The regular weekly meeting of Fullerton trustees was held last night at the city hall, there being a five-minute session. The majority of the trustees, including Roy R. Davis, R. A. Marsden and Robert Strain have the flu, and in order to get a quorum Davis was hauled to the city hall in a closed coupe. The only action taken was the passage of a resolution providing for the city election on April 10, at which time two new city trustees will be elected.
The terms of Davis and Strain expire at that time. Strain will not run again. Davis has announced that he will Hoppe and Moore, businessmen, have announced their candidacies and C. W. Miller is expected to announce within a short time, having been recommended by south siders. Others are also expected to announce, which will make the race a very exciting one.

CONFER MARK MASTER DEGREE
The first Mark Master degree was conferred at the regular meeting of the Royal Arch Masons at the Fullerton Masonic Temple last night. No other meetings at the temple are scheduled this week.
SAND CUTS DITCH DIGGER
The sandy soil underlying the streets and alleys of Fullerton proved destructive to the gearchain which carries the diggers on the hills.
FEDERATED CHURCH HEAD WILL SPEAK
The executive committee of the Houser Bible class has arranged for Peter Ainsley of Baltimore, president of the Federation of Churches of North America, to speak before the class Sunday morning. Dr. Ainsley has an international reputation. He is known as the leading religious exponent in the world today. He is editor of several prominent books treasured highly by the Christian world. One book is entitled "God and Me" and another is "My Brother and I." These writings seem to set forth the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of man in way never before expressed since the days of Jesus.
His message will be a treat of a life-time to the men of Fullerton and vicinity. It is said that Dr. Ainsley's addresses reveal the nearness of his life with the infinite. He makes the works of the Master so real that men are gripped and fascinated. All prejudice is thrown aside and each one leaves his presence with a prayer that God will make him a better man. Arrangements are also made for the noted speaker to occupy the pulpit of the First Christian church both morning and evening.
The Doctor is visiting on the coast and will be here but a short time. His services were secured though the efforts of Mr. C. C. Chapman who came in touch with him in international conventions. Every seat in the theatre should be filled. The music and other parts of the program will also be exceptional, but the major portion of the time is to be given to this great man from the east.

SAND CUTS DITCH DIGGER
The sandy soil underlying the streets and alleys of Fullerton proved destructive to the gearchain which carries the diggers on the big water ditch machine, cutting it to an extent that compelled them to lay off Monday and put on a new one.
As the chain was practically new when they started the job and the cost of replacing it was something like $600, it will be readily seen that digging water ditches, even with the aid of modern machinery, is far from being a get-rich-quick proposition.
WARNING LIGHTS STOLEN
That there are some cheap and conscienceless thieves travelling the state highway through Fullerton is proven by the fact on the stretch of ditch from the Anaheim turn to Ashave, in Fullerton, no less than 18 danger signal lanterns have been stolen from Contractor Claude Fisher, who is handling the water extension job.
The red lights are put on a job of this kind to warn travellers of possible danger, thus making the crime of removing them not only contemptible, but absolutely cold-blooded, as indicating a total disregard for human life.
MASS MEETING OF COMMUNITY PLAYERS
The Fullerton Community Players will hold a mass meeting at the Fullerton high school auditorium tomorrow night at 8 o'clock, it was announced today. The meeting is for the purpose of getting the people interested, and anyone from Anaheim who will attend is most cordially invited. Not only those who are desirous of becoming an actor in the community players organization, but others also are invited.

SEVERAL MAKE TRIP TO FONTANA LANDS
Several people from Anaheim and the surrounding territory have been out to Fontana in San Bernardino county this week to see the new offering of vineyards that has been placed on the market by the Fontana Farms Co. for which the Elliott Anderson Realty Co. are local agents.
According to a report from their office at 120 North Los Angeles-st, the bids that are being made for the 1922 crop of grapes are higher than were the initial bids last year, when as high as $150 a ton was paid for Mission Grapes in the Fontana district and the average price ran around $100 with a yield on irrigated lands of from four to eight tons.
The Elliott Anderson people believe that a great many in and around Anaheim will take advantage of the exceptional values that are being offered at Fontana where young vineyards are being sold for $450 an acre and all care and water is provided for three years.

