A POINT OF VIEW (continued from page two) school system is performing its greatest work.—William T. Harris. We Despise Aristocracy, Yet Ape It The war gave us a taste of tyranny, and we like it; we ask for more. Not the practice of tyranny, for the war did not pass the power of the tyrant to the people; but the burden of tyranny. We have been told what to do so long that we are still looking for someone to tell us what to do. Our bankruptcy of initiative is proved by our inane waiting for "the government" to do it, and we little reck that the government is composed of a handful of individuals like ourselves, involved in the same perplexity and helplessness. Take the human components of government one by one, and what are they? Not supermen. Men like ourselves. One in many a leader. The remainder mere clerks and priests of the ritual of legislative procedure. We want to be tyrannized over for our good, but there is not enough good tyranny available in the governments for that. The only government on earth today that is capable of ordering its people to go to work and enforcing a conscription of labor, is the Russian Soviet government. The order to go to work is the order that would save the United States, but who would issue it? Who would enforce it? Yes, and who would obey it? Let's Start Whoever is responsible for the platform setting at the concert in the White Temple a week ago Tuesday night has my heartfelt appreciation. The setting of the platform was just right—evidences of an artistic mind were there. The use of a floor lamp, chandelier, or whatever it is called, was certainly a touch of charm. In fact, the whole evening's event was managed the way I like to see things managed, even down to the programs. They were neat—no gaudiness—and were in harmony with the whole evening's artistic event. Everything seemed to transpire without a hitch. The idea of having the collection baskets on tables at the doors was a clever one, the success of which eliminated the intrusion of the "commercial taint" into the program later on. Considering the meager amount of advertising, the crowd was delightfully large. The size of the crowd indicates that when Anaheim gets educated up to these artistic evenings in the M. E. church, a vacant seat will be an exception. The program of songs and piano selections by Mr. Gage Christopher, basso-cantante, and Mr. Albert J. Adams, pianist, and accompanist, respectively, was splendid; of a high-class and classical order; a kind of a program that the better class of the "better class" of New York and other large cities pay five dollars to see and hear, while Anaheim was privileged to offer what the impulses dictated upon entering. The offering of these two artists was an immense treat to one's artistic nature. I am glad the movies did not "get me" that night. And the "powers behind the throne" (and of the beautiful lamp) that manipulated ALL the arrangements from beginning to end roof; on another library building vacant space that are underded to the flame a delight to the one may happy view of San Francisco beautiful civic presented with smoke, no freight traffic, the beautiful city.

We do not see how such a club could advance the price of shoes. If no one in America will wear a shoe until September we guarantee that ladies' pumps with no more leather in them than there is paper in a postage stamp will not sell for $20 and up.

Two graduating class exercises (up to this writing) that came under my observation had to do with "work."

Our tendencies toward democracy are tendencies downward. True democracy supposes a high, not a low standard, and can exist only by high standards being actualized. True democracy comes only when all have been raised to the level of what we formerly knew as aristocracy. Equality is maintained only when the levelling is upward. Equality downward breeds inequality, because of the tendency of cream to rise to the top. We pretend to despise aristocracy, but in reality we do not despise it. We ape its less worthy appearances. In monarchical countries they respected the aristocracy, but did not ape them; here in America we sedulously ape them, but do not respect them. We imitate the follies and extravagances and frivolities and vices of the idle rich. They are the model of the young man and woman of America in everything from dress to dissipation. At Last! At Last! At last, an event in Anaheim has been attended to in a way to suit me. Art and Politics The two big political party convention are far apart in principles, in distance of place of action, and in surroundings. The convention Coliseum in Chicago is a mammoth building of fifty-year ago architecture and style of construction, pretty nearly entirely submerged by medocre surrounding, consisting of factories, old residences, and smoke and heavy traffic. Nothing along the line of the beautiful invokes one admiration. San Francisco's convention battleground is much different. The civic center of San Francisco is getting to be a beautiful spot. On one side of an immense, beautifully-planted plaza is the beautiful big convention auditorium; on the other side is the magnificent city hall with its gold-leafed ANAHEIM GAZETTE DIFFICULTIES EXPECTED IN WALNUT SHIPPING Feared Slow Transportation Will Interfere with Marketing Crop Prospects for moving the coming walnut crop into the eastern markets with more speed than last year are not very bright, according to information brought to the attention of the California Walnut Growers association at the annual meeting held in Los Angeles. Slow transportation of last season is more or less responsible for the large