Orange Packers Speed Up for Contest Even busy movledom is interested in the coming contest to select the world's champion orange packer, to be held at the California Valencia Orange Show, May 19 to 28, at Anaheim. Here is pretty Mary McAllister, one of the 1927 baby stars, who was caught by the cameraman, doing her bit by holding the stop watch on a packer practicing for the event. More than two tons of oranges can be wrapped and packed in a day, it is disclosed as practice contests are getting under way in dozens of California packing houses in anticipation of the contest at the California Valencia Orange Show at Anaheim, May 19 to 28, when the world's champion orange packer is to be selected. According to packing house figures, a packer can average between 65 and 70 boxes of oranges a day, but some can pack as high as 90, the number of boxes depending upon the style of pack. There are 72 pounds to a box or approximately 5000 pounds in the average day's work of the packer. From five to eight minutes are required to pack a box, but that time will be cut down considerably during the contest, it is believed. Just as the cameraman popped into one of Orange county's - 30 packing houses in search of contenders for the world's champion orange packing crown, he spied Miss Mary McAllister, Wampus star of 1927, timing one of the packers, who is anxious to improve on her record in anticipation of the coming contest. Edison Company United States district attorney and California representative on the national France committee, who is now in the Edison Company Reduces Its Rates Beginning July 1, Consumers Will Save 14 Pct. on Juice Acting on its belief that a lowering of the maximum lighting rate to users of electric service would stimulate sales for household purposes and thus reduce service costs, the Southern California Edison Company, after consultation with the railroad commission of California in an informal conference, and with its approval, has decided to make an experiment along this line. R. H. Ballard, executive vice-president and general manager of the Edison company, following a discussion with the engineering staff, announced the plan will be put into effect on July 1, 1927. At the present time the maximum rate for lighting and general household use on the lines of the Edison company in Southern California is 6½ cents per kilowatt hour. Under the experimental plan this will be reduced to 5.6 cents, a reduction of 14 per cent. In the San Joaquin valley territory, the present 7-cent rate will be reduced to 6 cents. These reductions will apply to all of the company's 365,000 domestic, agricultural and industrial consumers. It is proposed to try the plan for one year after which a careful check will be made to see if the estimates made by the railroad commission have proven correct. "Consumption often increases when prices are reduced, and we hope this will prove true in this case," said Ezra W. Decoto, president of the railroad commission, following the conference. "Much of the cost of supplying electricity to residences consists of the fixed charges on connection investment and the expenses of meter reading, bookkeeping and collecting. These charges are just the same in the case of a house using 10 kilowatt hours during the month as in one taking forty or more kilowatt hours. If you can encourage the small household to use more electricity by reducing the price, the additional expense to the company should be negligible and the housewife will benefit by the substitution of more electricity for her own muscular energy." "We welcome the opportunity to make this experiment," said Ballard, speaking for the Southern California Edison Company. "The lower rates will affect 365,000 consumers, reaching every corner of our territory." United States district attorney and California representative on the national France committee, who is now in the East. The California delegation will make use of six special trains, three leaving San Francisco and three from Los Angeles. They will be known as the red, white and blue specials and will be carried by the Southern Pacific railroad on September 3. The Californians, according to Hatfield, will be the first American contingent to "invade" France, and elaborate plans are being perfected by the department to display in the big convention parade the resources and products of California. Senator Samuel M. Shortridge is chairman of the state wide citizens' committee, formed to assist the veterans in putting over their barrage of advertising the Golden State. Plans are being perfected for the meeting of the state executive committee of the American Legion which will convene at Los Angeles Sunday next, according to Leon V. McCardle, commander of the Los Angeles county council. Delegates from the 22 districts of the state will be entertained on the preceding Saturday by an automobile tour of the county, followed by a dinner and dance arranged for by the Legionnaires of Santa Monica. California members of the American Legion have been highly commended for their aid extended to the Mississippi valley flood sufferers, according to Dr. John F. Slavich, state commander of the World war veterans' organization. In a message just received from National Commander Howard P. Savage, the California department was among the first to send financial help to their stricken comrades. "Your generous and timely response," writes Savage, "in the face of this appalling catastrophe is highly gratifying and demonstrates