woMAN's PARLIAMENT
The Semi-Annual Session to Be. Hold
in Ventura Next Week

The thirteenth session of the woman's
parliament of Southern California will
meet in Ventura May and 5. and quite
a number Of Los Angeles women are
preparing to go to the convening Of the
same. While the annual sessions of the
parliament always convene in Los An
geles yet other cities in the seven south
ern counties claim the semi-annual
sessions The Ventura women are max
ing great preparations for this event. and
most delightful welcome will be given to
all who avail themselves of the oppor-
tunity of going. Special rates will be
made by the Southern Pacific for those
attending the parliament.
The officers are as follows: Mrs Kate
Tupper Galpin. president; Mrs. Robert
N. Bulla, secretary; Mrs. Fred Foy.
treasurer; in Ventura, Mrs. Thos. B.
Shepherd is the county vice-president
Mrs. Ida K. Spear, district secre tary.
The program for the parliament takes
up "Out Door Life for Women" 1.-The Cry
of the Little Children" Reading for the
Young" art in the Home" 1.-The Cause
and Prevention of Disease" and other
topics of interest. One of the interesting
features of the parliament is the fact
that it brings together women from all
the seven counties. and this session del
egates from San Luis Obispo, San Diego
San Jacinto, as well as the other coun-
ties, will be present.

MAIN STREET PAVEMENT
Work of Relaying the Asphalt Sur
face Commenced

The work of tearing up the asphalt
surface Of the Main street pavement and
relaying the same, under the direction Of
a special committee Of the city council,
consisting Of Messrs. Nickel, Mathuss
and Toll was commenced yesterday
morning, and by evening half the block
from Eleventh to Twelfth street was
completed. Under the terms of the new
contract under which the work is being
done by ]. M. Farchild, none of the as
phalt now on the street is to be used. The
present surface is simply being ripped
off. broken up and carted away, and the
new surface Of Alcatraz asphalt being
spread. An inspector appointed by the
council committee is supervising the
job, and every load of asphalt is tested
by the thermometer to see that it is of
the required temperature when it is laid
on the concrete base. Two samples Of
the mixture are taken each day, and
they will be preserved for future refer
ence. City Engineer Dockweiler wishes
to devise check by which every load of
asphalt put on the street can be located
and traced, as was done by him on the
cement and other work on the outfall
sewer. and this will probably be ar
ranged. Contractor Fairchild says that,
while he intends to live fully UP to the
specifications, in fact, intends to be on
the safe side. and make an even better
street than is called for, he thinks the
city should have an inspector at the
plant to see the materials mixed, and
one will probably be placed there. AT
the rate at which the work is now pro-
crossing. the street will be finished well
within the contract time.
In connection with street paving, i.
will be Of general interest to know that
a petition will probably be presented at
the next meeting of the council asking
for the paving Of Seventh street from
Main street to Westlake park, with as
phalt. Should this go through, 1t would
be one Of the greatest improvements In
