GOLDEN SCROLL READY FOR DISTRIBUTION Each Family Losing Son in War to Have One. Lieutenant Charles D. Swanner, to whom Judge Z. B. West, chairman of the County Council of Defense, tendered the golden scrolls that are to go to each family in the county that lost a son in the world war, announced that he had completed the blank receipts which families receiving a scroll must fill out. Swanner stated that he had decided to deliver a portion of the scrolls to Major E. J. Marks of Fullerton for distribution in the northern end of the county. Fifty-three golden scrolls are ready for distribution in the county. This number, however, will not be sufficient, according to Judge West, who has notified Swanner that he has learned of additional families who are entitled to them. Each scroll has a large golden star and is engraved in the following words: "In profound appreciation of the devotion to his country and to its ideals of liberty and independence which caused (name is here) to give his life for their preservation in the great war just victoriously concluded, the State of California offers to his family and friends this token of its sympathy and enduring gratitude. Done in the City of Sacramento, this eleventh day of November. (Signed) Charles C." SECOND WATER FEEDER BEING INSTALLED Pipe Laying Progressing Nicely, and a New Well Seems to be Taking Shape for Near Future. Work is progressing rapidly upon laying the new outgo water pipe from the power house, which when finished will give the city two main feeders instead of one. The new 10-inch pipe extends east on the city property to South Claudina and from there will be laid on Santa Ana to Olive street. The purpose of the new pipe is to afford the city protection from a possible stoppage of service from the main pipe now used leading out onto Los Angeles street and connecting with laterals at the junction of that thoroughfare and Santa Ana street. The necessity of the second main feeder was demonstrated the other day when an autoist collided with a fire hydrant in the west end, breaking it off. The water supply of the entire city had to be shut off for a couple of hours while repairs were being made. By installing the new feeder, covering the eastern half of the city, inconvenience from such accidents will be lessened. Supt. Hannum is going in for more water and that new third well begins to look like a reality, as some of the trustees are looking at the venture through optimistic glasses. the devotion to his country and to its ideals of liberty and independence which caused (name is here) to give his life for their preservation in the great war just victoriously concluded, the State of California offers to his family and friends this token of its sympathy and enduring gratitude. Done in the City of Sacramento, this eleventh day of November. (Signed) Charles C. Moore, director, State Council of Defense; W. D. Stephens, Governor." And at the bottom of the scroll is engraved this passage from Abraham Lincoln's address on the occasion of the dedication of the National Cemetery at Getsburg, November 19, 1863: "It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain, that this nation under God shall have a new birth of freedom and that government of the people, for the people and by the people shall not perish from the earth." Certificates of service, signed by Governor Stephens, and bearing the great seal of California, will be turned over by S. H. Finley, who received them, to the various chapters of the American Legion in Orange County, for distribution to discharged service men, according to recent announcement. Each service man applying for a certificate should present his discharge or release papers. HIGH SCHOOL NOTES The senior class held its first function of the year Saturday, when a majority of the members spent the day at Roberts Camp, Sierra Madre. The day was pleasantly spent in hiking. The chaperones were: Miss Jones, Miss Lopez, and Mr. Askin of the faculty; Mrs. Trecker, Mr. CASE POSTPONED TO NOVEMBER 21 Mrs. Claudia Alling Asking $200 a Month Separate Maintenance. Opposing attorneys in the separate maintenance action instituted by Mrs. Claudia Alling against her husband, W.' T. Alling, in which she alleged she was the victim of a conspiracy launched against her by him and Grover Deakins, alleged owner of the Cherry Blossom confectionery, were laying plans for a renewed battle in court, Superior Judge West having continued the case until November 21, following almost an entire afternoon taken up by the putting on of evidence. Mrs. Alling, who in her complaint had alleged that her husband, without any consideration, gave Deakins a purported bill of sale to the confectionery, took the stand and in response to questions put by her attorney, Leonard Evans, testified that $200 per month would be necessary for her maintenance. She said that at the present time she was destitute. It was brought out that following the institution of the suit against Mrs. Alling by Grover Deakins for $200 damages, claimed to have been sustained because of her alleged interference with the business of the Cherry Blossom, and for an injunction which would restrain her from being about the premises, Mrs. Alling moved from her home in the rear of the establishment to a hotel, where she said, she is staying at the present time. The injunction asked by Deakins had been denied by Superior Judge Williams. Mrs. Allings's husband testified, on HIGH SCHOOL NOTES The senior class held its first function of the year Saturday, when a majority of the members spent the day at Roberts Camp, Sierra Madre. The day was pleasantly spent in hiking. The chaperones were: Miss Jones, Miss Lopez, and Mr. Askin of the