Page Two of the ANAHEIM GAZETTE April 2, 1942 In The Days Of Long Ago Extracts From Files of The Gazette Issued Half a Century and a Quarter Ago. These Files Contain the Only Authentic History in Print of the Daily Doings of the Citizens of Anaheim and Orange County in the Days of the Pioneers. 25 Years Ago April 5, 1917 OLD GLORY HONORED Patriotism broke forth in a spontaneous movement last week and hundreds of citizens of Anaheim began decorating their homes and business houses with the Star Spangled banner. Three thousand people assembled on the lawn and in the streets surrounding the library building Tuesday to demonstrate their loyalty to Old Glory. Everyone made it apparent that he approved the step taken by the President in advocating war against Germany. When the President issued his proclamation calling Congress together in extraordinary session for the purpose of declaring a state of war their patriotism blazed forth. The crowd was grave, but enthusiastically cheered the speeches and the patriotic music. S. C. Hartranft was chairman of the meeting, the Anaheim band and a chorus of one hundred voices led by Miss Sloane furnished the music. ENTERTAIN FRIEND Joseph Helmsen was delightfully entertained on Saturday evening at his residence by a serenade tendered him by the Temple Square Quartette, composed of Henry Braden, Ed Cunningham, C. H. Anderson and E. E. Angell. 50 Years Ago March 31, 1892 BURN TREES The 300,000 Tahati orange trees at San Pedro, imported by the Meserves last year and which have been in litigation for so long a time were burned by the Horticultral commission under authority of the Superior court on Tuesday, the trees having been condemned as infested with scale. The burning was conducted by Deputy Sheriff J. F. Anderson and Horticultural Commissioners Scott and Compere. The trees were in crates and the whole mass was first saturated with kerosene and made a beautiful bonfire. VISIT MEXICO Plez James and Adolph Rimpau left Saturday for a three-weeks' trip to Mexico. They go on a visit to Alf Pellegrin who is prospecting mines in Sonora, between Nogales and Hermosillo. It will take them a week to make the trip and 50 miles must be made in a stagecoach.

Four years ago Tuesday of this week Mr. Helmsen left his store on account of ill health and has since been confined to his home. Notwithstanding the suffering he has undergone he always has a genial greeting for his friends. WIN IN BOWLING That the "Has-Beens" are capable of coming back was demonstrated one night last week at the Club Bowling alley when the Oyster Loaf team, champions of the Sunkist league, were decisively defeated by a bunch of the old timers. Messrs. Meier, Handleman, Elker, Schultz and Rassmussen compose the Oyster Loaf team, and having won the championship with ease they promptly accepted the challenge when the Has-Beens proposed a game, the losing team to pay for the eats at the Oyster Loaf cafe. The challenging team was made up of Chillie Fisher, Pete Wisser, Carl Vanatta, Marvin Cowan and Charlie Graham. The champs lost all three of the games and when the total was footed up they were 187 pins behind. The supper will be given the winners some night this week after which another game will be arranged. The rooting of Manager Tom Varnocke of the Has-Beens was one of the features of the game.

Step Up Your Shoe Mileage KEEP ON AN EVEN KEEL You can't be efficient or energetic if your shoes have run-down heels. Have them repaired by us. NU-WAY Shoe Repair 242 E. CENTER ST. Anaheim, California Saves VITAMINS Saves FUEL... ...CONTROLLED GAS COOKING helps you serve better meals at lower cost! YES! THE AVERAGE FAMILY can get plenty of vitamins from food alone. But it's all too easy to destroy these essential food elements in cooking. That is why it's important to know about controlled gas cookery—controlled for vitamin economy and fuel economy. Just follow these simple rules: 1. ROASTING AND BAKING—meats taste better (and shrinkage is reduced) with low temperature cooking. What's more, many of the lower-cost cuts are more tender and healthful. Remember, too—you save more vitamins by broiling than by frying. And here is where gas again is the ideal vitamin-saver: with gas, pre-heating the broiler is not essential. This not only saves time, but often helps meats to retain more vitamin-filled juices. The cold grid does not over-cook the underside of the meat during the broiling process. 2. COOKING VEGETABLES: remember, the less water, the more vitamins. (When water is essential, bring it to a boil before using.) Then cover the utensil to keep air out, and turn the gas flame to simmer heat. Cook for the shortest possible time—don't stir any more than necessary—and don't add baking soda. Finally, make tasty soups or cream sauces out of the vitamin-filled excess juices—don't pour them down the drain. 3. IMPORTANT TOO—foods should be served soon after cooking. Serve plenty of green vegetables. Keep foods as fresh as possible, with dependable automatic refrigeration. 4. AND SUCH ECONOMY! Controlled gas cooking means that foods not only taste better and are more healthful—they cost less to cook. (For you use less gas—and in the average home it actually costs only a third as much to cook with gas.) Church. Club And Society News BUSINESS WOMEN Discussion of equal rights for women workers and the decision on the part of the club members to wire government representatives in Washington to pass the equal rights amendment that has been before Congress for a number of years, was made at the Business and Professional Women's club meeting Thursday evening at the home of Mrs. W. B. Holland at 726 North Zeyn street. A dinner preceded the meeting, planned by Mrs. Holland and her co-hostesses, Miss Marjorie Pibel, Mrs. Ella Coons, Mrs. Rose Van Buren and Mrs. Barbara Kilduff. Special guests were Mrs. Holland's sister, Mrs. Edythe Trotter of San Francisco, and close friend, Mrs. Lore Thurlow, who sang several duets during the evening. Accompaniment was played at the piano by Mrs. Trotter. MOTHER'S CLUB Mrs. Ray Ruffsnyder with Mrs. Forrest Simonton and Mrs. Ivan Wood entertained members of the Mother's club of the Presbyterian church last week at the Reafsnyder home at 116 Stuckle avenue. A selection of officers was held. An election of officers was held. F.
