MANY SOUNDS OF LIFE, AND THE TELEPHONE New continents have been found, and inventions have been numberless since the day St. Paul wrote, "There are, it may be, so many kinds of voices in the world, and none of them is without signification." Even then, indeed for centuries before, tunes made it known what was to be piped or harped, and if the trumpet gave an uncertain sound the soldier was not ready for the battle. Memories of music went back to the captivity of Babylon, to the temple in its youthful beauty, to the wanderings of the patriarchs. Sound might represent the discipline of armies, the pomp of courts, or the joy of a household over a wanderer's return. With industrial development the sounds have multiplied. A peal and a dirge were known centuries ago, but the shriek of the locomotive, the factory's morning blast, the honk of the motor car, the click of the typewriter and a hundred other sounds are quite as well known now as the bird notes and the cry of the wolf were known to the Indians. It often happens that the trained ear can tell whether a machine is in good or poor condition. The clock that is near the stopping point and the wheel that needs oil can not hide their status. It was by the sound of a faint trickle that Holland's boyish hero learned that there was a hole in the dike. From the pronunciation of a few words a philologist can detect the kinship of languages. The more numerous the devices man contrives the greater seemingly, the interest he takes in the sounds he utters, those which are made by the creatures he rears or hunts, and those made by the wind and the sea. Even those who declare themselves wholly unpoetic respond to cheerful or depressing notes. There is a growing great value of its contents and hurled the jewels from a speeding automobile. Shepherd, returning the jewels to Galli-Churci in San Diego, later received a reward of $500 and a glowing letter from the prima dona. Wednesday he received an additional reward or $1000 from Lloyd's. No arrests were made in connection with the disappearance of the jewels. POULTRYMEN CONFER Poultrymen representing Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino and Los Angeles counties met at the farm bureau offices at Santa Ana, Friday. This meeting was authorized by the regional directors at their meeting in Riverside, August 12, and it was the outgrowth of several months' investigation of poultry conditions by the Orange county farm bureau. Those present included Farm Advisor Winslow and Assistant Farm Advisor McDonald, from Riverside; Assistant Farm Advisor Campbell, of San Bernardino; Assistant Farm Advisor Gorden, of Los Angeles, and Assistant Farm Advisor Cory, of Santa Ana; Executive Secretaries Packard, of Riverside, Giff, of San Bernardino, and R. D. Flaherty, of Orange county; poultrymen were represented by the following authorized delegates: Mr. Gay and Mr. Bailey, of San Bernardino county; Packard, of Riverside; Hogsett and Long, of Los Angeles county, Hatch and Howell, of Orange county. Mr. Howell was appointed temporary chairman and R. D. Flaherty, temporary secretary. A suggested method for the organizing and conducting of a poultry department was outlined to be submitted to the various counties. The name adopted was Seven Southern Counties Poultry department of Manly Roads Maps Used By More than 4,000,000 roses be used by motorists in California this year! According to figures in Automobile Club of South Carolina this part of the state is the most mapped on the world. In 1918 there were road maps used annually hereabouts. The next year jumped to more than which time the eyes of United States centered California as the world's leading center. Last year local auto eastern visitors secured maps showing southern transcontinental routes club touring bureau. The number will be increased million, say club officials. If all the strip maps is auto club this year were end they would reach from Francisco to San Diego and the Imperial valley. Each inches and a half long s at least 4,000,000 of them out for yourself. Extreme accuracy is the preparation of constant road changes may changes. POULTRY NOTES Roup, one of the most diseases of poultry, is recognized as showing symptoms and is often caused different