CORNER PHILOSOPHY Necessity is the mother of a good alibi. Hiking clothes are worn by girls who can't get a ride any other way. She may be old and wrinkled, but you love her just the same—the old $10 bill. How busy isn't as important as why busy. The bee is congratulated; the mosquito is swatted. What has become of the old-fashioned girl who used to boast that she could sit on her hair? An Anaheim man says that his wife is an angel. She is always harping on something. The man who marries twice evidently doesn't believe in doing things by halves. Most of us have an idea that heaven is a place where there is enough good luck to go around. One Santa Ana flapper refuses to wear calico because she doesn't want to see herself in print. The surest way to shatter an ideal is to marry it. A man should do his own thinking if he has the facilities. Modern children can forgive their parents almost anything except being poor. Vacations are like husbands—much nicer before you get them. Playing with fire isn't any safer than it ever was. What the country needs is a chicken dinner for a quarter. Flappers these days keep their ankles If he has the facilities. Modern children can forgive their parents almost anything except being poor. Vacations are like husbands—much nicer before you get them. Playing with fire isn't any safer than it ever was. What the country needs is a chicken dinner for a quarter. Flappers these days keep their ankles and knees warm by wearing an extra fur around the neck. There will always be crossword puzzles—that is, as long as men continue to marry 'em. Every time an Anaheim traveling man send his girl a telegram, he puts it down in his expense book as "chicken wire." Some girls have a boudoir at home while others use the mirrors in the chewing gum slot machines. No man ever made footprints on the sands of time by sitting down or lying in bed. It doesn't pay to be crooked. Look at what happened to hairpins and cork-screws. A straight flush is as rare on the face of the modern girl as in a poker game. Many a man resembles a mule when it comes to putting his best foot backward. The man who can laugh when he isn't amused is always popular. A woman's tears are the greatest water power known to man. A rear-vision mirror is a good thing, but the urgent need of the times is forward lookers. Many a man keeps his head above water by not letting the grass grow under his feet. Why fall out with people? Do you cuss an oak tree because it doesn't bear apples? The smaller the town the greater nose elevation $1,000,000 affords. Not infrequently the effect of a fresh face is spoiled by a fresh tongue. Mighty few of us get what we want, but most of us get what we deserve. A woman is never so inconsistent that she can't make up her husband's mind. Many a man spends most of his time wishing he had it to do over again. is an idiotment hard to escape," says Philosopher Alexander. "It is a true indictment, one into which enters not alone the idle pomposity of American laws in trivial matters, but also the official lack of recognition of fundamental tendencies in the individual which make toward his decent treatment of his fellow citizen." Hear him further: "Take the traffic law. If forty miles an hour is needed to make the hill right ahead on high gear, and the way is clear and safe, 95 per cent of drivers will speed to 40 miles or more. It is a matter of their own judgment. A regard for fundamentals is the greatest attribute of any fundamentally free people, the enforcement of detailed regulations is a sign of the unfree serf." The more laws that are passed the less effective they will become. Truth is the middle ground, the no-man's-land where so few men ever venture. Law is good. Too little law is bad. Too much law is bad. A sensible amount of law is just right. In America we have altogether too much law, and illustrations cited are merely examples of what obtains in a dozen other departments of daily endeavor.

Mighty few of us get what we want, but most of us get what we deserve. A woman is never so inconsistent that she can't make up her husband's mind. Many a man spends most of his time wishing he had it to do over again. Some men would rather step on other people's toes than stand on their own merits. Lots of men are liars who never go fishing. Occasionally you run across a dishonest man who has never been mixed up in local politics. Some men are born rich, some acquire riches and the rest of us have to hustle. EVERYDAY PHILOSOPHY Sunset magazine poses the question: "Are you a lawbreaker? Of course you are! How could you hope to obey all the laws passed by your city, your state and your national congress? If you should employ the most able lawyer in the land to guide you, he could not read fast enough to keep informed as to the new legislation and multiplicity of court decisions. Since we can't even hope to know what all the laws are, it follows that we must violate many of them," says the magazine. Charles Alexander, editor of the Albany (Oregon) Democrat, poet, novelist, critic, literary editor, says the truth is quite as Sunset has stated it. We have reached a state of mind where we must, by the terms of necessity, use our own discretion and be our own judges of what is proper and what is wrong. The fact that a thing is law no longer impresses us. "The man who craves a drink and can get it," says the magazine, "feels no moral restraint. Tell him that he is a lawbreaker and he will laugh and cite instances to prove that you, too, are a lawbreaker. This NEWPORT VOTES ON WATER BONDS Issue of $350,000 Wanted by Beach City Switching his stand, Lew H. Wallace, banker and harbor proponent, openly threw his full support back of the $350,-000 municipal water bond issue, to be voted on September 19, during a discussion at a special meeting of the Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce. Though I am not entirely satisfied with the proposed issue I wish to go off record as favoring it," Wallace declared. "When it comes up to be voted upon, I am going to vote "yes." Water bond advocates assert that Wallace's support practically assures the approval of the issue by the voters. They see in the move a strong boost for the bonds. The Newport Beach Chamber of Commerce gave full backing for the proposed issue in a vote on a motion endorsing the bonds. In explaining his attitude, Wallace said at the meeting that he had previously refused his support because he thought the amount of