D. Ball, Republican nominee for assemblyman, will attend the state Republican convention to be held at Sacramento on Tuesday, September 19. This convention will adopt a platform for the state Republican ticket nominated in the primaries on August 29, and will select a state central committee to handle the campaign for the ticket. This convention will adopt a plat-cordance with the provisions of the state primary election act. Delegates to the convention are all those who have received Republican nominations for state offices, for assemblymen and state senators, and those who have been elected as delegates in those senatorial districts in which there are hold-over senators. It is not known who will represent the thirty-ninth senatorial district, which is composed of Orange, Riverside and Imperial counties. No nomination was made by petition, and but few of the voters wrote in any name at the election.

T. Connelly, grand knight of the Santa Ana council, who announced that committee had been appointed for a picnic for the eighteenth K. C. district. The district includes councils at Pomona, Ontario, Anaheim and Santa Ana. Invitations have been extended to other councils in southern California. Arrangements for the picnic were made Monday night at a joint meeting of the members of the Santa Ana and Anaheim councils. Members of the various committees went to work to develop their respective features for the big day, according to Dr. Connelly. It is expected that D. Joseph Coyne of Los Angeles, state deputy, or another prominent K. C. man will deliver an address. The program will provide a number of athletic events for men, women and children. A number of prizes already have been donated by merchants. It is to be a basket picnic: Dr. Connelly particularly emphasized the statement that while the picnic is a Knights of Columbus affair, a cordial invitation is extended to non-Catholic friends to join in the pleasures of the day. The luncheon committee will supply coffee and orange juice free. A NUMBLE PERSON If the friends of James M. Cox, late Democratic candidate for president, have any aspirations for the political future of that loquacious gentleman, they had better send him a radio to come home and quit making himself ridiculous in European capitals. Cox seems incapable of recovering from the Wilson mania for American membership in the league of nations, and his utterances in Europe, which are cabled to the United States, are making it somewhat embarrassing for the Democratic party which is doing all it can to forget the league as a political issue. A London newspaper reporter recently had a seance with Mr. Cox, who is quoted as saying that his tour of Europe is "the most informative pilgrimage I ever made." He delighted the ears of the reporter by referring to Washington as a slaveholder and a distiller, and as for the league of nations, he still wants to "go in." Fact, the league appears to have been the shrine of his pilgrimage. Cox was not very complimentary to his patron, Mr. Wilson, for in speaking of iron, the most fundamental of our mineral resources, is unimpaired in availability for production. The supply of these basic products is hundreds of times greater than any possible requirement for many years to come. That being the case, it would seem that nature has set the stage this year for one of the greatest if not the greatest, eras of true prosperity this country has ever known. Abundant food and the essentials of industry are at hand. If in these circumstances our prosperity lapses and suffering comes it is clearly the fault of man. We are too greedy, or too stupid, or too selfish to obtain full enjoyment of the benefits lavished upon us. It might be well for us while fighting for political preferment, for power to impose our theories upon our fellow men, for ideals, or for material or cultural advantages to remember this fact. Man is born to error. In the present case man-made error is threatening to destroy the fruits of natural abundance. That thought, if taken home, should so reduce the egoism of those who directly and indictently are now driving the country toward economic catastrophe as to clear awaful artificial obstacles which they have raised to the enjoyment of the natural advantages of this land.

REFUSING PROSPERITY The government forecasts a 3,000,-000,000 bushel corn crop, the largest with three exceptions, in the history of American farming. Supplementing this there is the prospect of 200,000,-000 bushels of apples; a rye crop larger by one-fifth than last year, the second largest potato crop on record about 190,000,000 more bushels of oats than a year ago, and so on through most of the list of farm products. We need no government report to A London newspaper reporter recently had a seance with Mr. Cox, who is quoted as saying that his tour of Europe is "the most informative pilgrimage I ever made." He delighted the ears of the reporter by referring to Washington as a slaveholder and a distiller, and as for the league of nations, he still wants to "go in." In fact, the league appears to have been the shrine of his pilgrimage. Cox was not very complimentary to his patron, Mr. Wilson, for in speaking of Lloyd George he said he could not possibly return to the United States without seeing him as he is the "one outstanding world figure who has survived the war." The fact is that judging from the flashes of the Cox trip received via cable there is more of a fawning and service attitude displayed by the leader of the Democratic party than ever Thomas Jefferson would approve. There is a distinct reminder of that character created by Dickens—Uriah Heap, who was such "a numble person." However, if Cox will only come home and inject the league of nations issue into the present campaign it will furnish plenty of amusement to Republicans. A CLASS "A" COLLEGE Bringing the college of medicine and surgery ofthe University of the Philippines up to the recognized standard of class "A" colleges of that sort in the United States is one of the constructive works of an American medical man, Dr. Victor G. Heiser, who has summarized what has been done in a report to Governor General Wood. And if the Philippines had been independent the college would probably have reverted to just about what it was when the United States took over the islands, bolo lessons.

