Next week is Forestry Week, and all the Lions clubs in Orange county are preparing special programs for their meetings boosting the forestry movement. Thieves crawled through a window of the apartment of Mr. and Mrs. C. Michael, at 715 North Lemon street, Saturday night and carried away clothing to the value of $400. Mr. and Mrs. Michael were not at home at the time. A lone bandit held up a Standard Oil station at Fullerton Saturday night. He locked the manager in a closet, then rifled the cash register of $38, making his getaway as a car stopped at the station for gas. The Star Whist Club held its monthly meeting at Masonic hall, Friday afternoon, Mrs. H. P. Campbell and Mrs. W. H. Houts being the hostesses. First prize was won by Mrs. Asa Squier, second by Mrs. L. Dahlman, third by Mrs. Eva Boyd and fourth by Mrs. Lee Geiselman. Murdoch Henry spent a day or two at Tijuana last week, attending the races. Mr. Henry is an enthusiastic horseman and some years ago owned a racing stable at Stockton, his string of horses making notable records on the track. H. J. Efker, for many years proprietor of the Anaheim Novelty store, later of Toyland, has deserted Anaheim. Last week he moved his family to Santa Ana, where he owns two novelty stores. He quit business here after the disastrous fire which destroyed the Toyland establishment a year ago. The May Day carnival, which proved such a howling success a year ago, Mr. and Mrs. A. L. Lewis, who have spent the winter at the Angelina hotel, went down to Bay City last week to spend the summer months at their cottage on Bay lane. Mrs. A. V. Vall of Santa Ana entertained the Elite Card Club at the home of her sister, Mrs. Sophia Stock, on North Lemon street, Thursday afternoon. Prizes were won at five hundred by Mrs. William Lake, Mrs. Henry Heying and Mrs. Herman Schindler. The consolation prize was awarded Mrs. John Kellenberger. Billy Knott, who, for several years has been proprietor of one of the most popular meat markets in the city, has sold out. The new owner is R. B. Marsters of Santa Ana. For the past six years Mr. Marsters has conducted a market at Huntington Beach, and has had a thorough experience in the business. He took charge Monday morning, and is arranging to move his family, consisting of his wife and two children, to Anaheim. Twenty tables were required to accommodate all the players at the Five Hundred party given by the Altar Society of St Boniface church Thursday evening. The hostess committee in charge of the affair was composed of Mrs. C. C. Randall, Mrs. Theodore Roberts, Mrs. L. J. Sheridan and Miss Sophia Rimpau. First prize was won by Miss Zoila Smythe, second by Mrs. Paul Pouplier, and the consolation went to Miss Mary Hund. The gentleman's first prize was won by J. M. Kluthe, the second by A. L. Erickson, and the consolation by A. Thill. Mrs. Strodthoff entertained the Ladies' Euchre Club on Wednesday afternoon last at the beautiful new home of her daughter, Mrs. Yungbluth, on West Broadway, a delightful H. J. Efker, for many years proprietor of the Anaheim Novelty store, and later of Toyland, has deserted Anaheim. Last week he moved his family to Santa Anna, where he owns two novelty stores. He quit business here after the disastrous fire which destroyed the Toyland establishment a year ago. The May Day carnival, which proved such a howling success a year ago, is to be repeated this year. The Merchants and Manufacturers' Association held a meeting at the Elks' clubhouse Tuesday evening to discuss plans. The first carnival, held a year ago, was a great success, and it was agreed at that time to make it an annual event. The Anaheim Elks are figuring on reorganizing their baseball team and again entering the race for the state championship. Four times the Anaheim team has won the peppant in the southern division and contested with the north for the state cup, and three times they won it—one from San Francisco, once from Santa Rosa and once from Sacramento. A plan to form a consulting board of physicians, surgeons and nurses to assist the medical staff of the Orange county hospital was approved at a meeting last week at the county hospital of representatives of the physicians, nurses and county health officials. The plan was referred to their respective organizations for further discussion before it is put into practice. MARSTER'S MEAT MARKET Item in advertisement on page 8 should read: Compound and Shortening, limit 2 lbs. to a customer, 2 lbs. for 25c. Mrs. Strodthoff entertained the Ladies' Euchre Club on Wednesday afternoon last at the beautiful new home of her daughter, Mrs. Yungbluth, on West Broadway. A delightful afternoon was spent in playing euchre, at which very high scores were won by the players, the highest score being 101 and the lowest 45. The first prize was won by Mrs. Sandilands, the second by Mrs. Joe Carroll and the consolation by Mrs. A. Rimpau. A dainty two course luncheon was served after the game by the hostesses. Mrs. Wagner will entertain the club at the next meeting on the second Thursday in May. Mrs. Nellie E. Terry attended the regular meeting of the Los Angeles Republican Study Club, of which she is a member, at their clubhouse in Los Angeles last week. The principal speaker of the afternoon was Mrs. Edith Wallop Swartz, who is in charge charge of training of primary teachers at University of California Southern Branch. Mrs. Swartz is a former Anaheimer, having spent her school days in this city. She is a sister of William Wallop and J. W. Wallop. Another interesting speaker was Myra Nye, who spoke on the conservation of the redwoods. The club decided to purchase a tree in Monumental Park for women in Humboldt county and name it for Florence Collins Porter, who is president emeritus of the club. Mrs. H. Josephine Wynne is president of the Los Angeles Study Club and was present at the formation of the Anaheim Republican Study Club, of which Mrs. Terry is president. Sophia Rimpau. First prize was won by Miss Zoila Smythe, second by Mrs. Paul Pouplier, and the consolation went to Miss Mary Hund. The gentleman's first prize was won by J. M. Kluthe, the second by A. L.

