R. Prince Succumbs to an Attack of Influenza Mrs. Ruby Prince, wife of Prof. C. R. Prince, principal of the Anaheim high school, died at her home on Palm street at noon Wednesday, after a three-weeks' illness. Mrs. Prince has been a resident of Anaheim for the past seven years, during which period she made numerous warm friends who mourn her untimely death. Mrs. Prince was born on September 25, 1890, being 28 years old at the time of her death. She was married to C. R. Prince on May 5, 1911, having become acquainted with him while they were both students at Southern California University. Shortly after their marriage they came to Anaheim, Prof. Prince having been a member of the high school faculty ever since, first as assistant principal, then as principal. Besides her husband she leaves two small children, her father and three sisters. Funeral services were held at Backs & Terry's, Friday morning, Dr. Tully C. Knowles, of U. S. C., assisted by Rev. J. F. Humphrey, of the Anaheim M. E. church, conducting the services.

The tents are pitched on the vacant block east of the Central school building. They are somewhat crowded for space, but the sixteen big concessions and the various small booths where you can gamble with chance and get something valuable for nothing, if you are lucky, have all found a foothold. Time was when some of the stunts connected with a carnival company were extremely naughty, but public opinion was ferninst such shows and they have been eliminated. At least there is nothing connected with the Wortham aggregation that is in the least objectionable, or could shock the sensibilities of the most fastidious. The shows are all clean as well as interesting. There are sixteen concessions in the combine, but some of them have several attractions. For instance the Gowdy side show presents the fattest girl in the world, "Jolly Josie Jolly," and "Bluey Bluey," a Lilliputian, whose ancestors came over with Gulliver. Pharoah's daughter, in a mummyfied state, plays the Galatea trick by coming to life occasionally. Prof. Roth's trained wild animal show is also an attractive place. Then, under other canvases, you can take a trip to Chinatown and see the Celestial in his native element, or you can go down on the Barbary coast of San Francisco. In one tent you can go through the trenches and over the top with the khaki boys, and in another you can see a German submarine in action—and out of action. These are also war heroes and liberty girls, and the Hawaiian young lady singers are very popular. Other attractions are the diving girls, Aamaza, the wild girl, the athletic star, the illusion show, the silodrome, the snake show and the bug house. We don't know what is in the bug house, but it is worth the money. The most attractive thing for the kidlets is the merry-go-round, but the older ones prefer going up in the big Ferris wheel, or sitting in an upholstered chair circling around on the whip. Music is furnished by a military band and a calliope. On the whole, the equipment of the company indicates prosperity and the shows are all clean and good. Visitors can take their choice of the various stunts, and nobody need fear seeing anything shocking. SCHOOL CHILDREN WILL GROW GARDENS All Orange County Schools Organized Into a Bureau School children all over Orange county will soon begin planting vegetables, in accordance with the plan of the federal authorities to encourage gardening. Saturday morning at the courthouse there was a meeting of the Orange County School Gardens Bureau with the principals of the schools of the county at which the plan to have every school in the county carry on home gardening this spring was explained. County School Superintendent Mitchell, who is chairman of the gardens committee, presided at the meeting. The purpose of encouraging home gardens is two-fold. First, foodstuffs will be produced; second, educationally, the children will learn something about agriculture. It is proposed wherever possible that the parents shall rent to their child or children a small piece of ground. Where a team is available, it is proposed to allow them to have half an acre or an acre, whatever it appears likely that they can take care of. On this ground under the joint supervision of parents and teachers something is to be raised. The children should be given the right to sell their products and keep the money. It is suggested that whatever is used on the home table be paid for, and that the boy or girl keep a careful record of receipts and expenditures. Principals are to take the plan up through the teachers, and children of all schools are to be asked to join in the work. There will be many limitations, of course, for some of the children will be able to get only a small bit of ground in a backyard, but altogether it is believed that a lot of prac- marriage they came to Anaheim.

