The Entre Nous section of the Ebeli held a card party at the Elks' club house Monday afternoon, the hostesses being Mrs. M. E. Canby, Mrs. W. E. Duckworth, Mrs. A. K. Dahl and Mrs. W. M. Chambers. In the games Mrs. William Jackson was first prize winner and Mrs. F. A. Backs, Jr., captured the second. The Huntington Beach Telephone company has applied to the railroad commission for authority to issue $50,000 in bonds for the purpose of financing the construction of an office building and equipment, and to acquire the property of the Smeltzer Home Telephone and Telegraph company of Orange county. The hitherto undefeated Norwalk ball team can no longer boast of a long list of straight victories. Pete Hax's Anaheim Elks, state champions, defeated Norwalk Sunday on the local diamond by a 6 to 3 score. Norwalk has a good team of semi-professionals and they put up a stiff fight, but were forced to confess that the Anaheim team was composed of superior men. A continuous procession of autos passed up Los Angeles street for two or three hours Sunday evening. The machines were loaded with persons returning home from the Capistrano hill climb. It is said that fifty thousand persons witnessed the race, and the Anaheim police believe that every one of them passed through this city on returning home. The wedding of Miss Esther Pem- Hubert Janss, of San Francisco, is visiting his parents, Dr. and Mrs. Janss, in this city. The cantata, "Golden Legion," will be presented at the White Temple church tonight. Mrs. A. L. Knipe will sustain the leading part, "Ursula." Half an inch of rail fell Sunday night and Monday, bringing the total precipitation for the season 8.10 in Anaheim. This is just half the rainfall of last year. Bandits, burglars and highwaymen have been extremely active for some time past, and now a tree thief has appeared. A ranch at Tustin some nights ago was looted of a large number of persimmon and walnut trees. Three I. W. W. leaders, Dennis Crawley, W. J. Thompson and Pat McGeehan, were arrested at Huntington Beach Saturday charged with criminal syndicalism. They were I. W. W. organizers and agitators. It is said they have formed an organization at Huntington Beach with 280 members. Permits to construct residences have been issued to the following: William Wallop, on North Clementine, $4500; H. E. Pratt, North Clementine, $4500; Mrs. Cecyl Coffman, Emily street, $3,000; Ernest W. Reid, Diamond street, $2800; Oscar Christiansen, Janss street, $2000.

Houts was hostess to Anaheim temple, No. 8, Pytnian Sisters, at her home in Orange Friday, the occasion being a silver tea given by Orange temple. Mrs. Houts was assisted in entertaining by her daughter-in-law, Mrs. W. H.Houts, of this city. A number of ladies as well A continuous procession of autos passed up Los Angeles street for two or three hours Sunday evening. The machines were loaded with persons returning home from the Capistrano hill climb. It is said that fifty thousand persons witnessed the race, and the Anaheim police believe that every one of them passed through this city on returning home. The wedding of Miss Esther Pember and John Kemper is announced to take place at the White Temple on Wednesday, April 25. It is planned to have Rev. R. W. Planette, former pastor of the Presbyterian church at Hecla, S. D., assist Dr. Geissinger in performing the ceremony. The wedding will be an elaborate affair, and a large number of invitations to friends have been sent out. Mrs. Lottie E. Morse and her son, John, have reached home after a tour around the world. They were in Egypt at the time of the opening of King Tut's tomb, and brought back many souvenirs from Egypt, as well as other countries of the world which they visited. They sailed west from San Francisco on the same vessel that carried Dr. and Mrs. Wickett. Judging from the newspaper stories floating out of Sacramento, somebody has lost $919,000 or pretty nearly a million plunks. The question seems to be whether Will C. Wood, of the educational department, has it in his wallet or Mrs. Nellie Pierce, of the state board of control, has placed it in the Woman's First Bank. But wherever it is we hazard a guess that Governor Bill Richardson will find it and make good use of it. Mrs. B. F. Houts was hostess to Anaheim temple, No. 8, Pytnian Sisters, at her home in Orange Friday, the occasion being a silver tea given by Orange temple. Mrs. Houts was assisted in entertaining by her daughter-in-law, Mrs. W. H. Houts, of this city. A number of ladies as well as knights were present from Anaheim. The application of the city of Area for authority to construct North Orange avenue across the tracks of the Pacific Electric railway at grade, has been denied by the railroad commission and a recommendation has been made by the commission that application be made for the construction of the crossing at a location approximately 600 feet westerly of North Pomona avenue at Madrona avenue, where the topographical conditions are quite favorable for the construction. Miss Elizabeth Walker, daughter of the Rev. Thomas H. Walker, pastor of the Anaheim Presbyterian church, was slightly injured Thursday afternoon when she fell while skating on the Alhambra skating rink, according to word received by her parents. She was with a group of friends from Occidental college, where she is a junior student, when the accident occurred. She received several minor lacerations about the face and other slight injuries, but it was stated that she would continue her studies next week. She returned to her home in Anaheim to spend the week-end. FRIDAY A Sale of RIMMED HATS $5.00 Each catch the Windows AT KENSTEIN'S ANAHEIM ATCH the Windows AT ALKENSTEIN'S ANAHEIM Cal. Mike