DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS
How mean the order and perfection sought
In the best product of the human thought.
Compared to the great harmony that reigns
In what the spirit of the world ordains.
Cheerfulness and courage rob misfortune of half its terrors.
All that nations have to do to prevent wars, is to live the Golden Rule, in spirit and in truth.
Another objection which might be raised to the electoral college is that it has no football team.
Make a betterment of criminal-court procedure by barring out the morbidly curious from sensational triale.
On some issues in Congress patriotism should have the front of the stage, and politics should take a back seat.
A mean little quirk in human nature is that which prompts silence when there is something good to be said of some one, but suddenly finds vociferous voice when there is something disparaging to say.
Governor Stephens has proclaimed "California Honey Week," February 8-11. This state last year produced one pound of honey of every seven produced in the United States. This is only one of the many sweet things that truthfully may be said of California.
SAILOR TO DIRECTOR OF STANDARD OIL
Another of the romances of spectacular rise to position and fortune, common here in democratic America, has come to light in the election of A. B. Brooks of San Francisco, to a dictatorship in the Standard Oil Company. After coming to California in 1864, Mr. Brooks was a sailor before the mast of an Arctic whaling vessel. Later he was a common laborer and not until 1890 did he rise to a foremanship. For the last sixteen years Mr. Brooks has been purchasing agent for the Standard.
This career impresses two great facts about life in America. It impresses, first of all, the fact that there are so many men of lowly birth and of limited opportunities who are not content to lead a drab, ambitionless existence, but who apply all their talents toward bettering their fortunes and expanding their respective fields of activity and usefulness.
And the second fact impressed in, that the ambitious, capable poor man can get on if he will. The notion often voiced by the shiftless that a poor man has no show—Ibthat no man can get on with a big corporation unless he has a "pull"—to use the common expression—is a mistaken, false notion. The Standard Oil Company, the United States Steel Corporation, the great railroad systems—all the great industrial and transportation concerns of the country have taken poor men who have had no backing and no special claims to preferment except their own talent and their own energy, and have advanced them to great power and great riches, in many instances.

WATER REPORT MAY NOT BE READY WED.
The water conservation committee of the county probably will not be able to ask endorsement by the Associated Chambers of Commerce, at the meeting in Yorba Linda Wednesday evening of the proposed plan for a county-wide protection district or similar organization. This is learned from a member of the special committee appointed at the general committee's last meeting to consider the feasibility of the county organization.
The special committee consulted with Horace C. Head, Santa Ana attorney, regarding the law involved, and found, it is understood, that no law existed on the statute books at present which fitted exactly the sort of water protection and conservation organization proposed.
Even if such an organization is started, however, it will not be permanent, but will merely pave the way in Orange-co for the work which the division of engineering and irrigation of the state department of public works will carry out, following the completion of the state-wide investigation of water powers and resources now in progress under the direction of 14 different engineers.
Edward G. Sheibley of Los Angeles is a consulting engineer for the investigation in So Calif., and accompanied the members of the water conservation committee in their second visit to Prado on the Santa Ana Talbert and Santiago Creek day. Sheibley said the construction of a dam there according to plans of C. E. Utt of Tustin was a great and important project, but refused to commit himself, it is said, to recommending it as yet. He will be present at the Yorba Linda meeting of the Associated Chambers.
Sheibley also will be here tomorrow, to consult with the heads of the Anaheim Union Water Co., and in Santa Ana the same day with Santa Ana Development Co. officials.

SERVICE MEN WILL SUPPORT BRINKOP
The Republican candidacy of Walter Brinkop, prominent in the American Legion activities in Los Angeles, will receive strong support in Orange co., from which hundreds of present Legion members were recruited to join the 364th Infantry. Brinkop was captain of the machine gun company of the regiment. More than 100 men from Annaheim alone, according to County Commander William P. Webb, Jr., of the Legion, were associated with Brinkop in this regiment.
Brinkop also helped to organize Anaheim Post, No. 72, of the Legion.
His campaign is going forward rapidly and "Brinkop for Treasurer" committees and clubs have been started in more than 40 cities and towns in the state up to this time.
His election is said by many Republican political leaders to be very probable.
Brinkop expected to come here on his state-wide tour, but was unable to arrange it.
He is a Missourian born in 1835. He has lived in the state since 1910. He was a captain in the 3644th Infantry from May 12, 1917 to May 12, 1919, serving in the St. Mihiel Mouse-Argonne and Ypres-Lys offensive in France and Belgium. He was awarded the Croig de Guerre of Belgium, recommended for the Distinguished Service Cross and cited by General Pershing for distinguished gallantry in action.
He served two terms as commander of Los Angeles Post, No. 8, American Legion.

