COUPLE STEALS 'AWAY TO TAKE MARRIAGE VOWS THE marriage of Miss Vera Pinkham, of Orangethorpe-ave., to Mr. C. R. Heysel, of La Habra, is the topic of conversation of their friends today, as the plans were kept within their very selves, aside from the three intimate friends who accompanied them, until the ceremony was performed. The young couple, with the Misses Ione Seale, chum of the bride, Norella Matthews and Mr. Clayburn Swift went to the Baptist parsonage in La Habra, and with the Rev. Alvah C. Earley, pastor, repaired to the church where the rites were said at 4:30 yesterday. Returning to the home of the bride, they told the news to her parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. R. Pinkham and received the parental blessing. They will remain there temporarily. As Miss Pinkham, the young lady has been a very popular girl in the community. She attended the Fullerton Grammar school, Fullerton high school two years and completed a course at the Santa Ana business college. She has preferred to remain at home, however, to a business life. She is a member of the Baptist Philathea class and active in all lines of church work. Her parents are well known Orangethorpe ranchers. Mr. Heysel, an oil worker, resides in La Habra and also is prominent in church circles there. They plan a honeymoon trip a little later but keep their destination with the same secrecy they did the wedding plans.

Families in Reunion Beneath a spreading sycamore tree in the yard of the P. T. Adams home at Tustin Saturday evening there gathered 65 members and "in-laws" of four pioneer families for a supper and reunion, Henry L. Adams and family of Anaheim were among the guests. In 1877 came the first of the four families. The head of that family, P. T. Adams, now nearing his nineteenth birthday, was present. P. T. Adams, coming from Texas, settled on the place that is still his home, in 1877. Within a few months, from northern California, came his brother-in-law, H. K. Snow who settled on the place now owned by A. J. Crookshank, immediately north of the Adams ranch. The next year a brother, M. V. Adams, came from Texas, and made his home at Orange, and a few years later came H. C. Snow, a brother of H. K., and his home was made on a ranch adjoining the P. T. Adams ranch on the east. Early in the evening it was recalled by Henry M. Adams, Anaheim, and William B. Snow, Santa Ana, that 40 or more years ago they had packed oranges under the sycamore tree, having a part in an event that is somewhat historic, for it was under this tree that the first carload of oranges shipped from Orange-co was packed. With W. K. Duffy in charge of its preparation, an excellent dinner, including barbecued steaks, was spread on tables under the tree. Children's Party Several little friends of Phyllis Alexander, of 123 North Resh-st., were entertained at her home Saturday in honor of her ninth birthday.

