enlarge their plantations. Eighteen
hundred pounds pressure is required
to crack the cocone nut, and there was
no machinery for doing II. Then gov.

Amalgamation, Aiming al

Consolidation of the Red Cross and
Farm Home department. m the v%ri-
Gus farm centers to work for the
common end of community and ma
tional good is one of the projects be-
ing sponsored by Miss Ruth Dickey,
head of the home department work.
Already this amalgamation has
been tried out with gratifying sue
cess in two centers--McCabe and La
Verne-with the result that other
branches will be organized.
The beneficial effects are said to
be stimulation of interest in both de-
partments, uniting of endeavors and
ultimate strengthening of the work
of both the Red Cross and the Farm
Home department.
Through first aid courses, emer-
gency and home nursing instruction,
the Red Cross curriculum is being car
ried on as part of the program of
the demonstration department. The
membership of the Red Cross is ex-
pected to be materially aided by the
consolidation, while the same will ap-
ply to the county work in getting
the attention of the Red Cross men,
bers.
"The results have been highly graf
flying and we hope to arrange these
consultations in every CENTER" said
Miss Dickey. "We find mutual bene-
fits will accrue to the members of
both organizations"

Ex-Mayor of San Bernar-

Lecturer Speak at School
Assembly.

Two visitors in Ell Centre this week
end are George H. Wixom of San
Bernardino and John w. Rushton of
Los Angeles.
The former is dovting his time as
a public speaker to lecturing in the
training camps, Y. M. C. A. and Red
Cross work.
DR.. Rushton, who was formerly of
Leeds, England, and now of Califor-
MIA, is recognized as one of the ablest
platform speakers of the country.
Sunday morning DR.. j. w. Rush
ton gave a brief address at the Chris
tian church on the ideals of Christi
anity as applied to the modern de-
mands growing out of the worlds
crisis. Those who heard it were i'm
pressed by the message.
Arrangements were made to have
these men address the High School of
this city and at 9:3O a. m. Mr.. Mad
dux was introduced by Professor Ran
dali as the one who would present
Mr.. Wixom, the ex-mavor of San
Bernardino, as the first speaker. Mr..
Wixom gave a short address dealing
with the practical side of life, which
was well received by the students.
DR.. Rushton was then introduced
and commenced by quoting from Vis-
count Morley's "Recollections," that
the most important problems of the
ages were those of government, home,
religion and labor.
at was recognized that the only
divine institutions were the home
and the church, from out of which all
other institutions of the race have
been developed" said DR.. Rushton.
cat the conclusion of the world war
these same problems are forced upon
us even more urgently than ever be-
fore. Whatever may be the outcome
of the present peace conference, it
is clear that our opinions and thoughts
of today, growing out of our moral
will make the program of
our present activities and determine
the future of the race.
"The high-sounding terms which
now are popular as democracy, lib
erty and brotherhood, can only have
and value as each one of us,
individually, shall cultivate an appre-
citation of justice, righteousness and
sympathy.
"The relationship of education to
these great problems will be seen as
we become impressed with the fact
that real real education means the
preparation for life. and the test of
life is the capacity for service"
