GIVEN SKIN
BY 41
GARDEN GROVE, Dec. 29.(Spl)
—Sacrifice is the essence of the real Christmas spirit. There was immediate response when the call was made for relief of little Ella Hauptman, a patient in the local hospital, who has been a sufferer for five weeks from horrible burns. Doctors realized recovery depended on extensive skin grafting. When the community learned this fact 50 people presented themselves.
After 41 had gladly given their offering it was found sufficient for the present.
Great improvement was shown in 24 hours.

MARBLE FOR INTERIOR OF HALL
City council last night recorded approval of a change in the interior finish of the lobby of the new city hall changing it from cak to marble. The change means additional expense of $5900 out council believes it will be worth it. M. Eugene Durfee, architect, will charge no fee on this item.

CHANGE CITY ASSESSING METHOD
A revolution in the method of assessing city property will be launched immediately in order to be ready by March 1, the city council agreed last night.
This will be done not only to add to the city's revenues upon which there is an increasingly heavy drain with the enormous growth of the city, but to correct wide variance in figures on the tax which authorities have realized for some time have existed.
It is planned to start with what is considered the most valuable corner in the city, one of the four corners at Los Angeles and Center-sts., and grade downward from that.
Council is determined to get as nearly as possible the correct market Wedded 36 Years, Die Together
LOS ANGELES, Dec. 29. After living together for 36 years as man and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Dill died together today at their home, 242 Grand avenue, Long Beach. Worry over the condition of his wife, who had been suffering from a cerebral hemorrhage since last Tuesday is believed to have caused the death of Mr. Dill at 3 o'clock this morning. Her demise followed at 5 o'clock.
Neighbors in Long Beach long had regarded the married life of this couple as an ideal example of the marital state. On Dec. 11, Mr. and Mrs. Dill celebrated their thirty-sixth wedding anniversary. Mr. Dill was 67 years old, while his wife, Lille Dill, was 62. They move to Long Beach from South Dakota 16 years ago.
MODERN CAR
The change means additional expense of $5900 but council believes it will be worth it. M. Eugene Durfee, architect, will charge no fee on this item.
The C. of C. is ready to purchase for about $800 a large electrical sign to be placed on the city's concrete water tower on So. Los Angeles-st provided council thinks the tower can stand the strain. A representative of the Electrical Products Corp. with whom the C. of C. is dickering, stated the sign was 34 feet long, readable on both sides with letters five feet high and with framework would weigh about 1200 pounds. The letters spell "Anaheim" and would be seen for miles.
City Manager Steward stated the wind stress of a 70-mile gale, which he had never seen here, is about 40 pounds to the square foot. Each letter in the sign would be about 15 feet square. He estimated the ordinary Santa Ana wind at 30 to 35 miles with a stress of 10 pounds to the square foot.
A petition was presented from A. A. Mills and other property owners asking that North-st be paved when the Mills tract is improved. The petition was filed, pending the laying of preliminary service mains. It is planned to pave the Mills tract with 'black stuff' and not use a concrete base.

No protests being heard, council ordered in alley between West Southst and W. Broad-st.
Council ordered recorded deeds from A. A. Mills and W. B. Allen for alley in new subdivision, conditional last night.
This will be done not only to add to the city's revenues upon which there is an increasingly heavy drain with the enormous growth of the city, but to correct wide variance in figures on the tax which authorities have realized for some time have existed.
It is planned to start with what is considered the most valuable corner in the city, one of the four corners at Los Angeles and Center-st., and grade downward from that.
Council is determined to get as nearly as possible the correct market value of each piece of property in the city and then fix the assessment at a per cent of that figure, probably 50 per cent.
Councilmen last night cited instances of recent sales of property at $3500 which were assessed at $400.
It was agreed that a conference be held immediately between a group of men qualified to tell property values for starting points in the new assessing.
City Clerk Ed. Merritt protested that the work of city assessor should be transferred to the city manager's department. City Attorney H. V. Weisel was instructed to render an opinion on the legality of this in a sixth class city which has always been considered to attach the office with that of city clerk.

