Per year $2; Stx months, $1.5%. Retired at the Postoffice at Anaheim, Calif., as second class matter. The Arms Conference will strike the right chord if it gets in accord. They seem to be able to hold Roy Gardner in Arizona. The polite child is a living testimonial of proper training at home and in school. There is such a thing as speaking or writing language properly without being pedantic or painfully precise. Congress has much to do. But it will hardly get its slices rolled up in earnest until after Christmas dinner with the home folk. There has been another "revolution" in Guatemala for the reason that is usual down there—the "outs" want in, and the "ins" do not want to get out. If nations took time to "cool off" before plunging into war, they would not take the plunge, in the greater number of instances of international misunderstandings. The idealist serves very good purpose in the affairs of the world as well as the intensely practical person. Idealism gives the proper reasoning and flavor to that which is practical. Results of the Arms Conference deliberations to date give exceedingly bright prospects. World peace and better understanding are being promoted tangibly and substantially. The good fruits of the conference, from present indications, will be neither chimerical nor make-believe. The spread of democracy throughout the world is the greatest assurance that warfare can and will be abolished. Matrialistic plotters and self-aggrendizing or truculent schemers will not be able to precipitate great wars in future, as they have in the past. The peoples of free nations are ruling themselves more BETTER TIMES AT HAND, SAYS MR. HOOVER Herbert C. Hoover, Secretary of Commerce, speaks of the year just closing as a period of "liquidation," but he prophesies that the year 1922 will be a year of "recuperation." The United States has passed through the worst stages of depression "and is now on the up-grade," says Mr. Hoover. Construction, for example, has been showing very encouraging improvement for the last three months. “There have been reassuring signs of a business revival from the deep slump which all the world has been experiencing,” says President Harding, in his message to congress: “our unemployment, which gave us deep concern only a few weeks ago, has grown encouragingly less.” Business is gradually improving in the east, betterment of conditions being apparent in almost every line of trade, says E. H. Augustus, a Cleveland capitalist, in Pasadena for the winter. This is the cheerful tenor of reports, assertions and auguries from many responsible sources. Bank statements, clearings, trade statistics and all, indicate that the revival has begun. It is not phenomenal. It is not a tidal-wave. But it is definite, unmistakable and substantial. And it is spreading to all parts of the country. Every city and town in Southern California feels that Los Angeles should increase its police force and make its policing adequate to the task of driving desperate criminals from that city. As conditions are, Los Angeles is a clearing-house for criminality, in this section, from which this and other cities and town suffer. If the criminals were banished from Los Angeles, they could be driven from this section, as there is no probability that they would try to remain and operate in smaller centers of population. They are too shrewd... The spread of democracy throughout the world is the greatest assurance that warfare can and will be abolished. Matrialistic plotters and self-aggrendizing or truculent schemers will not be able to precipitate great wars in future, as they have in the past. The peoples of free nations are ruling themselves more and more directly and completely, and the cry of the millions in every land is against warfare, its horrors and its burdens. Every city and town in Southern California feels that Los Angeles should increase its police force and make its policing adequate to the task of driving desperate criminals from that city. As conditions are, Los Angeles is a clearing-house for criminality, in this section, from which this and other cities and town suffer. If the criminals were banished from Los Angeles, they could be driven from this section, as there is no probability that they would try to remain and operate in smaller centers of population. They are too shrewd to risk detection and arrest by such a course. It is the comparative safety of the larger city which emboldens them.

