Government should be without waste. Trees are beautiful and impressive as memorials. Take time to rest, or soon you may be taking your long rest in the narrow home. Things would seem normal in national politics if Mr. Bryan should re-enter the arena. The trouble at Washington is, a superfluity of politicians and a scarce city of statesmen. The baseball season is open again, and father, if he comes home late to dinner, has a perfect alibi. Mollycoddling criminals by good-intentioned, but misguided persons, puts a premium upon crime. To be admired is the person who, in the hour of great good fortune, does not have swelling of the head. Living beyond one's means is a standing invitation for hard times to move in and abide a long, long while. The girl who is a good cook and a good housekeeper and who has a good disposition seldom is left "waiting at the church." PROTECTION IN TARiff FOR CALIFORNIA California products figure prominently in the Fordney tariff bill—the administration measure just reported to the Senate. The bill as reported to the Senate. The bill as reported may be changed as to details—doubtless it will be. But that a generous degree of protection will be accorded California products seems assured, as members of the California delegation in Congress have worked and will continue to work to this end. Among the products of California which are recommended for tariff protection are: Ralsins; lemons (unchanged at 2 cents the pound); oranges (unchanged at 1 cent the pound); grapefruit, preserved figs, fresh or dried dates, ripe or stuffed olives, almonds, walnuts, quicksilver, sugar beets. Crude oil is placed on the free list. Finished moving-picture films (of direct interest to California, where so many of them are produced) would come in at 3 cents a foot; raw films at one-half cent a foot. Another growing California industry—cotton-growing—comes in for protection. Long staple cotton—much of which is produced in California and Arizona—is given 7 cents a pound protection. Rice, produced in Central and Northern California, is given lessened protection, but this may be increased. The tariff debate will last perhaps sixty to ninety days. Inasmuch as the measure has the backing of the administration and inasmuch as Republicans safely control both houses of Congress, the bill probably will go through substantially as reported. Now that the criminal action against Roscoe (Fatty) Arbuckle has come to a verdict on the third trial, resulting in the prompt acquittal of the comedian on the manslaughter charge, it is in order for the pro-town in Raleigh.

Living beyond one's means is a standing invitation for hard times to move in and abide a long, long while. The girl who is a good cook and a good housekeeper and who has a good disposition seldom is left "waiting at the church." The Washington government at any rate is not precipitate about recognizing the government of General Obregon in Mexico. A high-tempered or a criminally-inclined person has no business with a pistol. These types of men should be deprived of weapons. If the desperate criminal were treated more with the mailed fist and coddled less with the gloved hand, there would be fewer crimes. Sir Conan Doyle talks of the spirit world as jauntly as though it were London or Land's End.

Now that the criminal action against Roscoe (Fatty) Arbuckle has come to a verdict on the third trial, resulting in the prompt acquittal of the comedian on the manslaughter charge, it is in order for the producers of moving pictures to give special attention to the cleansing of this great industry. The jury in this notorious case has cleared the accused of the criminal charge. But neither the jury nor the public has condoned drunken revel and debauchery, nor are such things pardonable and tolerable by those engaged in making pictures, any more than they are decent and tolerable among any other element in society. Conscientious producers should collaborate with Will H. Hays, prominent churchman and a man of high standing, and prestige throughout the country, in forbidding, once for all, disgraceful revels and scandalous conduct on the part of actors and actresses engaged in making pictures, on penalty of abrogation of their contracts and loss of position in filmdom. The public would appreciate this and would show its appreciation in substantial manner. The Muscle Shoals project is beginning to breed scandal. "The powers that be," at Washington, should take the people into their confidence in considering bids. The people's interests, not selfish special interests, should be given paramount consideration in Washington. WISE AND WITTY Never have your troubles half-soled.

