IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO Items of Local Interest Culled from the Files of Former Issues of This Paper From Gazette of Sept. 27, 1873. The schooner "Emily Schroeder," Capt. Jansen, sailed from Anaheim Landing on Thursday with 2500 sacks of grain. Turtle soup is a common article of diet at the Anaheim hotel. The olly, well fed appearance of Max's guests denote high living. (Max Nebelung was the proprietor of the Anaheim hotel.—Ed.) H. Boege, while attempting a difficult feat on the horizontal bar, last Monday night fell and hurt himself severely. He has since been confined to bed, and suffers considerable pain. Messrs. LaRue, Nebelung and Ellis returned from the Arlington mines on Wednesday. Work is being vigorously prosecuted on the various ledges and the developments are highly satisfactory. A few days ago, eight tons of ore were shipped to San Francisco via Los Angeles from the silver peak mine. This is the fire ore sent by way of Los Angeles as the transportation costs much more than when sent by Anaheim Landing. W. M. Crawford, of the Texas Pacific, passed through town on Wednesday. He reports his road in a flourishing condition. M. R. Gaddy, the genial liveryman, has returned from his pleasure trip to San Jacinto Hot Springs. a few days. This is a sad, sad blow, for who will encase our shapely limbs, and fit the graceful contour of our person, as he has done? Alas: We can stand the loss of a wheel-wright. And a teamster without shedding tears; But what shall we do without Reick? That glorious knight of the shears. The Ladies' Social Club.—On Wednesday evening the second entertainment of the Ladies' Social club of Anaheim, was given with marked success. The embarrassment, always attendance upon first essays before an audience and which was shown to a slight degree in the first performance, had given away to a confidence, which added greatly to the successful personality of the different characters, and made the evening's entertainment one of the most enjoyable which has ever taken place in Anaheim. The tableaux were: "After the Masquerade," "Pocahontas Saving the Life of Capt. Smith," "Night and Morning," "The Sleeping Beauty," and the "Shower of Gold." A farce entitled "The Miserables" was also performed with Messrs. L. and R., of Los Alamitos, in the principal characters. The whole concluded with "The Shadow Pantomine." The interludes were admirably filled up by the aid of Miss H., of this place, who kindly volunteered her musical talents, both vocal and instrumental, to assist in making the affair.

A less silver peak mine. This is the fire ore sent by way of Los Angeles as the transportation costs much more than when sent by Anaheim Landing. W. M. Crawford, of the Texas Pacific, passed through town on Wednesday. He reports his road in a flourishing condition. M. R. Gaddy, the genial liveryman, has returned from his pleasure trip to San Jacinto Hot Springs. Edward S. Baker, traveling agent and correspondent of the Crocutts Western World, is writing up this section for his paper. M. L. Goodman is anxious to go to San Francisco for a new stock of goods, and earnestly desires that those indebted to him should advance the required money. Fairview Grange has leased the Masonic hall and will hereafter hold their meetings at that place. Services will be held in the Catholic church on Sunday, October 5th. The telegraph poles between Anaheim and San Diego are being thoroughly overhauled by the construction agent, Mr. Coons. Andrew Johnson, of the firm of Crowther and Johnson, will bid adieu to Anaheim on Monday. He travels overland to Shasta county, where he intends to locate permanently. George Horn will probably wend his weary way toward the grassy plains of Alameda county. We cannot imagine what George is leaving us for, unless it is because of the superior article of tobacco produced by the soil of Alameda. A good pipe of tobacco would draw him even further than that. And M. F. Reick will fold up his cloth like a tailor and silently glide away in the direction of San Diego, in BEWARE OF GRADE CROSSINGS SAYS PRESIDENT GRAY "He who hesitates at grade crossings is safe," says President Carl R. Gray, of the Union Pacific system, in his monthly talk for October. To hesitate means to pause before acting. Failure to do so has caused the deaths that neither the railorads nor the municipalities have the money, and that the railroads could raise the money only by raising the rates, the remedy must be applied here and now. The stop, look and listen rule can be made effective at once, without any cost, except the price of a few seconds wait BEWARE OF GRADE CROSSINGS SAYS PRESIDENT GRAY "He who hesitates at grade crossings is safe," says President Carl R. Gray, of the Union Pacific system, in his monthly talk for October. To hesitate means to pause before acting. Failure to do so has caused the deaths of 9101 persons in the last five years, which Mr. Gray reminds us is almost twice the number killed in the battle of Gettysburg. Railroading in America has been so highly developed that serious collisions and derailments are now rare, as compared with thirty or forty years ago. Large railroad systems sometimes go for years without a single fatal mishap to a passenger on their trains. The face value of some accident insurance policies automatically doubles in case of injury in a steam train accident. One is safer, therefore