It is to be hoped that the delegates to the armament conference will not show their teeth except in cordial smiles. Ohio cares not what state gets the Vice Presidential nomination in 1924 provided a Buckeye boy is given first place on the ticket. The nights on the moon are two weeks long, measured by the earth's standard of time. There is a boy in this block who would like to visit the moon for a few nights and get all the sleep he wants. It is to be decided soon whether or not the membership of the lower house of congress is to be increased. If there is one thing above another that is needed in house membership it is quality, rather than increase in numbers. It is to be hoped that the rules of open diplomacy will prevail in that conference on limitation of armaments. Any evidence of intriguing would be fatal to the main purpose of the conference. Don't be so envious of the bankers. While they handle vast sums of money, comparatively little of it is their own. They are under pressing responsibilities and it truthfully may be said to their credit that they discharge their tremendously important trust with signal ability and exemplary probity. Honesty and faithfulness under conditions that oftentimes are tempting are the hallmarks of the character of the American banker. THRIFT VERY NOTABLE, IN CALIFORNIA California ranks fourth among the states of the union in volume of deposits and resources of its savings banks. Of the 2,299,000 depositors in state banks, as shown by last official report, 1,590,000 are savings depositors. Assets of savings banks of this state are approximately $1,000,000,000. Deposits in savings banks of California have increased more than $43,500,000 within the last year. These and other facts about the growth of bank savings in California were set forth by Hon. Jonathan S. Dodge, state superintendent of banks, in addressing the American Bankers' Assn. convention in Los Angeles, Mr. Dodge made an eloquent, convincing plea for systematic saving and dwelt upon the benefits thereof to the body politic. He particularly urged development of school savings, pointing out that this develops such sterling character traits in the young as self-denial, prudence, thrift and economy. How much wiser and better it is to place savings in banks than to hide them around in old shoes, stockings or other receptacles, taking all manner of risk of having the money thus stored stolen or destroyed. Besides, it is the poorest kind of policy from the public standpoint. It keeps mony out of circulation and out of useful, developmental investments. Save money, in possible for you to do so, and let the banks be your depositary while you save.

A. L. Waddell of New York City, a bridge engineer. It means Doctor of Engineering in Japanese and was awarded to Dr. Waddell by the Imperial University of Japan. Fifteen federal prohibition agents had a sad blow the other day when they realized for the first time the limitations of their power. They lined up cheerfully with the crowds seeking entrance to the Polo Grounds to see the world series game and announced that they were going in to see if the law was being observed, only to be told that a fully paid for ticket was their only means of entrance. The crowd enjoyed their defeat at the hands of the ticket-taker with what seemed almost personal animosity. On Madison-ave is a shop kept by a man who sells his antiques and art treasures only when he can find no excuse for insisting upon keeping them. One customer was attracted to a beautiful Wedgewood clock the other day but protested at the incredibly high price which was quoted him. "Yes, it is high," said the dealer, "but I make the price high to keep it. I would sell it, but I am happier if no one buys it." Men have occasionally had difficulty in deciding upon the right to be toastmaster at a banquet. It has led to much discussion at times. Women, as usual, have more direct and simple means of solving such contretems. The women supporters of Mayor Hylan's campaign for re-election decided to have a funceon befitting the importance of the time. Mrs. George Childs was suggested for toastmistress. Enthusiasm. Then another group declared that Mrs. Grace Shrachan Foraythe was the logical holder of the time-watch. Enthusiasm from another part of the room. No compromise seemed in view. So: "We will have two luncheons simultaneously and then both can be toastmistresses," decided the women. And so it was. Two luncheons went on in two rooms of the same hotel and all was well. The only sufferance them around in old shoes, stockings or other receptacles, taking all manner of risk of having the money thus stored stolen or destroyed. Besides, it is the poorest kind of policy from the public standpoint. It keeps mony out of circulation and out of useful, developmental investments. Save money, impossible for you to do so, and let the banks be your depositary while you save. Over 600 New York families, say the storage companies moved their furniture to their new apartments this month, only to find that the old tenants were ensconced there comfortably and with all appearance of permanence, and refused to give up either comfort or permanence. The apartments were leased to others when they refused to pay increased rents, but they are taking the matter to the courts and in the meantime are sitting tight. Three million dollars is the estimated fee that ambitious vocal students will spend in this city within the next 30 weeks. There are 30,000 of them here for the season, boys and girls and men and women, gathered from all parts of the country and from a few corners of the rest of the world, determined to land on some sort of concert or operatic stage to add to the song of the nations. Two thousand teachers are devoting themselves here on Manhattan Island to further that determination. The war is still interfering with romance in the lives of immigrants to this country. Ruth Crawford, director of the emigration program of the Y. W. C. A., told the conference held at the Y. W. headquarters here the other day. "Before the war young foreigners in this country saved their money and made a trip home when the time came for them to marry one of their countrywomen." Miss Crawford said. "Nowadays the young men cannot afford the trip home. So he writes to his relatives to pick him out a likely girl, and she is sent out alone. He meets and marries Ellis Island." Among these causes of association work Council was devoted to a consideration of the many problems of the women victims of the war and the increasing number of foreign girls and young women who are seeking asylum in this country. The importance of this latter question is emphasized by the fact that the proportion of women among the immigrants to the U. S. has increased within the last year from 29 to 42 pet. The Y. W. has been doing a tremendous amount of work in helping to save these girls from do divorces, but these causes do not agitation. If black is crome wave," said Jackson.

