POPULAR SISTER RETURNS
Nun of Exceptional Talents, Well
Known Here, Goes to Shorb
Convent

Sister M. Hermann, one of the
founders of Ramona convent at Shorb,
has been made it's superior. Sister Her.
mann left here ten years ago to become
mistress of novices at the Convent of
our Lady OF the Sacred Heart at Oak
land, where she was very popular.
Later she was promoted TO the office
of superior of the provincial house at
Oakland, which position she leaves to
come to Ramona.
Sister Hermann is considered a nun
of exceptional talents. and 1t is largely
through her efforts that the institution
of the Sisters OF the Holy Name on
Lake Merritt. Cal. has attained its
present high standing. Sister M.
Bertha, also one OF the founders OF
Ramona convent. has been sent 10
Oakland to fll the place made vacant
by Sister Hermann. Former pupils OF
Ramona are much pleased over the
fact that Sister Hermann has been re-

There will be no more bills at so much

will be compelled to use it by the me-

Mulholland yesterday. LAS fast as we
can we are putting meters into
every house in the city We are taking

place where water is used is being
equipped with a meter.
I'VE began this about a year ago
and the results so far have been as
tonishing. In the last year we have
probably added 10000 persons to our
population and yet the consumption of
water has been no greater than 1T was
the year before. Many persons who
are in the habit of using city water
freely object to the meter, as they
claim it will cost them more for their

Arthur Let's, proprietor of the Broad

to his home at the Hotel Hollywood.
He was riding a spirited saddler on
his way home from his store, and was
overtaken by two large automobiles

The flashing lamps and snorting
horns of the machines terrified the ami
NAL, and in trying to escape, both
horse and rider went into the ditch.
