Thanksgiving Day Service Planned Thanksgiving day services will be conducted on Thursday in Churches of Christ, Scientist. The subject of the lesson-sermon is "Thanksgiving" and the golden text is from I Thessalonians: "Rejoice evermore." Pray without ceasing. In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you." The service is at 11 o'clock. Among the Bible citations in the lesson-sermon are these verses from the Psalms: "O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name; make known his deeds among the people." "Serve the LORD with gladness; come before his presence with singing." Know ye that the LORD he is God; it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture. Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise; be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations." The lesson-sermon presents also these words from "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures" by Mary Baker Eddy: "Gratitude is much more than a verbal expression of thanks." Action expresses more gratitude than speech... What we most need is the prayer of fervent desire for growth in grace, expressed in patience, meekness, love, and good deeds." Durigf' the service an opportunity will be afforded Christian Scientists in the congregation to give testimonies appropriate to the occasion.

Thanksgiving Day Service Planned Aqueduct's Main Line is Operating Colorado River Water Began Flowing Into Cajalco Reservoir Sunday The main line of the Metropolitan Water district aqueduct went into operation Sunday afternoon when Colorado river water began to flow into the Cajalco reservoir, located about 10 miles southwest of Riverside. The water entered the man-made lake at the rate of 270,000 gallons per minute and started the formation of a new southern California lake, about five miles long and two miles wide, and having a capacity of 33 billion gallons of water. The Cajalco reservoir is situated in a natural irregularly shaped basin in the hills south of Riverside. The reservoir was created by the construction of a huge earthfull dam, 195 feet high and a third of a mile thick at its base, and by the erection of an earthfull dike, 90 feet high and a mile and a half long. The reservoir sides of the dam and dike are paved with reinforced concrete. Aqueduct water entering the reservoir completed a 242-mile journey through tunnels, open canals, conduits and siphons—all the way from the aqueduct's intake on Lake Havasu, back of Parker dam on the Colorado river. It had been lifted 1617 feet by five pumping plants, each of which operates three pumps. Each of the pumps lift water at the rate of 90,000 gallons a minute, which is about one-third of the ultimate A.E.SCHUMACHER O.H.RENNER The S2R Store A PREVIEW OF CHRIST HOUSE COATS Beautiful spun rayon houscoats, assorted colors— $3.95 ROBES Ladies beautiful robes, chenil suede, satin in lovely styles a colors— $3.95 to $8.95 Thanksgiving Day Service Planned giving day services will be held on Thursday in the Church of Christ, Scientist.

Fiction is Leader Among Collegians Despite the quantities of reference work undertaken by many Santa Ana junior college students, reading habits indicate that general fiction today continues to predominate among jaysee literary preferences, a survey of Librarian Lillian Dickson revealed. Modern biographies, travel books, and non-fiction are favored in that order, the tabulation showed. Fiction, largely furnished the college by the Penny Fair Library, a circulating section sponsored by Los Gauchos, student service club, was closely followed in popularity by volumes of political significance, Miss Dickson said. Included among these were the widely-read John Gunther's "Inside Asia," and Adelf Hitler's "Mein Kampf." she said. Following national trends toward photographic publications, students indicated preference for Life magazine, news-photo journal. Technical non-fictional books, often sources of student reference and hobby material, find particular approval in the fields of astronomy, radio, and general scientific advances, the librarian reported. Camera manuals also ranked high in popularity, the survey indicated. "Of the newer volumes we have received recently, 'The Chinese Are Like That,' by Carl Crow will probably be one of the most popular." Miss Dickens predicted.

Very warm for this time of year. Loads of correspondence waiting, so as Winchell would put it, "now for the mails as the time will allow." Over the period of the past six months I have received a multitude of requests for pictures of the different places that have been visited on this tour to date: also inquiries as to the duration and requests that various places be included in my itinerary. My correspondence also shows that a great many people are keeping scrap books for future reference on trips of their own. To date all correspondence has been answered personally. However, to clarify all the above, especially for the readers whose papers have subscribed recently here is the story in a nutshell. This tour was begun in February 1938, will cover approximately 150,000 miles of the United States, Canada and Mexico and will take some four years to complete. It will cover all national parks, state parks of mention, outstanding points of a scenic or historical nature, together with current events of national prominence. Its object is to impartially present you with a small idea of what you can expect to see if you make a trip to any of the visited points; also to give you some of the historical background whenever possible. To date most of the visited points have been in the central and western parts of the United States; however, beginning this coming week the tour will continue through the southern states, covering such places as Palm Springs, Calif.; Carlsbad Caverns, New Mexico; Pecos, Texas; Mardi Gras in New Orleans, etc. Also a series of six stories from the interior of Old Mexico where oxen carts are a prevalent means of transportation. Each week throughout the tour a series of ten pictures are being taken of the points of interest of that week's story. At the expiration of each 52 week period, these pictures with the accompanying story will be printed in book form. Through the co-operation of your newspaper it will be possible for us to supply this column's readers with copies of this book for a fraction of their retail price on book stands. The book will contain 128 pages of which 23 will be allocated for use by the owner for pictures and notes of his or her week-end trips and vacation. With its 52 stories and 520 pictures in each edition, we believe that the four yearly publications of this book will comprise the most complete works on scenic and historical points of interest of the North American continent that has ever been compiled. The first edition will be published this coming March. Notice of its publication will be carried in this column. Thanks for the inquiries. See you in Palm Springs next week.
