DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS We live in deeds, not years—in thoughts, not breaths— In feelings, not in figures, on a dial: We should count time by heart throbs. He most lives, Who thinks most—feels the noblest, acts the best.—Bailey. As G. A. R. veterans assembled at Indianapolis for the national encampment, the country once more has opportunity to show what affectionate regard these gallant men are held. Wherever the veterans appear, they are cheered heartily. May Providence temper their latter days with happiness and peace. It is a sad commentary on the quality of American appreciation and gratitude, to contemplate hundreds of thousands of veterans of the World War out of work and in desperate straits and great numbers of disabled not properly cared for, although being promised help. High time to stop promising and to begin fulfilling. The unemployed of the great cities should be treated with tender consideration. Their plight is bad enough at best. They should not be embittered and humiliated by being treated as though they were lawless and to be ridden down and beaten by the police, should, they happen to assemble peaceably, to discuss unemployment conditions. The stress conditions which have racked the United States and the civilized world since 1914 have emphasized the vital value of co-operation in economic life. No class and no element in the Nation's population can live to itself any thrive by itself. Nationalism ever has produced MR. HARDING IS MAKING MOVES PUBLIC President Harding, thoroughgoing newspaper man that he is, is a consistent apostle of publicity. He is taking the people into his confidence. He is telling them what is being accomplished by his administration, and what is projected for accomplishment. The effect of this is decidedly wholesome upon the public mind. The people have come to have confidence in Mr. Harding. They have respect for his courage—and they have come to realize that he is courageous, and not spineless, as some professed to believe he would be in the Presidency. His tactfulness, the people see, is bearing fruit. Within the few months that he has been in the White House Mr. Harding has achieved considerable and has set Congress to doing the big works that should claim its attention. Furthermore, pursuant to his promises to the people when he was a candidate for the Presidency, Mr. Harding has called a momentous conference which there is good reason to hope, may bring about a compacting of nations to reduce armaments and to preserve just peace throughout the world. It is said, in news dispatches from Washington, that Republican party leaders are relying upon President Harding himself to do effective propaganda work for his party. Mr. Harding realizes, no doubt, that the most convincing propagandism for a political party is pledges fulfilled, or on the road to fulfillment. Hence his stressing of what his administration has done, is doing, and is planning to do. The United States treasury surplus is not in danger of suffering from embonpoint — no, not for a long, long time.

Cor New York Letter Either the Far East has slipped past the supposedly advanced west or else Miss Mi Lee of Shanghai China believes in living up to what she has read about us and our women in these parts. She has been stopping here for a few days on her way back to Shanghai from a visit in England and she rather surprised even Fifth-ave, when she went shopping. For her costume consisted of trousers and coat made of China silk and exactly the same as those worn by the men of China. It was not even "adapted" as New York girls do to the styles of men's knickers when they don them for sport wear. It was a Chinese man's outfit, plain and simple. Basil Sidney (husband of Doris Keane) will appear in the lead part of "The Lonely Heart" this season, the play written by Edward Shelton several years ago for John Barrymore, who for some reason, never acted it. Doris Keane herself will tour for a few months and then come back here in a new play, "The Czarina," by Melchoir Lengyel. Traffic at Columbus Circle was tied up for 15 minutes the other day, and Patrolman 7707 declares it was the only tieup since he joined the traffic squad that didn't leave everybody in a bad humor. A squirrel who ignored the rules against jay-walking did it. The squirrel darted out of Central Park and started across the Circle headed straight for the white lights of Broadway. Patrolman 7707 saw it and lunged but missed it. The adventuresome park fugitive darted under a glossy limousine leading a long procession of cars. The driver saw it and his heart refused to let him run it down. He stopped his own car and the procession had to follow suit. Regardless of the implications of those behind him he ing little animal had been caught under somebody's late straw hat, while an almost hysterical crowd gathered and tried to render assistance. Finally the squirrel was restored to the park, the chauffeurs breathed free once more and traffic moved. The proprietor of a shop on upper Broadway specializing in semi-precious (to speak gently) jewelry and all manner of "luck" charms, has his own ideas as to what constitutes prominence and importance. Over a trayful of brass trinkets bearing a cabalistic letter he has placed a sign "Lucky Mazuka. Worn by prominent and prosperous people — bankers, brokers, bookmakers, crap shooters, lawyers, gamblers and waiters." A novel and interesting sight-seeing trip was taken over in Newark the other day when detectives took young Leonard Hoffman, 19 years old, on a tour of the city while he pointed out to them the various places he had robbed. There were 15 garages, private houses, grocery stores, and other incidental buildings on the list. Young Hoffman had been undisturbed in his career until two detectives saw him arrest. They asked him what he did with it. "I'm a burglar," the boy said calmly. "I live at home with my mother and father but I never work." "How much of a burglar are you?" they inquired. "Well," he replied proudly. "I've robbed at least 80 places since I began eight months or so ago. I'm a sharpshooter with a revolver, too. I shot a guy about three months ago." "Launcelot and Elaine," a romantic drama in which the poesy and the language of Tennyson's "Idyls of the King" have been closely followed, has just opened at the Greenwich Village Theater. It is produced by the new Playwright and Players company and is quite gorgeously put on. Gerald Rogers, Pedro Rossi Cordoba, and Selena and Josephine Royle have the leading parts. The two latter are daughters of Edward Milton Royle, whose dramatization it is. There is lovely incidental work for his party. Mr. Harding realizes no doubt, that the most convincing propagandism for a political party is pledges fulfilled, or on the road to fulfillment. Hence his stressing of what his administration has done, is doing, and is planning to do. The United States treasury surplus is not in danger of suffering from embonpoint — no, not for a long, long time. A great deal of the best brain and new this country ever has produced has been fed on corn bread.

