Mayor William Stark and City Manager O. E. Steward recently witnessed a test of segmental block vitrified pipe at Glendale. This is the pipe that is to be used in the outfall sewer.

Invitations are being extended by the Orange County Central Labor Union to call members and friends of the county bodies of united labor to attend a community mass meeting, which will be held at the tabernacle at Helena and Chestnut streets on Monday, April 2, at 8 o'clock.

Anaheim's Irish population is not large, but the few we have are mighty good citizens.

The body was sent to his old home in Tennessee for burial. Some of the numerous burglaries that have mystified the officers were explained by the arrest Friday by the Anaheim police of six Mexican boys who confessed to having committed various offenses. Several hundred dollars' worth of stolen goods was also recovered. The boys are Fernando Ybarro, Jesus Negrete, Jose Soto, Victor and Rudolph Sorondo and Paul Hernandez. They all reside in the Clementine and Santa Ana street section, near the S. P. tracks. They were turned over to Probation Officer Miller. It is claimed that owing to the reduction of the force of deputy assessors from fourteen to five, in obedience to a supreme court decision, hundreds of owners of personal property will not be assessed this year, and the county stands to lose many thousands of dollars. Maurice Enderly, chief deputy assessor, says that instead of reducing the force it should have been raised in this rapidly growing county. He recommends that veterans of the world war who are allowed exemption under the law, make personal demand at the assessor's office, as many of them will probably not be reached by the assessor this year, consequently taxes must be levied on the assessment of a year ago.

Saturday night is to be "Fun Night" at the Elks' club house.

The body of Mrs. Adelaide Wilcox arrived here Monday from Oregon for burial in Loma Vista cemetery. Funeral was held at Backs, Terry & Campbell's parlors Tuesday. Lyman B. Wilcox, her husband, died several years ago, and was buried in the old home cemetery in Connecticut. The Wilcox family formerly lived on a ranch near Katella, and their residence was the home for some months each year of Ellie Wheeler Wilcox, the famous poet, whose husband was a relative of the ranch.

COLLAPSING You wonder when the European mess will be straightened cut. It may never be. Europe may be doomed to fall into dust, like other civilizations of the past—Egypt, Babylon, China, Arabia. The people of Europe may tire of their staggering burden and flock to countries destined to be world powers within another century—such as Brazil, Australia and parts of Africa. People, like all other forms of animal life, migrate when they find local problems beyond their powers of solution.
