DAILY GREETING TO OUR READERS The soul, secure in her existence, mutes At the drawn danger, and defied its point, The state shall fade away, the sun himself Grew dim with age, and nature slink in years; But then shall flourish in immortal youth, Uncharted amidst the war of elements, The wrick of matter, and the result of worldliness—Addison. MR. HOOVER IS SOUND IN HIS ADVICE Herbert C. Hoover discusses economic conditions in the United States and abroad with pronounced trenchancy. Speaking before the National Shoe and Leather Exposition, in Boston, the Secretary of Commerce said that the recovery from economic depression in this country, as well as overseas, depends upon "courage and applied intelligence," and the return to primary virtues of hard, conscientious toll and economy of living." Mr. Hoover said other things. But these few words are an epitome of one of the best discourses upon effectual remedying of economic ills that has been delivered. The American people and other peoples must be intelligently bold in grappling with economic difficulties, if these obstacles to normality are to be overcome. And there must be a general turning to and exemplification of the cardinal virtues of honest industriousness and sensible saving, in the daily life of the nation. There is no substitute "just as good" as hard work and judicious economizing. These are the foundations of prosperity. Without them the country cannot thrive. With them the country can come thru and every economic crisis. Mr. Hoover has given his countrymen a splendid formula, in few words, for bringing back the economic normal. California had a record-breaking number of marriages in June. That ancient illusion — "two can live as cheaply as one" — may have had something to do with it. Where many tourists from Latin America could be induced to come to California if persistent, actful attempts were made to bring there. It would be worth while, too, to have them come and to make warm friendship with them. It is to be hoped that General Wood can be prevailed upon by President Harding to accept the post of governor-general of the Philippines. He is eminently fitted for the post and this country would be fortunate in having a man of his caliber at Manila. President Harding has the key to the hearts of boys. He has the happy faculty of meeting boys on their own ground, feeling and seeing things as they do, and having sympathetic understanding of them. Not every man can or will do this. Those who do win the confidence of boys. Excessive freight rates are the chief cause of industrial depression, it is said. The excessiveness should be wrung out of the freights. Easier said than done, it is true. But it can be done, and must be done, before the nation's industries can revive and flourish as they should. “If I had my life to live over I would not change my profession,” said President Harding to a group of newspaper publishers. Few newspaper men who love the work would change, if they could. It is an exciting profession, and its paths are not easy, but there is a fascination about it that grips and inspires those who have been long in journalism and who are devoted to it. California growers are seeking adequate tariff protection for walnuts and almonds. All Californians should stand together to obtain ample encouragement, thus protective duties, for all products of this state. When productive industries prosper, the whole state shares in the prosperity. There is a community of interests which should impel all Californians, even if from no other than selfish considerations, to back movements for the promotion of the various industries of the state.

Mr. Hoover has given his countrymen a splendid formula, in few words, for bringing back the economic normal. California had a record-breaking number of marriages in June. That ancient illusion — "two can live as cheaply as one" — may have had something to do with it. Where there is true love and harmonious mating, the will to get on usually finds a way. There was a time when the manufacturing of political capital by elders leaders, in and out of congress, was accepted rather blindly and in good faith, by their respective partisan adherents. But the development of the newspaper press, the universal dissemination of political news and the higher levels of intelligence reached by the masses, have made apparent to the people the tricks and devices to which politicians resort to make party capital. The people weary of these things. Politicians would display more wisdom if they abandoned these archaic methods and if they were more honest and ingenious with the people. The masses quickly perceive. They know the difference between real, earnest, honest, statesmanship and rank demogogery. The Village Gossip Many human persons object to the small pen in which the baby alligator at the Orange-co park is kept, since this permits children to tease and torture it. The children poke it with nicks and other things to hear it hiss. This cruelty could be avoided. It was stated, by enlarging the pen and giving the alligator room to get out of reach of its tormentors. A fresh oak has been produced by C. A. Riggs of Santa Ana. The oak now four or five years old, stands in the parking in front of the Riggs home at the northeast corner of Spurgeon and 9th-ats. Some years ago another oak stood where the freak now is. This tree was cut down. From the stump, perhaps two feet across, a number of sprouts came. When these sprouts were grown three or four feet high Riggs twisted them together and bound them. They are now grown together. At the foot of the trunk are four small trunks, united into one about two feet above the ground. In the Riggs yard is a fine large oak. This tree was brot down from the nearby mountains many years ago by Henry R. Bristol, who planted it where the big tree now stands. Sunday County Auditor W. C. Jer- Things Worth Knowing About Orange County For 15 miles Santiago canyon reaches into the Santa Ana mountains, with its sides more rugged and more picturesque, and to the eyes of some more fascinating the further one goes. Finally one comes to the ends of the roads, and from there trails may be taken into fastnesses higher up. At the end of one of the roads is located the mountain home of Madame Modjeska, the place where the famous tragedienne lived for many years. Another mountain retreat that is proving the mecca of many hundreds of people every week is that maintained by the county and the United States forest service. It lies in Trabuco canyon, by many declared to be the most beautiful canyon in Southern California. There camping grounds and cabin sites have been laid out by the government. From this canyon, as well as from Santiago are trails leading to the top of the Santa Ana range. A favorite objective is the top of Santiago peak, where the forest service has established a ranger's lookout station. From this peak one gets one of the most wonderful views to be had in all Southern California, for one has a view for scores of miles in direction. California growers are seeking adequate tariff protection for walnuts and almonds. All Californians should stand together to obtain ample encouragement, thus protective duties, for all products of this state. When productive industries prosper, the whole state shares in the prosperity. There is a community of interests which should impel all Californians, even if from no other than selfish considerations, to back movements for the promotion of the various industries of the state. It manifestly is disheartening for California growers of fruits and vegetables, after producing crops, to be confronted with railroad freight rates so high that no profit can be made from their produce. In many instances they suffer actual losses if they harvest their crops and send them to market. This is so flagrantly inequitable that relief should be demanded strongly and persistently. The Pilgrim Fathers, landing on the bleak shores of New England 300 years ago, set in motion influences that have been and are felt beneficiently all over this land. With all the sneering at Puritanism, it is a savoring which influences the national character to the glory of the nation. Rugged honesty, unimpeachable virtue and intense patriotism and devotion to free institutions — these Puritan influences have been and are historic and worthy the pride of the American people.

