ANAHEIM BONDS GILT-EDGED SECURITY LATEST ISSUE OFFERED BRINGS HIGHEST PREMIUM ON THE MARKET National City Company of California Pay $8373 for the $165,000 Issue—Four Other Companies Submit High Bids—Ordinance Calling Election on Annexation of District is Adopted—Maps of Two New Sub-Divisions Approved—Sidnam Protests Closing Street. That Anaheim city bonds are considered gilt-edged was indicated last Thursday night at the meeting of the city trustees, when bids were opened for the $165,000 issue recently voted by the people for improvement purposes. Five bids were submitted, each of them offering a good premium, but the National City company of California was the highest and landed the bonds. The bid of this company was $7373.75. Figures of other bidders prohibition act became effective, the collection of federal retail and wholesale liquor dealers annual license tax for the southern California district amounted to $73,466.48, according to Collector Rex Goodcell. Payment of this license tax enabled the liquor dealer to do business unmolested by federal authorities. Under the operation of the national prohibition act southern California bootleggers have paid $165,202 in fines for one year and in addition to this internal revenue bureau has levied on each of the convicted bootleggers assessments ranging from $550 to $2,500. To the bootleggers cost of operation must also be added the confiscation of automobiles, destruction of seized liquor and the expense of lawyer's fees, not to mention the time lost in serving various terms of imprisonment imposed by the federal courts. Revenue officers pointed out that under a recent supreme court ruling, both federal and state courts may assess punishment for the same violations of the prohibition act. This will impose another double penalty on the bootleggers in the way of two fines. It is predicted that bootleggers will be compelled to increase the cost of liquor to $50 per quart, in order to show a profit. Collector Goodcell said that $155,603.26 was collected in distilled spirit tax for six months ending January 1, as against $327,922.02 for the same per- That Anaheim city bonds are considered gilt-edged was indicated last Thursday night at the meeting of the city trustees, when bids were opened for the $165,000 issue recently voted by the people for improvement purposes. Five bids were submitted, each of them offering a good premium, but the National City company of California was the highest and landed the bonds. The bid of this company was $7373.75. Figures of other bidders were: Citizens' National Bank of Los Angeles, $7317.16; R. H. Moulton & Co., $6707; Wm. R. Staats Co., $6538; Harris Trust & Savings Co., $4505. It was stated by representatives of the bidders present that other cities were selling bonds at par, therefore Anaheim should be proud of the fact that her offerings commanded such premiums. The issue is divided into three funds—$100,000 for construction of the city park, $40,000 for completion of the city hall, and $25,000 for street work. All of the proposals carried by large majorities at the election. City Attorney Weisel has mailed to the companies copies of all ordinances covering the election and sale of the bonds. These will be scrutinized by attorneys for the buyers before completion of the sale is made. The trustees will immediately advertise for bids for printing the bonds. The ordinance calling an election on the proposed annexation of a district northwest of the city limits, was adopted. It fixes the data of election for February 15. Only those living in the district will vote on the question. Maps of the W. B. Allen tract and the California Square tract, both in the north part of the city were approved. A map of the Wellman tract on the east, at the corner of Placentia avenue and Center streets, was presented, but as this property is outside the city limits the board has no authority over it. It developed at this meeting that the city's sewer farm at Stanton has not been conducted in a satisfactory manner. It was decided that the tenant must pay all rent due to date and also make an advance payment. His petition to sublet portions of the ranch to Jap gardeners was turned down, and a complaint from the county horticultural commissioner to the effect that the Russian thistle was permitted to flourish on the place, caused much concern. This is a violation of the state law. GRAND JURORS MAKE MANY RECOMMENDATIONS Nearly Every School in County Over-taxed, Says Report County schools, the detention home for juveniles, the county jail and several city governments are included in suggestions for bettering conditions, included in a report of the grand jury, which was presented to Superior Judge R. Y. Williams at 2 o'clock Monday afternoon. Following the presentation of the report and its formal acceptance by the court, the grand jury was dismissed at 2:12 o'clock Monday afternoon. In the matter of schools, the