Schulte already owned two or three cars, but he values his new one above all the balance. Work on the new tenements being constructed by the Chamber of Commerce on South Claudina street began Monday and is being pushed as rapidly as possible. It is expected some of them will be ready for occupancy the first of the week. A letter to the editor of this paper from Judge Phil D. Swing, congressman-elect from this district, says: "I want to express my appreciation of the splendid support given to me by your paper and by the citizens of your community. It was indeed a wonderful vote of confidence, and I am just human enough to be very proud of it. My main concern now is to make good in the performance of my new duties." A small house at the city's dumping ground on Placentia Avenue, occupied by Peter Letien and family was destroyed by fire Saturday night.

According to judges who handed down decisions in the contests of the Southern California High School Debating League, Friday night, all the oil wells in the country should belong to Uncle Sam. The question was "Resolved, that the United States should own and operate all oil wells found within its boundaries." Two teams from Alhambra and Anaheim debated the question. In the Anaheim auditorium, Martin Leuschner and Miss Ruth Reed of the local school upheld the affirmative and won the decision while at Alhambra the Anaheim debaters, who took the negative side, lost. The preliminary examination of Angel Duarte, held on a felony complaint charging him with criminally attacking Miss Florence Hammel, of Anaheim, about a month ago, was postponed until December 22, at 2 p.m., following an agreement between Duarte's attorney, Antonio Orfila, and Deputy District Attorney A. P. Nelson. Justice John B. Cox agreed to the postponement, which was a last minute affair, all of the witnesses subpoenaed on the case being in the courtroom ready to testify when the postponement was decided upon. It is understood that the hearing was deferred in order to allow further investigation of evidence in the case. Fullerton will soon have a 60-acre which is one of the most beautiful spots in this section of the state in which to build homes, if the plans of Robert Corcoran materialize, and there is every indication that they will. The property in question lies in the north-west part of the city and joins the Gants property on the west. The 60-acre tract is rolling ground and is an ideal place for beautiful homes. That Mr. Corcoran contemplates cutting the 60 acres up into small home sites of from one to five acre tracts became known at the meeting of the city trustees when City Engineer B. F. Dupuy stated that Mr. Corcoran requested of him to ascertain what were the requirements of the trustees should be plat the tract for home sites. Anaheim Gazette, fifty-two weeks for $1.50.

The Brea Townsite company was authorized by the Railroad Commission to sell to the city of Brea the water system maintained by the company in Brea.

The play which they are developing is called "The Mistress of Shenstone." It is an English play, and why they want orange groves in it is more than we can understand, unless the leading lady followed the crowd to Southern California, during the winter season. Mrs. E. J. Castillo of Independence, Kansas, came in Monday on a visit to her mother, Mrs. H. L. Wortman. She was over a week on the road and states that traveling is uncertain and disagreeable now.

While the fight fans in Sewall Hall at Brea Friday night conceded that the return match between Red Matthws and Gene Watson was one of the best scraps seen in the Brea ring for a long time, many of them believed the referee's decision of a draw was stretching a point in favor of Matthws. Red has been seeking a return bout with Watson since the latter gained a decision over him several weeks ago. He was given the chance and made a desperate attempt to down his man. He had all the best of the fourth round but the other three rounds were clearly Watson's. The four round go was full of thrills, each man mixing it up freely in an attempt to land a winning blow. The fair sized crowd present at the hall was kept on edge during the whole of the fight. Mrs. E. J. Castillo of Independence, Kansas, came in Monday on a visit to her mother, Mrs. H. L. Wortman. She was over a week on the road and states that traveling is uncertain and disagreeable now. At Salt Lake she was compelled to spend a night in the waiting room of the station owing to an overcrowded train and the scarcity of beds in the hotels. Mrs. Castillo was here five years ago, and was surprised to note the growth and improvement of Anaheim since her former visit. Everybody knows that the soil of Anaheim has no equal on this earth in the variety and quantity of its productions, but it has finally exceeded even our fondest expectations. While digging around a tree in his yard on Palm street some time ago, Mr. Knip, the grocereria man, unearthed a quart bottle of whiskey. Since Mr. Knip made his wonderful find gardening, it is reported has become a fad on Palm street, and real estate values are soaring in that neighborhood.

The gas situation of Fullerton is acute, it was stated at the meeting of the city trustees by Rollin A. Marsden, trustee. There is scarcely enough gas in the mornings to cook breakfast. The Southern Counties Gas company has a large territory to supply, it was added, but, nevertheless, they have ousted competition and must take care of the demand. The city attorney was instructed to write this company relative to the matter. Enid Bennett in "Her Husband's Friend," will be seen at the Grand tonight. It is the love story of a "Good Fellow's" wife. A Paramount picture "The Incubus," on which "Her Husband's Friend" is based, was one of the most popular books and it proved an admirable theme for Miss Bennett's latest starring vehicle. "Her Husband's Friend" is carried along with snappy action, clever touches of humor and a delightful love interest that runs throughout. Just played at Grauman's Million Dollar Theatre. Stetson Hats!

A warrant for the arrest of John and Jane Doe Bartlett for the alleged theft of clothing and household articles to the value of $56.00 from the house of Miss Barbara McMahon of Anaheim is the aftermath of an act of kindness. The Bartletts were a part of the carnival troupe which held forth at the American Legion celebration in Anaheim recently. When the couple arrived in Anaheim they found the city crowded and were unable to get a room. They applied to Miss McMahon and asked if she would let them have a spare room. She objected at first to renting a room but merely as a favor finally consented to the couple, in order that they might not be left without accommodations. When the carnival was over the Bartletts left, and at the same time there disappeared an evening scarf, worth $20. a comforter worth $15 four yards of silk worth $20 and some corduroy cloth worth $1.

Anaheim Gazette, fifty-two weeks for $1.50. day and Saturday Monday and Tuesday THE FINAL DAYS OF Falkenstein's "21 YEARS" INIVERSARY SALE BE SURE TO ATTEND FALKENSTEIN'S BE SURE TO ATTEND WALKENSTEIN'S Thanksgiving day this year will probably always be remembered by Little Jim, Carmelita, Beatrice and Mary Rios, aged 9, 11, 13 and 16, respectively of Fullerton. They are going to eat Belgian hare, instead of turkey, like most other children are going to do, and they are going to eat their dinner all by themselves with the exception of an attendant, who will merely wait on them. Father and mother will not be there. The four little Mexican children are in the isolated ward of the county hospital, where they were confined about a week ago when they were stricken with smallpox. They are recovering rapidly from their illness, but not fast enough to be allowed to go to their home for a real turkey dinner. More than a hundred other inmates of the county hospital will partake of Belgian hare on Thanksgiving day. About ten of the patients in the county hospital are children. At the Community hospital in Santa Ana, a special turkey dinner is being prepared for Thanksgiving day, to be served to more than sixty patients in the institution. Rich and poor will fare alike. Officials of the hospital said they could not afford to serve a turkey dinner, but were going to serve it anyway, regardless of the cost. One little boy, Clarence Patmor, 6, 511 East Washington street, is included among the hospital's patients.

Starting with an appropriated capital of $100,000, which is still held intact in the State Treasury, the State Fund has now reached a position of financial strength and stability which is beyond any competitive criticism. The assets of June 30, 1920 amounted to $4,584,779.14, dividends to policyholders have reached a total of $1,737,447.68, and the State Fund holds a net surplus of $1,497,-035.11 over and above all liabilities. It is expected the premium writings for the year 1920 will exceed $4,000,-000. Charter No. 11823. Reserve District No. 12.