faculty; Mrs. Trecker, Mr. and Mrs. A. Henry of the parents. Mr. E. M. Furuset, of the commercial department, attended the meeting of the Southern California Commercial Teachers held at the Chaffey Union High School in Ontario, last Saturday. A trip through the Hotpoint factory was the feature of the morning, and addresses of interest in the afternoon. The dramatic classes of the A. U. H. S. recently attended the performance of "The Merchant of Venice," given in Los Angeles. The class will put on this play later in the year under the direction of Mr. Askin, the coach. Misses Lillis Johnston, Lillian Hartfield, Lydia Davis, Lora McClellan, Emma Owens, Etta Dunham, Marjorie Utter, Marcia Carmichael, music students under Mr. Askin, attended the second Philharmonic Concert at Trinity Auditorium in Los Angeles last Friday. They were accompanied by Mrs. J. A. Clayes. Anaheim Gazette per year; $150 payable in advance. Mrs. Allings's husband testified, on direct examination by Attorney Evans, that he had sold the confectionery, held by him on a lease contract from his son, to Deakins for an initial payment of $10 down and $50 per month. Alling said that during the past four years he had not made a cent of money out of the business, and had been barely able to realize the $50 per month needed to pay on the lease contract. Responding to a question as to how much money Alling had at the present time, he put his hand in his pocket and produced $2.65, saying this was all the money he had. Alling testified that a week ago he sold a number of Liberty Bonds in order to meet demands of creditors on the Cherry Blossom. Alling's attorney is A. E. Koepsel of Santa Ana. With R. C. Mize as her attorney, Ruth A. Johnston, a widow, Monday filed a complaint through which she will seek to quiet title to a lot at Anaheim. The complaint is directed against Lucy Laubersheimer, administrator of the estate of Anton Lauber, who died in 1897 at Wilmington, Los Angeles county. A copy of a resolution Orange County February 12 and reed of supervisors to the connection with re-form conservation, was placed on file by The copy of the reed by Harold E. Wahler of Orange county drafted by D. Eyrick Modena, W. L. Yonk W. Dean Johnston reads as follows: rectors of the Orang Dureau requests that action in regard to water conservation, of necessary fire trenching water sheds be approved of any may see fit to expose." And They Say The police have their eagle eye focused on boot-leggers, but the latter are sly and keen and hard to trap. They have a way of making a witness forget. Just when the sob heroine in the movies starts the tears trickling down her cheeks some bone head in the audience has to laugh. No brains. Carnival shows are taboo in this religious bailiwick. And eggs are high. Some hose salesmen (that is, the rubber variety) are so affable and quacious as to be able to talk a bird off a bush. They're great on rolling their own. A publisher up Placentia way heaves a brick-bat occasionally at the grape-vine correspondent in his midst, who uses his paper as the source of the news supply going out from that famed section. A good pair of scissors has a wide range of usefulness. There is weeping and wailing among a certain class of citizens who have been making their own home brews. Many cases of stomach troubles have cropped out by a too early dip into the suds, before it's ripe. Hold your horses, boys. Wait for the kick. Among the grist turned out in the recorder's court last month were six honest-to-goodness drunks. Feet are still a-slipping. IN THE OIL FIELD (From Brea Progress) The Petroleum Development Company (Santa Fe) is rigging up 1-B-2 on Bradford to complete with cable tools after going to 3200 feet with the rotary. 1-B-3 is also rigging up for the rotary and will start drilling in a few days. 2-B-1, a new well, is rigging up for drilling. The Santa Ana Canyon Oil Company has set a water string at Crowther No. 1 in the shale at 2253 feet. Drilling will be resumed in a couple of weeks. Shut down for a couple of weeks on account of not being able to get pipe. The Standard Oil Company was able to resume drilling on Lock No. 2 early in the week. The depth of the well is now 4006 feet, and is the deepest well now drilling in the district. Kraemer No. 1-4 is sidetracking some pipe at 2015, 1-5 is drilling at 3135, and 1-6 is making hole at 760 feet. The formation here is a very hard conglomerate and is going a little slow. Just across the line from the Union's Chapman property the Standard has three wells drilling on Kraemer No. 2. Well No. 4 is making hole at 1500 feet. No. 5 at 1550, and No. 6 aa 820 feet. Nos. 3 and 7 are rigging up and setting boilers and will be ready to start drilling in a few days. On the Chapman lease the Union Oil Company has staked well No. 8 son No. 2 is rigging up with a shaft drive rotary and will be ready to start in a few days. The General Petroleum's Stern No. 1 is going slow, drilling in the conglomerate at 655 feet. It took four cement jobs to shut off all the water in the General Petroleum's Yorba Linda 3-1 well. Just after the fourth attempt was given the state's O.K., the drill opened up another water sand at 3138 feet. PRACTICAL COLLEGE MAN TALKS EGG PRODUCTION Demonstrations to be Conducted in This County. Poultry lectures and demonstration are to be conducted in this county during the last week of the month by the Orange County Farm Bureau. During the week Prof. R. B. Easson, an expert of the College of Agriculture of the University of California, is to be in this county for three days Nov. 24, 25 and 26. Attention to the poultry growing interests of Orange county is to be given by the Farm Bureau, which realizes its importance