K. Luthor anil .Religious Director K. H. Kmett. These gatherings were, respectively, the conference at the White House in Washington, by invitation of Presi dent Taft, to consider the condition of young men In heathen countries; the men's religious movement, attended by 300 representatives, in Buffalo, and the international convention of the Young 1 Men's Christian association at Toronto, October 28 to 31, inclusive. President Letts declared that he re ceived great inspiration from the Washington and Buffalo assemblages, and that he did not believe the United States and Canada could furnish 2000 as keen, able, alert, businesslike, spir itual-minded men as were at Toronto, and that these men could not be as sembled by any other organization there than the Young Men's Christian association. He stated that ho had left no stone unturned to bring the convenion to Los Angeles in 1913. ASSURANCES OF CONVENTION As Mr. Letts is a member of trio in ternational committee, the decision of which is flnal, and since strong assur ances of friendship for LO3 Angeles have been given by various members of that committee, it is confidently ex pected that the convention will come here. President Letts said that the claims of Los Angeles were presented with strength and vigor, and over 4000 pieces of printed matter adver tising California were distributed. He reported the outcome of the Washing ton conference as the promise of $1, --250,000 for association work in foreign lands, the object being to secure with in the next three years forty-nine new buildings and fifty additional secre taries. Secretary Luther spoke largely con cerning the Toronto convention, and said that while the association showed 100 per cent growth materially during the past five years and 200 per cent of its educational work, its greatest progress was along religious lines, where a growth of 480 per cent is shown. He said further that the con ventiion ratified heartily the Portland test, which defines the movement as being founded solidly on the religious and evangelical basis. Religious Director Emett described the plan formulated at Buffalo for the campaign among ninety cities of the United States to present the claim of Jesus Christ to men and boys. He stated that It was the hope that Los Angeles would bo one of these cities, each one of which would be visited by trained specialists. AUTOISTS DEFY ORDERS AND SPEED OVER COURSE SANTA MONICA, Nov. 20.—Hun dreds of automobile parties visited San ta Monica today to take a run over the race course which is to be used In the big event next Thursday. The po lice issued orders that no one should be allowed to exceed the speed limit to day and officers were on the lookout for speeders, but despite the precautions there were many machines that trav eled the course at a rapid clip. A well known Los Angeles surgeon made the run around the course this afternoon and confided to friends on his return to the beach that his speed ometer at one time registered 65 miles. This speed was reached on the long stretch between the Soldiers' Hotne and Ocean avenue on San Vicente bou levard.

Pierce Delivers Sermon on Necessity of Renewing Duty Pledges The Rev. C. C. Pierce, D. D., pas tor of Memorial Baptist church, preached a Thanksgiving day sermon yesterday on "An American Holiday." Ho said in part: "This Thanksgiving day which we are all going to observe In various ways next Thursday is both a holy day and a holiday. I, for one, am glad of holi days, days of rest, of recreation, of leisure and spontaneity—days when the slave at the wheels of toil may be free; when the burden may be for a moment, at least, lifted from should ers too weary. The more of these days tho better. More days of leisure, more i reduction in hours of toil, more sun shine, hope, cheer, comfort and even 1 luxury in the lives of men and women : who toll is to be the pTogTam of our industrial life for the future. "The movement Is on, and nothing on earth can stop it. Anything which peeks to stem this rising tide of human advancement will be swept down into oblivion as a cob house before an ava lanche. And this is so because Thanks giving Is still a holy day—a day when we look up to Gad, recall our marv elous history, think on the noble ideals In the hearts of our ancestors, gain inspiration from considering their Ideals, pledge ourselves anew to our fluty, ask ourselves Ifhat we are here for, seek to realize our mission to the world and devoutly seek to fit ourselves to become potent factors in an ideal human destiny. "In all else that claims our atten tion on Thanksgiving clay let us not forget this. And let us remember that these are the things which will make America great. What makes a city great and strong? Not architecture's, graceful strength, Not factories' extended length, But men who see the civic wrong And give their lives to make It right, And on Its darkness turn the LIGHT. SAYS AUSTRALIAN MEAT IS IMPROPERLY HANDLED Sensational Charges Are Made Against London Dealers LONDON, Nov. 20.