VESPER SERVICES
AT FULLERTON PARK
Vesper services in the city park next Sunday afternoon at 5:30 is the novel program to be provided by the Christian church of Fullerton. Miss Daniels, a well known contralto singer, will be solist. The entire personnel of the Houser bible class will stand back of this unique program, fostering the idea and giving the outdoor services their support. These meetings will be held every Sunday for several weeks. The park superintendent, Mr. Squepelt, will provide scats on the "common."
Services with program additions will last one hour. The Rev. Frank M. Dowling of Placentia was guest of honor and a speaker yesterday noon at a class meeting in the Christian church where lunch was served by a committee of women headed by Mrs. Storey. A unanimous vote of thanks was extended to the ladies for the enjoyable menu.
Rev. Dowling spoke relative to the proposed Placentia division of the Houser bible class and a committee was appointed consisting of Messrs. Dowling, Pritchard and Chapman to confer with the Placentia men about meeting with the class here, under the name of the Placentia division. The influence of this movement is growing gradually to surrounding towns. It is predicted that an attendance of 500 will be registered at the Sunday morning bible class sessions in the Rialto theatre by October.
The members are going to take Sunday "off" before long and go down to Long Beach as an army of invaders to visit the bible class of that city. Mr. Fuller will donate badges for the Fullerton visitors. The Long Beach men probably will return the compliment.

FULLERTON WATER BONDS APPROVED
The Fullerton bond issue went over the top at yesterday's election with a bang that was enough to shock all the anti-progressives of the city into insensibility. The vote was 408 to 63. The results of the election were known soon afterwards.
The officials of the city, with the exception of R. A. Marden, who objected to the new reservoir, voted for the bond issue to be placed before the people, were in optimistic spirits today over the results.
The present water system is practically worn out, and there is great need of water being extended into the new subdivisions also, but these can be cared for under the new issue. The bond issue was for $280,000.

ANCIENT BUILDING STILL IN SERVICE
Fullerton's first business house, the old office of Amerige Bros., has just been repainted, papered and repaired by George Amerige and it is now good for another generation of useful service.
If this historic building could only speak it would no doubt relate some very interesting events connected with the early history of Fullerton. It has occupied various sites in the city and has been occupied by various lines of business. In fact within its walls the destiny of the city was largely shaped. Business projects of great magnitude were launched and vast sums of money have changed hands.
The office was erected in 1877 on the site where the Fullerton Daily Tribune building now stands, was later moved to the middle of the block north of the north of Commonwealth avenue, then to the corner now occupied by the Amerige building, later to the rear of the lot and finally to its present sit at 125 E. Commonwealth avenue.
The office was first used by Amerige Bros. as a real estate office, later by Dunbar, Stevens and Wiggins, real estate dealers. It was next used for a drug store by William Starbuck, as a barber shop by Web Lymbourner, a Chinese laundry by Sing Lee, again as a real estate office by Amerige Bros., later as a Christian Science reading room, and is now occupied by Mrs. M. Stull as a sewing machine shop.
Mr. Amerige was recently offered a flattering price for the building which he promptly refused. He values it more than all his other worldly possessions for the sentiment that is woven around it.

Fullerton's tranquility was disturbed by the shriek of the fire siren. Everyone rushed out to see the great fire and arrived downtown to see—the fire engine tearing down main street towking a waterwagon with the inscription "Fullerton needs more water." The band also commenced to play and the fire engine paraded around town—some advertisement.