on a train than at home. On the other hand why is travel by automobile unsafe? Mr. Gray gives two reasons. Except in a few states automobile drivers are not examined before being licensed and in not more than one case out of five does the driver stop and look in either direction at grade crossings. Something must be done at once to stop this awful sacrifice of human life. Eliminating all grade crossings is not the remedy, according to Mr. Gray, who points out that there are 250,000 such crossing in the United States and at an average of $50,000 it would cost $12,500,000,000 to remove them, and at least thirty years would be required to do the work. Aside from the fact that neither the railorads nor the municipalities have the money, and that the railroads could raise the money only by raising the rates, the remedy must be applied here and now. The stop, look and listen rule can be made effective at once, without any cost, except the price of a few seconds wait at the crossing to let pass the train which by law and common sense has the right of way. Two features of the grade crossing accident question need emphasizing. When a motorist races with a train and scoots over the crossing just in front of it, or if he stops, but gives the engineer no evidence that he intends to do so, the engineer suffers a severe nervous shock which frequently unnerves him. Nor are the occupants of the automobile the only ones whose lives are imperiled by grade crossing accidents. Recently several trains on eastern roads have been derailed by colliding with motor vehicles and enginemen and passengers have been killed. The railroads carry on nation-wide "Cross Crossings Carefully" campaigns. They maintain warning signs. They require enginemen to sound the whistle and the bell at every grade crossing. They provide crossing bells, watchmen and gates where necessary. It is only right that motorists should do their part by stopping to look in both directions and listen before attempting to go across. If every motorist would take the pledge to do that, crossing accidents and not human lives, would be wiped out. At the same time department of agriculture co-operate with department of agriculture depredations of borer. This deserves operating only on the states, slowing with the frontier da has been tight and has much to offer useful expert hand, a special Canada, of fight means o fa para worked out in this in this, because kill the parasite good case for co-nating the comm each country may riers against ther usual practice. Little by little work together in their mutual well lightened effort American nations taking a leading Who demands privateyge. WORK OF THE INDUSTRIAL ACCIDENT COMMISSION As has been found the case every year the approach of autumn shows an increase of controversies filed with the state industrial accident commission. For August the cases filed were 227, compared with 193 in July, which seems to be the "zero" month of the year for amount of originating business. This, however, has not prevented the staff keeping up with their work, for the cases decided in August, numbering 223, practically equaled those filed, and in July the decisions exceeded the filings by seven. These figures compare well with the average filed and decided during the first six months of 1923, numbering 212 per month, and show a decided increase over the average for the year 1922, in which the filings were 191 per month and the decisions 183. In pursuance of Governor Friend W. Richardson's plan of economy with efficiency the commission, with John A. McGilvray as chairman, has adopted the plan of holding "summary" hearings once a week, following a continuous calendar on which are placed all cases which do not promise any difficulty or lengthy testimony. Formerly every case was set at a definite hour and assigned to a special referee, and the entire testimony taken down in shorthand by the reporter in attendance and ordinarily transcribed in full. Unde the summary plan no testimony is reported and the cases are informally heard one after the other by the same referee, who renders his decisions forthwith unless he deems it advisable to consult the commission. The experiment seems to be working with satisfaction to all concerned, and permits the remaining cases to be handled more expeditiously and with a reduced staff. A less number of referees is cent to the world. If America could do so great a work for the world not merely in spite of but actually because of her non-membership in the league of nations why should she handicap and cripple herself for further service by joining that "evil thing with a holy name?" WORLD'S CHAMPION COW The world's champion cow, according to a record recently completed, is DeKol Plus Segis Dixie, a Holstein owned by the Raymondale farm at Vaudreuil, Quebec. In her ninth year this remarkable animal produced 33,-465 pounds of milk, which contained 1349 pounds of butterfat, enough to make 1687 pounds of butter—an average of 4.6 pounds for every day in the year. A four-year-old son of the new champion sold at public auction for $14,100. A pessimist is one who thinks there are more hornets in the woods than butterflies in the fields. NEW BIG PACKAGE 111 Cigarettes 24 for 15¢ A rule has been adopted by which no testimony, although reported, is to be transcribed except for special reasons. At the same time the referees have been clothed with larger