—Some surprising allegations about the manner in which Australian meat is handled In London have been made by a member of parlia ment of New South Wales This man is reported to have stated that he had seen men with» dirty boots walking over the carcases; that the meat was discharged into dirty Thames barges, in whioh bllgewater, cockroaches and fungus were to be seen, and that some times the meat remained In these in sanitary barges for a couple of days. Sir John Taverner, agent general for Victoria, gave a warm denial to these allegations. Sir John remarked that he could not understand how men with dirty boots were allowed "to walk over the carcases," as the men employed to unload the meat cargoes are in the habit of wearing shoes made and worn especially for the operation. The statement that the "meet remained in insanitary barges for a couple of days" was even more unlikely, to use a mild word. "In no country In the world," said Sir John, "are there greater powers given to the authorities under acts of parliament, especially tho recently en acted public health regulations as to food act, passed a year or so ago." A thoroughly experienced official Is employed by the Victoria government to watch the discharge of every cargo of meat and to see that it Is properly handled and dealt with, and the condi tion of every cargo Is reported to the agent general, in addition to which samples are taken away from time to time to be tested and inspected. Over and above this inspection on the part d"f the Victorian government the British government steps in with its exceedingly strict sanitary and health regulations. Sir John added that he had brought the question of the handling of the meat on arrival In London before the notice of the Incorporated Society of Meat Importers, and they were also looking after the discharge and proper handling of the meat.

About fifty guests enjoyed the hos pitality of Mr. and Mrs. Edaon, whose Sunday evenings have an atmosphere of distinction that is as unique as- it is delightful. TEXAS VILLAGE HEART OF A GREAT INDUSTRY SAN ANTONIO, Texts, Nov. 20.— Down In a quiet little part of Texas there Is a small village called Junc tion. It is one of the largest pecan markets in the world. Just at present the streets are lined with wagons loaded with pecans every day. Al ready more than 300,000 pounds nave been marketed there. Present indica tions are that the crop marketed at Junction will be more than 500,000 pounds. This is a southwest Texas crop to which practically no attention whatever is given. It is, nevertheless, one of the most profitable in the world. Some Idea of the possibilities of its de velopment may be gathered from the fact that the market price for pecans varies from 1% to 20 cents per pound. Few other products in the world vary so extensively in price. Throughout the south, however, some small effort is now being made to give attention to the pecan trees, \tfth a view to im provement of the crop. As a result of this the crop of some of the better trees is in demand for use by the nur series. The crop of one tree at Junc tion has been contracted for by a nur sery for the next five years at 35 cents a pound. On some of the larger ranches of southwest Texas, where there are sev eral miles of river bottom, the income from the pecans is sufficient to P<iy 10 per cent interest on the money in vested in the ranch, in spite of the fact that absolutely no care is given the trees. As a means for pointing out the value of the pecan tree, the Texas State Nurseryman's association has made an offer to the public schools of the state to supply the very finest t,of trees to every public school which will request the trees to be planted In the school yards. Efforts are also being made thTough out the state by several organizations to induce the planting of pecan trees for shade. Strenuous efforts have been made in this part of the Btate to in form the owners of large numbers of pecan trees how to gather the crop without damaging the tree. In many places trees have been severely dam aged by the thrashing which brings down the pecans. The production of nuts of all kinds in this country is becoming Increas ingly important. Government statis tics show quite plainly that in spite of tb,e great progress made with almonds, English walnuts, pecans and others, the proportion ot the total of nuts im ported from other countries Is steadily increasing. Many persons consider this due to the increased number of veg etarians in this country, and there is substantial Indication that this is true. Present market conditions point to the pecan as one of lie most profitable of southern crops.
