A GREAT and delicate task lies before the public health authorities of the Nation in keeping the dread typhus from obtaining footing and spreading in this country. Co-operation of the public, in maintaining cleanly, sanitary conditions, should be given to ward off what might become a dreadful scourge throughout the country. LOVERS HAVE FRIEND IN THIS SHERIFF There is a sheriff in New York who has a heart of flesh. The news dispatchers do not give his age, but he is not a year over 16 in the keenness of his perception of sympathy with the ardors of youth. Some one sent him an anonymous communication complaining of "spooning" by young couples on top of Fifth Avenue busses. This tender-hearted officer of the law came right back at the complainant with a sharp thrust to the effect that a man must be either a crabshed old bachelor and one who has been disappointed in love who will seek to invoke official aid in putting an end to a heritage of nature as old as the world; certainly there is nothing clandestine in spooning atop a bun." And right this sheriff is, provided the manifestations of affection do not pass beyond the bounds of propriety. Youth has its right to "the pursuit of happiness." And courting is a legitimate source of happiness. It is ordained of nature that human beings, as well as birds, should have love-making experience. Miserable indeed must be the nature of the one who ceases to have sympathy with or understanding of the innocent, affectional ardenies of youthful lovers. SOME OF the correspondents who last June, had the candidate of the Republican national convention selected twenty-four hours in advance of the nomination—and their prophesied nominee was not Mr. Harding at all—are hard at it again, this time announcing, with the utmost assurance, the personnel of Mr. Harding's cabinet. When a correspondent becomes infected with the germ of prophecy there is small hope for him. The Village Gossip Frank J. Connolly, veteran S. P. engineer, in a personal plea to motorists, states he is puzzled to know why auto drivers not only risk their own lives but the lives of those riding with them by trying to pass in front of swiftly moving trains. "A fault wholly within the power of the driver of a machine to remedy," said Connolly, "is to drive right up to within ten or twenty feet of the tracks when he sees a train approaching, even when he intends to stop. You may have a right to do this, but it does not give the men on the engine a chance; they have no way of knowing whether you intend crossing the track or stopping until you get right on the track. Stop back or slow up 200 feet from the crossing. This will give us a chance and avoid many accidents. Also, when you hear a train approaching, do not take for granted that it is a freight train; it may be a fast passenger train, and such have the habit of creeping onto you before you know it. The best development there is laying plans ground floor. MOVED We wish to announce to the people of Anaheim that we are now located at 311 E.

P., electrifying of the S. P. branch from Santa Ana to Newport Beach and a line from the latter branch direct to the Palisades are either under consideration or have been provided for, according to persistent rumors at Newport Beach. The rumors are supported by the fact that a party of S. P. officials visited the Palisades recently and made thorough investigation of the tavern. Officials were at the place again this week and it is stated on what appears to be good authority that negotiations for the purchase of the tavern are now definitely under way at this time. Confirmation of the report by S. P. officials was not obtainable today. Included in the group at the tavern this week was Paul Shoup, formerly at the head of the Pacific Electric and now vice president of the S.P. It is believed that the dredging of a channel in Newport Bay, and harbor improvement work that is in progress there, has awakened railroad men to the possibilities of development there and that the S.P. is laying plans for getting in on the ground floor. EXPECTING OIL WELL IN TRABUCO CANYON With the drill at 965 feet penetrating a rich brown shale, owners of the Tepathol Oil Co. well on the W. K. Robinson ranch in Trabuco canyon today were predicting the bringing in of a fine oil well in the near future. Oil indications have been very favorable throughout and those who are in close touch with the operations have no doubt that the company is certain to develop a new and important oil field in Orange-co. The company has had many obstacles to contend with. Starting first with a water well drilling equipment, the first hole was lost. Standard equipment was installed some time ago and progress in drilling has been rather slow because of the hard formations encountered. Gas pockets have been struck repeatedly and every indication has been encouraging. It is said that considerable oil is now flowing from the sump hole in which the dirt brought up by the drill is dumped.

Calif., counties are lining up in the war against motorists and others who insist on cluttering the highways with refuse. Auto club officials declare individual motorists are not the worst offenders in the wholegale dumping of rubbish which is becoming noticeable. They do say, however, that motorists succeed in making the roads unsightly in the vicinity of picnic grounds and in some of the canyons by throwing lunch refuse right and left, but the main efforts will be made against larger offenders who dump rubbish on a wholesale scale. There are laws in effect which cover this type of offense. JURY FAILS TO REACH VERDICT Attorneys for C.Z. Landreau, chiropractor of Huntington Beach, today were planning further to defend Landreau, the jury which tried him having failed to reach a verdict.