TREMENDOUS TONNAGE HAUL-ED OVER COUNTRY ROADS WASHINGTON, Oct. 18. — The necessity of keeping the country roads in good condition is shown by a report recently compiled by the Bureau of Markets and Crop Estimates, United States Department of Agriculture, showing the extent to which they are used in hauling farm products to market. According to the report which shows the tonnage of 11 products hauled on country roads, giving the yearly average for the period from 1915 to 1919, there were 27 tons of these 11 crops hauled for every 100 acres of land. The average tonnage of the 11 crops hauled on country roads each year for the period mentioned amounted to 50,500,000 tons. The 11 crops referred to in the report are corn, wheat, barley, oats, rye, flax seed, rice, cotton (including seed), tobacco, potatoes and cultivated hay. GETTING DATA FOR CONFERENCE WASHINGTON, Oct. 18—In preparation for the approaching conference to discuss the limitation of armaments, the State Department has created what is known as a "conference division" which includes chiefs of existing bureaus and specialists on Far Eastern and other subjects to be discussed at the conference. The personnel of this division is already head over heels in work gathering and preparing data that may be needed by the American delegation during the conference.

And you'll discover never. A tale so free from every doubt. All possible, probable shadow of doubt. All possible doubt, whatever." In a diabolical scheme, the fashion makers of the world are employing their powers to create a wholesale epidemic of female banditry this winter. Insidiously decreeing that the fashionable color in all wearing apparel shall be black, they are creating an hypnotical stimulus to crime whose consequence will make the law officers of the country shudder to contemplate. This gentle reader, is nothing more than the obvious, if startling, conclusion to be drawn from declarations of the most recent type of psychologist, the color expert, who in this case happens to be Miss Orchella Rexford, temporarily residing in San Francisco. The lady states quite abruptly and quite positively: "Black is a stimulus to crime, and I believe the black garnuens prescribed by Dame Fashion for women's gowns this winter will result in a crime wave which will sweep the United States from coast to coast. 'Why should the women of America have to follow the styles of Paris, anyway?' she inquires with piquant gesturing. 'If the Parisian woman want black, let them have it, but why should we imperil the morals of our womanhood by adopting the somber black of the Parisian?' "Pure psychological 'bunk!'" is the tense rejoinder of E. M. Nealley, dean of Santa Ana junior college. Prodded to continue, the dean declared: "Crime waves have their causes, so do divorces, but color is not among these causes to any appreciable degree." Among Santa Ana police officers, however, the warning against fashion's decree caused more than a flutter of agitation. "If black is going to increase the crome wave," groaned Sheriff C. E. Jackson. "I'm praying that they'll switch the styles to white. If these crime wave," groaned Sheriff C. E. Know what we'll do with them." An idea struck the sheriff. "So that's why all these chicken thieves sport black! It's fashion stuff! When I thought all the time it was merely being cautious, Well, well!" OIL COMPANY FIELD CHIEF IS ACCUSED Warren E. Cody, field superintendent for the Petroleum Midway Oil Co., at Huntington Beach, was at liberty today under $200 bail, while he awaits trial on a charge of attacking O. M. Prowell. Huntington Beach oil worker, with a deadly weapon. On the strength of Powell's charge that Cady attacked him with a club, Justice C. W. Warner, of Huntington Beach, bound Cady over for trial in the superior court. The alleged encounter took place Oct. 12, following a quarrel over Prowell's alleged failure to accomplish some work that he had been assigned to do. Prowell claimed that Cady pursued him with a 2x12 board about five feet long. News of Oil Fields The Bell of Montebello put in the perforated, cleaned out and made all the necessary preparations to bring the well, when some water developed. It may be necessary to re-cement. On drilling out the cement and making a water test at 2100 the Bolsa Chica Oil Corp., found water and immediately re-cemented. A