report stated that investigation revealed nearly every school in the county taxed beyond capacity and that as fast as new schools were built they were also filled. The fact that the state law requires adequate fire escapes for all two-story buildings is not being observed in some ne wschools the grand jury report stated, but failed to give specific instances. The county jail was found to be in first class condition, but taxed far beyond its capacity, originally set at 90. More than 200 prisoners were in the jail over the week-end. The grand jury suggested that the county make special arrangements for the working both federal and state courts may assess punishment for the same violations of the prohibition act. This will impose another double penalty on the bootleggers in the way of two fines. It is predicted that bootleggers will be compelled to increase the cost of liquor to $50 per quart, in order to show a profit. Collector Goodcell said that $155,603.26 was collected in distilled spirit tax for six months ending January 1, as against $327,922.02 for the same period of 1921. This slump in receipts indicates that very little tax paid liquor is leaving the government warehouses. Receipts for special narcotic taxes for the last six months of 1922 were only $6376.61, compared with $15,586.63 for the corresponding period of 1921. This special tax is imposed on importers, manufacturers, wholesale and retail dealers and physicians. The fact that the receipts for 1921 were nearly 250 per cent greater than for 1922 shows that the government's warfare on narcotics is weeding out violators of the law and reducing the number of persons who handle drugs. One of the acts passed legislature was one county officials could do the working force investments during their term. This act was arbitrary able, because in certain sections of the south section of this nation growing and increasing so rapidly rests of the public we cause officials at these would be hampered force,and many business would suffer delay. A recent decision of court declared the law and made it effective, so of the officials of this compelled to dispense services of many needed aid of the effects of this is business of the banks in aggreaving and costly. The recorder's office with work, and real estate must wait until the crew able to handle them. where so many hundred are made every day, this serious drawback, but bankers declare that only suffering all kindsience on account of co obtain at this time and lief in sight unless their literature remedies the event which will enable coun hire enough deputies to necessary work. If successfully gotten through legislature it will probably forethe law is effective ties of the state report. Bringing back the wart attorneys all over the town to co-operate in a fight decision of the supreme powers of county or their office held during office, District Attorneys is home from a trip as far north as Oakland." the city's sewer farm at Stanton has not been conducted in a satisfactory manner. It was decided that the tenant must pay all rent due to date and also make an advance payment. His petition to sublet portions of the ranch to Jap gardeners was turned down, and a complaint from the county horticultural commissioner to the effect that the Russian thistle was permitted to flourish on the place, caused much concern. This is a violation of the state law. City Manager Steward announced that Anaheim and Fullerton had both voted bonds for construction of the outfall sewer, and it was probable that they would advertise them for sale simultaneously, in order that one city would have no advantage of the other. The city of Orange, it was reported, cannot call a bond election for this purpose until the city has entered into a definite agreement with the other cities, as Orange petitioned for connection with the outfall sewer after the plans had been officially adopted by the other cities and bond elections held. A petition signed by B. H. Sidnam protesting against the closing of a section of West Santa Ana street, was received and filed for future action. LARGE REVENUE FROM BOOTLEGGING BUSINESS Collector Goodcell Makes Public Figures for Past Year Announcement that during 1922 bootleggers had paid the southern California federal courts $165,202 in fines, developed the fact that the present-day dealer in liquor is paying an enormous increase over what it cost him to do business during the wet days. For the entire year 1914 before the also filled. The fact that the state law requires adequate fire escapes for all two-story buildings is not being observed in some ne wschools the grand jury report stated, but failed to give specific instances. The county jail was found to be in first class condition, but taxed far beyond its capacity, originally set at 90. More than 200 prisoners were in the jail over the week-end. The grand jury suggested that the county make special arrangements