Each and every nation participating in that conference on limitation of armaments should say what it means and mean what it says.
The world will be none the better off should that disarmament conference end in a draw. The grim old god Mars should be given a knockout.
The disarmament conference will decide whether or not the dove of peace is to be protected throughout the world, or pot-shotted at the whim of the war lords.
The sanitarians are relieved of one of their former self-imposed duties. They no longer lecture the women about the dangers of sweeping up germs from the street with their skirts.
Brooms last twice as long as formally, although no better in quality. Respectfully referred to the domestic science departments of the schools and colleges, with power to act.
MEMORIAL DAY SACRED. IS G. A. R. IDEAL
That Memorial Day should be kept free from commercialism, from boisterous sports and from any and every form of desecration, is the plea made by Commander-in-Chief William A. Ketcham, in his annual address to the G. A. R. encampment at Indianapolis. The day should be holy and sacred, dedicated to the memory of the Nation's heroic dead of all wars. In several states, it was pointed out, the day is protected by law against desecration. It should be thus protected in all the states.
It should be the eager purpose of all the people to join with the G. A. R., the American Legion, and all patriotic organizations, in nunculating in the rising generation a deep reverence for the heroic dead. This sen-
A CALL TO PRAYER FOR THE ARMAMENT CONFERENCE
Striking paragraphs from the call to prayer and consecration for the success of the Conference of Limitation of Armament issued to 150,000 congregations by the Federal Council of Churchee of Christ in America are:
"Let us not shrink from proclaiming unequivocally that war is not a necessity, that the pacific settlement of every international question is possible, that a warless world can really be achieved. Our witness must be unmistakable that force is not the final arbiter among the nations, but that justice, reason and good-will can control their life as well as the life of individual men. To continue to point to the mailed fist as our ultimate reliance and to carry on a program of mutual distrust and fear, is to underline the very foundation of our Christian faith.
'Let there be throughout the church a fire of holy indignation not only against war but also against the mad competition in armaments which has nourished suspicions, ill-will and fear, and from which wars have always sprung and always will.
'Let us pray unceasingly that the Spirit of God may guide our leaders assembled at the Conference of nations, that unselfish motives and wise councils may prevail. Let us give ourselves unstintedly to cultivating a Christian public opinion so strong that it will make possible the richest results from their deliberations. We cannot be satisfied with a mild curtailment of our military expenditure.
Nothing less than a far-reaching reduction in armaments on sea and land can suffice. It is not for us to dictate the specific plans by which the longed-for goal may be achieved, but insist we must, with all the pas-"

The Village Gossip
George Smithburn, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. C. Smithburn, 222 East Chapman avenue, Fullerton, a student in Junior college, has recently devised and built a tractor for cultivating beans, gardens, orchards and the like that promises to be a wonderful success, having tried it out in cultivating the flower plots on the school campus and the beans on the Smithson ranch.
The tractor was built by the young man during the time allotted to mechanical work at the college and, that it is convenient to operate, does its work well, and is operated at small expense, are advantages that recommend it most highly.
The young man is now working on drawings necessary for making application for a patent. The motor will be of his own design and will be mounted on the tractor in a way...

This practice is invaluable to the girls. An invitation is extended all patrons of the school to come and view the work that is done by these classes.
The only stagecraft class that has ever been established in the school is now making great strides. The class is governed by Miss Irene Mac Lean, an expert in that line. There is probably no other class of this type in any Orange-co school. When plays are put on, it is the stage craft class which has charge of the lighting effects, make-up, costuming, getting of props and other essentials that make the play a success. This study is a new one to be introduced and the entire class is very much satisfied with the work that they have accomplished.
Mr. Jack Retlaw, manager of the California, has taken a decided interest in the class, so much so that he invited the class to come to the show the day before it opened and showed them the paraphernalia on the back stage. He took time to explain the lighting effects upon the curtains and the way the curtainss are manipulated. In fact, he showed them everything they wished to see. Miss Mac Lean expressed her wishes that the parents come to the school and look over the work that their children are doing and give them a bit of encouragement.
Mr. Retlaw extended the dynamics class an invitation to attend any of the big plays, thus to create an inspiration. The class has planned more of these outings. The members take turns in the managing the different exhibitions put on by the class and this gives them all a chance to display talent that will bring them to the front. The class is composed of Mat Bettsold, Ed Brown, Elmer Clabaugh, Doris Eden, Lois Garrison, Nick Hile, Gladys Koch, Mabel Mitchell, Louise Schmidt, Homer Wallace, George Nealy and Jack Carol.