Of this amount, autoists who arrive here over the transcontinental highways are spending $43,574,000 and the remainder, it is estimated, is expended by visitors arriving on the trains or boats. That these figures are ultra-conservative is the opinion of officials of the auto club. They declare that 83,000 non-resident autos visited California last year, with an average of three people in each car, stopping in the state 70 days. It is estimated that each person spends five dollars a day while here. This is a low figure. Only half of the total expended is estimated as left in southern California, so it can be seen that the auto club has perhaps figured way below the amount that was actually brought into the state by visitors last year, and more will be brought in this year. Auto travel into southern California has increased 200 per cent annually since 1914, the date of the first signposting of the transcontinental highways by the auto club, it is stated, and long distance travel is still on the increase. LIFE IS LENGTHENING The average of human life in this country is lengthening. A great life insurance company makes assertion that the average span of existence has increased from 49.2 years in 1901 to 54.3 years in 1920. In less than a single generation they gain in the average length of life has been one-fifth. KEEP AWAY FROM EUROPE The fact that American tourists are not beloved in Europe is not in the least surprising. That the natives take all the money possible away from them is, in the circumstances, to be accepted as a matter of course. It is nothing over which to permit the feelings to be roiled. The simple method of avoiding the impositions is to stay away from Europe. The visitor who is there from other lands now suggests that he is controlled by the same crude emotion that lures spectators to the morgue. If, as he asserts, he is in quest of pleasure, the domain of mourning is not the place in which to seek it. Doubtless there are many called to Europe on legitimate errands. The great mass going thither represent idlers, with money that they flaunt before the eyes of the moneyless. Their presence and conduct necessarily must be an irritation. To observe them gambling at the resorts, or buying expensive raiment and dazzling gauds, sets up a desire to rob them sufficiently to make them quit their foolishness. A large part of the number flocking to Europe from this country never have taken the trouble to become acquainted with their own land. Here they may find scenic beauty not to be excelled in Europe, mountains as imposing, lakes as alluring, valleys as rich in verdure and bloom. By the side of the Pacific ocean, which they never have beheld, they could find every luxury and comfort. They might have access to these without the feeling that they had fallen among thves. They could learn considerable merely by crossing their own continent. But no, they prefer to go to far countries. Such, of course, is their privilege, but recital of the untoward experiences they undergo excites small sympathy. ALL BUSINESS BRANCHES Practical business men to teach practical business methods is the theory which the University of Southern California college of commerce is promoting under the direction of Dean Rockwell Hunt, who recently announced the addition of two new members for the faculty of the college when it opens the middle of September, for the fall semester. D. Walter Morton, who will become professor of accounting, has been sales manager of the J. C. Penney chain of department stores with headquarters in New York City, for the past three years. He is a graduate of Dickinson college and was made a certified public accountant by the Wisconsin board in 1915. Prof. Morton has held the positions of professor of accounting in the University of Illinois and the University of Wisconsin and was dean of the school of commerce of the University of Oregon for five years. He has conducted extension work in cost accounting with the Newark institute of arts and sciences and also classes in accounting in NewYork university. He will conduct classes in accounting, the analysis of financial statements and merchandising. Prof. John R. Riggleman will come to the University of Southern California from Harvard, where he has been an instructor in the graduate school of business administration. He holds the degree of master of business administration from Harvard, and has been actively engaged in business corporation promotion, factory management and marketing. He will teach agricultural economics, geography of commerce and business statistics. He will lalso make a survey of the basic industries of southern California and will assist Prof. G. E. Eberle in supervising the statistical surveys made by the students of the college. BETTER TRAFFIC RULES Changes of traffic regulations for many southern and central California towns and cities are in the air. Owners of automobiles are awakening to the necessity of better rules in cities for the parking of machines, for right and left turns in traffic and other laws, it is stated by authorities all over the southern counties. Following the investigation of traffic situations in California made by increase. LIFE IS LENGTHENING The average of human life in this country is lengthening. A great life insurance company makes assertion that the average span of existence has increased from 49.2 years in 1901 to 54.3 years in 1920. In less than a single generation thegain in the average length of life has been one-fifth. Several things contribute to this. For one thing, people generally are giving more attention to the laws of health and hygiene. They are leading physically cleaner lives. Another factor, which is not often credited in discussions of this kind, is the widespread prevalence of motoring for pleasure. A vast deal of travelling nowadays, both for pleasure and for business, is in automobiles, so that those who travel have the benefit of fresh air and the comfort of the traveling adds zest. This is promotive of health. Autoing and other forms of taking outings are adding to the years of the lives of men and women by relieving the stress and strain of strenuous modern life. Credit the automobile and good roads for aiding in increasing the average span of life. There are other agencies and influences which tend to prolong human existence. But temperate, clean living and abundance of exercise in the open air are among the chief factors. THE PRICE OF HONESTY An order of the acting postmaster of Washington, D. C., grants special clerks, in charge of registry and money order departments, $200 a year more than ordinary clerks. There have been many thefts lately in these departments, and the theory seems to be that for $200 more per year clerks can be secured who will be honest instead of dishonest. It opens up an interesting field of speculation. Can honesty be purchased for $200 a year? Hardly. Yet it may be true that the pay has been so low that honest men could not live on it, and the job attracted, in consequence, men who hoped to use it as a means of getting money dishonestly. If this latter is the case, then will honest men, who could not live on $1,800 a year, be attracted to the job now that it pays $2000? Is $200 enough to make the difference between honor and crime?

