IMPRESSIVE SERVICES AT CHURCH
HONORS MEN, WOMEN IN SERVICE
One of the most impressive and unusual services to be held in Anaheim was that held at the White Temple Methodist church last Sunday evening when the members of that body held a beautiful recognition service for the men and women who are members of that church or whose parents belong, and who are now serving their country or who have made the supreme sacrifice, given their lives.
The church auditorium was filled to capacity by parents, relatives and friends who gathered to pay their homage to the loved ones who are away fighting for the greatest cause on earth.
The setting for this service was very beautiful, the deep background being a white cross against the back wall and lighted with white lights with the flags of all nations displayed above the console organ. The large master candle was placed in the center of the communion rail and as the candlelight service progressed, a semi-circle of lighted candles was formed, a total of 108 candles being lighted. As each name was read by The Rev. Thomas L. Burden and Mrs. Ralph Focht, a member of the family or a representative of the service man or woman advanced to the altar and was given a white candle which in turn was lighted from one of the two alternate candles and then placed in a special holder.

Orange County Coastline Planned As Tourist Mecca; Harbors, Highways, Industrial Beltline Are Also Proposed
Mayor T. B. Talbert, chairman of the Orange County Coast Association newly formed planning committee, and Chamber of Commerce Secretary William Galline of Huntington Beach, have outlined a definite program of progressive planning for the future development of the 40 miles coastline in Orange County which is now being recognized by the leaders as the newest postal beach area for post war development.
Mayor Talbert's first undertaking will be to establish an Industrial Beltline to get ready for many large and small industrial plants and factories which want to locate in Orange County and southern California. The Industrial Beltline will be definite space for industrial expansion located a few miles back from the seashore, to insure adaptability to utilities, railroads, water and raw materials, and will see industry on acreage that fit all plans for the expansion.
Active use, within a year from now. Contacts are now being made to bring industry to this area as soon as the war ends.
The important phase of planning the Orange county coastline will be a possible secondary highway which will be planned to tie in with the proposed industrial beltline and railroad connections.
The beaches along the coastline will come in for a great deal of study and planning, particularly because the tourist trade and beach visitors will gain at least 1000 percent after the war.
Beach hotels, motels, trailer parks and auto courts will be given first consideration along the Orange county coastline, with fine eating places, holding second consideration.
The pleasure harbor at Newport Beach will hold its place for pleasure craft with the development of the upper bay as an added attraction and the proposed industrial harbor will be planned for the millions of autos that will be used to bring visitors from the metropolitan areas. A campaign to keep the Orange county coastline and Pacific ocean visible at all times is the plan and unsightly shacks which spoil the California coastline in certain parts of the Los Angeles county coastline will be removed. Huntington Beach, Newport-Balboa, Seal Beach, Laguna Beach and San Clemente are cooperating in this great development program.
Mayor Talbert with his 40 years of experience as a county supervisor, city councilman, mayor and civic leader brings to the project a personal background without parallel.
Chamber of Commerce Secretary William Gallienne, a veteran beach advocate for more beach areas for the people for all time to come, is likewise a pioneer leader of Orange county civic development.

Parents Warned Not To Leave Children In Autos
Following several recent incidents where small children have been left locked in parked automobiles and have been subjected to danger from fires and from suffocation, county police have warned parents against this practice under penalty of arrest for contributing to the delinquency of minors.
In Anaheim small children are often left in cars parked in the downtown district while their mothers go to nearby barrooms to drink, and in some cases both parents have indulged in this form of child neglect.
Such practices are dangerous whether the children are locked in the car or not. Police call attention to the fact that even if the car doors are not locked the children may open the doors and climb out onto the street where they would be in danger of being hit by passing cars.
Parents who leave their children in parked cars while they drink or "play around," or even while they may be on business errands, may return to find their children have been picked up by the police for safe keeping. And they could be subject to arrest for child neglect, according to the warning issued.