Reagan, of Los Alamitos, was in town Monday on a business mission, and informs us that a large acreage has been planted to sugar beets in that section. The recent rains have been a boon to beet raisers and the prospects are for a bountiful crop. Mr. Reagan has lived here for upward of 35 years and is one of the prosperous citizens of the county. Messrs Ames and McFadden, attorneys, have taken a lease of the second-story rooms of the Masonic temple building on East Center street. The firm will take possession at the expiration of the city's lease, which will be as soon as the new city hall is ready for occupancy. Messrs Ames and McFadden have in view the subletting of the rooms they will not need for offices. Mrs. Margaret D. Moon, a 21-year-old Garden Grove woman, committed suicide Sunday by swallowing strychnine, leaving two small children, aged respectively three years and eighteen months. On December 5, a warrant was issued for the arrest of her husband, George Moon, charging him with embezzling funds from a feed store where he was employed. He disappeared and has not been apprehended. Worrying over this affair, the young woman became despondent, and ended her life with poison. George McPhee, county sealer of weights and measures, was elected councilman from the fourth ward in Santa Ana Monday by a substantial majority over two opponents. McPhee was formerly a member of the council, but a reform spasm retired the entire body. This paper extends congratulations to George. If he proves as efficient in handling the affairs of the coming like a bombshell in the ranks of numbers of local ranchers, and considered a warning against any further similar occurrences whether inadvertent or otherwise, the city board of Orange took drastic action to prevent various local streets from being transformed into miniature canalways by rampant irrigation waters descending from the eastern part of the city. Acting on instructions from the city board, City Marshal M. E. Jemison shortly before noon placed Thos. Dinnis, East Walnut avenue rancher, under arrest on a charge of allowing irrigation water under his control to flow on city streets. Proposed new study courses in the county schools were given for revision to members of the county board of education Saturday and all applications of teachers for life diplomas were approved at a meeting. Though the new courses intend no radical change in the present curriculum, it was the opinion of the board that the proposed changes should be reviewed before adoption. The life diplomas which were approved by the county board and which must be forwarded to the state school department for final action, included those of Gretchen Liebermann, Mabel L. Wright, Levenla Scott, Elizabeth Renshaw, Winfred L. Humphrey, Clarita Ritchey and Myrtle V. Stuelke. W. M. Muckenthaler, Fullerton rancher, announces that he will construct a $30,000 home of twelve rooms. It will be one of the finest residences south of Los Angeles, the plans indicate. With the statement of Mr. Muckenthaler can be coupled the announcement of E. S. Richman, city building inspector, to the effect that building permits for the first quarter of the present year totalled $492,305. George McPhee, county sealer of weights and measures, was elected councilman from the fourth ward in Santa Ana Monday by a substantial majority over two opponents. McPhee was formerly a member of the council, but a reform spasm retired the entire body. This paper extends congratulations to George. If he proves as efficient in handling the affairs of the city as he is in performing the duties of sealer of weights and measures, the city of Santa Ana also deserves to be congratulated. Approximately $9,000,000 will be expended by the American Red Cross during the fiscal year ending next June for the relief of former service men disabled during the world war. Since the care of former soldiers and their dependents has the first call upon the Red Cross services, the national body will spend $3,030,692 for such relief, and with every chapter practically adding to the relief, the total will reach the estimated figure. These funds will be used for services the federal government is not authorized to render and for which it has neither funds nor facilities. CHIX FOR SALE White Leghorn chix; ready March 27th.

It will be one of the finest residences south of Los Angeles, the plans indicate. With the statement of Mr. Muckenthaler can be coupled the announcement of E. S. Richman, city building inspector, to the effect that building permits for the first quarter of the present year totalled $492,305, compared with $402,865 for the corresponding period last year. The March permits totalled $200,025 against $266,915 for March, 1922. In that month last year the $171,000 permit for the California hotel was taken out while the figures for March this year represent largely residences and smaller business buildings. The estate of Nunzio Spaminato, hatchet murder victim, whose mutilated body was discovered near Buena Park, April 1, did not exceed $760. It was learned as Charles D. Brown, public administrator, filed a petition for letters of administration. Despite the fact that "The Red," as the dead man was known, was said to have operated three automobiles, in connection with his asserted bootlegging activities, these were not listed in the petition. His property included $265 in cash, a watch valued at $10, a note for $400, a note for $50, and payments due on the sale of a restaurant in Los Angeles. Class reunions are not so popular except for the first five years after graduation, because it then takes too much time for the old classmates to kid each other about looking as young as ever.
