For War Needs: Milk AND ELECTRICITY Dairy farming is one of Southern California's important war industries. Its products, essential to the health of Uncle Sam's fighters and workers, contribute immeasureably to the war effort. Electricity plays a major part in modern dairy farming. Annual High School Honors to School "Courage, stamina, citizenism and character—qualities essentia to the very foundations of society whether in times of war or peace—are developed by football," declared Coach Bill Cook of San Ana junior college when he dressed hundreds of alert young people of Union high school Monday night. The occasion was the annual football banquet at which honors were paid both B and C teams to the 1942 Varsity squad. Cook produced as guest speaker by Frank Kellogg, master of monies, also stressed the importance of the young men's clapping as much formal school as possible before being called upon to enter the nation's army forces. It was a program of high thrusiasm, enlivened by various school and university songs, including Anaheim's own "Blue Gold," fine instrumental music and many short talks of greetings. Among these were greetings from the city council expressed Mayor Charles A. Pearson; for the high school board of trustees brought by President A. C. H. Cel, and inspirational remarks by Jimmie Heffron, editor of Anaheim Bulletin. In addition to many choruses were numbers by the boys' quintet composed of Warren Heckler, Harry Heckman, Ted Rinehart, Ray Yelkin.

Its products, essential to the health of Uncle Sam's fighters and workers, contribute immeasurably to the war effort. Electricity plays a major part in modern dairy farming, especially now that there is a shortage of farm labor. It milks cows, cools the milk, sterilizes utensils and does many other tasks that help produce more and better milk at lower costs. As one of its vital war jobs, the Edison Company has pledged itself to the task of meeting the needs of Southern California's dairying industry for low cost electric power. SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA EDISON COMPANY LTD. WITH NATURAL GAS, TOO... THE WAR HAS THE RIGHT-OF-WA Why you may be asked by your gas company some time this winter to use less gas temporarily for household heating because of an emergency Southern California has an all-out war job these days—to rush every possible plane, tank and ship into the hands of our armed forces throughout the world. This, too, is the task for natural gas—to see that the war job comes first! That is why some time this winter you may be asked by your gas company in an emergency to use less gas temporarily for heating your home so that vital war production can continue uninterrupted. Your cooperation in a Wartime Fuel-Gas Emergency will be a vitally important war service The vast network of steel pipelines it takes to deliver gas throughout this area was designed for peacetime—but today it must also meet the increased demands of wartime. The known reserve supply of gas is abundant—but the network of pipelines for delivering it cannot be expanded as the demand increases, because it would take hundreds of tons of steel so vitally needed on other fronts. Under these circumstances, a situation such as extreme weather conditions could create a temporary emergency "peak load" where the present system would be unequal to the task. The importance of the relief which you can provide on days of very low temperature, for example, can be realized when we say that 80% of our residential load on a "peak" day is gas used for house heating. If the need arises, your gas company will notify you by radio or through the newspapers to use less gas temporarily for household heating because of an emergency. Your prompt cooperation will be a wartime service of vital importance.

Blood Donors Are Asked For "Christmas Gifts" Are you ready to make the best Christmas gift of all? That is the question that Anaheim chapter, American Red Cross is asking today of everyone in the city. The gift in question is the contribution of a single plot of blood from each individual, to the mobile unit of the blood bank when it makes its monthly appearance here on Tuesday, December 29. The fourth Friday of the month is the usual time for the unit to come to Anaheim for the blood contributions always made so generously by our citizens. But since that date falls on Christmas Day, the time was advanced to the following Tuesday morning, at Ebell clubhouse. Anaheim has the distinction of having always met her quota of blood plasma but with so much illness prevalent at present, coupled with the holiday rush, the Red Cross is asking for many new donors.

