DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READEERS But when men think they most in safety stand, The greatest peril often is at hand. Drayton. The path of honor and integrity creates no apprehensions, breeds no remorse, inspires no regrets and entails no misery. The Nation's forests are being denuded with no reserve supply of timber coping on for the future. The urgent need of reforesting is obvious. A few more bandits taken dead or alive—preferably dead—might slow up the "crime wave" in Southern California. The law's grimness should be felt more. The baseball season is opening without any taint of crookedness or scandal in any direction. It promises to be a great year for this ever-popular game. Voting for public improvements for Anaheim is voting to keep it in the company of the wideawake, progressive cities of this state and section.

There would be less speeding if more speeders were sent to jail and were kept there long enough to make a sorrowful impression on them. Unemployment is decreasing all over the country — excepting of course, in those industries where it is highest. CHARACTER SKETCH OF HERBERT C. HOOVER A few observations on the personality of Herbert C. Hoover, gathered on the occasion of his visit to Southern California: A countenance ingenious, unmarred by craftiness. A face almost boyish, at first glance. No grimness is written there, but the placidity of his Quaker ancestry is apparent. Yet he can be grim on occasion, as was the good Quaker in "Uncle Tom's Cabin" who foiled the ruffian lawyer. Mr. Hoover is ultra-simple in dress, in manners, in speech. No suspicion of pomp or ostentatiousness about him. Exteriorly, just the average American business or professional man. Nothing in dress, looks or bearing to distinguish him as the man of genius. He talks slowly, in public speaking, sometimes haltingly — at no time with the gestures or the modulated tone of the polished orator. His voice seldom rises above the conversational. If it were not for his personality and his fame, he would be considered rather dry and prosy as a speaker. In this he reminds one of the late John Sherman who was lame and halting as an orator, but whose profound knowledge of finance and economics ranked him among the greatest financiers this country ever has produced. Men like John Sherman and Herbert C. Hoover do not juggle words. They use no rhetorical artifices. They do not ping-pong with Wimbledons, and apostrophes, and ciple or they go to the heart of a that open diplomacy, common mean the exclusion of冷漠.” The secret intriguing the old-time diplomacy is passing.

Unemployment is decreasing all over the country — excepting of course, in those industries where there is a strike. With probability that the coal strike soon will be ended, the economic outlook is reassuring. The growing of grapes is one of the very profitable industries in California. So much money has been made by growers in the last few years, that many have been impelled to plant vineyards. California produces grapes of superior quality and the industry promises to be important permanently. Human nature and the nature of nations—the nation is but a collection of individual human natures—cannot be changed over night. It is too altruistic to hope or to expect that there never again will be war clouds in the sky—that there never again will be the menace of conflict. But it is reasonable to hope that, should hostilities arise, they may be restricted and that another world war can be averted. It is reasonable to hope that the world gradually but surely can be moved along toward the will to be at peace. knowledge of finance and economies ranked him among the greatest financiers this country ever has produced.

But it should not be succeeded by a reckless school of diplomacy that would talk too much. Democracies should not slander each other, or arouse antagonisms by expressing distrust of each other. “When two men misunderstand each other,” said Mr. Root, “their troubles usually can be settled by getting them together to talk things over; that is just what happened in the four-power treaty.” Mr. Root made the pertinent suggestion that “it is our duty so to direct the foreign relations of our country that the power of public opinion shall be for peace.” Quite right. And there should be discountenancing of mischievous agitation which would set public opinion in this country against friendly powers. Stirring of suspicions and rousing of prejudices against any nation or people should be condemned. By following that road America would become a breeder of hatred and malice and the spirit of war, rather than the disseminator of good will, understanding and the attitude of peace. J. E.

Comments of the Press What Editors Are Saying STUDENTS AND RIOTING—Berkeley (Cal.) Gazette There is no more effective way to strengthen one's wavering optimism about the progress of the human race and its civilization than to take an occasional backward glance at some phase of the "good old days." Dr. Albert Mansbridge of England, lecturing in the East on "The Mediaeval University," enables one to take such a look at student life in the early days of English and continental universities. There is no need to repeat the harsh criticisms which have been made of present-day American students. If the worst things said against them were true, however—and of course the worst is never true—they would still show up fairly well with those mediaeval students. Says Dr. Mansbridge: "Students rioted whenever they were displeased or offended, as their effected by the ladies of ancient Rome, is a comeo medallion with several strings of beads dangling below it. The typical "flapper" earring is a long, slender drop of jet with a glittering jet ball at the end. Most striking of all is the "Asiatic" design, a large, round medallion of metal or celophant fitting flat against the side of the hat, and trailing half a dozen strings of irregularly shaped beads on either side. THE SONG OF THE DEAD We have fed our sea for a thousand years And she calls us, still unfed. Though there's never a wave of all her waves But marks our English dead; We have scrawled our best to the weed's unrest. To the shark and the sheering gull, If blood be the price of admiralty, Lord God, we ha' paid in full! There's never a flood goes shoreward now But lifts a keel we manned; There's never an ebb goes seaward now. But rops our dead on the sand— But sinks our dead on the sands When a girl leaves a fellow, she always looks back to see if she can catch him looking back to see if she is looking back.