for the working of vagrants, to aid in lessening the crowded situation. Immediate action by the board of supervisors in the detention home was urged in the report which stated that the juvenile home was in a "deplorable condition." Two additional motorcycle officers were suggested by the grand jury and the appointment of the special investigator for the district attorney was urged. THE CARROLL TRACT One of the new residence tracts recently opened which is reporting phenomenal sales is the Carroll tract, cornering at South and Los Angeles streets. This ranch was sub-divided only a few weeks ago, but Earl Steadman, who has charge of the business, reports numerous inquiries and many sales. Lots in this tract are offered at from $1000 to $2000, with an initial payment of 15 per cent, the balance on terms that will fit the pocket book of a laboring man. The situation is one of the best in Anaheim's environments. The neighborhood is a coming one, and there are no drawbacks that could make a man regret in future years that he located there. Map of the tract was recently accepted by the city trustees. Bringing back the work attorneys all over the town to co-operate in a fight decision of the supreme court is working hardship on the business of office, District Attorney is home from a trip as far north as Oakland. "Everywhere," Nelson recognized that the decree court is working hardship on the business of office. An act started in Alameda county mandamus proceeding heard in the supreme court 5th. "One phase of the act a decision as to whether fliccer, under an act of can add a deputy to his other phase concerns to crease a deputy's salary.

Nelson interviewed district at Bakersfield, Fresno, ced, Oakland, San Luis Barbara and Ventura. It is better to have times" now than to have in old age. AHEIM GAZET Anaheim, California, Thursday, January 18, 1923 COUNTY HARD HIT BY DECISION OF COURT ESCROW BUSINESS HAMPERED ON ACCOUNT OF RECORDER'S SMALL FORCE Real Estate Transactions Held Up Because Clerks Are Unable to Handle the Transfer Business—County Attorneys Conferring in an Effort to Find Some Method of Relieving the Situation—Only Hope is That the Present Legislature Will Repeal the Intolerable Law. There are too many laws on the statute books of California, and each successive legislative body deems it necessary to grind out a few more, whether or not there is a crying need for them. Members of the legislature appear to be obsessed with the idea that unless they pass laws of some kind their constituents will believe that they are getting money from the state under false pretenses. One of the acts passed by the last ORANGE BLOSSOMS AT. THE COONS RESIDENCE Miss Ruth Coons and Robert Gregg United in Marriage. Tuesday was a day of double significance at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Richard La Salle Coons, of northeast of town, for it marked for them a silver wedding anniversary and was also the chosen day for the wedding of their daughter, Ruth Louise and Mr. Robert B. Gregg, both of this city. The home was very prettily decorated in pink carnations and violets. The wedding was charming in its simplicity. Mrs. A. K EnEarl rendered on the piano Cadman's "Love Song," followed by solos by Miss Louise Montgomery, cousin of the bride, "At Dawning" (Cadman), and Miss Alice Grimshaw, "Oh Promise Me." To the strains of Lohengrin's wedding march, the bride entered on her father's arm preceded by the maid of honor, Miss Jessie Coons, sister of the bride, Master Manlo des Granges, cousin, ringbearer, and little Miss Rosalind Beebe, flower girl. The groom was attended by Mr. Glenn Hartranft, and they joined the bride under a bower of ferns, where the Rev. Thomas Holmes Walker, of the Filirst Thomas Holmes Walker, of the First the double ring ceremony. The bride was gowned in white georgette, her coronet veil being CHURCH MOVES AT DEMAND OF BUSINESS CHRISTIAN PEOPLE SELL THEIR SITE AND WILL ERECT A NEW EDIFICE William Sperber Pays $28,000 for the Ground at Helena and Center Streets and Will Cover it With a Commercial Building—Congregation to Hold Services in Tabernacle on Helena, Between Chestnut and Broadway, Until New Church is Built. One of the most important realty deals of the week was the transfer, through the Lamb & Wright agency of the Christian church site, at the northeast corner of Helena and Center streets, to William Sperber, the consideration being $28,000. For many months the congregation of the church has been considering the matter of building a new church edifice, as the membership had outgrown the present building. Some of the members favored treatment Water Angeles; the outfitting plant at only bid; the meeting of trustees to the job; In the office of Anah acted as all, 14 Ana, Antoine took part; Englehane pared place; Clerk Elected instructed construction placementington B.; The clique for installation to complete to 243; end of time ocean. Present