Y. M. C. A. PROPERTY IS WORTH $7,500
That the Anaheim Y. M. C. A. property situated on So. Philadelphia is easily worth $7,500 was the statement of a leading real estate dealer today. The property consists of three lots, the total of 145 feet on Philadelphia with a depth of 149½ feet to alley. Two of the lots are vacant and are to be developed into a modern playground with baseball diamond, colleyball and basketball court. The other lot is equipped with club house, with assembly rooms, furnished kitchen, showers and dressing room, while at the rear is the swimming pool, 20 by 60 feet; as large as nine-tenths of the swimming pools in large city associations.
Last season, the local committee spent over $300 on the cleaning and painting of the swimming pool and in enlarging the supply pipes, making it possible to keep the pool clean and to fill it completely in less than half the time formerly required. Last summer three different groups of boys, enrolling 108, attended the pool and play-ground three times each week with supervision.
The successful completion of the plan now announced by the committee of having a full-time Y. M. C. A. secretary to reside in Anaheim and supervise and promote a definite program for boys and young men with the above equipment as a center will reach many more boys and at the same time make possible a co-operative program so that the girls and the women of the community may also have the use of the swimming pool and equipment one day each week.

Mr. and Mrs. Charles Fuller of Jackson, Mich., who arrived in California but two weeks ago, were so impressed with the city of Anaheim during one of their motor trips through this section that they immediately purchased the beautiful home of Colonial design at 627 North Lemon street and will take possession at once.
The negotiations for the purchase of this property were made through Harold Clairmont, who represented both persons in the transfer.
WOMAN JUDGE HAS FOUR SAFE RULES
CLEVELAND, April 21. — Judge Florence E. Allen, perhaps America's most widely known woman jurist, has four rules for happy marriages. They are:
1. The wife should have a regular allowance. Money matters cause many divorces.
2. The husband should make a business partner of his wife. She should share his confidence in all matters.
3. The wife should be sympathetic.
4. The wife should never nag her husband. She should work with him.
In the last two terms of court Judge Allen has tried 397 divorce cases, more than have been tried by any other two judges here, in the same period.

PATRIOTIC ORDERS
PLAN FOR MEMORIAL
The American Legion of Anaheim is once more showing its patriotism in sponsoring the Memorial services for May 30. During the last several years Malvern Hill Post, G. A. R. veterans of the Civil War, of Fullerton, have held services in the Anaheim cemetery. This year the G. A. R.'s will assist in the erection of a monument in Loma Vista cemetery, and have voted to hold memorial services and decoration.
That the annual day of remembrance for the Civil War veterans who sleep in the Anaheim cemetery should not be overlooked, the American Legion has made their offer to take care of exercises in that place. That it will not conflict with the Loma Vista services, the hours will be conveniently arranged. The G. A. R.'s, Daughters of Veterans of the Civil War and other patriotic orders may then attend bath programs.
In addition to the program by the American Legion, a monument, being erected thru the efforts of Jalia Ward Howe tent, No. 7, Daughters of Veterans of the Civil War, in the Anaheim cemetery, will be unveiled and dedicated to the memory of the unknown and absent dead of all the wars.
Anaheim citizens will gladly lend a hand in preparation and assistance for the event, under the Legion, quite as willingly as under the auspices of G. A. R. and a program of impressive and beautiful numbers is assured.

CARR JAMES, RETIRES
PARIS, April 21.

MAKING IT PLEASANT TO ATTEND CHURCH
KINGSTON, N.C., April 21.
A roof garden, moving picture show and swimming pool combined will be provided for the congregation of the First Baptist church here, according to members of a committee who had the plan under consideration today.
The pastor, Rev. Lee McBride White, proposed a separate building for the recreational equipment. He will suggest that the building be opened to the public. A radio phone with amplifiers installed in Pastor White's church recently enabled congregations night after night to hear sermons delivered at a distant point by a prominent Baptist divine.

The people of Garden Grove who were instrumental in bringing the Radcliffee chautauqua here this season, are to be congratulated for their efforts in making it possible for the people of this community to avail themselves of attending three days of worth while entertainment. The three days chautauqua closed Monday night, and was attended by a record breaking crowd. Each number of the three days program was of a high standard and was a real treat in the entertainment line. The program above the average of the three years Garden Grove has had a chautauqua; the lectures were all good, and it would be difficult to determine which was the best.
The Coleman Concert Co., The Boston Joy Makers and the Frederick Co., furnished the music and amusement and the various numbers were all heartily encored and made a decided hit with everyone present.
The money to meet the expense was all raised before th last entertainment and about 50 guarantors have signed up for the return of the chautauqua next year.

CAN'T DO THE WORK
It's too much to try to work every day against a constant, dull backache, or sudden darting pain in the small of the back. Be rid of it. Try Doan's Kidney Pills. Your neighbors recommend them.
Mrs. S. B. Kramer, 238 N. Lemon St., Anaheim, says: "An operation weakened my kidneys and about two years ago I began to suffer from pains across the small of my back. My right kidney felt as though it were swollen andached dreadfully. I had dull, dizzy headaches, too. My housework was often neglected. I was so run down and my kidneys didn't act right until I read about Doan's Kidney Pills and used them. I got Doan's at Heying's Pharmacy. They cured me of all signs of the trouble. The backaches left and my kidneys were regulated."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Kidney Pills—the same that Mrs. Kramer had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.Y.