BANK ELECTS OFFICERS The annual meeting of the stockholders of the First National Bank and the Fullerton Savings Bank were held recently in the directors' room of the handsome new bank building. All expressed themselves as delighted with the new structure and more than pleased with the expansion of the business. Directors of the First National were elected as follows: C. E. Holcomb, F. C. Krause, Wm. Besser, F. R. Holcomb, S. N. Fuller, E. J. Barrows, O. O. Allen. The following are new directors of the Fullerton Savings Bank: B. F. Porter, S. W. McColloch, S. N. Fuller, A. C. Bowers, F. R. Holcomb, F. C. Krause, H. C. Head. Directors of the First National met and elected officers as follows: President, F. C. Krause; vice-president, C. E. Holcomb; vice-president, Wm. Besser; cashier, H. A. Krause; assistant cashier, H. L. Ustick; assistant cashier, H. V. Williams. The officers of the Fullerton Savings Bank were chosen as follows: President, F. C. Krause; vice-president, B. F. Porter; secretary-treasurer, S. N. Fuller; assistant cashier, H. L. Ustick; assistant cashier, H. V. Williams. Mr. and Mrs. G. N. Rexroad, of Westminster, visited Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Duckworth Sunday. WANT CHANGE IN SCHOOL Adjustment of school boundaries in certain districts in the northern end of the county is asked in a number of petitions filed with County School Superintendent Mitchell, and which will be heard before the supervisors on the first Wednesday in February. La Habra is after a part of the districts of Lowell Joint and Fullerton, and Fullerton wants a part of Lowell Joint, Orangethorpe and Brea. In the case of Lowell Joint that district has an assessed valuation of $14,000,000 with only thirty scholars, while Fullerton and La Habra have a larger number of school children with lower assessed valuations. Eight petitions have been filed with Mr. Mitchell. La Habra is asking that portions of Fullerton, Orangethorpe and Lowell Joint be added to La Habra. Fullerton is asking for portions of Placentia, Orangethorpe, Brea and Lowell Joint. Those petitions affecting Lowell Joint may have to go to the supervisors of Los Angeles county also, as part of the district is in Los Angeles county. Superintendent Mitchell is investigating this angle to the situation. It is the opinion of the district attorney that the petitions will have to go before both boards of supervisors.

AHEIM GAZETT Anaheim, California, Thursday, January 23, 1919 SLICK SWINDLER IN TOILS OF THE LAW MAN WHO PASSED BOGUS CHECK AT PALACE MEAT MARKET ARRESTED IN ARIZONA THIRTY-SIX WARRANTS ISSUED FOR HIS APPREHENSION AT VARIOUS POINTS Check artists, both smooth and clumsy, have in years gone by found Anaheim a particularly green pasture for their pickings, and it is not surprising to learn that a bold and successful swindler who left a trail of bad checks from the Atlantic to the Pacific, making a national reputation for himself during his meteoric passage, included this city in his itinerary. The man traveled under various alliases but his real name is E. R. Jay. He was arrested recently at Douglass, Arizona, on his return trip to the East, having ANTICS OF BIRDMAN ATTRACT WIDE ATTENTION Clarence Chamberlain Cuts a Few Stunts in Air Over Anaheim Flying low in the heavens an airplane came out of the east Saturday morning nad passed over the western end of town. The familiar roar of the motor brought all Anaheim out of doors. Its nose was pointed toward the ground and it soon disappeared beneath the housetops and the trees. Everybody wondered why the birdman was alighting here, but it was soon apparent that he did not stop. In a moment he reappeared, climbing skyward. Then began a series of evolutions that made the timid spectators gasp. The machine looped the loop, turned somersaults, flew upside down, danced on its tail, stood on its head, and did other queer stunts. Who the daring pilot was nobody knew, but it was conjectured he was some daring trick aviator who had come here for the purpose of cutting a few dios in the air for the especial edification of the people of Anaheim. It soon developed, however, that the birdman was an Anaheim boy—Clarence Chamberlain of March field, Riverside, son of Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Chamberlain, of this city. While taking his daily exercise Saturday morn- MYSTERIOUS FLU STILL WORRIES DOCTORS EPIDEMIC CONTINUES TO BREAK OUT WITH NEW VIGOR IN CERTAIN LOCALITIES BRAVE BLUEJACKETS ENDANGERING THEIR LIVES BY SUBMITTING TO EXPERIMENTS The flu situation is improving in this particular region, although the disease has not been stamped out by any means, new cases being reported almost every day. While a large percentage of the people of this city and vicinity have suffered from the aliment fortunately there have