LA HABRA REALTY SHOWING ACTIVITY LA HABRA, March 30. — (SpL) Real estate is picking up, at least a new office for Price & Bishop is being built in the corner of Hiett-st and Central-ave. A number of sales lots by this firm and from Wester, and Young, and Launer and Sutton have been reported. The Lindaur, Launer building is nearly finished and will be occupied by the La Habra cleaners establishment and as a water and real estate office. Excavations are in progress for the new building of the La Habra Investment Co., on the corner of Hiett-st and Central-ave this will be ready for tenants in 60 days. If summer ever comes there is hope that the paving will be completed and the streets cleaned up, and side walks built making a vast improvement to the town. The bungalow court being built by Luther Lindaur in Florence-st is nearing completion. This is a 14 unit court and is modern in every way. At the business men's meeting Monday evening Neison M. Launer was endorsed by that body as school trustee at the next election that takes place on Friday. The present encumbent, Mr. M. F. Pickering has signified his intention of again running for the trusteeship. Friends of both candidates are working and the election promises to be a close one. Mrs. H. E. Hart, wife of Justice Hart is critically ill at their home on Florence-ave. Slight hope is held for her recovery by the attending physicians. Mrs. Hart formally, Mrs. Ella Chaffee has been a resident of the valley for many years and is one of the pioneer-residents. She was one of the founders of the Woman's club and has always maintained close relation with that body even while away for a few years. She was made president emeritus of the club. After selling their ranch Mrs. Chaffee lived in Huntington Park, for some time returning to La Habra as Mrs. Hart three years ago. Mrs. Hart numbers a host of friends that hope for her recovery. Members of the Monday Afternoon club and a couple of guests enjoyed a pleasant hour when the club held its regular meeting at the ranch. This party returned recently aboard the S. S. Baltic try.

All told the party NEW YORK LETTER NEW YORK, March 30.—At last comes a foreign visitor who does not think our revelry has been killed by prohibition. He ought to be something of a connoisseur, too. Prince Mohamed Ali Brahimi, hephew of Sultan Found of Egypt spent several days here with us on his tour of the world, and as he is 22, rich and a sportsman, and seems to be making the trip into something like a scientific survey of the amusements of the globe, he may be accepted as an authority. And according to him, New York has the fastest night life in the world—up to midnight. We do fall down on the matter of hours, he considers, and become pretty slow after that hour, when we might keep it up for several more. the rules of conception, construction, and interpretation have been thrown overboard with a fling which must have sent them to the bottom of the sea. Consider just a few of these shapeless, freaky plays: "The Hairy Ape"—Nine scenes, soliloquies, long speeches, a gorilla for an actor, and something in all the dialogue called "expressionism." "The First Fifty Years"—Seven scenes, stretching over 50 years of married life, only two characters. "Madeline and Movies"—A play within a play, or rather a motion picture scenario within a play; the main action is only what the screen-struck valet reads from a manuscript. "Lilion!"—Eight scenes, one of them in heaven, and one of them back on earth again with the hero a spirit. "Back to Methuselam Grove" GARDEN GROVE, March 30—Mrs. Nred Andres entertained her Sunday school class of little girls of the M. E. church at her home north of town. The party was given as a farewell in honor of Margaret Martin, the little niece of Mrs. C. Franks, who left Thursday for her home in Wasco, Kansas. Sixteen little girls attended and the evening was passed pleasantly playing games, after which their teacher, Mrs. Andres, served refreshments of ice cream and cake. The Junior World Wide Guild girls held a very profitable candy sale at the corner of Larson Hardware store Saturday afternoon. The money will be used for the missionary fund. Mr. and Mrs. H. Edmunds entertained a few friends at a farewell party last Saturday evening, in honor of Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Pearson, who moved to their new ranch near River-side this week. The rooms were beautifully decorated with spring blossoms. Most of the evening was enjoyed by playing "500". At a late hour a lunch was served. The following were present: Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Pearson, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Elmore, Mr. and Mrs. Eldon Butler, Mr. and Mrs. S. Edmunds and Mr. and Mrs. A. Packard of Los Angeles. Dr. Allen and wife, returned missionaries from Africa, spoke at the Baptist young people's meeting Sunday evening. They are members of the Los Angeles Presbyterian church and are planning to return to Africa soon. Their talks were very interesting of the home life, schools and their work in that country. Dr. Harper, of Los Angeles, who is secretary of the Baptist convention, gave a very good talk on "Missions" at the Baptist church Sunday morning. Mrs. J. R. Elmore left Monday for her home at Yakima, Washington, to be gone indefinitely. Mr. Elmore and son will make their home at Harry Elmore's during Mrs. Elmore's absence. PLAN MONUMENT TO The successor to the artificial palm and the papier mache rubber plant has arrived. It is the wooden garden; the latest addendum to the nature beauties of a great city. Blossoming sticks, all painted in the proper colors, may be bought in judicious assortments of jonquils, hollyhooks, pansies and what not, and slipped neatly into a box of dirt for the window, or, if one lives sufficiently on the outskirts of our congestion, for the front porch or side yard. They are warranted not to fade—at least not until summer is well on the way, and they avoid all bother of the sprinkler and worry about the proper soil. Mrs. Mabel Emma Field, who came here from Chicago when her spiritual control turned her efforts in the direction of sketching and guided her hand while she applied the pencil, has achieved even more than that through the help of her guardian spirit. She got her picture hung. The Independent Society of Artists declined the picture for its exhibition at the Waldorf because