It was an ambitious venture, but so
well launched and so carefully piloted
through editorial seas that already,
after single year, it has brought rich
treasures to the home port. Today
the club has sum in its treasury,
earned by the cook book clear of publ
cation costs, which is adequate to pay
of the building debt and to add some
long-desired furnishings to the club
house. And more money Is coming in
right along.
Mrs. Cramton proved her executive
ability also in the management of one
of the famous congressional base ball
games two years ago. She was chair
man of the committee which made ar
rangements for the affair that netted
the club $4,000.
During the war she served as chair
man of the club sewing circle, which
did some much-needed war work.
Mrs. Dale has been an equally active
participant in the life of the club dur
ing the 10 years she has been here and
in addition has been prominent in So
cial service work in Washington.
During 1924 and 1925 she served as
vice president on the same board with
Mrs Cramton and she is now chair
man of the hostess committee.
1t is with deep regret that the club
will bid good-by to Mrs. Peter Goelet

Referring to the purpose Of such
pamphlets, Governor Abel Rodri-
guez of the northern district of the
territory of Lower California. who
had a number of similar circulars
dropped upon the Sonora rebel
lines, said that the federal govern

these, and desist from their insur-

government would be forced to

just before the instruction. and
that President Portes Gil was a

distributed by the rebel generals

as attempts to seek justification for
the uprising. They attributed the

A clowns life is not always a

ing the Loop" Paramount's latest
importation from the UFA company
Of Europe, at the Queen.
Heretofore. the clown has been
pictured by authors as a living
tragedy. Those who make others
laugh have always been made to
give the impression that their pri-
vate lives r filled with dashed
hopes and broken hearts. While
there is drama aplenty in Looping

nance Of a famous clown, yet a
happy ending has been given the
tale and it has been lauded by film
critics and film fans alike wherever
the picture has been shown.
At the head of the distinguished
foreign cast is Werner Kraus, who,
to Europeans, has filled the vacan-
cy left with the coming to America
of Emil Jannings. Kraus is now
peer of the leading artists in Eu-

one why he enjoys distinction. He

INSPECTORS TO
REMOVE FRUIT
All Citrus Must Be Off
Trees By March 81,
Hoidale Says

All citrus fruit must be off the
tree by March 81, was the warning
issued Monday by A. P. Hoidale,
in charge of the force Of govern
ment inspectors in charge Of the
fruit worm quarantine. Plans are
being made for a thorough inSpec-
ton of all Valley citrus trees in
Early April, and fruit found there
on will be removed.
inspectors are urging owners of
citrus trees to make preparations
to clean all the fruit from the trees
before March 81" Hoidale said.
The 30-day extension of the ship
ping season granted the citrus in
tereStS of the Valley this season, has
shortened the host free period to
approximately six months. The in
SpectorS report some groves already
cleaned of all fruit. Beginning the
first day of April the inspectors
will make an inspection of all trees,
both in groves and in town yards,
to see that this regulation Of the
quarantine is enforced. The require-
ments are that all citrus fruit, ex-
cept lemons and sour lines, be re-
moved from the trees before March
l. This includes all green or off
bloom" fruit that would ripen dur
ing the spring or summer months.
Especial attention is called to the
fact that sour oranges are included
in the fruits that must be removed
from the trees"
1t is pointed out by the inspec-
tors that, besides being a require
ment Of the quarantine, it is de-
cidedly beneficial to the trees for
this fruit to be taken. off. All the
the energy Of the trees is then CEN
tered upon producing the new crop
