Not because we aren't sincere, not because we are unappreciative, but because we fully realize the magnitude of attempting to convey in words the things that are in our hearts. We've come a long way and we've got a long ways to go yet, but somehow, our confidence in the people of this community, as well as all Americans, leads us to know that eventually we will again enjoy the full benefits of the American way of life as we like to live it. Until that time, there's still work to be done, so, let's keep our chin up and look forward to happier days ahead. A Merry Christmas and A Bright New Year E. A.

Butter Outdoor Slim for Fun No substantial increase in short supplies of the southern California likely before next spring; to Leonard M. Kearns district food price chief. Kearns said that the son is the low producer but that normal high next spring should present shortage. Recate that current supplier are approximately one of what had been consular by the trade during period. It should be born southlanders, the food emphasized, that while geles is one of the producing areas in practically none of the nation is manufactured Almost all of it goes land tables as fluid milk. Southern California drawn heavily on middle western states Kearns pointed out, and this is now being dired home-trade rather shipped to distant point. In answer to some members of dustry that higher prices would induce the duce more butter, than able methods of insuring ter for this area could but that neither applicable. One method increase the ceiling price locally so that distance would have an inducer. Maude M. Hymer Dies Suddenly Mrs. Maude M. Hymer, beloved wife of Thomas G. Hymer, passed away very suddenly last Monday evening at a local hospital. Shortly before her death she complained of not feeling well and was taken to the hospital where she died. Born in Kansas 71 years ago, she had been a resident of Anaheim for the past eight years. The deceased was a member of the Christian church in Oklahoma. Surviving are her husband, Thomas G., a retired railroad man; two daughters, Mrs. C. Cl Revis of Oakland and Mrs. Agee Strode of Anaheim; one sister, Mrs. Ada Jagger of Portland, Oregon, and two grandchildren. Funeral services are being conducted today (Thursday) at 2 o'clock from the chapel of Hilgenfeld mortuary with burial in Anaheim cemetery. JOHN CLAY, VETERAN, VISITED SISTERS What with dividing the past two weeks between two sisters of this vicinity, and their husbands (Mr. and Mrs. Wes Osburn of 940 West Broadway, and Mr. and Mrs. Donald Hain, Santa Ana.) John Clay discharged quartermaster, who drove heavy trucks for the U.S. Army, has had a busy visiting "session." Mr. Clay (Cpl.) saw 30 months of active service in the South Pacific and left the first of this week for Cortez, Colorado where he plans to spend some time with his immediate family there.

Christmas Dinner Costs About Same As '44, Says OPA Mrs. Housewife, who is getting down to details about this time on the planning of her biggest dinner of the year—the Christmas repast—won't have to stretch her budget any more than she did last year when she goes to the market according to OPA. Cost of the dinner will be about the same as it was last year. A survey of 17 commodities frequently found on the Christmas dinner table showed that six are selling at lower prices now than last year, four are up and seven are the same. The "main event" item—what else but turkey—is a bit cheaper this year with young hens selling for 49 cents a pound dressed and young toms at 47 cents to 51 cents for each last year. Also slightly less expensive this year is canned pumpkin, potatoes, bulk cranberries and table wine. Canned peas, plum pudding, celery, shortening, fruit cake, raisins and nuts are pegged with the same price as they were last year, and only mincemeat, apples, butter and oranges show an increase over Christmas, 1944. Oranges showed the greatest rise, being five pounds for 60 cents as against five pounds for 48 cents last year. And if Mrs. Housewife wants to detour that hot kitchen and that unpleasant session with the dishes afterward by dining out she can assure Mr. Pick-up-the-check that he will find it no larger than it was for a similar meal at that spot in 1942. The same goes for New Year's day dinner, Kearns said, since cafes can charge no more than they did for similar meals and beverages on that day in 1943. Martin Del Giorgio Buried Last Tues. Requiem mass for Martin Del Giorgio was conducted at 9 a.m. Tuesday at the chapel of Backs, Campbell and Kaulbars' mortuary with Father Lehane of St. Mary's church, Fullerton, officing. Recitation of the rosary was held Monday evening at 8 o'clock. Burial was in the family plot, Calvary cemetery, Los Angeles. Mr. Del Giorgio, who established a ranch on West Orange-thorpe over 35 years ago, passed away Friday at the Fullerton General hospital after a three weeks' illness. He will be remembered as owner-operator of the Purity dairy which was carried on by his sons up to four years ago. He was a member of Anaheim B.P.O. Elks, No. 1345. He is survived by two sons, Frank, this city and Joseph of the home ranch; five grandchildren, Frank Anthony, Anaheim, Lee Martin, Joseph, Brian and Anne; also of the ranch; one sister, Mrs. Constance Paggi of San Fernando, and one brother, Chester Del George of Hollywood. Latest statistics published by the U.S. bureau of census show that 108,579 organized school districts function throughout the United States. Illinois leads all other states with 12.138 districts. Since wool is sold by weight in world markets, a knowledge of its moisture content is important; under normal conditions it varies from 8 per cent to 12 per cent.

