The San Bernardino Sun has "called" Friend William Richardson, state treasurer, candidate for the Republican nomination for governor, for having issued a statement in which he showed that the state expenditures for April exceeded collections by a little more than $3,000,000. "We are wondering," says the Sun, "what possible explanation there will be for the oversight in failing to show that the receipts in February exceeded expenditures by $20,000,000 or $30."

The San Bernardino Sun has called "Friend William Richardson, state treasurer, candidate for the Republican nomination for governor, for having issued a statement in which he showed that the state expenditures for April exceeded collections by a little more than $3,000,000." "We are wondering," says the Sun, "what possible explanation there will be for the oversight in failing to show that the receipts in February exceeded expenditures by $20,000,000 or $30,000,000? For, of course, the state of California is just like the county of San Bernardino: Taxes, are all collected in about two months of the year. Naturally, in months when there are no collections the outgo exceeds the income. But the fact is hardly campaign argument—at least it is rather specious campaign argument." Friend Richardson has not always been fair in his campaign. He has based his fight entirely on "extravagances in state government." In line with his statement concerning receipts and expenditures for the month of April is his often repeated charge that Governor Stephens and his administration are alone responsible for a state tax total of $91,000,000 for the two-year period, 1922-1923. Richardson knows but does not state how much of that $91,000,000 was voted upon themselves by the people of this state for highway, school and other purposes, how much of it is fixed by statute, how much of it goes to the University of California, and how much of it is entirely beyond the control of the state administration. Without doubt there are extravagances enough in state government in this state as well as in others. But the people of the state have a right to expect campaigns for such a high office as that of governor will be conducted with sincerity. Wool-pulling can be overdone. Sometimes the wool is pulled down so far that the taxpayer sees over the top, and that is what has occurred in relation to the statement concerning the receipts and expenditures of the state for April; every taxpayer knows that taxes are not paid in monthly payments. REFINEMENTS ADDED TO FORD ENCLOSED CARDS Demand Exceeds Supply as Rush Season Approaches FOUR-FOURS CLUB MEETS The Four-Fours club were entertained on Wednesday evening last by Mr. and Mrs. A. B. McCord at their beautiful new home on North Angeles street. The guests came attred in old-time costumes, some of which were truly remarkable and provoked a great deal of mirth. The ladies all looked beautiful, some with long trains and bouffant sleeves, others with houp-skirts and demure poke bonnets. The men in several decidedly passe styles, some wearing high silk hats, were a very handsome bunch. Dinner was served early in the evening and later the usual games of whist was played. Miss Winifred Mplrose won the ladies' prize and J. W. Wallop the men's. When marriage is a failure it is because one or both parties to its are failures. Who remembers the good little boy who would run errands for a penny? He was Only a Kid He came into our store on last Mothers' only a few pennies— That lad left our shop with a flower for mother that ever lived—HIS MOTHER.