Guntherer, Davis, M Gates, M There are too many laws on the statute books of California, and each successive legislative body deems it necessary to grind out a few more, whether or not there is a crying need for them. Members of the legislature appear to be obsessed with the idea that unless they pass laws of some kind their constituents will believe that they are getting money from the state under false pretenses. One of the acts passed by the last legislature was one providing that county officials could not increase the working force in their departments during their term of office. This act was arbitrary and unreasonable, because in certain counties in the south section of the state population is growing and official business increasing so rapidly that the interests of the public would suffer because officials at the court house would be hampered by insufficient force and many business transactions would suffer delay. A recent decision of the supreme court declared the law constitutional and made it effective, therefore most of the officials of this county were compelled to dispense with the services of many needed assistants. One of the effects of this is that the escrow business of the banks is hampered and aggravating and costly delays result. The recorder's office is overwhelmed with work, and real estate transfers must wait until the crippled force is able to handle them. In a county where so many hundreds of transfers are made every day, this is not only a serious drawback, but an outrage. Bankers declare that they are not only suffering all kinds of inconvenience on account of conditions which obtain at this time and there is no relief in sight unless the present legislature remedies the evil by new laws, which will enable county officials to hire enough deputies to perform the necessary work. If such laws are successfully gotten through the present legislature it will probably be July before the law is effective. Other counties of the state report like conditions. Bringing back the word that district attorneys all over the state are ready to co-operate in a fight to reverse the decision of the supreme court limiting the powers of county officers to add to their office held during their terms of office, District Attorney A. P. Nelson is home from a trip that took him as far north as Oakland. "Everywhere," Nelson said, "it is her father's arm preceded by the maid of honor, Miss Jessie Coons, sister of the bride, Master Manio des Granges, cousin, ringbearer, and little Miss Rosalind Beebe, flower girl. The groom was attended by Mr. Glenn Hartranft, and they joined the bride under a bower of ferns, where the Rev. Thomas Holmes Walker, of the First Thomas Holmes Walker, of the First double ring ceremony. The bride was gowned in white georgette, her coronet veil being caught by a wreath of orange blossoms. Which had been worn by her aunt, Mrs. Victor Montgomery, of Santa Ana, a number of years ago. A rope of pearls, the gift of the groom, was her only adornment. She carried a bonquet of bride roses and breath of heaven. Miss Jessie Coons, the maid of honor, wore a white over blue crepe de chine gown and carried a bouquet of orchid sweet peas. The bride is a member of one of the oldest families of this vicinity, her grandparents having come to Anaheim in 1869, and her grandfather, Dr. J. S. Gardiner, being one of the early physicians of this town. She numbers a large circle of friends, formed through her school days at Anaheim, Fullerton and Occidental college, and her active interest in church and school life here. The groom, who is a son of Mr. and Mrs. George E. Fletcher, of this city, saw extended and difficult service in the navy during the recent world war, and is now employed by the Standard Oil company in Anaheim. Shortly after receiving congratulations the bride and groom left for a short honeymoon. Upon their return they will reside at their cozy new home at 510 South Citron street, where they will be at home to their friends after February 15. A number of relatives and friends of Mr. and Mrs. Coons remained for the evening to extend congratulations on their silver anniversary. There were a few present Tuesday who were present at the wedding 25 years ago, notably Mrs. Victor Montgomery, sister of Mrs. Coons, and Mrs. Joseph Helmsen. A number of local friends called during the evening to extend congratulations. Mrs. Coons was assisted in receiving by Mrs. Victor Montgomery and Mrs. John R. Gardiner and Miss Gettrude Montgomery and Miss Suzanne Dean; in serving by Mesdames Willis Elder, Floyd Starkey and Harley Brewer and then Miss Anita Herler Nellie Cobb One of the most important reality deals of the week was the transfer, through the Lamb & Wright agency of the Christian church site, at the northeast corner of Helena and Center streets, to William Sperber, the consideration being $28,000. For many months the congregation of the church has been