hold-over now in the hands of the association, transportation facilities being crippled so that the early shipments did not get into the market in time for the Thanksgiving and Christmas trade. The average time to New York was thirty days, with shipments often enroute from forty to fifty days. Under normal conditions the average time to place a consignment in New York was eighteen days. It is believed that the situation the coming season will be worse than last. Large carry-overs in the hands of eastern dealers resulted and the demand for the product dropped out before all the nuts were placed. It is believed the present hold-over from last year will be cleaned up before the new crop is ready for market. The product on hand will be available for the Thanksgiving and Christmas markets, and it is believed the demand at this time will result in a good clean-up. The addition of five exchanges to the assalcoation will give the organization about the same amount of nuts the coming year as was handled last season. The yield, however, will not be as heavy, particularly in those sections where old orchards rule. Youth means a temperamental prodominance of courage over timidity, of the appetite for adventure over the love of ease. This often exists in a person of fifty more than an a youth of twenty. It is reported that, because of the lack of shipping facilities, there will be a surplus of walnuts this year. I wonder if it wouldn't be a good idea to invite the public hereabouts to help themselves to the same as they did to a recent surplus of cabbage. Hey! Something new to me—music stores selling noise makers. We have gone from jazz to "worser." Years wrinkle the skin; but to give up enthusiasm wrinkles the soul. What's happened to the old-time hospitality of the churches? I have "sneaked" in to every church in this town and out again—and no one was any the wiser. There was a time when a stunt like that could not be performed. Too much jazz! Worry, doubt, self-interest, fear and despair—these are the long, long years that bow the heart and turn the greening spirit back to dust. Experience is the experience we experience when we experience an experience. Dictionary. Are conventions conventions because they are conventional in their conventions?—Myseuf. The theaters will give us what we want if we will show plainly by our patronage, given or withheld, just what we do want.—Sant Ana Register. Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years. People grow old only by deserting their ideals. It took the Anaheim city government a long time to find out there was an old-time "quack" doctor medicine show in town! Remember the steam kettle—though up to its neck in hot water, it continues to sing. Anybody can buy pretty things to have and to wear, if they have the money, but it is different to create fore the new crop is ready for market. The product on hand will be available for the Thanksgiving and Christmas markets, and it is believed the demand at this time will result in a good clean-up. The addition of five exchanges to the assalcoation will give the organization about the same amount of nuts the coming year as was handled last season. The yield, however, will not be as heavy, particularly in those sections where old orchards rule. In young orchards the yield will be good. It was estimated by members at the annual meeting that Whittier and the section south will have about 70 per cent of last year's crop. The state crop will be between 25 and 30 per cent short of last season. All the officers of the association were re-elected. They are C. C. Teague, Santa Paula, president; Ralph McNees, Whittier, vice president; W. T. Webber, secretary-treasurer; Carlyle Thorpe, manager. Directors of the Santa Ana Walnut Growers association were present as follows: Ransom Reid, Fred Rowland, S. W. Stanley, Oscar Gruenewald and Harry Lewis. HAVE YOU ANY 18 PER CENT BONDS? American financiers say that an European bond, subject to all our local and federal taxes, would have to bear 18 per cent interest to be as good an investment as our 4½ bonds that are exempt. That ought to wake up a lot of people. When you are figuring the interest return on your Liberty bonds, figure in tax exemptions. The big corporations and private estates figure that way. It has been said that our Frist Liberty Loan bonds yield as high as 13 per cent to some investors because of their almost complete exemption from taxes. Present prices of Liberty bonds yield in one instance as high as 6.20 per cent on the market value if held until maturity. With tax exemption features taken into consideration, that gives them a high yield. When you are asked to sell or exchange your Liberty bonds to invest in gonds or stocks on which a higher return is promised, don't go off "half-cocked." Your Liberty bonds may be worth more. dollars a ton, the volume of these added substances often amounting to fifty per cent of the whole, and running normally from twenty to sixty per cent. And to add insult to injury, the mass of this so-called fertilizer is very often saturated with water, adding from fifteen to forty per cent to the weight and incidentally to the cost per ton, it being a common thing to find railroad cars loaded with fertilizer dripping moisture, the result of a generous application of aqua pura at point of shipment. There have been no court prosecutions so far against those responsible, although at the suggestion of County Sealer of Weights and Measures McPhee some thirty-five carloads have been rejected and thrown back on the hands of the shippers within the last two years, while in numerous other cases