REORGANIZATION OF JOINT WATER COMMITTEE CHANGE IN CITY COUNCILMEN MAKE SUCH STEP NECESSARY G. J. Stock, E. H. Metcalf and E. E. Knippe, New Members of Committees—Engineer Mulholland of Los Angeles, Will Assist in Developing a Joint Water System for Orange County Cities—Placentia Connects With the Joint Sewer. Co-operation of the cities of Santa Ana, Orange, Anaheim and Fullerton in a big water development program was gotten under way, following appointment of a new committee on water, made at the reorganization meeting of the councils of the four municipalities. Reorganization was made necessary by election to the boards at Orange, of Placentia. W. W. Krick, chairman of the board of the Placentia sanitary district, which recently voted $85,000 for purchasing ownership in the line and for building its main line to a connection with Fullerton line, announced that the district had estimated that it would require 3 per cent of the capacity of the main joint outfall. Wayne McCollum, engineer for Placentia, and the engineers of the four cities will confer and determine the proposition of the capacity of the other lines that will be required by Placentia, and estimate the proportionate cost to the district. The capacity of the sewer line already had been proportioned to the four cities and it will be necessary for an adjustment of the proportions. "It is quite evident that we did not build our main sewer large enough, although we thought it was large enough to take care of the sewage of the world." commented Bishop, during the discussion of Placentia's participation in the sewer program. It is estimated that it will cost Placentia $35,000 for its proportionaete ownership in the line and $30,000 for building four miles of main line to a connection with Fullerton outfall. Installations within the district, is said, would be done under an assessment district plan. Orange County became a participant in the joint sewer operations when the application of E. W. Slabaugh, County Co-operation of the cities of Santa Ana, Orange, Anaheim and Fullerton in a big water development program was gotten under way, following appointment of a new committee on water, made at the reorganization meeting of the councils of the four municipalities. Reorganization was made necessary by election to the boards at Orange, Anaheim and Fullerton of new men. Members of the old boards that were defeated were on the water committee and vacancies for Orange and Anaheim were filled by appointment of G. J. Stock of Anaheim and L. A. Stevenson of Orange. C. H. Chapman is the Santa Ana member. Fullerton never appointed a representative on the committee and in the absence of Harry Crooke, chairman of the Fullerton council, appointment of a member was deferred to the next meeting of that council. S. H. Finley, member of the board of supervisors, also is a member of the water committee. J. W. Tubbs, mayor of Santa Ana, who was elected chairman of the joint outfall sewer board, explained that some months ago the council decided to cooperate in investigations to determine whether a dependable water supply could be developed at some point that would make gravity water available to all of the communities. Finley, who is chairman of the water committee, Tubbs said, had discussed with William Mulholland, water engineer of Los Angeles, plans for the work, and that is was proposed to secure the services of Mulholland in an advisory capacity. Consideration of the water project, it was said, had been dropped a few months ago because of the probability of changes being made in the personnel of three of the councils. Completing reorganization of the board by electing W. J. Carmichael of Fullerton, as secretary, succeeding Tubbs, the joint sewer board took up discussion of matters pertaining to the sewer line building and operations. The present situation in completion of the outfall at the ocean end of the line was presented by W. G. Knox, city engineer of Santa Ana, who is in charge of the work. Knox predicted completion within forty days. Clyde Bishop, attorney for the joint organization, presented a condition existing in the matter of rights of way for the joint line. Owners of some world, commented Bishop, during the discussion of Placentia's participation in the sewer program. It is estimated that it will cost Placentia $35,000 for its proportionate ownership in the line and $30,000 for building four miles of main line to a connection with Fullerton outfall. Installations within the district, is was said, would be done under an assessment district plan. Orange County became a participant in the joint sewer operations when the application of F. W. Slabaugh, County Purchasing Agent, for permission to connect the county hospital with the Orange City line was approved. Detail of the costs, proportion of capacity, and other features will be worked out later. The importance of each city exercising the greatest care in the matter of permitting industrials using the sewer was stressed by the condition that had developed in Anaheim, in operation of the California Citrus Fruit Juice company. Orange pulp had been permitted to run into the sewer, with the result that the large quantity of pulp had seriously interfered with operation of the screening plant. The condition has been remedied and assurance was given that through boiling the pulp would be reduced to a liquid that would readily pass through the screen. Tubbs said that sewage composed af acids would prove destructive to the pipe lines. DAUGHTER HAS VISION OF AUTO ACCIDENT In Horrifying Dream Sees Her Mother Killed An asserted dream, a premonition of her mother's death in a spectacular but ghastly automobile accident followed by the flashing vision of a pale and cold form of a woman in a casket which sent Miss Marie Cummings, 19, trembling with terror into Mrs. Ida M. Cumming's bedroom in the darkness of night, only to find the room empty. This was the startling revelation made by the daughter, herself, and neighbors of Mrs. Cummings, aged 40, a widowed nurse, whose death, a coroner's jury found, followed a crash afflicted Hans Hansworth, her escort, was driving a car "at an excessive speed while his was intoxicated." "I saw mother in a terrible vision," Miss Marie told a reporter. "I remember the vivid scene where she and Mr. Hansworth, driving in his roadster to San Juan Capistrano, approached a tall cliff where the road another promotion glimmering, and a man who listened to the radio invested money that promised larger left to hold the sack pect that snipes what into it.

