IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO From the Files of The Anaheim Gazette By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 88 YEARS AGO January 2, 1872 OUR TOWN HAS REGAINED much of its old-time business vigor since the advent of a better season. The streets are crowded with teams, the merchants are busy and the farmers are buying all the seed and agricultural tools to be had. Another store has just been opened and still another will commence operations soon. A new restaurant will be opened before long, and it is expected that a furniture factory and store will soon be built on Los Angeles street. The elegant new Anaheim hotel will be opened next Saturday by Mr. Bremmerman, and will make additional accommodation for the wants of travelers. The vineyards have all been pruned and look trim and neat. Fields of glrain are gradually spreading over all the plain outside of the city, looking green, bright and cheerful. Many pieces of land are being sold every week to actual settlers and population is steadily increasing. A bright and prosperous future is before Anaheim and she will doubtless make more rapid and permanent improvement in the next two years than any other town in the state. Anaheim Lodge LO.O.F. will be instituted at the Masonic hall, Anaheim, on Tuesday evening next by M. W. M., W. H. Hill, assisted by Dep. G. M., H. Wartenberg, and others. New Hospital Seen For Alamitos Area Lou Letson, administrator of St. Francis Hospital at Lynwood, announces plans for a new $3 million non-profit hospital at Los Alamitos Blvd. and Katella Ave. The proposed hospital was brought to the attention of members of the Rossmoor Property Owners Association in an effort to halt plans for locating a new junior high school on land adjacent to property earmarked for the proposed hospital. The Anaheim Union High School Board has authorized condemnation proceedings for a 20-acre site on the north side of the Rossmoor residential area near the proposed hospital location. Board members, however, have indicated they will be willing to reconsider the location of the junior high school at a future meeting. Machinery lately put in operation in the Angelic burg.
