DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS Of all the passions that possess mankind, The love of novelty rules most the mind; In search of this, from realm to realm we roam, Our fleets come fraught with every folly home. Adverrity is a stern, but a wholesome disciplinarian. Cultivate an appetite for strong and clean thinking. A good deed—a deed for a choice piece of California real estate. If Congress always mixed brains and speed with its legislation! Women win more by their smiles and tears than by their arguments. Let's make California safe for universal literacy by driving all the illiteracy out before 1930. In dealing fairly and honestly with others, one gives one's own conscience a square deal. No resolution, by individual or nation, rises above the will-power and the conscience back of it. The promises of liberal after-war treatment, made American World War veterans in 1917 and 1918, should not be forgotten or go unredeemed. ENVOY AT WASHINGTON FOR CANADA The new government in Canada will appoint a high commissioner with full ambassadorial powers, to represent the Dominion at Washington, it is said. The Canadian press has expressed deep disappointment that the Dominion did not have distinct diplomatic representation at Washington to participate in the Arms Conference. Now that the St. Lawrence river deep waterway project is before both the United States and the Canadian governments, it is felt across the border, that Canada should have a strong direct diplomatic representative at Washington to speak firsthand for that government in negotiations over the proposed deepening of a waterway from the Great Lakes to the Atlantic and other important matters. Canada has statutes authorizing the appointment of a full-power envoy to Washington and this course would not be opposed by the mother country. In truth, there is reason to believe that the London government would welcome a step of this nature on the part of Canada, as it would simplify the work of the British embassy at Washington. For Canada to have its own high commissioner, ranking as an ambassador, at Washington, would be exceptionally pleasing to the government and the people of the United States on grounds of friendly sentiment. Relations between the two governments would thus be more direct and their negotiations would be more prompt and more satisfactory.

Center Corner Philadelphia CABBAGE AND BOOZE MAKE FATAL MEAL LOS ANGELES, Feb. 2.—Two men participated in a midnight contest to see who could eat the most sauerkraut and bacon and, incidentally, drink the most bootleg whiskey. The race was fatal for one of them, according to the police. The body of Anton Schatz, 30, a cook, was found hanging over the foot of a bed in an East Fourth street rooming house today by W. Graf, the other participant in the death race. According to Detectives Davis and Parsons, Schatz evidently died from wood alcohol poisoning. FLOWERS PREVENT FIGHTS, IS CLAIM CHICAGO, Feb. 2. — Surround yourself with the right flowers and avoid friction with your neighbors. That is the advice of Miss Irene Hayes, a "flower artist." "Flowers have much to do with harmonious living," she said. "The right blooms can do a lot of good and the wrong ones a lot of mischief.

SOCIAL CLUB DANCE WAS GREAT SUCCESS GARDEN GROVE, Feb. 2. — The Social club of Garden Grove entertained about 80 guests at the Round Table club house in Placentia last Friday evening. A good many of the couples enjoyed the evening by dancing, while those who didn't participate in that pleasure spent the evening playing cards. At 11 o'clock a chicken supper was served, after which there was more dancing. A rising vote of thanks was given Mrs. Walter Bastian, who was chairman of the entertainment committee, for a most enjoyable evening. It is hoped that the same committee will arrange more such good times in the future.

New York Letter The largest diamond ever found in the Western Hemisphere was brought into the port of New York the other day on a vessel from South and Central American ports by W. J. Lavae, a prospector for the Smithsonian Institute. Mr. Lavae was treasuring it so closely—and one would hardly blame him for that—that he wouldn't show it to the public nor allow it to be photographed. He tried to console the disappointed populace by telling them that as it was still in the rough, it wasn't so very pretty anyhow. It was found by a native digger in the interior of British Guiana. At last! New York is rising to make a fight for her most valued treasure—that same port of New York and its business and the waterways of the state which allow the country's produce to be brought here. The New York state waterways conference committee, with John D. Dunlop, chairman, has announced a vigorous campaign to acquaint the shipers of the country with the value of the Barge Canal which allows the products of the Middle West to be brought here at low cost, and with the danger in the project presented by those who would divert the trade of that country to a foreign port and practically destroy the harbor of New York. "New York's waterways are waiting ready to transport the greater bulk of the commerce of the nation," Mr. Dunlop said, "and my committee intends to fight until the producers of the nation realize what this means to them and to the country, and not only to New York city and state." Civic and commercial bodeis all over the state have joined with the committee in its educational crusade. We have a new sculptor in our city, as yet comparatively unknown, but fated for fame someday. Ruotolo is his name and he is a dweller of that gathering place of your artists—Greenwich Village. He has done remarkable conceptions of the heads of Dreiser, Caruso, Bervovici, and one of Dante. The Westchester Woman' club, one of the most exclusive social organizations in the Metropolitan district, is not going to leave all of the law-enforcement to the police. Not only has it announced a determination to prosecute all who violate the club rules, which provide that no liquor may be served on the premises, but its members have declared that anybody who comes there and looks as though he had a bottle on his hip will be searched. The custom of "carrying their own" was having a demoralizing effect upon some of the guests the women stated. The oldest man in New York city is James Murray, who at the age of 107 is on duty daily at the gate of Trinity Cemetery. Two months ago a telephone message to the superintendent announced that he would be unable to come to work for two days because he had slipped and fallen. All mourned for the old man, as no one believed that he would be able to survive the shock. Yet in two days he was back on the job and has not missed a day since. "Bluebeard's Eighth Wife" will soon leave the Ritz Theatre and start out on the road leaving New York regretfully. This clever comedy which had some unaccurate publicity being improper, deceived those who first went to it drawn by just those rumors and delighted those who had expected to disapprove. It turned out to have real humor and excellent acting and to stay quite within the bounds of good taste. After all, the exigencies of breadwinning do sometimes curb one's temperament and cramp one's style. Outside of a large office building the other day, two young girls stopped and consulted the want ad section of the newspaper they held. "This is the place," said the taller, "You wait here." Then she pulled the long green earrings out of her ears, wiped her lips of a large part of their carmine, removed a little of the same from her cheeks, put her hat straighter on her head and entered the building of business and austerity. Her friend waited. Pretty soon, she returned. "Job's taken," she announced. Then she fastened her earrings back in place, remodeled her complexion, snapped her hat into a tilt again and the two sauntered off. From Farmer to Consumer DAIRY FEEDS J. E. SCHUMACHER CO. Opp. S.

Mayor Shanks Starts School for Policemen INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 2. — Lew Shank, erstwhile vaudeville comedian, who answered an encore to the mayor’s office here, has started to teach his policemen the three R’s of education—readin’, ‘ritin’ and ‘rith-metic. “Very mild,” said the former potato mayor, in describing the educational course for his blue coats. There will be regular afternoon and evening classes. “We have got to have policemen who can make out reports someone can read,” the new mayor said. “Why some of these men don’t know how to spell four-letter words.” “We don’t want a hard examination—just something like they have in the 4th or 5th grades in school. But we’re going to make them pass an examination and we’ll have a real school teacher that knows the stuff.” and Mrs. D. C. Shirley and W. W. Blair and family. Mr. and Mrs. S. W.
