LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Balbon Island, Cal., Oct. 16th, 1933. Mr. Henry Kuchel, Editor Anaheim Gazette. Dear Mr. Kuchel; While in town the other day I noticed another one of the early brick buildings on Lemon Street being demolished, and it looks as if there will not be one left, so one could say this or that building was built 50, 60, or 75 years ago. My my, how time will change all things, and time sure flies, I feel as tho it can't be more than 25 or 30 years when I first came to Anaheim, but come to figuring it out, I find it will be 65 years the 23rd of Oct., 1868, that I got off a six mule stage coach driven by General Phineas Banning. On the coach was by brother, the late Alexander N. Henry, his wife, his two sons, James and John M. Henry, Samuel Hill, and his brother, the late William Hill, of Garden Grove, and another party I can't remember. We got off at the Planters Hotel corner of Los Angeles and Center street and were greeted by that joyful host, the late Pohn Fischer. My brother's wife was the last in the coach, and when Mr. Fischer said: "My dear lady, can I assist you to get out?" she thanked him and said, "no, I'll wait till we get to Anaheim." His reply was this is Anaheim. She said, "I thought Anaheim was a big town," got out and never left but once when she and her husband took a trip some 20 years ago to Scotland, but she lived to see Anaheim grow into a more beautiful city than when she first saw it. But, beautiful city as it is with the finest park in the county, I sure loved the old town as it was when I first came to it, for there was something fascinating about it and its people that always made a stronger welcome which one will always remember. I have a good cause to express myself thus for it was there I made my first stake, saved what I made bought land there, sold it for six times what it cost me bought again and through wise investments still own good property there that keeps me on "easy street" as the saying goes. I will always feel thankful that I came to Anaheim when I did for several seasons. It was there I met and married my first beloved wife, Mary Williams, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Williams, of Buena Park that death took from me in 1892. And in Anaheim I first met my present wife, Maude, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. P. Chilecoat of Paularino, eight years ago, who is also a loveable partner. So why should I not think well of Anaheim? No matter how well it does in Legion's Plans, Plans for the Legion memorial building, one of two projects contained in Anaheim's request for federal aid under the public works program of the NRA this week were receiving minor changes to make them conform to state earthquake building specifications, following suggestions made Monday when an inspector from the Los Angeles office of E. P. Scattergood, of the state advisory board, looked over the local situation. The inspector visited the city hall and went over the city's plans for certain improvements in its electrical system, the other project included in the federal application. St. Michael's Men's Club Meets Monthly Forty members of the St. Michael's Episcopal Church Men's Club Tuesday evening held an organization meeting at the parish house, deciding to hold regular monthly meetings and invite speakers of prominence to address the group.

Howard Dow, rector of the church and spiritual advisor of the club addressed the men on "The Winchness of What," with Chairman Harry Horn introducing various speakers Clyde Cromer was named chairman for the next meeting. A committee of three comprised of Dr. Harry Wilhelm, Edward Howell and Ted Kuchel, was in charge of preparing and serving a five-course dinner.

Garden Grove Wins Lions Club Trophy Assemblyman Edward (Ted) Craig of Brea and Deputy District Governor Fred Neushutz of Whittier were speakers at the monthly meeting of the Orange county council of Lions clubs held at Brea Monday evening. The legislator spoke briefly on the tax situation in California. Garden Grove by obtaining 21 new members in a one-day drive walked off with the attendance trophy. It increased its membership 100 per cent. Present from Anaheim were: President Evan Alsip, Vic Loly, Roy Mendoza, August Elfiste, Herb Eldred, Clyde Cromer, Harry Macres, Dr. John Boege and S. F. Hilgenfeld. Supervisors Seek Radio Information Dubious about technical details on the proposed short-wave radio station for Orange county, the board of supervisors this week addressed a communication to the federal radio commission seeking information on whether or not the political unit of a county might operate the station and the amount of power which could be used. In the West, cities and states are operating stations in contrast to counties, but supervisors understand that in the East certain counties have their own radio stations to aid in apprehending criminals. The power issue is one asking if a 400-watt station might be constructed, or if the power will be limited to 100 watts. I will always feel thankful that I came to Anaheim when I did for several seasons. It was there I met and married my first beloved wife, Mary Williams, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Williams, of Buena Park that death took from me in 1892. And in Anaheim I first met my present wife, Maude, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Chilcoat of Paularino, eight years ago, who is also a loveable partner. So why should I not think well of Anaheim? Your items of 50 years ago bring back to mind many interesting things of my young days in Anaheim. Thanking you for courtesies granted me, and hoping you will edit the Gazette for a good many years to come. Yours very truly, M. HENRY, Balboa Island.