The present situation in completion of the outfall at the ocean end of the line was presented by W. G. Knox, city engineer of Santa Ana, who is in charge of the work. Knox predicted completion within forty days. Clyde Bishop, attorney for the joint organization, presented a condition existing in the matter of rights of way for the joint line. Owners of some properties along the right of way so far had failed to give deeds for the land necessary. A committee was appointed to meet with Bishop for consideration of certain features, it being the intention of Bishop to call the delinquent owners into a conference with the committee in an attempt to adjust differences that exist. The difference principally is in the value of property required for the right of way. A court appraisal has been made of $500 an acre. Some of the owners think the compensation insufficient. The men appointed to the committee were E. H. Metcalf, Anaheim; L. Stevenson, Orange; R. R. Davis and O. M. Thompson, Orange, and C. H. Chapman, Santa Ana. The attorney for each city also was included in the membership. Santa Ana was appointed as the city that should have charge of the operation of the joint outfall, and a committee was appointed to develop plans for operation, distribution of costs already having been provided in contracts entered into by the four cities. The committeemen are C. H. Chapman, Santa Ana; E. E. Knipe, Anaheim, and L. A. Stevenson, Orange. Fullerton will appoint a representative later. The new joint board reaffirmed action of the old board in approving admission to the sewer building program made by the daughter, horself, and neighbors of Mrs. Cummings, aged 40, a widowed nurse, whose death, a coroner's jury found, followed a crash afflicted Hans Hansworth, her escort, was driving a car "at an excessive speed while his was intoxicated." "I saw mother in a terrible vision," Miss Marie told a reporter. "I remember the vivid scene where she and Mr. Hansworth, driving in his roadster to San Juan Capistrano, approached a tall cliff where the road was narrow—and I distinctly saw the car plunge over the edge, down into space." "Please, please,' she urged, don't make me describe that terrible scene. I can't stand to tell any more." From neighbors of the bereaved daughter, who lives at 1514 Broadway, Santa Ana, it was learned that Miss Marie not only saw the automobile completely demolished in her vision at exactly the same time the accident occurred at Culver's crossing, at 3 P.M. Sunday, but the dream also pictured the body of the mother in a caset. Trembling with fear and horror, the girl awakened from the vivid dream of her mother's tragic death, it was disclosed. Terror stricken, the girl staggered to her mother's bedroom, it was learned, to assure herself of her mother's safety. The bed was empty. Rousing her 18-year-old brother, Thomas, the two went to the home of an aunt here and told the story of the dream and disappearance of their mother. A search was begun which eventually led to the Santa Ana Valley hospital where the woman died at 4 P.M. Monday, she never having regained consciousness. If you must go "up in the air," try radio.