NOAH WEBSTER Mr. Frank Frame, manager of the Bay Hotel and annex, has been slightly incarnacitated the last few New York Letter At Larry Jensen Price NEW YORK, April 15.—Are you planning to "settle down" when you get to be a mere sixty years or so? Take inspiration from Miss Celeste J. Miller, who stopped off here the other day on her way home to Chicago after a trip around the world. Miss Miller is 74 years old, has just completed her sixth trip around the world, and as soon as she has had time to catch her breath and get some clothes made, is going to start on her seventh. She travels alone, with a trusty cane for protection and she says it has never failed her. Three well known downtown brokers are going to find a permanent place in the records of Wall street, if their fellowbrokers can find a place to hang a picture of them where they can't tear it down. Now, if there anything in the world that a broker is supposed to know, according to all tradition, it is a "sucker," and that has some, bearing on the story. The three went fishing in Connecticut last week and came away with a fine string of what they supposed were brook trout. A photographer took their pictures without disillusioning them, and it was not until they got back home and started boosting that they got the oath of piscatorial experts to the fact that the string held suckers and nothing else. Ethel Barrymore in "As You Like It." That is one of the promises for next season which brings a glow to the heart. While on the road in "Declassee," Miss Barrymore is preparing for the ever-appealing role of Rosalind. Sidney Blackmer as Romeo is another Shakespearean rumor for next year. Among the new things in novelty jewelry shown in the shops are bracelets of black silk from which hang bunches of grape in jade, lapis or coral.

He is to stay at home evenings English in his father John Ford Mechanism Much Improved The Ford Motor Company, Detroit has just made public a list of recent improvements in the mechanical features of Ford cars. Asserting that Ford cars are better today than they ever have been before, the statement adds that fuel consumption is lower; the engine is even more efficient than formerly; improvements in the springs and steering apparatus insure easier riding and driving qualities; a new head lamp lens, which complies with all state laws, improves the road light; and that many other minor improvements have been made. Ford Pistons and connecting rods have been re-designed and are matched for weight before assembling into motors. This reduces vibration and gives the motor a quicker pick-up. The new pistons weigh three-quarters of a pound less than those formerly used. A highly polished crank shaft bearing surface also reduces wear and added to the piston and connecting rod improvements, insures a smoother running and better balanced motor. The material used in the Ford crankshaft and the care and precision in its manufacture make it second to none. The new Ford carburetor gives increased acceleration. Though not radically different from the carburetor previously used, the new construction improves the all-around performance of the motor, giving it a quicker pick-up and a greater flexibility of action. The wiring system has been completely-designed, and while it costs more to install than the old system, it is most efficient, proof of which is evidenced by the fact that it affords a fire insurance rate as low as the higher priced cars on the market. Many other changes have been made: A 16-in. steering wheel is now standard equipment; Timken roller bearings are used in the front wheels; one-piece pressed steel running-board brackets insure body rigidity and eliminate vibration and body noises; a dash weather-trough prevents rain from reaching col terminals or dash wiring; the steering mechanism has also been improved; and the tools supplied to purchasers of Ford cars have also been improvied.

