be love and life be but a fairy ill,
illusion.
And the cold future bright but in fancy's young eye,
will let me live on in the dreamy debation,
and true and unchanging, hope on till I die—Mrs. Osgood.
Let it be remembered that one may be rich in millions but penniless in soul.
The American Red Cross holds—and deserves to hold—the confidence of the American people.
It's hope that all these June matrimonial matches will prove to have been made in heaven.
This is the season when to be careless with fire in a forest reserve is a magnant offense against public safety. One fire with extreme care!
Whether the United States gives full independence to the Philippines now or later, independence is surely to be given. This Nation never violates its solemn pledge.
While the United States may not at present enter upon disarmament, yet it keeps itself armed with motives which daunt suspicion throughout the world that anything aggressional is intended.
Whatever the trend of discussion, from time to time here is no likelihood that the authorities at Washington will fall into the agregious folly of removing the Pacific fleet from Great waters, or reducing its strength.
The United States merchant navy should be built up to such proportions as would give this Nation the ascendancy in world trade. Opportunities believing premiership in world peace never were brighter than

brave men should not be the victims of indifference or mistreatment in any form.
The whole country mourns the tragic end of Colonel Frederick C. Galbraith, commander of the American Legion, whose gallant services in the World War will constitute an imperishable part of the brilliant record of the American Expeditionary Forces.
Economic readjustment is well on the way. So soon as the United States makes formal peace with the Central Powers and definitely launches upon its policy in world relations, there should be a normalizing of conditions both in this country and in Europe.
The American Red Cross is doing at Pueblo what it does in every locality in the land which may be stricken by disaster—taking the lead in effective relief work, in comforting and inspiring the victims of the catastrophe and in preparing for rehabilitation of devastated places.
The way to disarm the world is to have all the great powers agree to do each as much as the others to reduce armament and then all abide by the agreement. No one nation alone can bring about world disarmament. The United States can use—and is using—its influence to this end. But if it were to disarm itself there is no reason to believe that that course would induce other great nations to do likewise. Disarming must come simultaneously.
NEGLECT OF VETERANS IS INQUIRY SUBJECT
The United States Senate has voted an inquiry to ascertain definitively whether or not there is ground for the charges, often made, that disabled veterans of the World War are neglected in the hospitals where they are quartered and are receiving treatment. Senator Walsh of Massachusetts, who has made inquiries, avers that there is neglectful treatment of these unfortunate patriots.
Any neglect of this nature most assuredly should be remedied without delay. Should it be found that anyone, whatever his position, will full independent away this councilepledge or from this to this. It should to premature and selfish mercenary withholding of fitness of the man has been demolished.

Colohel Harvey's London speeches would not suffer any inconsistency if they were subjected to the censorious treatment of the White House blue pencil before being delivered. But Colohel Harvey is not the kind to submit to blue penciling.
One should not read more than one can digest and assimilate mentally. Much socalled reading is not reading at all, but mere skimming along the surface in a way to leave no lasting impression upon the reader and to give no worthy inspiration.
The world is no respecter of diplomas and degrees. Which is to say that a diploma may get young persons positions in which they may demonstrate their capabilities. But the diploma will not hold their position for them. They must make their way on their marries.

INQUIRY SUBJECT
The United States Senate has voted an inquiry to ascertain definitely whether or not there is ground for the charges, often made, that disabled veterans of the World War are neglected in the hospitals where they are quartered and are receiving treatment. Senator Walsh of Massachusetts, who has made inquiries, avers that there is neglectful treatment of these unfortunate patriots.
Any neglect of this nature most assuredly should be remedied without delay. Should it be found that anyone, whatever his position, willfully has mistreated or neglected these disabled veterans, such person or persons should be punished therefor. The nation is under obligation of peculiar sacredness toward these valiant men. This obligation never should be forgotten or ignored.
