BREA, April 30—(Special)—The Victory Loan Train arrived in Brea Monday night and gave two thorough demonstrations Tuesday morning. The first being held on the school grounds where young America was given a chance to ask any question they might wish. This proved very interesting to most of the scholars although some of our boys were very disappointed at not getting to see the torpedo spin. The navy boys gave a very fine talk on the submarine. The boys who served on our submarines had many exciting experiences. There is nothing commodious about a submarine chaser, scarcely room to turn around. The soldier boys fully demonstrated the different guns and rifles, and after hearing them we have some idea of what our war cost in ammunitions alone and with all other expenses according can well see why we must do our bit in this loan campaign. The Womans' Label League provided themselves successful hostesses Monday evening. Refreshments were served, dancing and a general good time had. Everyone voted the ladies royal entertainers. Mr. C. W. Smith of the Smith's confectionery will leave today for Elsmore. Mr. Smith has been in poor health for some time and it is hoped by a week's rest and recreation at the Springs that he will come home much benefited. Messrs. Lester Isbell and Fred Caughill were Los Angeles visitors Sunday. Mrs. eGorgia C. Pickering entertained as her home guest Mrs. Hester Planter. The Brea committee of fourteen Victory Loan workers were banqueted Tuesday noon by the ladies of the Brea Parent-Teachers' Association, being served with a sumptuous meal. ORANGE-CO TO GET HELP FROM NORTH IN FLOOD CONTROL When Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties go to the state legislature and ask for an appropriation for the purpose of alding the control of the flood waters of the Santa Ana river, they can count upon the support of the 14 counties of the Sacramento Valley for the project. Representatives of those fourteen counties will join in urging Governor Stephens to sign the conservancy act which is an act passed by the legislature just adjourned, under which the three counties interested in the Santa Ana river hope to form a district with power to do control work from the source to the mouth of that river, and will also urge him to sign the bill appropriating $5000 for the purpose of gathering flood control data concerning the Santa Ana river. That the fourteen Sacramento Valley counties would support Southern California flood control projects was declared in Orange-co this week by George W. Peller, well known banker and reclamation leader of Sacramento, and Melville Doeir, Jr., general manager of the State Reclamation Board, Sacramento. Boosting Flood Control. These men are upon a tour of Southern California for the purpose of fostering and giving an impetus to whatever sentiment there may be in favor of state control of flood conditions. Particularly, they are seeking support for the proposed $3,000,000 appropriation for flood control work on the Sacramento river. The question is a vital question along the Sacramento valley. About $60,000,000 has been raised and spent in the channeling of the Sacramento river. There is some big work still to be completed, and for that the legislature "is a vote that was nearly unanimous in each house." Messrs. Lester Isbell and Fred Caughill were Los Angeles visitors Sunday. Mrs. eGorgia C. Pickering entertained as her home guest Mrs. Hester Pianter. The Brea committee of fourteen Victory Loan workers were banqueted Tuesday noon by the ladies of the Brea Parent-Teachers' Association, being served with a sumptuous meal at the grammar school building. The Parent Teacher Association held their regular monthly meeting at the grammar school Tuesday and quite a delegation from Huntington Park and Yorba Linda were in attendance. Mrs. Hester Painter member of the National Council of Women of Canada was the speaker for the afternoon. Mrs. Harvey also in an able address gave us some information that should be at once attended to. She informs us that we have 18 to 24 children in our school who are underfed and I am sure every citizen of Brea is willing to see that such conditions do not exist for any length of time and are willing to corroborate with the Parent-Teacher Assn. in any way they may help. Mrs. Pickering, President of the Brea P. T. A., had charge of the meeting. Mrs. Billy Parsons and son, Beryl, were Whittier visitors Tuesday. Mr. and Mrs. Peterkin and son, Ralph, made a trip to Orange and Santa Ana Sunday. Hobart Murphy who has been the geust of his physician Dr. Mauseur, in Los Angeles, arrived home yesterday. Leonora ePttigrew was the guest of Miss Grace Wilhite of Fullerton for the week end. Mr. and Mrs. Kit Connelly were business visitors to Los Angeles on Monday. The son of Mr. and Mrs. Eddie Brooks is much improved. A new son has come to take up his abode at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Peck. Mrs. Peck returned home from the hospital today and both mother and son are fine. A union meeting of the churches was held Sunday evening at the Congregational church. Evaneglist J. H. Woodroff who has been holding revival meetings at the Nazarene church was th espeaker for the evening. Rev. Woodroff spoke on "White Slavery". He has made the subject of great study and explained to the people of Brea how they might be confronted with white slavery right in their midst. It was an able and instructive lecture and one to give the people much subject for thought. Mrs. Geo. Bird and daughters returned home to San Dimas today after several days's visit with her daughter, Mrs. Martin Hunter, and friend. Southern California for the purpose of fostering and giving an impetus to whatever sentiment there may be in favor of state control of flood conditions. Particularly, they are seeking support for the proposed $3,000,000 appropriation for flood control work on the Sacramento river. The question is a vital question along the Sacramento valley. About $60,000,000 has been raised and spent in the channeling of the Sacramento river. There is some big work still to be completed, and for that the legislature 'a vote that was nearly unanimous in each house passed a bill appropriating $3,000,000. The governor has not yet signed the appropriation measure, and it is the desire of the two Sacramento men who were here that those interested in state-wide control of floods give their support to the project at this time and thus pave the way for a general and lasting movement for state control of floods. "We expect to give our hearty support to your projects," declared Dozler. "eW are with the Los Angeles delegation in its fight for an appropriation of $1,000,000 for the control of the rivers in Los Angeles county. Getting Better Acquainted. "In making this trip through the Southern California we have become better acquainted with your flood control problems. When we get back to Sacramento we shall look over all flood control measures that have been put through the present legislature and it is our purpose to get back of those that are worthy and that should be taken up as a part of this general movement toward statewide control of floods." "The secret of the future of this state," said Peltier, "lies in making conditions such that those people we invite here from back east may be prosperous. We must first make things safe for their investments, so that they can be prosperous. It is a bad piece of business for your country and our state for us to have an easteren come in and buy a piece of land and then stand by and let his land be washed away." Peltier returned to Sacramento today and Dozler is in Los Angeles meeting people interested in flood control there.