names, depending symptoms. They are: 1. Wet roup. 2. Chicken pox. The more numerous the devices man contrives the greater seemingly, the interest he takes in the sounds he utters, those which are made by the creatures he rears or hunts, and those made by the wind and the sea. Even those who declare themselves wholly unpoetic respond to cheerful or depressing notes. There is a growing tendency to find the origins of human melodies in the song of bords, in the ripple of the waters, in the rustling of the idleaves, or the patter of the rain. At least the real musician, the true poet responds to the voices of the mountain, the woodland and the sea. Read compares the last moments of a venerable matron to her spinning wheel, and the droning wheel turned "like the low murmur of a hive at noon." Tennyson's May queen listened to the rolling of the wild March wind. Yes "There is music in the bellow of the blast, There is rapture in the roaring of the gale, There is eloquence outpouring Where the lion is a-roaring, And the tiger is a-shaking of his tail." Who gave more heed to St. Paul's saying than Alexander Graham Bell. All that could be learned about the human voice, its low and high pitches, its capacity to express emotions, was material for him. It was a long step from Demosthenes struggling against his impediment of speech to Bell experimenting with his telephone, but the war song, the fiddle on the village green, the fluttering wings of the snared robin, the hiss of the serpent, the chorus of the frogs all taught something to the man so ready to learn. The great invention whence have come the wireless messages at sea and the radio news from the farms proves that of all the sounds in the universe not one is without significance. REWARD FOR HONESTY An echo of one of the most sensational acts of banditry ever committed in Orange county was heard when it was learned that W. J. Shepherd, a truckman, residing in Los Angeles, had received $1000 from the Lloyd's Insurance company of London, as a reward for returning $100,000 worth of jewelry stolen from his home. LET'S STICK TO AMERICAN TRADITION OF HONESTY Secretary Hughes voices the sentiment of a big majority of the American people when he protests against the passage of a bill proposed in congress, evidently at the instance of the former management of the alien property custodian bureau, whereby Germany is to be given no representation on the commission created to adjust alien property claims growing out of seizures during the war, and in effect sets up the principle that there shall be general and permanent confiscation of the property held in this country by citizens of any nation with which we go to war. There are two good reasons why this country should not take huch a position. First, it is out of line with our tradition of fair play even for an enemy. There was a disposition manifested during the war by those in control of the alien property bureau to go to any extremes in autocracy, much of it accompanied by fat fees for favored attorneys and profitable sales to friends of the administration. This conduct of a government bureau, violating in spirit and letter American national standards of chivalry and Mr. Bailey, of San Bernardo no county; Packard, of Riverside; Hogsett and Long, of Los Angeles county, Hatch and Howell, of Orange county. Mr. Howell was appointed temporary chairman and R. D. Flaherty, temporary secretary. A suggested method for organizing and conducting of a poultry department was outlined to be submitted to the various counties. The name adopted was Seven Southern Counties Poultry department of Region number one of the California farm bureau federation. The recommendation to the region that the other three counties of the district be invited to elect delegates to sit on this committee was approved and the secretary was so instructed. The committee was appointed to work out a suggested program of work to be submitted by it to the next meeting to be held at Riverside during the fair. Friday, October 13, at 9 o'clock in the morning. Other organization problems occupied most of the afternoon and the meeting adjourned with everyone feeling that a long step had been taken in meeting problems before, the poultrymen of southern California.

