DAILY GREETING
The glorious Author of the universe,
Who reins the winds, gives the vast ocean bounds,
And circumscribes the floating worlds their bounds!
—Gay.
THE FIRST rule of reason and conciliation should prevail in industrial affairs.
STREET TRAFFIC should be made as safe as effort, money and ingenius device can render it.
FRIENDSHIP BETWEEN the U. and the republics of Latin America should be promoted by every practicable and effective means.
THE MOST transcendently important thing in the history of the world is the fact that Jesus Christ was resurrected from the dead.
ANY REPORT to the effect that there is an acute shortage of persons seeking office under the Harding administration may be taken with several grains of sodium chloride.
STANDARD REPUTABLE clubs, and social, fraternal and patriotic organizations, are doing a vast deal to inspire men and women to loftier thought and to nobler purposes and impulses in living. These organizations exert a manifestly good influence on community life.
BETTER QUALITY of motion pictures, promised by producers, will be welcomed. Improvement in quality should include, not only moral aspects, but artistic properties as well. While a good many good pictures, from the standpoint of art, are put forth, there are also many that are open to severe criticism, as being lacking in art merits.
THE UNITED STATES would be untrust to itself and to its best trainee.

in the west will be considered, particularly the expansion of mining of coal in Alaska. It will be brought out in papers and discussions, that bigger investments are required, to finance mining development in the Alaska field. The whole subject of fuel for manufacture and for commerce in this section will be discussed exhaustively, and from the discussions should come practical benefit.
The same is true as to the regrettable present state of gold mining. Ways and means may be suggested to bolster up the price of gold to bring the precious metal back into the prosperous position it has held up until recent years.
These congresses and conferences are of importance only as they develop practical benefits in exchange of ideas, in suggestion of new methods, or in evolving of experiments and processes into practicable, workable form.

The author of this statement was one of England's most famous men of science, whose discoveries gave to the world knowledge which has perpetuated his memory.
Sir Humphry Davy was the man. He was born in 1778 in Penzance, a little town in England—a name perhaps better remembered because of one of the Gilbert and Sullivan operas—the "Pirate of Penzance."

