PLAIN DEALER GOES TO LONDON
The annual number of the Plain Dealer has gone all the way to London, England.
Manager William Webster of the Anaheim Valencia Growers' Assn. has received a postal card from one E. A. Phipson of 111 Oval Road, Croydon, England, addressed to "Sunkist' Fruit Growers, P. O. Box 26, Anaheim," which says:
"Gentlemen: My dauter has just returned from a trip to California, and has shown me a booklet, special number of the 'Plain Dealer,' describing your undertaking, which, as a simplified speller myself, I am glad to see you designate by the simplified form 'Sunkist.' You may be interested to note that a British firm of chocolate, candy and lolly mfrs also use the same name, an' I hope you will adopt it for all your correspondence, the principle being 'No uses letern' so that there will be no difficulty in reading it, indeed it is far easier than the usual spelling. I was in Cal. some years ago myself, and noticed the name 'Sunkist' applied to places there. I heartily wish you succeed in your dubly useful work."
"Respectfully"
"E. A. Phipson."