REWARD FOR HONESTY An echo of one of the most sensational acts of banditry ever committed in Orange county was heard when it was learned that W. J. Shepherd, a truckman, residing in Los Angeles, had received $1000 from the Lloyd's Insurance company of London, as a reward for returning $100,000 worth of jewelry stolen from Mme. Amilita Galli-Curci, noted opera star, at San Juan Capistrano last April. The famous singer's jewel case disappeared under mysterious circumstances from the Palm cafe, in the mission town, on the afternoon of April 6. Mme. Galli-Curci, accompanied by her maid and her husband-accompanist, Homer Samuels, arrived at San Juan Capistrano about 1 p.m. The prima donna's maid, Mrs. Mae Hendrickson, left her mistress of few minutes for the purpose of visiting the women's dressing room. With her, Mrs. Hendrickson carried Galli-Curci's jewel case, which was always entrusted to her care. Upon returning to the main dining room the maid, according to Samuels, discovered that she had left the leather jewel case in the wash room. Frantic search failed to locate the jewels. According to Mrs. Hendrickson, two young women, one wearing a light coat, had followed her into the dressing room. Detectives failed to find any further trace of the mysterious young women. Shepherd, driving a truck to San Diego, said he found the jewels lying near a tree at Galivan, four miles north of San Juan Capistrano. The police theory was that the two women, having stolen the jewel case, became alarmed when they discovered the country should not take huck a position. First, it is out of line with our tradition of fair play even for an enemy. There was a disposition manifested during the war by those in control of the alien property bureau to go to any extremes in autocracy, much of it accompanied by fat fees for favored attorneys and profitable sales to friends of the administration. This conduct of a government bureau, violating in spirit and letter American national standards of chivalry and square dealing, accounts in part for the anxiety of certain political interests to hush up the whole matter by committing the government to the theory that citizens of a nation with which we are at war, residing in this country, have no rights that American officials are bound to respect. Second, the precedent would be extremely unwise from the standpoint of national interest. Establish the doctrine that once a nation is at war with another, the property rights of enemy nationals are forfeited within that nation, and all any foreign country would have to do to acquire all American property within its borders would be to declare war upon us long enough to effect the transfer. No American would think it fair that, because his country became involved in war with Mexico or China or France, that any property he might have there would be subject to confiscation. The war is over and it is time to get over the frenzy of war, real or pretended, under the spell of which moral standards disappear. SOMETHING TO PONDER We wonder whether the strikers have stopped to notice that outside their own ranks they have neither champions nor defenders. Even their fellow unionists are distinctly lukewarm. MUST CONTINUE SUMMARY The railroad commission and order on rehearing application of W. S. Lawyers, owners of a water utility in Mexican settlement, the city limits of Anaheim tinue service. The order upon the original hearing requiring the utility to make improvements and was Upon completion of these mentions the commission annexes the utility would be auto supplemental order to flat and monthly meter rate $1.50 to $2 a month. Declaring that the commission urged that cover the utility co-operate in the enterprise and that made to have the city take over the system. WOMEN JOINING THEM Already large per cent realize that there must be parties, and unless you be or the other of them, you lost. They know that to be sententious voter is to throw your vote for no candidate can issue he has an organization but They knew that to scratch it is to give "aid and conspiracy," since the candid ticket you do not believe by his party for the things believe in. Suppose you were in an across from you, in the rene enemy was a man you knight gentleman and a scholar. MANY ROADS MAPS USED BY TOURISTS More than 4,000,000 road maps will be used by motorists in southern California this year! According to figures issued by the Automobile Club of Southern California this part of the state of California is the most mapped territory in the world. In 1918 there were only 350,908 road maps used annually by autoists hereabouts. The next year this number jumped to more than 2,000,000, at which time the eyes of the entire United States centered on southern California as the world's greatest touring center. Last year local auto owners and eastern visitors secured 3,814,640 maps showing southern California and trans-continental routes from the auto club touring bureau. This year the number will be increased by half a million, say club officials. If all the strip maps issued by the auto club this year were laid end to end, they would reach from San Francisco to San Diego and on over to the Imperial valley. Each map is ten inches and a half long and there are at least 4,000,000 of them. Figure it out for yourself. Extreme accuracy is the watchword of the preparation of these days, and constant road changes means constant may changes. POULTRY NOTES Roup, one of the most prevalent diseases of poultry, is generally recognized as showing three distinct symptoms and is often called by