Many of our citizens talk of cutting down the evergreen willows that form the heedges along their vineyards and placing board-fences in their stead. Tree hedges of such magnificent growth as these of Anaheim should be allowed to remain, not only on account of their use as a fence, but but the picturesque beauty they add to the city. The green lanes and streets of all that portion of the city not occupied for business purposes should be carefully preserved in all their glory. If they are cut down Anaheim will lose one of her principal charms.
"Woodman spare that tree."
There is much need of a school on the Bolsas, at the Sears settlement. There are 20 families living there who have upwards of 30 children. The Williams' settlement has about the same number and schools should be established in both places at once.
The hotel and boarding house opposition in Anaheim is assuming amusing features. At hours of mealtime huge bells are jingled with great display from three houses 80 feet apart, and with all this fuss it is seldom that any poor victim is lured to strange hash.
The Anaheim school library has been increased by the addition of 50 volumes, mostly juvenile literature. This makes a total of got off. The only damage was a leak which will necessitate conckling her. The passengers signed a testimonial to the captain, considering their lives saved by his coolness and skill. Three of the crew were sent ashore in irons at San Luis Obispo, for having stolen a keg of wine and becoming so intoxicated as to be unable to do their duty.
At the meeting of the board of supervisors on the 21st the petition of S. S. Dunnels & Co. for wharf franchise at Newport, after testimony was taken and argument heard, was granted.
On Tuesday, we noticed 47 square looking boys going on the double quick from Guinn's school down Center Street. The lot appeared to average four feet in height and 15 inches in width. They were of a nut-brown color and well clad. In about three years these young roosters will become sparkable young men after which dull times in the social element of Anaheim will cease.

The trustees at their meeting Tuesday evening passed to first reading the ordinance calling for the municipal election on Monday, April 13, and named the following officers of election: S. Littlefield and Theodore Rimpau, inspectors; J. P. Zeyn and Charles Hille, judges; Lloyd Bailey and Fred Smythe, clerks; Joe Hat-
The test pipe put in for the water company by Gus Schade near Ernest Browning's place last Thursday served an interesting illustration of the hydro-static paradox. The pressure in the pipe where it observes a slight incline from the upper end and joins thence to a section of pipe on the level, proved too great to withstand the sudden rush of waters and it burst at the connection with a loud report, spraying water high in the air. Ventilators will be put in and another team made, when it is expected it will work all right.
Philip Davis was thrown from his buggy while driving n Broad canyon some 11 miles from town on Sunday morning and sustained the fracture of his left arm as he was also badly bruised and before assistance arrived laid on the grass at the edge of the road some three hours. A passing teamster brought him to Fletterton whence he was sent to town in one of Jenning's rigs. The horse he was driving with Mr. Dickel's well known Santa wood colt, a valuable animal, sustained the breaking of the teeth on the hind leg, and is badly injured. Neither the buggy nor the harness was injured.
There is quite a boom in Pecenta real estate. On Tuesday Mr. Blennerhassett sold his ten-acre orange tract to Mr. Botsfle for $500 an acre. Mr. Botsfle has a purchaser in hand for part of his tract at $750 an acre. The rumor was current on his street yesterday that the SaFe officials had favorably garded the building of its ranch.
The Anaheim school library has been increased by the addition of 50 volumes, mostly juvenile literature. This makes a total of 250 volumes in the library.
Here is a marine item. Last Wednesday we noticed an item that would have made the Star man stand on his head for joy — the same being a drunken Indian lying unconscious in the tide of a swiftly flowing zanja.
The steamer William Taber in a fog yesterday morning, ran on Point San Pedro, thumped heavily three times, but through the coolness of the captain and officers

Littlefield and Theodore Rimpau, inspectors; J. P. Zeyn and Charles Hille, judges; Lloyd Bailey and Fred Smythe, clerks; Joe Hatfield and Julius Schneider ballot clerks.
Fritz Ruhman's new brick block has been decorated with its galvanized iron cornices, and the painters, plasterers and carpenters are engaged in getting the building ready for occupancy. The structure makes a very fine appearance and is one of the hand-somest buildings in town. John Schauman will occupy the north room and R. H. Seale the south,
There is quite a boom in centia real estate. On Tuesday Mr. Blennerhassett sold his ten acre orange tract to Mr. Botsford for $500 an acre. Mr. Botsford has a purchaser in hand for part of his tract at $750 an acre. The rumor was current on street yesterday that the Sa Fe officials had favorably garded the building of its ranch from Fullerton to Placentia work on that line would be before long.
Mr. Botsford has sold the Farland place of 30 acres at Centia to a wealthy Colorado gtleman at $400 per acre. A dence will be built upon tract.
George Bauer is home after an absence of seven years which he spent in Sea and other coast cities.
Telephone payrolls bring greater prosperity to Californi
Keeping your phone service fast, efficient and dependable

What we already know
The engine of your 1963 car will be lighter and will give you improved performance, including better gasoline mileage.
We know this because Standard's scientists are already developing gasolines of the future. To test them, we use experimental engines installed in current model cars. The engines are obtained from auto makers and modified in our laboratories to match engine design forecasts.
These future fuels are given the toughest possible workout — on the road, as well as on this "indoor highway." Here we can create almost any kind of

e other things it takes to keep almost 68,000 households running. And these dollars, in turn, help create a host of jobs outside the phone business—help pay the wages of many another Californian.
In this way, telephone payrolls add to California's prosperity and help build a brighter future for you.

Gasolines are tested at varying speeds and engine loads to simulate mountains, traffic, freeways... under climatic conditions ranging from 120° desert heat to 40° below zero cold.
Your car of the future may never experience such punishing conditions. But if it does, we'll be ready with gasolines that will deliver all the power and performance built into its engine. Research that leads to new and improved gasolines is one of the ways the people at Standard are planning ahead to serve you better.