BILLY WHISKERS BY FRANCES TREGO MONTGOMERY Yesterday you remember, the motion picture director was planning to dress Button and Stubby up for a scene in the picture. "Say we dress them up now," he suggested, growing enthusiastic. "and have a dress rehearsal. I'll take them over to the studio and you bring the clothes for them. You will find them up in the wardrobe department. They are clothes we used in that doll film we made, and some of them should just fit this dog and cat. As you go, tell Snub and Nick to find our cats and to bring them to me at once in the studio." "Of all the optimistic men I ever met, Mr. Strobel beats them all to pieces," said Mr. Dates. "He says in an off-hand manner, 'We will do so and so,' though it has never been attempted before, just as if those animals were going to do just what he wanted them to do without any training or preparation whatsoever. He never counts on their natural antipathy to each other, which might hinder them acting the way he wishes." "I'll bet my hat he will never be able to make them act as he wants them to in that scene, and what is more, that a good many people get scratched if he persists in trying to force them." "Oh, Snub!" called Mr. Dates as he saw Snub come out of the stable. "Take all our cats and kittens over to the big studio. Mr. Strobel wants them. Get Nick to help you." About an hour later, when Billy Whiskers was quietly taking a nap in the yard, he heard Stubby barking frantically in the studio and he knew from the sound that he must be greatly excited. "I think I had better go over and see what is up," thought Billy, and this is what he saw: Stubby was chasing an Angora cat around the studio, under painted screens, behind boxes, around tables, over rolls of carpet, between people's legs, until at last the cat run up an artificial tree, where it sat and looked down at the barking dog. Her very looks made everyone laugh, for she wore a white ruffled cap like an old woman's nightcap, and a doll's plaid shawl pinned around her shoulders. When Stubby started to chase her he upset all the other cats who were doing fairly well in their parts. The little kitten, when it saw its mother being chased, jumped out of the baby carriage her mother had been pushing as she walked behind it on her hind legs. But, alas! it forgot it was buttoned up in a baby's long dress. Consequently when it jumped from the carriage the dress tripped it, and in its wild efforts to free itself it became all tangled up in the clothes and went rolling across the floor without a bit of cat showing. All one could see was an animated white ball bounding and rolling along the floor. (We will find out what started all the trouble in the next story and how it turned out.) King's Heralds Elect The King's Heralds had a very happy afternoon Saturday when they met at the home of their superintendent, Mrs. A. E. Collins, Santa Ana-st. She was assisted by Miss Bethel Elliott. As it is planned to make two sections of the society, one for boys, one for girls, only girls were elected to office for the coming term, Marcella Edwards was made president, Leola Felton, secretary, and Jean Newkirk, treasurer and mite box secretary. The cunning little mite boxes distributed were Chinese boats, as the study topic for the year will be on China. Chinese Bob and Betty books, also, were given those who had paid their dues and others will get them as they pay the small sums. Mrs. Collins and Miss Elliott each told a story, then the social hour was declared. After playing indoors and out on the lawn chocolate and cake were served as refreshments. Why Is Hallowe'en? Hallowe'en—known originally as All Hallow Eve and throughout many parts of England as "Nutrracker Night"—is a curious mixture of classic mythology, Drudie beliefs and Christian tenets. On November 1, the Romans celebrated their feast of Pomona, the goddess of fruits and seeds, and it was then that the stores laid up in summer or use in the winter were opened. Hence, the appropriateness of the use of nuts and apples at this time. November 1 or thereabouts was also the date of the great autumn festival to the sun which the Druids celebrated in thanksgiving for their harvest and the beginning of the quarterly periods when confires were lighted in honor of Halloween. It remained, however, for Christianity to give a new name and a new significance to the feast—that of All Hallowed Eve, or as it was afterwards shortened, "Hallowen." The name was applied because of the fact that the night is one eve or vigil of All Saints' Day, November 1. It is interesting to note, however, that the name of the celebration is about the only WALES GUEST OF MOTOR MAGNATE DETROIT, Oct. 14.—The Prince of Wales arrived in Detroit this afternoon to be the guest of Henry Ford. The royal special steamed up to the mammoth Ford Highland Park-bldg and kept on going over a newly laid spur until the plant walls shielded the prince from the hundreds of curious persons who had gathered to see him. Inside, the prince stepped from the train to a platform, where he was greeted by Henry Ford, Edsel Ford and a handful of their guests. A few minutes later the inspection of the plant started. The visit of the prince is entirely private. Plans for entertainment of the prince include a tour of the Ford Motor Co., properties, assembly of a Ford car and a party at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Edsel Ford. Fifteen married couples and seven debutantes have been invited to the Edsel Ford home. There will be a jazz band, and of course, dancing. Orangethorpe P-T. A.

Woodruff, 40, well known as an author and philanthropic worker, ended her life here today in a leap from the second story of her home near Central Park. She had been ill for some time of a tubercular allment. Mrs. Woodruff was born in Selma, Ala. Two nurses had been attending Mrs. Woodruff. They were busy elsewhere when Mrs. Woodruff crept from her bed, flung open a window and plunged to the street. She died shortly after a doctor arrived. Mrs. Woodruff devoted much of her time to efforts to alleviate the suffering of the blind. She had a personal experience with blindness, having lost her sight for two years from illness. "The Lady of the Lighthouse," one of her books, was written for the sake of the sightless. EXPRESS PACKAGE SERVICE OFFERED Service all the way from Los Angeles, San Pedro and Long Beach to San Diego is now provided by the Triangle Express, which has taken over the Boulevard Express. R. E. Campbell, Anaheim representative, called attention also to the fact that his concern has a buyers' service which saves local merchants a trip to the metropolis. A sample of the goods wanted suffices, and the man in charge who has had several years' experience, tours the business district and gets the article ordered. Los Angeles merchants are only too glad to cooperate with the express company in this department. Started in 1914 with one truck, the Triangle Express now has four trucks and trailers entering Anaheim daily; bringing a maximum of 220 tons every 24 hours.
