Mrs. Walter Rommell of 611 North Delay of 13 May Cost Whole Plan (Continued from page 1) engineers' opinion. Resurfaced, it would last about a quarter of a century. As Engineer Cortelyou said in his letter, published in an adjoining column, the state cannot appropriate money for the street's improvement until the $0-foot requirement is met. This means that unless the varying strips of either five and one-fourth or two and three-fourths feet are deeded to the state, the property owners themselves will have to stand the entire cost of future repairs and replacements. Even though a quarter of a cent gasoline tax money is voted to the cities, this money is spent under state supervision and thus cannot be used. Another factor, directly affecting the value of the property is involved. Highway officials in recent years have noted a distinct trend to the better paved Palm street, thence across Broadway to Los Angeles, and on south. Since Palm now is paved to the city boundaries, and projected to join the state highway, there is some concern in local quarters lest the state highway department decide to open up Palm, making it the state highway. This would throw most of the traffic over that thoroughfare, and would lessen materially the value of North Los Angeles street property. By resolution of the city council, in which it has the concurrence of business men and property owners along its entire length, and by stipulation of the highway commission, parallel parking will be enforced as soon as the projected improvement is completed. Secretary George Reid of the chamber of commerce, who has devoted many weeks of consistent work in promoting the project, is high in his commendation of Highway Commissioner Phil A. Stanton and State Engineer Cortelyou: "Mr. Stanton, because of his interest in Anaheim and his intimate knowledge of the need for the North Los Angeles street improvement, came to its aid just when the going looked darkest." Mr. Reid said: "At one time the state was on the verge of withdrawing all funeral services were held Wednesday afternoon from St. Boniface Catholic church of Frank Razotto, 74, early resident of this community, who died at his home on Western avenue Sunday evening. Pallbearers were Carl Pressell, Jerry Cole, Henry Husman, J. W. Sackett, George Flower and James D. Johnson. Burial was at the Holy Cross cemetery. Mr. Razotto was a native of Italy, coming to the United States 61 years ago. He lived in Los Angeles for several years before, coming to Anaheim 53 years ago. He made his home on the property where his home was at his death. In his early days in this community he herded sheep, later entering the winery business and about 15 years ago took up ranching. Survivors are: the widow, Mrs. Florence Razotto; a son, Ben of Riverside; and a daughter and son, Josephine and Angell (Tony) Razotto, living at home. Women Ask Prove Colorado Water A resolution urging that a thorough scientific, and clinical investigation of the quality of Colorado River water, both as to its effect on those who consume it and on the soils that will be irrigated, was unanimously adopted at a meeting of prominent club women of Los Angeles, Long Beach, and Pasadena, in Los Angeles recently. The resolution requests that the study of the water be made by some disinterested agency or combination of agencies, free from any political bias or local prejudice, and qualified through experience and training. It urges that the United States public health service take the lead in the investigation and that expenses be defrayed by the Metropolitan water district. Mrs. Mildren Allen of Anaheim, district deputy president of the Rebekah assembly, officiated at installation of officers at Orange Monday evening. Her staff, including Mrs. Eva Scott, deputy marshall; Miss Elizabeth Mang, deputy warden; Mrs. Fannie Webb and Mrs. Charlotte Hodges, deputy secretaries; Mrs. Mabelle Spencer, deputy treasurer; and Miss Hannah Horwitz, deputy chaplain, assisted.

Mrs. Dave Beat and Earl Fulfer are delighted this week to have their brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. J. D. Holbrook and sister, Miss Lucille Fulfer, of Wichita Falls, Texas, as guests.

Van Dyke of 210 South Olive street at the city park Tuesday evening to celebrate the couple's 32nd wedding anniversary. Nominating committee of the American Legion Auxiliary, which met Monday afternoon in its local halls, is still working on a candidate for president. Secretary George Reid of the chamber of commerce, who has devoted many weeks of consistent work in promoting the project, is high in his commendation of Highway Commissioner Phil A. Stanton and State Engineer Cortelyou. "Mr. Stanton, because of his interest in Anaheim and his intimate knowledge of the need for the North Los Angeles street improvement, came to its aid just when the going looked darkest," Mr. Reid said. "At one time the state was on the verge of withdrawing all money appropriated for the project and diverting it elsewhere. I also wish the people of Anaheim knew how great an interest Mr. Cortelyou has taken in the proposed improvement. His consideration of the project, and Mr. Stanton's earnest endeavors in our behalf have aided greatly in carrying it along to the present stage. Now, if the property owners themselves do not unanimously sign, then the work of these fine men will have been wasted." Robert L. Royalty, North Lakes-street property holder who gave the project a thorough study and interviewed state officials in regards to it, states: "I firmly believe that the project as at present planned will save the property owners many thousands of dollars Granting title to a small strip of land will not damage their property, especially because alteration of sidewalks curbs, trees, or buildings on account of improvements will be next to impossible for many years to come. I was somewhat skeptical that the proposed improvement would not cost me money, but now I am convinced that it will save me a great deal of expense Not only that, but it will keep No. 101 highway traffic going along Los Angeles street, which will maintain values of property along that street This is important. Danger of diversion of traffic to Palm street is greater than most of us realize. These are some of the reasons why I have signed an agreement to deed a strip of my property to the state; I am sure that every property owner, knowing these facts, would feel the same way about it." New Definition of Success Is Given Rabbi Leibert tells Lions Club Members That Enthusiasm Plays Part in Happiness "Successful living is that which makes life worth living; it is the spiritual contentment which is synonymous with true happiness." Rabbi Julius A. Leibert, author of "Facing the Sun," told members of the Anaheim Lions club at the regular meeting Friday noon.

