Fruit Distributors, and is an organization to perfect the packing, shipping and marketing of apples from the Pa5aro valley, one of the most fertile of the California fruit growing districts and as result the growers are anticipat- the Pajaro Valley. It is of interest to his old friends and associates in Nor wtch and the east to learn of the i'm portant part he has taken as repre- sentative of the largest commercial house in the Pajaro valley in bringing about this the first organization of the apple growers in the district. The way in which the business interests and the press and people in general have backed the enterprise is indication oi the enthusiasm and initiative that is shown, by western men.

" HE first Of series Of three
games to decide the school
championship in girls bas-
ketball at Western was
played off on Monday. the Juniors
winning from the Seniors by the
score OF IS to 9.
The team winning two games out
of three has its numerals put on a
banner that will hang in the gymna-
stun until another class wins the
title. This year the upper class
praCticing at Epiphany have had
FIVE teams, two for the Sophomores,
two for the Juniors, and one for the
Seniors. The Senior team and the
first Junior team have so far out
played their opponents in the pre-
lmnary games Of the series that
they have earned the right to play
off the series for the banner. In
addition. girls playing on the win
ming team in two Of the three games
receive their W's, and three games
are always played. no matter what
may be the standing of the teams
after the first two.
When the Juniors marched on the
floor Monday, they were led by
diminutive and very dusky picka-
ninny, gayly clad in a red and white

red reins.
For the first part of the playing.
the teams were very evenly matched.
with Marjorie Cohen, captain of the
Seniors, and Harriet Miller. of the
Juniors, starring as forwards. Dur
ing this half. no fouls were called
on the Seniors and four on the
Juniors, of which two were turned
into scores by the opposing team.
The score at the end of the first
half was 1876, in favor of the Juniors.
The Seniors missed several excellent
chances In the second half, owing to
the steady guarding OF the Juniors.
Tho Senior center was rather weak,
and the Junior center players often
intercepted the passing of the Senior
guards. The Junior team work was
particularly effective in the second
half, while four timely scores and
one goal from a foul brought their
score UP to nineteen. During this
half, the Seniors scored one field
goal and one goal from a foul.
Marjorie Cohen did all the scoring
for the Seniors. Harriet Miller made
fifteen points for the Juniors, and
Maria Bisset, the other Junior for
ward. scored four points.
The teams are as follows: Seniors,

less couker which saves fuel.
Business and the home are each oper,.
ated for entirely different purposes, and
any tool or equipment which will
contribute to those purposes is a justi-
fable investment.
Business Is operated for financial
profit alone. Therefore, everything the
business man can use which will add
to his money profit Is a wise purchase
The foresighted business man sees that
culating machines, duplicating devices,
will eventually save him money. even
II they are costly in the beginning.
For Personal Happiness.
The home. however, is operated only
for the personal happiness, comfort, and
health of each member of the family.
The home is not expected to produce
money profit Consequently, any de-
vice or piece of equipment which may
add to the happiness or health or COM
, fort of any member of the family is
justifiable expense. The phonograph
does not produce money profit. But it
does contribute very largely to the
pleasure and happiness of the entire
family.
Is it not reasonable. therefore, that
the washing machine or the fireless or
the kitchen cabinet which save the
weary houseworker from a large part
of necessary household drudgery are
equally important and necessary pur-
chases? The homernaker is as much en-
titled to convenient tools in the kitchen
as is all the family entitled to comfort
able chairs and reading tables in the
living room. =
But why should I buy all these
things for my housemaid?" asks one
homemaker she Is not part of my
family, and even If she does save a few
hours each day through these modern
improved devices. that does not benefit
me in proportion to the expense of these
articles"
But it does.
In the first place, the time thus saved
can usually be put to other tasks which
are always waiting in NOSE households
never finds. The more quickly ones
household tasks are finished the more
can be accomplished and the more eff
ciently will the household be managed
In addition, most Of the improved
modern tools do the work not only
more quickly, but enable them to be
done much more thoroughly than the
old ways.
Moreover, If the homemaker will place
In the kitchen for Mary Ann the labor
savers and helps that she would de-
sire were she doing her own work, it
is likely that there will be no servant
problem on her hands.
1t is true that 1t is often difficult
to get the more ignorant types Of serv-
ants to use mechanical household helps.
But 1t is also true that these mechan-
zeal helps can shorten the hours of la
bor-the one strong objection perennial
1y made to housework.
The improved household tool brings
greater freedom-more leisure, and
more comfort to the houseworker. and
in thus fulfilling the purpose of the
home, Justifies its purchase.