Men's and Women's Apparel 158 West Center St. Phone 4224 Colters (Formerly Jack Corn's) Butter Outlook Slim for Future No substantial increase in present short supplies of butter in the southern California area is likely before next spring, according to Leonard M. Kearns, OPA district food price chief. Kearns said that the winter season is the low production period but that normal high production next spring should relieve the present shortage. Reports indicate that current supplies of butter are approximately 30 per cent of what had been considered normal by the trade during the war period. It should be born in mind by southlanders, the food price chief emphasized, that while Los Angeles is one of the largest milk producing areas in the nation practically none of this production is manufactured into butter. Almost all of it goes onto southland tables as fluid milk. Southern California has always drawn heavily on western and middle western states for butter, Kearns pointed out, and much of this is now being distributed to the home trade rather than being shipped to distant points. In answer to contentions of some members of the dairy industry that higher OPA ceiling prices would induce them to produce more butter, that two possible methods of insuring more butter for this area could be tried but that neither appeared practicable. One method would be to increase the ceiling price of butter locally so that distant shippers would have an inducement to send In answer to contentions of some members of the dairy industry that higher OPA ceiling prices would induce them to produce more butter, that two possible methods of insuring more butter for this area could be tried but that neither appeared practicable. One method would be to increase the ceiling price of butter locally so that distant shippers would have an inducement to send their products here and the other would be to adopt a policy directing the industry as to the kind and quantity of dairy products it could produce for the consuming public—specifying, of course, that more butter and less other by-products of cream be made. The first plan would probably fail, Kearns explained, because if ceilings were increased in areas of extreme shortage there would at once ensue a series of adjustments in other areas and the final result would be a serious dislocation in distribution, with total shortages merely being transferred from one area to another. The second plan—that of directing the industry as to how much of their milk and cream should be diverted to butter, ice cream and other by-products—would involve re-instating rationing and other wartime restrictions and, MERRY CHRISTMAS K. F. HELLYER ... BUICK 410 South Los Angeles — Anaheim Phone 2297 WE'RE GLAD It's CHRISTMAS The approach of the Christmas sea—the pursuit of freedom had not been The approach of the Christmas season gives each of us cause to ponder a moment or two in retrospect. We can look back over a year in which each of us has had many obstacles to surmount, when it seemed as though so much needed to be done and when we wondered where we would receive the strength with which to carry on. Now, as we look back, we see that there was courage and cheer to be gained from those about us, whose actions and deeds made us realize that the pursuit of freedom had not been vain. Viewing these things, we do not find it difficult to be thankful at this Christmastime. We are truly glad that we are a part of the fine people of this community, to have friends, and to enjoy their associations. It gives us a sense of satisfaction and a desire to be of greater service in the next twelve months. Sure—we're glad it's Christmas. The Season's best to each of you!