considering the matter of building a new church edifice, as the membership had outgrown the present building. Some of the members favored using the old ground for the new structure, but others advocated moving to a site further removed from the business section. The matter was settled at the annual meeting Friday night, when it was voted to accept the offer of Mr. Sperber. The new owner purchases only the ground, and it is stipulated in the contract that the building must be removed within sixty days. It is understood that Mr. Sperber expects to erect a large business building of some kind on the property, but he has declined to make public what his intentions are. This church was built twenty-six years ago. When completed it was considered the finest church building in the city. It stood in the suburbs then, there being few buildings to the west of it, and the ground on which it stands cost the congregation but a few hundred dollars. Now it stands in the fringe of the business district, is being crowded out by the demands for more room for business houses, and the bare ground sells for $400 per front foot. A site for the new church has not yet been decided upon, but ground on Helena street, between Chestnut and Broadway, is under lease, and a tabernacle will be erected thereon for temporary use until the new church is built. Work on the tabernacle will begin at once, as the new owner must be given possession of the ground within sixty days. In addition to disposing of the church property at the annual meeting Friday night, new officers for the coming year were elected as follows: Elders, George McGuire, I. W. Poling; deacons, N. F. Ballou, J. D. Guy, K. C. King, H. Harling, Lee Jones, George Alexander; deaconess, Mrs. H. S. Leavitt; financial secretary, J. A. Baker; treasurer, D. J. Pitts; pianist, Miss Iris McKinney; assistant pianist, Mrs. Dorothy Dickenson; ushers, A. M. Irwin, H. Harling and Ralph Dickenson.

Bringing back the word that district attorneys all over the state are ready to co-operate in a fight to reverse the decision of the supreme court limiting the powers of county officers to add to their office held during their terms of office, District Attorney A. P. Nelson is home from a trip that took him as far north as Oakland. "Everywhere," Nelson said, "it is recognized that the decision of the supreme court is working a decided hardship on the business operations of the counties. An action has been started in Alameda county. It is a mandamus proceeding, and will be heard in the supreme court February 5th. "One phase of the actions calls for a decision as to whether a county officer, under an act of the legislature, can add a deputy to his force, and another phase concerns the right to increase a deputy's salary. "The hope of those making the fight is that the supreme court will tender a decision reversing the opinion expressed in the October case. In the October case, the court went outside of the point raised. That is, the declarations, undr which the office help situation was thrown into the air, were mere dictum. "The supreme court, therefore, in deciding the mandamus case, may take a different view from that expressed in the October case." Nelson interviewed district attorneys at Bakersfield, Fresno, Modesto, Merced, Oakland, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara and Ventura. It is better to have fewer "good times" now than to have none of them in old age. PERMIT IS ISSUED FOR NEW KRAEMER BUILDING Structure to Cost $255,000, Being Most Costly Ever Erected in County Permits for the Samuel Kraemer building at the corner of Center and North Philadelphia, were taken out on Tuesday. The total cost of the building to be constructed in the county, the costliest building ever erected in the county. It is the second class A building to be constructed in this count, the Chapman building at Fullerton, costing $250,000, being first. The building is to be three stories and a basement, having a frontage on Center street of 150 feet, and on Philadelphia of 90 feet. The ground floor will be cut into eight store rooms, and the two upper stories divided into 32 suites for living purposes. Excavating for the foundation began the first of the week. Wilson & Bever have the contract for the construction work, and the Union Iron Works, of Los Angeles, for the steel. The girl who merely marries for a home usually finds she has nothing but a house. FULLERTON BOASTS OF A TROUSSEAU BURGLAR Police of Fullerton, and operatives of the sheriff's office, are baffled in an effort to apprehend a "trousseau" burglar suspected of being a woman who has been operating in Fullerton recently. Entering the home of S. Silverman, 236 West Malvern avenue, Fullerton, the burglar stole women's clothing, consisting chiefly of silk underwear, valued at several hundred dollars. Entrance was gained through a rear door. The screen was cut, and the door was opened with a jimmy.

