What is it? It is to bear the miseries of people; To hear their murmurs, feel their discontents, And sink beneath a load of splendid care! —Hannah More. Help put the "merry" in America. Be a dispenser of optimism, smiles and good cheer. The way to retrench is not to increase expenditures on an income already strained to the utmost to keep up with putgo. Premier Lloyd George does not find time hanging heavy on his hands. Both his friends and his enemies contribute toward keeping him busy. The sense of modesty and propriety inherent in the masses of womankind may be depended upon to bring fashion, ultimately, within unquestionable limits. President Harding has said that he is for retrenchment. And what he has plied as to this he is striving to accomplish. The people are taking cognizance of this and appreciate it. If the foreign delegates to the disarmament conference should attend the movies, after coming to Washington, they may start a movement to disarm Bill Hart, Tom Mix, Harry Carey and other two-gun Westerners of the screen. Toward the Russian people, the government and people of the United States have cogent reasons to feel friendly. This friendly, sympathetic feeling is to be manifested concretely in the leading of multitudes of the starving victims of famine in that distressed land. But even Babe Ruth, within a comparatively short time, will go into a battling slump and into eclipse. This is the penalty of baseball fame. The most brilliant career soon comes to end. Few men do much of note on the diamond after they have passed their fortieth year. The steamship Alaska, wreckedrable results would be obtained in this country by merging the two departments is the conviction of experts, and particularly strong is President Harding's belief in the efficacy and the wisdom of the proposed move. TAXATION MEASURE IS TO BE PUSHED Revision of federal taxation is to be expedited in congress if leaders of the senate and house have their way. The Fordney tariff bill is to be sidetracked in the senate, if present plans are consummated and the tax measure is to be pressed vigorously. Leaders hope to have the measure complete and enacted by both houses before the first of November. It is realized, however, that there will be much debate, and this may take bitter form and there may be filibustering or other methods of delay. As to the amendments and the changes that may be made by the senate, or in conference after the senate has acted, there is no means of foretelling. In truth, the whole measure may be overhauled before it comes to final enactment. Meantime the sentiment of the people will be impressed upon official Washington. If there be objectionable provisions in the measure as it stands or should obnoxious amendments be proposed, the protest of the public no doubt will be registered unmistakably. For the people feel strongly upon this subject of tax revision. They want genuine and substantial relief from tax burdens. If congress does not give the aid that is yearned for, there will be a wave of disapprobation from the masses. WOMEN TO PROMOTE DISARMMENT PLAN Of great interest is the announcement that a worldwide demonstration in favor of disarmament will be made by women of all nations on Armistice Day, Nov. 11, on which date the disarmament conference opens in Washington. This may develop into one of the most impressively dreadful results would be obtained in this country by merging the two departments is the conviction of experts, and particularly strong is President Harding's belief in the efficacy and the wisdom of the proposed move.

The most brilliant career soon comes to and few men do much of note on the diamond after they have passed their fortileth year. The steamship Alaska, wrecked recently off the coast near Eureka, was manned by a crew not up to the traditions of the sea for chivalry and heroism. Evidence shows that they were exercably indifferent in the work of rescuing imperiled passengers. Conduct of this kind is rare on the seas, and is abominated by every true sailor. The United States is firmly resolved not to have the Panama Canal surrounded with and jeopardized by armed quarrels between the republic of Panama and its neighbors. This country will end its good offices to the clearing up of differences between Central American republics and will use its influence and power to promote justice, fair play and peace down there. Some playwrights take absurd liberties with real life. The manner in which the plot to its climax, with the hero and heroine coming into their own and the villian duly worsted, is not at all convincing. To make these things run parallel with human experience and to grip the interest of those who know life as it is, is the test of the masterfulness of playwriting. Few pass this test. California is a Paradise for artists. There are endless varieties of landscapes and bits of scenery. Mother Nature is a perennial model here for the artist, revealing herself in her most fetching moods, from gay to grave, from simple beauty to grandeur and sublimity. That the charms of this state are appreciated in this is evidenced by the number of great artists who come here and do much of their work here. UNCLE SAM IS NOT BUILLY WITH NEIGHBORS The U. S. government, in dispatching troops to the disputed strip of territory between Panama and Costa Rica, is not laying the groundwork for conquest. It has no ulterior motives. It has no intention of being brutal or bullying. It will not overrun, seize and permanently hold a foot of territory belonging to any republic of Latin America. It should not be necessary to reassure the southern republics on this score. But so scrupulously careful is the government at Washington not to offend the sensibilities or to arouse the suspicions or prejudices of its neighbor republics, assurances of the friendly purposes and the good WOMEN TO PROMOTE DISARMA-MENT PLAN Of great interest is the announcement that a worldwide demonstration in favor of disarmament will be made by women of all nations on Armistice Day, Nov. 11, on which date the disarmament conference opens in Washington. This may develop into one of the most impressive and significant sentiment moves for the promotion of peace that the world will have experienced. Women have greater power and greater influence over governments today than ever before. In the U. S. and in the more advanced countries overseas women have the ballot and citizenship status. When women speak today, they speak not alone with the force of proper sentiment, but with the authority of the voting citizen. Women are for just peace. They are impelled to favor peace by stronger promptings than come to the breasts of men. Their demonstrating in behalf of the disarmament movement should strengthen the purpose of the delegations that will sit about the conference table in Washington. GARDEN GROVE, Sept. 1.—Miller Dungan had his tonsils removed at the local hospital Tuesday. He is getting along nicely. Mrs. Dessa Emerson and daughter Miss Thelma spent Tuesday at Long Beach. Roy Harvey and family and Mr. and Mrs. J. Durkett, of Long Beach, were Sunday guests at the J. A. Bodehelmer home.