Will Coordinate Efforts to Help Nation’s Jobless
To Colonel Arthur Woods, former Police Commissioner of New York City and at the close of the war Assistant to the Secretary of War, charged with helping to re-establish service men in civil life, has been assigned the complex administrative task of coordinating the efforts and interchanging the ideas of the Mayors’ Emergency Committees recommended throughout the country by the President’s Conference on Unemployment.
President Harding described as follows the bureau of which Herbert Hoover, Secretary of Commerce and Chairman of the Unemployment Conference, named Colonel Woods head:
"In order that there may be unity of action by all the forces which may be brought to bear, whether governmental or private, the unemployment conference is establishing an agency in Washington through which appropriate coordination can be promoted, and through which reports on progress and suggestions may be given general cir-
LA HABRA STAGES HALLOWE’EN PARTY
LA HABRA, Oct. 27.—La Habra is to have a Hallowe’en community "high jinks" Friday night.
At 7 o'clock Friday night, all will meet at the social hall, where they will be lined up for the parade. They will then march through the town and on to the school house grounds where a program, and later a bonfire on the school grounds, will be a source of entertainment to all.
Many plans have already been prepared and the occasion promises to be one of the joyiest and liveliest put on by home taken for some time. A large number of local people as well as every business and social organization in the community are displaying a great deal of interest in the program for the evening; and many will take part in it.
One of the features of the community being to be led by G. W. Young, will be some original verses entitled "La Habra: Pass, Future, and As She In."
Several tables will be put on by the school, prizes to be awarded the three best. Cash prizes of $4, $2 and $1 will be given to the girl wearing the best costume in the parade and similar prizes will be given to the boy wearing the best outfit. There will be no age limit in connection with the event.
Anyone marching in the parade without either mask or costume will be arrested and tried in the Kangaroo Court. $2 prize will be awarded for the best pumpkin Jack-o-Lantern exhibited by the grammar school pupils.
Individual stunts and refreshments around the bonfire will be still another attraction.
The Woman's club yesterday made plans for the entertainment of the district federation next month. The committee is Meadames L. J. Wester, W. J. Rhodes, Charles Varney and M. L. Davis. A committee was also appointed to confer with the local C. of C. relative to the meeting of the A. C. of C. which will be held in La Habra next month.
Mr. and Mrs. Claude Ridgeway were the host and hostess at a delightful Halloween party at their pretty home on Cypress-st Tuesday. The rooms were very cleverly decorated in orange and black, suggestive of the holiday. Various Halloween games were played and in the evening the hostess served Halloween refreshments. The guests were members of the Harbor class of the M. E. church.
Miss Alice Wilson was the honoree at a delightful surprise miscellaneous shower at the social hall of the church Tuesday. The inspiration for this affair was the announcement made of her approaching marriage early in November. The wedding is to be an event of the social season.
E. A. Davis and family and Mr. and Mrs. Hendricks arrived at the home of Mrs. M. L. Davia last night from No Calif. They have found a location in Pullerton and will make that their future home.

Alaska's agricultural accomplishment is limited to the growing of strawberries—large strawberries according to James Smiley, of Villa Park, who recently returned from a visit to Uncle Sam's northern possession. Smiley spoke at a meeting of the Villa Park farm center. Although he took as his topic "Agriculture in Alaska," he stated early in his address that during his trip through the Klondike regions he saw little along that line. The efforts of the Alaskan farmer are centered on the production of strawberries, which they claim, are the best in the world. Otherwise they do little agricultural work.

HUSBANDLESS GIRLS SUICIDE
TOKIO, Oct. 27 — "Shinja," or cide by pairs of lovers who find obstacles, are a recognized commonplace in Japan, but recently several cases of trios seeking death together have come to public notice.
In one place a gelisha and her lover decided to seek happiness in another world and another gelisha, who heard of their intention was so charmed with the romanticism of the idea that she insisted on being one of the party. So the three hired a boat, tied themselves together and found death in the ocean near Osaka.
In another instance, a school girl decided to take her life and told two other girls of her intention. The two friends wished to show their loyalty even until death, and one morning the three small corpses were found