ANAHEIM ORANGES TO CHINA The Anaheim Citrus Fruit Association sent two hundred boxes of its "Sunkist, Mother Colony" brand of oranges to Shanghai, China, Tuesday. The association is expecting to ship forty cars of oranges this week thru its west house, where it put on a night crew Monday evening, which crew will work in the fine, new, and one of the most up-to-date packing houses in California, located just east of the Santa Fe depot on East Center Street. This house will be in operation as soon as the machinery is installed which will be about June 9th, or possibly sooner. This associatlaon has signed up practically all of the fruit it will be able to handle to an advantage this season, and will not accept any more new members after June 1st, excepting in the case of a new owner of a grove, who has had no opportunity to affiliate with that association. K. K. VISITS CHURCH They walked right in and turned PACKING HOUSE LEASED FOR FACTORY ORANGE JUICE TO BE MANUFACTURED IN BUILDING ON SANTA ANA STREET Plant Expects to Turn Out a Thousand Gallons a Day, and Will Find a Ready Market—Only the Under-sized Oranges will be Used. Thus Removing Them from the Market—Ninety-Six Cars Shipped from this City Last Week. The old packing house of the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Association on Santa Ana Street, has been leased to the Anaheim Valencia Growers' Association, which will use it as a factory for the manufacture of orange juice. There is a growing demand for orange juice, as it is now recognized as a valuable article of food in addition to its popularity as a palatable hot weather beverage. Another promotion scheme has gone glimmering, and a number of persons who listened to the voice of a temper and invested money in an enterprise that promised large dividends, are left to hold the sack with small prospect that snipes will ever be driven into it. John Saxton Porter, president, and E. A. Lawson, vice president, promoters of the Dixie chain of service stations, one of which was being built on South Los Angeles street in this city, are diligently sought by the police on a charge of defrauding investors out of $100,000. Those gentlemen disappeared last week, it is alleged, taking with them all the funds collected from their stock sales, and leaving a completed station at Orange, and uncompleted ones at Anaheim and Olive. Investigations recently instituted by the state corporation department upon the filing of a complaint by Hamilton Lawrence, 613 E. Flower Street, Santa Ana, culminated Thursday in a decision to prosecute the promoters. The decision was reached following a conference between Chief Deputy District Attorney, C. N. Mozley and Russel Keach and Edwin B. Cassidy, investigators from the corporation department, who laid the results of their investigation before the Orange County officials. As a result, Lawrence, who is said to have invested $1000 in the service station chain, swore to a criminal complaint. Other investors in the scheme were named as L. E. Miller, 118 W. Broadway, Anaheim, owner of the site on which one of the service stations was being erected; J. H. Wente, 151 N. Pine Street, Orange; W. C. Matthels, 195 N. Shaffer Street, Orange, and C. E. Werrick, 4935 Fifth Avenue, Los Angeles. Leslie Graham, manager of the Anaheim station, is also supposed to have disappeared. Keach and Cassidy searched his apartments but found nothing of importance except a list of names of persons presumed to be investors. Porter, the head of the enterprise, was operating under a permit from the state corporation commissioner, authorizing him to sell $250,000 worth of stock. It is believed he sold stock to the amount of $100,000. It is stated that all persons investing sums of $500 or more were promised jobs, managers of stations to receive $200 a month assisting managers or possibly sooner. This association has signed up practically all of the fruit it will be able to handle to an advantage this season, and will not accept any more new members after June 1st, excepting in the case of a new owner of a grove, who has had no opportunity to affiliate with that association. K. K. VISITS CHURCH They walked right in and turned around and walked right out again, did that hooded delegation that visited a local church Sunday night, says the Brea Progress. Appearing on the floor, unnoticed by anyone as though they had developed upon the spot from the atoms in the air, eight robed and hooded strangers of the order of the Ku Klux Klan surprised the preacher and audience of the local Baptist Church in Craig hall Sunday night during the song service when they marched up one aisle and down the other without speaking a word, to anyone. These silent visitors left nothing in their wake that would enlighten the audience as to the purpose of their call, but Rev. Harry Tratt, pastor of the congregation, found himself richer by $25 as they had left a check for that amount, which bore the signature of an Anaheim merchant. This was evidence, perhaps, of the orders appreciation of a Klan lecture delivered by Rev. Tratt the Sunday before. PACIFIC ELECTRIC CAR