POOR DIRT ROADS HURT VALUES OF RANCHES IS CLAIM If ranch owners realized the value which is added to their properties by good roads, they would be quicker to get together and deed the necessary rights of way to the county, according to deputies of the County Engineer and Surveyor's office. Possibly as a result part of the Plain Dealer's work, Cerritos avenue between Garden Grove and Nursery avenue has been widened and graded. All it needs now is a coating of gravel to make a splendid road of it. Here are the amounts available in the fiscal year 1922-23 for improvement of dirt roads in various school districts: Katella, $5,327.89 or 16.39 per cent of county taxes, including district road and special school district taxes, but not special district taxes. This is 32 cents on every dollar of an assessed valuation of $1,-664,965. Anaheim—$7,681.46 or 9.14 per cent on an assessed valuation of $2,-400,455. Placentia—$53,531.38 or 10.49 per cent on an assessed valuation of $16,728,555. Centralia—$4,801.38 or 26.36 per cent on $706,085. Commonwealth — $2,948.78 or 10.67 per cent on $921,495.

NEW YORK LETTER (By Lucy Jeanne Price) NEW YORK, Feb. 8.—Never, probably, was there a more dashing proud, splendidly uniformed, group of men than the officers in the army of the Russian Gzar, back in the days when the Czar was Czar, indeed. Two hundred of them arrived here on course, always. Eight hours a day may be all that a woman should work in industry but it's too short a work-day for a college student, decides the board of students at Barnard.

The chorus of about 50 voices helps to make the music fine. Mr. Brotherton's directing shows that he thoroughly understands how to lead the chorus and the audience to do their best. Everybody says that the music is great. Last night the male quartette sang the chorus of a selection. Mr. Brotherton singing the verse, Miss Reaves' solo was enjoyed as usual. Evangelist Vawter is doing great work as an evangelist. His sermons are intensely biblical, bringing a clearer conception of the Old Book. There was baptizing at the beginning of the service. The subject of the evening was "Rolling the Stone Away." Three propositions were offered by the evangelist as follows: (1) God Almighty does a God's work and a God's Work only. (2) God uses humana gency when it is in the realm of human achievement. (3) God needs help, God meaning Deity, Trinity. By a series of Biblical illustrations the first two propositions were easily proven. The evangelist said that God held back the waters of the Red sea for the Israelites to cross but they had to walk across, for they could do that. When they were hungry, God gave them manna but they had to pick it off of the ground. He gave them quail but they had to prepare and cook it. God took down the walls of Jericho but not until they did all that was commanded. Evangelist Vawter asserted that among God's commandments there are no non-essential and said "God pity anyone who says that any commandment whether ordinance or anything else is non-essential." Throughout the series of illustrations it was evident that man had something to do. The evangelist said: "God wants the people of Anaheim saved but the Christians must do their part, in helping save them. He has given us our task to do." Tonight the third proposition will be proven.