three different names, depending upon the symptoms. They are: 1. Wet roup. 2. Chicken pox. side you, fighting for the same principles that you are fighting for, you should discover a veritable vagabond. Would you give your favors to your opponent and train your gun on the man who stood for your cause? Parties are bigger than individuals. They represent ideals and policies which go on and on. If we want to help with their program, we cannot afford to trip our cause by throwing our influence to the enemy, or putting into power one who will do all he can to hurt the measures we are standing for. Candidates are human and are temporary, but party ideals are bigger than our humanity and are permanent. We do well to align ourselves with that party which is moving in the direction we want to go. WHAT WOMEN WANT There is a lot of wise talk about what women want in politics, as though they want anything different there from what they want anywhere else. Women are not so distinct or so selfish as to ask peculiar favors for their own sex, although they do want sex equality and justice. Women want, in the main, just what men want: A reasonable living, home, safety, order and stability, justice, a chance to develop and to give opportunities to our children, freedom, a nation strong and honored and independent. In order to have all this women know there must be a party of wise statesmanship at the helm of the ship of state. To bring about the above blessings women want business sense and business administration in the government. Women want protection for American products and American industries that business may prosper and that we may have money enough in circulation. THE DELIVERY BOYS ARE RECKLESS DRIVERS Pink-cheeked delivery boys and the drivers of commercial vehicles throughout southern and central California are calling down upon themselves a storm of criticism from motorists for careless driving, according to the Automobile Clubs of Southern California. There is a growing sentiment locally against the uncontrolled actions of delivery boys who are either ignorant of the traffic laws, or in their youthful exuberance fail to obey even the laws that they know about. In fact, it is stated by the auto club authorities, there is a movement now on foot to secure a control of these reckless youths by state-wide action of some sort. In some localities it is believed that the age limit of the driver of a delivery wagon should be at least twenty-one years-of age before he secures a driving license. Many motorists complain to the club that the drivers of delivery wagons fail to obey the speed laws, often cut-in in front of passenger vehicles with reckless abandon and cut corners without giving a signal, which is a double offense. In Los Angeles the question has been presented to the city council by the board of public utilities seeking to secure some hold on the wild boys who launch their vehicles upon the city streets with all the energy of human catapults. The board wishes to secure control of the delivery wagon drivers so as to place an age limit upon them, if possible. Other cities throughout southern California are considering similar action, with a view to arousing state-wide sentiment in the matter and thus secure legislative action, which it is declared, would hit at the root of the matter. POULTRY NOTES Roup, one of the most prevalent diseases of poultry, is generally recognized as showing three distinct symptoms and is often called by three different names, depending upon the symptoms. They are: 1. Wet roup. 2. Chicken pox. 3. Fowl diphtheria. Wet rou is characterized by the watery swelling about the eyes. The nose may become stopped and breathing made difficult, and there is generally an offensive odor. Chicken-pox can be identified by small nodules on the comb and face. Diphtheria roup is identified by the dry cheesy growth in the mouth and throat. Control of roup: 1. Roup can be prevented by keeping the house dry and free from drafts but with plenty of fresh air. 2. Segregate all affected birds. 3. The fowls may be vaccinated with bacteria. Treatment: 1. All affected birds should be placed in a house that can be well ventilated, but do not permit a draught to pass directly over them. 2. Vaccinating is done with a hypodermic needle. This material is claimed to immunize the birds so that they will not contract this disease. 3. Give them water to drink in which Epsom salts has been dissolved at the rate of one pound to four gallons of water. 4. Paint affecter acrea of the head with tincture of iodine or dip head in a solution of potassium permanganate which is made by dissolving one teaspoonful of potassium permanganate in one gallon of water. 5. Feed lightly for a few days, giving only grain. But after the hen commences to recover resume feeding regular laying rations. MUST CONTINUE SERVICE The railroad commission in an opinion and order on rehearing denied the application of W. S. Lawrie and others, owners of a water utility supplying a Mexican settlement adjoining the city limits of Anaheim, to discontinue service. The order was issued upon the original hearing of the case. In order to have all this women know there must be a party of wise statesmanship at the helm of the ship of state. To bring about the above blessings women want business sense and business administration in the government. Women want protection for American products and American industries that business may prosper and that we may have money enough in circulation on this side of the water to keep our homes comfortable. Women do not want