Nagel and young son, Kenneth, returned on Thursday from a two months visit with friends in Indiana. Mr. Nagel reports the weather cold in the east. He found his relatives in the enjoyment of excellent health. That he was treated well is evidenced by the fact that he gained fifteen pounds on the trip. His son grew three inches as a result of the Hoosier climate.

Beginning next Monday she will play a three days' engagement in Los Angeles. A gasoline motor car arrived over the Southern Pacific on Monday afternoon, following the southbound accommodation train at 3 o'clock.

They are in wealth who have been looking over Southern California home. They are tired of the rigors of the Colorado climate and will henceforth reside with their families in the glorious village of Southern California. The second annual banquet of the chamber of Commerce was held in the Old Fellows hall on Friday evening. The gathering was one of the largest and most representative bodies of citizens of this and neighboring towns ever held in this city. In the exhibit rooms many products of the soil were displayed and made an imposing spectacle. The city band was in attendance and discussed martial music and later headed the throng on the march to the banqueting rooms. Nominations for directors were called for and the following named gentlemen were nominated and duly elected by unanimous vote: W. H. Spake, T. S. Armstrong, E. W. McCollum, J. H. Clabaugh, W. T. Cailor, Chas. Boege, Fritz Yungbluth. The new large and handsome register—a donation to the Chamber of Commerce by Messrs. Padgham and Merritt of Santa Ana—was brought forth and the names of all present were enrolled upon its pages. The march to the banquet hall was made to sweet strains of music. Long tables laden with the weight of good things awaited the sharpened appetites. Toastmaster Melrose in a brief address bade the guests welcome at the festal board and facetiously observed that while all the male attendants had no doubt been sparingly served from the family larder during the day by the frugal helpmeet (such the toastmaster remarked being his experience) it would be well to commence the discussion of the toothsome viands instanter. At the conclusion Toastmaster Melrose presented those responding to the toasts of the evening among them being Prof. Walker, principal of the high school, Rev. Father Dubble, Mr. Kerr, president of the Fullerton Chamber of Commerce, C. F. Grim, P. H. Krick, Wm. Schwenckert, H. Stern, G. A. Edgar of Santa Ana. A very great Capt.

A Los Angeles paper says, that Mrs. Lynill of Anaheim has taken the management of two fine scenes for presentation at the approaching authors carnival. Four Los Angeles police officers and one Deputy Sheriff attempted to capture Moreno, a noted horse thief on Wednesday night. They fired twenty-two shots at him but he escaped unhurt. One of his shots grazed the Deputy Sheriff's thigh. Bets are freely offered that there is not a policeman in Los Angeles that can hit the side of a barn at ten paces. As the result of a sand storm which prevailed on the Colorado desert last week, piling its drifts upon the railroad track, the engine of last Thursday's outgoing train jumped the track at Tortugas, rolling over beside the track. A wrecking train was sent out at once and a temporary track was constructed around the wreck allowing the passage of trains after a delay of twelve hours. The fourth of September next will be the centennial anniversary of the establishment of Los Angeles, it being on that day of the month in the year 1781 that an order was issued by the authorities of the Mission San Gabriel for the laying out of the pueblo. It is proposed to celebrate it by holding a Centenary Art Exhibition, the proceeds to be given to the University of Southern California. In order to increase the interest in the monthly meetings, Anaheim Lodge A. O. U. W. has decided to add a literary feature to their exercises, and debates, readings and music will be the features of each meeting. The program of the succeeding Monday will be published in the Gazette every Saturday for the information of members. The question to be debated on next Monday evening is, "Resolved that a $2000 benefit should not be paid to the heirs of such members of our order who may commit suicide." Affirmative, D. J. Sorenson, negative, Richard Melrose. The managers of the Masquerade Ball to be held on St. Valentines evening take pleasure in announcing that notwithstanding they have issued numerous invitations in addition to those first sent out, yet, they are daily receiving new applications. While they have used every precaution to avoid slighting any by failing to present them with regular invitations, yet they wish it distinctly understood that the apparent oversight in any instance is not intentional and they will gladly make the Amende honorable when called upon to do so. Tickets are now ready, and is advisable that all who contemplate attending should procure them as early as possible. A very good friend of ours who has been in Mexico with Capt. Eads in the capacity of consulting engineer writes to us from New Orleans under date of January 14th enclosing two packages of seeds which he procured in Mexico. One package is labeled “Cherimoya” and the other “Grenadilla.” One paragraph of the accompanying letter says, “By the papers you will have learned of Capt. Eads movements, success, etc, so I'll not enlarge on this.” He went to Washington via St. Louis and Leam to return Expert Watch Repairing 115 East Center St. Phone 2307 Anaheim The BEST Gray Hair Remedy is Home Made To half pint of water add one ounce bayrum, a small box of Barbo Compound and one-fourth ounce of glycerine.

