Princess Mary had this advantage over some of the girls of the commonality. No small brother mischievously stuck pins in the sofa or made embarrassing remarks to her suitor. If the child gets no moral training in the home or the school where will it get it? If it gets no moral training anywhere, what standard of morality reasonably may be expected, as the child emerges from infancy into youth and adulthood? All the world is interested in the true-love story of Princess Mary, of England, and Viscount Lascelles. It seemingly is one of those beautiful examples of unadulterated devotion—which warms the heart to complete. There are far too many thefts of automobiles here in California. While many of the stolen machines are recovered, yet there is loss and annoyance to owners, and the moral effect of so much thievery is very bad. Penalties for stealing machines should be severe, and the law should be relentlessly, without too much probationing of offenders. Manufacturing in California, now only in its infancy, surely will develop into prodigious volume as hydro-electric power is brought forth and made available to industry. The time is not far off when California will be an empire unto itself, manufacturing to meet all its needs and producing a vast deal for shipment into other states and for export overseas. Meanwhile, its agricultural and with manufacturing. That California erelong may become the richest state in the Union is not too fanciful for expectation. FRIENDSHIP OF WORLD SOUGHT BY JAPAN Japan, reports from Tokio indicate, is making a strong bid for the confidence and trustful goodwill of the world. It is ready to abandon some of its ambitions and to recast its policies in order to disarm suspicion of Western nations. This move on Japan's part will be gratifying, should it evolve into unmistakable sincerity and purpose. Japan has its glowing opportunity at this juncture. It could displace the distrust in which it is held throughout the Western world if it should right-about-face, if it should make real sacrifices, in an unselfish way, to make its course toward China and in other directions square with occidental notions of the fitness of things. Straightforward unselfishness on Japan's part now would win more friendship and a greater measure of confidence from the Western world than any course Japan possibly could take. There is no denying the fact that there is distrust of the alms and motives of Japan, and this distrust is strong here in the United States. And yet it is not so strong as to be immovable prejudice. Japan herself could remove it by assuming a benevolent course, free from conquest and with no semblance of craft or guilt in it. Japan is on trial before the world today. It will emerge from the Arms Conference either better trusted or else more acutely distrusted than when it entered that historic assemblage. Austin's Music Store, 308 E.

These meetings have the opportunity to do much good towards starting work on the development of the lower Colorado River from which development will flow a wonderful prosperity for all the southwest. I have been working on this proposal for a number of years and am greatly interested in seeing the undertaking successfully begun. I am convinced that when this project is completed it will compare favorably with the Panama Canal in importance and in the amount of benefits resulting therefrom to the American people. The present is a critical time for this great undertaking. Harmony is absolutely necessary. The need effort of the southwest is needed, if we are to succeed. It is a big enterprise and should be looked at in a big way. Factional strife must be eliminated. Local jealousies and personal feeling should be submerged for the good of all. There will be benefits enough for all, once the work is done. I consider the development of the Colorado river the most important domestic matter before the people today, and I am, therefore, arranging my plans to attend these meetings. I hope you will not only follow the proceedings closely and give them the publicity they deserve, but that you will also use your influence to see that delegates from your community realize the importance of reaching an agreement to work together for the common good. Sincerely yours, PHIL D. SWING, Congressman 11th Calif Dist. Wm. Trapp Jr., Cement Pipe, 107-R-4 The Village Gossip And now, as to those cute and perfectly darling little Christmas cards and small envelopes— They'll have to go. No less a personage than Herbert Works, first assistant postmaster general, says so according to information received here. Works argues that in addition to the great loss of time incidental to handling miniature post cards an Christmas greetings, the chance of actual loss is great. "During the holiday season large quantities of very small envelopes and cards are put into the mails, with the result that all postal work is very much retarded and mail is disfigured and mutilated." Works declared. "This is not generally known to the public." Works continued. "The minimum size of cards and envelopes," Works said, "should not be below 2.3-4 by 4 inches for the following reasons: 1. Addresses will be obliterated by cancellation mark. 2. Too small to be run through facing table, necessitating three extra handlings, with consequent delay not only to this but other mail. 3. Delay in cancellation because of awkwardness in putting through cancelling machines. 4. Delayed through difficulty in sorting. 5. Liability to loss or damage as small sizes do not fit letter packages and can not be tied securely. These odd and diminutive size-pieces of stationery have come into use in the past few years and only appear now in any quantities at Christmas time when the whole postal institution is keyed up to top speed and trying to keep on top of the load." Works concluded. Theodore Frost, 17, of Waterloo, Ia., almost reached his goal, which was Tia Juana, Mexico. He was prevented from doing so by Deputy Sheriff C. M. Woods, whom he asked for a ride near Orange. As a result, Frost is being held in NOTED ACTRESS BARES LIFE SECRET CHICAGO, Dec. 2: — The secret in the life of Marie Dressler, actress, was laid bare today following the death of James H. Dalton, Boston, known to friends as her husband. Miss Dressler is now on her way to Corning, N.Y., with the body of Dalton, which will be buried in the Dalton family lot. A representative of Miss Dressler stated today that Dalton was married to Mrs. L. A. Dalton, 60 Brighton avenue, Aliston, a suburb of Boston. Through her confidants this is the story Miss Dressler told: "I met Mr. Dalton in 1907 when he was in financial straits. I hired him as my manager. "We grew to care for each other and decided to get married. Then he confessed he had a wife in Boston. We went to her and asked her to give him up and get a divorce. She refused. He never went home after that, but sent her a monthly allotment." Dalton died at a hotel shortly after he arrived here to join Miss Dressler. CARD OF THANKS We wish to express our deep appreciation and heartfelt thanks to the community as a whole, and to those friends of our husband and father, and those of our selves, for the many kindnesses and considerations shown us during our recent bereavement.
