DAILY GREETING TO OUR HEADERS Lands mortgaged may return, and more entered; But honestly, once pawned, is never redeemed—Mindleton. The United States should be as free of illiteracy as it is of yellow fever. When the popples bloom California is a veritable Field of the Cloth of Gold. Some marriages were not made in honeymoon, and should not have been made anywhere. The strange thing is that a jury of women can bring in a verdict without a postscript to it. It is inevitable that some alleged wit will come along and call Mr. Ford's synthetic cow a thin Bossy. How many of the Edison questions can you answer blindfolded and with your hands tied behind you? At any rate, there is no ground for complaining that material is being wasted in making women's dresses. Ohio is the Babe Ruth in the game of politics—it knocks out more Presidential home runs than any other state. The air has its tragedies no less horrible than the land and the sea. Man has not yet learned absolute control of the elements or of the great forces and powerful devices which he has impressed into his service. Honoring the heroic American dead in foreign lands was more general and more impressive this year than ever before. The more Europe thinks of America's part in the World War, the warmer becomes the impulse, over there, to show appreciation of the noble, unselfish American soldiery to the cause of world freedom. SALE OF DRESSES for What wonderful stories of wisdom have come down to this generation from the sages of ages long past! Re-read the "Diagnoses of Plato," for example, and note the keenness of mental power and the profundity of wisdom of Socrates. Note the profound understanding of human nature demoted in the Socratic questioning. One cannot read and study these great philosophies of ancient Greece without becoming a deeper and sounder thinker and reasoner. GENERAL PORTER'S CAREER OF EMINENCE ENDS. Death removes another dashing and renowned military commander of the Union forces in the Civil War, General Horace Porter. He rose to the rank of brigadier-general and saw stirring service on the staff of General Grant. His book, "Campaigning With Grant," is a notable contribution to historical literature bearing upon the Civil War period. General Porter was the last survivor of the staff of the silent man who was destined to be chief commander of the Union forces through the greater portion of the war. General Porter, after the war, led an active and useful career. He was Assistant Secretary of War for a time and became General Grant's private secretary after the latter was elected to the Presidency. From 1857 to 1905 General Porter was ambassador to France, having been appointed by President McKinley. One of his notable achievements in this position was to find in Paris the body of Admiral John Paul Jones. Through General Porter's action and influence the bones of America's first great heroic naval commander were recovered and brought back to repose in American soil. The heroes of the Civil War are fast passing away. Death, no respecter of persons, has taken the gallant commanders until but few remain. The rank and file of survivors of the Union armies are thinning pathetically, from year to year. Not many years hence there will remain not a single survivor of the armies of Grant and Sherman and Sheridan—there will not remain a single civilian who lived in those stirring days.

SALE OF DRESSES for LITTLE WOMEN "Just the dress I want at just the price I wish to pay," is what you will say when you see the wonderful assortment of models which are included in the very special sale in which the littlest part is the price. Pretty New Organdies at $7.25 up to $22.50 THE PRINCE STORE ANAHEIM HELP SALVAGE CHIPPLES AMONG CHILDREN There is nothing so unspeakably pathetic as a child helplessly crippled, either by birth deformity or from accident or disease. There is no class of human unfortunates that should appeal—and that does appeal—more strongly to human sympathies than the hapless little cripples. He or she must be of flint heart indeed who is not moved with deep compassion for these marred, warped little bodies. There has grown up, in Los Angeles, within the last decade, an organized philanthropic movement to salvage these little physical wrecks. The Crippled Children's Guild grown to a membership of 800, has brought about the establishment of the Orthopedic Hospital, in which 435 children are being treated for defects or deformities, and from this institution 140 have sent forth cured. 50 per cent of the disabled children helped age eventually enabled to become self-supporting. But this noble work has outgrown its accommodations and equipment, 20 children are on the waiting list. Their needs are distressingly pressing. John Brockman of Los Angeles, has donated an estate, once known as Singleton court, to the Orthopedic Foundation on condition that a Class A building be erected on this site within this calendar year. The greater part of the building fund of $100,000 has been subscribed, Mrs. Anita Baldwin gives action and influence the bones of Americans' first great heroic naval commander were recovered and brought back to repose in American soil.

Not many years hence there will remain not a single survivor of the armies of Grant and Sherman and Sheridan—there will not remain a single civilian who lived in those stirring days. Time and Death are the two great inexorables of the universe. Against them armies might contend in vain. Upon them might be hurled—were it possible—the most deadly projectiles—and yet they would keep on in their grim, relentless, desolating course.

But a balance of the additional $50,000, must be raised to provide for equipment and operating expenses for the first year. Generous hearted residents of Southern California have their opportunity in this and are urged to aid this exceptional worthy and appealing cause. The work is not conned to Los Angeles, but is for the crippled children of the Soutinland. God gives the world children. They are the raw material from which character and destiny are shaped. Each and all are brought into partnership with Providence to assist in giving these little ones a square deal in life. Interest yourself in this cripple-saving work.

