The most alarming phase of the prevalence of crime and vice thrust out the country is that which denotes the demoralization of boys and girls of tender years. This is the more startling as it seems to be a spreading evil. Against it all the forces and influences of good should be directed. For it endangers the very life of the nation. The tribute to world war heroes on Armistice Day should be extraordinarily impressive, the country over. Appreciation of sacrifices made by valiant men in the great struggle should be keen and profound and should be manifested with fervor on each recurring anniversary of the historic Armistice. California should keep itself advertised before the world. Its resources and attractions should be emblazoned throughout the country systematically. Reliance should not be placed wholly upon past promotional publicity or in the momentum—so to speak—that the state already has attained. Practical pushing of the commonwealth on its advancing, developing course should be given steady attention. HEROIC SACRIFICE BY AN AGED WOMAN Dangerous speeding develops frequently heroic actions—but this is not any defense for the speeding. In New York, a grandmother, eighty years old, gave her life to save her four-year-old granddaughter from the wheels of a truck. Ofentimes mothers sacrifice themselves to save their children. And not infrequently a boy or girl of tender years gives life to save a younger child from oncoming danger. While this heroism, in and of itself is superlative admirable, yet there should be no such perils to call for heroic, yet needless, sacrifice of life. In New York, as in other large cities, speeding is so common and fatal accidents are so numerous as to sicken the heart of all humane persons who study the situation. An aviator has ascended to a height of more than 40,000 feet and finds that atmosphere up there is about as frigid as that which surrounds the stern papa who is grimly resolved the importunate swain who wants his daughter shall not have her.

A. Geissinger spoke yesterday morning at the White Temple on "The Opportunity for Religion In Everyday Life." His text was Rev. 21:3. "The tabernacle of God is with men and he will dwell with them." He said in part: "When you think of religion, how do you think of it? Do you think of cathedrals with vaulted ceilings, long aisles, stained glass windows, dim religious light? Of swinging censors and robed ministrants and vested choir? Of days and ceremonies and rites and rituals? If you do you think as the majority of people do, and you think wrong. "Jesus never thought that way. When Jesus talked about religion he was thinking of a poor fellow lying by the side of the road in his own blood, having fallen among thieves. Religion was going to him to help him. He said that we were to be like good bankers and investors, making use of every talent and faculty we have. He went into the kitchen and saw the house wife at work making her bread. He said religion was like the yeast a woman casts into the lump of dough, it must lift the whole lump. "Always religion with him was out in real life about daily tasks and all of his illustrations were taken from every day life. It is a fisherman mending his nets, a farmer plowing his fields, a carpenter putting in the foundation for his house, the shepherd guarding his flock, the woodsman burying his ax in the tree, the night watch on his round. "Christianity emphasizes two great facts about religion; on one side it means service, and on the other prayer. We must withdraw from the thick of things to pray, to rest our hearts, but the field of religion is the world. "The mediaeval idea of religion was all wrong. They then thought that if they could get out of the world and away from its cares they could ve religious, and so they built themselves convents and monasteries and oratories and went apart from the work of the world to worship God and to grow their souls. You perhaps have some times thought that if you could go away from the grind of every day life and its petty irritations and clashes that you could be a good Christian. But you are mistaken. "God has set us families which must be supported, and given us work which must be done, and neighbors with whom we must live, not to harrass us, but to give us opportunities for religion. Life with its cares and burdens and collisions develops our characters and is God's training school for the homely, simple virtues that make life beautiful. It is thus we learn endurance, patience, forbearance, consideration for others, courtesy, goodwill and love which is the Santa Fe Springs SANTA FE LEASE, Nov. 7.—(Spl.) Mr. C.