been but few deaths among us. We have been particularly fortunate in comparison with other cities especially where precautionary measures were disregarded. In Pasadena it has broken out afresh since the Tournament of Roses fest- clumsy, have in years gone by found Anaheim a particularly green pasture for their pickings, and it is not surprising to learn that a bold and successful swindler who left a trail of bad checks from the Atlantic to the Pacific, making a national reputation for himself during his meteoric passage, included this city in his itinerary. The man traveled under various aliases but his real name is E. R. Jay. He was arrested recently at Douglass, Arizona, on his return trip to the East, having spent a couple of profitable weeks in California. Thirty-six warrants had been issued for his arrest, but he was finally run down by Burns detectives. He will be tried in a federal court because at one place he represented himself as a treasury official, even assuming the name of an officer well known in New Mexico and Colorado. In Arizona he was Capt. Archie Roosevelt, and succeeded in worming money out of a member of Col. Roosevelt's famous Rough Rider regiment. In San Francisco he passed as the son of ex-Mayor Gaynor of New York. Inspector Hall of the Burns detective agency, was in Santa Ana last week and stated that when arrested Jay had several thousand dollars in cash in his pockets, but he made it a rule to pay his expenses with small checks, having his eye out all the time for a big swing. From Southern California he went to San Francisco, where he got $2500. He was on his way East and was working through Arizona when he was caught. Jay contented himself with cashing a ten dollar check in Anaheim, but took a round-about course in order to get the cash. He told J. W. Bergman, of the Palace Meat Market, that his name was J. H. Walton. Having recently sold his meat market in a northern state he was desirous of going into business in Southern California, and preferred purchasing an establishment already established. He had visited Santa Ana and other towns, but Anaheim looked good to him and he would like to stay here. Mr. Bergman put a price on his shop and after making a thorough investigation Walton agreed to take it. He wrote a check on a Los Angeles bank for $4500 in payment for the shop, then suddenly remembered that he was due in Santa Ana and had spent all his small change. He asked Mr. Bergman to cash a $10 check for him which he did. The check was returned as worthless. That was the only check he attempted to float here, but he cashed a small one at Olive and two or three at Santa Ana. It soon developed, however, that the birdman was an Anaheim boy—Clarence Chamberlain of March field, Riverside, son of Mr. and Mrs. C. E. Chamberlain, of this city. While taking his daily exercise Saturday morning he conceived the idea of coming over to say "good morning" to his mother. Like all other Anaheimers Mrs. Chamberlain was attracted by the sound of the motor and rushed out doors. The big machine was coming toward her just above the housetops. She was considerably surprised when the aviator leaned over and waved his hand at her, and was more surprised when she recognized her own son. The subsequent antics of the machine were not very quieting to the mother's nerves, but it soon pointed its weak eastward and disappeared as rapidly as a huge bird. Clarence's two brothers, Ashley and Clark, are also wearing Uncle Sam's uniform. FIFI MEETS WITH STERN REBUKE AT PALM CAFE Fashionably Dressed Couple Fail to Get Service—Are Greatly Peeved A fashionably dressed man and woman entered the Palm Cafe at eventide the other day, and accompanying them was Fifi, the little dear which gives them that comforting solace. The couple took chairs at a table and also made a place for their idol, placing fuzzy-wuzzy upon the high chair and neatly tucked a napkin around his little neck. The obliging waitress came over to take their orders, believing all along that the third member of the group was a sure enough human, until she lamped the dearest at close range. "We will have a double order of ham—and—a pair of breaded lamb chops for Fifi," said the head of the family. The waitress, having the time of her life to keep from bursting out in loud laughter, made her way to the kitchen and placed the order with the chef, meanwhile informing him of the gender of the new arrivals. The chef (who is also the boss) double-o-ed the prospective diners, and, being quick witted, let the order ride. After quite a while, as Fifi became impatient, the man wanted to know this particular region, although the disease has not been stamped out by any means, new cases being reported almost every day. While a large percentage of the people of this city and vicinity have suffered