THE LOS ANGELES POWER GRAB THE LOS ANGELES MENACE (Editorial from Visalia Delta, Tulare County, July 16, 1921). The people of this state residing in territory tributary to the power sites which Los Angeles is attempting to annury, are becoming alarmed at the danger which threatens them from the municipal octopus. From a wonder city in whose wreat achievements and progress we hither to have taken pride, Los Angeles has developed into a menacing Frankenstein. The situation in a nutshell is this: Under present state law municipally owned and operated utilities are tax exempt and regulation exempt. They neither pay taxes for state support nor are they subject to state regulation by the railroad commission. This is not so serious where a municipally owned utility is operated solely for the benefit of the people living within the incorporated limits of a city, but when that city, taking advantage of its tax and regulation exemption, proceeds to develop power beyond its needs and to sell that power in contiguous territory, it creates an unbridled monopoly and indirectly taxes the land and the people at large for the support of such city. It is conceivable that a city like Los Angeles might make enough profit on its sales enterprises, along public utility lines, to create a tax-free municipality, which advantage would hamper the municipal aspirations of every competing city, large or small, within its sphere of influence. Its advantage would be reflected in business, and outside people, forced by monoply to buy power or water from Los Angeles, would be put in the position of contributing to a system by which their competitors in private business would escape taxation and therefore be able to undersell, and attract country business away from country business men. Furthermore, when a city, thus animated, goes out into the state and seeks to acquire and monopolize all the power and water sources for a radius of 300 miles, taking from under their noses the people's natural resources tributary to and belonging to them, for the sole purpose of monopolizing, and in time forcing us to pay toll to the municipal enterprise of Los Angeles for the privilege of using power and water rightfully ours, the menace assumes a proportion that cannot be tolerated and must be fought to a finish, right now before it succeeds in fastening its tenacles upon us for all time.

E. church was held Tuesday evening on the Olinda lease. A very pleasant evening was spent in a new way. First supper was served at 6:00 o'clock at the home of Mr. and Mrs. D. A. Little. Two long tables were spread in the living room which were both filled with plates for about fifty. Supper was served in regular family style. Every one helping themselves to everything except desert. Then everyone assembled to the Travers home where a report of the past years work and plans for next year was given. From there we were invited across the street to the Ernest Scribner home for the desert which everyone enjoyed very much. After which we returned to the Travers home where a social time was enjoyed. Everyone reports a good time and the committee felly paid for their effort. About 55 were present. Miss Hattie Conn attended the Junior college reception at the Placentia club house Friday evening. Mr. and Mrs. C. H. McHenry and family entertained Mr. and Mrs. Ed Hoffman, daughter, Miss Lou Dr., and Mrs. Critchlow, Miss Annie Hoffman all o Los Angeles, Sunday.