Claudina-st, cost $150. world about him. After a few honest but seemingly futile efforts his temptation is to give up and to say, "What's the use?" That is the most subtle temptation that ever comes to a really good man. There is only one cure for it—only one safeguard against it; go out to Calvary and stand by Christ. He saw the evil of the world, the lethargy of men's hearts, the spiritual inertia of the souls of men, and yet he thought that men and women were worth dying for. And if your consecration sags, go out and stand there until your faith is renewed and you are strong enough to take up your life work again. Arthur Brooks said of his great brother, Phillips Brooks, after the latter's death: "God be praised today! From God he came; with God he walked; God's world he loved; God's children he helped; God's church he led; God's blessed Son he followed; God's nearness he enjoyed; with God he dwells." Thus and thus only can we live our busy lives true to Christ. Our peril today is not the retreat from life to break with the secular as they did in the middle ages. Our peril is at the other extreme. Life has become almost entirely secularized for us. Law originally came from a divine source. Every great law-giver so represents the source of his commandment, so her it is Moses or Humannu or whoever. So architecture arose from the effort to build a temple to worship in, and painting came from the desire to decorate the temple, and music came for the sanctuary. Even the drama had a religious origin as education for the people was to enable them to read God's word. Now all of these great interests have become secularized. All life today is more or less secularized. It needs to be we-bathed in heaven. All serious thinkers have been alarmed at the thinning out of life. Some years ago Mr. Gladstone said in substance that he was painfully impressed with the gain of the seen upon the unseen; the vast expansion of the apparatus of God has set us families which must be supported, and given us work which must be done, and neighbors with whom we must live, not to harrass us, but to give us opportunities for religion. Life with its cares and burdens and collisions develops our characters and is God's training school for the homely, simple virtues that make life beautiful. It is thus we learn endurance, patience, forbearance, consideration for others, courtesy, good-will and love, which is the essence of religion. Maybe you have thought that you were being religious when you were in the hush of the church service, listening to the organ or the choir or the preached word. But you were simply getting ready to be religious. These services are means of grace. God is with men and it is out in life where we meet him. His presence is to be realized in the thick of human affairs, and it is there we have our spiritual opportunity. Being a Christian is following Christ. It is action. It is doing things. Christianity is always going about doing good. The greatest question we ever have to ask is this: "What would Jesus do if he were here in my place?" That is not an easy question to answer but each man has to answer it for himself. Mr. Sheldon wrote a book some years ago to show that Christianity for each man is an honest effort to answer that question for himself, and it ran into a circulation of twenty-two million copies. That shows how men and women think at this point. It is hard to say what it means to be a Christian in our modern situation. What it means to follow Christ sincerely. Granted that we have the pinnent heart to repudiate the goodness of life, and the faith that casts itself upon Christ, and the surrendered will and the obedience that goes with Christian faith, still it is hard to find the way. It is not easy to live a Christian life in our modern industrial situation, but we must seek to know. We get no place by seeking to window from the complex of every day life. The area of every day life is an opportunity for religion because it drives us back upon God. No man ever seeks to do right and to follow Christ that he does not find obstacles in his own inner life and in the 5-Point SERVICE STATION Save Money on Gasoline BUY A GAS BOOK 50 GAL. 100 GAL.

Five of the larger crops, plus the returns from oil and oil by-products produced in the county, will bring to the producers by the end of the present year over half a hundred million dollars. These figures have been disclosed in recent summing up of crop productions and estimating their values in dollars and cents on the basis of average prices for the crops for the period of the season of their active marketing. With the receipts worked down into cold dollars and cents, their value is more deeply impressed, and to many, are revelations that are surprising. A series of estimates were made recently on the leading crops by men who are identified with the harvesting and marketing of the products. The averages have been made on a co-operative basis, so as not to over-rate the value of each on the productions. Beets, walnuts, valencia oranges, lemons, walnuts and some of the vegetable crops have been included in the estimates, and they alone show probable returns of $23,750,000. Oil and by-products increase the total $28,000,000. They tell the story only of income from six of twenty-seven different sources of revenue available to men who operate on 254,388 acres of tillable soil in the county. Thousands of dollars are added by receipts from apricots, apples, avocado beans, bees and honey, celery, dairy products, fish, miscellaneous fruits, grain, hay, livestock, loquats, olives and olive oil, persimmons.
