Heavy Increase in Gas Consumption Southern Counties Gas Company Makes Big Gains in Year President and General Manager Ferdinand R. Balm of the Southern Counties Gas Company, which distributes gas locally and to more than seventy communities of Southern California, was host last week at his fifteenth annual dinner to more than 1000 directors, officers, guests and employees of the organization. The annual gas company party was held in the banquet room of the Blitmore hotel, Los Angeles, and a number of local gas company representatives were in attendance. At the dinner the history of the Southern Counties Gas Company's activities for the past twelve months were told and plans outlined for the year 1927. The fifteenth annual dinner, according to Mr. Balm, was the largest gathering in the history of his organization. The original banquet was given in 1912 to four executives of the organization, all of these men being present at this meeting. They were Vice-President and Manager F. S. Wade, Secretary W. S. McFarland, General Agent F. H. Bivens, and Chief Engineer M. R. Thompson. It was pointed out that the company added 7500 new consumers during the closing year, bringing the corporation's total number of meters as of December 31, 1926, to 111,945. Gross expenditures during the past year totalled approximately $1,750,000, and officials of the corporation estimated that the 1927 expenditures for betterments and improvements to the system would reach the same figure. One important project now under way is that of extending the company's transmission system south from Newport Beach, a distance of nine miles, to Laguna Beach. This improvement, now under way, will cost $135,000, and will make natural gas service available to the public of Laguna Beach early in February of this year. Several new high pressure gas holders were completed at Santa Ana and Orange during the forepart of last year at a cost of $75,000. More than $161,000 went into new gas mains ahead of paving on various parts of the company's system, Los Angeles recently, motorists of the state lost an earnest and insistent advocate of good roads, sane legislation and safety. For fourteen years prior to 1920, Mr. Baker was president of the Automobile Club of Southern California. During this period the club made an unprecedented growth, becoming the largest in point of membership in the world, which position it still maintains. Mr. Baker was an active, constructive force in bringing California to leadership in its highway system and in number of autos per capita, and devoted himself unselfishly to his community and state during the 50 years of his life in California. "Hear Ye Heavy Traffic Prohibited!" Such might have been the opening sentence of the proclamation issued on August 6, 1622, by King James I. for the avowed purpose of saving the wear and tear on roads. His proclamation ruled that any vehicles of not more than two wheels drawn by not more than five horses were to be allowed on certain roads in England, and all loads were not to exceed 2000 pounds, or one ton, in weight. Today's "Heavy Traffic Prohibited" signs which have been posted on many highways of Southern California call attention to state law or local ordinances which generally place maximum loads allowed at 22,000 pounds on improved highways, and 30,000 pounds on city streets and county roads.

Automobile Notes California has more national parks than any other state in the Union, according to a report just issued by the United States department of Interior. Of the 19 national parks with a total area of 11,710 square miles, California has four having a total of nearly 2000 square miles. Not only is the Golden State fortunate in the number and area of these great national playgrounds but, it is pointed out by the touring bureau of the Automobile Club of Southern California, each of these parks is unique and distinctive. Sequoia, more commonly known as the Big Trees national park, embraces the oldest of living things in the world. Yosemite national park is a valley of world famed beauty, having not only three groves of big trees, but magnificent water falls. The smallest of California parks is General Grant, created chiefly to preserve the General Grant tree, 35 feet in diameter and more than 100 feet in circumference. The only active volcano in the United States is found in Lassen park, in the northern part of the state. Lassen peak, 10,460 feet above sea level, has become an observatory for volcanic action and is an interesting sight when it rumbles and emits smoke. California's four national parks were visited last year by 432,949 persons. Yosemite led all of the 19 national parks with 274,209 visitors. California's national monument, Muir woods, headed the list in number of visitors of any monument in the nation with 97,426 visitors. It is noted in the government report that 1926 was a record year with a total of 2,287,828 visitors in all the national parks and monuments of the country. It is expected that with the growing love of the people for the outdoors and the improved facilities for motoring in comfort, 1927 will establish a new record for visitors. In the death of Fred L. Baker in BUREAU MEMBERSHIP "Rural residents are warned against paying farm bureau dues to strangers who are without proper identification cards," A. M. Stanley, manager of the local farm bureau, stated today. "Last year we learned that a 'city alocker' was posing as a membership solicitor for the farm bureau and possibly collected several memberships, putting the money in his pocket. We were unable to secure any evidences to effect an arrest. In order to avoid such a situation this year, we have issued cards to identify our solicitors this year. These cards are all signed with my recognizable but unreadable signature, and we ask all residents to ask to see the cards when approached for membership by a stranger." The membership drive officially starts January 24, and will continue actively for one week. Solicitation and clean-up work will continue longer as usual.

Executor of the Will of Martha Schoeller, also known as Martha Schaller, Deceased. ELDON W. STARK. Attorney for Executor. GOLD AND SILVER LODES The most notable accomplishment in the gold lode mines during the year was the mining and milling of a very large amount of ore by the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Company in the Juneau district, southeastern Alaska. This company maintained an average production throughout the year in excess of 10,000 tons a day, and during one month averaged more than 12,000 tons a day. Work on the addition to the company's mill has been practically completed, and underground development and prospecting was actively carried on in one of the adjacent properties, whose ore is handled by this company, as well as in the company's own mine, so as to increase the tenor of the ore milled. When asked what she thinks of the flapper, Lady Astor replied: "I don't quite know what the flapper is." Neither do the rest of us, lady.
