DRAMATIC SCENE
AS HUN FLEET
SUBMITS
SEVENTY-ONE GREAT SHIPS OF WAR PASSED THROUGH ALLIED WALLS OF STEEL
ENTIRE GERMAN NAVY, INCLUDING SUBMARINES, NOW INTERNED IN BRITISH PORTS
The most spectacular event of the war was witnessed Thursday off the Firth of Forth, Scotland, when 71 vessels of the German navy surrendered to the Allied fleet. Four hundred Allied warships, including five Americans, were waiting in two lines to receive the Germans as they steamed across the North sea. The lines were fifty miles long. The American vessels were the flagship New York, the Texas, Wyoming, Arkansas and Florida. The Germans passed through between the two lines and were anchored at May Island in the Firth of Forth. The following day they were escorted to the Scapa Flow, where they will be interned until final disposition is made of them.
A correspondent who witnessed the spectacle from Admiral Sir David Beatty's flagship, Queen Elizabeth, describes the scene as follows:
"I watched the scene from the flagship of the British commander in chief. Never has a pageant so majestic."

A correspondent who witnessed the spectacle from Admiral Sir David Beatty's flagship, Queen Elizabeth, describes the scene as follows:
"I watched the scene from the flagship of the British commander in chief. Never has a pageant so majestically demonstrated the might of Britain's navy dominions. Australia, Canada, South Africa and New Zealand has places in the spectacle. American and French warships were there, but above all this it was the day of the British navy supreme reward for its unceasing vigilance and unrelenting, noiseless pressure on the vitals of Germany.
About 8 o'clock the sun shone dimly through a rift in the slate gray clouds. Here and there in the sky lead gray melted into light shades of blue and brick red, but a haze still hung over the water and confined the vision to five or six miles. Somewhere, away to the south, we knew there were ships, but in a line which measured at least fifteen miles, obviously there were ships which were not to be seen. Now and then in the distance one could pick out dimly the outline of a battleship, but to identify it was another matter. So the two lines moved towards the on-coming enemy.
First came the battle cruisers, headed by the Seydlitz, a ship which carries the scars of the Dogger Bank battle of 1915. The Moltke and Hindenburg followed, then the Doerfflinger, also badly battered in the Dogger Bank engagement, and finally the Von der Tann, which, according to report, suffered heavily in the naval air raid on Cuxhaven. On either side moved the Fearless and the Blonde. The nine battleships followed at intervals of three cables. Five ships of the Kaiser class came first, then the Bayern and then the three Koenigs. A mile and a half astern was the King Orrey, and again at the same interval the Phaeton, of the first light cruisers. The Castor, flying the pennant of Commodore Tweedie, commander of the flotilla, and the German destroyers, surrounded by nearly one hundred and fifty British ships, followed.

This bald description of the plan of operation will not convey to the mind any conception of the scene, but it must be placed on permanent record for it indicates the disposition of hostile fleets such as has never been seen before and in all likelihood never will be seen again. The operations were perfect both in organization and execution.
The day came to a peculiarly fitting close. About an hour before noon the commander-in-chief issued the following signal to the fleet and it was received beyond doubt by the Germans:
"The German flag will be hauled down at sunset today (Thursday) and will not be hoisted again without permission."
At 4 o'clock all hands on the Queen Elizabeth were piped aft. They had assembled and were waiting, perhaps, for a speech, when suddenly the bugle rang out, "making sunset." Instantly all turned to the flag and saluted. The next minute cheers for the commander-in-chief were called for and were given with a deafening heartless. Admiral Beatty acknowledged the tribute with a "Thank you," and added, "I always told you they would have to come out."
In the meantime the Germans in seventy-one ships, which lay out of sight in the mist, had undergone the mortification of seeing their flag hauled down, perhaps never to be hoisted again.
The names of the battleships, battle cruisers and light cruisers which surrendered to the Allies have not been announced officially. However, a tele-