Store ANAHEIM GAZETTE Mrs. Terry attended the annual convention of the Los Angeles District C. F. W. C., which was held in Santa Barbara, at the Lobero theatre last week, beginning Wednesday and lasting three days. A fine program and several trips to points of interest in and near Santa Barbara made this a most delightful outing. Acceptance by the county supervisors of an offer by the Hartford Accident and Casualty Company, bondsmen for the late Justice G. B. Brown of Anaheim has straightened out the $678 shortage reported in the deceased official's books by the last county grand jury. A salary warrant of $100 due the deceased official, $10.64 on deposit in the bank in his name, and $300 in the form of a fine due his court from O. N. Davis, was balanced against the shortage, leaving a deficit of $267.36. This amount the bonding firm agreed to pay the county if released from all liability. The supervisors accepted the proposal. Forty-one pupils of the Anaheim Conservatory of Music enjoyed an Easter party at the institution Friday night. Games were played by the young people and appetizing refreshments partaken of. Each guest was presented with a nest of Easter eggs. Following are the names of those present: Misses Thelma Stewart, Mabel and Rose Siekken, Rose, Anna and Emma Ricker, Lillie Christiansen, Virginia Knott, Bercille Nelson, Lucinda Dumke, Clare Fisher, Tilla and Willa Bartels, Thelma Daugherty, Margareta Patton, Lorain Miano, Claudina Carlisosa, Margaret Rasmussen, Irene Triplett, Helen Wollenman, Bernardine Reese, Floy Ballou, Pansy Parmenter, Hazel Hussman, Margaret Mosberger, Vivian Held, Edith Boege, Wanlyn and Elsa Wilheit, Lora Schultz, and Willie Klupper, Harry WHY NOT FIRE PREVENTION? In the days of hook and ladder companies and hand buckets to put out fires, little thought was given to fire prevention. How to put the fire out seemed to be the main consideration. The same state of mind existed in regard to contagious diseases, such as the plague, yellow fever, typhoid, diphtheria, the hook worm and malaria. For hundreds of years the only thought seemed to be the possibility of curing persons after the disease gained a foothold, instead of trying to prevent the disease from ever starting. Today the diseases mentioned have been practically eliminated by scientific preventative measures and through educational work advising the public how to control them. So far as fires are concerned, however, our nation has staggered along blindly under its enormous annual fire loss with resulting death toll, seemingly as indifferent of fire prevention measures as it was when the first crude fire lighting apparatus was in use. We simply have not awakened to the act that death and property loss from fire can be eliminated, just as death and property loss resulting from contagious diseases have been eliminated by scientific study and treatment. The National Board of Fire Underwriters and the Underwriters' Laboratories, in Chicago, have been pioneering in the campaign of public education on fire prevention. The seeds they have planted are taking root. Manufacturing concerns see the wisdom of laboratory tests of their products which tend to safeguard the public in their use. Retail establishments see the value of handling scientifically tested products and the buying public is awakening to the advantage of buying products which have been tested as to their fire re- April 23 Mabel and Rose Sleifen, Rose, Ann and Emma Ricker, Lillie Christiansen, Virginia Knott, Bercille Nelson, Lucinda Dumke, Clare Fisher, Tilla and Willa Bartels, Thelma Daugherty, Margareta Patton, Lorain Miano, Claudina Carlosa, Margaret Rasmusen, Irene Triplett, Helen Wollenman, Bernardine Reese, Floy Ballon, Pansy Parmenter, Hazel Hussman, Margaret Mosberger, Vivian Held, Edith Boege, Wanlyn and Elsa Wilheit, Lora Schultz, and Willie Klupper, Harry Mitchel, Charles Grunewald, Ernst Drews, John Wollenman, Arthur Cross, Harold McKeehan, W.

