Mr. and Mrs. Gus Theodore have reached home after six months tour of Europe, most of the time being spent visiting relatives and friends in Mr. Theodore's old home, Greece. They saw Paris and Rome and many other interesting cities of Europe, and visited the famous battlefields of France. A sister and nephew of Mr. Theodore accompanied them home from Greece, and will probably reside in America. Mr. and Mrs. Henry M. Adams and family have taken up their residence temporarily at Balboa, having sold their home property here to Perry Mathas. Mr. Adams was unable to secure a home in this city, and as a result moved his family to the coast. He will later on erect a commodious residence on his Garden Grove ranch. He will still remain as manager of the Griffith Lumber Co. Road hunters go down in the regions of the gun clubs looking for ducks that may fly over from one pond to another, but they are hard to get, usually flying high. But the hunters are persistent and are always willing to take a chance, especially when the club barons are on the job to help keep ducks on the wing. But the road hunter's lot is a sad one and quite often has to be content with a batch of mud hens. District Deputy Ida Mitchell of the Rebekahs made an official visit to the local lodge Friday evening. he was accompanied by a large delegation from Santa Ana lodge. An interesting program was rendered by the lodge after which the visitors were pleasantly entertained for an hour or more. Armistice Day, November 11, will this year be a legal holiday in California. Governor William D. Stephens today so proclaimed it and said he would ask the 1921 Legislature to add this date to the list of permanent legal holidays in California. This action was upon urgence of the American Legion in California. The new pipe organ presented to the Methodist White Temple by Mrs. Chrales Eygabroad and Mrs. William Wagner was dedicated Sunday evening, Rev. H. I. Rasmus of San Diego, district superintendent, having charge of the services. Leon Rice, the famous church tenor, sang several selections, and the choral society under direction of Mrs. C. A. McCullah, furnished the balance of the music. The big church was packed to overflowing. The registration in this city for the November election is 2018. This is an average of 200 for the ten precincts of the city. The largest precinct in the county is Fullerton No. 2, where the registration is 554. Considering the time required by each voter to consider the big ballot with its twenty amendments, if all those people vote between sunrise and 7 o'clock p.m., they will have to get a hustle on themselves. The election board in that precinct will have a strenuous time. LOCAL NOTES John Peffley died at the Sanitarium Wednesday, funeral services being held at Inglewood Saturday. The Olive Petroleum company is now making some progress drilling new hole, it is said, at 3060, with 145 feet of new hole made. The formation is a sandy shale and carries a quantity of oil and gas. Drs. Johnston & Wickett have purchased the Iowa House property and will remodel and enlarge their quarters. This was necessary owing to increasing business of the clinic. These gentlemen recently purchased the Fullerton hospital, and state that it will probably be necessary to enlarge it shortly. The new well located near Orange County park for the National Security company was staked by Dr. Clark, a man who has made quite a reputation for himself locating wells. Drilling started last week, the hole now shows about 100 feet of hole. This attempt is in unproven territory. The Orange County Petroleum company's crew started drilling at the edge of Santiago canyon two weeks ago and now shows almost 500 feet of hole. "The White Dove" will be the principal attraction at the Fairland tonight. The picture is founded on the novel of the same name by William J. Locke, the famous English novelist, who never penned a more powerful story. As the absorbing story of "The White Dove" unfolds itself in all its beauty and magnificent splendour it Leo Sheridan and Joe Wagner left on Tuesday afternoon for Imperial Valley where they will spend several days hunting ducks. They made San Diego on Tuesday evening, and reached the duck hunting grounds yesterday. Today they are probably slaughtering the birds to beat the band. A warrant has been sworn out for the arrest of Henry Bolton on a charge of passing a fictitious check with intent to defraud. The check is alleged to have been passed to B. J. Dresser, of Anaheim, and was for $15. In the complaint it is stated that the check was purported to be signed by "Charles V. Murray," which is a fictitious name, and that no such person exists. The police are searching for Bolton. Articles of incorporation have been filed with the county clerk by the Valencia Irrigation company, which proposes to supply irrigation water by pumping plant to its stockholders. The orchardists who are interested in the company have land southwest of Anaheim. The directors named in the articles are P. H. Krick, Hugh Bell, Clarence Vanderburg, J E. Talcott, and Samuel L. Welsh. Of the $12,500 capital stock, there is $8500 subscribed. Fullerton High continued its mad career through the prep teams in its league Saturday, trampling all over Riverside High, 48 to 0. Shorty Smith's demon athletes evidently took things easy during the first half and didn't try any too seriously. In the last quarter the gang got together and crushed through Riverside for four touchdowns. McDermott and Shipkey were the shining lights for the winners. Billy Wallop drove to the county park on Sunday and was greatly interested in the many beautiful sights he witnessed there. Billy's eye is always ready to look at the beautiful. J. B. Neff returned from Ohio last week, but left again for Oakland where Mrs. Neff is visiting relatives. Mr. and Mrs. Neff expect to move to Los Angeles. George L.