RED CROSS NOTES
To make refugee garments instead of surgical dressings is the important change brought about by peace in the bureau of production program. A special appeal has been made to chapters to speed up work for civilian relief overseas. The answer to the Christmas roll call is expected to increase the number of available workers and solve the problem of clothing the destitute of all nations.
One of Kris Kringle's first stops in France Christmas eve will be at the American hospitals. In every ward of every hospital he will find a tree and Red Cross workers waiting to help him fill the soldiers' socks.
Santa Claus, Christmas and the Red Cross roll call come but once a year. The roll call takes place the week of December 16. Speak up, reach down and dig out when your name is called.
More than 30,000 nurses have been enrolled for the army and navy by the American Red Cross.
About one-third of the people in California, Arizona and Nevada are members of the Red Cross. This proportion is not enough to satisfy the western spirit. The Pacific division wants to do things in the biggest, finest way possible. Because it has more members enrolled to the thousand population than any other division in the country does not satisfy either. Only the best is good enough out here in the west, and nothing short of 100% membership in the Red Cross should satisfy any state, city or community in our territory.
The Christmas roll call for universal Red Cross membership is scheduled
MUST NOT RELAX VIGILENCE
Attorney-General Gregory in a letter to the national directors of the American Protective League, called on officers and members of that organization to continue their effective aid and cooperation with the Department of Justice. They were asked especially to watch for and report illegal activities harmful to the public morale during the discussion of peace terms.
"I feel it my duty at the present juncture," said the attorney-general's letter, "to call upon the officers and members of the American Protective League throughout the country to carry on steadfastly for the present their most effective aid and co-operation with the Department of Justice.
"The sudden termination of hostilities has reacted strongly upon the public and there is everywhere evident a desire on the part of patriotic citizens, heretofore intent upon winning the war, to withdraw immediately from war work. Such a course, if generally followed, would involve serious consequences."
"The American Protective League has performed a great task, both in active and passive service. The number of investigations participated in by you, many of which have resulted in the uncovering of serious enemy activities and disloyalties, and the apprehension and prosecution of the individuals concerned, the large number of draft evaders detected, and your many other activities, have been an important factor in winning the war.
"A service of equal value has been the passive but powerful influence exerted by your organization upon alien enemies and disloyal persons. The knowledge upon their part that everywhere about them were the eyes and ears of a great organization auxiliary to the government, raised a fear in
to do things in the biggest, finest way possible. Because it has more members enrolled to the thousand population than any other division in the country does not satisfy either. Only the best is good enough out here in the west, and nothing short of 100% membership in the Red Cross should satisfy any state, city or community in our territory.
The Christmas roll call for universal Red Cross membership is scheduled for the week before Christmas, December 16 to 23. To be an American these days is to account ourselves blest and honored. The only way to be 100% American is to belong to the organized soul of our nation and be listed on the honor roll of those who serve humanity. The thing that put the entire population of the country solidly behind the war was the feeling that we were not in it for any selfish end. Through the Red Cross we have served our way into the confidence and into the hearts of every allied nation. The opportunity for unselfish service is now greater than ever. Even the enemy will realize that the American heart is the national heart, and that in both war and peace we are in fact as well as in name "all for humanity." The Red Cross must mean all America. There must be no weak link in the chain. Universal membership—that's all.
Looks as if the Red Cross will have to extend its canteen service to Berlin.
Lucky canteen workers! Their's is to be the privilege of the last Red Cross service to the boys on their homeward journey. The last good eats—the last seaming coffee—the last smokes and smiles and cheers—the last memory of the blessed uniform—is all to be theirs. Not only lucky, but busy workers they will be, for in addition to two million men overseas, we have a million and a half n camps and cantonments here at home, besides many thousands wounded and convalescing. Canteens at all points of debarkation are making elaborate preparations for this service. The Pacific division bureau of canteen will send out instructions about the decoration of stations and reception of the boys. There will be a genuine western welcome for our boys—and as long as there is a woman left in the service there will not be a single boy who will reach his own home hungry.
One of the many, many things we have to be devoutly thankful for this
pension and prosecution of the individuals concerned, the large number of draft evaders detected, and your many other activities, have been an important factor in winning the war.
"A service of equal value has been the passive but powerful influence exerted by your organization upon alien enemies and disloyal persons. The knowledge upon their part that everywhere about them were the eyes and ears of a great organization auxiliary to the government, raised a fear in their hearts as to the consequences of hostile action, and became a powerful deterrent of enemy and disloyal activities.
"These services cannot yet be dispensed with. Illegal activities harmful to the public morale during the discussion of peace terms must be watched for and reported. Violations of the war statutes, all of which are still in force, must be prosecuted. Pending investigations must be continued and others instituted.
"I sincerely trust that in view of these grave considerations, your members will be aroused to the need of carrying on your work for the immediate future with the fullest degree of efficiency. I earnestly ask your continued aid and co-operation."
BEES BIG NEW INDUSTRY
That bee culture and the production of honey is commanding the attention of the government was indicated by an important conference held in the office of Supervisor R. H. Charlton, at the head of the Angeles National Reserve.
Supervisor Charlton was not present, being confined at his home by an attack of the "flu," but Dr. E. F. Phillips, apiculturist connected with the Department of Agriculture, at Washington, Assistant District Forester L. A. Barrett, of San Francisco, and Supervisors Hall, of the Santa Barbara national reserve, and Tillotson, of the Cleveland national reserve, made up the members of the conference.
For many years there has been a demand for bee ranges in Southern California, and it is intended to make a complete survey of this territory in the hope of locating the places where bees will best thrive—where the feed, cover and frainfall are in proper proportions for the best results from a honey-producing point of view.
There has been a constant and increasing inquiry for bee ranges in the three southern national reserves, with headquarters in San Diego, Los Angeles and Santa Barbara, and it is be
many apiarists have lost valuable stands on account of foul brood.
There is an abundance of white and black sage and orange blossoms, all fine honey makers, but for some reason the average apiarist in this part of the state has not been able to do much in the way of marketing large honey crops.
It is believed that there are sections in Southern California where good conditions obtain, and it is to secure some definite knowledge along this line that the conference was held. The program sought to be carried out is in haruony with the great food problem confronting the country.
They Say
—The motor speed cop has his eye on several local auto drivers who have come dangerously near exceeding the limit, not once but quite often, and have really violated the other motor vehicle laws in one way or another. They had better have a care.
—The oldest inhabitant has taken a peep at the rain chart for some years back and as near as he can figure out the country is in for a wetness this winter. Already the rainfall is above normal and every indication points to a propitious season. The wind quite often recently has blown from the southeast, which portends rain.
—It might be well for citizens to organize a vigilantes committee and pay their respects to the parties who have acquired the habit of carrying off articles that don't belong to them. Numerous burglaries have been committed here the past few months and many citizens favor throwing out the dragnet.
The gale which began blowing about midnight Saturday and continued through Sunday, did considerable damage to flimsy, built structures and

