The Lesson-Sermon includes these Bible selections from the Psalms: "O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; To see thy power and thy glory; so as I have seen thee in the sanctuary . . . My soul shall be satisfied as with marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips." And from I Corinthians, "What? know ye not that your body is the temple of the Holy Ghost which is in you, which ye have of God, and ye are not your own? . . . therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's." Mary Baker Eddy writes in "Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures:" "Soul is the substance, Life, and intelligence of man, which is individualized, but not in matter.

Raymond Cato, Captain Henry C. Meehan of the California Highway Patrol and all chief of police in Orange county have embarked upon a vigorous campaign to stress this appeal of the Chief Executive of the United States. More people are killed and maimed every year than in some of the greatest battles of history by careless and thoughtless drivers on our roads and highways throughout the United States.

That sounds to me like an attempt to hoodwink the voters into believing they still are voting for my father. "I would not run for Controller because I feared I would be trading on my father's name and because I believe sincerely that the man who should be elected to that office is State Controller Elect RAY ADKINSON TO CONGRESS 22nd Congressional District new addition was intended primarily to provide a family dining room with a home atmosphere. Stressing the fact diners would find a comfortable, homey aura surrounding the quarters, the partners emphasized no intoxicating beverages are served on their premises. "We want our patrons to enjoy this place as much as they would their own home," said the partners. Work was started on the new wing to the present restaurant last week they said and at a late hour yesterday both partners predicted it would be completed before morning today. A neutral wall paper adorned with a simple tree design covers the walls from the ceiling to a level about six feet above the floor and is set off with a green-paneled border surrounding the entire dining room. Entrance to the kitchen is made at the rear of the new wing and lavatory facilities flank the east wall. The new dining room before its renovation formerly served as a banquet room for the restaurant proper. Seating arrangements will provide for couples and there will be a majority of four and six seater tables. Eustis and Cruzen have been managing the Parker House Cafe since February of this year. KENYONS VACATION IN LAS VEGAS WITH FRIENDS Paula Kenyon, owner-manager of Paula's Flower Shop, 106 West Canter street, returned to work last Monday morning refreshed from a week-end trip to Las Vegas with her husband, Lawrence Kenyon. Leaving by car Saturday, the Kenyons were joined in the desert oasis by Mr. and Mrs. Harry Fishback of Whittier for an informal get-together. Elect RAY ADKINSON TO CONGRESS 22nd Congressional District In Public Life 25 Years Veteran of World War I Elect a Man Who Understands Our Problems to Represent Us in Congress Primaries June 4, 1946 This Advertisement Paid for by Friends of Ray Adkinson Thomas H. Kuchel. Mr. Kuchel in truth is your state controller. He was appointed on my father's death. He is a trained public official. He is a man with whom my father worked and who had my father's complete confidence. "I know that my late father, who had the confidence of California's voters, would back Thomas H. Kuchel to the limit as I am backing him and I know that my father would be the first to resent the attempt of any other candidate to trade on a family name." An open letter signed by Mrs. Annie (J. H.) Ganey, member of the Democrat State Central Committee, and received here early this week, lent its weight to the vast number of supporters for Kuchel. Her letter, addressed as follows: AN OPEN LETTER TO ALL DEMOCRATS I hereby endorse the candidacy of Thomas E. Kuchel (pronounced Kee-kl) for State Controller, and urge all democrats to work for, and vote for, THOMAS H. KUCHEL. Mr. Kuchel was appointed State Controller upon the death of Harry B. Riley. A man by the name of Harry E. Riley, (no relation to the deceased Harry B. Riley, former State Controller) of South Gate is a candidate for this office on the Democratic ticket. He was registered as a Republican until March 25, 1946, when he changed his registration to Democrat, and the next day filed as a Democratic candidate for State Controller. (I have in my possession photocopies of registration records in support of this statement.) Fellow Democrats, do not be misled; vote to keep THOMAS H. KUCHEL State Controller. Mrs. Annie (J. H.) Ganey Member Democrat State Central Committee. and has had nine years experience in the state legislature. I have known him since college days and have followed closely his professional career since then. I have always admired his seriousness of purpose and his ability. I can personally recommend him to the people of California as a square shooter who plays the game fair, and who is well qualified to handle our financial affairs." Thomas H. Kuchel has been controller since the death of Harry "B." Riley on Feb. 4, 1946, being appointed to this responsible position by Governor Warren, who knew Kuchel for his sincerity and honesty in his past duties as state senator and who, he believed, was qualified to perform the important duties as state controller. Among the five opponents running against Kuchel is a man with a name very similar to the late controller, this man being Harry E. Riley, a salesman in the electrical business, who states he is an engineer although he shows no occupation on the ballot. It has been reported he is distributing misleading literature which would lead the voter to believe he is the Harry "B." Riley who, until his death in February, was controller for almost eight years. Obviously past experience as an electrical salesman or even an electrical engineer is no qualification for this important office. The state controller in addition to being responsible for the proper and legal expenditure of every dollar of state money, is a member of 17 state boards and commissions. Years of experience in state government are necessary to qualify a man for this post—and for almost 30 years the holders of this office have gone to it with experience in state government similar to that of Thomas H. Kuchel. So far as is known, Candidate Harry "E." Riley is not violating any law by this campaign which is misleading to the voters. The ethics of the situation are another matter! registered as a Republican until March 25, 1946, when he changed his registration to Democrat, and the next day filed as a Democratic candidate for State Controller. (I have in my possession photostatic copies of registration records in support of this statement.) Fellow Democrats, do not be misled; vote to keep THOMAS H. KUCHEL State Controller. Mrs. Annie (J. H.) Ganey Member Democrat State Central Committee. Jeff Cravath, another well-known Californian, football coach of USC Trojans, whose team was conference champion for 1945, has also come out for the full support of Controller Kuchel. He is a long time friend of Kuchel. "Politics is not my game," stated Cravath, "but I want to get active in the political picture long enough to help retain my good friend, Tom Kuchel, as our State Controller. I am particularly alarmed at the report that state-wide polls show that one of Mr. Kuchel's opponents, a Mr. Harry E. Riley, is receiving support from voters who apparently believe him to be the former Controller, Harry B. Riley, recently deceased, as there is such a close similarity in their names. "I believe that it is important that our voters know the true facts in electing a man to the state's most important fiscal office. This new Riley is in no way related to the former public servant, and has never had experience in the Controller's department. He is in the electrical business, I understand." "On the other hand," continued Cravath, "Mr. Kuchel is experienced as our present Controller, GREYHOUND gives you more routes to choose from, more sightseeing, more convenient departures, more savings on trips to all Eastern cities.
