Entered at the Postoffice at Anaheim, Calif., as second class matter. RECALL ELECTION WILL BE HELD AT STANTON FRIDAY The long awaited recall election at Stanton will be held Friday. The reasons for the recall of the various officials, as set forth in the sample ballot, are as follows: John F. Roe. — "That on January 10, 1921, a resolution was passed by three members of the Board of Trustees of the City of Stanton to arrange with the Road Department of the County of Orange to grade, repair and surface Stanton Avenue in the City of Stanton, at a cost of $2000 per mile, more or less, for 2 and 5-8 miles; that a majority of the residents of the City of Stanton objected to the expenditure of the City's funds for this purpose and fearing that the said John F. Roe shall he remain a member of the Board of Trustees of said City that he will expend this money for this purpose against the wishes of the majority of the people, residents of the City of Stanton." James F. Robinson. — "The said James F. Robinson, as a member of the Board of Trustees of the City of Stanton, proposed to the Board of Trustees of the City of Stanton, on the 10th day of January, 1921, a resolution, the purpose of said resolution being to expend money belonging to the City of Stanton at the rate of $2000 per mile on 2 and 5-8 miles for the purpose of grading and surfacing Stanton Avenue in said City; that a majority of the residents of the City of Stanton are opposed to the expenditure of this month this avenue and your petitioner. Informed and believe that unless the said James F. Robinson is removed or recalled as a member of the Board of Trustees of the City of Stanton, he will assist in the expenditure of this money on Stanton Avenue in opposition to the wishes of a majority of the people of the City of Stanton." Frank G. Redmond. — "That said the war. But Columbia University is faced by such a record breaking attendance at this summer's course that she has resorted to registration by mail to facilitate matters. There are already 12,000 applicants, and one of the most interesting things about it is the unusually large percentage from business men and women. Corporation finance, advertising, banking, economic geography and subjects of that kind are being grasped at by people of the early middle age who have already achived some business success, to a degree unknown before. The "Life-Saving" suit is the latest innovation among the early season crowds at the beaches herabout. It hasn't exactly the chile look of some other costumes we have observed, but it certainly is practical. A splashy group of youths starmed the dashes as well as the beach onlookers the other Sunday at Coney when the merrily walked forth into very deep water indeed, and never made a move to swim. The suits are of rubber, air-tight, and according to their wearers unsinkable. An officer of the Seventy-first Infantry at the Park ave. Armory was recently drilling a mounted troop at Van Courtland park by wireless telephone. A number of the rank and file were watching him with interest as he shouted his commands into the transmitter. Then as the experiment came to an end, away off in the crowd a voice was heard to remark. "If a Captain can drill his troops by this taling ten miles away, can you imagine how far behind the lines the generals will be in the next war? New York may tighten up on the liberality with which she has been throwing around the "freedom of the city." Aldermanic President La Guardia presented a resolution to that effect at the board meeting the other night. Maybe he thought, the city didn't have enough freedom to be giving it about to carelessly; maybe he didn't want to embarasa visitors by having inquisitive aldermen ask who they were when proposals for its bestowal came up, as happened recently, when one of them said, "Who is this Dr. Elmstein?" However, as some one pertinently inquired, "When you get this 'Freedom of the city' what have miles for the purpose of grading and surfacing Stanton Avenue in said City, that a majority of the redients of the City of Stanton are opposed to the expenditure of this monthis avenue and your petitioners, informed and believe that unless the said James F. Robinson is removed or recalled as a member of the Board of Trustees of the City of Stanton, he will assist in the expeniture of this money on Stanton Aveue in opposition to the wishes of a majority of the people of the City of Stanton." Frank G. Redmond—"That said Frank G. Redmond, as a member of sold Board of Trustees, has failed and refused to consider the interests of the City of Stanton as a whole, and has considered and acted in the interests solely of that particular portion of said City in which he reides, and by his actions on said Board has shown himself to be unqualified to act as a member of said Board." F. C. Beecher—"That the said F. C. Beecher as City Clerk and Ex-officio Clerk of the Board of Trustees of the City of Stanton, is directed by a certain resolution passed by the Board of Trustees of the City of Stanton, on January 10, 1921, wherein and wholly the said F. C. Beecher as Clerk of the Board of Trustees of said City of Stanton was directed to arrange with the Road department of the County of Orange, to grade, repair and to surface Stanton Avenue with decommissioned granite at the estimated cost of $2000, more or less, per mile for 5-8 miles. That a majority of the residents and qualified electors of said City of Stanton are opposed to the expenditure of the City's money for this purpose and they fear that if the said F. C. Beecher remains as the City Clerk and Ex-office Clerk of the Board of Trustees of the City of Stanton, he will carry out the conditions of said resolution hereinafter referred to against the wishes and desires of the majority of the people and qualified electors of the City of Stanton." Justification by officers sought to be recalled: John F. Roe—"The Board of