again the understanding and good will of our California comrades. The splendid state-wide co-operation of your posts with the Red Cross chapters as well, is most commendable. California has again nobly responded in the time of need." Instructions regarding the proper observation of Memorial Day by the 300 posts of the American Legion have been sent to all units by Eugene D. Bennett, state chairman of the World war veterans' Americanism commission. "Memorial Day or Decoration Day," Bennett's statement to the Legionnaires remarks, "was first conceived and instituted by the Grand Army of the Republic. For half a century they rightfully have taken the lead in its observance." charges are just the same in the case of a house using 10 kilowatt hours during the month as in one taking forty or more kilowatt hours. If you can encourage the small household to use more electricity by reducing the price, the additional expense to the company should be negligible and the housewife will benefit by the substitution of more electricity for her own muscular energy. "We welcome the opportunity to make this experiment," said Ballard, speaking for the Southern California Edison Company. "The lower rates will affect 365,000 consumers, reaching every corner of our territory, as our lighting rates are uniform with exactly the same charges for the farmer in the agricultural centers as are applied in the cities and industrial sections. "A few years ago electricity was used in residences only at night, but the increased use of washing machines, ironers, vacuum cleaners, refrigerators and small appliances had the effect of spreading out the demand, making reductions in lighting rates possible from time to time. Eastern visitors consider our present rates unusually low, but we are glad to give domestic consumers the opportunity to make them still lower. Whether or not this experimental rate becomes permanently effective depends entirely on how it is accepted by the public. If our customers take full advantage of it, there is no apparent reason why it should not continue." LEGION NOTES Word has been received by James K. Fisk, state adjutant of the American Legion, that the California department of the Legion has been allotted the entire space on the French steamship De Grasse when the second American Expeditionary Force sailed for France September next. These additional accommodations will now permit some two hundred additional California veterans of the World war and their families to visit the war scenes of ten years ago. This special concession to California was obtained by George J. Hatfield, Instructions regarding the proper observation of Memorial Day by the 300 posts of the American Legion have been sent to all units by Eugene D. Bennett, state chairman of the World war veterans' Americanism commission. "Memorial Day or Decoration Day," Bennett's statement to the Legionnaires remarks, "was first conceived and instituted by the Grand Army of the Republic. For half a century they rightfully have taken the lead in its observance. Time, however, has thinned their ranks, and though their hearts be still loyal and willing, their footsteps are beginning to falter; and while they shall hold the position of honor until the last one is called, younger hands must take up and carry on that which they started so many years ago. This the Legion has pledged itself to do. We are, therefore, calling upon your post to remind the citizens of its community that this hallowed day is not a day for picnics and outings, but should be observed in a manner that will not only reflect the reverence which we feel for the occasion, but will also make us realize the privilege which is ours as citizens of this great republic to enjoy its peace and plenty." If you have more stale bread than you can use up in other ways—for toast, stuffings, dry crumbs, scalloped dishes, and so forth—make a bread crumb cake. Beat three eggs well, add one cup of sugar, and stir in two cups of sifted dry crumbs from very dry oven-toasted bread, one-quarter teaspoon salt, one-quarter teaspoon cinnamon, one teaspoon vanilla and one-quarter teaspoon almond extract. Bake in a shallow greased pan in a slow oven for 30 to 40 minutes. A party dress is not the only kind of costume that can be considered pretty. Any costume that is appropriate for the occasion when it is worn—for work, for school, or for the street—may be very charming. If it is simple in design, comfortable, and made of durable materials and of a color suited to the season, it will be appropriate. Buena Park Notes (By MRS. J. P.

In other words, there is an excellent chance for them to pick up worm eggs and disease germs if there are many around. Not only should you keep the houses clean, but you should keep the soil over which the chicks range in a sweet and sanitary condition. Cultivate the soil often. Sow it to a green crop of some kind. Eat all the cherries you can during their short season, and then can the surplus for winter ples. Pit them, heat them in syrup, pack them hot, and then process in the water bath. To clean clogged gas burners, take them out of their sockets and brush off all loose dirt. Then place them in a large kettle or pan, perferably enamel, that will not be injured by washing soda. Boil for about half an hour in a mixture of one-half pound washing soda to each gallon of water. Rinse and brush the burners; wipe with cotton waste or paper; fit them into the stove and dry thoroughly by lighting the gas.