Walker of the First Presbyterian church Sunday evening at the union church services held in the open-air theatre of the city park chose for his subject "Humanities' Zero Hour," basing his sermon upon John 13, verse 1. Approximately 600 persons attended. Pointing out that like Jesus humanity has its zero hour, he said that in every hour of his life Jesus knew that there would be an hour in which he would suffer for the sake of the world and that he had his time divided so that his final hour came at the appointed time. He traced the origin of the expression "zero hour" which he pointed out, came into use during World War. The "zero hour" was that last moment before the soldier went over the top, that last moment of tension after everything was prepared.

Rabbi Leibert Tells Lions Club Members That Enthusiasm Plays Part in Happiness "Successful living is that which makes life worth living; it is the spiritual contentment which is synonymous with true happiness." Rabbi Julius A. Leibert, author of "Facing the Sun," told members of the Anaheim Lions club at the regular meeting Friday noon. "Without enthusiasm man is but a lump of clay," he said, "having no capacity for enjoyment, no wings to lift him above the sordid and no power to triumph over death. But with rays of enthusiasm penetrating his heart, he awakens to the thrill and throb of life." "Troubles and cares come because we are looking at shadows instead of the sunshine. By looking forward instead of backward we can lift this burden. Life is bewildering unless you have purpose and aims." "Enthusiasm, purpose and discipline are the three roads to success in life." Program Chairman Frank Tausch introduced Rabbi Leibert, while President Evan Alsip reported on the Lions convention at Santa Barbara. Rev. William Addison Brown also addressed the club, urging that judgeships be made life-time rather than political jobs.

Anaheim Houses 3 Extra "Boarders" Fullerton Sunday night appealed to Anaheim for housing of three prisoners for whom there was no room in the neighbor city's jail as a result of a series of arrests on liquor charges, He traced the origin of the expression "zero hour" which, he pointed out, came into use during the World war. The "zero hour" was that last moment before the soldier went over the top, that last moment of tension after everything was prepared. The young people's choir of 30 voices sang several numbers, Mrs. Walter Ross, soprano, sang "His Eye is on the Sparrow" by Gabriel and F. H. Neiman played a trumpet solo accompanied by William Heger. A quartet number was sung, "Nearer My God to Thee" and the prelude and postlude was played by Miss Eleanor Longworth. Tells How She Lost 15 Lbs. of FAT Rheumatism Gone Too Here is a woman who was rapidly putting on weight and who was troubled with rheumatism too. Read her letter: "I started taking Kruschen Salts because of the good it had done for a friend of mine who had been crippled with rheumatism. At the end of the second bottle I was weighed and find I am now only 148 pounds (original weight 163 lbs.), at which I am so pleased. But I have also felt my rheumatism much less, which has been so troublesome in my knees. I must say I think Kruschen's a splendid weight reducer." (Miss) E. L. P. Overweight and rheumatic poisoning often go together. The six salts in Kruschen assist the internal organs to perform their functions properly—little by little that ugly fat goes slowly yes—but surely. You feel wonderfully healthy, youthful and energetic—more so that ever before in your life! Kruschen Salts is obtainable at all drug stores—a jar lasts four weeks and costs not more than $5c. 3G-2—ADV. Roosevelt Lauds Son of Anaheim President Praises Skill of Lt.-Commander Griffiths, son of B. E. Griffiths B. E. Griffiths of Anaheim, father of Lieutenant Commander Cuthbert A. Griffiths who commanded the destroyer U. S. S. Ellis which was conveyed to guard President Franklin Roosevelt on his recent vacation trip abroad the schooner Amberjack H., is the proudest parent in Orange county. In his possession this week is a copy of a letter written in appreciation by President Franklin Roosevelt, paying tribute to the excellent seamanship of Lt.-Commander Griffiths. The letter addressed to Secretary of the Navy Claude A. Swanson follows: July 6, 1933. The White House, Washington. My Dear Mr. Secretary: During my recent cruise on the Amberjack H, it was necessary to have the U. S. S. Ellis, under command of Lieutenant Commander Cuthbert A. Griffiths, U. S. navy, to come alongside the dock at Welchpool Harbor, Campbello, New Burnswick. The dock is an old one and is very small one affording dock space of only 60 feet. The maneuvering room in the vicinity of the dock is very restricted. Captain Griffiths put his ship which is over 300 feet in length alongside this dock and got away in a manner which excited the admiration of every seaman who witnessed his ship handling. His handling of his ship in going alongside and his getting away from the Indianapolis was done with the same cool efficiency. Will you be good enough to have a copy of this letter filed with the record of Lieutenant Commander Griffiths? Yours faithfully, FRANKLIN D. ROOSEVELT "Truth" is Subject for Lesson-Sermon "Truth" is the subject of the Lesson-Sermon on Sunday in all Christian Science churches, branches of The Mother Church. The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Goston, Mass. The Golden Text is from Psalm 1905: "The Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endures to all generations." The Responsive Reading includes Isaiah's words: "O Lord, thou art my God; I will exalt thee. I will praise thy name; for their last done wonderful things; thy councels of old are faithfulness and truth." One of the Scriptural citations in the Lesson-Sermon presents these verses from the Psalms: "I will praise thee, O Lord, among the people; and I will sing praises unto those among nations. For thy mercy is great above the heavens; and thy truth reaches into the clouds." A passage from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, says of God: "Not materially but spiritually we know Him as divine Mind, as Life, Truth, and Love. We shall obey and adhere in proportion as we apprehend the divine nature and love Him understandingly, worrying no more over the compassibility, but rejoicing in the influence of our God."