Mrs. Field's letter and check for $10, was received later than the deadline set for contributions—and checks. But that didn't matter. The picture appeared securely tacked to the wall one morning, although the watchman and everybody else swears there was not one moment when a human being could have entered and done that. Moreover there was a neatly typed card tacked above it explaining all about the Egyptian symbolism of the "impressionistic personality portrait of Miss Edith Bennett," and still more efficient, there in the card index of the exhibits was a card written in a strange hand recording the picture as having been received March 3. Mrs. Field insists upon complete ignorance of the matter just as everyone else insists it could not have been done. It's just spirits! The established playwrights of the past 20 years must be dared and the spirits of those dead appalled by the present theatrical season in New York. All the dramatic unities, all PLAN MONUMENT TO FATHER OF IMPERIAL CALEXICO. March 30. Calexico residents have started a movement to raise a fund for the building of a monument to the memory of Charles R. Rockwood, engineer, who described as "the father of Imperial Valley." The plan has met with general approval and it is believed a memorial association will soon be formed with the sole object in view of erecting a fitting and permanent monument to Rockwood. HOME LIGHT WIRES SERVE RADIO FANS WASHINGTON, March 30. Radio concerts by electric light is the latest development, just perfected by Major General George D. Squier, chief signal officer of the army, in his wireless experiments. It does away with the common aerial. Instead, the electric company of any city furnishes the aerial, because its wire system serves the purpose. By this invention the radio fan would simply have to plug his receiving set wire to the light on the wall, or the library lamp, or the vacuum cleaner socket, and a concert or sermon or market report would fill the room with a clearess that the longest aerial could never insure. VAGABOND AUTHOR TELLS OF TRAVELS Travels through Urguay, Paraguay and the three Guianas were described by Harry A. Franek, noted vagabond traveler, lecturer and author, speaking at the Scottish Rite Hall last night under the auspices of Paul Elder. The French convict camps in French Guiana, with all their horrors, and the wild negro settlements in Dutch Guiana, where few white men have ventured, were described by Franck, who spent several months in each of the Guianas. He also told of a trip he took 1000 miles up the Amazon river, from there through the jungles to British Guiana, and thence to the Atlantic Coast. Frank prides himself on his title of "vagabond author." He always makes his journeys on foot, starting without money, baggage or weapons. If it's from Witman's it's good. Floors Laid.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound St. Louis, Mo. — "I was bothered with cramps and pains every month and had to go to bed as I could not work. My mother and my whole family always took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound for such troubles and they induced me to try it and it has helped me very much. I don't have cramps any more, and I can do my housework all through the month. I recommend your Vegetable Compound to my friends for female troubles." — Mrs. DELLA SCHOLZ, 1412 Salisbury Street, St. Louis, Mo. Just think for a moment. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been in use for nearly fifty years. It is prepared from medicinal plants, by the utmost pharmaceutical skill, and superior methods. The ingredients thus combined in the Compound correct the conditions which cause such annoying symptoms as had been troubling Mrs. Scholz. The Vegetable Compound exercises a restorative influence of the most desirable character, correcting the trouble in a gentle but efficient manner. This is noted, by the disappearance, one after another, of the disagreeable symptoms, FROM YOU? ANAHEIM THURSDAY, MARCH 30, 1922 TROPICAL SPIDER TROUBLES PHONES Certain parts of South Africa are the habitat of a large spider that weaves its web around the telephone wires strung on the crossarms of poles. The spider is enormous and its web is heavy and of a thick texture. The telephone companies were much perplexed when the late evenings and nights frequent short circuits tie up their lines. After a time they discovered that the trouble arose from the heavy spider webs. When the sun was out, the webs were dry and there was no trouble; but at night, when the webs were covered with dew, short circlures occurred. The only remedy is constant brushing away of the webs from the telephone wires. WANT BIGGER ARMY, NAVY WASHINGTON, March 30. Amendments to the Army and Navy appropriation bills, increasing the funds so as to permit an army of 86,000 to 96,000 instead of the 65,000 planned, and a navy of at least 90,000, including apprentices, will be presented in the House by Representatives McArthur and Rogers. The announcements were the first overt acts toward fighting the reductions in the two services originally proposed. See Laguorgue, 596 W. painter. OFFICE BOY HEIR TO MANY MILLIONS SYRACUSE, N.Y., March 30. Justin James Sanford, 14, is the world's office boy de luxe. Heir to a $550,000 interest in the famous Daytona (Fla.) racetrack and recipient of an income of $2,000 a year and many expense allowances. Justin daily runs errands as office boy of a commercial organization here. All because the will of his father, the late Bill Sanford, racetrack magnate, provides he shall work two years before he becomes of age. Justin lives in an expensive suite at a local hotel. His daily expenses are greater than the salaries of many who "boss" him at the office. If It's from Witmin's it's good. WEBB REPAIR SHOP 35¢ RUBBER HEELS 250 E. Center St. Cor.

ANAHEIM HIGH COSTS of materials and labor caused almost a complete cessation of building during the last three years. Today conditions are different. Prices have come down considerably—money is a bit freer and the incentive to build is now greater. If you're planning a business block, an apartment building or your own home—now is the time to get busy. We believe this is the opportune time. If you're thinking of building as an investment we believe that your money promises no more satisfactory return. Let us talk it over with you. We can give you valuable information.