There wouldn't be so much trouble in life, once said Luke McLuke, if you would take as good care of your stomach as you do of your face. One of the most exclusive shops on the Avenue is showing such a style in printed crepe-de-chine. The rounded throat line is finished with a lace collar. The elbow length sleeves are fulfilled a trifle by a ribbon run thru the hem and tied in a small bow. Inch-wide ribbon is caught loosely about the belt and tied in a rosette at the left side. Several streamers hang half way down the skirt. Imagination developed the same model to look exactly like a primrose. The material, also printed crepe, was in different yellow tones. The skirt was fashioned in petal flounces, three tiers to the skirt. The bodice was tight fitting and the short sleeves ended in petal frills. Flources and frills, as well as the neck line and edge of the bodice were piped with leaf green. A little bunch of satin primroses were pinner at the corsage. Still another style was contrived from blue taffeta with trimming of wool embroidering in rolling scroll design. The trimming outlined a bolero effect on the blouse and rolled round the hips on the skirt. The saah was a wide fold of taffeta which tied at the left side in a big sydyw.

POLITICAL AGE NEW YORK, April 8.—Volunteer juries will decide in the future what plays are proper for New York to see and what are not; and the producers will abide by their decision. Such, at least, is the arrangement which has just been accepted by the Producing Managers' Association. Playwrights, actors and all the others interested went on record last week as approving the idea. Just what will happen to the volunteers when they get started in on the job, no one seems assured. There may be perils ahead for men and women who have here-toore led peaceful lives. The latest suggestion by way of stopping our crime wave is based upon the fact that practically every story of a holdup or killing ends "The gunman got away in a high-powered automobile." The suggestion is, therefore, that immediately upon the commitment of the robbery, a signal be given by police sirens which can be heard considerable distance, and that all automobile traffic be instantly stopped. Any driver who seemed disinclined to stop on signal would be under suspicion, and at least flight would be made difficult. After the capture had been made, an "all clear" whistle would be sounded as it was in London when an air raid was over, and traffic could go on its way. The largest salt water pool in the world is being built in the Hotel Commonwealth, now going up at Fifty-fifth., Fifty-sixth, streets, Broadway and Seventh avenue. This pool, which will be 90 by 50 feet will have a depth of 12 feet at one end and will be of wading depth at the other. It will be subdivided in such a way that the children stopping in the hotel can bathe in it with perfect safety. The Commonwealth Club, which is an important part of the cooperative scheme of the hotel, will manage the pool. Adjoining this will be one of the largest gymnasiums in the city. As and milliners are keeping them on hand and declaring them the proper finishing touch to one's outfit. They cost more than a walking stick, too. More than 1,000 actors and actresses will appear in the annual show of the Actors' Equity Association at the Metropolitan Opera House on the evening of May 7. Every skyscraper has a pulse which anyone can feel for himself, an architect explained the other day. "It's a sign of strength, not of weakness," he said, "when a tall building vibrates in the wind. It shows that the structure can stand all kinds of strains. The pressure of the wind on the broad walls is enormous, of course. Allowance is made for the steel frame to move a little under pressure. Otherwise it would weaken." America needs the tea-drinking habit, insists H. Gordon Selfridge, owner of the biggest department store in London, who was born in Wisconsin and got his business training with Marshall Field in Chicago. Mr. Selfridge who arrived here the other day for a family visit, says that when he first went to London he thought as other Americans do that tea-drinking in business houses was an inefficient waste of time. Now, he says, he's for it strong. "Personally, I don't like tea," he explained. "But I like what it stands for—a friendly getting together, a relaxing pause in the day's work, a slowing down of the American's relentless push not to a point of becoming less active but more balanced. The American has a nervous breakdown at fifty. The Englishman is swinging a wicked golf club at sixty-five. I'll say that's best, don't you?"
