THE TOWN DOCTOR (The Doctor of Towns) SAYS Many Cities, Like Topsy, Have Just Grown In the past, the mental genius of the entire country has been devoted to invention, and the creating and studying of scientific manufacturing and production methods—a mechanical age with very little thought, comparatively to the analysis of the community. Now it is recognized that for further expansion of business it is necessary to give the same kind of constructive thinking in towns and the individuals making up the community as has been accorded industry. What was, isn't! The museums are full of those things thought indispensable a few years ago. Consider the case of the dinosaur or the Tyranosaurus that had the strength of a steam engine, or the Gigantetaurus that was over a hundred feet long and as big as a house, as an example. They ceased to serve a useful purpose—there was no reason for them so they ceased to exist. These things that were, but are not now, did not know they were "sliping," could not help themselves, so cannot be blamed—they couldn't not think therefore a warning of their predicament was useless. Men individually and collectively are capable of thinking; therefore, if they their business, or their towns verge on the edge of the old order of things, they alone are to blame. Having powers of comprehension, a hint as to the new order of things should be sufficient. Yet, man with all of his brains retains those things in his makeup that tends to make one picture those creatures of the long ago. With some, it is procrastination and prejudice, while with others it is just plain ever-day refusal to think! There is a new order of things. Look around you—you will see it on every side. Business, industry. KNOW it—you can't help recognize it. But look at your town! It has kept pace! prosperity of that business, and regardless of your situation in life—regardless of the job you hold, the work you do or the business you are in. YOU are responsible. As an employee of a manufacturing plant you are a part of it: you must do good work, you must be SOLD on the product made or you are fired. The better the work you do, the more you MAKE. As a part of your town, the same is true. You should KNOW about your town—it is yours, and what you do goes to make it a good town, a progressive town or—a bum town. You may think your town is not a good town—maybe it isn't; maybe it is "old-fashioned." maybe it has "just grown."—but what have YOU done to make it any different? A town is just as big as the people in it, and you are the people! It is not the opinoids and habits of the few shining lights that MAKE a community True, there must be leaders, but when big industries consider your town for location of a new factory, investment in present enterprises etc., it is the people in general they are most interested in—YOU and all the other people like you. Never in the history of this country has the smaller city—your town—and the opportunities that it has today. Big business is looking to the smaller city as it never has before. The town or city that PREPARES itself for big things will greatly profit, and every individual citizen will be benefitted—but the town must be READY. The way to be ready is to be at work (building up the morale, aggressiveness customer attitude and salesmanship ability of the "clerks"—citizens of the community)—not by erection of monuments or idle talk on "Town Boosting"—but by constructive thinking to do something, get something, achieve... Ten Dollar Cut In Fares To Chicago Union Pacific Makes Big Slash In Rates A slash of $10 in the railroad fare between Los Angeles and Chicago, and a cut of eight hours and thirty minutes in the schedule between Los Angeles and Kansas City and St. Louis, was announced by the Union Pacific system and the Chicago & Northwestern railroad. The fare cut is made by the elimination of all extra fare charges between this city and the east which heretofore have been in force on the deluxe flyer, "The Los Angeles Limited." This train with all its luxurious facilities will continue to make the run between Los Angeles and Chicago in 614 hours, arriving there at 9:20 a.m., and will make connections with all the crack trains for New York and the Atlantic seaboard. It will leave Los Angeles at 6:05 p.m., instead of 6 o'clock as heretofore. The change becomes effective June 9. A new train, to be known as the "Pacific Coast Limited," will go into service on June 9, which will make the tremendous time cut to Kansas City and St. Louis. A proportionate saving in time will also be made to Denver. This train will leave Los Angeles at 7:30 o'clock in the evening. It will be a solid Pullman, all-steel equipped limited with every facility of comfort and luxury known in modern railroading. Heretofore passengers for St. Louis and Kansas City have been compelled to leave Los Angeles at 11 o'clock in the morning, but the new train makes possible a full business day in Los Angeles, and also to arrive at Kansas City in time for all important train connections to the east. Transfer. The companion train, the Pacific Coast Limited, for Denver, Kansas City and St. Louis, affected the most drastic time cut to those points that has been inaugurated in many years. In substance it saves the traveler a full business day in Los Angeles. The new departure time of the Continental Limited, in the morning at 9:40 instead of in the evening, also speeds up the time between this city and the eastern coast for the passenger who does not desire to use the extra fare trains out of Chicago operated by the eastern lines." LEGION NOTES Wounded and disabled World War veterans throughout California will be honored by