George Hatfield, who recently seriously injured a foot while getting off a street car, had another mishap Thursday night when his vegetable wagon and Barney Hartfield's auto collided at the corner of Center and Los Angeles streets.

It is estimated that there were between 2500 and 3000 Shriners in attendance at the ceremonial. Early morning saw Shriners in distant parts of the Southland heading for the county park. By 10 o'clock there was a large number of men on the ground, some anticipating the day's joys and others there for the purpose of preparing for the program. Mrs. George Hansen, who was badly burned Wednesday when her dress caught fire from an open gas heater, is doing as well as could be expected. "The White Dove" will be the principal attraction at the Fairyland tonight. The picture is founded on the novel of the same name by William J. Locke, the famous English novelist, who never penned a more powerful story. As the absorbing story of "The White Dove" unfolds itself in all its beauty and magnificent splendour it is apparent that William Locke, the author, has chosen as his theme a most unusual angle of human relations. It is more than spectacular in its vivid quiet intensity. A problem of the ages brought down to modern life. Friday night will be yaudeville, and Saturday night Louise Glaum, one of the screen's most popular stars, will appear in "The Lone Wolf's Daughter." A cowboy story will be shown at the New Grand tonight. "Cupid—the Cowpuncher," is the name of it, with Will Rogers as the hero. Will Rodgers in "Cupid, the Cowpuncher," is a gale of merriment blown in on a western whirlwind of laughter. Here you have a star whose face is a laugh, an author whose first, last and middle name is beguiling humor, and a comedy that is clean, diverting and satisfying. Not to speak of two or three dozen assorted riders of the range, just off the round-up and spoiling for anything that promises a fight or frolic. It's Will Rogers on his own home lot, with a pepery pony between his knees and the magic rope that made him famous looped from his saddle. Friday and Saturday nights the comedy, "Parlor, Bedroom and Bath" will be shown. Fullerton High continued its mad career through the prep teams in its league Saturday, trampling all over Riverside High, 48 to 0. Shorty Smith's demon athletes evidently took things easy during the first half and didn't try any too seriously. In the last quarter the gang got together and crushed through Riverside for four touchdowns. McDermott and Shipkey were the shining lights for the winners. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Rothschild of Portland, Or., were guests of Mr. and Mrs. John Harting one day last week. This was Mr. Rothschild's third visit to Anaheim in fifty years, and he expressed great astonishment at the wonderful improvements made in the city and vicinity since his last visit. He and his wife were driven by Mr. and Mrs. Hartung on a tour of observation of the orange plantations and oil fields in the northern portion of the county. They expressed amazement at the extent and the importance of these two leading industries. A suit asking for divorce from William James Postlewait has been filed by Mary E. Postlewait, of Anaheim, who alleged that she and her husband have been separated for three years, and that he deserted her. They were married in 1906, and have no children. She also stated that Postlewait ceased to love her and would mysteriously disappear for long periods of time without informing her of his whereabouts. She asks a divorce, her attorney's costs, court costs, and a stipulated sum per month for support while the suit is pending. She alleges that Postlewait earns $210 per month. The belief of many that a registered voter who has moved from one precinct in the same county within thirty days of election time, can vote in the precinct in which he is registered is based on a misunderstanding of the code, District Attorney L. A. West said Section 1239, paragraph 239 of the Political code, enacted in 1915, did contain a clause permitting such change. This section, however, when enacted in 1917, had stricken from it the clause permitting change of precincts within thirty days, nor was this clause reinstated in 1919. Therefore, citizens known to have changed their precincts between now and November 2 will lose their vote. The Fullerton Junior college has reached its largest enrollment. There are now some 80 students enrolled. With almost 700 in the high school, Fullerton is taking on the appearance of a city school, and is rapidly approaching the time when she hopes to surpass all other schools of the county in attendance. The New Domestic Science Art and Cafetria building is progressing rapidly. It will be the best of the group of twelve buildings on the campuses. It will be absolutely fireproof and modern in every appointment, and, and will be the last word in school architectural efficiency. Its completion will mean the first step in the building program for the greater Fullerton Union High School.