settlement has been effected and payment made by the consignee on the basis of a liberal discount from the amount of the original charge, the alternative being total rejection of the shipment. County Sealer McPhee is authority for the statement that in the case of a shipment of two corioads of fertilizer to this county recently, careful analysis revealed the presence of sixty-two per cent of sand, the adulteration being determined by weighing a fair sample from each car and then weighing the sand precipitated after washing. As an off-hand estimate it may be mentioned that several hundred thousand dollars is paid out annually for fertilizer in this county, say two hundred thousand as the lowest figure, and this rate, it would appear that at least one-third of the sum is spent for material that is absolutely worthless for the purpose intended, and often a positive injury to the groves and orchards, as in many instances seeds and roots of noxious weeds are mixed It took the Anaheim city government a long time to find out there was an old-time "quack" doctor medicine show in town! Remember the steam kettle—though up to its neck in hot water, it continues to sing. Anybody can buy pretty things to have and to wear, if they have the money, but it is different to create them. God doesn't buy anything; He creates. So, when a person creates something instead of buying it, that person reflects God qualities. A scientist has devised a method for photographing sound. We do hope it won't be used on a jazz band. There is enough horror in life already. Santa Ana Register. A Texas woman is quoted in the papers as saying that a woman in love is a fool. How about a man in love—is he A-dam fool? The supreme court has made it impossible to become intoxicated from liquor, but that doesn't prevent anyone from having autointoxication. What this country needs under present conditions is to sell more hoes and fewer auto wrenches. A sign on a building in Los Angeles reads thusly: "No loafing allowed around these premises except the workmen." The following headlines appeared in the newspapers of a nearby town: "Redlands Graduates Get Their Sheepskins." "Miss Pannie Smart Will Be Principal." Present prices of Liberty bonds yield in one instance as high as 6.20 per cent on the market value if held until maturity. With tax exemption features taken into consideration, that gives them a high yield. When you are asked to sell or exchange your Liberty bonds to invest in gonds or stocks on which a higher return is promised, don't go off "half-cocked." Your Liberty bonds may be worth more. A bond of a foreign government advertised to yield 7½ per cent sounds good, but if that foreign government is going to tax it, as it has a right to do, the chances are the tax will be heavy and it may result in a return to you lower than the bonds of your own government. The same holds true of the bonds of our American industries. As a rule, they have not the tax exemption features of government bonds. Think twice and don't do it. Hold your bonds and buy more of them if you can. PAYING HIGH PRICES FOR WORTHLESS FERTILIZER County Sealer McPhee Says Recent Shipment Was 62 Per Cent Sand The cost of fertilizer, or rather the amount of money paid out by Orange county fruit growers for worthless stuff foisted upon them as fertilizer, has become such an important item that an insistent demand is being made for protection against the fertilizer dealers who have heretofore made a practice of film-flamming their customers by selling them quantities of sand, clay and other foreign substances mixed with fertilizer for the real thing and at a real price, the figure ranging from seven to fifteen As an off-hand estimate it may be mentioned that several hundred thousand dollars is paid out annually for fertilizer in this county, say two hundred thousand as the lowest figure, and this rate, it would appear that at least one-third of the sum is spent for material that is absolutely worthless for the purpose intended, and often a positive injury to the groves and orchards, as in many instances seeds and roots of noxious weeds are mixed with the fertilizer and thus carried onto the land where later they prove a source of ceaseless trouble and expense to the grower. But all this is to be changed if plans now maturing do not miscarry, for County Sealer McPhee has decided to invoke the law in the premises and last Saturday after a conference with the district attorney at which the subject of adulteration of fertilizer was discussed, it was agreed that the very next time sufficient evidence of violation of the fertilization law can be procured by Sealer McPhee, prosecution will be instituted and the case pushed to the limit. And this is the law as laid down in Act 1157, General Laws, as amended in 1911-1915: "No person shall sell, offer or expose for sale in this state any pulverized leather, hair, ground hoofs, horns or wool waste, raw, steamed, roasted, or in any form, street sweepings, or the dung or urine of any domestic animal, mixed with, or in combination with, water artificially added thereto, or with any sand, soil or other material not commonly used for bedding domestic animals, as a fertilizer or as an ingredient for fertilizer or manure without an explicit statement of the fact in printing or writing conspicuously placed thereon and affixed to every package, container, car or Another Royal Suggestion COOKIES and SMALL CAKES From the NEW ROYAL COOK BOOK THEN the children ramp in hungry as bears, here are some some, economical dethat will not only be bed with glee, but will the most ravenous mate in a most wholemanner.

