TODAY AND TOMORROW FRANK PARKER STOCKRIDGE INSURANCE The General Motors Corporation has extended its system of insuring the lives of all employees to cover its agents and their employees. Coupled with that is a thrift plan to enable employees to share in the company's profits by investing a small percentage of their own wages. This and other large companies are engaged all the time in efforts to work out equitable methods of helping those who work for them to be certain of independence in old age or because of illness or accident, and to leave their families provided for in case of death. If large industries can do this, why not small ones as well? It is on the cards that the time is coming when everybody who works for anybody else will be required to leave a certain percentage of his salary or wages in trust, to be matched by an equal amount contributed by the employer, to form the basis of a fund to take care of him after a given number of years of work, or at a given age, or if incapacitated. And coupled with this will be some form of employment insurance, so that nobody can be thrown out of work with nothing to live on.

WEALTH The sole heir to $100,000,000 or more died in New York the other day. Miss Ella Wendel, 77, only survivor of six sisters and brothers whose grandfather was a partner of John Jacob Astor, the fur-trader, lived alone in an old house on Fifth Avenue, and died alone except for doctors and nurses. She had not a single relation left in the world. Every dollar of the great fortune which she had to dispose of is in New York city real estate. The lot on which her home stands is valued at nearly four million dollars. Grandfather Wendel laid down a rule for his family: "Buy land, never mortgage, never sell, never build, never make repairs." Buildings deteriorate, tenants sometimes do not pay their rent, but land value always increases. The purchase of land in any growing community is the swiftest certain road to wealth. Over any twenty-year period the owner of well-located vacant land in or close to a big city will have made several times more money simply by sitting still and watching the population grow than he could have made by putting the purchase price into a savings bank, into bonds or endowment life insurance or any of the other perfectly safe forms of investment. DEPTHS Divers can now go to unheard-of depths by the use of a mixture of oxygen and helium to breathe, instead of ordinary air. The greatest danger to workers under pressure, as in diving suits and in deep caissons or tunnels, is the escape of nitrogen from the compressed air into the blood and tissues, forming bubbles which set up a serious illness, often resulting in death, when the workers return to normal pressure. The U. S. Bureau of Mines has been experimenting with the helium-oxygen mixture and finds that it serves as well as normal air for breathing purposes, while the helium is not absorbed into the body as nitrogen is. This discovery may result in the recovery of treasure from the wrecks of many ships which lie too deep on the ocean bed to be reached by diving methods now in use. CALENDARS It is on the cards that sometime—perhaps in five years, perhaps in fifty, we shall have a new calendar. Everybody who has to do with the present method of dividing the year agreed that it is clumsy and uneconomical. Some are for making a radical change at once to a thirteen-month system, which many business houses now use in computing their own budgets and making their own comparative analyses of business conditions. Others believe that would success. Bert Morley Owner of Service Station Bert Morley, of 508 N. Vine street, and a resident of Anahelm for ten years, this week greeted friends in his new serving station at Palm and Center street. He purchased the business from F. D. Showalter last week. The station is known as the Palm and Broadway Service Station. Mr. Morely, in addition to having regular service facilities, will specialize in lubrication. The number of men employed by the government to carry out its construction program will soon be increased from 150,000 to 450,000. A Scripture cites includes the following Jesus: "Ye shalt fruits.

CALENDARS It is on the cards that sometime—perhaps in five years, perhaps in fifty, we shall have a new calendar. Everybody who has to do with the present method of dividing the year agreed that it is clumsy and uneconomical. Some are for making a radical change at once to a thirteen-month system, which many business houses now use in computing their own budgets and making their own budgets and making their own comparative analyses of business conditions. Others believe that would be too much of a change, and prefer to take two blites at the cherry. Not until the League of Nations, the Pope, the Anglican church, the leaders of the Jewish religion and the head of the Mohammedan church agree will there be any radical change from the present calendar. EINSTEIN Back in his home in Germany, Einstein, the great scientist, tells what he thinks of the United States. "A land of cooperative effort," he says, "quite different from our individualistic Europe. Everybody does teamwork." That is not the conception many people have of America. We think of Europe as a hotbed of Socialism if not of Communism, and of our own country as a place where everybody goes his own way without giving enough attention to his neighbor's problems. Probably both points of view are both right and wrong. Professor Einstein saw, principally, only men of science working together in laboratories and universities. Their methods may be much more cooperative than those common in business without signifying any such wide-spread team-work as the good Professor attributes to our whole people. And it may well be that we hear a great deal more about Communism than the facts warrant, because it is more sensational than the fact that most Europeans go strictly about their own business and let other people alone. All of our peace foundation might do well to adopt as the first article of their constitutions Washington's advice: "To be prepared for war is one of the most effective means of preserving peace."

Christian Science Lesson-Sermon Paul's words to the Corinthians, "The things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal," constitute the Golden Text Sunday, in the Lesson-Sermon on "Unreality," in all branches of The Mother Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. The Responsive Reading includes Paul's counsel to Timothy: "But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition. . . But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness." A Scripture citation from Matthew includes the following words of Christ Jesus: "Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? . . A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit." New Judge Justice James M. Proctor, just appointed an associate justice of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, succeeding the famous Justice William Hitz, elevated to the Court of Appeals. Orange County Has 995 Miles of Roads The California Highway Patrol announces the results of a survey of road mileage in California taken to provide the basis of studies for a more adequate and equal distribution of tariff officers. The survey covered both paved and unpaved county and state roads in each county. The information is to be used for an index system combining factors relative to accident hazard such as population and traffic density, motor vehicle registration, etc. The patrol's survey, based on statistics gathered by traffic officers in the various counties, showed a total of 74,492 miles of public highway in the state. This figure, which does not include city streets or private roads, is divided as follows: Paved county roads, 8,970; unpaved county roads, 59,184; paved state roads, 4,118; unpaved state roads, 2,219. Under paved roads are listed all concrete-asphaltum, concrete, and macadam construction.

Even though Mrs. Housewife may have lost the check after it had been returned with her monthly statement, she may arrange for a little private showing at the bank that will effectually end the dispute. In addition, such showing will provide sufficient legal proof that she has paid the bill. The machine offers the bank 100 per cent protection in the event of losses in its check or draft shipments. For instance, if the bank air mails a batch of checks intended for collection in a distant city and the contents of the mail plane are destroyed by fire or otherwise, the bank still has a fine film record of the checks and the collections may be made on such record without question. While not exactly encouraging the customer to be careless with his canceled checks, the bank can at least guarantee that it can duplicate all lost checks through the unquestioned means of photography. The bank is installing the first "movies" in its San Francisco Main Office and plans to extend such installation throughout the system eventually. It is the first bank west of the Rocky Mountains to install such service.