BEST FOR PHILIPPINES IS UNCLE SAM'S AIM
Sentiment of the Filipinos as to independence is hard to ascertain with certainty. It is fortunate that a man of General Wood's caliber is chief of the mission to learn the feelings of the Filipinos and their fitness for self-rule. He not only understands the peoples of that island group, but is peculiarly well fitted, by experience and observation and by soundness and clarity of judgment, to appraise the situation.
The United States has given its solemn word to the islanders. They are promised full autonomy. The United States, for wise and obvious reasons, retains the right to decide when the time and conditions are ripe for vesting the Filipinos with

GREAT 1924 CONVENTION FOR CALIFORNIA
That’s very encouraging news that comes from the East to the effect that California has bright prospects for getting the Republican national convention in 1924. San Francisco did so famously, last year, in entertaining the Democratic convention, that it is the coast city which is most favored, although Los Angeles enter the contest, it no doubt would be very popular. However, it would be a grievous tactical mistake for two California cities to seek the convention the same year. Should it be deemed best for San Francisco to try for the great assemblage of Republicans, Los Angeles and other cities of the state should give cordial support. The coming of either of the great conventions to any city in this state is of material advantage to the whole commonwealth, as was demonstrated last year.
In due time, enterprising California Democrats may launch a movement to bring the 1924 Democratic national convention to California. There is nothing like being alert and aggressive in these things. By persistently seeking big conventions, California will get them. And the more of them this state gets, the easier it will be to induce others to come.
RED CROSS IN CHARGE AT PUEBLO NOW
Pueblo’s rehabilitation will be affected quickly, honestly, conscientiously and competently. This is assured by the fact that the relief of distress and the rebuilding of the stricken city are under direction of the American Red Cross disaster relief administration. The work to be supervised by the Red Cross includes the reconstruction of wrecked homes, the restoration of the business and industrial sections devastated by water, and the administration of relief throughout the flooded district. Formal announcement is to the ef-
The Village Gossip
Fred Ross, sales manager for Brown and Bowles, Studebaker dealers has just received another letter from Sydmier Röf, of Fullerton, the Studebaker enthusiast who has been touring Africa and who is now in Europe.
Ross writes that he has finished his trip in North Africa and crossed from Algiers to Marseilles. During his stay in Africa, they crossed Mozocco twice, and stopped for two nights in Ondja, Taza Fez, Rabat, Casablanca and Morocco City.
After staying a week in Paris, a trip was made to the battlefields of France.
“We made a run of 1500 miles through the battlefields of France and Belgium,” said Sydmier Ross. “We visited the great American cemetery at Romagne-Montfaucon at which place are buried the bodies of 21,000 Americans. It has a splendid location and is beautifully kept. In fact we found all cemeteries where Americans are buried well located and looked after.
“We visited Bapaume, where we stopped overnight in touring Europe in 1914. There is not a building standing that was there on our former trip.
“We reached London one Sunday, after having made more than 17,800 miles in the Big Six without any breakage or replacement. Of parts. The car was running splendidly, but we thought it best to take it to the Studebaker shop and have it thoroughly cleaned and adjusted. We will leave here in a few days to finish our trip in Great Britain, of which we have some 4,000 miles yet to do.
“We will go north to Scotland as far as John O’Groat’s, going from here on the east side and returning by the west through Wales to London. From there we will ship the car to America.
“我们 are considering driving the car from New York across the continent to California, but have not us yet decided upon this. We had intended to visit Ireland, but the military authorities are permitting touring only in some portions of Ulster, so we have abandoned the plan.”
Agnes Gilson, was awarded $2000 damages in a suit against a hair dresser because he burned her scalp white he was wearing her half.
Perhaps the most enterprising boot-black in the world frequents Park row and startles customers by this jerk. “Two cents!” Two cents! Many curious stops to ask him what he means by this reasonable-sounding request of the world and are informed that for two cents he will brush their shoes up, for five cents he will give them a “pretty good shine,” and for a dime make them gilsten like a hall of mirrors.