KILLS TWO AUTOISTS Car Struck by Electric Train at Crossing North of 'Fullerton Two men in an auto passing through this city at ten o'clock, Sunday evening, were lying dead by the side of the road half an hour later. They were James McGuffin and Elwood Baldwin, both of Whittier, and were on their way home from a Moose trot at Santa Ana. Their car was only one of many in line which crossed the Pacific Electric track between Fullerton and La Habra. Just as the McGuffin machine reached the track a P. E. car, traveling at a terrific rate of speed, loomed into view, so close that it was impossible for the motorists to escape. The auto was truck broadside and hurled a distance of nearly 200 feet. Baldwin was thrown to one side, striking a telephone pole with such force that he died within a few minutes. City Last Week. The old packing house of the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Association on Santa Ana Street, has been leased to the Anaheim Valencia Growers' Association, which will use it as a factory for the manufacture of orange juice. There is a growing demand for orange juice, as it is now recognized as a valuable article of food in addition to its popularity as a palatable hot weather beverage. William Webster, one of the owners and managers of the concern states that he expects to see a production of at least a thousand gallons a day by the plant and there will be a ready market for it, as the demand is increasing every day, and will continue to increase as it becomes better known. In addition to putting a product on the market that is appreciated and is profitable, the plant will also benefit the growers as the undersized fruit will be used in manufacturing the juice. This will remove from the market the small fruit which interferes with the sale of full-sized oranges on the eastern market. The San Dimas plant of the Bi-Products Company, formerly the Crawford Marmalade factory of Anaheim, is able to handle only a small portion of the culls and undersized fruit, consequently the new industry will be of great benefit to the growers. Charles Eygabroad, director of the California Fruit Growers' Exchange and of the Anaheim Citrus Fruit Association, declared that extraction of juice was the one immediate and quick solution of the small size problem. Eygabroad asserted that removal of the small sizes from the market would kill two birds with one stone, in that large sizes would not have competition to spoil prices and freight costs would be cut in two. All the houses in Anaheim are now shipping valencias, 96 cars having been sent out last week. This was ten better than the total for the previous week. MILK VS. ORANGE JUICE As a Food for Upbuilding Undernourished Children of North America. Realizing that the health and normal growth of children means much to their value as future citizens, a great deal of effort is being put forth to supply these children who are conditioned from these years.

Fay Passes Away at Her Home Friday. At the ripe age of 83 years Mrs. Sarah J. Fay for nearly a third of a century one of Anaheim's most prominent citizens, died at her home on West Broadway, Friday. She was taken ill a week previous to her death, and owing to her advanced age was unable to overcome the illness. Mrs. Fay was the widow of W. J. Fay who died 25 years ago. They came to Anaheim from Colorado 32 years ago, and Mr. Fay immediately took a prominent part in the community's affairs. He was president of the Anaheim Union Water Company at the time of his death, and that corporation owes much of its success to their wise administration. Mrs. Fay leaves four daughters and two sons. They are Mrs. Jane McKinley and Misses Alexandra and Theresa Fay of this city, and Mrs. C. F. Barker of San Diego. The sons are Charles J. and James A. Fay, both of this city. She also leaves a number of grand children. Funeral services were held at Backs, Their car was only one of many in line which crossed the Pacific Electric track between Fullerton and La Habra. Just as the McGuffin machine reached the track a P. E. car, traveling at a terrific rate of speed, loomed into view, so close that it was impossible for the motorists to escape. The auto was truck broadside and hurled a distance of nearly 200 feet. Baldwin was thrown to one side, striking a telephone pole with such force that he died within a few minutes. McGuffin fell on the rails and his body was ground to pieces. Brother Moose accompanying them in other cars phoned to the Seale undertaking parlors in Fullerton, and an ambulance was sent for the bodies. An inquest was held at the Seale parlors Tuesday. Both men were married, Baldwin leaving a wife and six children. McGuffin's wife survives him. BONDS CARRY Considering the importance of the question involved a very light vote was polled at the election Tuesday to decide the proposed issue of $110,000 in bonds for municipal improvements. Only 425 votes were cast, 288 of them being in favor of the bonds, and 137 against. As a two-to-one vote was necessary to carry this gave a majority of seven in favor of the issue. One of the improvements to be paid