to a large share of the poeople of the county. Many people grow some poultry as a side-line. A little closer attention to the flocks will make the poultry more worth while. The new emphasis that citrus experts are giving to the value of poultry manure is a phase of the future of poultry production in this county worth considering. The man who is growing poultry might as well do it right, and make it pay. There will be other lectures and demonstrations during the winter. been making their own home brews. Many cases of stomach troubles have cropped out by a too early dip into the suds, before it's ripe. Hold your horses, boys. Wait for the kick. Among the grist turned out in the recorder's court last month were six honest-to-goodness drunks. Feet are still a slipping. With the real stuff selling for 70 berries a case in Louisville a number of people here were hunting up addresses of former friends down South with a view of wiring the S. O. S. Mountain dew from Kentucky has great pulling powers. A paper prints a court headline, "Free From Martial Bonds." Meaning no doubt the war's over. The boys in the city engineer's office have just about finished placing the new house numbers and have had many and varied questions asked concerning them. One lady of the house wanted to know if the numbers were to be changed every year, while another asked if she should take her number with her when she moved. Investigations continue to reveal large quantities of foodstuffs hoarded away in warehouses in the larger cities, including eggs, cheese, butter, fruit and vegetables. It's just about time to take these profiteers out at sunrise. When a contract was presented to the city dads for acceptance a night or two ago, it was handed to the attorney for perusal. At once the eye of the legal luminary detected a clause that appeared insufficient as to a time limit and insisted on amending. "First time this ever has been questioned," came from the party of the first part, "but you may change the verbiage. Mr. Mayor, you have a wide-awake adviser." Have a cigar, yes—thanks! Evidence of the dastardly work of the reprehensible Reds is seen nearby. Hang 'em and tell 'em about it afterwards. Just across the line from the Union's Chapman property the Standard has three wells drilling on Kraemer No. 2. Well No. 4 is making hole at 1500 feet, No. 5 at 1550, and No. 6 a4 820 feet. Nos. 3 and 7 are rigging up and setting boilers and will be ready to start drilling in a few days. On the Chapman lease the Union Oil Company has staked well No. 8 and the lumber is being put on the ground for the rig. Chapman No. 2 is held with a fishing job for pipe at 1200 feet. No. 4 spudded in a few days ago and shows 500 feet of hole. No. 5 is drilling at 2100. No. 6 is building rig, lumber is on the ground for No. 7 and the rig is well under way. Union Oil officials are looking for Chapman No. 3 to be the biggest well in the field. The well is now drilling at 2925 and will be cemented in a few days with a string of 8¼ pipe. The showings have been extremely good and every indication for a 5000 barrel well has been present. No. 3 is a short distance east from No. 1 and just a little north on the line from the Standard Oil Company's two Kraemer producers. Hoping to be benefitted by the experience of neighboring operators with water, the Amalgamated Oil Company quit drilling on its Yorba No. 1 at 2910 feet and is getting ready to put the well on the beam. A great deal of nice looking shale has been drilled through and a number of rather good showings of oil were reported, so that the well should not fail to make some kind of a showing on the beam. After battling with the heaving sand, caving in and other formation troubles, the Amalgamated Oil Company has succeeded in getting its Ibitson No. 1 into drilling condition again and new hole is now being made at 3270. The formation is a brown sandy shale. Ninety feet in the hard conglomerate was the hole made by the Amalgamated drilling at Breene No. 1. This grow some poultry as a side-line. A little closer attention to the flocks will make the poultry more worth while. The new emphasis that citrus experts are giving to the value of poultry manure is a phase of the future of poultry production in this county worth considering. The man who is growing poultry might as well do it right, and make it pay. There will be other lectures and demonstrations during the winter. The first series will begin with the visit of Prof. Easson Nov. 24-26. Easson will discuss with the poultrymen any problem which confronts them at the present time—diseases, housing, feeding, etc. Four commercial poultry plants of Orange county have been keeping records, co-operating with the poultry department of the university. Their flocks have been culled by a poultry expert of the university. A preliminary report will be obtained this month by Prof. Easson as to the results and benefits of culling. One demonstration will be held at Chas. Prinslow's place, Harper, Monday, Nov. 24, at 2 p.m. Prof. Easson will address the Garden Grove Farm Center on the evening of Nov. 24, at the schoolhouse. CAUGHT IN THE NET The new motor vehicle law must have a few jokers in it. At any rate it appears to be a hard one to obey, judging by the number of autoists who are arrested for violating it. Motor officers Ballard and Carr turned in 38 complaints Monday against drivers charged with fracturing some section of the lew, and among them are a number of very respectable, prominent and hitherto law abiding citizens of this city. Here is Monday's list: Officer Carr brought charges against M. H. Kurtz, Orange; A. C. Helps, Los Angeles; R. S. Thompson, Artesia; L. R. Moore, Los Angeles; L. Mr. A.