BIG CIRCUS PARADE
PLEASES HUNDREDS
Um-pahs of red-coated bands; roars of hundreds of jungle beasts; rumblings of tableaux wagons, cages and dens; shrilling of oriental reeds, and the hoarse chanting of steel lunged caliopes — these are the sounds that contribute today to the gala circus holiday of the season, for it's the Al G. Barnes circus that steamed into the city with the dawn; it's the Al G. Barnes tents that loom against the skyline at Anaheim circus grounds, and it's the Al G. Barnes lengthy open den street pageant, resplendent in new trappings, that delighted thousands in downtown streets shortly before noon.
Yes, it was the Al G. Barnes wild animal circus, with Tusko, largest elephant in the world, "Alice in Jungleland," the stupendous lyrical extravaganza, and 1200 wild animal actors that vivified the spirit of youth in all of us, when the stirring hits of brass and reed boomed from the six bandwagons; when the clatter of hunderds or hoofs, the jingle of studded harness, the gibes of clowns, the trumpeting and the squawling of zebra teams rattled against our ear drums as we gazed and gazed.
Out at the circus grounds, the great tents resounded with the hoop-la of the big show this afternoon — with three steel arenas, two rings, two stages and the hipodrome track filled with every imaginable display of educated wild and domestic animals, to say nothing of many new offerings almost inconceivable, even to those of us who know the Al G. Barnes show of old. The show is much bigger, smarter, more thrilling, more amusing, with its elements of barbaric pageantry and operatic surprises developed with consummate skill. The new big top—one of the largest ever built—was completely filled this afternoon, and, without a doubt, its great chair grandstand, reserves and blues, wit: be jammed at 8 p.m., when the

Anaheim will be well represented Saturday, March 18, at the triangular track and field meet at the Santa Ana poly high, when there will be entries from all schools of Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside-cos.
PLANTATION SONGS AT THE CALIFORNIA
Coming to the California Theatre tomorrow is one of the most pleasing vaudeville bills that Meiklejohn and Dunn have brought to Anaheim in some time. On this bill will be many diversified acts and each of them contains one hundred per cent entertainment value.
Carrying their audience back to the days of satins and powdered wigs, the Virginia Trio, promise 20 minutes of old plantation melodies and songs that are full of beauty and charm. The quaint costumes of the colonial days, combined with the harmony of the old days are sure to delight all who see this act.
From the orient comes Yendy's, the oriental entertainer with his numerous baffling tricks and bright Chinese chatter. This clever fellow has played Grauman's Million Dollar Theatre many times and is shortly to play a return engagement at this theatre.
PROBATION OFFICER HI-Y CLUB SPEAKER
The members of the Anaheim Hi-Y club met last night at the Y. M. C. A. building on South Philadelphia street for their regular meeting and supper. Following the supper, which was a stag affair put on by the boys and supervised by Secretary Raitt, R. R. Miller, county probation officer, was introduced as the main speaker. He spoke on the subject, "True Values In Life," which he was able to illustrate through his varied experiences in the probation work. His talk was not only interesting and instructive, but entertaining as well, and the fellows expressed themselves to the effect that this was the best meeting they had held so far. Plans for the future call for a trip to the "Y" camp, Camp Lewis, and an evening at the new Y. M. C. A. building at Long Beach.
ANAHEIM ENTRIES IN TRI-COUNTY MEET
Anaheim will be well represented Saturday, March 18, at the triangular track and field meet at the Santa Ana poly high, where there will be entries from all schools of Orange, San Bernardino and Riverside-cos.
The preliminary events will be held at 10:30 a.m., The final field events will take place at 1:00 and the track events at 2:00. Anaheim athletes will not enter the relay. Cook, the local spinner, is expected to do some remarkable work in the sprints. He is entered in the 100, 220, 440 yard dashes and also the shot-put. Clayes will run in the 220 low hurdles. Giese will make an effort to place in the shot-put. Mann and Briggs are qualified for the 880 and Briggs is also in for the 440. Seims is out for a place in the broad and high jumps.
The local men have a good chance to take places but do not expect to win the meet.

Silver loving cups will be awarded the school carrying off the most points and the athlete making the most individual points.
IMPERIAL LOSES IN SEMI-FINAL CLASH
The Fullerton high school basket-eers won over the Imperial team in the second game of the semi-finals played at Imperial in the Imperial valley, according to word received this afternoon at the office of L. E. Plummer, high school superintendent. The score was 40 to 17.

One of the brightest offerings that can be imagined is that of Norma and Leslie, well known ligature stars who offer a number of diversified selections. The voices of this talented duo are really quite remarkable.
Musical Walsh, better known as the musical chef, finds music in pots, pans and many other kitchen utensils. There is a vein of comedy that runs through Musical Walsh's offering.
Harris and Harris bill themselves as the kings of comedy. They call their act "Sense and Nonsense" and promise a riot of fun.
"A Wife's Awakening," which is a Lou-Gasnier production in which Fritz Brunette is featured will be three photoplay which will be shown in addition to the vaudeville.