from the aliment-fortunately there have been but few deaths among us. We have been particularly fortunate in comparison with other cities especially where precautionary measures were disregarded. In Pasadena it has broken out afresh since the Tournament of Roses festival, and all the inhabitants are compelled to wear masks. In Long Beach the holy city went wild over the ratification of the dry amendment, and the disease is more virulent than ever. There appears to be no diminution in the number of cases reported daily in Los Angeles, and from ten to forty leaths occur each day. Although several months have passed since the 'flu first made its appearance, doctors throughout the country are still at sea, and are unable to agree in a diagnosis of the plague. The government is making every effort possible to unravel its mysteries, but it appears the more the eminent physicians investigate the less they know about it. They are taking heroic measures and offering up sacrifices, but the 'flu germs marches on in their own way, ignoring the sacrifices and attacking where least expected. Distinguished service medals may never adorn their blouses, but 100 American bluejackets recently faced possible death as unflinchingly as any of the destroyer heroes who battled U-boats. These men comprise the "flu squad" of the navy. Under the supervision of naval surgeons they have time and again exposed themselves to the deadly germs. They have inhaled "flu" microbes. They had the little "flu" bugs injected into their veins. They have taken in the cause of the " flu" epidemic in every known form. Navy physicians wanted to establish the nature of the " flu" germ and something of the way in which the disease is spread. They called for volunteers who would expose themselves to it as the body of hero physicians in the famous " yellow fever squad" did in solving the mystery of yellow fever. Knowing that thousands of victims of the " flu" had died, these 100 sailors nevertheless volunteered for the duty. But to the astonishment of the physicians of the navy and of the public health service, not a man so exposed or innoculated developed any symptoms of the " flu." Medical science is baffled.

Fullerton scored the first touchdown and fought the southerns stubbornly until the end of the contest. Fullerton and San Diego are now tied for first place in the league. Fullerton will play Poma at Fullerton on Friday afternoon. Should Fullerton be victorious in this game, and should San Diego win from Orange, Fullerton and San Diego may play again for the championship of the league. Fullerton strove hard to maintain its lead over San Diego in Saturday's game, but a number of the eleven failed to show their usual pep. San Diego put up a strong game, and if the two eleven meet again this season followers of the game look for a battle royal. Anaheim people who attended the ball given by Co. 99, California Military Reserve, at Placentia Friday evening report it an extremely pleasant affair. A large crowd of young ladies and gentlemen were in attendance. Harry Felling's orchestra furnished the music which, of course, was first-class. Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Goodale entertained a number of former Dakotans at their home on Saturday evening, more than forty guests being present. The Dakotans are organizing a society and will adopt a name at the next meeting which will be held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. A. Griggs. The waitress, having the time of her life to keep from bursting out in loud laughter, made her way to the kitchen and placed the order with the chef, meanwhile informing him of the gender of the new arrivals. The chef (who is also the boss) double-o-ed the prospective diners, and, being quick witted, let the order ride. After quite a while, as Fifi became impatient, the man wanted to know how his allotment of chow was coming on and asked the clerk to send out a tracer. "You'll have to see the boss," replied the clerk, and being informed that he was in the kitchen, the man hustled over and inquired as to the tardiness in filling his order. "It takes just about an hour to prepare ham and eggs, and I guess it will be about another hour before they're ready," replied the chef. "And furthermore we don't serve poodles in this establishment," he replied forcefully. The lady overheard this conversation and, filled with wrath, hotly retorted: "Oh, you're rude; Oh, my dearest Fifi—my own—come let us get out of here. They won't serve you—this place is not good enough for us." And with a withering glance aimed at the chef, she picked up her skirts and Fifi and started for the door. "Oh you bru—"; but before she finished the sentence the chef told her to be on her way with the family and seek service elsewhere. Mr. and Mrs. J. H.