With NEW YORK LETTER (By Lucy Jeanne Price) NEW YORK, Feb. 8.—Never, probably, was there a more dashing proud, splendidly uniformed, group of men than the officers in the army of the Russian Czar, back in the days when the Czar was Czar, indeed. Two hundred of them arrived here the other day, in the steerage, humbly with crowds of other immigrants. They were shabbily dressed, some of them still wearing their old uniforms but dulled and ragged with time and wear. They said they had come to the United States looking for jobs and ready to work at anything. Most of them brought their families with them. They seem philosophic about their fortunes, apparently looking upon their gay and prosperous years as past and done with and not to be given too much thought. The club women of this city are going to stand by the constitution, whatever persuasive and insidious forces may try to weaken their support. At the annual convention of the New York City Federation of Women's Clubs the other day, a resolution was passed urging the maintenance of the Lusk bill which requires every teacher in any school in the state to take an oath of allegiance to support the constitution of the United States. There has been some opposition to the law from the more radical forces of the state and some effort is being made to have it repealed. Mrs. William Cumming Story, former president of the Federation and a guest of honor of the convention, in congratulating the Federation upon its work in the past year, expressed her pleasure in the resolution just passed, which "restricted the freedom of thought of no one so long as it was not engaged in an effort to undermine our country and which required only that those who have in their hands the training of our boys and girls shall be loyal to the country for whose citizenship those boys and girls are being trained." Mrs. Story emphasized the danger of subversive and disloyal propaganda in these restless times. William Edgar Smith may have to pay $100,000 because his former marriage "slipped his mind." When he applied for a license to marry the second time, he stated that he had never been married before. His first wife, Mrs. Louise Carter Smith charges that this is a slander upon her and could injure her reputation. Mr. Smith makes no denial of the first marriage but explained to the court that it "just slipped his mind at the time." His first wife was furthermost from his mind, he said, when he applied for this license and that the charge is far-fetched anyhow, because a man who wanted to injure a wife's reputation wouldn't course, always. Eight hours a day may be all that a woman should work in industry but it's too short a work-day for a college student, decides the board of students at Barnard. Ten hours is laid down as a day's work there, eight hours for sleep, two for exercise, and four for "meals and incidental duties at home." No word at all about play, except what would come under "exercise"; no theaterers, no bridge, no beaux—unless maybe beaux are "incidental duties at home." The announcement of the Charity Bail in New York is a tremendously reminiscent thing. For seventy-five years, this ball has been the biggest social event on the calendar; and there are many social memories in three-quarters of a century. The first balls were held in the old Academy of Music on Fourteenth street, known to this generation only as a noisy motion picture theater. But in 1857, it was the height of fashion. The ball continued there for a good many years, even after the neighborhood was not very fashionable, and finally, after an experiment or two elsewhere, moved to the Waldrof-Astoria, where it has continued ever since. There is a traditional Grand March, which has never been given up, and certainly never will be, in spite of all the other changes which the Charity Ball has bowed to in the way of dances. This year's ball will be held next week. It isn't only on the operatic stage that foreign names are adopted as safeguards to prestige. One of the best known costumes for the stage—a young modiste whose creations usually clothe the productions of one of our biggest producers—is known by the very French name of Mlle Yvonne and some more French to it, but she comes from the proud state of Oklahoma. There are some people who never seem to realize when is the moment to keep still. Four stowaways who landed here the other day on a North German Lloyd steamer filed a complaint at Ellis Island, saying that the beds in the ship's brig are too hard and that the work assigned them after they were found was likewise too hard. But they are going back to Europe the same way. The valedictorian of a class of 167 pupils who were graduated the other day in one of our 'way down town public schools was of that race we think of as being super-silent—the Chinese. Yes, it was an almond-eyed belle of Mott street, who took that high honor and the other 166 boys and girls rejoiced with her when the award was announced. There is no whether ordinance or anything else is non-essential." Throughout the series of illustrations it was evident that man had something to do. The evangelist said: "God wants the people of Anaheim saved but the Christians must do their part, in helping save them. He has given us our task to do." Tonight the third proposition will be proven. IN A NICKEL Bishop Woodcock said at a lunch-eon in Louisville: "Where is the world going? With our strikes and lockouts, our Genoa conference and armies of occupation, are we going anywhere at all?" "A colored man got on a trolley car, and then, after a word or two with another passenger, he started to get off again." "Hold on," said the conductor, "What are you getting off so soon for? You haven't paid your fare, either." "Ah wants to go to Snoop street," said the colored man, "and dis gean-man says dah's no sich place." "Well there ain't neither," said the conductor. "Den sholy," said the colored man—Sholy dah's no good mah gwine dar!"

(SpL.)—Albert Brusky, pioneer of Garden Grove, will soon commence erection of a fine store building on his lots on West Euclid, north of the Wilcox restaurant. The building will be a one story structure, with a 50-foot frontage and 85 feet deep, constructed of brick with tile roof. The building will probably be divided into two store rooms.