It's a good thing we've got the American Legion. There were several informal bottle parties Saturday night, under cover. One of the restrictions was not to hog it all. A copy of a resolution passed by the Orange County Farm Bureau on November 12 and requesting the board of supervisors to take action in connection with reforestation and water conservation, was received today and placed on file by the county clerk. The copy of the resolution was sent by Harold E. Wahlberg, farm advisor of Orange county. The resolution was drafted by D. Eyman Huff of Modena, W. L. York of LaHabra and W. Dean Johnston of Santa Ana, and reads as follows: "The board of directors of the Orange County Farm Bureau requests that you take some action in regard to the reforestry and water conservation, and the building of necessary fire trails and brakes in the water sheds of Orange county and do approve of any monies that you may see fit to expend for this purpose." After battling with the heaving sand, caving in and other formation troubles, the Amalgamated Oil Company has succeeded in getting its Ibitson No. 1 into drilling condition again and new hole is now being made at 3270. The formation is a brown sandy shale. Ninety feet in the hard conglomerate was the hole made by the Amalgamated drilling at Breene No. 1. This well from the start has been one of the toughest propositions in the Richfield district. Being unable to get the last joint of drill pipe out of the well, the Clark Oil Company started in drilling up the lost joint a few days ago. The Sharp and Hughes bit is being used and it is said the iron is disappearing rapidly. The redrilling is now at 3174. After being on a very exhaustive pumping test for two weeks, and failing to show any increase in the output, the Fullerton Oil Company's Travis No. 1 is a water well. The pumping test will be continued for a while longer and if the water is not exhausted, its source will be traced and further attempts made to shut it off. The General Petroleum's Thompson No. 1, the well that made the big showing and looked like a 3000 barrel gusher three weeks ago, has been deepened to 3100 feet, the casing perforated, a packer is being put in, and as soon as the tubing can be put in the big well will be ready to go. With the casing perforated and allowed to flow through the tubing the well should make a big production. Thomp- 5 acres, incopFine crop set $14,500. 10 acres, 5 y of soil.

Mr. and Mrs. Clem Amberg of Los Angeles were visiting friends in Anaheim Sunday. The Anaheim Orange and Lemon Association shipped over 700 cars of oranges and lemons this year, about half of the crop shipped from this city. When Mr. Sandiflands made the prediction early in the season that the five Anaheim packing houses would handle two million dollars worth of fruit it was thought by some that his figures were too high. Now that the season is ended it is found that the total number of cars shipped from here was 1450, and the total receipts $2,300,000. The annual meeting of stockholders of the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Association was held at the packing house Thursday. The annual report of Manager Schureman shows the past year has been a prosperous one for the members. The association shipped during the fiscal year 310 cars of oranges 218 cars being Valencias. The shipments netted the growers $446,126. The association controls 2050 acres of oranges, 1464 acres being five years old and over. Directors elected at Thursday's meeting were J. J. Dwyer, C. E. Jones, J. B. Neff, G. L. Tolson, W. H. Rockwell, G. H. Goodale, Chas Eygabroad, George A. Mills and S.C.Hartranft. FOR SALE acres, income $2850 this year. crop set for next year.
