Died at Santa Anna, Calif., June 20, 1015. Paul was the son o f Robert S. and Alice B, Anderson and the brother o f Mrs. Herbert W. Walker. A t the age o f twelve he came with his parents to Santa Anna, and took his place among the followers of Christ in the United Presbyterian church. He became an active mem-* ber in the Intermediate society and with it moved up into the Cliristian Endeavor society as one o f the work­ ers. • , A fter graduating from our city high school iri' 1914 he entered the freshman class Of Pomona College last September and completed the. year’s work with credit, as the fol­ lowing words from the pen o f Presi­ dent James A , Blaisdale testify: "He made fo r himself a large place In our college l if e .. He was uniform­ ly recognized as a man o f ability, quality and character. Easily one o f the leading members o f the fresh­ man class, he became an influential Man in the whole college life and we had looked forward with satisfaction to what he should be arid do in the davs to come. * * * It is rare indeed that a young man combines the qualities which were all so evi­ dent in Paul. The variety o f hift abilities led him into touch with an unusually large company o f friend* and as a whole ..college we mourn his passing.” * Paul was bright and breezy -as a companion; loyal and loving and loving as a friend; tender and thoughtful as a son; faithful and fervent* as a Christian, A brawny body, ft master mind and a saved soul made Paul a brother beloved and his sudden death a shock severe, yet we know5that his death has en­ larged the sphere o f Ijis life and deepened the Influence o f his char­ acter. 1 | Rem ember the W e t andD ry meet- lin g a t the Opera H ouse a t 7:80 Sab- jba tk evening, Btroug. speakers ifrom the M.

The. regular meeting "of -the hoard o f education was held last Friday •at Which time various matters per­ taining to the opening o f school aqd the building project were under dis­ cussion. I t was decided to open school on Monday morning in town and town­ ship but fq r one half day during when the bell rings Monday. There was a payment o f 8800 made : op- the O, L . Smith land recently bargained* for. Members Johnson and Smith voted against this pay­ ment on the- grounds that the land had .not been surveyed or title had not been examined. Members Stor­ mont, IJamman and Collins voted for the samel There is still a bal­ ance o f .$3,000 yet to be paid. The board,-went to Dayton Monday1 to, inspect several buildings at the in­ vitation o f brick- companies. It has developed that the board can not make final selection o f brick as the specifications places tins in the hands o f the architect. The hoard can do nothing-more than recommend one or more selections. - ■ The most important question be­ fore the board at this time and one that is serious is the question o f drainage and sewerage disposal. Several propositions have been made but the board has discovered that there is some difference between soil drainage and sewerage. The former can be forced but the latter cannot, A petition was circulated Wed­ nesday among property owners in the northeast part o f town asking them to Sign fo r a new township ditch. While a few signed many would not in that the present ditch was as­ sessed against the property several years ago.. Should the trustees act on this petition.it will mean that the property owners will be compelled to pay for a drain fo r the school board. Wednesday evening Mr, Collins met with members' o f the street com­ mittee and township trustees fo r a solution o f drainage question. The fact developed that the board was asking for assistance to handle sew­ erage and that already one or two private parties were to . have con­ nections along with the school house. The trustees were not inclined to force any expense on property own­ ers fo r a new drain and When it came to providing for sewerage they had no power to act. The cost o f the proposed drain was estimated from ?500 to $1,000 which would be a bur­ den on property owners. The street committee would not grant, the use o f the streets fo r sewerage unless the property owners i ivere satisfied and that hard burned tile with ce­ mented joints must be used. This to be on condition that the state hoard o f health would permit the emptying o f sewerage in the creek. It was then decided that the state board o f health be asked to make an investigation before other action was taken. . , . With the problem o f street closing still unsettled, no sewerage outlet, excavation started for the building $3, 00 paid on a site and $1,000 yet due, has caused a good, many people to comment on the action o f the board as getting the "cart before the horse.” SHOULD BE WELCOMED. The Board of Education will ask the State Board of Health to make a local investigation as to sewerage dis­ posal. A s there arc a number o f places about town that have beep, held to be unsanitary property own­ er,'! rshould take it upon them- Helves to place such matter be­ fore the iffate board. Such things should lie welcomed m any ’ community as they have to do with the health o f our people.