Jerome packed around two monster diamond rings, salvaged from a wreck at Laguna Beach. It wasn't a shipwreck, merely a case of an automobile coming into contact with a board walk. W. Polkinghorn of Los Angeles and a party of friends arrived from Los Angeles. They were soon in the surf. Their Franklin car was left on the county road next to the Laguna Beach hotel. The brakes were not set and the machine was out of gear. Suddenly, without reason or warning, the empty automobile started rolling, and serenely, it kept on rolling for about 50 feet until it plunged off the edge of the declivity. The right front fender and the hood of the machine were jammed under the corner of the sidewalk built above the sand in front of the cottage owned by Mrs. W. H. Spurgeon of Santa Ana. Among those who examined the wreck were T. E. Stephenson and W. C. Jerome. Two great big sparklers were seen sparkling manfully on the floor of the machine. Before going into the surf, the owners had hidden the rings in a recess of the machine; the rings had been tumbled out onto the floor by the jar against the sidewalk. Jerome took the diamonds into his case and kept them until the owner arrived. The owners tried to re-hit, but failed in their effort. Down power and manpower, the machine was backed up upon the H. Spurgeon got a hammer put in a new corner otherwise repaired the dam-sidewalk. Polkinghorn for the damage, but he could walk needed anyhow and there was no damage. GROVE SOPHOMORES TO ATTEND S. A. H. S. Sophomores of the Garden Grove school district may attend Santa Ana high school this year. This was the order promulgated today by the Santa Ana board of education, pursuant to a decision reached at a meeting. The action was taken as a courtesy to Garden Grove and to relieve that district of the necessity to prepare school facilities for freshmen and sophomores by the opening of the fall term. It is understood that Garden Grove can accommodate the freshmen without embarrassment. The board has assumed the obligation of paying the expense of maintaining a teacher for devoting half time to the instruction of Mexican mothers in home work. Since this service was instituted the Daughters of Veterans have been paying the salary of the instructor. NEW ALTITUDE RECORD PARIS, July 18. — A new world altitude record stands today.

According to details of the run brot to Anaheim by W. E. Alexander Jr., president of the Alexander Motor Car Co., the Packard Six made a decidedly remarkable showing for a car of its size. "The Single Six averaged over 20 miles to the gallon for the 266-mile run and showed no visible oil consumption at all when the crankcase was drained at the end of the run," said Alexander. "It carried five passengers and considerable luggage, and the route included a climb to a 7800-foot summit." "The rules of the contest forade declutching or running with the ignition shut off, so the records set by the various cars were a fair sample of normal running. A strong head wind blew for many hours as the cars were returning to Sacramento, and none of the cars which were entered last year showed as good an economy record this year, owing to the weather conditions. "For the Packard to show better than a 20-mile average on gasoline under these conditions we consider a very good showing. It is especially satisfactory to us because we have many owners who are getting equally as good mileage on long country runs." OLDS FOUR PULLS DOZEN UP INCLINE A Detroit automobile dealer, anxious to do something worth while and not having the necessary hills at hand, staged a stunt recently that gave the Los Angeles representative of the same automobile an idea going the Detroiter one better.

