Industrial Land Co.
To Make Assessment
The Industrial Land Co. directors have voted to make an assessment with which to pay taxes, interest and other obligations of the company, says George W. Reid, secretary.
The directors, at a meeting yesterday, also decided against a proposal that the city of Anaheim deed to the Valencia University 20 acres on Placentia avenue and that the Industrial Land Co. deed to the city the 20 acres comprising the industrial tract as compensation to the city. The directors held that such action could not be taken without the consent of the stockholders of the company.
Anaheim is Up to His Expections
R. A. Harlan, former merchant at Calipatria, California, who recently bought the F. A. Mauer furniture store interests at 114 North Los Angeles street, says that Anaheim is living up to his expectations as a live trading center.
"I like Anaheim so well, though I was not acquainted here, that I seized the first satisfactory opportunity I had of entering business here."
Mr. and Mrs. Harlan moved to the city as soon as they purchased the Mauer store interests.

Washington’s Image On New Quarter
Artists of America Will Submit Designs to U. S. Treasurer for Silver Coin
(Correspondence to The Gazette)
Washington, D. C.—Artists who have a talent for designing will soon have opportunity opened to them to gain lasting fame, for the U. S. Treasury is going to invite them to submit ideas for a new silver quarter. It is to take the place of the present 25-cent piece and is to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the birth of George Washington. It is to bear his profile likeness as shown by the Houdon bust of the Father of His Country which is now seen at Mount Vernon.
First Washington Coin
The new quarter will be the first United States coin of regular issue to bear the image of Washington and it was authorized by Congress just before the recent adjournment.
The portrait of the first President was used on a few coins made in 1783, but they were not issued or approved by the Government. The approval might have been given but for Washington's modesty, which doubtless made him feel that such honors were not for the living.
The first commemorative coin issued by the U. S. Treasury was the Columbian half dollar, made in 1892 with the bust of Columbus on it, a tribute to the discoverer of America. The only commemorative quarter was issued the same year, bearing the image of Queen Isabella of Spain, who financed the Columbus expedition.
Lincoln Penny in 1909
The only coin or regular issue in the history of the United States up to the present time and bearing an image of the President is the Lincoln penny, which was minted in 1909 during the celebration of the Civil War President's difficult coin to manufacture, sign is too elaborate for the small face, and the coin wears badly eral circulation.
The first quarters were co1793, the year following the act greess establishing the mint. Since time, $161,483,091 have been pined in twenty-five cent pieces. The issue of this coin in recent years cates that its popularity is inc.

Southern Cities in Metropolitan Dist.
Laborers from Towns to be Employed On the Great Acqueduct
With the official admission of Fullerton and Long Beach to the Metropolitan Water district, last Friday, there are now ten Southern California cities in district which will be supplied with water through the acqueduct which to tap the Colorado river. Fullerton and Long Beach had previous to their admission voted to join the district. In addition to these to cities, the others on the list are Anaheim, Santa Ana, San Bernardino, Colton, Pasadena, Glendale, Beverley Hills and Santa Monica.
New Members on Board
Rowland M. Reid, city attorney of Long Beach, and Walter Humphreys, a Fullerton business man, will represent the two cities on the Metropolitan Water Board.
At Friday's meeting of the board, it was announced that a policy of employing laborers from towns in the district, both in engineering and other work, will be followed and that this policy will be adhered to throughout the construction of the big acqueduct.
The directors of the Metropolitan board will in May take a trip over the entire route of the acqueduct, which is to tap the river at Parker. A road following the route has been completed.
Preparations of a talking picture explaining the great project are now being made, the picture to be shown in cities represented in the district.
Pictures Coming to Fox Anaheim
The Paramount screen version of Emerson Hough's historic story, "The Conquering Horde," is the feature attraction at the Fox Anaheim theater. Friday and Saturday.

Saturday performances of "The Conquering Horde" at the Fox Anaheim will run continuously from 1:15 to 11 P.M.

In the supporting cast are William Farnum, Maureen O'Sullivan, Myrna Loy by the U.S. Treasury was the Columbian half dollar, made in 1892 with the bust of Columbus on it, a tribute to the discoverer of America. The only commemorative quarter was issued the same year, bearing the image of Queen Isabella of Spain, who financed the Columbus expedition.
Lincoln Penny in 1909
The only coin or regular issue in the history of the United States up to the present time and bearing an image of the President is the Lincoln penny, which was minted in 1909 during the celebration of the Civil War President's 100th birth year.
One reason for selecting the quarter dollar to bear Washington's image is the popularity of this coin. Treasurer Mellon says other reasons are the quarter dollar now in circulation is a keen interest in the mint, and quently visited it to supervise sonally some of the work carried there. Many of his messages gross contain reference to the which show his solicitation for stitution. It has been said thatington gave some of his private of silverware to produce half because those small coins were mand among the poorer people mint was unable to procure enough white metal to supply them. The female head which appear some of these pieces was supposed to represent Martha Winton for she presumably sat artist who created the design.
