The heedless, thoughless, reckless or drunken driver speeds on over the iron rails without a look to the right or left but the careful driver hesitates and, if necessary, stops to assure himself of the safety of the crossing before venturing across the train tracks. He who hesitates at grade crossings is safe. COMPANY WILL REFUND Customers of the Tustin Water Works at Tustin, Orange County, to the number of 75, will be pleasantly surprised by having $5.00 a piece refunded to them through the efforts of the Railroad Commission. Under the general policy of the Railroad Commission, public utility water companies in this state are required to install service pipes up to the curb lines facing the consumers' property and install meters at the utilities own expense. The Tustin Water Company, through error, has been collecting $5.00 a piece from applicants to cover service connections. Upon the Commission's Informal Complaint Department learning of the practice the company was instructed to refund all amounts collected. The company readily acquiesced, and informed the Commission that it will immediately return all amounts collected, which total approximately $375.00.

Jeffries' victory is a very popular one in Anaheim.

GRADE CROSSINGS Grade crossings of railways and vehicular highways must be eliminated. Immediate substantial relief by the separation of the grades at such crossings is however not to be based.

Wayne Andrews, a minor, will sell, at private sale, to the highest bidder upon the terms and conditions hereinafter mentioned and subject to confirmation of the above named Superior Court on or after the 20th day of June, 1924, at ten o'clock in the forenoon of said day, at the office of Weisel & Stark, Room 2, Golden State National Bank Building, in the City of Anaheim, County of Orange, State of California, all the right, title, interest and estate of the said H Wayne Andrews, in and to all that certain real property situated in the County of Orange, State of California, and particularly described as follows, to wit: An undivided one-half interest in the East twenty-five (25) acres of the Southwest quarter (SW¼) of the Northeast quarter (NE¼) of Section Eight (8), Township Four (4) South Range Ten (10) West S.

NOTICE Pursuait to the written consent of the holders of more than two thirds of the issued capital stock of the Ana- GRADE CROSSINGS Grade crossings of railways and vehicular highways must be eliminated. Immediate substantial relief by the separation of the grades at such crossings is, however, not to be hoped for. The time and money involved are so stupendous as to be almost prohibitive. The elimination of extra hazardous crossings should, of course, proceed by mutual cooperation of the state, the county, the municipality and the railroad as rapidly as finances will permit. In the meantime, we should do all we can to prevent the useless loss of life and suffering that occurs at railroad crossings. During 1923 there were 2,268 fatalities and 6,314 injuries to persons at crossings of the railway and highways in the United States. Of these accidents, 84 per cent involved the use of motor vehicles, 8 per cent occurred to occupants of other vehicles and 8 per cent to pedestrians. Heedless, thoughless, reckless and drunken drivers are responsible for the great majority of the casualties occurring at grade crossings in collisions between automobiles and trains. The old proverb that "the who hesitates is lost" doesn't apply to the motorist on this side of a railroad crossing. The near side of a railroad crossing is the safe side. A moment's hesitation long enough to enable the driver to look in both directions freeway. Collector Goodcell strongly advised taxpayers to protect their interests by filing waivers for the 1918 tax prior to June 15, and to file claims for refund for years 1919 to 1922, if they may be left at the office above named or at the office of the Clerk of the above entitled Court at any time after the first publication of this notice and before making the sale.
