WHEN THRU WITH YOUR PLAIN DEALER, MAIL IT TO EASTERN FRIENDS—IT MAY BRING THEM TO ANAHEIM, FASTEST GROWING CITY IN ORANGE COUNTY. PLAIN LEADING N VOL. XXVI—NO. 21. 6 CHILDREN SH HURRYWORK ON LEVEE PROJECT Contractors Nail First Planking on Piles Yesterday Afternoon Redoubling their pace as the work has progressed, T. E. Hill & Company of Los Angeles, contractors for the Anaheim protection levee along the Santa Ana river, now are driving approximately 35 piles per day. The first planking connecting the piles was nailed down yesterday afternoon George Bender, inspector for the subscribers' committee, said that the pling was all to be in place by Oct. 1. This is the final date allowed theractors, but according to C. M. Clingshead of the committee, the latter is not disposed to enforce the time limit absolutely, inasmuch as The Plain Dealer has found a humorist who does what the movies do. He tells funny stories by means of pictures. He uses no words. He has something absolutely new and original. Watch for—Striebel's "Pantomime" HALL IS NOT OUT ENOUGH TO BOTHER The new city hall will not extend far enough beyond the building line into Cechter-nt to bother anybody, according to M. Eugene Durfee, architect. OUT ENOUGH TO BOTHER The new city hall will not extend far enough beyond the building line into Cehler-st to bother anybody, according to M. Eugene Durfee, architect. "The main part of the city hall will conform to the regular building line," said Durfee. "Only the big columns at the main entrance will protrude six inches while the base for this feature will extend a little further." "This matter was gone into the hollow by the city council. To keep the feature from extending onto the sidewalk, it would have been necessary to have placed the main part of the building back of the property line and this would have exposed the rough wall of the Kraemer-bldg to the east. "As it is, the columns will line up with the building to the east of the Kraemer block." "On the Claudina-st side, the municipal building does not adjoin any other structure and it was not necessary to extend beyond the property line the features at the two openings on that street." "I do not think the council has done anything that wouldn't be permitted private builders or that is in conflict with ordinances of this or other cities." MAY CUT RATE ON INDUSTRIAL GAS The So. Co. Gas Co. is expected to reduce its industrial rates on natural gas if the request of So. Calif. Gas Co. that cuts by producers be permitted this winter. The Southern California Gas Company is acting for the producers, the latter say, and its action follows the drop in the price of crude oil, which enables the oil gas producers to lower their rates. The cut in industrial or commercial rates would not affect domestic rates. An official of the Southern California Gas Company said today that his company made a cut some time ago. The new schedule of prices for natural gas, based upon crude oil at $1.00 per barrel, would be 25 cents per 1,000 cubic feet with a monthly guarantee of $175; 20 cents per 1,000 cubic feet, monthly guarantee $200; and 17½ cents, guarantee $300. ANNOUNCEMENTS SCHOOL Teachers of the P. school held their first year this afternoon opening Monday. Two teachers yet toulty has been announced Marcey as follow: Kisdergarten: Genevieve Morrison ham.

Seventh grade: Aurora Hunt, Esthe Eighth grade: Frances Walker, W. Special: Dorothy mary music; H. training; Miriam Joence; Maryvin E. D. and physical train Pierce, art; Joz Ling; Dorothy Hunt training; Alma nurse. The efficiency of the protection work when finished will be as nearly perfect as can be imagined. The space between the piling and the grade has been divided off into sections about 90 feet long, so that even if the water finds lodgment, as it is bound to do, it will be shut off and not get beyond the grade. An additional pile at the interval mentioned has been driven into the grade itself, and these piles will be connected with those opposite in the regular line of piling. The thousands of sandbags laid last winter still are in a good state of preservation and will provide an outside barrage for a considerable distance against any possible, but very unlikely outbreak of the river. EPISCOPAL MISSION AT LAGUNA BEACH Through the effort of Rev. Percy W. Clarkson, rector of Trinity church of Orange, and Episcopal mission has been organized at Laguna Beach and plans for construction of a mission church are already under way. There has never been an organization of this denomination in the sea-side city, and its establishment met the approval of a laure congregation which pledged support. Rev. Clarkson has promised to give two services each month to the new church and other ministers will be found for alternating meetings. A mission has also been established in Fullerton an d prospects are right for a well organized church in that city in the near future. INSTALLATION OF METERS JUMPS With 49 light meters installed during August compared with 27 a year ago and a total of 332 for the eight months of this year against 256 for the corresponding period of last, Anaheim's population still appears to be growing.