There will be a genuine western welcome for our boys—and as long as there is a woman left in the service there will not be a single boy who will reach his own home hungry.
One of the many, many things we have to be devoutly thankful for this Thanksgiving is that No Man's Land is pre-empted by the Yanks and Fritz will give no more gas parties. When the drive for seeds and shells was called off by Washington and the business of making gas masks discontinued, there was general rejoicing—not only in the bureau of salvage and shop—but throughout the division. Gassing was the most diabolical form of torture emanating from modern warfare, and the Red Cross is truly thankful that the necessity of providing protection against it has been superseded by other forms of humane relief work.
Our goodbye to the flue was without regret. In fact we speeded the parting guest without compunction. The chapters of the Pacific division handled their individual problems during the epidemic in efficient and skillful manner. The work of the women was splendid, noble and self-sacrificing. They rose to all emergencies that came up in a calm, resourceful way that can win for them only the approbation and grateful appreciation of the entire community.
Anton Kluewer, of Anaheim, has petitioned for an order terminating the joint tenancy of himself and Lottie Kluewer in ranch property. R. C. Dutton is attorney for petitioner.
There has been a constant and increasing inquiry for bee ranges in the three southern national reserves, with headquarters in San Diego, Los Angeles and Santa Barbara, and it is believed that when the survey, based on inquiries and investigations conducted by the various forest supervisors, is completed, that the local forest offices will be able to furnish all of the necessary information as to the best locations for been ranges.
The high price of honey, that is now quoted at 45 cents a pint, strained, is inducing many persons to embark in the business, but so far there has been an entire absence of any information as to the most available places for the establishment of bee ranges in Southern California. The meeting was preceded by a similar conference in San Diego Friday, and will be followed by another at Santa Barbara.
In addition to the forest supervisors, a number of local bee men attended the conference. One of the incidents of the meeting was the narration of events connected with the early production of honey in California, when the bee raiser was glad to get 6 cents a pound for his product, and was compelled to haul it to market, as there were no available railroads.
For some reason, the climate of Southern California is not the best adapted for the raising of bees, and the production of a harvest of honey, it is said. Ideal conditions are hot days and damp nights, when the bees work overtime gathering honey. Too
It might be well for citizens to organize a vigilantes committee and pay their respects to the parties who have acquired the habit of carrying off articles that don't belong to them. Numerous burglaries have been committed here the past few months and many citizens favor throwing out the dragnet.
The gale which began blowing about midnight Saturday and continued through Sunday, did considerable damage to filmsily built structures and shade trees throughout the Southland. Weather men, who keep a record of such occurrences, state that it was the highest wind experienced here since 1881—thirty-seven years ago. While it was an extraordinarily blustery spell for Southern California, Sunday would have been considered merely a normal summer's day on the prairies of the Middle West.
County Taxes Delinquent
First installment of County Taxes become delinquent on Monday, December 2nd. All remittances should be mailed in time to reach this office on or before that date. Those who pay at the office should do so if possible, before the last day, thereby avoiding the discomfiture of standing in line. To guard against error and delay, all remittances, whether checks or cash, should be accompanied by tax bill or description of property, care being taken that the bill is for this year, 1918-19, and that check is drawn for the proper amount.
Respectfully,

Tax Collector.

WILHELM DIDN'T INTEND TO STARVE
"How Wilhelm Held Out" is the title of an article in the Franfort Volks Stimme by Wilhelm Carle, a Socialist, who discovered the hoards of provisions which the former emperor had in his Berlin palace.
"The quantity," the writer says, "exceeded all expectations. In large white tiled rooms was everything, literally everything one can imagine in foodstuffs. It is inconceivable that after four years of war such huge quantities could be hoarded. There was meat and game in cold storage, salted provisions in large cases, white meal in sacks piled to the roof, thousands of eggs, gigantic boxes filled with tea, coffee, chocolate, lard, jelly and jam; hundreds of sugar loaves and endless stacks of peas, beans, dried fruits and biscuits. Their value amounts to several hundred thousand marks."
These hoarded foodstuffs cannot be better used than to be preserved as a lasting memorial to our posterity which should see how, while millions in Germany starved, those elected by the grace of God, held out."