NoticeIsHerebyGiven:That1.theundersigned,solerefereeappointedbytheaboveentitledCourtinthe Changes of traffic regulations for many southern and central California towns and cities are in the air. Owners of automobiles are awakening to the necessity of better rules in cities for the parking of machines, for right and left turns in traffic and other laws, it is stated by authorities all over the southern counties. Following the investigation of traffic situations in California made by the engineers of the Automobile Club of Southern California, which resulted in the submission of a plan containing radical changes for the city of Los Angeles to the municipal government, a general consideration of present traffic laws by other cities is taking place: Auto club officials declare that there is a wide-spread sentiment throughout southern California for the improving of traffic regulations to facilitate the moving of automobile travel as expeditiously as possible. Each town and city, with only a few exceptions, is considering the situation within its own district to see if there are any possible improvements which will be of greater convenience both to motorists and to pedestrians. "Safety" is one of the prime factors in the stir which is motivating the city governments. There is a special desire to cut down the number of accidents which have been recorded this year throughout the state, and changes in traffic laws which will help along this line are now being considered. Better laws will mean fewer accidents, say the authorities, and this is the object of the projected improvements. A "gay dog" who has been called upon suddenly to pay the price for having been gay, becomes a sad dog. A BUDGET CAMPAIGN "Every home on a budget," is the object of club women of Dayton, Ohio. When they have made Dayton as nearly as possible 100 per cent budgetet, they plan to carry the campaign out into the state and nation. The idea of budgeting is not new, but this systematized effort to make it general is new. It is pointed out in connection with the movement that 85 per cent of the money in circulation passes through women's hands. Not every family income can be budgeted like every other, but there is this old familiar outline from which to start: Out of every dollar spend 25 per cent for food, 20 per cent for clothing, 20 per cent for shelter, 10 per cent for upkeep, 15 per cent for self-advancement and pleasure, 10 per cent for saving. Budgeting is more common than it used to be. If every woman charged with the disbursement of the larger part of the family income can be made to see that by efficiency she can make 100 cents grow where only 33 1-3 grew before, a nation of budgeting housewives will not be hard to attain. A grain of wisdom is worth a gross of advice. A soft snap is hard to find.

HOUSE RATS AND MICE The California department of agriculture calls attention to the following authoritative summary of rodent damage in the United States: "House rats, the most destructive mammal pest in the world, each year destroy food and other products in field, granary, warehouse, store and home to the extent of more than $200,000,000, a sum equalling the economic output of 200,000 men moking continuously. In addition to destruction of food products, poultry and other agricultural property, these pests are carriers of bubonic and pneumonic plague and other diseases communicable to man, and carriers of trichinosis, a parasite of swine; and since rats and mice may contract avian tuberculosis, both may have an influence on the spread of this infectious disease among domestic poutry." Information on approved methods of rat and mouse extermination may be had by addressing the Bureau of Pest Control, California Department of Agriculture, Sacramento. The children of darkness always seem to prefer their condition to that of the children of light who are bent on reforming them.