G. Lewis, general manager of the Palos Verdes project has asked Secretary Malcom Fraser of the C. of C., to contribute "a comprehensive article not too long, with photographs, giving the best information regarding your city of Anaheim, its advantages, development, etc. I will be pleased to make it one of the features of this issue, with my compliments." The article will cost nothing. Probably half a million copies of this magazine, which is printed by the rotogravure process, will be issued, Lewis writes. MESSIAS RESIGNS FROM ST. MIGHAEL'S At a meeting of the vestry of St. Michael's Episcopal church the resignation of Rev. G. R. Messias was accepted with regrets. Mr. Messias will retire from the ministry for a few years, going into private life on account of his health. No one has been selected to fill the vacancy at present, as Rev. Messias will remain until Oct. 1, after which a supply will be furnished until a permanent rector is secured. The Messias family, consisting of Rev. and Mrs. Messias and their daughter, Miss Priscilla, have been residents of Anaheim for six years, all of which time the former has served most successfully as rector of the parish, and it is with regret that his physical condition has made the change necessary.

AIN SHOT DOWN BY A TARIF VITAL TO WALNUT GROWERS Record Crop of Foreign Nuts Soon Will Flood Market California walnut growers, in spite of their unusually large crop, will have something to think about unless the new tariff bill becomes law within five or six weeks. The French and Italian crops are reported double those of 1921 and the nuts are of unusually large size and quality, according to cables reaching the California Walnut Growers' Asso. French walnuts can be delivered to New York for 15½ cents and Italian for one or two cents more than this. The Italian nuts are expected in New York in October. 44 TEACHERS INGRAMMAR SCHOOLS Two New Buildings Used For First Time Monday Morning The grammar schools of Anaheim will open Monday, Sept. 11, at 9 o'clock, with a corps of 44 teachers.

Ruggles, both 57, today are en route for California, where Mr. Ruggles will get a "fresh start" in his legal practice and Mrs. Ruggles will get well. That's the bare news. The romantic side of their trip to California was disclosed yesterday when the two appeared before Marriage License Clerk Louis Gelmer, who registered interest. "We were divorced less than a year ago in Dayton," Mr. Ruggles, a St. Linos attorney, explained. "It was to have been for good—our separation. But Anna became ill and the doctor told her she'd have to go to California if she wished to save her life. Well, somebody had to take care of her and when I'd married her I'd pledged to stand by her in sickness as well as health. So here we are."

The recorder declares glaring head lights and similar evils are too prevalent.In his opinion swaying spotlights constitute an evil almost as dangerous as the other. "The state should devise some lens that would fulfill all requirements,and make it a misdemeanor for an owner not to have them"said Brown."Put them on sale at cost plus enough to make the department self-supporting",he urged. Judge Brown quoted Section 13 article 1 of the State vehicle law as amended in 1921 which has this to say regarding spotlights."The term 'spotlight' as used herein shall denote any light fastened to the windshield,the windshield support or top of a motor vehicle,the rays of which are projected forward except side lights,dof not exceed four candle power. "All spotlights used upon motor vehicles shall be so construed or arranged that no portion of the main substantially parallel beam of light when measured one hundred feet or more ahead of said lights shall rise or shall be capable of being raised from driver's seat to more than forty-two inches above the level surface upon which the vehicle stands directly ahead of such vehicle." 30 TRAFFIC CASES BEFORE JUDGE COY OILMAN'S FINGER PAINFULLY INJURED Harvey Gilbert, of North Philadelphia-st, is nursing a very sore finger. While on duty as a rotary driller on Signal Hill a board slipped from its lodgings, striking him across the index finger of the right hand, breaking the bone just below the first knuckle. The surgeon has forbidden his working for three weeks. Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert will move from Anaheim Sept. 10 to make their home in Long Beach. BLAZE TIES UP STREET CAR TRAFFIC LOS ANGELES, Sept. 7. — Fire which totally destroyed a restaurant at 4800 Huntington drive early today, completely blocked street car and automobile traffic between Los Angeles and cities on the northeast and caused many persons to be late for work. The fire started when a pan of grease was ignited and spread to the walls of the restaurant. In spite of efforts of the firemen the flames consumed the entire structure, which was valued at $2,000. BRITISH RUSH TO HEAD OFF TURK ARMY CONSTANTINOPE, Sept. 7. — Great Britain has sent Field Marshal Lord Plumer, famed World War commander, to take charge of the defense of Constantinople, threatened with attack by victorious Turks under Mustapha Kemal.