Fritz Kluewer has overhauled the Dew Drop Inn and greatly enlarged the seating capacity at his tables. The office which occupied one corner has been taken out which adds considerably to the size of the room. This was made necessary on account of the increasing demands of his guests. Retail dry goods men of the smaller Southern California cities will meet in Riverside today.

Danforth was in town from Los Angeles on Tuesday afternoon. He recently returned from an extended trip through the western states, where he found the corn crop the largest in the history of the country. He also visited Boston, his home town, which he had not seen in 33 years. He states the farther east he went the higher prices grew. Roast beef which cost 30 cents in Los Angeles restaurants comes to 90 cents in Boston, and other catables are correspondingly high. He finds Los Angeles already filling up with winter visitors, there being more easterners arriving in that city daily at present than ever before. He had very prosperous business trip through the middle west, and found sentiment for Harding and Coolidge rampant throughout that section. Gene Watson of Vernon at Brea Thursday night won a technical knockout over Red Mathews, of Anaheim in the third round of their bout. Mathews went through the ropes with a cut over his eye, and though he made a recovery well inside the allotted ten seconds, Watson was declared the winner, and the bout stopped. While the decision was not popular with many of the fans, it appeared to be the only one possible, as Mathews would undoubtedly have been knocked cold by Watson with the next blow, as he was groggy, and could not have put up adequate defense. While Mathews never worried Watson seriously he nevertheless kept after him continually, and could not be accused of not wanting to tear into his opponent every second of the time. If you catch a fleeting gimpse of a worrited, haggard-looking man ambling home in the wee small hours of the morning, or going to the courthouse about dawn, you will probably be right if you guess that it is County Clerk, J. M. Backs. The reason for these strange actions is that Backs and his force are busy on day and night shifting out to the regis- It will be absomodern in every and will be the last structural efficiency. can the first step am for the greater School. A. E. Yorba, well known rancher who lives a mile and a half northwest of Placentia, was driving along peacefully, bringing a load of walnut pickers to his ranch. He was driving a Hudson and everything seemed serene and calm. Then along came one of those cars you always laugh at. The filver was driven by an old man, who was in a hurry to get to work. The Ford side-swiped the big car and the big car went down for the count. Mr. Yorba had one arm badly bruised and two Mexicans had ribs broken. Dr. Cowles supplied first-aid to the men but the automobiles will need further attention. Sheriff C. E. Jackson Tuesday appeared before the board of supervisors and requested that some action be taken to provide a special psychiatric ward at the county hospital where insane patients may be safely held, and where sick prisoners from the county jail can be placed without danger of their escaping. Supervisor Schumacher, head of a committee to look into the matter, said he would bring before the board the plans which for some time had been under the committee's consideration. All the supervisors expressed themselves as favoring immediate action in regard to the construction of a building such as the one now proposed. If you catch a fleeting glimpse of a worritd, haggard-looking man ambling home in the wee small hours of the morning, or going to the courthouse about dawn, you will probably be right if you guess that it is County Clerk, J. M. Backs. The reason for these strange actions is that Backs and his force are busy on day and night shifts sending out to the registered voters of the county the pamphlets which tell them what is contained in each of the amendments which will appear on the ballots, after all the legal flub-dub and un-common law language has been scrapped away. With these are also being mailed sample ballots of the November election. Backs and his force have been busy all week addressing and mailing 25,130 of these pamphlets and ballots. They hope to have the last one of them, including that of Mr. Zebra from Zululand, if his name is on the list, placed in the mail by this evening.