Some folks in the town seem to be laboring under the impression that the best way to relieve the housing situation is to get a divorce. AN AMAZING FIX Some hae meat and canna cat, Is told us in tradition. But how the howling, whooping heck Did they get in that condition? —Tennyson J. Daft, in K. C. Star. Editor Town in Review: The gang may possibly get a laugh out of this one: A Wall Street broker was the father of a small family which he rarely was able to see, as he was too engrossed in making a fortune. One night, however, he was to stay home and take care of the several young offsprings alone. The next morning his wife asked him if he underwent any difficulties. "Oh," he said, "I got them all to bed O. K. except that little red-headed one. I had to lick her before she'd go." "Why John!' his wife exclaimed. 'That isn't our child. She lives across the street." HERE'S ONE FOR YOU TO PUZZLE OVER STENOGRAPHER WANTED — Must wear 4B shoe. Apply 803 Sycamore street.—From an adv. in a Cincinnati paper. Isn't it about time for somebody to start a male suffrage movement? Court again stands adjourned. Among the new things in novelty jewelry shown in the shops are bracelets of black silk from which hang bunches of grape in jade, lapis or coral. John Godino got a novel sentence in a Brooklyn police court the other day. He is to stay at home evenings and teach English to his father. John, who is 18, had refused to stop smoking in the rear car of a Cony Island train. A special officer of the Rapid Transit company had him arrested. When he was arraigned in court, his father stepped forward and tried to intercede for him but could not make himself understood because he knew no English. When John told the magistrate that his father had been in this country 18 years, the judge decided it was time the son gave him a little of his time and attention, and the sentence was pronounced. There are many reports of death "from natural causes," but a policeman turned in a report the other day of a fire "from natural causes." It was in a men's furnishing shop at 503 East 16th street, and it was caused by the sun's rays shining through a magnifying glass in the show window and setting fire to a display of umbrellas. The old Gracie mansion, one of New York's beautiful and best-known homes of its early days, will be preserved and turned into a museum. A group of women have succeeded in having the legislature pass a bill putting the custody of the house into the hands of the Patriotic New Yorkers, of which Mrs. John King Van Renselaer is president. The Gracie home was built in 1799, and was the country home of Archibald Gracie, who was host there to the exiled King Louis Phillipe of France, General Lafayette, and scores of famous men from all over the world. It overlooks Hell Gate at the highest point of Carl Schurz Park in what is now a completely built up part of the city. Many other changes have been made; A 16-in, steering wheel is now standard equipment; Tmken roller bearings are used in the front wheels; one-piece pressed steel running-board brackets insure body rigidity and eliminate vibration and body noises; a dash weather-tough prevents rain from reaching coil terminals or dash wiring; the steering mechanism has also been improved; and the tools supplied to purchasers of Ford cars have also been improved in quality. Another important improvement in the truck chassis is the adoption of cord tires as standard equipment on the rear wheels. The change made some time ago in the seating arrangement of the touring car has met with widespread approval. By lowering the seats and altering the seat backs, greater comfort was added. It is pointed out that retail sales of a million cars and trucks yearly, and the consumption of raw and finished products at a cost of approximately one million dollars a day makes it possible to sell Fords at their present low prices and at the same time to produce a car of exceptionally high quality.

AUTO CLUB PLANS SAFE DRIVER BADGE Safe automobile drivers thruout So. Calif. are going to be labelled. If you are a safe driver, Mr. Motorist, you will carry a green and white label in the lower right hand corner of the windshield of your car, according to the latest plan of the safety department of the Auto Club of So. Calif. But you will do more than this to further the club's big campaign to cut down recklessness of motorists in the southern counties. You will also sign a pledge when you are given your emblem which commits you to safe driving. This plan is to be put into operation simultaneously in the 13 southern of the state through the county offices of the Auto club. More than 68,000 motors are going to be supplied with the new "stickers". Here is what the pledge says: "In return for the So. Calif. safe driver's windshield emblem furnished by the public safety department of the Auto Club of So. Calif., I agree to drive carefully at all times, familiarize myself with the city and state traffic regulations and then observe them. "I will do all I can to set a good example by being courteous on the road, and I further agree that when I dispose of this car I will remove the safe driver's emblem." These windshield emblem stickers and the pledges will be available next week at the Auto club headquarters and at any club branch office. Motorists may obtain them upon request, and they will also be distributed in an effort to further the general safety movement in this part of the state. Bastanchury ranch, A. J.

Continue Free Battery Inspection "Strong as it may seem, there are very few car owners who ever think of going to a responsible electrical equipment station to have their electrical equipment tested, cleaned, adjusted and put in good shape," says F. G. West of West Brbs., Vesta battery distributors for Orange-co. "Such an important task as this ought to be done at least twice a year, and ought not be left to the ordinary garage man. "Care of the electrical system means a great deal more than just care of the battery. No battery works alone, nor is it alone responsible for the working of the electrical part of your car. When it is in service it is only one part of the electrical circuit or closed path around which electricity must always travel. "Another part is the generator. When starting, another is the motor. Then there is the distributor, the coil, the wires, and even the steel frame of the chassis by which the current finishes its circles of travel. "Here is what happens when you start: The instant you put your foot on the starting button you close a switch so that current can flow from battery to starting motor. The starting motor begins to turn, spinning the engine. If you have also closed the ignition switch you allow current to flow to coil and distributor and finally to the spark plugs. "Your engine now turns under its own power. The starting motor is automatically disengaged. Current from the generator is being supplied to the battery, so that it will be there available for light, start and ignition. "There are not a great many things that can happen to an electrical system and almost all come from one of three causes: One is looseness, another is dirt, and the third is wear." West Bros. will gladly inspect your electric system free of charge. PURDY JOINS FRANKLIN FORCES A. W.
