Hargrove, the recall candidate received less than half the amount of votes as were necessary to sign the petition asking the recall. The opponents to the recall method feel they have won a signal victory and believe that recalls will in the future be given some study and consideration before they are presented for the voters to decide. Is He Is Or Is He Isn’t Strong rumor has been circulated around the city that a cer- edheaded young gentleman has stepped through t he paces of matrimony. He consistently denies that such is the case and for that reason we can't mention his name, but he has curly red hair and he recently gave his dog to his boss Al. Now then you can figure for yourself that something has happen ... but Sooey says he hasn't met any sister-in-law as yet and he "Don't know nothing." However, here is one thing ... why would he give cigars to some certain individuals unless they had something on him. Remember we haven't told you who it is but it isn't Jack. But what we would like to know ... Is he is or is he isn’t? Final Rites For Mrs. B. F. Carey Held in L. A.

ROTARY CLUB HEARS TALK ON LINCOLN BY CLOYD HARTRANFT Tom McFadden who had charge of the program at the Rotary Club last Monday moon, introduced his speaker as "a man who looked some what like Lincoln; talked like Lincoln and was born during Lincoln's regime" and then called upon Cloyd Hartranft, a member of the club to give the Lincoln talk. Hartranft explained conditions that Lincoln faced at the beginning of his term. "Lincoln went into office as probably the most disliked man who ever held the office. Disliked principally because of his apparent lack of polish. At the beginning of the war, it was discovered that Mrs. Lincoln was a southerner, that her brother had resigned from West Point and joined the southern army. In fact many of the best officers in the army resigned their commissions and accepted like positions in the rebel army. His penchant for pardon mark, 'these boys are of much more use to us alive than dead' and continued his policy." The speaker then told of Lincoln's habit of meeting all situations by telling some story. At one time a famous woman lecturer and reporter from New York left the White House very much disgusted because she couldn't get Lincoln to act serious on a topic which she tried to interview him. Another time was a visitation by a delegation from New York which stated they represented a large number of financiers as well as political powers and they would trade the nomination for protection of New York with a gunboat. Lincoln's answer was, "well, with the government having no credit and practically broke, and with all your money, if it were me I'd buy a gunboat and protect myself." Hartranft told further of the intimate actions of the Civil War president, bringing out the more human side of the man which was introduction of those in attendance a dinner was enjoyed by the 50 present. Detailed reports from chairmen of committees were given, in which the activities of the Red Cross were brought out. Chairman Gallagher stated that many people are unaware of the fact that the Red Cross has a very definite program for peace time work and is not alone a war-time institution as many seem to think. "As these reports are made many of you will become cognizant of the fact that our work here has more of a peace problem than war." Charles Griffith reported on Home Service Work; Mel Gauer on Junior Red Cross; Mrs. J. W. Price on Civilian Relief; Mrs. E. Kate Rea, treasurer, financial report; Dr. Harold Neslund, first aid instruction; Stephen Gallagher, reported for himself on Disaster and Relief and for Chief Jim Bouldin on Home and Farm Accident Prevention. Mrs. Laura Warren, county executive secretary of the Red Cross told of the activities of other bodies in the county and R. W. Balch, county council chairman told of the work of that body. Miss Bess Soyer of Orange, who has been blind since infancy, and who is connected with the Red Cross school in Los Angeles gave a demonstration of Braille reading, also explained how the characters were made on paper.

Smith; vice-chairman, Dorothy Yungbluth; secretary, Grace W. Bailey; treasurer, Miss E. Kate Rea. Executive Committee: Home Service, Chas. E. Griffith; Junior Red Cross, M. A.

At the beginning of the war, it was discovered that Mrs. Lincoln was a southerner, that her brother had resigned from West Point and joined the southern army. In fact many of the best officers in the army resigned their commissions and accepted like positions in the rebel army. His penchant for pardoning men and boys sentenced to die for various military breaches brought down a storm on his head from all his generals who informed him they could not maintain discipline with this going on. He usually passed it off with a large number of financiers as well as political powers and they would trade the nomination for protection of New York with a gunboat. Lincoln's answer was, "well, with the government having no credit and practically broke, and with all your money, if it were me I'd buy a gunboat and protect myself." Hartranft told further of the intimate actions of the Civil War president, bringing out the more human side of the man which was eventually to make him one of the greatest men in American history. Harold Lang of the Spray Chemical company was inducted into the club by Mel Gauer, who gave the Rotary charge. SOUTHERN MEAT COMPANY HOLDS OPEN HOUSE AT PLANT SUNDAY The Southern Meat Company, Anaheim meat packing plant, which recently underwent reorganization, held "open house" last Sunday, at which time a large number of Anaheim and vicinity residents were enabled to see just what the plant had. Personally conducted parties traveled through the large plant where they observed the manner in which the meat was stored in large rooms carried to the proper temperature at all times. A large table contained a display of the various smoked meats and sausages that are made at this plant. Long rows of beeves were hung showing the manner in which the meat is handled. Also another portion of the large storage room contained a number of rows of hogs dressed and split for market use. And thus the various products of the plant were on display. After visiting the storage rooms of the plant, the visitors were conducted to the outside of the building where a wonderful barbecue dinner was served, with a choice of beef, pork, smoked meats, coffee and beer, along with the "fixins'." The corrals at the plant contained livestock showing the type of animals used at the plant. St. Catherine’s To-Hold Drill Sunday Major Bernard Castor, executive officer at March Field will be the reviewing officer at the monthly drill Sunday to be held at St. Catherine’s Military school here next Sunday, February 16.

Panniers Now Proud Parents Mr. and Mrs. Milton Pannier of 543 South Lemon street are the proud parents of a baby daughter, born Friday evening at St. Joseph’s hospital. The little miss, who weighed seven pounds, is as yet waiting for her father and mother to reach a decision as to her name. Mrs. Pannier was Mrs. Edna Korn before her marriage. All members of the family are doing nicely. War Nurses Are Eligible, Bonus According to an announcement made by Harry Edwards, county service officer, war nurses are eligible to the same bonus as the exservice men. This question has been asked many times since the passing of the adjusted compensation and Edwards received the ruling on the matter. The announcement was made in Anaheim by Ted Masterson, who said that if there is any doubt as to status, former service nurses should get in touch with Edward’s office and the matter will be explained in detail. It is evident that many of the ex-service men of the county plan to hold their certificates, inasmuch as only 1550 out of 4,000 had applied for the bonds.