TO PASS ON LEASE LOS ANGELES, Sept. 7. — Testimony given before the county grand jury in its investigation of the proposed leasing of 10 acres of land at Whites Point, under the guns of Fort MacArthur, to a Japanese syndicate, was forwarded today to Attorney General Webb. The grand jury investigation developed that Fuero Tojuero, a Japanese, already holds a lease for one acre of the land and Webb will study the case to nd means of breaking Tojuero's lease. All spotlights used upon motor vehicles shall be so construed or arranged that no portion of the main substantially parallel beam of light when measured one hundred feet or more ahead of said lights shall rise or shall be capable of being raised from driver's seat to more than forty-two inches above the level surface upon which the vehicle stands directly ahead of such vehicle. 30 TRAFFIC CASES BEFORE JUDGE COX Thirty or forty complaints against traffic violators were filed with Justice J. B. Cox in Santa Ana today, the grist of three or four days' work by the motorcycle officer and police. Even Judge Cox rarely has seen so many complaints at one time. Sunday and Labor Day motoring activities are responsible. Regarding the glaring headlight evil, Judge Cox said motorists couldn't be altogether blamed hitherto because they had had no stations capable of examining their lights. Now, however, Santa Ana has three such stations, established by the Orange County Auto Trades Association on authorization by the State Motor Vehicle Department. PATRICIDE GRIEVES WHEN MOTHER CALLS KANSAS CITY, Mo., Sept. 7. — Roy B. Garvey, 35 years old, who shot and killed his father, J. W. Garvey, an insurance broker, after he had discharged Mrs. Helen S.

DESIRE DELAY IN PHILLIPS TRIAL LOS ANGELES, Sept. 7.—The request for a postponement of her trial, set for Sept. 18, which it appears Mrs. Clara Phillins, charged with the "hammer murder" of Mrs. Alberta Meadows, will be compelled to make because of her action in dismissing her attorneys, will be strenuously opposed by the district attorney's office, it was learned today. Chief Deputy District Attorney W. C. Doran announced that any attempt by Mrs. Phillips to obtain a continuance of her case to enable her to have more time in which to prepare her defense will be fought by the prosecution. With her trial only 11 days away, Mrs. Phillips was without attorneys to represent her today.

SHERIFF'S OFFICE HUNTS HOLDUP MEN A report was received by the sheriff's office today that a hold-up was staged this morning at San Diego by LOADING OF REEFERS Following recommendations made by the California Fruit Growers' Exchange directors yesterday, various exchange members today began to load cars considerably heavier in order to conserve space in the face of the car shortage. By loading instead of six boxes to the row 65 more boxes to the car can be shipped or nearly 17 per cent. If, in addition, the load is "decked." 80 to 100 boxes more can be put into a car. The grape crop this year amounts to approximately 40,000 cars and a car shortage is anticipated for the next month or six weeks. The heavy crop of deciduous fruits has not simplified the problem of the Pacific Fruit Express. The associations affiliated with the exchange always have been permitted to load "light" or "heavy" cars, as conditions demanded, or even "deck" the load if they liked. But the practice of loading heavy is exceptional, and of "decking" still more so. The fruit, if packed heavily, doesn't keep so well, managers say, and some markets prefer light loads to reavy. HARDWARE DEALERS MEET IN FEBRUARY Fullerton is to be the meeting place of the annual convention of the So. Cal. Hardware Dealers' Ass'n in February, according to Gurman Hoppe, E. W.
