O. F. and Rebekahs held a social last night that brought to light the sad misdoings of two of their number. It was hard to believe the reported misdeeds of the heretofore responsible and reliable men, but when Bird Beebe and Doc Stall were found guilty of driving an auto when intoxicated, and sentenced to "set up" the ice cream and cake for more than 150 persons present at the trial, it becomes a matter of fact. The whole thing came to light when a kangaroo court session was held at the gathering of Odd Fellows and Rebekahs and their friends, Miss Hannah Horwitz as presiding judge upheld the traditional dignity of the court. The prosecuting attorney was O. T. Callor, and the defendants' attorney was C. W. Hedges. Witnesses for defense C. G. Mauerhan and E. B. Johnson told all the nice things they HOTEL VALENCIA GUESTS.

MISSIONARY MEETING FRIDAY The Ladies' Missionary Society of the Prebyterian church will meet with Mrs. T. S. Grimshaw, 112 West Broadway, Friday afternoon at 2:30. 40 ENJOY APOLLO CLUB PICNIC The Apollo club, composed of the pupils of Miss Lund Wellman, accompanied by their parents and a few friends, numbering about 40, held a picnic yesterday. The affair was rather of a progressive nature. Going first to the ranch home of Mr., and Mrs. George M. Tedrick, near Orange, they enjoyed a musical program. At 4 o'clock they all left for Orange County Park, and immediately started to give every pleasure-giving thing in the park personal attention and try outs. Of course, this induced appetites and the generous picnic luncheons disappeared as if by magic, and to top it all off, peach ice cream and cake were served. Miss Wellman received one of the most pleasant surprises when she was presented with a lovely brown leather handbag, the gift of her pupils. She will carry the bag to her field of study in New York City, and it will serve to keep in mind constantly the donors and the happy occasion upon which it was presented. BOY SCOUTS HOLD MEETING Frank Sackett, Editor The Scouts of Troop 1, Anaheim, held their meeting last night at Freemont school. As there have been no meetings since the summer camp was opened the evening was passed very pleasantly. Scouts John Shea, Jack Mattis and Jim Fitzgibbons are going before the Court of Honor to take their first class test. Scout John Shea was elected Senior patrol leader, Jim Fitzgibbons his assistant and Jack Mattis was elected scout scribe. Stall were found guilty of driving an auto when intoxicated, and sentenced to "set up" the ice cream and cake for more than 150 persons present at the trial, it becomes a matter of fact. The whole living came to light when a kangaroo court session was held at the gathering of Odd Fellows and Rebekahs and their friends. Miss Hannah Horwitz as presiding judge upheld the traditional dignity of the court. The prosecuting attorney was O. T. Callor, and the defendants' attorney was C. W. Hedges. Witnesses for defense C. G. Mauerhen and E. B. Johnson told all the nice things they could about their bretheren, but William Mang and George Tanner told bigger stories to the contrary. Bill Sackett was the arresting officer. The heartless jury of men and women returned with the verdict, but strange to say, everything then was lovely, and the prisoners with the guests were invited into the banquet room where refreshments were served. Dancing and a social time brought to a close one of the most interesting social affairs of these two orders in some time. FIDELIIS ELECTS OFFICERS. An all-day meeting of Pidella class of Methodist White Temple was held yesterday in the church parlor, a large number being present. Each lady brought a contribution for lunch which was served in cafeteria style. At the business meeting it was voted to hold the class meetings each second and fourth Tuesday in the month during the remainder of the summer. Election of officers resulted as follows: President, Mrs. Sylvia Johnson; vice-president, Mrs. Harry Jayne, secretary, Mrs. M. Terry, and treasurer Mrs. Goodyear. The committees appointed for the coming season will be announced Sunday morning at the Sunday school hour. A very pleasant feature of yesterday's meeting was the birthday anniversary of Mrs. Bungay, one of the power members and a lovely birthday cake was a part of the luncheon menu. Mrs. Bungay has volunteered to make and supply the class with jelly to be used in cases of illness among the members; and friends of the church. Two dozen children's garments were finished, several aprons made and considerable quilting was done, showing that these ladies are a most energetic lot. The next meeting will be held with Mrs. Johnson at the Hoskins home, on S. Los Angeles-st. BOY SCOUTS HOLD MEETING Frank Sackett, Editor The Scouts of Troop 1, Anaheim, held their meeting last night at Fremont school. As there have been no meetings since the summer camp was opened the evening was passed very pleasantly. Scouts John Shea, Jack Mattts and Jim Fitzgibbons are going before the Court of Honor to take their first class test. Scout John Shea was elected Senior patrol leader, Jim Fitzgibbons his assistant, and Jack Mattts was elected scout scribe. Owing to the fact that many of the Scouts are still on their summer vacation, only 30 boys were present at roll call. Plans are being made whereby the Boy Scouts of Anaheim will be permitted to drill with the fire department so that they may be called out in case of emergency. RAIL LEADERS PLAN PROTEST CHICAGO, Aug. 17. — Railroad union leaders here today prepared to protest to the U.S. railroad labor board against the transfer of the Erie shops at Marion, Ohio, to privy control under non-union conditions. More than 500 men in the Marion shops have refused to enter the employ of the