Contract for the joint outfall sewer treatment plant was awarded the Water Works Supply company, of Los Angeles Friday night at a meeting of the outfall sewer committee. The Los Angeles concern's bid calls for installation of the sewer screening plant at a cost of $39,987. It was the only bid submitted and was opened at the meeting of the Santa Ana board of trustees last Monday and submitted to the joint commission for discussion. In the absence of Chairman Stark, of Anaheim, Mayor John G. Mitchell acted as chairman of the meeting. In all, 14 representatives, from Santa Ana, Anaheim, Orange and Fullerton took part in the meeting. Engineers were instructed to prepare plans and specifications and City Clerk Edward Vegely, of Santa Ana, instructed to advertise for bids for construction of a building at the treatment plant to be located on the Huntington Beach-Talbert road. The clerk was also advised to advertise for bids for steel pipe with which to complete the line from stations 222 to 243, which will complete the lower end of the line extending into the ocean. Present at the meeting: Mayor Gunther, Trustees Walton and Drake, Davis, Moore, of Fullerton; Trustees Gates, Mann and Stock, of Anaheim; BANK ENLARGING ITS SPACE AND BUSINESS ANAHEIM NATIONAL RE-ARRANGING THE ENTIRE INTERIOR OF BUILDING Escrow Business to Have Separate Department Hereafter—Room in the Rear Added to Give More Space. Ladies' Rest Room to Be Installed Above the Vaults—Tourist Tells Mayor Stark That City Hall is a Beautiful Bank Building When the work of overhauling and re-arranging the Anaheim National bank is completed, that financial institution will have quarters equal to any in this section for convenience. The new arrangement gives the bank also a large additional space, as a partition was removed adding another room to the bank premises. In this addition will be located the vaults, and directly above these will be a ladies' rest room. The directors' room also will WORK STARTED ON NEW PACKING HOUSE The Anaheim Valencia Growers' association last week let the contract for a new packing house to be built on East Center street at the Santa Fe tracks to Dan Coons, of Fullerton, and work on the new structure started Monday. The building is to be 90x140 feet in dimensions, and will be equipped with all modern appliances. Frank K. Benchley, of Fullerton, was the architect who drew the plans. William Webster is manager of the new association, and L. E. Cameron, field representative. Both are familiar with the business, having been with the California Fruit Growers' Exchange for a number of years. A considerable acreage for the new association has been signed up without solicitation. It is the opinion of the promoters of the ne wassociation that the Valencia crop is growing too large in this section for the present houses to handle, consequently there will be plenty of business for the new house. W. L. Benchley and William Webster, men with experience in the packing and marketing of oranges, are getting under way with their new project, the Anaheim Valencia Growers' association. Since 1914 Webster has been with the field department of the California Fruit Growers' Exchange and in this capacity, gained a vast knowledge of the orange packing and selling business. Benchley, besides being well versed in the market phase of the industry has had extensive training in the packing game, being head of the Benchley Fruit Packing company, of Fullerton. The Anaheim Valencia Growers' association enters the packing and dis- When the work of over hauling and re-arranging the Anaheim National bank is completed, that financial institution will have quarters equal to any in this section for convenience. The new arrangement gives the bank also a large additional space, as a partition was removed adding another room to the bank premises. In this addition will be located the vaults, and directly above these will be a ladies' rest room. The directors' room also will be moved back into the added space. The cage in which the man who handles the cash work will be on the Lemon street side, with three or four tellers' windows in it, and on the opposite, behind a low partition, President W. A. Dolan and Cashier A. B. McCord will have offices. On this side also is an office for the escrow department, which is being given an office separate from the regular