That weapon of her weakness, which can wield. To save—subdue—at once her spear and shield. Bryon. Far better for any nation or people to be bankrupt materially than to be bankrupt in ideals and moral standards. A revival in the building of dwellings throughout the country is report-This is something to be encouraged in every community. Why should the United States fill the Pacific dreadnaughts, and yet not provide suitable bases in which to shelter and repair them, in event of war. Once Europe settles definitely and permanently the issue growing out of the World War and once it settles down to peaceful activities, economic rehabilitation will be rapid. Have courage, and do things in the business world, is the advice of Governor Harding of the Federal Reserve Board. The time is at hand, economic experts say, to forge ahead. The way is clear for constructive action. Have pride in beautifying your own premises and in making more significantly the block and section of the city in which you live. Beauty is an inspiration, an uplifting influence, an asset that no community can afford to ignore. While Justice well may be blindfolded, to betoken that the goddess is no respecter of persons, yet she should be level of head and swift of hand and foot, to deal out justice without delay. "The law's delay" is in itself a species of injustice in many cases. President Harding holds, in the matter of economy, that what is sauce for the Congress goose is sauce for the cabinet gander. In other words in insisting that Congress retrench in appropriation the President is also firmly resolved that his cabinet shall keep within the respective sums appropriated for them—they shall not overspend and then call upon Congress to make up the resultant deficiency. Many admirers of Judge Landis are pleased to learn that he is preparing to retire from the bench, and thus criticize the criticism that has been made of him for holding his place as national attorney for prominent baseball. It has been a pretty general conclusion, it is to be supposed, that he could give up one or the other of these posts. If he chooses to cast his lot with baseball—as seemingly he is bent on doing—the game will be the gainers. His functioning is inspiring confidence in baseball at a time when the faith of the public has been wavering. The world war may not have made over the world into bettered newness, as was fondly predicted at the time, but it is a different world—a world in flux, and from this fluxing process should come a new and a better status for mankind. Into this newness, the world, it seems must "come up through great tribulation." Political, industrial and social ferment disquiet this old planet. There yet are "wars and rumors of wars." There is yet unsettledness and vague fears of bloody conflicts. But in the midst of tumult and passion, hardship and impoverishment, there is rainbows on the clouds—dim now, it is true, but with colors becoming baby crops and no stray well known tives sons swelled by as can be canopy.

Cali While Justice well may be blindfolded, to betoken that the goddess is no respecter of persons, yet she should be level of head and swift of hand and foot, to deal out justice without delay. "The law's delay" is in itself a species of injustice in many cases. The United States is not opposed to disarmament and will put no obstacle in its way. And yet the government at Washington is not disposed to rush in impetuously with disarmament proposals that might go awry and might set back the cause, rather than promote it. Love children. Be pals with them. Enter into their joys and their hurts and disappointment with understanding sympathy. Be one with them. They will love and trust you for it and you, whatever your age, will be more youthful and more buoyant in spirit because of this affection and sincere sympathy for youngsters. Promotional agencies, here in California, must be everlastingly at it, to keep this state effectively boosted before the world. Widely and favorably known though California is, its excellence should be impressed upon the millions living beyond its borders who might be induced to come here to live permanently or temporarily, and to invest here. If Warren G. Harding, as newaboy, had not been square, honest and industrious, Warren G. Harding would not have become President of the United States. Every honest and in- BIRTH RATE HIGH. DEATH RATE LOW The stork is outdistancing the undertaker in California. The number of births during 1920 showed a big increase over the previous year. Births exceeded deaths, within the year, by more than 20,000. The birth rate, based on the state's population, was the highest, in 1920. It ever was—13.3 per 1000 population. The death rate of 13.5 per 1000 was the lowest since 1909. The infant mortality was notably low for the year. This is a showing of which to be proud. It augurs well for California. For the salubity of the climate, combined with scientific sanitation and expert care of the public health, may be expected to contribute more and more to the vigor of California's population. The notable increase in births evidences that there is no semblance of "race suicide" in California.

Conditions in the Old World have had reflex influence here—and still have. Change in national administration at Washington has halted the recovery somewhat. But now that the administration is installed and its policies are unfolded, finance, business and industry are reshaping themselves, and the processes of readjustment are in full swing. There are hitches here and there that delay the return to normal in economics. There are obstructions which must be removed. But as the number of these decrease, so the certainty that they will be swept aside without undue delay is manifest. Whatever stands in the way of a "safe and sane" and enduring economic level must be put aside. The currents of business, industry and finance must move steadily and healthily.