Violett and daughter, Miss Ruth, went to Redlands Tuesday, where they attended the wedding of one of the latter's school friends. Mr. and Mrs. C. S Holt and daughter, Miss Lova, Mr. and Mrs. Emmett Smith, Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Smith and Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Morrill attended the Brown evangelistic meetings in Los Angeles Sunday evening. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph French and baby returned Monday from a week's visit with Mr. and Mrs Delbert Preston at San Diego. Mr. and Mrs. O. H. Fulwider and children spent Sunday with relatives in Fullerton. ORANGETHORPE, Sept. 1.(Spl) or territory between Panama and Costa Rica, is not laying the groundwork for conquest. It has no anterior motives. It has no intention of being brutal or bullying. It will not overrun, seize and permanently hold a foot of territory belonging to any republic of Latin America. It should not be necessary to reassure the southern republics on this score. But so scrupulously careful is the government at Washington not to offend the sensibilities or to arouse the suspicions or prejudices of its neighbor republics, assurances of the friendly purposes and the good faith of this government are given at every turn of developments that involve the use of even a showing of force. The controversy between Panama and Costa Rica is an aggravated one. If it were not settled once for all it would be a fruitful cause of recurring armed clashes between the two countries. This would endanger the Panama Canal zone and create a condition of turmoil and peril and needless bloodshed and destruction which the U.S., in justice to its own interests and to the welfare of the countries concerned, could not tolerate. ARMY AND NAVY MAY BE IN ONE DEPARTMENT Merging of the army and navy departments of the U.S. government into one department, to have charge of affairs both of the army and the navy, is a probability. Washington news dispatches strongly indicate President Harding strongly fayors this, it is said. The effect would be wholly beneficial, it is believed. It would bring about economies totaling millions annually, by eradicating duplication of effort and by putting all operations of the consolidated department upon a business basis. There is no need of two departments. The general results of having the two are seen in waste of funds, much futility of effort, lack of coordination and of cooperation between the departments and breeding of smobbishness. There should be none of this. Great Britain demonstrated, in the heat of the world war, that putting army and navy under the direction of one departmental head increased greatly the efficiency of both services. That the same desir...

The Village Gossip The distinction of being passengers in the first car out of Fairbanks to cross the newly completed Richardson highway and make the five-day journey to Valdes, rests on two Santa Anans, Miss Jennie Lasby and Miss Josephine Arnoldy, of the Santa Ana Junior college and high school faculties, who, this summer, inaded the Alaska gold fields and returned, laden with treasure trove in the way of impressions and experiences. Leaving Santa Ana early in June, these most modern Argonauts went directly to the dreamed of territory with the intention of seeing as much of Alaska as was humanly possible in the brief summer season. Their first stop was made at the coast town of Ketchikan, from which point they went to Wrangel and there made their first acquaintance with the strange Indian relicles and the Totem poles of the original settlers. These primitive family trees they found as interesting and weird as their liveliest fancies had painted them. At Juneau they visited the Alaska gold mine and at Skagway they took the White Pass railroad which as closely as possible parallels the miners' trail of '97. Through the terrible Chilkoot pass and the historic "White Horse" they passed and at the latter point, took a river boat and went 1500 miles up the Yukon to Dawson, where they followed up the Klondike creek to the famous Bonanza mine. The wonders of the midnight sun were curtailed by 30 minutes, as the party reached Dawson just a little too late for the full effect of a sunshine night, but since his Majesty remained below the horizon for only 30 minutes, neither Miss Lasby nor Miss Arnoldy felt cheated out of the experience. "The facts of the case are that we scarcely slept at all the first week," declared Miss Lasby in her account of the trip,"and a 30 minutes' twilight was quite acceptable." At Tanana, the party left the Klondike river and pursued their way up Tanana river to Fairbanks where they visited the famous gardens interpret to America the remarkable progress made by Denmark in scientific agriculture, education and politics.