for out of this fund is the sinking of another well for the purpose of adding to our water supply. The constantly growing demand for more water makes this necessary. The total bonded indebtedness of the city is now $741,112.50. After the new issue is sold the city will be bonded to the extent of $851,112.50, but this is being gradually reduced under the present assessment. previous week. MILK VS. ORANGE JUICE As a Food for Upbuilding Undernourished Children of North America. Realizing that the health and normal growth of children means much to their value as future citizens, a great deal of effort is being put forth to supply these children who are under-fed with a glass of milk each day during school hours; especially those children whose parents are unable to afford milk for them at home, writes H. E. Beckwith in Citrus Leaves. There is no doubt that the normal development of a child's physique and his resistance to the attacks of disease depend, to a large extent, upon a same diet. The other main conditions which are a common cause for ill health are bad teeth and tonsils. These two conditions should always be kept in mind when dealing with under-nourished cases. With good teeth, clean tonsils and a fair diet very few children will have any trouble. Pasteurizing of milk destroys much of its value as a food and, further, a mid-morning cup of milk frequently destroys a child's appetite for the regular mid-day meal; so much so that even with the extra glass of milk, the total food taken amounts to less in the end. Oranges possess a large vitamine content. In comparison with milk, oranges possess a much higher anti-scorbutic vitamine, while they have at the same time as much water soluble B., and about as much vitamine A. Another point of much significance is the fact that the vitamines of oranges are not affected to any great extent by a heating process. Furthermore, HOUSE FOR CRY BE MANU-ADDING ON SCREET Out a Thouand Will Find by the Underthe Market—used from this of the Anasociation on been leased to rowers' Assoas a factory orange juice. mand for orw recognized food in addia palatable an orange, instead of satiating one's appetite if taken mid-forenoon, acts as a stimulant to the appetite. Recently Dr. Chaney has demonstrated the above deductions to a degree that cannot be questioned. We will attenmpt to outline his report of a test which was conducted with a number of mainnourished school children. The pupils were arranged in groups and the results were largely based on under-nourished children who had good teeth and tonsils, so that these factors were eliminated. Also, the home diet was not interefered with, except to ascertain what the diet was, in order to check the results. Some groups were given milk; some oranges; some orangeade; and some were given two large graham crackers along with the above. Measurements and weights were recorded frequently and notation was made of any improvement in the child's general condition. The following data was gathered from these tests: The group receiving oranges showed the greatest gain. A large number of this group was receiving milk at home, and the feeding of a mid-morning orange simply supplemented the feeding at home. It was also noticed generally that the orange did act as a stimulant to the appetite and therefore it was the direct cause of a greater food intake.

A large number of this group was receiving milk at home, and the feeding of a mid-morning orange simply supplemented the feeding at home. It was also noticed generally that the orange did act as a stimulant to the appetite and therefore it was the direct cause of a greater food intake. The group receiving orangeade likewise showed a greater gain than those receiving milk. The gain in weight was not so marked as with the group receiving fresh oranges, but it was adequate to prove that where fresh oranges are not obtainable, then the orangeade should be used. The group receiving oranges and milk did not show the gain shown by those receiving oranges alone. Also, the group receiving crackers did not show any additional benefits over those groups receiving the same with the exception of two crackers. With the above facts in mind, it would seem that we who are orange growers should see to it that our children have plenty of oranges to eat, and if they become hungry at school, we should see that they have an orange to carry for their recess or mid-morning lunch. If we will do this in this orange country, the movement will soon spread over the entire country and the health of the children, I believe, will be just that much better. REV. C. B. HATCH DEAD Dr. C. B. Hatch, formerly pastor of the Presbyterian church of Anaheim, died at the White Memorial in Los Angeles Monday. Heart disease was the cause of his death. Dr. Hatch was 76 years of age, and had been in the ministry for fifty years. For several years he was pastor of the Presbyterian church here, and because of his kindly disposition and his democratic ways, endeared himself to all the people who came in contact with him. Several years ago, while a resident here, the University of Pittsburgh