The Golden Text from Acts, reads: "Known unto God are all his works from the beginning of the world." Bible citations will be from the prophet Haggai and from the Psalms. Mary Baker Eddy in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures," contributes such statements as: "The universe, like man, is to be interpreted by Science from its divine Principle, God, and then it can be understood; but when explained on the basis of physical sense and represented as subject to growth, maturity and decay, the universe, like man, is and must continue to be, an enigma." BALANCING THE BUDGET The government should go in for reciprocal trade relations with other countries. That is, buy from them what we do not produce, and sell to them what they haven't got. Were we to try it, we'd see that good came from the deals. County Methodist Ministers' Assn. Has Meeting Here It was appropriate that the December meeting of the Orange County Methodist Ministers' association should be held Tuesday afternoon in White Temple Methodist church, whose pastor, the Rev. Thomas L. Burden, is president of the association. A short business session was held with the Rev. Mr. Burden presiding and leading in devotionals. One of the principal discussion subjects was the present state of unrest among young Mexican boys of the county, and the Rev. M. B. Davila of Mexican Methodist church, Santa Ana, gave an illuminating talk. He advanced the opinion that the prevailing Southland situation is not due to subversive fifth column activities, but is indicative of general unrest among Americanborn boys of Mexican parentage, affected by the war conditions, and by the lack of social and racial understanding. He feels that the problem must be dealt with in a positive way rather than negative, and that the coordinating council recently formed in Santa Ana, will go far towards solving it. The association will cooperate with the council in all its efforts. Following the business meeting, the visiting pastors and their lives enjoyed a dinner menu served by women of the host church. Evening hours were given over to a Christmas party in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Burden, 506 East Center street. Red Cross Seals Find Ready Sale When results of the first week's sales of Red Cross Christmas seals in Orange county were totaled by the County Tuberculosis association, it as learned that a total of $4542 had been reached, according to Dr. Robert Burns McAulay of Orange, Seal sale chairman. These figures show, according to Dr. McAulay, that the county as a whole has already met 30 percent of its goal of $15,000 in sales. Anaheim seal sales are progressing well under chairmanship of Mrs. Homer G. Ames, and she has placed little placards of the seals in cellophane envelopes, in prominent place in the city's business houses. These are in addition to the hundreds of folders of the seals sent out to the many regular patrons, and will aid this city to reach its quota of $1650, according to Mrs. Ames. Anaheim's quota is the second highest in the county, and is exceeded only by the $5000 quota named for Santa Ana. Rev. and Mrs. Carl Johnston, Costa Mesa; the Revs. and Mesdames William Rogatsky, Walter C. Buckner, Karl Heilman, John A. Barnhart, N. B. Davila and C. M. Akers, Santa Ana. The Rev. and Mrs. Ayala and daughters Alice and Eunice Westminster; Rev. and Mrs. Moody, Greenville; Rev. and Mrs. Ray Ragsdale, Rev. and Mrs. Alfonso R. Dominguez, Fullerton; Rev. and Mrs. F. M. Norcross, Yorba Linda; Rev. and Mrs. H. H. Strandberg, Orange; Rev. and Mrs. Clyde Ruckman, Garden Grove, and Rev. and Mrs. C. W. Archibald, Anaheim. Butter Shortage Is Explained By Farm Advisor An answer to that present question on the lips of every Anaheim housewife, "Why was butter so suddenly restricted in retail sales?" has been given by Farm Advisor Harold E. Wahlberg. He explains that one-half of the supply of cold storage butter in the 35 principal markets of the United States has been frozen by WPB in order to assure an adequate supply for the armed forces and for Lend Lease during the low production period of the current season. From 30 to 35 million pounds of butter are involved. The action was recommended by the Foods Requirement committee because of the general butter shortage. Increased requirements for both the Army and Lend Lease together with heavier civilian demand and the lowered production have reduced the butter supply to its lowest level since 1932. As a result both the armed forces and Lend Lease have experienced difficulties in obtaining sufficient supplies. As a result of the freezing order, any one of the 35 big markets involved which had butter in its control or possession between the dates of November 6 and 20, must set aside 50 per cent of that supply until March 6, 1943, to be delivered either to the armed forces, Lend Lease or other specified government agencies, without regard to existing contracts. PLEASE POSTPONE YOUR HOLIDAY TRAIN TRIP FURLOUGHED SERVICEMEN MUST BE GIVEN PREFERENCE OVER CIVILIAN TRAVEL BETWEEN DECEMBER 12 AND JANUARY 12 When you understand the present emergency, we believe you will volunteer to stay at home during the holiday season unless it is absolutely necessary that you make a train journey. During the holidays our furloughed soldiers, sailors, marines, passenger miles of 1941. Tax Collections Set New Record Records in collections of first installment taxes have been broken this year in the office of County Tax Collector Don S. Mozley. For it is estimated that approximately $3,000,000 has been collected for this first installment of 1942 taxes. The credited collection to date is nearly three hundred thousand dollars more than on the corresponding date a year ago, indicating a high level war-time prosperity for the county. Collections as estimated, represent nearly 60 per cent of the total tax charge of $5,250,000 for the entire year. Many cafes close on certain days, because of shortage of help. But why not stay open every day with shortened hours. During the holidays our furloughed soldiers, sailors, marines, and auxiliary forces must and will have first call on railroad service. So many of them are being moved there are not enough coaches, sleeping cars, and locomotives to give normal holiday service to civilians. The successful movement of military personnel and materials of war would have been a gigantic job even without the unexpected additional load thrown upon the railroads by the gas and rubber situation. Actually the railroads today are carrying twice as much freight as in 1940 and are rolling up more than double the passenger miles of 1941. To further help you understand the present situation, we quote Mr. Eastman:— "No more railroad passenger cars are being built. The equipment we now have has got to do for the duration." We know that loyal Americans will cooperate by postponing their travel during the holiday period when they realize the nature of the present emergency. Circle the dates December 12 to January 12 on your calendar, and label them "stay-at-home" days.
