Some persons talk glibly about the wonderful genius of Shakespeare who do not look inside a Shakespearean book once a year.
California should have at least one of the great national conventions in 1924. Los Angeles and San Francisco, better get busy on this! Early and energetic work in the field probably would bring one of these great gatherings. It is worth all the requisite
General Peace is marching on, from victory to victory against Mars. But the forces of peace must be on the alert constantly. The war lord will persist shrewdly in fighting for his own way, and militarism will die hard.
Washington correspondents are beginning to conjecture as to who is the author of the naval-holiday proposal put before the Arms Conference by Secretary Hughes. Was it President Harding? Or was it the joint work of four American delegates? This may become a question as moot as that interminable controversial argument as to whether or not Bacon wrote Shakespeare's works.
It would be calamitous to the country if the membership of Congress should become divided up into "blocks," with class selfishness the motive for division. Congress should not be composed of groups, each one of which would be for one class to the exclusion of all others. Congress should be composed of patriots and Americans who should be for the good of all classes and should not represent any one class exclusively.

U. OF C. SOUTH BRANCH. OVERCROWDED
The old woman "who lived in a shoe" and had an embarrassing number of children, if she were now a real flesh-and-blood personage, could sympathize with the University of California, Southern Branch, which has so many students it does not know what to do." Having accommodations for only 2500, the Southern Branch of Los Angeles, is accommodating as best it can, some 3,700 students, and yet it has turned away as many would-be students as it has enrolled. Hence the very great importance of the movement which friends of the university are making to have accommodations and facilities at the Southern Branch greatly extended.
Action, to this end, if had at all, must come from the Board of Regents of the University of California, and also from the Legislature. While it will be many months before these bodies will meet and while no action from them can be had until their regular time of meeting, yet it is imperative that public feeling here in the Southland is registered formally in behalf of enlarged accommodations so that no young man or young woman in this section shall be denied the opportunity to enter an institution of higher learning near home. To this end commercial and civic organizations in this city and throughout Southern California are urged to join in petitioning the Board of Regents and the Legislature to make provision for expansion of the Southern Branch at the earliest time possible. This community is directly interested, because there are here many would-be students who cannot matriculate at the Los Angeles branch because there is no room for them.
Is the very best public policy to

JUDGE STRONG FOR NO ACCIDENT WEEK
"No accident week" is a great thing for Orange co., according to Justice Cox, demon speed killer.
A keen eye on the results to be obtained here is being kept by officials of the Auto Club of So. Calif. for the purpose of getting ideas for the safety week to be inaugurated in other counties following the success of the one here.
According to Judge Cox, the safety week idea is one of the finest ever undertaken by Orange co., and he is loud in his praises of the So. Calif. Club in devising the scheme for helping to cut down the number of accidents.
Anything which tends to bring forcibly to the minds of the public the necessity of less reckless driving is more than commendable," stated Cox in an interview with club officials. "There is too much recklessness over the state, and Orange co. will long be remembered for taking the leaue in such a worthy cause."
Fifteen thousand signs have been erected throughout the county by the Auto Club, and 15,000 auto windshield stickers are available for the use of Orange co. motorists.
School children are carrying home pledges to be signed by their parents in regard to the safety movement, and in this way it is hoped to reach thousands of adults who otherwise would not be affected by the safety campaign.
"No Accident Weew" will continue through next Sunday, by which time it hoped by the officials leading the movement, that the number of accidents will be materially decreased and the idea of accident prevention will be firmly imbedded in the minds of the public.

AGE IN WINTER MORE THAN SUMMER
LONDON, Nov. 26—Declaring we age in winter more than in summer, the medical correspondent of The Times urges the middle-aged to take some measures in the way of exercise to correct the deficiency.
It they will do this, he says, and awake to a realization of the importance of winter exercise they will spare themselves many an hour of ill-health.
The approach of winter raises once again the question of winter exercise, he says. This is a most difficult subject. For at the very period when exercise is most necessary it becomes most difficult to obtain. The difficulty for the business man is especially great. He must leave home at an hour which makes early morning exercise practically impossible. When he returns home again it is already growing dark or quite dark. Thus his opportunities for outdoor recreation are practically withdrawn altogether, except at the week-end.
On the other hand, says the physician, winter is a time of sedentary life. There is no inducement to go out of the office, and people tend to cut down their excursions from their own desks to the lowest point. They sit in warm rooms which they leave only to go to their means. All this means a sluggish circulation and sluggish removal of waste products.
People, especially middle-aged people get fat in winter.
SHOW INTEREST IN FRATERNITY BAN
WASHINGTON, Nov. 25—Inquiries are coming in from different sections of the country as to the order issued by the District of Columbia school authorities to the students barring fraternities. The order was issued some time ago and as school fraternities have become the rage throughout the U. S., the action taken in the national capital is being watched with interest.
DISARMAMENT WILL AID AUTO INDUSTRY
BY J. J. COLE
President Cole Motor Car Company
Aside from its broader and more humanitarian aspects, the success of the disarmament conference will favorably affect every line of business.
Particularly will it affect the motor car industry.
If the steel treating experts of the world are relieved of their task of thinking exclusively in terms of armor plate and armor piercing projectiles, they will have time to help us build non-breakable automobiles.
Certainly, if they can make steel strong enough to withstand the impact of a six-inch shell, they can make an automobile that won't break or bend if you drive it into a telephone pole, a tree, or a concrete bridge.
Steel treating and metallurgics are only in their infancy.
If the disarmament conference succeeds in diverting science from the making of guns and armor plates, to the making of plow shares, trucks, tractors and automobiles, civilization will have been advanced a century overnight.
If the United States could get back all it has spent in warfare, every man and woman in the whole country could have a home, a motor car, a piano, plenty of good clothes, plenty of good, wholesome food, plenty laid away for a rainy day, and every child could have a college education with a trip abroad thrown in for good measure.
The success of the disarmament conference would enable us to build far better motor cars because it would, in time, provide us with better steel to put into them. It would also give us better roads, because there would be more money to spend on roads if we quit wasting our national resources on armament. This combination of better automobiles and better roads would make automobiles last longer—the motor car with more than 100,000 miles to its credit would be the rule rather than the exception.
If the disarmament program goes through, the automobile industry will
ASKS COOPERATION TO CURTAIL DISEASE
The co-operation of the public in preventing the spread of diphtheria in this county is sought by Dr. S. A. Marsden, deputy county health officer.
"There are twenty cases in the county outside of incorporated cities said the health officer. 'Diphtheria is severe in the state. During October more than 1000 cases were reported to the state department and in the first week of this month there were 825."
"Every case of sore throat should be watched carefully. The danger is that some sore throat may be called tonsilitis by the family when it is really diphtheria. The thing to do is to call in a physician and make sure by having a throat culture made. To prevent spread, isolation of cases is the thing to secure."
Most of the cases reported to the county health department are in Olinda and Bolsa districts. Cases in an incorporated city are reported to the county physician, but to the city health officer.

"Thank You"
This acknowledgment of a courtesy or service is somehow the satisfactory end of a transaction. Both parties are pleased and the relations of the moment, however unimportant, are more happily closed.
There is no occasion when an effort made for the comfort or convenience of others is not worth a "thank you."
In the daily routine of telephone operations, where the saving of time is the great consideration, the opportunity of expressing an appreciation of a service rendered seldom arises.
But remember that the telephone operator is human. Courtesy to her means more cheerfulness in her work. It will be reflected in your own self-satisfaction.