Vogt Chiropractic Health Specialist — Licensed Palmer Graduate — 19 Years' Experience Phone 4223 817 N. Los Angeles Anaheim, Calif. A very good friend of ours who has been in Mexico with Capt. Eads in the capacity of consulting engineer writes to us from New Orleans under date of January 14th enclosing two packages of seeds which he procured in Mexico. One package is labeled "Cherimoya" and the other "Grenadilla." One paragraph of the accompanying letter says, "By the papers you will have learned of Capt. Eads movements, success, etc, so I'll not enlarge on this. He went to Washington via St. Louis, and I am to return to Tampico in order to make a survey of the bar at that place." We can promise our readers at some future time a graphic account of Capt. Eads project, from the practiced pen of our literary and engineering friend, who, by the way, is a brisk traveler. Less than a year ago he was in San Francisco. The next we heard of him he had gone to Rome (Italy). He does not appear to have remained in that ancient city any great length of time, for we hear of him a month or two later as connected with the reportorial staff of a Philadelphia paper. Six weeks ago we received a Mexican paper containing an account of his arrival at the City of Mexico with Capt. Eads, and the latest letter leaves him luxuriating at the St. Charles hotel in New Orleans. A meeting of citizens was held at Kroegers hall on last Saturday evening to discuss matters connected with county division. Judge Bailey presided. Mr. Montgomery read a number of letters which he had received from Mr. Dreyfus in one of which that gentleman stated that his business affairs required attention and that some one should be sent to Sacramento to relieve him. A motion was carried that the meeting choose a representative to relieve Mr. Dreyfus, and Mr. J. M. Guinn was unanimously nominated. That gentleman, however, having expressed some doubt as to his ability to arrange his affairs so that he could absent himself, the meeting chose Richard Melrose as alternate, to represent county division at Sacramento if Mr. Guinn could not go. Mr. Miles, treasurer of the finance committee, read a statement showing the amount of money subscribed, the disbursements and cash on hand. The finance committee was increased to five by the addition of Messrs. Korn and Zeyn after which the meeting adjourned. Mr. Guinn left for Sacramento on Tuesday morning, having with the consent of the trustees engaged Miss Lottie Mobeck of Los Angeles to take charge of his school during his absence. Anaheim, Calif., Jan. 22, 1931 from the accompanying sketch. The small seed-shape figure is given in half actual size. On a piece of cardboard draw a straight line twice as long as the line from point to point of the sketch and measure on either side of this line twice the distance shown in the figure. To make the trimming cut one ofo these melon shapes for each petal. Crease the petals lengthwise through the center an dthen gather along the curved side, through both sides of the petal. Draw up the gathering slightly and arrange the petal on a band of material. Make a second petal in the same way and arrange on the band, lapping slightly over the first petal. Guardian of the Family "My father, who is past 75, shares our bottle of Syrup Pepsin with his little great-granddaughter aged three. And when I feel constipated, with headache and biliousness, I also get my share of Syrup Pepsin. We would as soon think of being without salt and sugar as not to have a bottle of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin in the house." (Name and address will be furnished upon request) Constipation Always a Danger "Always something," says mother. "Billiousness, sour stomach, headache, colds, fevers—you never know when or what." Syrup Pepsin is mother's safeguard. Sweetens stomach, moves bowels; children recover like magic. No wonder mothers everywhere know and trust Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. It is the guardian of the family's health. Sweet, stirrup—children and old people love it. Mild, yet thorough in action. Sudden colds, fevers, headache—conditions responsible for nearly all disease—a dose of Syrup Pepsin and all fear is gone. Once in this home every mother says—"I keep it always on hand." Every druggist sells Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin. For a free trial bottle send name and address to Pepun Syrup Company, Monticello, Illinois Atwater Kent FEARN— The Set With the Golden Voice 113 So.