Trustrees has done the only proper, practicable and businesslike thing that could be done in the matter of improving the streets of the City. No apologies or explanations are necessary." James F. Robinson—"My action regarding street improvements and all other matters for the City of Stanton has been entirely without any selfish motive and according to my best judgment for the benefit of said City. The street improvement work has been done in the best and fairest way possible under the present conditions and circumstances." Frank G. Redmond—"I have tried to the best of my ability to procure attention and repair of the roads in all section of the City and the graveling in sections of the very bad places." F. C. Beecher—"As City Clerk I am under bond to perform certain liberality with which she has been throwing around the "freedom of the city." Aldermanic President La Guardia presented a resolution to that effect at the board meeting the other night. Maybe he thought, the city didn't have enough freedom to be giving it about to carelessly; maybe he didn't want to embarrass visitors by having inquisitive aldermen ask who they were when proposals for its bestowal came up, as happened recently, when one of them said, "Who is this Dr. Einstein?" However, as some one pertinently inquired, "When you get this Freedom of the city, what have you got?" Everyone knows that women keep their youth much longer than they used to. But if anyone doubts it, le him (for there are no "hers") who doubt) consider the case of Miss Mary Sherwood of this city, aged 50 years, who has just been adopted as a daughter by Henry C. Webb. Nearly 50 years ago, Mr. and Mrs. Webb lost their only a child, a little girl. Soon after they met 6-year-old Mary Sherwood They borrowed her from time to time to play about their lonely home and eventually she became a permanent member of the household. So now, 40 years later, upon permission of Kurrogate Poley, she has been legally adopted. "I Just went away to get a job and make a living for myself." This was the settlement made by 11 year old Raymond Molony, who was found helping the station master at Sound Beach, Staten Island, after his parents and the police had been conducting a city-wide search for him.

The much sought-after "Bob" Boelet has recently become the husband of the Princess Riabouchinsky, famous throughout Europe for her beauty and charm, and evidently glad to get a nice short name even at the expense of "Princess." A new Bernard Shaw book, which purports to be the dynamic author's scientific, religious and political soul-disclosure, is announced by Brentano's for early publication. That sounds like a rather large field, but when Shaw starts out to disclose his own ideas, he is able to do it sweepingly. In form, the new boo® is a play in five acts, but every act is complete in itself, and every-one contains Shavianism in concentrated form. It will have the most general appeal of anything produced recently from Shaw's mind and temperament. Wood-sawing is the favored pastime of the moment with a whole galaxy of ambitious Gotham women. Not at all in response to the example of the woodchopper of Ameroigen, but because they've learned that it leads to a supple waistline. If you see a middle-aged stoutish-woman who nevertheless is managing a youthful away to her body, you may know that there's a little woodpile in her cellar. The recent cold snap, coming on top of summer weather, played hob with a good many suburban gardens. Put fruit trees suffered grievously from frost bite. But one Wastechester computer solved his problems of that kind for all time. Directly in front of his dining room window is a prize peach tree, all in blossoms. The proud owner felt the chill blast approaching and he attached an extra long cord to the household's electric toaster and carried it out through the window to the peach tree, fixing it as close as possible to the young branches. It was left with the current on all night and the tree was saved. New York is having a chance to inspect a complete and authenticated set of the famous little secret paper, "La Libre Belgique," which was printed in Belgium during the three years that country was occupied by the German army. Many individual copies have been over here before, but never before a complete file. There are only four sets in existence. This one was originally bought by M. Zeeger, of Brussels, and is only being exhibited here. PLAN FIRE COMMISSION FRESNO, May 19.—A fire commission composed of five leading Fresnans is to be set up immediately to tackle the local fire risk problem. Meanwhile a 15 per cent increase in rates on all but class A and class B buildings has gone into effect. A Want Ad in the Plain Dealer Will Bring Results. The actual shooting of bandits by post office employees is going to bring handsome rewards according to the recent schedule of fees announced to be paid in thief hunting. The local postal service is armed wherever the carrying of valuables is involved and today interest in the matter increased when the postmaster stated that $5000 will be given to the man that hits a bona fide ygg crosswise in a longitudinal direction with one of the steel capped bullets. Of course, there is a scale of prices in the new pastime. Just an ordinary and common thief will bring $50 to $100. A post office burglar is rated at from $50 to $200 for capture. But the mail robber who measures up to the "yggg" type will bring $5000 each. On the other hand, there is nothing in the ruling that states the robber must be shot dead. If he is captured alive the reward will be the same regardless of his undamaged condition. With so much money involved it is safely surmised that the initial bandit will be blown up, for postal clerks these days are taking no chances. The shooting irons are loaded and the mailman knows that whon Uncle Sam offers a reward he's going to get it. Witman, keylight Specialist.