their comrades on Sunday, May 12, which has been set aside by the United States Government as "Hospital Day," according to an announcement sent to the three hundred odd posts of the American Legion in this state by State Commander F. N. Belgrane, Jr., of the ex-servicemen's organization. Special pilgrimages will be made to each of the government hospitals according to plans outlined by State Commander Belgrano and James K. Fisk, state adjutant of the American Legion. At the U.S. Veterans' Hospital at Livermore, Katherine Simmons, director of the American Red Cross there, has arranged a special program including a band concert by the Richmond municipal band, which will be brought to the institution by the Richmond Lions' Club. Programs will be arranged for the veterans' hospital in Southern California, at Palo Alto and locally. Enrollment in the Citizens' Military Training camps to be held in California, as elsewhere in the nation, during and St. Louis. A proportionate saving in time will also be made to Denver. This train will leave Los Angeles at 7:30 o'clock in the evening. It will be a solid Pullman, all-steel equipped limited with every facility of comfort and luxury known in modern railroading. Heretofore passengers for St. Louis and Kansas City have been compelled to leave Los Angeles at 11 o'clock in the morning, but the new train makes possible a full business day in Los Angeles, and also to arrive at Kansas City in time for all important train connections to the east, north and south. There will be no extra fare charged on the Pacific Coast Limited. A second new train will also be placed in service by the Union Pacific by changing the departure time of the Continental Limited for Chicago from early evening to 9:40 o'clock in the morning. This train will reach Chicago at 7:40 o'clock in the third morning and will make connections for Milwaukee and with all early morning trains out of Chicago for the east. Heretofore the Chicago passengers on the Continental Limited did not reach Chicago until mid-afternoon, too late for the important train connections east, north and south. Like the Los Angeles Limited and the new Pacific Coast Limited, the Continental Limited will be a first class, all-steel train of the highest type, carrying Pullman sleeping cars and diners through to Chicago. "The new train service," said R. B. Robertson, assistant traffic manager of the Union Pacific System, "is a recognition by our company of the constantly increasing travel between the Pacific Coast and the East. The elimination of the extra fare charges and the maintenance of the same service that has been in force when the extra fare was charged, has been made possible by the continuously increasing traffic which has been carried on this deluxe Union Pacific train. The passengers will have a full business day in Los Angeles, will reach Chicago in ample time to make every desired eastern connection on all the fast lines to the east, and still will have sufficient time in Chicago to make leisurely PROPS FOR YOUR ORANGE TREES At this time of the year most orange trees trict need props to save many limbs from being account of the growing crop.

Bowers California localities by Secretary of War Good to give information regarding the camps. Johnson points out that the camps "give training in good citizenship," develop self-reliance, alertness, responsibility, leadership and courage, as well as physical development, teach love of country, give a month's training without cost for which the applicant is furnished a free uniform and transportation to and from camp, and that no obligation to military service in any form is taken in these citizenship schools. Ex-service men and women of California, in common with the rest of the country, are aroused over the failure of the Seventieth session of Congress to pass the hospital appropriation bill, accordin gto Irwin T. Quinn of Hureka, chairman of the American Legion's rehabilitation commission for this state. "California's delegation in the House of Representatives and Senator Hiram W. Johnson and Senator Samuel M. Shortridge have been appealed to by the World War veterans to join with the American Legion in its protest at the congressional failure," Chairman Quinn declares. "The hospital appropriation bill failed to pass the 70th session which ended March 4, this year," he said, "because of the maneuvering and delay of a few leaders in the House of Representatives, although the House, as a whole, was for it and the Senate was for it. The House leaders, however, held the bill back until Friday, March 1st, when it was allowed to come to a vote. It was passed by this branch of Congress unanimously." More than one million men and women of the Legion and the Legion auxiliary are back of that measure. More than one million men and women active members of the Legion and the Legion auxiliary are back of the interests of every ex-service man. "That ex-service men have awakened to the serious situation confronting the disabled veterans of this country, is shown by the increased membership in the Legion this year since Congress adjourned.

"At present Legionnaires are entitled to such care under existing laws, because every Legionnaire is an honorably discharged veteran of the World War. But care in a government hospital depends upon whether there is room for him, and at the present time there is an appalling lack of room." Somebody sent a bomb to Governor Roosevelt of New York. And the surprising thing is that it didn't bear a Chicago postmark. It is announced that the Leviathan will serve intoxicating liquors while outside the three-mile limit on its way from New York to Europe and return.