Mrs. and Mrs. Claud Pennywett and family and Mr. and Mrs. George Mismheimer of Inglewood, called on Mrs. Pennywett's and Mrs. Mismheimer's parents, Mr. and Mrs. Ola-Pock. Mrs. Myers of Annheim called on Mr. and Mrs. Lorin Robinson; Wednesday evening, bringing with her, watermelons, cantaloupes and corn to serve as evening's refreshments. This call was very appropriate, it being Mrs. Robinson's birthday, neighbors were invited in later in the evening of help eat the watermelon. Mrs. Agnes Emory who has been at the home of her son, Mr. R. M. Emory went to Owensmouth Sunday to stay with her daughter, Mrs. H. T. Lewis. Mrs. J. O. Conn stayed at the home DOUBLE EXPOSURES IN BIG PHOTOPLAY Several remarkable double exposures in which Courtenay Foote, in the dual role of Har Dyal Rutton, an Indian prince, and David Amber, an adventurous young American, enacts several highly dramatic scenes between the two characters, is a feature of "The Bronze Bell," the latest Paramount-Ince-Vance special picture production which will be presented for the last time tonight at the Fairyland. Although the dual characters are in evidence during but a short sequence of the drama, with such unusual care and attention to the minute details, were these scenes in which Foote as Rutton plays opposite Foote as Amber produced, that, two weeks were devoted to their filming. A drama based upon an attempted uprising of the natives of an East Indian principality which is prevented by the enterprise and darling of a young American adventurer, "The Bronze Bell" is said to be one of the most powerful cinema offerings of the season. PRETTY LUNCHEON PARTY St. Ann's Inn was the scene of a pretty luncheon yesterday when Mrs. R.G.Adams and Mrs.Walter Bond were hostesses to the Sans.Soucl Club. The decorations were arranged under the personal supervision of the hostesses and were purple astors and yellow marigolds and made a pretty setting for the delightful affair. After luncheon a short business session was held after which the afternoon was spent in playing "500." The highest score was made by Mrs.E.J.Marks; second by Mrs.Julia Carpenter, and the consolation went to Mrs.Townsend of Santa Ana. Other guests were Meadames Ray Warden of Placentia and J.E.Shepherd,DavisOrton,A.H.T.Osborne,E.J.BrownWelsh.Dauster,A.M.Dunlap Jr.Vorce and Salveston all of Fullerton. STATES TO OBSERVE ARMISTICE DAY NEW YORK, Sept. 29. — In every state, Armistice Day, Nov. 11, will be celebrated this year with a patriotic song service. The National Council of Women, of which Mrs.Phillip North Moore is president, established National Song Service as an annual affair five years ago, thru the initiative of Mrs.David A.Campbell, chairman of community singing. Mrs.William John Hall, of St.Louis, chairman of the Junior clubs of America, is arranging to have the program given in the schools of the country under the direct charge of the children themselves. The program drawn up by Mrs.Campbell, as chairman, which will be given uniformly at the services thrush; the country; is as follows: Orchestra—"American Fantasia"....Theo Bendix Invocation "Land of Mine"...Nesbit-MacDermid "Lead Kindly Light"...Newman Reading—"Peace Triumphant"....Knap American Folk Song—"Old Folks at Home".....Stephen Foster Baritone Solo—"Recessional"....Kipling-DeKoven Address—"Music the Universal Language" "Battle Hymn of the Republic" Root "Our America"...Harrison-Stetson "Nearer My God to Thee"...Hymn "Two things were kept in mind in selecting the program," Mrs.Campbell said, "the sougs must be inspiring and they must be unprejudiced in appeal."

OFFICERS IN DRIVE ON SUSPECTS Peace officers of the state are becoming more than ever alert in the apprehension of suspected criminals, with a record of ten or more officers slain in California this year by gunmen to spur them on. Sheriff C. E. Jackson thus comments on the large number of arrests reports and rumors of suspects in connection with the search for Juan Palmarin and Vincente Melgosa, alias Jose Negretta, wanted in Riverside county for killing Deputy Sheriff Crossley and Nelson and wounding Martin Helm. "It shows that officers everywhere are keeping a sharp watch," said Jackson today, referring to the arrest of Paul Barcia and Napoleon Yarra at San Luis Obispo. The two were held on suspicion while their photographs were sent to Riverside for identification, but were found not to be the men wanted.
