Mission Pageant Being Presented Historical Play at San Juan Capistrano Draws Huge Crowds The beautiful mission of San Juan Capistrano, in the patio of which the Mission Pageant is presented, stands on a pleasant site, some three miles from the ocean, midway between Los Angeles and San Diego. Within the mission walls, now rugged from exposure to the storms of a hundred years, the pageant gives life to the stories of past struggles and glories. Act I. shows us the first attempt to found the mission, in the year 1775, and its interruption by news of the disaster at San Diego. Act II. (1776) introduces the figure of the beloved Fray Junipero Serra facing death at the hands of the savage Indians. Act III. (1812) portrays the glorious time when the beautiful church was dedicated. The governor, Jose Joaquin de Arriaga, appears. His troubles with the encroaching Americans give a peculiar, and at times highly humorous interest to this episode. Act IV. (1818) shows the mission in the hands of the pirates, Captain Hipolito Bouchard and his crew of buccaneers; a wild, rollicking episode in the history of San Juan. Act V. (1845) presents a Spanish flesta, a colorful scene of gay senoritas and caballeros, dancing at the very moment that the sacred buildings were passing from the possession of the Franciscan Fathers, being sold at auction. Act VI. (1865) is especially interesting, as it links the great President, Abraham Lincoln, with the California missions, for it was he who returned San Juan Capistrano to its lawful owners. The pageant concludes with a scene of touching and reverential beauty which is unsurpassed in any California pageant. The first performance was given last DO YOU BELIEVE IT? The earth was formed by meteorites bumping together in space. Its end will come when it whirls itself apart. This new theory, which already has started a controversy among scientists, has been propounded by Dr. William Jasner Spillman of the National Academy of Sciences and United States Department of Agriculture. It applies not only to the earth, but to the entire solar system. Its conclusions are that— The meteorites which formed the earth were fragments of older planets which had disintegrated and fallen apart. The earth is growing slowly larger. It is losing its own initial heat, but is receiving heat from exploding atoms and striking meteorites. The sun has attained its full growth and is now remaining stationary in size. It has passed its hottest point, and is gradually cooling off. Dr. Spillman explains as follows: "Millions of meteorites are whirling about in space." "They exert a certain amount of attraction for each other." Therefore, when the orbits of any two meteorites are close enough, the meteorites are drawn together and form one larger meteorite. Eventually it attains tremendous size. "This appears to be a logical explanation for all the stars and planets, including the earth." "For a time the earth grew fast, 'picking up' the smaller meteorites in its path." "Then—about 5,000,000,000 years ago—its growth slowed down. It had virtually 'cleaned up' its orbit of smaller bodies." "It is still growing, but very gradually. Scientists estimate it is being struck by 200,000,000 meteorites every day. While some of these meteorites are fairly large, many are no bigger than plinheads." "The various moons—our moon, and those of the other planets—were probably formed in the same way, but they were formed within the influence of" LEGION Buron R.

A BOY'S ADVICE "Good reasons for knowing how to swim is ferat, so you can save your own life, 2nd, so you can save other people's life, 3rd, so you can wawk on the edge of a river and don't care what happens, and 4th, so you can say yes in case anybody asks you." "That's great," said Scotty, "and it does answer a lot of questions, but I don't see why so many of those people you pull out every day get in trouble. Can't most of them swim?" "Well, yes," agreed the old-timer. "It's like a man who puts $10 in the bank and goes out and draws a check for $50. He's heading for trouble. He has money in the bank, but it isn't anough. "You see, learning to swim a little is one thing, but learning to take care of yourself in the water is another thing again. "Now that kid brother of yours that's just learned to walk. He'd go anywhere, wouldn't he, if he wasn't watched? If you'd let him, he'd try to cross Main street in rush hours. "Well, most people learning to swim are just like that baby. Because they can swim a few strokes they think they can go anywhere. That's were they are like the man with the new bank account—they can swim a little but it's not anough. "Keeping up in the wattir on wat motions you make. Suntimes drowning people make more motions than any other kind, ony they ain't the rite kind of motions, many of them merely bein' motions for help. A persin that don't know how to swim is just as anxious to stay on top of the wattir as anybody elts, but that don't say he will. This proves that nollege is more power-fill than hope. "A good swimmer wouldn't care how awfren he fell in the wattir if it wasn't for his clothes. "Many people don't mind trying to swim in shallow wattir because it is a grate comfort to know you can't go down farther than your neck if you go down. Many people who seem to be swimming in shallo wattir reely have one foot on the bottom. This proves that appearances is deceetfill. "Altho a persin can dive without knowing how to swim, they want to for their own safety." "The United States will not be the breadbasket of the world this year. With the smallest production of wheat since 1917 in prospect, economic experts of the department of agriculture today said the 661,000,000 bushels ex- This proves that nolege is more power-fill than hope.