ELLEN BEACH YAW
YORBA LINDA, Jan. 23.—(Spl.)
Mr. and Mrs. Carl H. Seamons and Mr. Joseph Sanchez were delightfully entertained Sunday afternoon at the home of Mme Phoebe Ara White at Lark Ellen near Covina. During the afternoon they all by invitation visited the celebrated studio home of Ellen Beach Yaw where musicians and friends were gathered from Los Angeles and New York city.
Mme Yaw sang many of her favorite songs and operas and invited Mr. Sanchez also to favor the company. As soon as she heard him she was delighted with his voice and he was asked again and again. All stitched formality was laid aside and every one felt at east in the home of California's Nightingale, one of the world's greatest singers. Mr. Sol Cohen, first violinist of the Philharmonic orchestra of Los Angeles also favored the gathering with several very fine numbers and the occasion become a most delightful concert of rare character.
Mme Yaw, Mme White and Mrs. Seamans have been close friends for several years which made the afternoon even a greater pleasure to all present.
FEAR MAKES LIFE QUITE WORTH LIVING
LONDON, Jan. 23.—"Fear makes life worth living." Sir R. Armstrong-Jones, leading physician, told an audience of doctors in a lecture.
"Without it, life would be insipid."
"There are more than 140 classes of fear to choose from, including fear of the dark, of heights, of open or closed spaces, of over-large or over-small rooms, of spiders, rats and mice. Fears are often inherited."
"There are several grades of fear—apprehension, anxiety, terror or fright. They may be shown by flight, bungnacity or concealment, and can be induced by suggestions or imitation."
"The frightfulness of the Germans on the occupied areas was simply suggestion."
"The best way to eradicate fear is to assume a normal appearance. That is why a chauffeur drives better in a dangerous thoroughfare with a cigar between his lips, ad why a youth whistles while going past a cemetery night."
ATTEMPT TO AVOID HATED HOME WORK
LONDON, Jan. 23.—British parents have begun a campaign to end the hated "homework" that teachers here, in common with those of the United States, impose on their juvenile pupils.
An "indignant father," as he signaled himself, wrote a letter to a London newspaper complaining that his small son's teacher insisted on all their pupils—8 to 10 years old—doing a nightly collection of home-made; build that garage, and even that chicken coop.
PREACH THIS EVERYWHERE, PUT IT INTO EVERY AND REMEMBER THAT THERE IS SOMETHING NITELLY HIGHER AND MORE IMPORTANT THAN SMALL AMOUNT OF MONEY INVOLVED WHICH THINK YOU COULD SAVE BY WAITING.
Some men put off the day of salvation, expecting to act it on their death bed, but not many ever succeed in doing that hour.
"Do It Now and Do It With All Your Might"

ATTEMPT TO AVOID HATED HOME WORK
LONDON, Jan. 23.—British parents have begun a campaign to end the hated "homework" that teachers here, in common with those of the United States, impose on their juvenile pupils.
An "indignant father," as he signaled himself, wrote a letter to a London newspaper complaining that his small son's teacher insisted on all her pupils—8 to 10 years old—doing a nightly collection of homework that took the child in question at least three hours to do.
The letter caused an avalanche of complaints from parents that filled the correspondence columns of the papers for a week. The teachers replied that homework was necessary if teachers were to attempt to instruct on the basis of the modern curriculum outlined by boards of education.
The newspapers are demanding that all homework be eliminated.
Exchange of Products Is Plan in Saxonia
BERLIN, Jan. 21.—Nationwide exchange of products between farmers and industrials will result if the first joint conference of the Saxonian peasants league and Saxon potash nitrogen and coal industrialists, need to exchange their respective products, the peasants delivering pooes, flour and other farm products.

WOMEN, TOO, RULED IN BABYLON CITY
PARIS, Jan. 23.—The ruins of a Babylonian city dating back 2000 years before the Christian era, have been discovered at Koisa Nyek, Asia Minor.
The city was named Burus; it seems to have been one of the earliest homes of feminism, if not, indeed, of woman's emancipation.
The ruins prove that the community which lived there was partly military and partly commercial.
Cuneiform inscriptions give many odd details of the organization of the city, which was governed by a prince and a prefect, assisted by a princess and a woman prefect, whose powers are said to have been precisely equal to those of their male colleagues.
Records of a regular postal delivery service have been found, the letters being written on baked tiles of a circular shape. References to

In line with similar campaigns now under way in other counties, steps will be taken to enforce rigidly the law, which requires that motor vehicle headlights shall not cast rays higher than 42 inches above the ground at a distance of 100 feet ahead of the car.
An early form of the bank check system has been discovered, a bearer check being found which contains instructions to the addressee to pay to the person named in it a stated sum.