NEW YORK Letter by Luca Jeanne Price NEW YORK May 9. — Edward Rochie Hardy, 12-year-old prodigy of Columbia University, is the happiest boy in the freshman class. All because he is still sore in every muscle from some rough treatment he got a few days ago. Young Hardy defied the sophomore rule against freshmen wearing neckties that were not either black or green. A class riot was the result, in which the sophomores triumphed over the first year boys to the extent and kidnapping the prodigy and bearing him away for discipline. He was blindfolded, thrown into a taxi, and locked up in a safe deposit vault over night. Oh! all the thrills dear to a freshman's heart were his! And his happy grin hasn't faded since! He's now "one of the boys." And he was afraid he never would be. His youth and the publicity given his remarkable mental achievement would be too much too live down, he felt dispairingly sure. "S'all right," he declared, in un-prodigy-like English. "I'm strong for this rough stuff." Ten hours a day isn't a minute too much to work—if one is hale and hearty and 105 years old. So says James Murray, gatekeeper at Trinity Cemetery. For 60 years he has held the job, and has rather got in the habit of it, so it has never occurred to him to give it up or ask to be retired for age. "Bite-bars" are the latest. They are just quick-lunch counters, but because so many of them are transformed bars, New York has given them the more reminiscent name. It likes the sound of it better. Scene shifting by means of light instead of huxky shoulders is soon to be the fashion, in at least three New York theaterists. Nicholas de Lipsky, Russian artists, has taken the long-time spirit of Times Brought Marmon Cup. The severe cut in Marmon price announced at a time when it thought auto prices had been stalled, was made in keeping with demands of the public and in accord with the spirit of the times, according to Ray Townsend, of Townsend, Medbury, local agents for the Marmon. The Marmon company does not believe that any company can sit tight during the period of high prices as assail in starting prosperity in this country," says Townsend. "A standup policy is not in accord with the recent announcement of per cent reduction in steal. Press inventories are worth only their production values." "The $4485 Marmon with the new price here is identical with the $550 Marmon, except that it is really a better car by reason of the increased efficiency at the factory, due to no material production. EXPECT 500 WILL VISIT CAMP CAJO! Bewtween five and six hundred pounds will join in the auto run to Carlo Jacon next Saturday under the auspices of the Orange-co., Auto Trade Association, in the opinion of Roberts Atkinson, chairman of the committee in charge of arrangements. The general public is invited by the trade association to accompany the tradesmen on the trip. Atkinson declared that the trunk is one of the prettiest in Southland. He made a special run to camp last week, accompanied Mrs. Atkinson, for the purpose of getting first hand information as to situation at the camp. It is 70 miles from Santa Ana Camp Cajon," said Atkinson: "The road leads through pretty sections along the trip is interesting as anyone. So Cali he grade is easy and Do they grow fruit in California? Are the people civilized and peaceful here. Is this a healthy place in which to live? These interesting and important points are raised in a letter recently received by C. C. Chapman, probably on account of a recent article written about him and published in the American magazine. The letter which was addressed to "The Orange King of California, Orange, California," found its way to Mr. Chapman, and it is worth reading for several reasons, one of which is the need of sending missionaries to West Virginia. The letter reads: Algonquin W.V.A.

They are just quick-lunch counters, but because so many of them are transformed bars, New York has given them the more reminiscent name. It likes the sound of it better. Scene shifting by means of light instead of husky shoulders is soon to be the fashion in at least three New York theaters. Nicholas de Lipsky, Russian artists, has taken the long-known fact that light of certain colors will wipe out certain other colors, and has applied it with remarkable results. Two designs are painted on the same canvas, each in colors which may be eliminated by light of the other colors. Both designs are visible under ordinary white or mixed light and appear as a confused mass of lines and color. Under the proper colored light, however, the colors of one become invisible and those of the other take on new shades and appear vividly. Madame Pavlowa danced, in consequence, the other evening, in the room of a palace and then in the garden outside without ever a scene being shifted; just an instantaneous change of lights. Idea has been snapped up by Hugo Kiesenfeld of the Rivoli, Rialto and Criterion theaters, and will be developed there by de Lipsky in all its possibilities. It's difficult to get over the idea of letting men bear the burden of expense, isn't it? Women have been rather swanky about the fact that they could take men into their women's clubs for lunch and the men couldn't pay for it. Club rules didn't allow anyone but members to sign the checks. But apparently it was the novelty of it that appealed to the newly enunciated sex. For the new Woman's National Club to be erected here shortly has taken definite steps to overcome that situation whereby "the woman pays." "Exclusiveness is all very well," they explained, "but we're going to have a guest membership for them. Otherwise women who invite men here will have to sign the dinner checks and later on pay them. We will limit active membership to women, but there must be some sort of check-paying membership for men." There must be something particularly annoying about having one's property used in attacks upon one. A renting company tried the other day to get possession of 200 pieces of porcelain valued at $2000 to satisfy a judgment against Mrs. Claudia Windsor Tartoue, who is suing and being sued by her husband, Pierre Tartoue, for divorce. "My wife never owned those porcelain sets. They were mine," said Mr. Tartoue. "What do you mean, 'they were'?" asked the deputy. "Ah, they are no more," sighed the artist.

ET 500 WILL SIT CAMP CAJON In five and six hundred per month in the auto run to Camp Saturday under the auspice Orange-co, Auto Trades in the opinion of Robert L. chairman of the committee of arrangements.

"The through pretty sections and as interesting as any in the grade are easy and the grounds for the excursion party from Orange-co. There is parking room for 200 to 250 cars, and the curtodian gave assurance that there would be plenty of accommodations for all who go on the trip. "There are stoves and open fireplaces for broiling meats and those who would rather cook their dinner after arriving at the camp will find every facility. The store there will put in an extra supply of ice cream for the day. There are no restaurants, but canned goods may be had at the store. "I am particularly proud of the Swiss chalet erected at the camp by the Calif. Auto Trades association. The Orange-co. association contributed to the fund. On the round table built for the association is inscribed the following: 'The California Auto Trades association invites you to a round table and a square deal.' Timid drivers, men and women are afraid to venture on a trip distant from home because of the possibility of tire or motor trouble should have no hesitancy in becoming members of the excursion. The battery, tire and garage craft have arranged for a service car that will take care of any kind of trouble that may develop along the road. ANNOUNCE DATE OF VETS' ENCAMPMENT August 2 to 12 has been named as the date for the annual encampment of the So. Calif. Veterans' association, according to announcement today by Judge O. H. Maryatt. The encampment will be held in Santa Monica canyon. It will be the first time in many years that the encampment has been held elsewhere than at Huntington Beach where oil development has played havoc with the grounds used by the veterans and by the Methodist summer assembly. The two organizations will occupy the same grounds in Santa Monica canyon. LEAVE FOR LONG TOUR Mr. and Mrs. J. A.