business of the bank. A competent man, expert in escrow work, will have charge of this. The lobby of the bank is much enlarged and the new arrangement makes a wonderful improvement in the institution. The rapidly increasing business made enlargement and re-arrangement necessary. ALL BANKS GROWING As a matter of fact all the banks of the city are making such rapid growth that before long they will be compelled to follow the example of the Anaheim National and enlarge their quarters. Some of them may use the city's municipal building for a pattern. Mayor William Stark stood on the street a day of two ago rubbering at the new city hall and congratulating himself and the people of Anaheim on its appearance. He was approached by a tourist, who remarked: "That is a beautiful structure for a bank in a city of this size to build. Your financial institutions here must be prospering." "All the banks in the city are growing with the town," the mayor answered, "and each one of them could afford to put up a building equal to this one. But this is our city hall. The five banks will each probably erect a building finer than this one in a year or two." "Some town," remarked the stranger. "You said it," replied the mayor. Since 1914 Webster has been with the field department of the California Fruit Growers' Exchange and in this capacity, gained a vast knowledge of the orange packing and selling business. Benchley, besides being well versed in the market phase of the industry has had extensive training in the packing game, being head of the Benchley Fruit Packing company, of Fullerton. The Anaheim Valencia Growers' association enters the packing and distributing field with many new forms of service—service that will undoubtedly appeal to ranchers. The association will maintain a picking service, will place the fruit on the market under the Sunkist trademark, will issue a daily bulletin giving comprehensive information on marketing conditions, will pick, haul, pack and market fruit at cost and will offer other attractive features. Growers do not have to take stock in the packing plant or equipment. wardrobes throughout the house were ransacked, and virtually every bit of women's clothing of value was taken, according to sheriff's men who investigated. Deputy Sheriff Herman Zabel, head of the county bureau of identification, assisted by Under Sheriff E. E. French co-operated with Fullerton police in attempting to obtain fingerprints which might lead to the apprehension of the burglar. Following closely upon several other burglaries, in which women's clothing was the loot, this affair was puzzling to the authorities. In each case only such articles as might form a portion of a bride's trousseau, were stolen. A maid had recently been discharged from the employ of the Silvermans, it was stated. Authorities were investigating this circumstance. "All the banks in the city are growing with the town," the mayor answered, "and each one of them could afford to put up a building equal to this one. But this is our city hall. The five banks will each probably erect a building finer than this one in a year or two." "Some town," remarked the stranger. "You said it," replied the mayor. GRIBBLING SUES BOARD The Anaheim union high school trustees were involved in another suit on file in superior court. A. L. Gribbbling, contractor, was the complainant in the action. He seeks to recover $45,133.97, which he claims, is due him for work on a building erected for the district. In June, 1922, Gribbbling took a contract for $147,691, he claimed. He had nearly finished when the district trustees stopped the work and ordered him and his workmen from the premises, he declared. He had, at this time, performed services worth $129,585.82. He received only $84,401.85, leaving $45,133.97 due, he alleged. Attorneys Schweitzer and Hutton, of Los Angeles, represented the plaintiff. The suit is one of about a dozen that have resulted from a disagreement in construction work of the high school building. Mrs. G. M. Tedrick, Mrs. Frank Machelb,Mrs. Perry Mathis,Mrs. E. J. Cornwell and Mrs. Roberta Gregg attended the recent meeting of the Pacific branch of the Woman's Foreign Missionary society held at Huntington Park. It was voted to hold the April meeting of the society in Anaheim, and several hundred delegates from all sections of the coast will attend.
