:. BUSINESS MEETING
 IF CHURCH IS HELD

The fourth annual business meeting of the First Congregational church was held on Wednesday night, follow ing a supper served by the ladies of the congrega tion. The report showed the church to have had Q very active year and to have accomplished much. The membership, though still small, increased during that period about 25 per cent and the esprit de corps of the church even more than that
 J. B. Brown was elected a deacon to succeed himself, Mrs. Vernon l.. Clark was elected deaconess, and Miss Eve lyn Childs clerk. Three new members were elected to the board of trustees as follows: l.. A Beckstrom. F. A. Jefferson and Jerry Kline. MT. Jeffer- son was re-elected treasurer. The re- moval of w E. Bowler from the city made it necessary to secure a new superintendent for the Sunday school and c. R. Sterling was chosen.
 A suggestion made ~by the pastor Rev. c. D. Yoakum, that the church put on a drive for men for the next | few weeks was received with enthu-
 siasm by the congregation, and plans
 were made for carrying it out. Alto gether the meeting was vital and ops

LOCAL GRAPEFRUIT
 THE BEST, HE SAYS

Arizona grapefruit is far superior to the California or Florida product in the opinion of k. W. Braun, managing sec retary of the Elgin, IL, Association of Commerce. Blow your horn down there; make It the most sught after fruit on the eastern market" he wrote Bush Anderson, chief of the traffic bureau of the police department, who forwarded him a box of grapefruit and oranges for Christmas. His letter. in part, follows:
 T got a wholesome reminder of good fellowship today in the shape of a dandy box of grapefruit from Arizona and believe me, not only I but my en- tire family want to thank you for same.
 "The grapefruit you sent is without doubt the juiCiest and best favored we have ever tasted and l want to admit that they are every bit as good as you claimed for them while we were in Cleveland a month ago.
 Tell me if you can, why is 1t that your fruit growers are so backward in advertising their fruit? It's rarely if ever one hears of Arizona grapefruit Or oranges. Is it perhaps that they are not organized as they ought to be? Or have they all the trade they are look ing for2 Why don't they get out from uutseE the DuSnel basket and blow their horn? They ought to take ex- ample from the Florida and California growers. I'll bet money that Arizona fruit today is being sold and accepted as California product in all our north ern states. What your growers ought to do Is to get together, organize and in collective way make enough noise to let the rest of the world know what Arizona furnished. Suppose it does cost money-they will get all that back and a whole lot more"
 MT. Anderson first met the EIgin man at Cleveland last December while attending meeting or the executive committee of the National Traffic Of | ficers' association. At that time the Phoenix man tested with California and Florida delegates regarding the quality of the grapefruit produced in l the various states He told the dele gates that the Arizona product was far superior to that of any other state, and to make good his boast sent box oI grapefruit and oranges east at Christ mas. Many of the delegates present did not know that Arizona grew such fruits. The letter from Braun, quoted ] ln part above, Is the result.

tion goes in three directions; some re-
turn TO their home lands, others pass
on TO the mainland and still others go
into other lines of activity in the ter
ritory. The motive actuating them all
is the same. to get away from the
hard labor of the fields as soon as pos
sible.
Ten million dollars and more. accord
ing to official statistics, has been spent
by the industries of Hawaii in import
ing labor during the past two decades
and today those industries are under a
heavier handicap of labor shortage
than ever before in their history.
The Chinese exclusion act and the
gentlemen's agreement with Japan
have shut off both those countries
but despite this, frequent recommenda-
tions have been made that congress-
take into consideration Hawaii's pc
culiar isolated position and let down
the bars.
Now a fresh attempt along this line
is being made.

Official facts and figures are in pos

Today according to Gov. c. j. Nc

facing the gravest labor crisis in its
history.
In 1900 the production of sugar for
the territory was 2S9544 tons, with
36,O40 laborers to handle the crop. In
1920 the production was 556,S71 tons
and last December there were 3S.34S
laborers at work on the plantations.
