PARK COMMISSION SUGGESTED AS NEXT MOVE FOR ANAHEIM
It was practically assured today that the city council will vote tomorrow evening to accept the very generous offer of A. G. Langenberger's 20-acre orange ranch on No. Lemonast for a city park, following the enthusiastic endorsement given the project by a largely attended meeting of the Board of Trade Monday evening and by other organizations and citizens in general.
Mr. Langenberger stated today that a large number of people, particularly clubwomen, had visited the grounds and large residence yesterday and today and many were the expressions of surprise that were elicited at the discovery of a "Round Table Clubhouse" already for occupancy and the advanced stage of the trees and shrubbery, so far ahead of anything that could be hoped in starting with a bare tract of land and making a park of it.
In the discussion at the Board of Trade Monday evening, Mr. D. Jerrurun said:
Too Good to Be True
"The proposition is almost too good to be true. I cannot see how DO WE NEED HOUSES?
Chas. A. O'Connor, highest salaried employee of the Union Oil Co., in which he is superintendent of construction and an important stockholder, was a guest of his brother, D. J. O'Connor here Sunday. He is starting the construction of a $5,000,000 refinery at Wilmington and had hoped to make his home here where he is well known and which he considers the livest town in California for its size, but he was unable to find a satisfactory home and will live in Long Beach.
He is the builder of the 300-pipe line and eight pumping plants between Bakersfield and Fresno.
EPISCOPAL PARISH MEETING MONDAY
The building committee of the Episcopal church is meeting with success beyond its fondest hopes. The subscription list which was started a few days ago already totals nearly $1300 and there is no fear but that a total of $2000 for the improvements will be readily secured.
There will be a meeting of all the parish Monday evening to hear the recommendations of the building committee. The building will be reshingled, repainted, a vestibule added and possibly some other improve-
day and today and many were the expressions of surprise that were elected at the discovery of a "Round Table Clubhouse," already for occupancy and the advanced stage of the trees and shrubbery, so far ahead of anything that could be hoped in starting with a bare tract of land and making a park of it.
In the discussion at the Board of Trade Monday evening, Mr. D. Jerrurun said:
Too Good to Be True
"The proposition is almost too good to be true. I cannot see how the city could reject it. I certainly wish to commend the spirit of generosity that has prompted Mr. Langenberger.
Mr. Chaz. Eygabroad suggested that if anything the income from whatever part of the park is left to oranges could be enhanced by the street sweepings which are now sold at a nominal sum.
Mr. Henry Adams said:
"Anaheim will be able to say something that no other city in Southern California can say and that is that in accepting the proposition this city will have a park that is more than self-sustaining."
Throught the discussion at the Board of Trade the understanding was given that in accepting the proposition it would interfere in no way with the plans for a grouping of public buildings in the center of the city and in fact, it was apparent, that the whole idea of public improvement has been greatly stimulated by Mr. Langenberger's offer.
The next thing to be considered, it was stated by a well-known citizen today, is a park commission of public spirited men and women with the time and inclination to study the proposition of public parks and make the most possible out of the Langenberger project.
"There should be a park and play grounds board just as there are library and school boards," continued the speaker.
STILLWELL RETURNS
Sergt. Glenn Stillwell, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Stillwell of Fullerton, arrived home yesterday afternoon, having received his honorable discharge from the Presidio. He is glad to be at home with his relatives and friends. He was with the 364th Infantry Band, 91st division and was sent home with a casualty company. He was in the service a year and five months, engaged in battles at St. Mihiel, Verdun and Argonne, and was gassed in the last.
NEWTON SEELLS GROVE
D. L. Newton has sold his ten-acre Valencia grove on the boulevard between Orange and Garden Grove to C. L. Vanderberg of Fullerton. The ranch is 1-1-4 miles west of the county hospital. The trees are five years old and today and many were the expressions of surprise that were elected at the discovery of a "Round Table Clubhouse," already for occupancy and the advanced stage of the trees and shrubbery, so far ahead of anything that could be hoped in starting with a bare tract of land and making a park of it.

HENRY IS PATRIOTIC
You have to hand it to Capt. Alex Henry for the patriotic spirit. On Washington's birthday he hauled out his cannon and fired 21 salutes. Then, on Monday, to commemorate the return of President Wilson from his mission to Europe, he gave another series of salutes after having to chase all over the county to get some powder which costs about $50 a shot.
Captain Henry is the youngest old man in town. He celebrated his $2nd birthday Feb. 15 and on Jan. 27 his coming to Anaheim.
"I'm just as much of a kid as I ever was," says the Captain, "and could walk to Los Angeles with any of 'em."

The prevailing sentiment throut out the world today is for permanent peace. And the great panacea that is being offered for the murderous melting pot, enphamistically called war, is a sort of a Monroe Doctrine for the world.

Capt. Mrs. Geo. Tedrick; assistants Miss Bertha Schmidt, Miss Mackey West, Mrs. F. Macleob, Miss B. Walker.
One Week's Campaign
The plan will be to make it a whirlwind drive of as few days as possible, rather than string it out for months. It is planned to have completed the drive by March 6. The goal is...
Harbor entrance and for dredging the bonds just voted will pay completion of the channel from harbor entrance past Balboa to port, giving a ten-foot depth at water so that all light draft vessels may enter the harbor at any time. This will mark the actual being of a harbor at Newport, as section of the channel will no longer bring many more pleasure and bargains permanently to the Orchard county harbor, and will make place in a small way the development of commerce at Newport.
Harbor boosters throughout the city are now more confident than of the possibilities of developing local port, as the vote showed the people of Newport—who to know more about the harbor anyone else—are almost unusually in favor of progress. With port willing to spend $240,000 on harbor, they believe Orange council overwhelmingly vote an adal $500,000 bonds as recommended by the harbor commission to stop actually a commercial port at the Santa Ana river into the bay so it will be unable to dump more all into the bay.

Letter to Membership
The following letter was being mailed to the membership today:
Greetings;
The hour has struck. The watchword is "Forward March." The favored time has arrived for the erection of the new church building—the hope of years, and now to be realised.
After very careful consideration, Bishop Leonard and the leading Centenary leaders of the coast have so affirmed; the trustees unanimously voted it; the official board unanimously endorsed the action of the trustees; a larger meeting of the members of the church unanimously concurred; the businessmen of Anaheim say so; the pastor says so. We submit that the action of the above people, boards and meetings, carefully considering the matter from every angle and knowing all the facts involved, unanimously endorsing the move, is sufficient to cause every member to fall in heartily with the project, get behind it and "go over the top."
Let us make it unanimous clear down the line.
Cannot Look Back
We believe a crisis has come to the Methodist church of Anaheim. We have reached a dividing of the ways. If for any reason we should fail to build, the church will be crippled beyond repair. We cannot look back.
We are positive every member of the church will fall in line with the vast majority who have spoken and do his or her utmost. This may be the last time some of us will have a chance to do something worth while for the kingdom. If there is anything you do not understand or desire explained, the pastor is at your service.
Terms Reasonable
At the end of the week of the financial drive we shall have a jubilee and Dr. Charles Edward Locke of Los Angeles will lecture on "Getting Along with Folks:"
Let us all get on the "band-wagon" and rush on to a glorious victory, assist the solicitors and workers all you can. We know you will not retard them in any way. Let us
