IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Items of Local Interest Culled from the Files of Former Issues of This Paper The trustees of the Presbyterian church held a meeting last Sunday for the purpose of taking some decisive steps towards the building of a church. The offer of Messrs. Heiman and George to donate two building lots (112x120) was accepted. It was also agreed to purchase an adjoining lot from Mr. J. Keller (30x120) which he had generously offered at a price much below its market value. The trustees passed the following resolutions: Resolved, That the thanks of the Presbyterian church and congregation are hereby tendered to Messrs. Heiman & George and Mr. J. Keller for their kindness and liberality in donating the lots in which to build a church—Resolved, That the thanks of the Presbyterian church and congregation are hereby tendered to Mr. Chas. Geddes of San Francisco, for the plans and specifications for the church building prepared by him and given gratuitously. The board of trustees are Messrs. Pierce, Higgins, Bancroft, Hunter, Tompkins and Mrs. P. C. McKinnie. The gentlemen composing the building committee are J. B. Pierce, Wm. Higgins and J. S. Miles. The estimated cost of the building, according to the plans and specifications adopted by the trustees, will be about three thousand dollars. Two thousand dollars have been already subscribed, and the financial committee will at once proceed to canvass the city for the one thousand dollars necessary to complete paper we find it thusly: Mr. L.

A LEGISLATIVE FARCE Here follows what the Philadelphia Public Leader has to say in commenting on minority tyranny in the United States senate: "In Washington they say the ship subsidy bill is doomed. Its friends have faltered under the fire of the filibusters. They are flying the milk-white flag of surrender to the motley crew of short-grass radicals and barn lot patriots who cannot see beyond the corn rows and red silos of the Midwest and the cotton patches of the South. The hill-billy patriot and the one-gal." ANAHEIM GAZETTE GO former L. Mesmer Hotel in mortally the Venutra herman of geles accchimself at eyfus to S. his land o Chas. F. cho de Los Bohanan.

Langen- lused statesmen from the forks of the creeks have whipped the Republican party and made it kiss the lash. "Whether it is a good bill or a bad one the ship subsidy measure has been doomed without a hearing and sentenced without a trial by a drup-head court-martial. If it is a bad bill this nation will never know, through senate debates, wherein it was bad. If it be a good bill its goodness will never be made known by this senate." The carless-minded opponent of a ship subsidy may rejoice in its defeat without a hearing and without a vote. However, the incident has a more serious aspect. What is becoming of government by majorities? How is any well-intending majority to put in effect a mandate from the people's if a filibustering band of senate maruders have in their power to "take the senate by the throat," as the Lodger puts it? Assuming that this particular measure should be defeated. Even assuming that American pride can be satisfied to have American goods carried under foreign fags while we spend $50,000,000 annually in caring for ships that are rotting in the mud, what then. Does it mean nothing to Americans that the senate is converting into a riot of buffoonery and that a crying majority lacks the moral courage to make a stand for what it professes to be a patriotic program. The time will come when the farm bloc will cry for a broadened market for American products, but that isn't here nor there. The point is that public business is effectively blocked in part owing to the cowardice of senators who lacked the stamina to fight for their rights. IN DEFENSE OF THE GUARD California appears to be on the verge of doing bp sheer neglect, what the "ink" radicals of Wisconsin have IN DEFENSE OF THE GUARD California appears to be on the verge of doing bp sheer neglect, what the "pink" arduals of Wisconsin have apparently accomplished by legislative action—destroying tae national guard. California is one of eight states allotted to make up a national guard quota of 24,500 men for the ninth corps area. This quota constitutes the secondary line of defense for the entire Pacific coast—the first line of defense being the almost incredibly small number of regular troops assigned by the war department to this important area. At the present time the total strength of the guard in this area is 10,500 men—just a little more than 40 percent of the quota. California, assigned to maintain a force of 9,000 men, actually has only about 3500 in its guard—a little more than one third of its allotment, and a proportionately smaller number than the quotas raised by the other seven states. It would be foolish to argue for a strong military force. That woulf be contrary to the spirit of the times and contrary to the express provisions of the present plan of national defense. Remember, please, that the allotment of 24,500 men in this area is a minimum allotent. The entire military establishment is "cut to the bone"—but our actual strength is less than 50 percent of the minimum for the area! And California's national guard is onlp one-third its necessary minimum! While few thoughtful Californians wish to see a powerful military establishment created—with its consequent burdens upon the people, required to support it—all will admit the necessity of an efficient skeleton organization. We are at present without that skeleton organization. We haven't even the possibility of an effective defense for the west coast of the United States. Economy and common sense demand that we exert every effort to prevent the necessity ever again mobilizing for defense; but they demand, no less, that we insist on preparedness. TO AILING WOMEN A Little Sound Advice Will Help Many a Sufferer in Anaheim No woman should consider herself healthy and well if the kidneys are weak. Poisons that pass off in the secretions when the kidneys are well, are retained in the body when the kidneys are disordered. If the kidneys and bladder become inflamed and swollen worse troubles may quickly follow. This l often the cause of bearing-down pains, lameness, backache, etc. Uric poisoning is also frequent cause of headaches, dizzy spells, lanquor, nervousness and rheumatic pain. When suffering so, try Doan's Kidney Pills, a remedy that has proven effective in thousands of such cases. Let an Anaheim woman tell of her experience. Mrs. A. Steafather, 415 E. Chartres St., says: "I am glad to recommend Doan's Kidney Pills, for I have used them with good results. My kidneys caused me to suffer with backache and stamina to fight for their rights." 15 per cent Down, Bal.

With the exception of the bonds voted by Santa Ana, the entire total has been voted by the county within the past six weeks.

HE IS NOT GREAT He is not great who scorns life's little things The humble tasks which make the common day Brighter, small courtesies along the way, A kindly smile, a cheery word that springs Up from teh heart, and with its coming brings Something of happiness, as might a ray Of sunlight shining on a storm tossed bay, Or the faint echo of a voice that sings. He is not great, who scorns the little things, However large the tasks which he may do, If to simplicity he be untrue, Though he should win the flaunting flag of fame, And though he should ascend to sit with kings He has won nothing save an empty name. When suffering so, try Doan's Kidney Pills, a remedy that has proven effective in thousands of such cases. Let an Anaheim woman tell of her experience. Mrs. A. Steafather, 415 E. Chartres St., says: "I am glad to recommend Doan's Kidney Pills, for I have used them with good results. My kidneys caused me to suffer with backache and felt dull and tired out. My kidneys were irregular in action, but I used Doan's Kidney Pills and they stopped the backaches and regulated my kidneys. I felt better in every way and advise anyone having kidney trouble to give Doan's a trial." 60c, at all dealers. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.Y.

And Orange county is prepared to spend another $1,000,000 on its schools this year, it was declared. It means that the business pan, the farmer, the voters of Orange county have realized dollar for dollar returns from previous school investments and willingly invest another $1,000,000 knowing it to be a profitable investment. According to a partial report made by the war finance corporation, there have been repayments of agricultural and livestock loans during the current calendar year in the sum of $176,120,608. These repayments are made by banks, livestock loan companies and co-operative marketing associations.