Pure cultures of the "influenza bacillus" as isolated and determined by medical science, were introduced into the nostrils of members of the squad; a filtered suspension of washings from the upper air passages of an acute case of "flu" was dropped in the eyes of two members; more was injected into another with a hypodermic needle, but unteers who would expose themselves to it as the body of hero physicians in the famous "yellow fever squad" did in solving the mystery of yellow fever.

"The flu mystery" is the title of the public health service's record of the experiments. They were carried on in Boston and San Francisco. Thirty men in Boston were innoculated with secretions filtered and unfiltered from the repository passages of a typical case of influenza in the active stage of the disease. The material was introduced into the nose and throats of members of the "flu squad" by sprays and swabs. Each of the 30 kept on showing the most amazing health. Ten volunteers visited the Chelsea naval hospital and allowed "flu" patients to cough and sneeze in their faces. Each was exposed to the "flu" for about three quarters of an hour. And all continued disguisingly healthy. Blood from five patients with typical cases of "flu" was injected in the veins of the men of the squad. None became ill.

Science is still baffled. "Sanitariums will do well," Surgeon General Blue comments, "to go on applying the federal principles of control that are based on the justifiable as-sumption that the disease is a droplet infection. I believe, however, that we have not given enough consideration to the hands and mouth as a part of infection, nor have we sufficiently emphasized the possible infectivity of the earliest stages of the disease. "The public health service expects to continue the experiments and the 100 heroes of the 'flu' squad will again and again expose themselves to the fatal epidemic, with the hope that the veil may be lifted and humanity made safe from it." AIRPLANE FACTORY FOR PACIFIC COAST Glenn Martin Says He May Build One in This Region Glenn L. Martin, of Santa Ana, airplane builder and designer of the 800-horsepower super bombing plane which bears his name, arrived in Santa Ana Sunday night from Cleveland, Ohio, with his mother, who has been with him for several months past. Martin expects to remain in Southern California for about thirty days for a HITCH IN PLANS FOR OUTFALL SEWER ALL CITIES NOT IN ACCORD RE-GARDING EMPLOYMENT OF A SPECIAL ATTORNEY BILL GRANTING PRIVILEGE INTRODUCED FRIDAY BY ASSEMBLY-MAN WALTER EDEN Friction, according to reports, has already developed in the plans of the cities of Anaheim, Santa Ana, Orange and Fullerton to jointly construct an outfall sewer to the ocean, but the disagreement is not at all serious as yet. The proposal to engage Clyde Bishop as legal adviser appears to have caused a temporary hitch, as Anaheim and Orange are of the opinion that the city attorneys of the four cities can furnish all the legal advice necessary. Santa Ana and Fullerton, on the other hand, have agreed to sign a contract with Mr. Bishop. Glenn Martin Says He May Build One in This Region Glenn L. Martin, of Santa Ana, airplane builder and designer of the 800-horsepower super bombing plane which bears his name, arrived in Santa Ana Sunday night from Cleveland, Ohio, with his mother, who has been with him for several months past. Martin expects to remain in Southern California for about thirty days for a rest and will make trips of investigation to the near-by flying fields at Riverside and San Diego. Also, Martin while here is laying out plans for a prospective airplane assembling plant in the south, which he may build to accommodate his west coast government business. Whether or not the western plant will be erected, Martin said, depends on the army program approved by the general staff at Washington. Should the general staff approve plans for a 500,000 army, as appears likely, this would mean 22,000 men in the air service, and during the coming year the government would require not less than 300 of the new Amtrak war planes, capable of carrying five machine guns and a cannon, and which have a speed of 120 miles an hour and can climb 10,000 feet in 21 minutes. Should this program be approved, about 75 of the machines would be ordered for the west coast fields, and it would be to prepare these for delivery that the Southern California factory would be erected. The metal parts would be sent from Martin's half-million dollar factory at Cleveland, and the wooden parts would be fabricated in the west, for this work can be done more cheaply here than in the east. As only twenty per cent of wood received at the plant actually goes into the plane the saving in freight bills by having a western factory would amount to quite a figure, Martin said. THE CITRUS MARKET The Fruit World says: The market on California navels shows a generally easier tone throughout the East, and is no doubt brought about by the frost damage reports in California