De Vaux, local oldmobile New Zealanders Given Thrill in Aero-light In far off New Zealand, Cole Aero-Eight has earned a reputation for performance equally as impressive as its standing among the really fine cars in America. Edgar H. Garland of New Zealand, ordered two Cole Aero-Eights. Compared by a well known French driver, Mr. Garland went to Christchurch of the South Island to get the cars. Thoroughly impressed with the appearance of the new cars, Mr. Garland decided to immediately try them out for performance. In company with the French driver he carried out a hill climbing contest. One of New Zealand's most difficult hills, seven miles long, was attempted. The Cole negotiated the entire distance on high gear, establishing a record that immediately started New Zealanders talking. It was the first car to successfully negotiate this hill on high gear. Even more remarkable in view of the 80-horse power engine under the hood of the Cole was the gasoline consumption test staged a few hours later. After draining every drop of gasoline from the tank, carburetor and pipe, a one-gallon tank filled with a measured gallon of gasoline, was fitted over the engine. The Cole Aero-Eight started and was driven ahead until it stopped from the exhaustion of fuel. The distance covered was exactly 17 miles. W. O. Lusk, 111 North Lemon-st. Anaheim, is the Orange county dealer for the Cole. CLEVELAND SUCCESS DUE TO EXPERIMENT When a new factory can make more than 300 cars and place them in the hands of owners to be run for a couple of years partly as an experiment, that factory has a decided advantage when it finally introduces its car. All mechanical defects can thus be eradicated, and all necessary improvements made. R. C. Goodcell, manager of the sport model airplane has really taken its place along with the sport model auto in the activities of our daily life. People have become so accustomed to the hum of the motors far above their heads that they no longer crane their necks every time a plane passes overhead. The airplane has come to be a part of our life just as the auto did some years ago and now the two vie with one another as aids to business and pleasure. Out at the Los Angeles Speedway today representative craft from all over the world will battle in the air for speed and handling honors. One of the most beautiful craft to compete in the events today will be the new model C-1 Pacific Standard racing monoplane, built right in Los Angeles by the Pacific Airplane & Supply Co., and which will be piloted by Emery H. Rogers, famous up and down the Pacific coast before the war as a tennis expert or note, but now an expert on all aeronautica and perhaps better known now as an aviator than he was then for his athletic ability. Mr. May, of the May Motor Co. OLDS FOUR POLLS DOZEN UP INCLINE A Detroit automobile dealer, anxious to do something worth while and not having the necessary hills at hand, staged a stunt recently that gave the Los Angeles representative of the same automobile an idea going the Detroitter one better. In the eastern city hills are scarce and the dealer, having seen pictures according to H. S. Gillinette, manager for J. J. De Vaux, local oldmobile distributor, of what had been done here on the Pacific coast to prove the power of the Oldsmobile "Four" piled a total of 24 passengers on his car and drove it up a very slight grade. Sales Manager Clair R. Savage of the Los Angeles J. W. Leavitt house does not like to copy other people's ideas so he decided to try out the "Four" on W. Sixth-st. with a big load. The grade from Figueroa street to Loomis street is steep for any car but while the majority have little or no difficulty in making the hill on high it is a good, hard climb nevertheless. When the sharp turn to the right on Loomis street is made, however, the grade looms up as a rather tough proposition, especially with the sharp, right-angle turn figured in. Savage loaded a dozen of his salesmen in the little "Four" and made the summit, including the short turn without the slightest trouble. Encouraged by the wonderful performance on such a severe test, but with all his spare salesmen used up, Savage hailed a couple of workmen on their way to work and pressed them into service. Again the little "Four" rolled up Sixth, across Figueroa, up and up to the Loomis street turn, and then still on upward without a falter. "Well," said Savage, "I'm all out of men now and I can do not more. But I am confident the "Four can better its mark by several more passengers, and we'll try it again some time." S. A. LEGION PICKS YOSEMITE DELEGATES Interest among the Legionnaires of Santa Ana was today divided between the plans for attending the state convention of the American Legion, Aug. 22 to 25, at the Yosemite, and the plan for staging a carnival in this city during Armistice week in November. Both questions were thoroughly discussed at last night's meeting of the members at the armory. Many of the Legion men expressed determination to attend the convention and 12 delegates were appointed to represent the local legion. Those decided upon were Wilbur Getty, Dr. John Wehrley, J. A. Hill, Major M. B., Wellington, Benton Blee, Royce W. Lantz, Walter Gerkin, Warren Hillyard, Ernest Winbigler, Hal C. Ritter, G. K.

All mechanical defects can thus be eradicated, and all necessary improvements made. R. C. Goodcell, manager of the Chandler and Cleveland service station in Anaheim, in remarking on the wonderful success of the Cleveland car, attributes much of it to the fact that this is exactly the experience of the Cleveland factory. The first cars built were turned out just prior to America's entry into the war. Immediately upon the declaration of war, the factory was converted for war work which continued until some time after the armistice was signed. However, the car was not forgotten and the 300 or more cars turned out were watched very closely. "When production was resumed after the war, the experience derived from the operation of these cars for nearly two years was the basis of the refinements and improvements made in the car. Consequently when the new Cleveland appeared it leaped into immediate favor, and very few refinements have been necessary in order to bring this car to its present mechanical excellence." H.

Orange-co distributors for the Nash states that it is interesting to note that like the Nash, the motor which drives it as well as practically all airplanes is of the valve-in-head type. In discussing the merits of the land and air craft with Mr. May the fact developed that the valve-inhead motor, such as those used in the Nash and also in the new monoplane has greater "breathing capaccity" than other types. This breathing capacity, or ability of the motetor to inhale most efficiently the live gases coming from the carburetor, and to expel the burnt gasfrom its cylinders, means more power with a given weight—in other words it means greater efficiency.
