December 16, 1915
The oldest building in Anaheim is being dismantled this week to make way for a modern business block. It is the old adobe build-in on the south side of Center street between Los Angeles and Lemon. It is owned by John Cassou, and is on the site of the new structure which he is planning to build. The building was erected when Anaheim was extremely young, either by Dryfus or Langenberger, and for years was the most imposing structure in Anaheim. During the great flood of 1862 it was the only building in town that was not swept away. But it has served its usefulness and must give way. The new Cassou block will be one of the finest in town and work upon it will begin as soon as the debris is cleaned away.
The First National Bank will also begin shortly on a new three story building on the corner where the present building stands, and it is reported that a splendid structure which includes a theatre is being planned for Center and South Philadelphia.
At the meeting of the Board of Trade Monday night the following officers were elected for the New Year; Prof. E. W. Hauck, president; Chas. Eygabroad, vice president; J. W. Duckworth, sec-

The election of eleven directors of the Loan and Building association on Saturday evening resulted in the selection of the following gentlemen: Messrs. Horr, Dickel, Harker, Schindler, Bullard, Zeyn, Helmsen, F. Backs, Dr. Hunt, Pellegrin, and Everharty. There were probably a dozen others who were voted for, among the number the editor of this family journal. Some of our indiscreet friends executed a ghost dance and voted for us, very much against the wishes of our family. Please do not do this again.
However, the association will do very well under the management of its directors as at present constituted. The association has achieved great success during the year. Owing to the inability of Secretary Horr to give us the tabulated statement of the finances of the association for publication this week, that interesting document necessarily goes over into our next issue.