HOWARD E. GAY Florist 120 N. Los Angeles The national effort at observance will be symbolized by an impressive ceremony over the body of the unknown soldier, in the national cemetery at Arlington, Va. Tribute will be paid to the unknown mother of this soldier, who was buried with distinctive honors last Armistice day. Ceremonies will be held over the graves of war dead in other parts of the country. It is planned to have Legion and Auxiliary members unite in community services to be held in all fighting, and the people of every neutral country have seen enough of it. They are not eager any more to kill and be killed. They know the hollowness of the old catchwords with which statesmen charmed millions to war fury. They know the hollowness and futility of war itself. The statesmen know, too. They understand now how little can be gained from victory and how much can be lost in defeat. They know that there are literally no victors of the last war, and that another war would leave even less possibility of gain, in... will be symbolized by an impressive ceremony over the body of the unknown soldier, in the national cemetery at Arlington, Va. Tribute will be paid to the unknown mother of this soldier, who was buried with distinctive honors last Armistice day. Ceremonies will be held over the graves of war dead in other parts of the country. It is planned to have Legion and Auxiliary members unite in community church services, to be held in all towns on the afternoon of Mother’s Day. Auxiliary units will arrange concerts in hospitals in which there are veterans of the late war and programs of entertainment also will be given in orphan asylum in which are children of men of the world war. The Auxiliary also will promote the observance of established features of the day, such as church attendance and the preaching of appropriate sermons and the urging of everyone to write or wire his mother on that day, or send her flowers. SUBDIVIDING IRVINE PROPERTY Seven hundred and seventy-five acres on the Irvine ranch, adjoining Costa-Mesa on the east, is being plotted for subdivision into five and ten acre tracts, following purchase of the acreage by Bryan and Bradford, of Los Angeles. The consideration was not made public, but those competent to estimate the value of the property placed the sales price at approximately $80,000. Bryan and Bradford is the Los Angeles firm which placed on the market the subdivision known as the Fairview Farms tract, which has been entirely disposed of, according to reports. The 775-acre tract lies along the Newport Beach boulevard, extending from Palisades road to the east line of the South Santa Ana subdivision, which is part of the Costa Mesa. The Los Angeles firm had been negotiating with James Irvine for the past two months for the purchase of the acreage, according to reports from Costa Mesa. Another activity at Costa Mesa was reported in the sale of one of the few remaining five-acre tracts on Victoria avenue to C. Stenland, who recently arrived from Minneapolis. The five acres has been planted to apples, pears, plums and peaches, a new house has been built and equipment prepared They are not eager any more to kill and be killed. They know the hollowness of the old catchwords with which statesmen charmed millions to war fury. They know the hollowness and futility of war itself. The statesmen know, too. They understand now how little can be gained from victory and how much can be lost in defeat. They know that there are literally no victors of the last war, and that another war would leave even less possibility of gain, in indemnities or extension of empire. If the nations fight, therefore, they will fight in sheer malice, to destroy each other; and they are hardly so insane as to attempt that. The real struggle is for economic advantages by peaceful means. It may be easily seen, therefore, wherein real preparedness lies. The big game today is the laying of economic lines for reconstruction and future development and it is this work with which statesmanship ought to be primarily concerned rather than questions of armies and navies and balances of military power and punishment for past offenses. Orange county baseball fans are watching with interest the stick work of Kenneth Williams, member of the St. Louis American league team. Among those who are most interested in Williams’ work are the entire population of Laguna Beach. Friday Williams polled out his tenth circuit drive of the season. Right now Williams is ahead of the Babe Ruth record for 1921. Ruth did not land his tenth homer last year until May 12. Mr. and Mrs. Williams spent last winter at Laguna Beach, having been drawn there through the efforts of Mr. and Mrs. Jimmy Austin, the latter also being a member of the St. Louis team. The Austins have been wintering at Laguna for several years. Before leaving for spring training Williams declared there was no place like Laguna Beach and made reservations for next winter. When you become discouraged and think you can't "come back," think of Rip Van Winkle. He came back after he'd been asleep for twenty years. If a man tells the truth about himself in the smoking compartment of a Pullman you're safe in lending him all the money he asks without security. The dangerous age of man is any age until he's so old he has to be fed with a spoon. Husband and wife argue as to who is "boss" of the house for a while, but not after the first child comes.

It is pretty safe these days to buy a well advertised product because it is one that has to make good in order to justify advertising and insure repeat sales. —The name, Daesser's Bread, has come to signify a high quality Bread.

GATES Los Angeles St. ATTENTION. have you ever had one of Sunday dinners at 1, upstairs, for 50 a feast, but Sunday, Dr. Guy Kay, of Placentia, was winner in the suits for damages brought by H. L. McClellan and his daughter. Miss Nina McClellan, as the result of au automobile collision. Miss McCelilan claimed to have been permanently injured in a collision between the McCellian and Kay automobiles near Placentia last fall. She asked $10,000 damages. Her father brought suit for $321, claiming that amount as damages to his car. Attorney A. E. Koepsel appeared for the plaintiffs at the trial, which was held Wednesday and Judge R. Y. Williams' court. Dr. Kay was represented by Attorneys W. L. Gilbert and Scarborough, Forgy and Reinhaus, and successfully defended himself from being held responsible for the accident. He declared that Donald McClellan, son of H. L. McCellian, was driving the McClellan car and was to blame for the collision. The jury verdict was in favor of Dr. Kay in both actions. His friends generally believe that one who has ready money should be P. F.
