SEVEN-REEL WAR FILM TWO DAYS The seventh war film will be shown two nights and special matinees for school children, it was announced today. "Number of Action" is being put on under the suspices of the local post. It is a U.S. Gov. film only recently released by the War Dept. and shows actual fighting scenes of the 40th Division also showing scenes of the 40th Division never offered to the public in California. This movie, showing the life of the American doughboy as it actually existed in the recent world war, will bring the war home to the residents. If the endorsement of the federal government and press reports mean anything, Nor is the life of the gallant doughboy now generally credited with turning back the German tide that threatened to engulf the grater part of Europe. The only phase of the titanic struggle shown in this picture. Two striking exceptions will serve to illustrate: one then shows Quentin Roosevelt preparing to take off on his last flight. The picture was taken about ten minutes before the son of the great ex-President flew to his death. Another shows Eddie Kickenbacker American ace-of-oees, bringing down a German plane. In view of the fact that the 15th and 40th Divisions and the Navy's action is featured in these pictures, they should have a peculiar appeal for all residents of this section because they show California and Anaheim boys fighting for Old Glory. Action—plenty of action, thrills of every kind of degree and intensity are to be found in these official government pictures. They were made right in the heat of battles in France and Germany during the summer and fall of 1918. They constitute the most remarkable record of America's participation in the great conflict.

Authorities today were investigating the death of two miners yesterday at Mine No. 8 of the Northwest Improvement Co. at Roslyn, where the lives of the pair were snuffed out in one of the strangest accidents in the history of the industry. The dead: Cecil Miller, 45, and Cyril Randall, 30. Miller and Randall were burned to death when a forest fire some distance from the mine apparently ignited a vein of coal, sending smoke, gas and fire down into the mine thru a ventilator. No one knew there was a fire in the mine until after the two men were missed when the 200 miners were checked out at 5:20 o'clock. Rescue crews who were sent to search for the men discovered the fire and the burned bodies of the two men. FATALLY BURNED SAN FRANCISCO, June 4—Harold C.

POSTAL PAYROLL INCREASED $4800 The Anaheim postoffice's payroll will be increased by $4800, not including three or four rentper mile allowance for transportation to rural carriers, if the new federal appropriation is passed it was declared at the office today. Sixteen clerks and city carriers will receive $25 per month more or $200 per year. All of these men, and the rural carriers also live in Anaheim or the Anaheim district—most of them in the city itself. The advances have been pruned down during the progress of the bill thru congress, but a respectable boost still is left. The boost to the rural carriers, who own their own vehicles, should be fully as great. Most of this money will go into circulation in Anaheim. Not long ago Postmaster J. H. Whitaker obtained the money to defray upkeep of bicycles for local carriers. ATTORNEY BRIDGE WEBSTER CO.

Mail from Los Angeles can be taken to San Francisco or Salt Lake City by train. It is expected, however, that before long Los Angeles will have a plane plying to Salt Lake City and back.