money to be expended was unreasonable. "After thoroughly going over the plans for the new system, I have come to the conclusion that the bonds should be passed. There are some things that I can't bring myself to assent to fully, but I feel that the issue from a broad viewpoint is desirable." Wallace acceded. At the first of the meeting, an explanation of the proposed system, with the expenditures, was given by Paul Kressly, city engineer. He pointed out the work contemplated on a map. Kressly advanced figures of the water department showing the seriousness of Greatest Show on Earth Here Soon Biggest Circus, Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Headed This Way Bringing more than eight hundred of the world's premier men and women stars, three hundred and fifty performing horses and many big, new foreign features, the Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey circus is to give performances at Santa Ana, September 17. Here is a partial list of its wonders: One hundred railroad cars. Five rings in place of the three heretofore used. Six arsenic stages. One hundred and fifty trained horses presented at one time in a magnificent "Equine Ballet." High-wire acts introducing no less than nine of the world's most famous dancing, somersaulting and bounding-wire artists in a single display. Five herds of trained elephants. A troupe of 20 leaping and long-distance jumping horses, and many other imposing acts and features. Among the host of noted performers are the Australian Colleano, the Spanish wizard, Mijares, Maximo, Naidia Miller and Berta Reeson who head the congress of high-wire artists. May Wirth, the George Hannaford troupe, "Phil," the marvel" the Ernestos and the Rieffenbach sisters are among the 70 bareback riding champions. Lillian Leitzel, Mile. Fillis, the Clarkontan-Nelson troupe, the Siegrist-Silbona and the Rooney's lead the aerial displays. Entire families of famous gymnasts are being presented. These include the Colleano family of 11 remarkable athletes, the Nelson family, world's greatest acrobats and tumblers; the Picchiani troupe, who have come from Italy to astound with their gymnastic feats; the Medinis, who perform upon ladders as high as the tent top; the Junetro-troupe, acrobats who wear tall stilts, and a host of others. The addition of two more circus rings has been effected by setting circular curbs on two of the elevated stages. This makes it possible for Ringling Brothers to present for the first time in history, five separate companies of performing horses at one time. Gorgeous pageants, a hundred clowns and a managerle of over one thousand rare animals are a part of what is the biggest and most amazing circus ever on tour in America. Along with its active misdoings, the soviet has committed at least one crime of omission—it has failed to wipe out Russian dancing.

Wallace acceded. The meeting, an exposed system, with issues given by Paul Pierce. He pointed out related on a map, figures of the water the seriousness of the city needs for a more adequate water supply. He said the present system was too small, and he read a report of John McMillan, retired water superintendent, on the bad condition of the mains. "In 25 pears, the estimated summer population of Newport Beach will total 31,500." Kressly explained. "This population will use 5140 gallons of water a minute. Our present water equipment is tailed to meet the needs of the city now." The seriousness of the situation was emphasized by Freeman A. Daley, recently appointed water superintendent. He told how the city would be without water in a few hours if a break occurred in the pumping plant. "We have outgrown our water supply," Daley said. "The receipts of the water department are a fairly sure barometer of the city growth." According to the figures of the last fiscal year, receipts increased 45.8 per cent over the previous year. "Growth at that rate will cause the city to double in size in two years. A critical condition is facing the city in insuring water for estimated increase." Several other citizens at the meeting expressed their views on the water project. Paul Ellsworth, presiding officer, declared that water bonds were demanded to keep pace with the city development. J. P. Greeley said that he had no doubt but that the bonds would carry. He charged that the harbor bonds would benefit by the voting of adequate water facilities. A makeshift system was condemned by L. S. Wilkinson, city trustee. He said that such arrangements always cost the most. In a final appeal, Wilkinson asked that the voters back the project, with 100 per cent support. Statistics show that Americans eat 60 pounds of red meat every day, which is not at all encouraging for the ultra pacifists. Deer Hunting in Utah Game Preserve Deer hunting on the Kalibab national forest and game preserve, in southern Utah, will be permitted from October 1 to November 30, according to an agreement made between the state of Arizona and the forest service, according to advice received by District Forester Paul G. Redington at the California district headquarters in San Francisco. Forestry officials of the Department of Agriculture for several years have realized the necessity of reducing the size of the deer herd now grazing on the Kalibab forest and game preserve in order to protect the entire herd from starvation and disease. The range itself has been badly overgrazed and needs protection from the excessive number of deer now using it. District Forester R. H. Rupledge at Ogden, Utah, states that the number of deer in the preserve has been variously estimated from 20,000 to 50,000, with a fawn crop of between 5000 and 5000. The hunting will be directed from designated camps on the east and west sides of the national forest and game preserve, where they will not interfere with the drifting of the deer on the top of the plateau, or within several miles of the main highway. No one person will be permitted to kill in excess of three animals, and a charge of $5 per animal will be made. The necessary authority can be secured at the camps, which may be reached through Fredonia or Kanab from the north, or across Lee's ferry from the south. In order to avoid accidents, only a limited number of persons will be permitted on the areas each day. Persons who desire to hunt the deer should make application for a specific date. Maybe the reason Abd-al-Krim has done well so far is that all the military experts are on the other side.
