50 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK
From the Gazette of May 30, 1874.
Decoration Day—Today throughout the length and breadth of the Federal Union, in all places where side by side the Confederate and the Federal soldiers await the last roll call, their devotion to what each believed the true cause will be commemorated alike by former friend and foe. In silence and with tear-bedimmed eyes the matrons and maidens of the nation will cover with flowers the graves of the fallen soldier. It is but a little thing in itself—this covering a soldier's grave with flowers but in its significance and in its effect it does more to heal the breach created by the war than all the eloquence and wisdom of the North, South, East or West. We see that some of the states have made the Day a legal holiday; their example should be followed by all, for more sacred than the birth of the nation and dearer than the birthday of the Father of our country is this day on which in the presence of their dead the nation gives to the waters of Lethe the imaginary line which separated the North from the South.

A hundred years ago, there were no railroads, steamboats, telegraph lines, gas burners, furnaces, sewing machines, photographs, revolvers, percussion caps, rubber shoes and above all, no free schools.

Many people have the idea that summer school at a university is merely a continuation of the regular spring term, designed to give students a chance to make up work or gain extra credits. As a matter of fact that is its least important phase. The Summer Session is an absolutely distinct division of the University, in which courses are planned and instructors engaged for the purpose of equating the large numbers of people who are not inschool with the interesting developments in the realms of art, literature, science, history, language and political economy. Education has of course, its share in the list of courses offered, but many teachers prefer to take work in other fields and so use their vacation time to become better acquainted with other trends of thought than that which they must follow during the year.
Music and foreign languages are well represented in the schedule for this summer. Students who find that a knowledge of Italian and German is necessary for their work in music may study the elements of both languages for the first time this year, since these courses have not been given here before during Summer Session.
The applications which have been coming in large numbers to the office of the Summer Session show an interest in courses chosen by

Mr. J. C. Harraman, Examiner of the Railroad Commission, was designated as a special examiner to sit with examiners of the Interstate Commerce Commission, as representative of the various state utility commissions, and to assist in preparing the findings upon which the ruling of the Federal body was based.
Under the new schedule of express rates, as finally approved by the Federal body, the rates are virtually restored to the 1920 basis, as effective prior to the last increase of 13½ per cent, ordered by the Interstate Commerce Commission.
The number of express rate zones is reduced from five to three, and California is included in Zone No. 3, embracing all territory west of the Mississippi River. Zone No. 1 includes the states east of the Mississippi River, but south of the Ohio and Potomac Rivers. Three factors are involved in the establishment o f the rates, first, haulage by railroads; second express terminals; third, rail terminals. The terminal factors are the same in each zone under the new ruling. The average reduction on long-haul business is ten per cent. All merchandise rates are reduced, but the reductions are more substantial on long-hauls than on short hauls. The rates are virtually the same as those tentatively announced in the report of the examiners, with the exception that the general merchandise rates were slightly modified.
As indicating the trend of the new rates it is sufficient to show that the new rate from New York to San Francisco will be approximately $13 per 100 pounds, instead of $14.62 as formerly. The Los Angeles to San Francisco rate is reduced from $3.34 to $3.30 per 100 pounds.
It is estimated that the California shippers and receivers of express matter have saved $1,000,000 per year since 1920 when the California Railroad Commission declined to make effective on interstate express shipments the last increase in express rates of 13½ per cent, ordered by the Interstate Commerce Commission, and immediately placed in effect by all other states.
Mr. Gordon, Chief Counsel of the Railroad Commission, was assisted in the legal matters connected with these proceedings by Mr. Carl I. Wheat. The Commission's exhibits and showing was submitted by Mr. William P.

This evidence substantiated the stand of the Railroad Commission that the express rates were too high, resulting in a considerable diversion of express shipments to freight carriers, and a considerable detriment to California industries.

BATHING GIRLS' PARADE
Each year the Bathing Girls' Parade is staged at Balboa and Newport. This year it is to be held on June 22d, Sunday, and hundreds of entries are expected. Already thirty or more screen beauties have signified their intention of appearing in this important event, which draws thousands of visitors to the Gem of the Southern Beaches, to see the latest modes in bathing and beach apparel.
The Tournament of Lights, one of the most novel features offered at any of the California Beaches will be held on the evening of Saturday, August 2d. The high tide that night will make the event important as it will enable the great number of large craft to enter the parade of yachts, boats and vessels of all kinds which will make a tour of the bay, reflecting their myriad of colored lights and decorations in the quiet waters.
Committees in charge of the Bathing Girls' Parade and the Tournament of Lights plan to offer a great number of substantial prizes to be donated by merchants, officials and others.
Addition to the parking space will permit much more room for the accommodation of the automobiles of the visitors and many more can be handled this year than on previous occasions.
A number of bonfires will be illuminated on important points about the bay and on the ocean shore line for the further entertainment of the visitors. The bonfires will afford opportunity for the visitors to enjoy campfire suppers of all varieties.
