provement Society for Do

Special to The Herald
OCEAN PARK, June 12.-Last nights
session of the city council was en-
livened by the presence of numerous
Short Line beach property owners who
wanted to know what was going to be
done toward protecting their holdings
which, regardless of the $40, 900 sea wall
now nearing completion, are not
shielded from the ravages of such tides
as swept the section last week and
which ii is said carried out hundreds
OF tons of gravel.
Mayor Burks, whose interest, it is
said, is accentuated by personal in
vestments, asserts that it was the in
tention of the council to spend about
$500 for the building of ietties, the
plan to be in the nature of a test as to
the possibility of retoning the accre-
tions of incoming tides and protecting
what is left of the beach from further
devastation.
The mayor also explained that it was
the intentions to extend the sea wall
and that the city had other plans in
view for relieving the situation.
The question Of a location for the
proposed city hall building received
consideration, but no definite action
was taken.
On motion a vote of thanks was ex-
tended to Mrs. Frank Stearns, presi-
dent of the Village Improvement So
ciety for her personal efforts and the
work of the society in presenting to the
city an ornamental drinking fountain
The fountain, funds for the purchase OF
which were raised by enterprising
methods, now lies in the railroad depot
and will be set up as soon as a site is
decided on.
Fire Chief Colt was authorized tc
purchase three ladders, and motion
to purchase 1000 feet of fire hose carried
unanimously.
A petition from the Abbot Kinney
company for permission to build piei
convention hall was favorably passed
upon.

SMOKE PIPE OF PEACE
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald
SAN BERNARD1NO, June 12-The
hatchet has been buried between the
Merchants Protective association and
the Santa Fe shop employees, the pipe of
peace being smoked at meeting last
night at which the shopmen's commit
tee was a guest of the merchantsl The
difficulties that have stirred up a great
amount of feeling between the two fac
tlons were thoroughly aired, with the
result that better sentiment pervades
the air.
The merchants adopted resolutions
setting forth their position and express
ing their regret over the past and
promising better for the future. The
shopmen returned the expressions of
good will and all shook hands.
The trouble grew out of the action of
the secret sanction committee of the
merchants organization turning down
the request of the shopmen to be per-
mtted to solicit advertising for the
annual picnic program. a custom that
has prevailed for many years.

Special to The Herald.
PASADENA, June 12--Superintend-
ent Graham is of the opinion that the
opening of next year will see continu-
Gus sessions in the Pasadena high
school. If the attendance Keeps on
growing as it has during the past year
the present accommodations of the high
school building are going to be utterly
inadequate if the present arrangements
are continued.
The plan for continuous sessions
means that about two more peri
DDS will be added to the day stu
dents doing more of their studying ut
their homes and class work continuing
right through the noon hour. 1t would
add at least a third to the capacity of
the high school building according to
Superintendent Graham's estimate.
1t is expected that there will be
gain in the high school next year of Mt
least two hundred, with a freshman
class of three hundred Continuous
sessions is only one of the plans being
considered for the relieving of the ex-
pected crush of the coming year.
