'Food Fights For Freedom' Is New Slogan For 1944 Production Drive Fortified with the experience gained in three successful wartime food campaigns, the Agricultural Extension Service of the University of California is launching a "Food Fights For Freedom" campaign throughout farm areas of the state. "Food is one of our most important wartime weapons and our 1944 food production goals are a major responsibility for every member of the Agricultural Extension Service," Director B. H. Crocheron asserted in a bulletin to county farm advisors. Reviewing the farm labor, victory garden and home food preservation campaigns of Extension Service and its home demonstration staff, Crocheron pointed to: More than 300,000 harvest jobs filled for California farmers; 1,000,000 Victory Gardens; and More than 105,000,000 pounds of home canned, frozen and dried foods. "These campaigns were waged in farming communities, where we were on familiar ground," he declared, "and also in city homes, a field new to Agricultural Extension Service. The patriotic response in both sectors was a tribute to the people of this state." The University's share in the "Food Fights For Freedom" program, as outlined in his announcement, will be concentrated in the rural areas with every branch of the Extension Service cooperating in aiding the farmers and growers of the state to meet the 1944 food goals.

Results of experiments and the findings and recommendations of the entire College of Agriculture relating to animal husbandry, dairying, poultry, farm management, soil conservation, irrigation, citriculture, deciduous fruits, truck crops, veterinary science, agricultural engineering and others will be transmitted to farmers through County Farm Advisors' offices throughout the state. Farm Advisors and their staffs will hold meetings to familiarize farmers with improved food production methods and the Home Demonstration agents will meet with farm housewives on food conservation problems. Full cooperation with local agencies handling other phases of the "Food Fights For Freedom" campaign is urged.

The invitation was read to members last Friday at the pot-luck luncheon and business session held at the parish hall with Mrs. Elmer Bruce, president, presiding over the afternoon events.

It was announced that Paul Demaree, principal at the Anaheim Union High school will be the guest speaker at the January meeting.

OES BUYS AMBULANCES The California Grand Chapter of the Order of the Eastern Star in October gave to the American Red Cross a check for $7,500 for three ambulances for use on the coast. During the year the Order has purchased kit bag supplies for servicemen at a cost of $8,050. This is a quick, friendly, confidential service available through any branch. The cost of a Bank of America loan is substantially less than the cost of many others and this cost includes life insurance on the borrower to retire any unpaid balance on the loan. Most important, when you borrow through Timeplan, you establish a valuable statewide credit relationship for other personal financial needs. Most loans are made without co-makers, wage assignments or other security. Auto and salary loans may also be arranged. There are good reasons why Timeplan is the most popular lending service in California today.

Letters From Our Readers Dec. 12, 1943. Mr. Jake Proctor, Anaheim Gazette, Anaheim, Calif. Dear Mr. Proctor: I sort of suspect that if you were to employ an efficient person to make a canvass that they could find more than three people who read your 'colyum,' "We Rise To Remark." I, for one have read it and several people have told me that they had read about some of my Hobbies and inquired how they were coming along. How else could they have known about them? My latest effort has become more than just a Hobby, it is a Job. I have tried to get as much information about the Post Offices of Orange County, Past and Present, as I can. I think that I have most of the information that I need excepting about two offices. I have not been able to learn definitely the location of an office called Forster which existed in 1890-91. I have been told that it may have been what later became San Juan By the Sea. And there is some question as to whether San Juan By the Sea was in the same location as Serra, which latter became Capistrano Beach and is now Doheny Park. Some have told me that San Juan By the Sea was closer to the ocean and that they thought that the first name was Forster. There has been no over-lapping of the various names. I have not been able to find Pôstal Guides for the years of 1890, 1892, 1893 and 1894. Also a few earlier and later ones, so I And Bessie Wright in special gospel meetings Sunday morning and evening, Dec. 19, at the interdenominational evangelistic center which is located at 122 South Semon street. The evangelist will speak at both services, assisted in the meetings by his wife who will present a musical program. Ezell stated that the guests were enthusiastic workers, and present in highly interesting service. The evangelist's wife was formerly a Catholic, having been baptised into the Greek Catholic church, but through a special "faith healing" was led to embrace the full gospel movement teachings, and recently entered the evangelistic work. She will relate the experience of healing, as a portion of the Sunday program. A cordial invitation is extended by the local pastor to the public to attend. Meetings will be held at 1:00 o'clock and 7:30 o'clock.

Scout Executive Orange county youth activities, especially in the Boy Scout field, suffered a distinct loss in the death on December 9 of Harrison Enderle White of Santa Ana, Orange county council executive of Boy Scouts of America. Hundreds of sorrowing friends including Boy Scouts and scoutmasters from every section of the county, attended funeral services held Saturday afternoon in the H. R. Brown chapel, Santa Ana, where Eagle Scouts formed the color guard and county scoutmasters served as honorary pallbearers. Burial was in Masonic cemetery under auspices of Silver Cord lodge F. and A. M. of Santa Ana. Mr. White was survived by his widow, Mrs. Audrey L. White, two daughters and one son, Lt. Harrison G. White of the Army Air Forces at Tampa, Fla., together with other close relatives including his parents, Mr. and Mrs. S. D. White of Portland, Ore. WASTE FATS NET RATION POINTS In common with their sisters all over the Southland, Anaheim housewives now have an added inducement to turn in waste kitchen fats since they will receive a bonus of two meat ration stamps per pound in addition to the established price of four cents a pound. Local meat markets have been authorized to pay this bonus by Frank Balthis Jr., Southland OPA director. All such waste fats are vitally needed now not only for the making of munitions but for the valuable sulfa drugs. Miss Juanita Smith of 207 Cherry street returned Tuesday evening from a month's vacation spent in Salt Lake City and San Francisco. is some question as to whether San Juan By the Sea was in the same location as Serra, which latter became Capistrano Beach and is now Doheny Park. Some have told me that San Juan By the Sea was closer to the ocean and that they thought that the first name was Forster. There has been no over-lapping of the various names. I have not been able to find Postal Guides for the years of 1890, 1892, 1893 and 1894. Also a few earlier and later ones, so I do not absolutely know that I have all the offices listed, but hope that I have. I am hoping that someone who reads this who knows just where the Forster and San Juan By the Sea offices were located will be kind enough to write it to me. I will appreciate it if someone will take the trouble. CHAS. S. KNOWLTON, 143 N. Acacia, Fullerton, California.