There have been a good many stories of undisturbed calm on the part of actors when it took courage and good nerves to be calm; but not often has a whole company shown the control that was displayed during a performance of “Sally” the other night. While the last scene was being played the firemen were fighting dames in a property room, and the entire company was slopping through water half an inch deep to reach the stage and their dressing rooms. The audience sat in ignorance of the drama behind the scene.
New York hotel men are beginning to wipe the cold perspiration fromtheim foreheads and prepare for one ofthe most strenuous months of their careers. For every day they are getting letters and wires for reservations for July 1 and 2, and with practically no exceptions, are the words, “and two or four” ring side seats for the fight.” The men of the entire country are expecting the attention to that little detail as a part of the hotel service, and the hotel are accepting the obligation.
Two hundred and fifty-two million people entered or left New York City on the steam railroads last year. That brings an understanding of why it is when we stop to ask pedestrian for directions anywhere in the city, we always expect—and as most always get—the reply, “I don’t know. I’m a stranger here.” It also may explain a lot of other things about our fair city, for which we are reproached by other sections of our land.
A good prospect is held out for particularly well-written drama to be produced by some of the new motion picture companies, just recently.
Pueblo's rehabilitation will be affected quickly, honestly, conscientiously and competently. This is assured by the fact that the relief of distress and the rebuilding of the stricken city are under direction of the American Red Cross disaster relief administration. The work to be supervised by the Red Cross includes the reconstruction of wrecked homes, the restoration of the business and industrial sections devastated by water, and the administration of relief throughout the flooded district. Formal announcement is to the effect that "the American Red Cross has accepted the entire responsibility for direction of city-wide reconstruction and rehabilitation in Pueblo and will be in sole direction of every phase of the work with no restriction in scope; reconstruction will be limited only to the financial assistance that may be given."
The American Red Cross assumes this big work with the full confidence of the people of the stricken district and the people of the whole United States. Honesty will mark every transaction. There will be no waste or extravagance. There will be no big overhead expense. Those who contribute toward Pueblo's relief—and more contributions are needed—will have the satisfaction of knowing that the funds given will go promptly and will be expended honestly, wisely and well.

NEW YORK, June 13.—Anyone who looks upon New York, as a cold, mind-your own-business city, should talk to Lucinda Flynn, of "Life." No one can tell the story like Miss Flynn, but it's pretty good even at second-hand. She was lunching at a popular tea-room the other day, when a brisk, commanding woman took the seat opposite her. "What is that you are eating?" crispy she asked. "Cheese souffle," murmured Miss Flynn. Is it good? "No, It's cold and the cheese is too strong." "Really?" exclaimed the woman. "And I notice you have eaten soup. You shouldn't do that at luncheon. It's really quite bad for you." Miss Flynn murmured again—to the effect that she liked soup at lunch. "You seem an interesting sort of person," said the so-called one. "Do you mind if I look at you thru my glasses?" "Not at all!" replied the by-this-time-subdued Miss Flynn. Wouldn't you like to join my luncheon club? the next startling query. "There are just 12, but one of the members died and I should like to have you fill the vacancy." "Oh, I'm sorry, but I'm not a club-poining person at all, I'm too busy, too, I'm sorry," apologized the members of Life's stuff. "That quite all right. Any number of people are anxious to join it. Do you ever parade? Wouldn't you like to march in my parade? By the way what is your name?" "Lucinda Flynn," she said meekly. "And may I ask what is yours," thinking she would like to do something except answering the catechism. "Oh! Really! Don't you know me?" exclaimed the catechising woman. "I'm Mrs. John——." Well, I won't tell it, but it was an exceedingly well known name in New York club circles. "Will you join our parade?" Again Miss Flynn had to murmur regretful declination and fled before any more questions or exclamations could be forthcoming.