THE UNITED STATES would be unfit to itself and to its best traditions if it put any stumbling block of opposition or indifference in the way of any well-matured plan for bringing about perpetual just peace throughout the world. There is no likelihood that this Nation will take any step seriously at variance with its traditional attitude as a promoter of world peace.
MR. LANSING'S STAND ON PEACE DEFINED
The book of Robert Lansing, former secretary of State on The Peace Negotiations," has been awaited with eagerness. Out of deference to Mr. Wilson, publication of the book was deferred by Mr. Lansing until after Mr. Wilson had retired from the presidency.
Those facts about the book, which are made public indicate that, on several important points touching problems coming before the peace conference, Mr. Lansing sharply differed from Mr. Wilson and that he either told him so, or endeavored to acquaint him with his difference of opinion. Due allowance must be made, of course, for the difference in temperament of the two men, which may account, in large measure, for the differences in methods which they advocated.
Mr. Lansing's strong stand against the Shantung agreement, will be received with considerable sympathy throughout the country inasmuch as there has been much feeling averse to the United States being a party to this proviso which gives Japan a hold upon China that multitudes of Americans regard with disfavor. It is interesting to note that Mr. Lansing holds that Mr. Wilson was drawn into acceptance of this Shantung agreement by blackmailing, bluffing methods on the part of Japan.
It is but fair, however, on this and other points criticised by Mr. Lansing, to be open-minded until Mr. Wilson has opportunity to present, in extenso, his version of his attitude and of the general situation and diverse events of the peace conference. No snap judgment should be taken as to Mr. Wilson's course in these historical negotiations. Let the truth be known with all its legitimate angles, and let unbiased judgment be formed upon this enforcement in truth.
HOPE OF RESURRECTION BUOYS MANKIND
There is not a rational human being who does not take thought of the world knowledge which has perpetuated his memory.
Sir Humphry Davy was the man. He was born in 1778 in Penzance, a little town in England—a name perhaps better remembered because of one of the Gilbert and Sullivan operas—the "Pirate of Penzance."
Davy received the rudiments of a classical education and then was placed with a surgeon to learn what he could of the profession. In connection with his work Davy had much to do with the compounding of chemicals and drugs and he early acquired a fondness for scientific experiments. So much in earnest was the lad and so successful were his efforts, that at the age of 24 he was made professor of chemistry of the Royal Institute. In 1803 he was chosen a member of the Royal Society.
The research work and experiments of Sir Humphry in the realm of metallurgy and the discovery of the galvanic battery, brought him a wide reputation and in 1810 he was awarded the prize of the French Institute. Four years later he was elected a corresponding member of that scientific body. He was now elected professor of chemistry to the board of agriculture and in that capacity lectured on agricultural chemistry for ten successive years.
Perhaps the best known invention of Sir Humphry's is the Davy Safety Lamp. The many accidents which were occurring in the British mines led him to investigate the cause. Upon learning of the nature of the gas which caused the frequent explosions and fires accompanied, of course, by many fatalities, he set about making a safety lamp which is known as the "Davy lamp." It has resulted in a great saving of human life.
Sir Humphry Davy died at Geneva in 1888—Wayna D. McMurray.
Letters From People
CYPRESS, Mar. 29, 1921.
Hello Folks!
Just finished reading "The Road to Understanding," by Eleanor Porter. It is a good illustration of how much trouble little things cause, differences of manners, tastes, etc. What are good manners? Just a lot of little rules established by the different planes of society. A master of these little things that show "culture" may travel with the "elite" when his true character would regulate him to the coarse, beastly type. On the other hand, a man may have all the sterling qualities of character and yet may not have attained the art of buttering his bread or using a certain fork or laughing in just the right pitch, and be termed coarse and vulgar by the "upper crust." It isn't what you do but how you do it that counts with the "swells."
It appears that character should count first. Culture may be attained by many who are really coarse. Culture is the outside coating; character comes from inside out.
Mr. Wilson has opportunity to present in extenso his version of his attitude and of the general situation and diverse events of the peace conference. No snap judgment should be taken as to Mr. Wilson's course in these historical negotiations. Let the truth be known with all its legitimate angles, and let unbiased judgment be formed upon this enlightenment in truth.
HOPE OF RESURRECTION BUOYS MANKIND
There is not a rational human being who does not take thought of this life and of the life that is to come. The number who outright disbelieve or who are in doubt as to whether or not there is a future life, is so small as to be negligible. The makers of mankind today, as in all ages since history began, as in all future existence. Even the most ignorant savages believe. The highest types of civilized men have faith in a life beyond the tomb.
There is no faith more comforting than this. Indeed, it is essential to the happiness of humanity. It is the mainspring of all that is good. It lubricates the machinery of existence with the benign oil of hope. It nerves those who suffer and who harrife, to bear nobly and patiently. It is safe and secure anchorage for the soul. Without this faith, the human soul would go drifting almostlessly and hopelessly about the sea of existence.
The best of men and women must needs regard this life as incomplete, in and of itself. They must need regard it as a training school for a higher life—for the finishing school for eternity. If there were no hope of a future existence with rewards for goodness and punishment for wicked heels, there would be no strong impelling incentive to spend this life in unselfish sacrifice. It is true that the spirit and essence of unselfishness and devoted sacrifice gives low. But the present, finite joys recognized as only a foretaste of the inevitable bliss of the eternal world.

50 Merry Clowns With Howe's London Circus
Fifty of the world's best and merriest clowns are largely responsible for the attractiveness this year of the combination of Howe's Great London Circus and Van Amburg's Trained Wild Animals. There is not a moment during the three hours that the doors are open that the audience is not laughing at some droll stunt or funny antic of the great army of comedians.
In the ranks of the Howe-Van Amburg have originated all the best clown acts that people all over the world have laughed at for a half century. As usual, this season they have an entirely new array of amusing skits, pantomimes, burlesque and travesties. The arena swarms with merry fellows, each on the alert for mischief. They are the delight of the children, and grown-ups who cannot laugh had better see a doctor.
From Europe his come, an especially comic band of fun-makers, whose original and fantastic plays ups and quaint drollery are not to be resisted by man or child. Every place that the same has exhibited laughter has been the predominating feature and the funny aeroplane scene and grotesque lion taming specially have been received with shouts of merriment.
The Howe-Van Amburg combined shows will be in Anaheim on Thursday, April 7, two performances, at 2 and 5 p.m.
Don't fall to see "Kismet" starring Olia Skinner, Tonight, Wednesday and Thursday. Only one performance, starting at 7:45 p.m. At the Fairyland.
The Yeomen will give another "apron and overall" dance on Monday evening, I. O. O. F. Hall. Music by Helfer's Orchestra.