Better Records — Less Effort The wide carriage of this style Burroughs doubles its usefulness in your business In gathering daily, weekly and monthly figure information with which to control your business and increase your profit, you naturally use wide forms which can be bound for permanent record. The easiest way to get that information, then, is to have a machine that will accommodate wide forms as well as ordinary roll paper. That's the way this new style Burroughs doubles its usefulness. A Twelve-inch Carriage The twelve-inch carriage on this Burroughs Adding Machine will accommodate all the forms used in the average business. These include forms used in making business statements, summarizing receipts and disbursements, classifying expenses, distributing sales, taking inventory, preparing income tax reports and similar work. By listing and adding these items directly on the wide form you retain the itemized record without a relisting of items or copying of totals. Look around your office; see how many wide forms you are using. Then estimate the time and money you could save by having a wide carriage Burroughs handle those forms. You'll find the Burroughs will pay its own way. Ask a Burroughs salesman to show you this new style and explain why it will be to your advantage to buy a new wide carriage Burroughs this month. The Burroughs Duplex saves time and labor on any work involving accumulative totals. The Duplex is really two machines in one as it will add two lists of items at one time and give combined totals. Burroughs Adding Machine Company Riverside Office Frank Shearer, Mgr. 672 Eighth St. Adding-Bookkeeping-Calculating-Machines Burroughs NEW YORK, Dec. 12.—That the old order may be the better after all, was made evident the other evening to the crowd that stood in the rain at Forty-second street and Eighth avenue waiting for a chance to cross Traffic was streaming northward, and more than one halted pedestrian was splashed as taxicabs and privately owned automobiles shot past through the water. In all the lines that passed before the policemen blew his whistle there were two horse drawn cabs and one hansom. The drivers of all these seeing the pool ahead of them reined in their horses, which had been pulling with the vehicles along smartly to keep pace with the autos, and walked them through the pool. Grateful glances from the delayed crowd were their reward. There always was something fine about horses and all who had anything to do with them. Yet another new one has been pulled here. On Saturday night the commuting is very heavy between New York and some of the close by week end places. When one is invited for a week end, it is reasonable to suppose that you are expected to "bring something with you." The luggage of the passengers would indicate that they do, to say nothing of the guilty look which covers their countenance. Such a passenger with such a look set his bulging baggage down on the floor in the Grand Central last Saturday, and instantly an officious person walked over to him, demanding, "Is this your bag?" Immediately the owner denied that it was, whereupon the stranger picked it up and walked away without protest from its owner. "Seven quarts" was the traveler's sadly murmured refrain as he watched his treasure being taken away. Just off hand, it would seem to me that wrestling and music are slightly incongruous, but it seems that I am all wrong. Stanialaus Zoysko—if you were about here you could pronounce it easily and would know that he is alternately on the mat and at the Metropolitan. In the one case he is the show and in the other the audience. This might wrestling champion of steel and nerve and muscle is as confirmed a first-nighter at the onsite as any patron of the gilded NEW YORK, Dec. 13.—Like the proverbial cobbler, the best known American newspaper and magazine authority on automobiles, is without a single motor car to his name. George W. Sutton Jr., one of our citizens, writes a million words a month about them, although he has none of his own. He frankly admits that he cannot afford one, and strangely enough after his glowing accounts, month after month, in most of the magazines, he has never been offered a sample model by the all-too-ungrateful manufacturers. But this fact has not deterred him; his book, "How to Run Your Car," is an authority for drivers and owners alike. It is a safe guess that Mr. Sutton is not very sorry about the automobile business being affected by the present financial and industrial depression. Have you a "turn around" fund? It keeps away rainy days and helps you take advantage of sunny opportunities. Treasury Savings Certificates yield 4 per cent interest, compounded quarterly, when until maturity. They protect you against the rainy day, because they can always be converted on short notice into cash at more than their original cost. URGE U. S. FLEET EQUAL TO BRITISH The naval ratio of the United States, Great Britain and Japan for many years to come will be 5-6-3, with Britain 6, if the Hughes disarmament proposals are adopted, says Edward F. McSweeney, of the Knights of Columbus historical commission, in a fresh protest against the proposals. "There will be no equality between the United States and Great Britain until the navies concerned have reached the 5-5-3 stage, he says." The period at which this equality is to obtain is dependent upon the duration of the first agreement and the obsolescence of the ships, since the final equalization is to be achieved through the limitation of replacement." The writer, after mentioning some of Britain's leading naval bases, says that in the Mediterranean, Suez canal and elsewhere the American fleet In development of the prize that the "customer is boss" an engender a feeling of closer relationship between employer and employee the Orange County Auto Trades association, arranging for a get-to-gether banquet and holding of employers and employees at held at 7 o'clock this evening at a cafeteria of the Anaheim Union school.