CITY TRUSTEES AFTER TRAVELING SHOWS Medicine Organization With Free Vaudeville Adjunct Held Forth Nightly, But City Got No License some extent by having this ootside comepetition, while the promoters get rich out of their medical trade, which is the real cause of their coming to town. PACIFIC COAST COMMERCE The party of legislators about to visit the Pacific ocean countries need not be deterred by sarcastic flings by insular scribes who fail to see the value of foreign travel. If congress would provide for placing government transports at the disposal of well-selected parties of legislators charged with the making of appropriations for the support of the army, navy, foreign commerce, the merchant marine, etc., the saving would amount to millions and the money expended would accomplish some good. It is well that members of congress should visit the countries bordering on the Pacific. The raw material of the world is coming from these regions. The future of the human race lies in the Pacific ocean basin. The problem of adjusting the relations of the Occident and the Orient is one that demands the earnest effort of all Americans, and especially Americans, in congress. The lack of knowledge of international questions has cost the United States untold millions, which could have been saved by a few educational trips by legislators at a cost so small as to be negligible. Men are sent to congress because of their supposed ability to legislate, but in many matters they cannot have this ability without first having the necessary knowledge of their subject. The development of American commerce in the Pacific is contingent upon the wisdom of congress in dealing with the merchant marine, the tariff, the immigration question and other subjects which are practically a closed book to men who know nothing of the Pacific area itself. No American CITY TRUSTEES AFTER TRAVELING SHOWS Medicine Organization With Free Vaudeville Adjunct Held Forth Nightly, But City Got No License The city trustees discussed the presence here of a free show organization which has been holding forth on a vacant lot for several weeks past giving a vaudeville performance, and incidentally passing out the word that all those who think they are afflicted with kidney trouble and other diseases to call at a certain address, where they could be cured or not. No medicine was sold or given away during the performance, and as no admission was charged for the show, it was this technical point that was the means of the city losing a nice little license fee. The tax generally is $10 per day, where an admission is charged. But it is said the main object of the latest amusement concern is to boost up a certain doctor who came with the traveling organization, and who from all accounts has been gathering in some nice fees for medical services and advice. At the recent meeting of the trustees the city attorney and marshal were instructed to investigate the case and enforce the local license ordinance. The show has been carried on for several weeks, but no license fee has been collected. Should the present ordinance not be effective in this case it should be amended so as to make traveling shows pungle up. The local theaters pay license and are injured to pose ability to legislate, but in many matters they cannot have this ability without first having the necessary knowledge of their subject. The development of American commerce in the Pacific is contingent upon the wisdom of congress in dealing with the merchant marine, the tariff, the immigration question and other subjects which are practically a closed book to men who know nothing of the Pacific area itself. No American can properly be regarded as a well-rounded and capable legislator on a national scale if he has not visited the four quarters of the United States. Similarly, no member of congress can any longer be regarded as competent to deal with legislation affecting other nations and the outlying possessions of the United States unless he has gained first-hand kniwledge of his subject. The E. E. Remsberg family of Santa Ana has suddenly sprung into prominence, Mrs. Remsberg being a sister of Senator Harding. The senator visited at their home a couple of years ago.
