"This but to fill" A certain portion of uncertain paper: Some liken it to climbing up a hill. Whose summit, like all hills, is lost in vapor. For this men write, speak, preach, and heroca kill. And bards burn what they call "the midnight taper." LEGAL PROCEDURE NOW NEEDS SIMPLIFYING. Procedure in American courts is not what it should be. Its severest critics are the most eminent jurists and lawyers of the country. It is the system that is at fault. Legal procedure has not been modernized in this country. It has not been made to keep pace with other forms of progress. With antiquated methods and cumbersome legal machinery, court calendars become clogged, the administering of justice is handicapped, and "the law's delay," passing from a proverb into an actual and aggravated condition, works hardships that should not be. Men of eminent legal attainments, like former President Taft, Ellhu Root, George W. Wickersham, and others, long and persistently have advocated reform of procedure in the courts. National and state bar associations have urged remedial action along this line. But the sum total of reformative action is negligible. The same old system prevails, with its attendant annoyances and hardships. J. OGDEN ARMOUR LOOKS FOR GOOD YEAR.

Ogden Armour, president of Armour & Co., among the leading packers of the U.S. Mr. Armour, discussing the economic outlook for 1921, says that "there is abundant reason to look forward to a better year. The coming months should show a brisk business and satisfactory profits." These are not words hastily and impulsively spoken. They are studied, and appear in Mr. Armour's annual report to the stockholders of the company of which he is official head. What he says represents sober business judgment. There have been a number of expressions of convictions along the same line recently, by men of great business, industrial and financial affairs. There seems to be a general feeling, in these posts of high responsibility, that the processes of economic readjustment are well along toward finality, and that constructive revival in business and industry wherever there has been a halting, may be expected to set in soon. NEED MEN OF COURAGE IN PUBLIC OFFICE. Indiscriminate and unjust abuse of men in public positions is reprehensible and should be denounced. It has a very unsalutary effect upon the morale of official life, and causes many a good man steadfastly to refuse to take public office. Ut, generally speaking, there are too many men in office who pursue pettifogging, demagogic tactics to keep themselves in position or to shield themselves from criticism. Of tentimes, by kalsonining the facts, or by concealing what the public should know, they give the impression of lacking in honor and dependability. In many instances, a public official who has failed in some undertaking in his official life, would be far stronger before the people. If he frankly admitted his failure and his errors of judgment. Men do these things in private life and candidly confess them. Why not in public life? Why not be absolutely frank with the public? BASEBALL cannot be cleaned as it should be with a whitewash brush. NEW “DRY” RULING PUZZLES OFFICIALS. Sheriff Jackson and other Oranges co authorities were pondering today over a new rule promulgated by Prohibition Commissioner J. F. Kramer and the attorney general, which had been received by Prohibition Agent Dan O'Leary in Los Angeles. This rule, according to Sheriff Jackson, makes it almost impossible for the prohibition enforcement officials to obtain search warrants to seek the mysterious copper boiler arrangement and home brew apparatus hidden away in the darkest closet of the cannest nook in the cellar. Hereforeto all the prohibition agent was required to do to obtain a search warrant from the U.S. attorney's office was to take an oath "on information and belief" that a man possessed a moonshine or home brew apparatus in his home or place of business. Now all that is changed. To obtain a search warrant now the prohibition agent must swear he has "personal knowledge" that the suspect has a still or beer-making machine in his possession. Sheriff Jackson says this sort of information does not often fall into the pathway of the most vigilant and energetic official. One new ruling follows another according to Sheriff Jackson, and these requirements make the matter very confusing for him. He said this proposition was discussed at the recent convention of sheriffs held in Sacramento and that they were all more or less muddled up in the matter, because of the conflicting rulings issued by the power that be. Jackson says it appears now that a government official must be present at the time a place is searched by any other officer; else there is no possible chance of conviction. Local authorities are badly handled by this ruling and it will be a difficult matter to handle the situation, he says.

In many instances, a public official who has failed in some undertaking in his official life, would be far stronger before the people if he frankly admitted his failure and his errors of judgment.

