The state Board of Health at Sacramento is calling upon every native son and daughter to eat prunes in abundance because of the "nutritional value and because they produce muscular energy."

Robertson explained he had seen the license clerk earlier in the day, but that the later had sent him back home to obtain a witness that would swear he was 21 years old. During the remainder of the day he found five persons so qualified. A large sedan stolen by a well dressed Los Angeles highwayman, who later slugged Meyer Van Warner, driver of the car and employee of a taxicab firm, who was left to die on the road near Westminster last week has been located in Yuma, Arizona, and a negro who was driving it was in jail, Sheriff Sam Jernigan was notified.

DAYLIGHT SAVING Daylight saving, in the usual meaning of the term, as a means of aiding the campaign in charge of oPower Supervisor H. G. Butler of the State Railroad Commission has failed to get a foothold in Southern California. Santa Barbara, Ontario and Upland tried it without waiting for the general adoption which many hoped would come about through the governor's ukase, and gave it up as practicable. Several other towns indorsed it but it went no further. But the idea shows vitality and perhaps in the new form originating in Oxnard will "get somewhere." The Oxnard Chamber of Commerce has gone on record as in favor of saving an hour a day without disturbing the hands of the clock. Ranchers thereabouts, who opposed the "orthodox" form of daylight saving, met with the Chamber and agreed to support the new suggestion. The idea is to let the clock have its own way but begin and end the business day one hour earlier than at present. The plan would in fact make no change in the norturnal habits of the farmers but would operate merely on the opening and closing of storos in town. In other words, it would be an urban and not a suburban measure. The farmers agreed to do their prehasing in town before 5 p.m., and at last accounts the merchants of Oxnard were being convassed to see how many would fall in line for the proposition. As the days shorten it would effect a saving in the use of electricity, for many stores begin to burn their lightsduction, of efficiency; that he has steadily pursued an honest, direct course tending to bring about a better condition through every part of the United States. Not alone will the appeal be made to Republicans but to every thinking man and woman throughout the nation. The party realizes that the American people have already achieved their own understanding of President Coolidge; that he is the choice of the people and is not the choice of any set of politicians. The primary elections showed that Coolidge was the choice of the people. Chairman Butler, in his statement issued, said: "We have a party platform and a presidential ticket that will make it possible to conduct the campaign everywhere in the open as energetically in one part or the country as in another, and to present our cause with the utmost frankness." Mr. Butler stated that he was particularly pleased to have received a large number of communications from men and women who admit that their interest in previous campaigns had only been incidental, but that they are now extremely anxious to actively participate in the present campaign. Coolidge's clean record will gain for him the support of many, who, this year, for the first time, will vote the Republican ticket. J. Messerall, arrested Thursday while in an intoxicated condition and locked up in jail for the night was fined $100 by Judge Kuchel the next day. In other words, it would be an urban and not a suburban measure. The farmers agreed to do their prchasing in town before 5 p.m., and at last accounts the merchants of Oxnard were being convassed to see how many would fall in line for the proposition. As the days shorten it would effect a saving in the use of electricity, for many stores begin to burn their lights by 4 or 5 p.m. Ranchers gavee as their reason for not wanting to move the hands of the clock that they get up at daylight now and if they had to get up an hour earlier, they would have to brn electricity probably for an hour. Theater managers oppose daylight saving because, as they claim, people go to the theater in the evening by the light outdoors and not by the clock. The effect would be, they say, to keep many people out of the first evening performance. AN ACTIVE CAMPAIGN The Republican party is going to conduct an aggressive campaign in all parts of the nation. The party is going to present to the people a list of many achievements beneficial to the people that have been brought about since 1920. The Republicans are determined that the people of the nation shall have a full opportunity to become acquainted with the many good things the party has done for the people since March 4, 1921. The party managers feel that the people have a right to be presented with all, not part of the facts. The Republicans are going to point to the fact that the program of Calvin Coolidge has been one of economy, of tax re-
