Impressive Easter services were held at all the churches in Anaheim Sunday and it is estimated 5000 people attended the various services. It is said there was a wonderful display of spring millinery and new style gowns at the churches, but of course nobody paid any attention to what other people were wearing.

Sheriff Jackson, who was in town on Monday is opposing the bill introduced in the assembly by Hornblower of San Francisco designed to prevent identification bureaus from taking pictures of prisoners until they have been convicted. "Such a law would handicap every sheriff and police officer in the state," said Jackson. "I see no reason why we should not photograph prisoners." The photographs are not made public On the contrary, they are kept on secret file and sometimes prove invaluable in the arrest of desperate criminals". Jackson has a letter from C. S. Morrill, superintendent of the California state bureau of criminal identification and investigation at Sacramento, urging him to use his influence in opposing the bill. The bill as proposed by Assemblyman Hornblower would if passed make it unlawful for the authorities to take a picture of any and all prisoners until convicted of the crime with which they are charged. Residents of Garden Grove school district are to vote April 9 on the proposition of forming a high school district, according to plans announced at the Farm Center Meeting there. A joint committee from the Garden Grove Chamber of Commerce and the Farm Center have been at work on the matter. H. C.

G. Schmelzer, has been very ill for a week past with membranous croup. The Anaheim high school lost in its debate with Compton last Friday, the visitors getting the decision by a score of 192 2-3 to 187 1-3. Ruth Reed and Edward Selme represented the local school. This eliminated Anaheim from the finals for the Southern California championship. For the purpose of providing capital for extending its properties the So. Cal. Edison Co. is offering capital stock in the company for sale among the people in the territory where it operates. The company is rapidly developing its properties and enlarging its business. Its stock pays 8 1-2 per cent dividend. The line-up of the Elks baseball team this season is almost complete and Billy Knott says it is stronger than the great team which came within one game of winning the state championship last year. Most of the old team are again in the line-up, but two or three weak spots have been strengthened. Harry Hughes a coast league pitcher, will alternate with Herb Salveson on the mound, and Grandall, also a coast leaguer, who is now working in a neighboring oil field, has been signed up, probably for second base. Glen Callan, who was playing elsewhere last year is once more in the line-up. Last year the Anaheim team defeated everything in the Southern and Central Leagues, and only lost the state championship by being nosed out by the Sacramento bunch, which was composed almost entirely of the Sacramento League team. But Billy rays the boys will capture the cup this year. The city is profusely plastered over with gaudy colored posters announcing the coming of Howe's Great London Circus and Van Amberg's Wild Animal Show, the same being scheduled to appear here on Thursday, April 7. The writer hereof recollects that when a small boy, almost half a century ago, he got out of bed at the unholy hour of four o'clock in the morning to see Howe's circus pass through the little town in Ohio where he was living. In those days circuses traveled by wagon and on foot. The elephant always walked it, and on his occasion when the big pachyderm reached the center of town the patrilarch of the village stepped out from the crowd and dumped a half bushel of apples in the roadway. It was a feast that no elephant could turn his back—or his tail—to, consequently the animal stopped and began handing apples down his throat with amazing speed, and with intense enjoyment. His keeper, however did not seem to be enjoying himself, but he occupied the time while he was waiting in tearing off and distributing prominously chunks of language hitherto unheard in that peaceful bucolic community. But his remarks had no effect on the elephant. The beast refused to move on until the last apple was swallowed. Every orange growing district of California is expected to vie for exhibit honors at the first annual California Valencia Orange Show, to be held at Anaheim from Tuesday, May 17, to and including Sunday, May 22, according to word from the Valencia Show committee which is hard at work upon what it believes will be another great advertisement for California's fertile soil, and especially for the Valencia orange, a summer variety which has had scant attention at previous winter shows. Not only are the various fruit associations and packing houses expected to exhibit valencia oranges, lemons, grapefruit and other citrus varieties, but growers generally are invited to participate in what will undoubtedly be a show of great merit, and one that will further demonstrate the productiveness of California's matchless soil and sunshine. A five-acre tract facing directly upon the Los Angeles-to-San Diego state highway at the northerly city limits of Anaheim will be utilized for the Valencia Orange Show. The main exhibit tent will be 100 feet wide and 300 feet long, the district and he is to co-operate with the Chamber of Commerce in this work. A report from the joint committees of both organizations is expected within a short time and recommendations as to the amount and nature of the work to be done are expected. Other matters of special interest at the meeting included the discussion of the question of resurfacing the stretch of highway through Garden Grove to Anaheim. A committee was appointed to work with the Farm Center road committee in the matter and to report at the next meeting. J. O Arkley reported that it was the wish of the center and committee that the county free-library plan be carried out and that a library be established in Garden Grove.

KENSTEIN'S ANAHEIM, CAL. HISTORICAL SOCIETY That members of the Orange County Historical society are considering holding the next meeting of the organization two months hence at Arden, which was the home of Madame Helena Modjeska in Santiago canyon, was stated following a meeting of the society Monday at Santa Ana. Mrs. J. E. Pleasants at the next meeting will read a paper dealing with the home of the famous tragedienne. It is stated Mrs. Pleasants' story will have to do also with her personal reminiscences of Madame Modjeska. Those who favor holding the meeting at Arden are enthusiastic over the plan, pointing out that the atmosphere will lend an added touch of interest and charm to the reading of Mrs. Pleasants' paper. Judge Pleasants at the meeting gave an interesting talk on the course that El Camino Real took in the early days. He stated that the famous highway came from the south and skirted Red Hill on the east and thence took practically a direct course to Olive and thence through the La Habra valley and then on to San Gabriel. He is to prepare a map of the Orange county portion of the highway as it existed in the early days. This map will be present at the next meeting of the historical society. Samuel Armor, another pioneer of Orange County, read a paper on "Reminiscenes of Early Days." Armor was intimately connected with the organization of Orange county and also played a leading part in the development of irrigation in the county. He called attention to the fact that in the early days when irrigation was in its infancy the irrigators lost at least three-quarters of the water between the time it was taken into the ditches and the time it was delivered to the ranches. This, he pointed out was due to the make-shift ditches which te farmers were forced to use. Almost many other details of life in Orange county in the early days were given by the speaker.