If you were really going to steal anyway, wouldn't you choose the best thing of its kind lying around loose and unguarded? I wonder why people compromise so often by stealing mildly, as it were. For instance, yesterday 16 automobiles were stolen in this city and nine of the 16 were of the sort known flippantly as "flivvers."
A good prospect is held out for particularly well-written drama to be produced by some of the new motion picture companies, just recently organized. "The Cave Girl," a clever comedy by George Middleton and Guy Bolton, which made a hit in New York on the speaking stage a season or two ago, has been purchased to the Inspiration Pictures, one of the new organizations, and will be produced with Teddy Gerard heading the cast.
Among the 270 applications received to date for the citizens' military training camp to be held in Pittsburg this summer, is that Dr. Louis L. Seaman, of this city, years old, a veteran of eight wars and an officer in all of them, would almost seem to the casual thinker that Dr. Seaman might have had his share of the worst fighting, but not at all. His letter of application sets forth his need for additional training in infantry drills in order to fit him for a maximum degree of service in the event of another national emergency.
Plattsburg rules set the age at 16:35, but an effort will be made...
If you were really going to steal anyway, wouldn't you choose the best thing of its kind lying around loose and unguarded? I wonder why people compromise so often by stealing—mildly, as it were. For instance, Yesterday 16 automobiles were stolen in this city and nine of the 16 were of the sort known flippantly as "flivvers." I don't approve of stealing autos, of course, and anyway "flivvers" are perfectly good cars, but if they were going to steal anyway—I have seen such good looking, luxurious ones scattered about our streets.
Eleanor Painter, now starring in the new production, "The Last Waltz" by Oscar Strauss, is planning an early return to grand opera. When she was in that rare atmosphere before, she was comparatively unimportant in the overwhelming surroundings. But her musical comedy experience—and her success in it—has given her just the training necessary, she believes, for the climbing of that more aspiring ladder. Last season, Miss Painter was in the role of Dolores in the revival of "Flora Dora." "But there's nothing in light opera to compare with Stauss for grand operation preparation," she says.
Among the passengers landing from one of the big liners the other day were an ex-secretary of state, a movie "vamp," and an ex-champion bantam-weight prize fighter. Of the three, Johnny Coulon, ex-pugillist, was the center of the greatest throng of onlookers. Because Johnny it was who had all Europe forgetting its territorial tangles last winter in trying to solve the inability of strong men to life him from his feet when he decided not to be lifted. You remember? Everything from black magic to the laws of relativity were brought forward as a possible explanation. But they never did really get it. And Johnny was keeping pretty quiet about his secret during the volley of questions at the dock.

He served first in the Sanish-American War, then in the Boer War, the Philippine trouble, the Boxer-rebellion; the Russo-Japanese War, the Herroro War in German East Africa, the Dutch War on the side of the Serbians, and finally in the World War.
Thirty-seven nationalities are represented on the staff of one of the big hotels of this city.
Prohibitionized New York is turning to coffee houses. It never was possible to get men into tea-rooms with anything except an amount of pressure that rather detracted from the spontaneity of the visit. And as for dropping in by themselves—woll, it simply wasn't done by the average sort of man. For some reason "coffee house" strikes him entirely different; whether because of its traditions dating back to a century or so ago in England, or whether the aroma of coffee gives a more masculine atmosphere than the fainter fragrance of tea, I am sure I don't know. But the Times Square section, which used to be the center of the city's gathering about the festive gin rickey in the old days, is now thickly sprinkled with coffee houses, and the coffee houses are much more than thickly sprinkled with patrons at almost any nour or the day.
The oneness of Americans in spirit it is illustrated in their quick responsiveness to such appeals for help as come from Pueblo. There is no dissension, no controversy, no stopping to argue the question. Maine folks, Iowa folks and Californians all are impelled by the same impulse at the same time, to give, and that liberally. Just as, when the Nation is assailed from abroad, all true Americans, with singleness of feeling and purpose, rush to the national defense. This is a phase of American national development that is sublime.
