banks of the county according to their quotas. A. D. Palmer, who has been in a hospital at Montreal, Canada, suffering from influenza, has sent a message to his wife announcing that he is rapidly improving. He was at one time reported dead.
