SANTA CRUZ EVENING NEWS, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 22, 1917. PAGE EIGHT. 01 PEOPLE OF DAVENPORT Social IIIIEIIIIIIIIHUHIIUUIIIIIUIIIIBUIIIIIIllIIllg Victory Loaf OF TOBACCO HUNDREDS The Golden Sheaf Bakery is putting such a loaf on the market because of the great demand for a "War Loaf." This new loaf is made approximately of 50 per cent wheat flour and 50 per cent of other cereals, and is therefore a true "War Loaf," saving about half of the wheat for other purposes. We are certain that this loaf will prove to be a wonderful seller for two reasons 1 Because it appeals to the patriotism of the people, and, second, because it can be sold at a greatly reduced price, which in this time of stress we think will be a strong appeal. 24 OZ.

(SEAL) Clerk. John P. Fitzgerald, attorney for EW ID mm GRANTED IS FOR The entertainment at Davenport last night given by the employes of the Pacific Gas and Electric company for the benefit of the fund for tobacco for our boys In France, proved an amazing success. A telephone message this morning from A. F.

Hawley, who had been tireless in his efforts in behalf of the entertainment, told The News that he 'believed the sum of $130 would yet be reached as the result of the affair. This would mean that the patriotic employes of the corporation by the good people of Davenport, have made it possible to secure about 500 kits of tobacco for the boys. Each kit will supply enough smokes for a week. The entertainment was held at Foresters' hall in Davenport, which was crowded to the doors, many having to be turned away, unable to gain admittance. The first thing on the program was a movie show), of three reels.

Two of these were of an educational character, and related to the system of the Pacific Gas and Electric company. The second picture was a comedy that made a decided hit. Removal Sale: Millinery at cut prices. Double S. H.

One evening after a long march they were so tired that they lay down for a short sleep, when it would have been wiser and better had they remained on watch for the enemy.

Among the sol diers was a little drummer boy, whose eyes, like those of his elders, were fast shut. Just before he fell asleep he had been eating his rations, and some crumbs had fallen on the head of his drum. A little wren, perched overhead in one of the trees, saw these crumbs and flew down to eat them. As she hopped on the drum the tapping of her beak wakened the little drummer. He opened his eyes and was startled to see the enemy advancing.

Quickly he beat the signal of alarm which roused the soldiers and put them on the defense. The skill of the king, William III, won the day, July 12, 1690, the battle of the Boyne, hut if it had not been for the little wren the fortune might have been different. IN AT THE FRONT Then followed a pianoforte solo by Mrs. E. O.

Winsatt; legerdermain exhibition by H. S. Dusenberry; vocal solo by A. F. Hawley.

The roulette wheel was so well patronized that the difficulty was( in (handling the crowd. Then there was the El Dorado fishing pond. It also won much patronage. S. G.

Maynard of San Jose, superintendent of the division; F. R. George of Oakland, chief road dispatcher, and F. E. Skinner of Oak land, assistant road dispatcher, assisted in the success of the entertainment.

Mrs. Hawley and Mrs. Winsatt had charge of the fish pond and icecream booth, and their success went far to making such a splendid financial showing. All those who took part in the entertainment are emplo-es of the Pacific Gas and Eleciric company. The idea originated in the effort to help the tobacco fund start ed in Santa Cruz by The News.

The Davenport contribution will go by special check to the American Tobacco company, which will supply the tobacco and ship it under government authority to the men at the front. The success of the entertainment last night has inspired the Davenport employes of the Pacific Gas and Electric company to give a similar enter tainment in aid of the Red Cross in January.

RENNIE Phone 400 J. H. HORSNYDER DRUGGIST AND 132 Pacific Avenue. EVERYONE THINKS HE CAN DRA WHIS OWN WILL. One of the popular fallacies of the country is the belief that no particular skill is needed to draw up a will.

Arthur Train, writing in the October American Magazine, says: "The most important document that a man is usually called upon to execute during his entire lifetime Is his own will. It is generally, however, a transaction which he is perfectly content to let take care of itself, hit or miss any old way. He supposes that if he writes down 'what he wants done with his signs it, and gets somebody to wit are eye, CHEMIST Phone 59. ness it, that his heirs, executors, administrators and assigns will go blithely on their way, rejoicing forever. It is almost impossible to convince people that there is really any care necessary in drawing a will.

Yet, even if a will is properly drawn, there nine chances out of ten that, unless the attorney watches with eagle it will not be legally signed and witnessed."
