REV. JOHN HOUSER ADMITTED TO BAR Rev. John T. Houser, pastor of the First Christian Church of Fullerton, appeared before the District Court of Los Angeles yesterday and was admitted to practice law in all the courts of the state of California. Today he is in receipt of his formal certificate. Mr. Houser was formerly a practicing attorney in Iowa for seven years. For three years he held the dignified position as State Attorney of the Iowa Anti-Saloon League. He is now licensed to practice, not only in all the courts of California and Iowa, but in the Federal courts of the nation as well. As soon as it became known here that he wished to become identified with the Bar Association of California, many of the leading jurists and public officials responded heartily in the petition to admit him with the highest courtesies possible to show a fellow attorney. Governor W. D. Stephens became deeply interested in him and tendered to the court, in Mr. Houser's behalf, a most complimentary letter, as also did Judge Benjamin Bledsoe of the Federal Court, and many of the prominent jurists of Iowa and California. Seldom ever has an attorney been received to the bar association from a sister state so high honors or so splendid cordiality. Mr. Joe Crail and Judge Crail of Los Angeles, took an active part in the splendid ceremony. Mr. Houser does not contemplate the regular practice of law now, but he keenly appreciates the added advantage that this privilege will mean to him in his great work of the ministry.

A unique entertainment was presented last evening in the Fairyland theater by representatives of the Famous North Western Mounted Police of Canada. Their program was divided into three groups, the first was the description of the organization of the "Mounties," how it was first established in 1873 with a patrol of less than one hundred men. Now the company is 1100 strong. To enlist in this organization a man must have a high school education and he has to enlist for a period of either 3, 5 or 7 years. The speaker told the boys that if they were figuring on being Mounted police they must not ditch school. In another issue of his talk, he dealt with the opium problem, and how the police are working to rid their community from this awful drug. He quoted some very surprising statistics of the comparative number using this drug. The second part of the program was illustrated with views of some of the mountains of snow, glaciers and other disagreeable obstacles that the greatest man-trackers in the world have to overcome. Once a police is sent out on a trail after a criminal, he never returns unless he brings the man with him, dead or alive. The barracks and officers quarters of the "mounties" were shown and also other interesting views. The appreciative audience felt it was a most profitable evening. The last part of the evening was given for the short vaudeville stunts that the men have for their amusements while they are snowed in their barracks for a period of six months out of the year.

The regular equipment of the cars now include cord tires, plate glass in rear of top, a clutch that is the envy of all automotive engineers and many other refinements and yet the prices are approximately the same as those of some years ago, before these additions were made."