FULLERTON 'HET UP' BY POLICE CHANGE
A large number of Fullerton merchants under the chairmanship of J. R. Carhart, former mayor, have formed a committee to protest against the removal of "Barney" Barnhill, motor traffic officer, whose resignation was announced yesterday.
Arthur Eells, city marshal, is said to have demanded Barnhill to sever his connections with the police force. The difficulty arose, it is said, over differences of opinion as to how a motor cop should conduct himself towards the public.
It is alleged that he was too popular.
The committee says that Barnhill was made the "goat" for mistakes made by others of the department, and they plan to appear before the "city dads" Tuesday night and ask that the council demand Marshall Eells explain the true reason for his dismissal. Barnhill says that Eells is a square shooter and that there is nothing personal about the dismissal, but simply a difference of opinio
the various park features so they can be erected without unnecessary damage to the young shrubbery.

More than 10,000 gallons of liquor have been dumped into the gutters of Orange-Co., during his eight years of office by Sheriff C. E. Jackson, Jackson said today in response to questions. Of this total, wine has been the largest item with home brew beer second.

FIVE TO HANG FOR MER ROUGE MURDERS
MER ROUGE, Dec. 29.—At least five persons will go to the gallows for the mob murders of Mer Rouge.
This is the confident assertion of the authorities here today, following the obtaining of not less than seven confessions.
Immunity has been granted those who confessed, but the principal actors in the drama of death are clearly pointed to and will get no mercy, it is stated.

CITY TO START NEW YEAR BY EXTENSION OF LIMITS
Plans for the largest extension of the city limits ever made by Anaheim were approved by the city council last night. About 300 acres to the north and west of the city's present boundary lines will be taken in.
It is estimated there are 33 voters in the territory. Petitions for the annexation have been signed by 21 and it is known that some others favor the move. In order to expedite matters, the council will meet in adjourned session next Thursday when steps to call the election will be taken. The election will probably be held Feb. 13.
One of the most important features of the extension will be the inclusion of the Mexican colony of about 60 families at the head of Lemon-st. Leading citizens have felt for a long time that the city must sooner or later include this territory for the best of colony and city.

The street dance is an affair with two purposes—the one to celebrate the completion of the paving of Clementine-st., and the other to celebrate the passing of the old year, the year that has brought great growth and prosperity to the merchants and businesses in general, in Anaheim.
The dancing will take place between Center and Oak-sts., on Clementine-st., and at 9 o'clock that section of the street will be roped off. Permission from the city has been extended to do this, and the business men in that section of the city lavite everybody to attend the concert and dance and make merry, with their best wishes for a Happy and Prosperous New Year.
HAVE YOU TRIED FOR $25.00 PRIZE?

"I am certain we are going to get some excellent contributions now," said Mr. Danz.
Here is a poem submitted by Lenora Healton, 423 S. Melrose-st:
Dear Anaheim, my love sublime,
All learn to love who meet her;
For miles around there's not a town
With a name that's any sweeter,
Dear Anaheim, for those I pine
No matter where I wander;
There's not a name that's grown to fame
Of which I'm any fonder.
Dear Anaheim, old Father Time
PHYSICIANS WARNED BY DISTRICT ATTY.
Physicians who prescribe intoxicating liquor to patients without real cause will have their prescription blanks taken away from them and their "prescribability" limited or ended hereafter in Orange-co. In other words, the law will be enforced, District Attorney A. P. Nelson said today.
Heretofore, said Nelson, Federal officials only have had the right to prosecute physicians found guilty.
The Federal officers still will follow up such cases, and in fact a special agents has been assigned to this work.
Nelson said he knew nothing of the case of Dr. Arthur H. Domann of Orange, said to be the first physician in the county to be discovered dispensing liquor illegally. He is charged with using the names of various relatives. Nelson said the case was being prosecuted under an Orange city ordinance.
$7,000,000 CITRUS CROP
A total of $7,023,584.21 worth of citrus fruits were shipped thru the No. Orange-Co. Citrus Exchange during 1922, according to the annual report of Dale King, president, made public today.
This includes oranges, lemons, grapefruit and miscellaneous shipments and is only for those packing houses in the northern half of the county shipping thru the exchange.
Because of frost and other impediments this total is not so large as last year. However, it is said that tabulation of other packing houses would just about double this report.
Miss A. Klatt of Santa Ana is a patient at the local sanitarium.
WHY IS THIS WRONG?
What two mistakes is this man making?
The answer will be found among today's want ads.