to encourage Americans to spend their money for foreign products—as the Democratic low tariff will do. Women want economy in government business. Women want stability. A "house builted upon the sands" or a home resting on uncertain business support is a woman's idea of misery. Women want that Republican soundness and confidence in which atmosphere business prosperity is built. Women want our government free to go ahead independently, to mind its own business without having to be drafted into police service in every European quarrel. Women want that settlement of differences around the conference table instead of on the battlefield, which was assured by the limitation of arms conference. In general and in detail, women want just what men want—good roads and a full dinner-pail. The American woman is a pretty good pal with the American man and their wishes will not be found very far apart. WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN The strike of the railroad shopmen has provided one impressive lesson in favor of arbitration, which should be heeded in future labor controversies. If the men had remained at work and fought out their claims through arbitration, they would have retained their seniority rights and privileges. Somewriters profess to see great danger to the white race in the not distant future through the aggressions of the Mongolian nations. As an evidence of that tendency it is stated that the British empire is declining in power and wealth. "Great Britain is the sick man of Europe," as one writer puts it. Never was a statement more utterly at variance with the facts. It is true that the British have had some recent unfortunate experiences with Ireland, India and some other colonial possessions, and it is also true that the drain upon British resources on account of the war was enormous. It is probable, however, that the wealth of the British empire was fully increased 50 per cent by the terms of peace. Fabulously rich African territories were added to the British crown through the grant of mandates. They adjoin other immense tracts of land that have been under British domination for many years. Together the British holdings in Africa give her virtual control over that continent, the richest undeveloped area on the earth's surface. We frequently hear about a scheme of the Japanese to seize control of the natural resources of Siberia, as part of their plan to dominate the world. People may rest assured that, vast as those resources undoubtedly are, the potential wealth of Africa is far superior. There is not a doubt in the world but that British development of Africa will at least keep pace with anything Japan may do in Siberia. MUST CONTINUE SERVICE The railroad commission in an opinion and order on rehearing denied the application of W. S. Lawrie and others, owners of a water utility supplying a Mexican settlement adjoining the city limits of Anaheim, to discontinue eservice. The order was issued upon the original hearing of the case requiring the utility to make service improvements and was sustained. Upon completion of these improvements the commission announced that the utility would be authorized by supplemental order to increase its flat and monthly meter rates from $1.50 to $2 a month. Declaring that the continuance of the service at best is precarious the commission urged that consumers and the utility co-operate in supporting the enterprise and that an effort be made to have the city of Anaheim take over the system. WOMEN JOINING THE PARTIES Already a large per cent of women realize that there must be two great parties, and unless you belong to one or the other of them, your vote is lost. They know that to be an independent voter is to throw your vote away, for no candidate can succeed unless he has an organization back of him. They knew that to scratch your ticket is to give "aid and comfort to the enemy," since the candidate on the ticket you do not believe in will stand by his party for the things you do not believe in. Suppose you were in a battle, and across from you, in the ranks of the enemy was a man you knew to be "a gentleman and a scholar;" while be- USED CAR CLEARANBE SALE On account of wrecking our front for our new building, our floor space has been reduced 8000 square feet.

PAR AND THEN SOME Fortunately for the Widow Riggs, she did not need her hundred dollars to go to her son until the summer of twenty-two. Had she needed it in the Democratic year 1919, she would not have found it one hundred dollars, but only eighty-five. Such was the depreciation which befell Liberty bonds. It had not been easy for the Widow Riggs to have a Liberty bond—but when her country was in need, ease was farthest from her thoughts. By years of pinching, she had saved one hundred dollars. When Uncle Sam made the call for patriots to buy the bonds, she was glad to give her widow's mite. It was but human that her heart went down as she saw the face value of her bond go down, down to 85 cents on the dollar. That 85 cents on the dollar is a straw which shows which way the wind blows. It indicated the inefficiency of Democratic management and the depression of Democratic times. When the Republican party came into authority, Liberty bonds and business in general immediately began to rise in value. Widow Riggs sold her Liberty bond in July, 1922, for $100:30. It had not only reached par but had climbed up thirty cents to the good. HE WAS TURNED DOWN Had the people of this country wanted Jimmy Cox to tell the government what to do they would have given him a job at $75,000 a year.
