Sept. 25, 1886.
The following petition is being circulation for signatures, which are readily obtainable. We the undersigned residents and taxpayers of Los Angeles county, interested in having a practicable avenue of communication between Upper Santa Ana, Orange and Anaheim, respectfully beg leave to represent your honorable body that in our opinion the time has come when a bridge across the Santa Ana river at or near Burruel Point would be not only a convenience, but is an imperative necessity, and an improvement, the tax-payers interested have a right to demand. We therefore request your honorable body to appropriate a sufficient amount of money to defray the expense of such a bridge.
From the report of the proceedings of the Board of Supervisors of Los Angeles county on Monday, September 20, we take the following items: A petition bearing 1000 signatures was presented asking for a bridge over the Santa Ana river at the extension of Fifth street, Santa Ana. Action was deferred.
Wednesday, Sept. 22.—In the matter of the bridge across the Santa Ana river as per petition of James McFadden, et al. Supervisor Ross moved that the prayer of petitioners be granted and that a bridge be constructed across said river, to consist of five 70-foot spans and nine 40-foot spans. The 70-foot spans to be built as per plan of Sanford crossing bridge and the 40-foot spans to members, but it is expected the membership will reach 40 in a few weeks. Following is a list of the present members: A. McDermont, commander; E. Barr, Sr., vice commander; H. C. Gade, Jr., vice commander; W. A. Witte, officer of the day; Rev. G. A. Irvin, chaplain; T. K. McDowell, quartermaster; Wm. A. Hounson, officer of the guard, S. S. Wood, surgeon, W. A. Packard, adjutant, B. F. Land, sergeant major, J. B. McCullough, quartermaster sergt., D. B. Gray, A. E. Hendricks, Chas. Baker, A. V. Howard, G. W. Spouable, Delos Morton, P. A. Schumacher, Wm. Young, A. E. White, F. S. Wallace, E. Leonard, R. M. Gamble, Rev. O. M. McNiff.
A novel proposition is about to be acted upon in Ventura, when the streets are to be sprinkled with crude petroleum instead of water. A very little petroleum will lay the dust and keep it down a long time. The streets of Anaheim have not been sprinkled for a week, pending the repairs on the water tank, and a bath of petroleum or something else is what they badly need. Petroleum may be good for the streets, but it may perhaps be bad for the people.
Road Oversee Paty makes the following response to the complaint made regarding a certain road in his district:
"My attention was called to Sycamore street through your last week's paper. On the 20th instant I examined the road and found it in very good condition he will be able to resume his duties.
Miss Clara Mosseman has returned from San Francisco where she has been for a prolonged season.

The description pamphlet of Anaheim and its immediate surroundings issued by the Board of Trade, the contract for printing which was awarded to the Gazette a month ago, is off the press and ready for distribution. It is the best piece of advertising matter ever gotten out of Anaheim and is a credit to the men who compiled it.
The book contains 34 pages of well-written matter descriptive of Anaheim, its industries and points of interest and gives many statistics of the remarkable growth and improvements of the town during the past year or two. It gives a brief history of the colonization of the town more than fifty years ago by a company or enterprising San Francisco Geo-
Wednesday, Sept. 22.—In the matter of the bridge across the Santa Ana river as per petition of James McFadden, et al. Supervisor Ross moved that the prayer of petitioners be granted and that a bridge be constructed across said river, to consist of five 70-foot spans and nine 40-foot spans. The 70-foot spans to be built as per plan of Sanford crossing bridge, and the 40-foot spans to be built as per plan of the Compton crossing bridge, all spans to rest upon 8-pile bents.
The clerk was ordered to advertise for bids for the construction of said bridge.
The organization of Malvern Hill Post on Friday evening of last week at Odd Fellows hall was quite an event in the history of Anaheim. Sedgewick post, Santa Ana, turned out en masse to assist Anaheim comrades. Installation was conducted by Comrades Berry and Shaffer and other members of Sedgwick Post. After installation a superb collation was served in the ante room.
Commander McDermont was master of ceremonies and toasts were responded to by Comrade B. F. Land, Mosbaugh, Berry. Comrade G. A. Irvin and Mrs. J. W. Layman. The music by Prof. Packard, Mr. and Mrs. Knapp and Mr. T. S. Grimshaw was a feature of the evening's entertainment which deserves special mention.
The post organized with 24 may be good for the streets, but it may perhaps be bad for the people.
Road Oversee Paty makes the following response to the complaint made regarding a certain road in his district:
"My attention was called to Sycamore street through your last week's paper. On the 20th instant I examined the road and found it in very good condition with the exception of a few chuck holes. If that chronic growler who found fault with the road will feed more, use more axel grease and attend to his own business, he will pass over that agonizing road with less noise."
The large and constantly increasing business of Messrs. T. J. F.

Health Record of University Is Outstanding
Judging from the records of the Cowell Memorial hospital on the campus of the University of California, the health achievements of the university are in a fair way to equal its academic achievements, if they have not already done so. In the academic year 1935-1936 there were but three deaths from natural causes in the student registration of 14-418 on the Berkeley campus, while certain epidemics which occasioned some concern elsewhere, did not seem to disturb the even tenor o things among the student population here.
Eight students, all told, made up the mortality list on the campus, but five of these deaths were due to other than natural causes. In addition one professor died in the infirmary as the result of an accident. According to Dr. R. T. Legge, head of the hospital, the total of student deaths per thousand is considerably below that in the same age classifications outside the university, and is a striking example of the manner in which intensive medical care not only preserves life but maintains health in the youth of the land.
Of the 14,418 registrants, 11,997 were given some sort of treatment in the hospital. This coyers 63 per cent of the registered students. The total number of patient visits was 91,289, and the /average number of patients treated daily was 345.
The football huskies and other men examined for athletics numbered 1,544, while 5,253 physical examinations were given new students.
The relatively large number of students treated is explained by
Electric Business Potentially Granted
A potential demand for over 000,000,000 worth of electrical liances, enough to keep more than 1,000,000 people at work four and one-half years, is provided by the McGraw-Hill lishing company in the cuu issue of "Factory Manager and Maintenance."

And of the home- are wired for electricity, out of ten do not have refrigerators, five out of ten not have electric washing chains, and there is a vast ket for toasters, clocks, irons, percolators and other pliances, statistics show.
Women Resent Big Tax Laws

Electric Business Potentially Great
potential demand for $16,-000,000 worth of electrical appliances, enough to keep more than 1,000,000 people at work for one-half years, is pointed out by the McGraw-Hill Publishing company in the current issue of "Factory Management Maintenance."
While we have made great advances in the use of electricity we are still 10,000,000 American homes that have no electricity, it stated. And of the homes that wired for electricity, seven of ten do not have electric generators, five out of ten do have electric washing machines, and there is a vast market for toasters, clocks, waffles, percolators and other appliances, statistics show.
Women Resent Big Tax Load
No class of citizens feels the tax imposed by the Roosevelt administration more than women, as a result feminine voters enrolling in large numbers for election of Governor Landon B. Colonel Knox. Women voters especially interested in the study of New Deal levies through payers' groups.
"Women are aroused," asserted Robert Kratky, director of the payers' division of the Republican national committee, "for tax burdens fall heavily upon them. Women hold title to nearly half the homes in America. They have about 65 per cent of the savings.
