50 Years Ago Jan. 12, 1888 The electric light system to be inaugurated here within ninety days, a brief mention of which we made last week, is a step in the right direction and the enterprising citizens of our town are to be thanked for their public spirit in furnishing this very excellent illumination. The California Electric Light company, through their special agent, Mr. M. G. Elmore, has secured the necessary money for the establishment of the plant here. The company will supply light for Anaheim and some of the immediate surrounding towns. The company is a well known corporation and as a proof of their excellent mode of furnishing light, the universal use of the Brush electric light apparatus, the one which they are introducing will amply show. The plants are in use all over the state and in the east, and they are pronounced in every instance to be first class. Mr. Elmore guarantees the apparatus to give satisfaction in every particular, and says the cost will be nothing to our citizens were the case to be otherwise. Aside from lighting our streets the burners will be introduced in the stores, hotels, etc. A line will be stretched from a mast at the Planters hotel to a point across the street, burners suspended from center of the line. This will furnish light for both Los Angeles and Center streets for quite a distance either way and will be quite the people generally are advocated by the residents of our town times must get better. We hope the enterprising spirit now prevalent in Anaheim may never grow less. The following gentlemen subscribed the necessary money for the establishment of the electric plant here: Louis Schorn, Sheldon Littlefield, A. Goldthwaite, Theodore Reiser, A. Langenberger, L. F. Lewis, Plez James, Chas Schindler, N. H. Mitchell, Rimpau Bros., F. A. Korn, H. Kroeger, Hudson Bros., E. J. Pellegrin, Backs Bros., and Mrs. Metz. At a meeting of the Town Trustees of the town of Anaheim held on Wednesday of last week it was decided to lay 2,000 feet of water main on Center street in addition to that now in use to supply the increasing demand for water. The pipe will be laid as soon as the necessary material can be secured. In addition to the above improvement in the Anaheim water works, two water tanks will be erected of the aggregate capacity of 70,000 gallons. The tanks will be placed in position at once. These two tanks together with the large one already in use will hold quite a large supply of water. Anaheim may well feel proud of her excellent water works. Attention is called to the notice of the Anaheim Street Car company calling for a meeting of the stockholders to be held on January 23 at Kroeger's hall. this city was married on Friday to Miss Louise Berlin, formerly Yorba. The groom is engaged in the pharmacy business in Anglese and has many friends who extend to him and his felicitations and best wishes for long and happy married life. F. C. Benjamin and wife Frederick, South Dakota, went town the latter part of the week meeting with many former friends from the east, who are now residents here. Among those visit while in town were, J. D. L. and Chas. Eygabroad. Mr. Mrs. Benjamin are well pleased with this section and will spend the winter here later, probably making this their permanent home. The Ladies of St. Michael Guild will give a dollar social which all church members are friends of the church are invited Each lady will tell of her experience in earning her dollars poetry or prose. Non-members will have an opportunity to give silver offering to the cause, who is the building of a Guild on Friday evening, January 10, at masonic hall. The Anaheim Lodge, Knight Pythias has elected the follow officers to serve the ensuing y O. Lagman, C. C.; Walter Amst; V. C.; C. W. Hedges, prelate; Iidlor, M. of W.; C. Idlor, K.R.S.; E. H. Adams, M. of F.; The expense incurred in installing the illuminating agency is a mere trifle and it would not be unwise to predict its use in the several households at no distant day. It is safe, durable, cheap and with these advantages it will surely win public favor. What an improvement the electric light system will be over the plant which is in vogue here now. Not every town in the state can boast of an electric light system and it is pleasing to know of the fact that Anaheim will be graced with this metropolitan commodity. It will be the means of conveying the fact to the visiting tourist that we possess here an enterprising spirit worthy of their consideration and the business man will be enticed here more readily than he would were the condition of affairs otherwise. When the outside world becomes aware that we are adopting metropolitan means of improving our town it will be but a short time when we will rival our sister cities. The introduction of this modern system of lighting our city will materially advance our interests and place us on the upgrade. At no distant day we will see other projects of note started here which will place us on a more solid basis and our future will then be plainly marked out. Where matters of importance to 25 Years Ago JANUARY 9, 1913 Old-timers who saw Silkwood go to the half mile pole in a minute flat, at the Santa Ana race track, and regarded the black pacer as a worldbeater, saw a new record for speed set on Sunday by Teddy Tetzlaff, the Olive lad, who drove around the course in his Flat racer at a speed which would have singed old man Willet's whiskers. Three thousand enthusiasts braved the uncommonly disagreeable winds to see Tetzlaff perform. He made the turn in 53 seconds, establishing a new record for the track. Tetzlaff brought out his famous Flat cyclone in the sixth event to go after the track record of 58 seconds, and gave a remarkable exhibition of fast driving on a fast dirt track. He receded off three miles to get his machine tuned up, and as he passed the judges stand for the third time gave the signal that he was ready. With the big machine spitting fire he thundered around the track in 53 seconds. Earl Spencer and Howard Krause were Friday evening selected to represent Anaheim Union high school in the next Southern California League debate which is to be held with the Whittier high school in this city the evening of January 30. The marking was decidedly close and for a time it was a question which of the contestants had received the decision. Will Webb and George Hedsom gave the winners a run for their money. Other contestants in the tryouts were Ashley Chamberlain, Clarence Chamberlain., Adolph Sanderson, George Maas, Edmond Bradley, Edwin Miller, Arthur Turk, and Gerald Whitaker. The boys all did well and much credit for the success of the tryouts is due Miss Veda Walker who has had the coaching of the debaters. Attention is called to the notice of the Anaheim Street Car company calling for a meeting of the stockholders to be held on January 28 at Kroeger's hall.

In this city the low recorded was 22 degrees. Smalls were kept burning through both nights and the sky overcast with dense volumes black smoke.

BOARD OF DIRECTORS, By Walter A. Kempin, Secretary. Dec. 30. Jan. 6. 13. Orange County Welfare Case Load Shows Large Increase During Year. The welfare case load of Orange county increased 129 per cent between January and October of 1937, going from a total of 1,355 persons in January to 3,104 in October, according to a study of the relief burden of California counties made public by California Tax payers' association. The welfare case load of the county includes those persons receiving aid to the needy aged, the blind, orphans, and the "unemployable" indigents. The number of persons receiving aid to the needy aged increased from 753 in January to 1,940 in October; the blind case load went from 36 in January to 76 in October; orphans totalled 316 in January and 488 in October; while the indigent case load went from 250 in January to 600 in October. The increase in the welfare case load of the county is sharply reflected in the budget allowances of the county for welfare, which totalled $1,407,408 for the year 1937-1938, as compared with welfare expenditures by the county for 1936-1937 of $584,614, the association pointed out. Taking the state as a whole, the welfare case load from 133,094 for January to 157,853 for October, an increase of 18.6 per cent, the association stated. Needy aged persons receiving relief increased from 65,755 in January to 89,168 in October, a 35.6 per cent increase. The number of persons receiving aid to the blind increased from 4,542 to 4,962, or 9.2 per cent. Orphans receiving aid went from 24,064 in January to 28,623 in October, or 18.9 per cent. The indigent case load is the only one which has decreased, going from 38,733 in January to 35,100 in October, or a 9.4 per cent decrease. "Relief has become one of the major costs of government in California today," the association declared, pointing out that the increases in expenditures for this purpose are directly reflected in the taxes paid by every Californian.
