50 Years Ago Nov. 10, 1887 Anaheim is sadly in need of proper sidewalks, and needs more light at night for pedestrians. As soon as the Hotel del Campo shall have been completed we expect that our town will be filled with strangers intending to locate here. Lack of proper hotel accommodations has been one reason we have not had our share of the stream of visitors now pouring into the southern part of the state. Los Angeles is overcrowded, people walk the streets at night unable to find lodgings. Rents are exorbitant. Thousands of people are looked to arrive this winter. More people will come to Anaheim if they think they can put up at a hotel with city comforts and appointments, and the people who come must be shown that Anaheim has thrown off its sleepy-hollow swaddling clothes. To compete with other towns we must improve our town. First, we must have proper cement nine-foot sidewalks through the business portion of the town, and then we should have lights enough to enable people to see them at night. Our present street lamps are too much like angels' visits—too few and far between. We should have double the number. We respectfully urge these points upon the people of Anaheim. When these are completed it will be time to talk about other improvements which we should have had long ago—which other towns in the county possess and which is the prime reason why Anaheim is not the second town of importance in Southern California. and four teachers were added to the number, making the total 22. This year another teacher was put on at Katella and a room added to the building to accommodate the increased number of students. Two other teachers were added in town, making the total number 25. This number is divided among the buildings as follows: Katella 2, Fremont school 6, Central school 8, Broadway (primary school) 4. Besides these there are four special teachers for music, drawing, domestic science and manual training, and Prof. J. L. Vanderveer supervising principal with office in the Fremont building. Grades 1 and 2 are taught in the Broadway school, 1, 3, 4 and 5 in the Central school and 0, 7 and 8 in the Fremont school. Thomas L.

"The Old Maid" is Current Play at Pasadena Theatre Prophecy played a potent part when "The Old Maid" received its baptism of footlights in New York. Critics saw the play as the greatest woman's play of a generation and lost no time in their predictions.

ELECTRICITY BRINGS PROGRESS SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA's retail sales represent one-third of the time of this class of business throughout the vast area of the western states. This tremendous volume of business, amounting to one-three hundred million dollars and ranking Southern California as the nation's fourth largest retail market, flows through number of retail establishments, furnishing steady employment to an army of men and women.

"We have had an excellent fire record so far this year, and hope that we can carry on until the end of the fire season," Brenneis said. "Of course, the fire season isn't over yet, for we cannot figure the season as 'over' until heavy fall storms arrive. Nevertheless, the record of the past few years offers a decided contrast as compared with, for instance, the year 1928. During that year more than 125,000 acres were burned over." Last year 85 acres were burned over in 51 fires; this year, to date, 42 acres have been burned over in 20 fires. ment, I will sell the above described property, or so much thereof as may be necessary to satisfy said Judgment with interest and costs and expenses of sale, at public auction to the highest bidder and best bidder for Cash, in lawful money of the United States.

Urge Irrigation To Aid Walnuts Irrigation water should be applied to nearly all walnut orchards as soon as harvesting operations are complete, according to recommendations submitted this week to walnut growers of Orange county by Farm Advisor Harold E. Wahlberg. Nearly all orchards were irrigated during the latter part of August or the first of September, and that supply has by this time undoubtedly been depleted. It would be injurious to the trees to allow them to become too dry before they go dormant, Wahlberg said. It is a well known fact that as long as leaves of the trees remain green the tree is using water. It is true that much less has been used this fall than last. Here in Orange county where there is only a limited amount of cold weather it is essential that the trees go dormant naturally. They cannot be forced dormant by withholding water. Such practice would jeopardize the future health and vigor of the tree. It is better therefore, to keep them in good growing condition and let dormancy come as a natural phenomenon, rather than an artificially created condition.