Slayback, 1036 Citizens' National Bank building, and the treasurer is W. E. McVay, Guaranty Trust and Savings Bank, Los Angeles. DISARMAMENT CAUSE IS PRESSED BY WOMEN The general cause of world disarmament is to be pressed, under the auspices of the National League of Women Voters. Efforts will be made to enlist the women of other nations, to influence their respective governments to favor disarmament policies. The issues of war and peace are of direct and profound concern to the women of America, and their voice and their influence will be felt strongly—as they should be—in determining this thing, in the future. Which is not to say or to assume that American women are any less sagacious or less patriotic than the men. Loyal American women are just as much interested as loyal American men in keeping this country adequately prepared to defend itself should it be attacked by an armed foe. At the same time American women are unalterably opposed to militarism and to needless warfare. Their influence will be seniary, without doubt, in keeping this nation to a wise and peace promoting course. Dorothy Ward, London musical comedy player appearing in "Pucche of Quality Street," has evidently decided to take an interest in this country for several years to come. For already she has begun scouting for a Long Island country place worth much fine gold, and members of the Great Neck theatrical colony are answering the telephone to deny that they are intending to sell theirs. "The New York postoffice handles 15,000,000 pieces of mail daily and 35,000 of the pieces in any 24 hours are misdirected. Mirrors have a good many uses in life. It seems especially if they stand in public places. Even those in the penny slot machines arise to unexpected utilitarianism at times. One weighing machine in the Fourteenth-station of the East Side subway evidently had been named as a meeting place the other day. For scrawled in letter of white, apparently made with soap was the message: "Jane—I was here at 5:15. Where were you? Tom." Beneath it was a reply written in red—with a lipstick: "I was there too. Perhaps you came on standard time and I on daylight. Jane." Justine Johnstone now avers that she will become a picture producer as well as a player for no less purpose than "to defend her sex against the false impressions which are being railed by present-day motion pictures." Her first production will be called "Fifth Avenue," and will set forth the "development of women in social and civic life during the last quarter of a century, with the growth of New York's famous street as a symbol." The gayest looking place in this city now is that part of the far East side, way over by the river, where tenements have given way to really fashionable houses. For some reason, maybe the breaking away from the state-ly neighborhood where they had lived so long, maybe the sight of the river and some green along its shore—anyway, for some reason, the new tenants have turned joyfully to light, bright colors for the painting of their houses. You find a friend's house, not by the number on the door, but because she has told you that it's the second one from the corner that has a Nile green door, or one of Chinese blue with a big brass knocker. It is refreshing after the cliff of great stone smelting. When the particular social luminary has "arrived," Mrs. King's headquarters will advise her steps as she treads the marzy path of social success. What is work? And why do you work? Is marriage work? Those are a few of the questions the National Board of Y.W.C.A. is going to find out about. Now that Thomas A. Edison has started a flood of acaemic questions abroad in the land, the Y.W.C.A. is going to send out a list of decidedly practical ones. Personal opinion, not the verdict of historians of geography, will be what's wanted as replies. A convention resolution was adopted by the Board recently for studying of the place and significance of work in the life of woman and then—here's the particularly practical note for the promotion of the necessary instruction. The questionnaire being compiled will ask for a definition of work, and including that disputed question noted above, anant marriage. Then it will ask why the questioned persons work. For necessities? A desire for self-expression? Among the other questions already framed are: What is the value of work? Why is having to work sometimes regarded as undesirable? If you were married, would you work? What reward does a married woman receive for caring for her home? Does a home-maker love to spend as much money as before she was married? From the replies to these queries—and many more—the Y.W.C.A. classes will be planned to meet as best they can what seem to be the chief demands for vocational training. WEST SHOULD WAKE UP TO POWER NEED WASHINGTON, D.C., June 1—California and the west should wake up to the necessity of increasing its hydro electric power development. In the opinion of Congressman Arthur M. Free of San Jose, Congressman Said: "If the power problem of the west is to be solved successfully for the years to come the public at large must realize the necessity of meeting the situation. The problem of obtaining power and having it in the future is one that glitterly lags." New York Letter by Larry Sidney Price NEW YORK LETTER ing to be rolling in wealth shortly. That is if we can serape together the fare to Monte Carlo—and have no compunctions against going there for the age-old reason for going to Monte Carlo. For A. Baschi has landed in New York to begin a tour of instruction on how to break the bank. He modestly and convincingly admits that he has perfected a system which renders roulette wheels and other gambling devices mere playthings. It is said—or he himself said—that he has broken the bank at Monte Carlo so many times that he has been barred from there by the Prince of Monaco. Now, I know that one ought not to judge anyone by the superficial matter of money-to-spend, but I can't help feeling that Just to-me personally, Mr. Baschi would have been still more convincing in his role as one who could teach us all how to bring back that gambling wealth if he didn't