The feast consists of enough bar

coffee and plenty of tobacco with
perhaps a loaf of bread each, which
they consider great delicacy.
The Hopi Indians are sterner in

SELL
BY TRAINLOA
IN CALIFORNIA

Back in 1919, +. l.. Maytag decid
ed to manufacture the present model
of the Maytag washing machine. Ac-
cording TO Charles Long, branch |
manager of the Maytag Co., +. l.. '
Maytag Grated three Maytags and !
started for San Francisco declaring
to his two sons that he was not
coming back to Newton until he Sc
cured an order for carload of wash
erS.
Arriving in the Bay City, he called
on 7. Schlueter, Sr., who was then
operating a machine agency in San
Francisco. Schluctcr looked the ma
chine over and in spite of the fact
that he had just purchased five car
loads of another make, ordered a car
load of Maytags. The progress of
the Maytag company since that time
is romance to the industrial world
today. From a business showing a
profit of one million dollars in 1920,
it has steadily grown until in 1928,
it equalled the stupendpus amount
of thirty-five million dollars.
The progress of Schiucter kept
pace with that of the parent organ
ization in Newton. From the two
stores in the bay cities Theodore
Schluctcr next opened Maytag agen'
cics throughout the state, and elimi-
mated all other lines from his busi-
ness. Singularly enough, the prosper
| itv of Schlucter's and the large
sa lie of Maytag washers can be cas-
| ily used when progress and prosper
-, 10 trnnnI hnsk IN
| that dav in 1919 when +. l.. Maytag
sold his first carload of machines to
Schlucter. The year after the war,
the coast was pulling itself out of
the coma and adjusting itself to nor
NAL conditions. 1t was during this
period that Theodore Schluctcr pur'
| chased the 100 Maytags. In April,
1926, the homes and population have
! increased to such an extent and the
demand for more Maytags became so
| insistent that Schlucter wired the
factory at Newton to rush a solid
trainload of Maytag washers. When
the news was printed in eastern dali
les and trade journals, manufactur-
ers on the other side Of the Rockies
sat up i'll surprise. 1t has always
| been the eastern idea that Califor-
MIA was place to play, but poor
market for home appliances.
The first trainload was disposed Of
in less than five weeks, but owing to
the nation wide demand for washers
! Schlueter had to content himself
with shipments of two and three car
loads per day. He was finally com
PEELED, however, to telegraph +. il.
Maytag on September 27, and or
! dered two solid trainloads at once.
The record breaking shipment Of
Maytags was rushed across the con
tincnt, setting new records for
freight shipments. A large advcrtis-
ing campaign was staged during the
month Of Octabcr. and before the
second week in November, Schlue-
tcr's had sold the entire trainload.
To cap the climax of the entire
story three solid trains of Maytag
/ washers, leaving the factory at New
! ton, Iowa, on December 9th, have
arrived in California. Three solid
trainloads Of Maytags is the largest
single shipment of any merchandise
ever made to California, and Califor-
MIA boosters can be proud of the fact
that the large sale of electrical ap-
| pliances indicates the progressive.

THE UKRAINIAN CHORUS

Ever and anon, residents of Ell Centro complain OF
the dearth of worth while entertainments IN this city,
lamenting the absence of legitimate shows and musl
cal attractions of the better sort.
1t must be confessed that opportunities to hear art
lists of national fame altogether too mtrequent IN
this community limiting to the radio and the phono-
graph for this kind of entertainments
Tomorrow night, however, Ell Centre Will nave an
opportunity to hear aggregation of singers Whlch
has in this country and others, when the
Ukranian National Chorus gives a program here
This splendid musical organization is brought to the
city by the Ell Centro Music and Arts Association,
which has for its purpose the beerment OF entertain
ment here and sponsors the presence of nationally
known artists and organizations
1t is conducted non-profit basis and Is deserV-
ing the whole-hearted support of the entire city.
In bringing the Ukranian Chorus here, the local
organization is to be highly commended. This chorus
usually appears only in the larger cities and date was
arranged for Ell Centro only because it would serve to
break up long trip by railroad
1t is hoped that Ell Centric residents will show their
appreciation of the work of the Music and Arts asso-
cation and their desire to have musical entertainment
of high order by filling tie Palace theater tomorrow
night. Only by encouragement of this sort can the
Music and Arts Association hope to continue its work
and be stimulated to sponsor other artistic productions
in the future.
In addition to encouraging the local organization,
those who attend tomorrow nights concert assured
evening of musical entertainment of high order,
the press of the country being practically unanimous in
praise for the splendid work of this chorus

SOLDIERS AND CHILDREN

American Legion who do not follow its convention pro-
grams may De surprised at some of the things that
ganzation takes interest in. One of these is child
welfare.
The United States Children'S Bureau, in recent
bulletin called attention to the fact that the legion de-
votes half the income from its endowment fund to
child welfare work The various departments of the
legion plan the coming year to formulate state legis
latve programs along this line and to urge them for
the public good. The bets which the legion has es
tablished for children of veterans show on
phase of its interest in those particular children They
regarded permanent things, but clearing
house for those dependent children from which they
are to be placed in normal happy homes with relatives
or foster parents far possible.
These very interesting things for great soldier
organization to be doing National defense and other
goals the legion seeks would not be worth much if the
the children of the country weren't getting fair
chance. The legion right when it lines itself up with
the other foresighted individuals and groups working
for this.
