Electrical Christmas gifts are always appreciated. This year the variety from which to select is greater than ever before and you can buy many of them in local stores, unhurried and in comfort.
Suppose your gift list includes your mother, your older sister and husband, your just-married niece and groom, your husband, and your daughter. Following are practical suggestions:
Mother—an electric heating pad, to make winter slumber more comfortable.
Sister and husband—an electric roaster, a gift that will be useful both at home-meal and when they entertain. It roasts a large piece of meat or cooks several different foods at once.
Niece and husband—an electric grill, which will be a valuable addition to their new home. It does all kinds of frying, and butter-toasts whole sandwiches.
Husband—an automatic electric egg cooker, to end for all time his reflections on your ability to cook eggs. With an electric egg cooker, he can boil or poach them himself at the table.
Daughter—A decorative indirect table lamp for her bedside table. She will like this as a pretty addition to her room and it will also keep her from straining her eyes when she reads or studies in bed. Select one which has a diffusing bowl which prevents harmful glare.

County Residents To Total 133,700
The population of Orange county at the beginning of 1939 is estimated to be 133,700, according to a study of the population of California counties, just made public by California Taxpayers' association. The estimate for January 1, 1939, shows an approximate increase of 15,000 persons persons over the 1936 census population of 118,674 and is an estimated increase of 13 per cent during the nine years since the federal census was taken.
Population of the entire state is estimated by the association at 6,940,000, an estimated increase of 22 per cent over the 1930 census of 5,677,251 persons. This, the association points out, is an estimated 2.3 per cent increase compounded annually during the present decade. The population of Californias, according to the Taxpayers' estimate, is increasing at a rate higher than that over the United States as a whole, due to the migration into the state during the present decade.
