CITRUS GROWERS ORGANIZING With the avowed purpose of sending a protectionist congressman from the Eleventh District to the National Legislature, one who will see that the proper measure of protection against foreign competition is furnished by the tariff laws to the citrus growers of the district, a citrus league is being quietly organized in Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties, it is announced. It is expected the formal announcement of the organization, together with the names of prominent growers identified with the movement, will be made within a short time. The organization of the league, who decline to permit the use of their names until the formal organization is announced, declare the supreme need of the citrus belt is protection for citrus industries. The national organization has sent word to the citrus growers that there is a definite movement on the part of republicans to treat each congressional district according to its vote, so that if a democrat is sent to congress it will be taken for granted that his constituents do not want a protective tariff. The organization of a citrus league has been afoot for some time, with a number of the more prominent growers. HOME AGAIN AFTER TEN THOUSAND MILE TRIP E. F. Bell Will Spend Holidays With His Family on Lincoln Avenue E. F. Bell, who is a traveling salesman for the Beggs Manufacturing company of Chicago, has returned to his home here after a ten-thousand mile trip through the western portion of the United States and Canada, and expects to spend two months with his family. Five years ago Mr. Bell purchased a 20-acre ranch on Lincoln avenue, expecting to give up traveling and take the world easy the balance of his days, but the call of the road was too strong for him to resist. However he knows that when old age comes upon him or he grows tired of hard work, he has a beautiful home prepared for him in the garden spot of the world, and his twenty acres of Valencias will yield an ample income for himself and family. In addition to oranges Mr. Bell is also experimenting with avocados which, he thinks, will be a profitable crop as soon as the people's appetites are educated to the appreciative point. The taste for avocadas, he says, is an acquired one, and it will require time to cultivate a market for them. Mr. Bell reports business is improving in the territory through which he has been traveling. He will spend the biggest portion of the winter with his family here. ANAHEIM DEFEATS SEAL BEACH Anaheim bowlers won from Seal Beach at the Club pool room Tuesday evening by a close score of 17 pins. Cowan failed to show up, consequently Waldler took his place. Roop of Seal Beach, made the high score, 208, but Vanatta had high av- The organization of a citrus league has been afoot for some time, with a number of the more prominent growers and packers in the citrus belt taking a leading part. A representative attended a meeting of republicans at Riverside Wednesday night, at which time he explained the purposes of the organization to a few prominent republicans who were attending a congress district convention. "The place for us to strike is through congress," he said. "We must send a republican to Washington from this district because we need his assistance. If we send a democrat we know we won't be any better off than we are now and will more likely be in a sorrier plight than ever. We are going at the thing systematically and will spend enough money to educate the people of the district to the vital necessity for voting protection to the industries that have made the district renowned." It is in harmony with the movement in the republican party, for a real republican nominee that the business organization of citrus growers is being formed. Both bodies will move toward a common end—the sending of a republican to congress from the Eleventh district. "WHITE GIFTS FOR THE KING" This is the name of the Christmas service to be given by the Sunday school of the Presbyterian church next Sunday evening. It is unique, and wholly different from anything that has ever been given here before. As Christmas is the celebration of Christ's birthday, the object of this service is to give the members of the school an opportunity to express their love for the King and their devotion to Him through the bringing of their gifts. The classes decide upon the nature of the gifts and the objects or persons to which the gifts are to be made. All are to be white, or at least wrapped in white, and given in the name and for the sake of Christ, the Anaheim bowlers won from Seal Beach at the Club pool room Tuesday evening by a close score of 17 pins. Cowan failed to show up, consequently Waldler took his place. Roop of Seal Beach, made the high score, 208, but Vanatta had high average, 169. The next game will be played at Long Beach on the 21st.

Claes has received a letter from relatives in Germany saying that his brother, who was with the Kelser's army at Verdun, has returned to his home in Westphalia, having had one of his legs shot off in battle. Another brother is with the German army at Riga, and a third is with the invading army in Serbia. A brother-in-law is stationed in Alsace-Lorraine, the exact whereabouts of his position being withheld. Mr. Claes' relatives write As Christmas is the celebration of Christ's birthday, the object of this service is to give the members of the school an opportunity to express their love for the King and their devotion to Him through the bringing of their gifts. The classes decide upon the nature of the gifts and the objects or persons to which the gifts are to be made. All are to be white, or at least wrapped in white, and given in the name and for the sake of Christ, the King. Besides the gift of substance, there will also be the gift of Service—a pledge to some definite line or lines of service to the church for the ensuing year, and the gift of Self, by which act the person accepts Christ as his Savior and gives himself wholly to Him. This is to be a time of self-denial—an unselfish Christmas. The motto of all will be "Others." Teachers will not give presents to scholars, nor scholars to teachers, but together they will give to needy ones and needy causes, for Christ's sake. A very inspiring service is arranged and it is prayerfully hoped that through it all Christ will be exalted and given his rightful place. Anaheim defeated the Hammond Lumber company's ball team Sunday on the high school grounds by a score of 10 to 4. The Hippodromes of Los Angeles are the victims for next Sunday at the same place.

A brother-in-law is stationed in Alsace-Lorraine, the exact whereabouts of his position being withheld.

Before their departure the HIGH SCHOOL PICKUPS By Irma Steadman The first of the series of debates of the Orange County Debating League was held at the high school auditorium and one at Santa Ana last Friday evening in which four champions of the A. U. H. S. contested for honors. The question was chosen twenty-four hours before the debate. It was, "Resolved that the enactment of a Law Providing for Compulsory Profit-Sharing in Addition to Wages Would be Beneficial to the Settlement of the Differences Between Labor and Capital." The debate here was with Fullerton and we were ably represented by Arthur Coons and Dale Quarton. We upheld the affirmative while Fullerton upheld the negative. The debate was excellent on both sides, so that the decision was rather doubtful. However, in the opinion of the judges, Fullerton had the best of a two to one decision. In the Santa Ana debate on the same evening the question was the same, but we upheld the nagative George Kemp and John Bradley were our debaters. They both did excellent work, but we are often apt to strike a little bad luck. They convinced one judge that they had the best argument, but the other two refused to give us the decision. The A. U. H. S. students are proud of the efforts of the boys and are eager for other contests with our opponents.