ONE IS the better from familiarity with the Lord's Prayer and Golden Rule. IT would be far better if more persons went to the country to live, instead of to die. THE CHIEF retrenchment tool needed by the California legislature seems to be the pruning hook. IN THE bright lexicon of the California legislature, "retrench" should be one of the foremost words. NOTHING IS more important, in any community in this nation, than the physical and moral welfare of children. WITH THE exception of ten members, the public is pretty sure it knows who will be in Mr. Harding's cabinet. THE MOVEMENT to rescue Armenia from the bloody Turk is as near to breaking speed laws as is the proverbial snail. THIS SHOULD always be a broad-gauge nation which should scorn to stoop to pettiness in its domestic or foreign affairs. THE PEOPLE determine the size of congress by brain-weight, not by the multiplication table applied to its membership. USE CALIFORNIA soil products. Give loyal support to this state's industries. When these home enterprises thrive, you get the reflex benefit of the thriving. HENRY CLAY'S famous words, "I would rather be right than be president," must not be construed too narrowly. It is very possible to be right and also to be president. INVITE YOUR relatives and friends to come to California. Ask them to come for a visit, if you will, and let the lure of this state get in its work in inducing them to become permanent residents. THE MAJORITY of the American people live in cities. But a majority of this nation is longing and planning for the time when it will be possible to retire and move from the city out into the country. THE OLIVE is a palatable, nutritious IT IS not the size of America's standing army that, per se, impresses the world so profoundly. But it is the potential size of the army that the United States is capable of raising, training and equipping within a brief time that makes strong impress upon it the world war. A great army strikingly in this country's participation in the world war. A great army of 4,000,000 men was assembled and made fit for service within a period surprising to countries not accustomed to move with the colority that marks America when it sets about doing anything. The Village Gossip Ed Waite, 60, of 1608 N. Broadway, Santa Ana, set foot in real snow for the first time in his life on Mt. Lowe Friday, it was learned, following the return of the 125 Santa Anans who made the trip on the special P. E. cars under the asuplices of the Santa Ana C. of C. "I did not realize what I was missing." Waite told members of the party as he crunched thru the crisp dry snow oil on the summit of Mt. Lowe. Snowball battles were enjoyed by the party. Snow on the top of the mountain was from six to eight inches deep on the level. Pine trees covered with ice and snow glistening in the sunlight and the crisp and snappy mountain air were beautiful sights that made a deep impression on many who made the trip. The splendid service and many courtesies extended by the P.E. on the trip were greatly appreciated by the party as was the noonday meal served in the Alpine tavern. Mrs. William Webb, Jr., has decided that she will always wash dishes without murmur. For, the other night as Mrs. Webb (who until a few weeks ago was Miss Cora Davis) was standing in her shiny new kitchen, washing her dainty dishes, she was interrupted by a serenade under her kitchen window. The strains sounded like "Love's Old Sweet Song." Mrs. Webb listened intently. She decided that it was "Love's Old Sweet Song" and that the music was intended especially for her. The music became fainter and fainter and a nosily noise on the front porch became noisier, so Mrs. Webb opened the front door. There they were, all the teachers from the Fullerton grammar school, where Mrs. Webb had taught for a year and a half before she became Mrs. Webb. And with the teachers came a grand lot of kitchen gifts with some very clever rhymes and one much grander gift from the whole school to show Mrs. Webb that she was much missed and very much loved. And that's the reason why Mrs. Webb thinks she will always like to wash dishes. If you have chanced to walk along Chapman-ave, Fullerton, lately, past INVITE YOUR relatives and friends to come to California. Ask them to come for a visit, if you will, and let the lure of this state get in its work in inducing them to become permanent residents. THE MAJORITY of the American people live in cities. But a majority of this nation is longing and planning for the time when it will be possible to retire and move from the city out into the country. THE OLIVE is a palatable, nutritious fruit. California produces some of the very best olives on earth. Eat more of them. You thereby will benefit yourself and also promote the olive-growing industry. COUNTRY LIFE is like the Bilble, in If you have chanced to walk along Chapman-ave, Fullerton, lately, past the home of L. O. Culp, you have surely seen a sight that caused you to wonder, for off to one side of the house is a tiny mound, surrounded with a neat row of red geraniums and over it all a monument. It's true the monument is only a plain pine board and the inscription very simple but it all represents a tragedy of childhood. The inscription reads, "Here's to Jazbo." Now, "Jazbo," was a frolicksome little gray and white kitten, a veritable piece of fluff and the exclusive and private property of Ralph and Lois Culp. The fact of the matter is, Jazbo was the pet of the entire neighborhood. He walked along Chapman-ave one morning last fall and after looking the situation over decided upon Mr. Culp's house as a future home. He came, he saw, he conquered—and soon he was well known throut the neighborhood. He could play without scratching or he could lie before the fireplace and purse a sweet song. What more could be said of any kitten? And, added to this, he had youth and beauty. But one night Jazbo wandered away from home. He didn't come back the next day, or the next night. And Ralph found him down on Chapman-ave, a poor little kitty who would never play again. Ralph and Lois dug the tiny grave for him and erected his tombatone and the little mound where Jazbo now lies is kept covered with fresh flowers.