ENGLISH, GERMANS AND IRISH COMING IN NOW Citizens of Germany are leading the people of all other nations in filling up their immigration quotas in coming to the United States, according to figures furnished by W. W. Husband, commissioner general of immigration. Up to the time of the report in March, 30,345 Germans had come with 20,984 yet available to come before July 1, the end of the fiscal year. Great Britain and northern Ireland came next with 24,229 immigrants and a possible 9778 more before July 1, while the Irish came third with 18,020 in from the Irish Free State and a balance of 10,547 to come if the quota is filled. The figures show that the great majority of emigrants are now coming from northern Europe. Only 1451 Italians have come in this year, leaving them an available balance in the quota of 2394. Only two Japanese have come in out of a possible 100. Greece has sent but 65, Bulgaria 79, Hungary 264, and Armenia 32. Up until the new immigration law went into effect the bulk of immigration was coming from southern and eastern Europe. A FORD AIRSHIP Edsel B. Ford, with the active cooperation of his father, who builds an automobile about every eight minutes, has built an all-metal monoplane which has just made its initial successful flight. These machines have a wing spread of 60 feet, a fuselage of 48 feet, but their total weight is less than that of a sedan automobile. The capacity, or as it is technically phrased,"useful load," is 2000 pounds. There will be room in these planes for eight or ten passengers, in addition to the seat reserved for the pilot. It is the intention of the "filfver king of the air" to ultimately produce these machines at the low figure made possible by "quantity" production. The first two or three planes being in the nature of experimental machines, were quite costly, as is the case in all initial production of any sort of machinery. The speed of these "Airfords" will be 100 miles an hour for pleasure cruising, and a capacity of 40 to 50 miles an hour in addition to that for war use. It is Mr. Ford's intention that the first commercial lines of his activity will be the transportation of letters, express and valuable freight. The dream of Darius Green and his flying machine fell far short of what the Fords expect to accomplish. In addition to these airplanes, or rather "Airfords," the Fords are building an all-metal, lighter-than-air machine. The portion containing the gas will torches in Chicago, have been pioneering in the campaign of public education on fire prevention. The seeds they have planted are taking root. Manufacturing concerns see the wisdom of laboratory tests of their products which tend to safeguard the public in their use. Retail establishments see the value of handling scientifically tested products and the buying public is awakening to the advantage of buying products which have been tested as to their fire-resisting or fire preventing qualities. Some day the nation is going to awaken to the fact that it is just as criminally negligent for any person to maintain a fire hazard which can be eliminated as it is for a person with a contagious disease to expose others to the danger of the same malady. It is essential that all co-operation possible should be given to the agencies which are spreading the gospel of fire prevention. A FORD AIRSHIP Edsel B.

In addition to these airplanes, or rather "Airfords," the Fords are building an all-metal, lighter-than-air machine. The portion containing the gas will be made of duralumin, which is 90 per cent aluminum, 4 per cent copper, and a little cobalt. These gas containers will actually weigh less than the silk bags with their interior cells now used in the everyday dirigible. The great advantage of this metal container is that it is non-combustible and practically safe against lightning. The dirigible, which will carry only 100,000 cubic feet of gas as against the 2,000,000 in the Los Angeles, and the 5,000,000 in the latest British dirigible, will have a speed of about 70 miles an hour. It may not be many years before every well-equipped household will have its "Airford" to be used for going in a straight line instead of using Henry's car over curved roads.

Notice is hereby given that Friday, the 8th day of May, 1925, at 10 o'clock a.m., of said day, at the Court room of this Court, Department No. 2, in the City of Santa Ana, County of Orange, State of California, has been appointed as the time and place for hearing the application of Hughie A. Kennedy, praying that a document now on file in this Court, purporting to be the last Will and Testament of the said deceased, be admitted to probate, that Letters Testamentary be issued thereon to Hughie A. Kennedy. Paved roads built five and ten years ago were never intended to stand the commercial use to which they have been subjected. The result is that thousands of miles of highways which would have lasted indefinitely under ordinary automobile and farm traffic are having to be rebuilt. California has a greater problem on its hands from this standpoint than almost any other state because it was one of the pioneers in hard surfacing its highways. In order to save the taxpayers as much money as possible and salvage the greatest amount of old road, the California State Highway Commission has shown its resourcefulness in a method it has developed. It has been found that well compacted old macadam roads or rough and broken pavement make an excellent sub-base to support a surfacing of asphaltic concrete. A rebuilt road of this kind in California is usually 20 feet wide, two inches thick at the center which increases to five inches at the edges. In a recent contract awarded for 2.1 miles of this type of pavement, the cost was $147,620 or $18,224.70 a mile. Pavement of a similar character laid in 1921 upon an old macadam subgrade has proven durable and satisfactory. The saving to the taxpayers by this method of road building runs into hundreds of thousands of dollars. Announcements from the big league baseball managers as to the number of pennants they are going to win this year are singularly remindful of the election predictions made by the various national and state chairmen on September 1.