discretion and authority than formerly. This is an experiment which is being watched with great interest by everyone concerned with compensation work. In addition to the formal controversies noted above many hundred persons call during each month at the office of the commission's secretary for information and advice, and for medical examination, and the removal of quarters to the state building has not served to diminish their number. Another department deals with permanent disabilities and reports ratings of highly technical character both upon informal application and in connection with formal cases. Ratings made in July and August were respectively 303 and 240, compared with the monthly average since January of 267, in 1922 of 197, and in 1921 of 207. It has been noted in other states, as in California that lately the number of permanent disabilities calling for assessment has been steadily increasing, representing a corresponding increase in accidents occurring from six to twelve months previously. CANADIAN CO-OPERATION There is to be an international conference between Canada and the United States on the question of rum-running. The Canadian government, and the British government through which it still speaks, have come at last to see the justice of the Washington viewpoint and express their willingness to do all they can to help this country in its hard task of enforcing the prohibition law. If they can check in which he undertook to do what heard from him in 1921 no rhetoric about voices in the air, but some very practical and concrete facts about things on the earth. He made no attempt to revolutionize the constitution of the world; but he employed the familiar and well-approved methods of diplomacy to bring the nations together in council for the common good. In doing so he did not hold aloof from the representatives of the people, but sought their intimate cooperation. When the great conference was assembled he sought to exercise no autocracy; but on the contrary he withdrew himself from the sceen and let the accredited ministers of the nations work out the great problems according to their instructions and their own best judgment. The result was the greatest possible refutation of the babble about our isolation from an indifference to the welfare of the world, and also of the pretense that America can do nothing for the welfare of the world unless she joins the league of nations. In summoning that conference America took the initiative in by far the greatest work for the welfare of the world that has been seen in our time. We were outside of the league, and we remained outside of it. Yet we did more than the league has ventured to dream of doing, in the very direction in which the league is supposed to be chiefly striving. Mr. Wickersham speaks of the league being "crippled" by the absence of the United States, and being for the same reason "deprived of the opportunity to deal with many of the complex questions of world relationship." But the United States was not "crippled" by being outside the league nor was it thus deprived of the opportunity to deal with some of the most complex and momentous questions of the world relationship. It did at a stroke what the league would not have ventured so much as to suggest doing. Mr. Wickersham falls to explain why our absence from the league should "cripple" it in dealing with purely non-American problems. It certainly has not crippel us in dealing with such world-wide pertinent to us. As between the covenant of the league and the treaty for reduction and limitation of armament, there can be no possible question as to which was and is the more benefit. BURDENS LIFTED PHONE 784-J.

NOTICE In the Superior Court of the County of CANADIAN COOPERATION There is to be an international conference between Canada and the United States on the question of rum-running. The Canadian government, and the British government through which it still speaks, have come at last to see the justice of the Washington viewpoint and express their willingness to do all they can to help this country in its hard task of enforcing the prohibition law. If they can check the illicit operations of their own citizens, it will help a great deal. At the same time the Canadian department of agriculture is starting to co-operate with the United States department of agriculture to control the depredations of the European corn borer. This destructive pest has been operating only four or five years in the states, slowly moving westward, with the frontier now in Ohio. Canada has been fighting it twice as long, and has much to contribute in the way of useful experience. On the other hand, a special method discovered in Canada, of fighting the borer by means of fa parasite gnat, cannot be worked out in that country so well as in this, because the cold winters may kill the parasite. It is a particularly good case for co-operation in exterminating the common enemy instead of each country merely setting up barriers against the other, according to the usual practice. Little by little, nations learn to work together in matters involving their mutual welfare, and in this enlightened effort the two big North American nations are usually found taking a leading part. Who demands his rights seldom gets privileges. BURDENS LIFTED From Anaheim Backs—Relief Proved by Lapse of Time Backache is a heavy burden; Nervousness, dizziness, headache.