himself come over on the steamer second class. One man on Manhattan Island refuses to get interested in the straw hat windows no matter how fair the day may be. That's Harry Kemp, the poet. He scorns hats, oh! most scornfully. He walks bareheaded past the haberdasheries, defiance in every step. "Certainly, I'd rather spend my money for books," he replied when some one questioned him, "But it isn't economy of money I am particularly interested in. It's economy of hair! Hats make you baldheaded." And Harry Kemp is enough of a poet to realize the value of his saved hairs. With the shops showing velvet, trimmed bathing suits, and with 78 women out of every hundred buying long jade ear-rings, husbands and fathers are breathing a sigh of thanksgiving that the style in straw hats (for men) has changed but little since last season, and every hat-cleaning place in town is working overtime. It was natural, perhaps, that the biggest reaction that P. W. Kellogg, business manager of the Los Angeles Express, got from his recent trip to Europe, had to do with the price of newsprint. I was a little disappointed when he made this plain to me when he got back to New York on the Aquitania. I had hoped for some red-hot inside stuff that the managing editors I serve would be tempted to "kill out" of my column and use on page one, with the brightest head the copy desk could produce. Come to think of it. I guess that Mr. Kellogg after all gave me a good story when he said that the biggest news he ran into on the other side was that the available supply of newspapers in Norway, Sweden, Finland and Germany, is greatly oversaturated, and that $0,000 tons represents all of the paper they have for export. "The impression that there was a limitless supply over there is probably due to the fact that at least 19 brokers in America are trying to sell this same $0,000 tons," Mr. Kellogg said. Brooklyn has welcomed and challenged the croquet champion of Australia. Anyone who is inclined to think the world has moved far too rapidly or that the present generation lives only on, hy and for excitement will do well to read and dwell upon these lines. Brooklyn is the American home of croquet, anyway, and has a perfect right to issue its challenge to this Australian girl—yes, it's a girl—in the name of the whole country. When Newport dropped croquet—years before any of us can remember, my dear—it was Brooklyn which rescued the game from death and has coddled it along ever since. Now it is going to vindicate its care and attention, and let Britain beware! Of 10 Power Need WASHINGTON, D. C., June 1—California and the west should wake up to the necessity of increasing its hydro electric power development, in the opinion of Congressman Arthur M. Free of San Jose. Congressman Free said: “If the power problem of the west is to be solved successfully for the years to come to handle the problem alone. It is one for all and in which the public itself must become interested. “Electricity is the coming propulsive medium in the west. Our oil supply is dwindling and the railroads cannot afford to haul coal clear across.” Newport dropped croquet—years before any of us can remember, my dear. It was Brooklyn which rescued the game from death and has coddled it along ever since. Now it is going to vindicate its care and attention, and let Britain beware! It looks as though we were coming to the underground moving sidewalk as a desperate solution of our traffic problem—which is itself desperate enough to grasp at anything that waves the flag of hope. Engineers of the transit commission of the city are devising a plan for the construction of moving platforms beneath the sidewalk on Forty-second street straight across Manhattan from river to river. It is said these platforms would not only relieve the subway congestion at this crossway but would make possible the removal of the surface cars from Forty-second-st, and so give automobiles and pedestrians full sway. Maybe eventually we can carry on all our business underground and make a park of the Island's surface. Then malden namers" scored a jubilant victory the other day when Ruth Hale, who is happily married to Heywood Broun, go her name on a real estate deed as Ruth Hale, rather than Mrs. Broun. She and her husband bought a piece of property together, but in spite of the mutual agreement of he two as to nomenclature, the other principals in the deal shied at the idea. Finally, with the aid of her lawyers, Ruth Hale convinced them of the legality of it. Miss Hale is president of the Lucy Stone league, an organization of 50 women banded together to assert the inalienable right of a woman to the name she drew from her parents early in life. Maybe it's the example of Mrs. Lydig Hoyt and her plunge into the movies which has spurred her sister, Mrs. Van Resselaer C. King, equally prominent in New York society, into doing something still more startling. Mrs. King calls her enterprise "a business career." Anyway, she has just established a firm known as the Town and Country Secretariat, Inc., which proposes to place qualified persons in that particular "set" of society to which they are best adapted.

Arrangements must be made whereby all western states can be supplied with electrical energy at fair and equal terms. Electric power must not be controlled by any one state or municipality, for California cannot benefit thru reduced freight rates unless the operating cost thru Arizona, Nevada, Utah and other states is reduced likewise. Therefore it would be unfair to California to insist that all power developed in the state be kept there. We would be the losers instead of the beneficiaries thru any policy of restriction. The California Railroad Commission assures, thru the public regulation of rates and services of power utilities fair play for the producer and consumer alike. The railroad commission needs the cooperation of the public as well as of the power companies. KITCHEN SHOWER IS GIVEN BRIDE-ELEST LA HABRA, June 3.—Miss Eunice Lutewiller, was the honoree at a delightful affair given at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Chester Scheubach, at Balboa Beach, Sunday.
