NEWS OF FULLERTON FULLERTON BOARD TALKS CITY HALL The subject of a new city hall was the all embracing matter before Fullerton trustees at their regular weekly meeting last night. M. Eugene Durfee, architect, appeared before the board and showed plans for the new Anaheim city hall. He advised the trustees to take as much time in making plans for the new city hall as they expected to in the building of the structure. Some of the trustees want a distinctive building, though not a freak, one that would attract the eye of the passerby. L. P. Drake especially desires something of this kind, and one that can easily be distinguished from the hotel alongside it. Otherwise, people might be coming into the city hall looking for lodging. Plans were discussed though no decision was reached. The trustees expect to follow Mr. Durfee's advice, and take plenty of time to consider the proposition. Permission was granted the Standard Oil Co. to erect a service station on the corner of Truslow and Spadra. A petition was received from the citizens of East Maple-ave asking that ornamental lights be installed in that vicinity. This district will probably be added to the other in that vicinity. 30 DAYS FOR VAGRANCY I. S. Henry, negro, arrested by Fullerton police, was hailed before Judge French this morning on the charge of vagrancy. It was stated that he had been hanging around town for some time. He told the marshal he was from Tennessee, and Mont Jackson that he was from West Virginia. He was sent to Santa Ana to spend the next 30 days in Sheriff Jackson's hotel. AMERICAN LEGION MEETS The regular meeting of the American Legion, Fullerton Post, was held last night. Routine business was transacted. It is stated that the Legion Weekly will drop all subscribers who have not paid their dues. PADDOCK SPEAKER FOR BIBLE CLASS Twenty of the leading business men representing the Houser Bible Class of Fullerton, have completed plans for Sunday's campaign. They are arranging for one of the biggest meeting Fullerton has ever witnessed. Streets will be roped off so that a monster enclosure in front of the Rialto theatre and embracing the Chapman lot will be created to hold the gathering. A platform will be built in front of the threatre to accommodate speakers and singers. The city band in full regalia will furnish the music. Charles H. Padock world famous champion spinner, will speak. Arrangements are also being made for a celebrity of national repute to address the gathering. A great panoramic picture is to be taken of the entire group which will be used for advertising purposes in the papers of the nation. The management contends that there will be no less than 1,000 men in attendance and many of them are optimistic enough to believe that there will be at least 1500 present. It is conservatively reported that no city in the world of Fullerton's size has ever undertaken such a gigantic enterprise. The people of Fullerton are not surprised or amazed at these big plans for this group of men have always done the unexpected and big things and they have always found the ready support of all of Fullerton and community. The Houser Bible Class is not confined to Fullerton alone. It has a great constituency in neighboring cities. La Habra, Buena Park, Placentia, Yorba, Olinda, Richfield, and Brea all contribute every Sunday to its great gathering and these cities are justly proud in the accomplishments of the class and all will contribute their portion of interested men.
