Authorizing paving operations to the extent of $71,757, the board of supervisors are preparing contracts with the Griffith company and Steele Finley, covering approximately three miles of highway in the vicinity of Olive and west of Anaheim. The Griffith company was Tuesday awarded the contract for paving Santa Ana canyon boulevard for a distance of one and a fourth miles from Olive north, and Santiago boulevard, for a distance of 3200 feet east from Olive to the junction of Villa Park road with North Tustin street.

In the afternoon the meeting was devoted to the entertainment of the Department officers of the G.A.R. and the national and department officers of the W.R.C. A striking feature of the meeting was the denunciation by Department Commander Grannis in no uncertain terms of the action of the president of the University of California and Standford University, in eliminating from their calendar the observance of Washington's birthday, Memorial day, Armistice day and Labor day. The following resolution was passed by a unanimous vote: Resolved, that the National Department officers of the G.A.R. and department officers of the W.R.C. with the federations of Women's clubs and with the Parent Teachers Associations condemn the action of the presidents of our universities in their efforts to have the observance of Washington's birthday, Memorial day, Armistice day and Labor day, stricken from their calendar and abolished.

Four thousand acres and perhaps more of the Irvine ranch, may soon be added to Orange county's total acreage of citrus cultivation, now recorded at about 40,000 acres, as a result of an irrigation survey now under preparation by Howells & Howells, consulting engineers with headquarters in San Francisco, it was Wednesday reported in local business circles. According to H. R. Howells, it is proposed to secure the necessary flow of water, estimated at 8,000 acre feet, from the water shed located in and around Santiago creek, one of the main branches of the Santa Ana river. This water shed situated in the foothills of the Santa Ana-Elsinore mountains, may be developed to yield still more water it was pointed out. With the aid of a pumping system, the proposed irrigation district may be increased by several thousand acres, it was explained. The engineer was not in position to state which section of the extensive Irvine ranch has been selected for irrigation. A "good town" is any one in which you happen to have made money.
