Los Angeles St. Phone 464 Christmas Baskets from Good FELLOWS Charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up." At Christmas one's thoughts turn toward giving and that generously, not only to our dear ones but to those especially in need, those to whom otherwise Christmas would mean a sad time—a time when Santa had apparently forgotten them. Charity has such an unpleasant sound. If it is translated into love and good fellowship it will work out the greatest happiness, to all. One woman who for three years had charge of the Christmas Baskets given by a women's club said she had always regarded this work as a very great privilege. "We fix up our baskets as if we were giving them to our friends," she said. "First we find families who are worthy and to whom baskets will be acceptable. There are always the 'proud poor' who would cry feel hurt if offered gifts. Then if we know the age of the children in the family we supply stocking and mittens of the right size. "A call for donations from the club members gives us varied supplies. Home-made preserves or canned goods, we always receive. Then each basket has a chicken, there is in it candy and dates, or some special Christmas dainty. We try to see that each child receives a little gift." "As to packing the baskets," she continued, "we make a special so that if he wished, he might write and thank the giver. Not that the giver wants to be thanked—but the boy's self-respect has been considered. An incident is called to mind, of the days of the war. One Sunday afternoon, a young couple invited a stray sailor lad from a near-by training station to their home for the afternoon. He seemed so appreciative of the effort to entertain him that he could hardly wait until he might "return the favor." He invited them to visit his training station, and later when the young folks were able to accept the invitation, he took great pleasure in showing them around and explaining all he could. They, in turn were grateful to him for a pleasant afternoon in one of those enormous and marvelous schools they developed. A last little hint for Chancellorship, left over from days, concerns the subject tens. One dear lady always ried four of five pairs of with her when in the city. ever she saw a newsboy other child) with red, colored hands, she gave him a mittens. Seems rather idea, doesn't it? TENNIS RACKET NEW YORK, Dec. 5.——"The incident is closed," was the only comment Harold H. Hackett, member of the Davis cup committee, would make on the threat of Wm. T. Tilden III, world's leading tennis player, to retire from Davis cup play. The threat was made following Hackett's criticism of Tilden's double play in the last cup series, the champion replying by charging the committee with star chamber tactics in the selection of its teams. A call for donations from the club members gives us varied supplies. Home-made preserves or canned goods, we always receive. Then each basket has a chicken, there is in it candy and dates, or some special Christmas daisy. We try to see that each child receives a little gift. "As to packing the baskets," she continued, "we make a special effort to make them look attractive. The baskets are decorated with colored paper, the gifts are all wrapped with tissue paper and tied with ribbons, in other words, just as we would send to our dearest friends. Each basket has its Christmas card with a merry rhyme. Our grocer kindly loaned their truck and delivered the baskets for us, this last year." "Besides the work the club does for the individuals, we try to help the settlement house in which we are interested. For them we send out a call to our club members for soap, and for all sizes of stockings. These two articles seem to be the most needed. As to clothing, our effort has been to supply that, both before and after Christmas. If we know of some special need, we ask our members for the size and kind of garment, and it is always forth coming." Another branch of this club's Christmas fellowship work is handled by a committee to work among the ex-soldiers in a nearby hospital. Different organizations take up the various needs, so as not conflict with each other. One group gives handkerchiefs to each one of the soldiers, another group gives socks, and so on. This particular club gave each boy a Christmas box, besides decorating trees for the different wards in the hospitals. In order that the boxes might be nearly uniform, club members were asked to buy their gifts, with the box, to amount to a dollar. Cigarettes, stamps, stationery, toilet soap, shaving soap, tooth paste, toilet water, decks of cards, were suggested as possible gifts. At the meeting in which the gifts most acceptable were discussed, there was some amusement felt over the toilet water. But it was explained that the soldiers did really regard it as a luxury and were fond of it—and at Christmas they surely ought to receive the things they like. It was further suggested that a little note accompany each box, so that the recipient would feel it more of a personal present and NEW YORK, Dec. 5—"The incident is closed," was the only comment Harold H.

Miss Amy Woods is national secretary of the Women's International League for Peace and Freedom. The league was organized in 1915, and had its first meeting at the Hague in that year. Its object is "the promotion of peace between nations, races and classes which is based on justice and goodwill, and the outlawry of war." Miss Woods has spent considerable time in Europe in the past two years, and at present is lecturing through the United States on the aims of the League. TWO NEW WELLS AT H. B. FIELD Huntington Beach passed a quiet week, the only happening of importance was the bringing in of two wells by the Standard Oil Co. and a small well by the Shell Company. The Standard completed No. 18 on the Huntington B lease, at 4550 and got a 509 barrel well. Huntington A 22 at 4520 a 200 barrel well. The Standard wells are making 25 gravity oil. The Shell Company went to 4692 at Ashton 7 and got an 85 barrel well for the efforts. Deep production at Huntington Bench does not seem to be coming forward very profitably and doubtless will be discontinued soon. Huntington Beach aggregate hewers around the 70,000 barrel a day mark. Water seems to be the ban of the wildcatters as two wells scheduled to open up two new fields for Southern California are being held up with water trouble, and until the solution is found neither one of these wells will tell us anything. At Bellflower the Calpetro Producers Syndicate had the stage set for the bringing in of a well at about 4400 feet, but water interrupted the program. The Oak Ridge Oil Company's Resel well went so far as to halt tankage and put in a pipe line and all the necessary equipment for the bringing in of a big well, but found the water not shut off. The Bellflower well has some favorable showings and might make a small producer. The Oakridge Oil Company has had some 26 feet of very rich oil sand and there seems to be little doubt as to the possibility of it making an oil well, as soon as the water problem is solved. The Oakridge well is 4572 deep, the oil sand Being at 4652 and 4672. Acreaia is planning to figure in the future oil development of Southern California. A well has been located and drilling started by the Vosberg Petroleum Company. The geological work was done by M. L. Schliff, the man who located the Calpetro Producers Syndicate at Bellflower.