Railway Service company, formed by Marion bankers and business men to operate the shops under contract, according to information received by B. M. Jewell, head of the railroad department of the American Federation of Labor. Thorobred Chickens Are Taken By Thief Chicken thieves who may understand the value of extra fine stock entered the runs of H.B. Anderson, Westminster poultryman, in the early morning hours yesterday, and took 68 of his best young cockerels and pullets, according to a report received here today. He values his loss monetarily at about $100, but declares it will be double that from the standpoint of breeding purposes. No trace has been found of the thieves, who had an auto and evidently were prepared to take the entire brood, when they were interrupted by the squawking of some of the hens. GETS SENTENCE FOR RECKLESS DRIVING William Jones, colored, of Anaheim, today is under a suspended sentence of 60 days in the county jail and minus $25 for driving his auto in a reckless manner last Sunday afternoon. And if he drives his car on a public highway within the next six months he is liable to arrest and imprisonment. Judge Cox granted Jones permission to drive about the city of Anaheim on business, however. Jones was brought into court yesterday afternoon on complaint of C. W. Dorsey of Whittler. Dorsey testified that Jones attempted to drive between Dorsey's machine and another when these two were passing each other at a point on Newport boulevard about five miles this side of Newport. According to Dorsey, Jones drove his car at an oblique angle across the highway and directly in the path of his machine which was going in the opposite direction. A collision resulted and both cars were damaged. Dorsey's little daughter was slightly hurt. Other witnesses testified that Jones cut in ahead of them. Judge Cox told the defendant that he was a dangerous man to be on the highways and that he would keep him off for a period of six months. Dorsey presented Jones with a bill for damages to his machine, which, it was stated, are approximately $100. MORE STUDY OF ELOCUTION The time is coming when more attention will be given in public schools to the cultivation of the art of public speaking, or rather oral instead of written expression, in the opinion of Prof. Leonard G. Nattemper, instructor of public speaking and art and a member of the faculty of the Long Beach high school, as expressed in a brief talk at the meeting of the Santa Ana Rotary club. "Public Speaking for Business Men," was the subject of his discussion and he touched upon points that have their influence on the average man and woman when they attempt to speak in public. Self-consciousness, he declared, is one of the greatest factors in causing the average person to forget what he wants to say when he stands up before an audience. He declared that school training should be directed in the lines of teaching the pupil to "think on his feet." EXTEND OIL LEASE IN SANTIAGO CANYON A six months' extension of the oil lease of the Orange-co Petroleum company on property in Santiago canyon belonging to the John T. Carpenter Water Co. and the Serano Water Co., was on file today. The lease covers 100 acres on what is known as the "water ranch," and was made a year ago. The extension is for a period of six months from Oct. 27, 1921. According to the statement today of A. O. Hodson, of El Modena, the Orange County Petroleum Oil Co., has been reorganized and extension or the lease has been granted in the reorganization movement. The company is boring on the Monette lease, adjoining the holdings of the water company, and the contract with the water company calls for drilling operations on the 100 acres within 90 days after it struck on the Monette lease. The well on this lease is now down 1700 feet, and good oil indications have been found, according to reports that reached Hodson. The swifter the joy ride, the sooner the last slow ride. DENOUNCES MEN, THEN SUICIDES LOS ANGELES, Aug. 17. — "All men are bad." That damning charge was the sole heritage pretty Hazel Desdemona Davis left to a world that had killed her soul and broken her woman's heart. Such was the disclosure in the farewell note left behind by Miss Davis before she committed suicide on the moonlit sands of Long Beach last Saturday night. In it is the last cry of a broken heart and a girl afraid of becoming prey to "unscrupulous men." GOOD KILLERS" BEING SOUGHT NEW YORK, Aug. 17.—New York detectives took up the search today in a dozen cities for members of the "Good Killers."

Dr. Brumfield, in a semi-stupor, either real or felled, was closely guarded by Sheriff Starmer of Rose- Good News for Parents Who Go to School At this time of the year, when the school heard in the distance, the planning of clothes yields the place of interest to those moors will soon be off to school.

Brumfield has admitted his identity to Sheriff Starmer and professes to have completely forgotten the use of his alias, Norman Whitney, according to the sheriff. HIGHTOWER COLLAPSES SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 17.—Authorities today believed they had drawn a net of evidence around William Hightower, charged with the murder of Rev. Father Patrick Heslin, from which he cannot escape. What they consider the final blow to Hightower’s defense was delivered yesterday when Mrs. Marle Wendell, housekeeper for Father Heslin, identified Hightower as the “muffled stranger” who called the priest from his Colina-home on the night of Aug. 2 to “minister to a dying friend.” Police expressed the belief that as far as Hightower’s story is concerned “Dolly Mason” is a myth and said they believed it could be proven. Heaven is paved with good intentions put to good use.