Just off hand, it would seem to me that wrestling and music are slightly incongruous, but it seems that I am all wrong. Stanialaus Zoysko—if you were about here you could pronounce it easily and would know that he is alternately on the mat and at the Metropolitan. In the one case he is the show and in the other the audience. This mighty wrestling champion of steel and nerve and muscle is as confirmed a first-nighter at the opera as any patroness of the gilded circle. He cannot understand that there should be any wonder shown in this aesthetic interest. "Why, that opera, it helps me wrestle. Music is beautiful and every man no matter what he is or does, must have something beautiful to help him through life. Music is my help. It gives me high ideals. Do you think wrestlers do not need high ideals? They do." This from a physical marvel, forty-two years old, and according to the popular idea wedded to all the pastimes which go with the prize ring, gives something to think about. There must be something representing beauty in every kind of success. Forrest Rutherford, "a Western newspaperman," has given us a new play, and far be it from me to neglect anything which a newspaper person does. It is his first play, but has met with great popular favor. The title is, "Her Salary Man," and in an exceptional cast, particularly good work is done by Ruth Shepley, A.H. Van Buren and Edna May Oliver. The story is rather novel. An American heiress deliberately hires a man as a husband to free herself from the tyrannies of a demon chaperone who has been wished on her by her father's will. He gets on the job in all too convincing manner and in a short time it is doubtful whether "Take my advice, New York, and the very first year it will bring 1,000,000 more people here, who will spend $10,000,000, while in no time at all the whole country will be coming here." These are not the words of a world's fair promoter, but of an artist, Joseph Pennell, recently elected to the American Academy, has some ideas on how are can be made to pay. If art but organizes a sales department, he declares, it can prove that the best art of modern times is a better investment than bonds. He proposes that we should turn over to the various artistic societies of the city the west wing of the Metropolitan Museum as a place in which to hold a national art exhibition. He would also permit other exhibitions to be held there, including those of the arts and crafts, and the automobile and horse shows. He cites the same plan operating with success in Paris, and maintains that by so doing an art standard would be set up for the entire country and we would thus secure a national art. The newest "immortal" has no use for the servile tendency to accept European art just because it is European. CITY HALL PLANS DISCUSSED THURS. Plans for the completion of Anaheim's new city hall will be among the matters to be discussed at the adjourned meeting of the board of trustees Thursday night. Some changes in the specifications, drawn by M. Eugene Duxfee, were made necessary by the growing needs of the city and these rearrangements have about been completed. The new structure will be erected at a cost of approximately $75,000.

The new-est "immortal" has no use for the servile tendency to accept European art just because it is European. One more sin of stabilizing of international market conditions in hitherto uncertain parts of the world is the brand new Mexican Chamber of Commerce which has just established itself here.

BE CAREFUL ABOUT BATTERY SOLUTION Minds of motorists are being played upon these days with so-called battery rejuvenators and solutions to recharge the cells quickly, sold as mysterious compounds which will recharge your battery in twenty minutes. Many will recall several years ago when get-rich-schemes developed to make your gasoline go farther by adding a powder, a tablet or a liquid to a tank of gas, but all of these have been discarded because they did not deliver the economy promised. "It is just the same way with these new preparations that are on the mark for renewing the energy of your battery" says the local distributor of Gill Batteries. "Add new life to your battery, recharge your battery in a few minutes," and many similar phrases are being used to attract the guilible motorist to buy and use. All these preparations cost money, yet any battery station can do the same thing by adding strong acid to the battery. Any batteryman and most automobile owners know the harmful effects of such applications. "We advise any motorist that is inclined to be attracted by these preparations to consult a battery expert BELIEVE WHITTIER BLAZE INCENDIARY The fire at the plant of the Union Oil Co. in Whittier was of incendiary origin, the city's fire department believes. Several tanks of water threatened for a time by blaze. Besides one entire building, three large motor trucks, large stocks of grease and oils, and many valuable papers were destroyed. The loss now is estimated at the full $50,000, fully covered by insurance. Most middle-aged Londoners are slightly deaf, due, it is said, to the continuous roar of traffic. before buying, because any treatment of recharging other than the normal way of passing a current through it is harmful and is sure to shorten the life of the battery."