number of conclusive tests made by A. A. Altman has determined the fact the Blu Shale has some more bottom water and while the quantity is not large some more cementing will have to be done. Fully satisfied that the property of the Cal-Iowa is in the oil zone drilling was commenced today on the well by the Orange-co Drilling Co. Western Union developments and Amalgamated together with the showings in the Miller Syndicate makes the Cal-Iowa look good. Drilling on the Eddystone Oil Corp.'s Huff No. 1 is now at 4045 feet. The formation is brown shale with fare showings of oil. On the Ashton property No. 2 set 15-inch at 700 feet. Davenport No. 1 set at 2580 and will produce in the top sand. No. 2 Davenport is building rig. As soon as the hole can be cleaned out and put into condition to go ahead Edens Syndicate No. 1 is to be deepened. Near by development has already shown that the Edens Syndicate is in a heavy producing belt and a good well can be made out of it. "Silent" Joe Erwin is now looking after the Edens go back on production. The hole has been cleaned out, and as soon as the washing out work is done the well will be brought in. Drilling at 2385 the Huntington Midway Crude is getting some encouraging showings. This section of the field is in need of a well, and should the Midway Crude be successful it will open up a lot of new development and start a number of wells drilling that have stood idle for months. Prospecting ahead is the program of the Invadera-Oil Co. At 2345 the 8-inch was set. The drilling ahead is now close to 2900 where it is thought the production string will be landed. That the Miley-Keck Oil Co. thinks well of Huntington Beach is evidenced by the fact that this company has just located three new wells in lot 59. The new wells are Nos. 8, 9, and 10. Miley-Keck No. 4 last week's sensation continues to make 400 barrels of 27 gravity oil. No. 1 down 2600 feet is held up with mechanical troubles. No. 2 produces around 75 barrels. No. 3 is a rig. No. 5 is rigging up, and No. 7 set 15-inch at -420 feet. The big Mile ywell go called on account of the big initial production the well made has been cleaned out, freed from the stand and is now making a regular production of 500 barrels. The October production of the Huntington Beach field got a big boost the first day of the month with the coming in of the Petroleum Co. Porter No. 1 a 1000 barrel well. Drilled to 3489 this well promises to be one of the field's best. Brown No. 2 at 3650 is drilling do divorces, but color is not among these causes to any appreciable degree. Among Santa Ana police officers, however, the warning against fashion's decree caused more than a flutter of agitation. "If black is going to increase the crome wave," groaned Sheriff C. E. Jackson. "I'm praying that they'll switch the styles to white. If these crime wave," groaned Sheriff C. E. know what we'll do with them." An idea struck the sheriff. "So that's why all these chicken thieves sport black! It's fashion stuff! When I thought all the time it was merely be cautious, Well, well!" "Mercy!" gasped Mrs. Birdie Swanwick, stenographer at the sheriff's office, as she glanced down at her trim black dress. "It would be criminal to wear anything but black now." "However," she sighed. "I suppose I'll be 'in' before the week is over. That is if it's fashionable." City Marshal Sam Jernigan reflected deeply on the "fashion hint" before he remarked: "Ahemi!" From this statement it may be inferred that Jernigan knows all about men criminals. The city marshal does, however, believe that the crime wave is waving about as hard as it can. The lady bandits can't speed up the peace officers beyond their present gait, which is the limit, he thinks. FAMOUS PAINTING IS DECLARED FAKE LONDON, Oct. 18.—A special dispatch to the Daily Express from Berlin quotes Professor Marion, director of the art museum at The Hague, as declaring that the Rembrandt painting, "The Mill," bought by Joseph Widener of Philadelphia, is a fake. Professor Marten states that the same statement applies to examples of Rembrandt's works in Buckingham palace, the Louvre and the Wallace collection. He says they are copies of the originals. Widener was reported to have paid in the neighborhood of $500,000 for the picture. Did you get Wang Wang Blues, 308 E. Center. The Plain Drafter for Good Printing.
