High Wind Shreds Orange Show Tent Study Begins On Grade Grossings New Law to Elimate Then on Both State and County Roads Plans for a study of the grade crossing situation in California that will cover every phase of the subject have been discussed by Colonel Walter E. Garrison, director of the Department of Public Works, and the members of the California Highway Commission. The study is being undertaken in accordance with a bill passed by the recent legislature and signed by Governor Rolph. It will be made cooperatively by the Department of Public Works and the California Railroad Commission. The study will include railroad grade crossings built both upon the state and the county highway systems. Will Gather Data Following the conference meeting of the California Highway Commission, C. H. Purcell, state highway engineer, was instructed to immediately proceed in cooperation with the State Railway Commission to gather data showing the number and location of all railroad grade crossings in California; the approximate railroad and automobile traffic at these points; protective warning designs now installed; the accident record of each of these crossings. With this data, it is believed that a program of grade crossing eliminations can be formulated that will make possible the early removal of all dangerous crossings from all roads in the state, and the eventual removal of all crossings, other possibly than spur tracks in more or less isolated districts. The thorough character of the study that is contemplated is indicated by the fact that its cost is estimated at $50,000. The report will be submitted to the legislature at its session in 1933. Will Know by 1933 Mrs. Grace Thompson Seton, president of the National League of American Penwomen, has just completed a world survey of feminist movements.

It made a total wreck of the "big top," and twisted its steel supports out of shape. While the tent is now being replaced with a new one, the opening of the show on June 4 will not be delayed. A smaller tent which is to shelter another division of the exposition was not damaged. No matter how fast you drive your motor car you can't run away from your conscience. In April there were fewer hens and pullets in American farm flocks than for several years preceding. With this data, it is believed that a program of grade crossing eliminations can be formulated that will make possible the early removal of all dangerous crossings from all roads in the state, and the eventual removal of all crossings, other possibly than spur tracks in more or less isolated districts. The thorough character of the study that is contemplated is indicated by the fact that its cost is estimated at $50,000. The report will be submitted to the legislature at its session in 1933. Will Know by 1933 Earl Lee Kelley, chairman of the California Highway Commission, said: "We are going to know by 1933 just how extensive the grade crossing problem is in California. We know what this problem is in our state highway system, and are making very rapid progress in the elimination of these crossings for the state system. There has not been the careful survey made of crossings on county roads and city streets. "It has been said that the complete elimination of railroad grade crossings in California would cost a billion dollars. Before the next legislature meets, we will know what this cost is, and will not have to guess as it. Moreover, we will know the practical method of proceeding to eliminate them, whether by relocation of railroad or highway, or by building underpass or overpass separation structures. "We will also know how to better the protection of such crossing as can not be immediately eliminated." "I feel that the bill for this study as signed by Governor Rolph constitutes a determined effort to solve the grade crossing problem in California, and marks a long step forward in the Rolph highway program." Tea in Honor of Mrs. Honor Easton The return of Mrs. Honor Easton from a tour of several months in Europe and the Holy Land, was marked by a tea given by Mrs. Henry Adams at her home on North Clementine street, Monday afternoon.

Fearn Radio Shop In New Quarters Fearn Radio Electric Shop, which for several years has been located at 12 East Center street, where larger quarters offer both more space for display of radios and more room for the repair department. "Moving to East Center street has given us some much-needed room. While we are a little further from the center of the city, we have much more room for parking; much more room to display our products and more light." E. E. Fearn stated. "But that isn't altogether the chief benefit. Lower overhead occasioned prince-altered roofs, and other accessibility because of always being assured parking space, will enable us to offer our persons more value per dollar than ever before. This always has been our purpose, and we renew the pledge as we move into larger quarters." Within the display room are the wall, roof tiling, window and doorway of a small Spanish-type residence. The closes off: the office from the display room. Back of the office is the repair department. LOCAL PASTOR TO WED The mutilations of the Rev. Dorothy K.