notified him that he had been listed for the degree of Doctor of Divinity, which would be conferred upon him at the next annual commencement, provided he was present at the exercises. He went east and received the degree. Dr. Hatch came to Los Angeles nearly twenty years ago, and for a condition. No doubt there is much profit in the manufacture and sale of illicit booze, but the industry has its drawbacks. The minions of the law who are continually poking their noses into other people's affairs, can smell a still from the farthest confines of the county to the court house at Santa Ana, is claimed. At any rate as soon as an enterprising citizen gets a still to working in good order, with promising prospects, the officers swoop down upon him, wreck his establishment, confiscate his stock in trade, and lead him to jail. Many are infant industry has been nipped in the bud in this manner. A raid by Sheriff's officers in the territory west of Anaheim Saturday, resulted in the arrest of two women and two men, all of them charged with either manufacturing moonshine or having moonshine in their possession. John Alvarado, whose home is at the corner of Lincoln Avenue and Garden Grove road, was visited by the officers, who found a still and a ten-gallon supply of moonshine in his possession. Everything was confiscated, including John, who was brought to the Anaheim jail. Mrs. Theda Medina, who resides just north of Cypress, was busily engaged in operating a still in her hen house when the officers appeared and rudely interrupted her work. The hard-hearted deputies refused to listen to her plea to the effect that she was the sole support of a large family of children, and making booze was her only method of keeping the wolf from the door. The officers told her to tell it to the judge, and gave her a free ride to Santa Ana where she would later be given an opportunity of meeting his honor face to face. Six gallons of liquor was taken along. Another victim of the raid was Mrs. Secunda Lemos, whose place of abode is near Hansen station. Mrs. Lemos was also busy manipulating a still and turning out high-powered liquid refreshments when the officers stepped in. The still and a quantity of booze were officially taken possession of and Mrs. Lemos' further activity restrained by her incarceration in the county jail. Francisco Tobar, who resides in the Lemos house, was found to have several bottles of the contraband stuff in his possession, and fearing that he might be tempted to sell it the officers took it away from him and put him under arrest. He was also taken to and his democratic ways, endeared himself to all the people who came in contact with him. Several years ago, while a resident here, the University of Pittsburgh notified him that he had been listed for the degree of Doctor of Divinity, which would be conferred upon him at the next annual commencement, provided he was present at the exercises. He went east and received the degree. Dr. Hatch came to Los Angeles nearly twenty years ago, and for a time was connected with Occidental college. He served several years as pastor of the Presbyterian church here, and on relinquishing the pulpit four years ago, retired from the ministry because of advancing years. He was the father of Mrs. Leo. McGavren of this city, Mrs. Gertrude L. Carney of Los Angeles, and Mrs. Elizabeth E. Merrill, also of Los Angeles. Funeral services were conducted yesterday at the chapel in Forest Lawn cemetery, Los Angeles, Rev. Hugh K. Walker, pastor of the First Presbyterian church, officiating, assisted by Rev. Pritchard. WRESTLING MATCH The sporting fraternity will have an opportunity of witnessing two interesting wrestling matches at the Fairyland theatre Tuesday evening. The main bout is between two men of national fame—Orlando Miller and John Hackenschmidt. This will be an interesting struggle, as both men are in the foremost ranks as mat artists. Ralph Goodale of Anaheim, and Brute Barnes of Redondo Beach, will meet on the mat and strive for local honors. The matches are being promoted by Mike Horwitz. ORANGE SHOW CALLED OFF The 1924 California Valencia Orange Show has been called off. This is the result of the hoof and mouth disease, introduced into California by the dumping of refuse on the shore of San Francisco bay by a ship from Manila. Directors of the orange show, members of the Chamber of Commerce, city trustees, managers of the packing houses, and members of the merchants' association met at the city hall Monday night, and after discussing the matter from all sides reached the conclusion that it would be unwise to attempt to put on the show so late in the season. The proposition to hold the show in connection with the pure food exhibition in Los Angeles did not meet with approval. The packing houses managers announced that they and all their employees would be overwhelmed with work for some months to come, and would be unable to devote much time to their displays. It was finally decided to call it off, and all agreed to work for a greater show next May. The next time they bury John Barleycorn they'll do it face down.
