NEWS OF FULLERTON 5-FOOT SIDEWALKS SOUTH OF TRACKS A large delegation of citizens living south of the Santa Fe tracks appeared before Fullerton trustees at their regular weekly meeting last night to discuss things of interest to that vicinity, chiefly the matter of putting in sidewalks on Maple-st from Spadra-rd to Malvern-ave. Some wanted a four-foot side-walk, but the greater number were in favor of a five-foot sidewalk thus harmonizing it with the remainder of that section. The board voted a five-foot sidewalk. It was also requested that the fire district be extended. This was done. The petitions from So. Spadra-rd, three in number, requesting that the permit be denied the Standard Oil Co. for a service station in that section, were laid on the table. A resolution was passed turning the deed to the property on No. Spadra-rd where the new hotel is to be located over to the community hotel committee. The deed is now in cacrow. The Starbuck-rd, which has been in litigation for a number of years, was up for discussion again last night. A committee of three, composed of Trustees Davis and Strain and Mayor Coulter were appointed to investigate the present status of litigation and the people's attitude towards the project, and report at the next meeting. The water system as applying to the new subdivision was discussed.

BEAR TEAM AFTER TAFFY STOPS MARCH One thinks of hugs when one gazes at bears and perhaps that's why a yokel, with a brown derby hat, a purple silk shirt and patent leather, but ton shoes, eating taffy and absorbed in the passing sights of the Al G. Barnes circus parade at Coshocton, Ohio, last year, made the remark that he did. However, it is more likely that the sight of pretty Miss Dot Whitney, driving a team of black bears in the pagcant, startled the bumpkin into remarking, "Gosh! I could jest' hug the girl!" Things happened then. Despite Miss Whitney's pull on the reins, both bears made for the astounded speaker, who swallowed a whole time's worth of taffy and ducked through the crowd. The taffy gone, the circus girl hung swinging her bear line, but the yokel rushed it awfully dangerously remarks about lace G. Barnes show ww about. But, you'll see great wild animal shows to Anaheim Wednesdays and the two mile strides its scores of open marches by on the mall that Miss Whitney eyes the throngs along folks eating sweets.

FEW PRINCETON MEN HAVE AUTOS PRINCETON, N. J., March 8. An investigation as to the number of privately owned automobiles on the Princeton campus reveals that of the more than 2000 students not more than thirty have cars which they keep in Princeton. Dr. John Grler Hibben's letter to parents depicting the use of automobiles by students was evidently intended for future conditions. The number of automobiles greatly increases around the time of "proms" and other college entertainments, when there are a large number of guests in town, and the students bring their family cars up for use during a limited period. Students in general approve Dr. Hibben's views, but believe that the automobile menace was not sufficiently great to warrant the sending out of the circular letter. The Daily Princetonian published last year an editorial on the subject of students using cars for going to classes, and deplored the parking of them in front of McCosh Hall, where the noise interfered with classes. The senior council adopted a resolution in the autumn to the effect that possession of a car might prove a positive detriment to a student. The student body digested this resolution and considered the incident closed. Then the letter from the administration. The senior council feels, however, that the authorities have sided with them rather than their bowing to the will of the administration. The movement is in the general direction of democratization in so far as it is possible on a college campus.

The total is estimated at 31,228 miles. Every state in the United States shared in the benefits of 11,930 miles of highway which war constructed with federal aid. The total cost of the projects will be $231,963,-682. The proportion of this amount contributed by various states was $137,906,593, the remainder of $94,-057,089 by the federal government. Wholly completed roads were computed to total 8,595 miles. Road projection in 1921 in the United States exceeded by more than ten per cent all previously improved highway mileage in the country.

"BOOTLEG" WHISKEY MIXTURE OF RANKEST POISONS KNOWN WASHINGTON, Mar. 6.—According to the industrial alcohol division of the Probibition commissioner's department, there is an organization engaged in wholesale treatment of denatured alcohol for the purpose of converting it into "bootleg" whiskey. Denatured alcohol can be purchased in the open market without restriction for 35 cents a gallon and this organization purports to nullify the poisonous character of the alcohol by chemical treatment. Government chemists have ascertained that the process of changing denatured alcohol into so-called whiskey requires the use of either bi-chloride of mercury, lysol, formaldehyde or some similar disinfectant, and that after this process is completed the fluid must be colored, and, in order to do this iodine is being used in many instances, as well as lead, copper and zinc poisons. According to the government industrial alcohol division, the liquor produced does not kill or bring about total blindness immediately, as does pure wood alcohol, but it attacks the nerve tissues and digestive organs in such a way as to produce total paralysis within a year or two and eventually blindness and death.

PADRES' DIARY GIVE LIGHT ON WEST COAST Two of the most important historical discoveries made in many years in either of the Americas were presented to the world in the last year. One of the documents of which had been hidden in half a dozen states, comprised the complete records of the French regime in Louisiana Territory, and part of the Spanish domination of the lower Mississippi valley. These records, consisting of more than 400 hand-written volumes, are now being translated, repaired, indexed and filed by a staff of workers in New Orleans. Strangely enough, the work is being done in the Cabildo, the official headquarters of the various governments of colonial Louisiana, in which virtually all these documents were written and signed by Bienville, Iberville and the other and numerous governors of those days says H. H. Dunn, in the Boston Transcript. MARRIAGE CENSUS GIVES NEW FIGURES WASHINGTON, March 7.—Sixteen hundred oys and 12,234 girls 15 years of age in the United States were listed as married in 1920, the Census Bureau announced today in a statement presenting a special analysis of marital statistics. Eighty-two boys and 499 girls of the same age were recorded as widowed or divorced. The analysis revealed a distinct increase during recent years, or since the 1910 census, in the percentage of married persons for each year of age from 15 to 34, especially among the younger members of this group. The age group from 25 to 44 inclusive also showed an increase in the ratio of married persons in the decade, although less pronounced, especially among the women, while the proportion for persons 45 years of age and older showed a decrease.

C., Mar. 7. — "Of all the hobbies hit by the war, few suffered more severely than the cult of the orchid," says Christopher Beck. "It was not merely that the collectors who are always roaming in the steamy swamps of the tropics found something else to do, but also that the coal famine forced scores of private collectors to close their orchid houses." Now the orchid is coming back to its own; collectors are again invading the forests of the Amazon and the jungles at the base of the Himalayas, and the most wonderful of flowers is regaining all its former popularity. New varieties of orchids are produced from seed by means of cross-fertilization, a process both tedious and difficult.