MARTIAL ECONOMY Government economy, the President feels, should not be confined to peaceful activities. He has ordered the general staff of the army to see what it canfigure out in the way of a set of progressive reductions of expense, beginning with the fiscal year of 1927. It is expected that a similar inquiry will be made in the navy department. These are obvious places to look for possible leaky expenditures, because of their size. Next to the veterans' bureau, they represent the most expensive departments of our government. The estimate for the war department for the next fiscal year, beginning in July, is $339,000,000, and for the navy department $290,000,000. It is possible that a few millions may be saved there, by increasing efficiency and the elimination of unnecessary employees and activities, without imperilling the national safety. War has to learn economy as well as agriculture, commerce and the other branches of government. W. J. Bryan may be a radical in politics, but when it comes to religion you have to admit that he is ultra-conservative. If the French, American and British debt commissions need a neutral place to meet, why not make it rum row? Short Wheat Crop Has Been Predicted The United States will not be the breadbasket of the world this year. With the smallest production of wheat since 1917 in prospect, economic experts of the department of agriculture today said the 661,000,000 bushels expected on the basis of June 1 condition would just meet the needs of domestic consumption. Condition of wheat in Europe, India, Canada and northern Africa, the other principal bread producers of the world, are all good—much better than the United States, and the world need not fear a famine, experts said. The indicated increase of approximately 25 per cent in the United States production may cause increases of prices in many wheat products to the consumers and boost grain prices generally. The terrific heat wave of last May and early June was only the "last straw" in a series of circumstances unfavorable to the crop. After an adverse winter, the weather early in May was too cold for proper development. Then the plants were too weak to resist the dryness and excessive heat. Insect pests have caused heavy damage. The Hessian fly in parts of Illinois, Missouri, Nebraska and Kansas and chinch bugs in Missouri, were the worst offenders. Kansas, the leading winter wheat state, had to contend with the new "take all" disease. The spring wheat crop is in fair condition and with an increased acreage planted, promises to produce about 250,-000,000 bushels, just a little more than the 10-year average, although lower than last year. Governor Al Smith says New York needs two governors, one to work in Albany and the other to don a dinner coat and attend banquets. Here is a splendid opportunity for Chauncey Depew. LEGION NOTES Buron R. Flitts, former state commander of the American Legion and now Southern California director of the $5,000,000 American Legion endowment drive, has been in San Francisco conferring with officials of the state organization relative to the final campaign to secure California's quota to the fund for the disabled war veterans and orphans of the war. As one of the features of the final days of the drive, Flitts has arranged a radio program from station KFI, Los Angeles, which will be participated in by a group of orphans in a musical program, as well as talks by the children of war veterans. "The American Legion has been administering a million dollar fund since the close of the World War for the crippled, malmed and dependent veterans, their widows and orphans," Nathan F. Coombs, state commander of the California Legionnaires, announced over the radio this week. "The Legion maintained three hospitals and it is now maintaining in several states of the Union, homes for the orphans, homes as distinguished from orphan asylums, beautiful homes, with tender mothers in charge, and good schools." Commander Coombs declared in outlining the work proposed by his organization for the future. George J. Hatfield, San Francisco attorney and national executive committeeman from California on the American Legion's executive board, represented the ex-service men of this state at the dedication of the first unit of the $10,000,000 Indiana war memorial at Indianapolis, June 17. The building is the gift of the state of Indiana and will be turned over to the American Legion as its national headquarters. Hatfield has already left for the cast to attend the ceremonies and also the meeting of the national committeemen. Another California war veteran, Robert Smith, former secretary of the California State Veterans' Welfare Board, and now manager of the American interest and profits from it. If there isn't such a revision o four tariff laws as will let in more foreign goods, they may have trouble collecting interest from people who have no gold and are forbidden to send us goods in payment of their debts... Within a year the consuming masses will begin to rally to the standards of our international bankers and against the manufacturers." The American people will have to decide whether we first interested in the activity of American industry and employment, or in foreign industry and employment which will raise revenue to pay interest on investments made abroad by American financiers. If there is to be withdrawn from American industry a protective tariff sufficient to measure the difference between labor costs at home and abroad, the inevitable result will be that American industry will have either to shut up shop or reduce production costs, especially labor costs, to the European and Asian level. While cheap-labor products from abroad will ensure profits to the foreign producer, and the American financier who has invested money earned in the United States in foreign industries or securities, it will not ensure cheap good no the American consumer. Since commodities may be controlled at a few custom houses more easily than at thousands of American factory doors. The imported goods will be, as they are now and were under the Underwood tariff, sold at just enough below the prevailing American price to put the American producer out of business, and will remain at a retail figure representing all the market will bear until American competition can develop on the foreign cheap labor basis. The benefits to be derived from the arrangement except to the foreign producer, the importer and the American investor who puts his money into foreign rather than domestic enterprises, will be imaginary; the injury in slackened American industry will be very real. It seems incredible that men who have accumulated huge fortunes in the United States under the protection of American laws and the opportunities afforded to investors in our country, would be willing deliberately to strike down American industry and degrade HONEY and J.

The Washington correspondent of The Magazine of Wall Street quotes "a man in high official position in Washington" as saying: "Within 18 months we shall be in the throes of the most sweeping general revision of the tariff that we have ever known." He states that this demand will come from "the bankers," meaning presumably international bankers "and their allies," including, of course, the importing and other interests engaged in the marketing of foreign rather than of domestic commodities. Continuing, "the man in high official position in Washington" is quoted as saying: "Our bankers and foreign investors have been flirting with foreigners in a financial way. They've put billions of their wealth in Europe and divers other parts of the world, and now they are quite naturally beginning to see the foreigners' view of our tariff. Also they have a new view of their own; a billion dollar view that sticks to the retina. Naturally if they have money in a French steel company they would like to gick a breach in our tariff walls. Also they lent their money and ours for the purpose of reaping incomes." Now would be an ideal time for a congressional committee to take a junket trip of Morocco to settle that aircraft controversy.

There's getting the soap and the blueing and the starch ready; there's the necessary watching to see that everything is done right, and there's the picking up after the "working guest." Sometimes—this has happened to every woman—when the clothes are ready the laundress fails to show up. A telephone call . . . "I got the misery, and can't come today" . . . and so the washing is still to be done. Sometimes, too, there's not even the phone call. Hundreds of women, though, have found that the only way to rid themselves of the burden of "washday" is to turn everything over to us. And all you need to do to get this day off is to call upon us.