which have caused buyers to hesitate in placing orders. It is thought that this condition is one ytemporary, however, and that the market will soon regain strength when the trade realizes that the ship-cities of Anaheim, Santa Ana, Orange and Fullerton to jointly construct an outfall sewer to the ocean, but the disagreement is not at all serious as yet. The proposal to engage Clyde Bishop as legal adviser appears to have caused a temporary hitch, as Anaheim and Orange are of the opinion that the city attorneys of the four cities can furnish all the legal advice necessary. Santa Ana and Fullerton, on the other hand, have agreed to sign a contract with Mr. Bishop. At a called meeting of the Inter-City Sewer Committee held at Fullerton city hall last night the situation was discussed at some length and resulted in Bishop making an offer, by request, to draft and carry through the legislation for the sum of $750, the contract to be cancelled if passage of the bill fails. If it carries the $750 will be applied on the contract fee. Quarterly payments on the $3000 fee, as provided under the contract, will continue up to the election and should one at more of the four cities fail to vote bonds for the project, the contract will be cancelled. If all cities vote bonds the contract continues for the period designated, which is two years. The trustees of both Anaheim and Orange endorsed the proposal to have Mr. Bishop draft the bill and carry it through the legislature, and agree to pay their proportion of the fee. Anaheim and Orange are not opposed to Mr. Bishop personally, but the trustees take the position that his employment would be premature as nothing yet has been presented to show that the plan is feasible from an engineering standpoint or that a special attorney is necessary. They hold that the four city attorneys can handle all the legal business with very little extra cost to the cities. The attitude of the Santa Ana city council, as represented by the majority of the members, is that the project is one that involves the expenditure of between $300,000 and $400,000 by the four cities and that there should be some one individual responsible for the legal steps. The Santa Ana council does not take the position that Bishop should be that man. Mr. Bishop has already drafted the bill, and it was introduced in the legislature by Assemblyman Eden, Friday. The matter will be considered by the Anaheim trustees at tonight's meeting. Tomorrow night the Inter-City sewer committee will again hold a session at Santa Ana. The Fruit World says: The market on California navels shows a generally easier tone throughout the East, and is no doubt brought about by the frost damage reports in California which have caused buyers to hesitate in placing orders. It is thought that this condition is only temporary, however, and that the market will soon regain strength when the trade realizes that the shipping of only such oranges as are fit for human consumption will be permitted. Delivered prices are on a basis of $5 to $5.25 for fancy fruit. F. o. b. quotations range from $4 to $4.50, according to district. At a meeting of citrus growers and shippers called by the field deputy of the State Commission of Horticulture on Thursday, it was clearly brought out that the law in regard to the shipping of frozen fruit would be strictly enforced. Mr. Hilts, of the federal bureau, explained the relation of the food and drugs act to the shiftment in interstate commerce and the sale of frozen citrus fruits, stating that Food Inspection Decision No. 150 would be enforced. This provides for the seizure of shipments where 15 per cent of the fruit on a transverse section through the center shows a marked drying in 20 per cent of the exposed pulp. Mr. Mackey stated that the interpretation of frozen fruit to be used by the state and county inspectors would be where 10 per cent of the fruit shows marked frost injury in two sections of the fruit. Two sections of the fruit would be about 20 per cent of the surface, so local and federal rules differ only in the percentage of fruits affected. Considering all the circumstances, it would seem that the only safe thing to do with orchards showing any considerable frost damage is not to pick the fruit until the drying is complete and the merchantable fruit can be segregated. F. o. b. quotations on Florida oranges, both Brights and Goldens, range from $3.75 to $4 from central districts and $3.50 to $3.75 from West Coast. In leading auction markets the prices range from $4.30 to $5.30 per box. The market on lemons is holding steady on stock in good condition. Delivered prices range mostly around $4. Considerable fruit has been frozen in transit that has been offered the past week and has sold at low prices accordingly. Any shortage in the California lemon crop because of cold damage will not be noticed until along in July. There are 3000 boxes Palermo lemons afloat for New York, also some Messinas, the quantity of which is unknown.
