DAILY GREETING TO READERS
Oh! ask not, hope thou not too much
Of sympathy below:
Few are the hearts whence one same
touch
Bids the sweet fountain flow.
—Mrs. Hemans.
Should another war be brewed in Europe, it will be strictly home brew.
Lady Astor has good sense as well as high station—a combination not always found.
Diplomacy cannot be half-lie and half-truth and be respected. There should be honesty and candor in diplomacy.
Immigration laws should be sufficiently restrictive to keep dangerous anarchists and vicious agitators out of this country.
The only alliance into which Uncle Sam enters is an alliance with a good conscience, "void of offense toward God and man."
There is a big controversy in President Harding's cabinet and there are those who opine that one member is due for a Fall.
Liberty Bonds have come up to Uncle Sam's promises. There is no better security in the world than the good old U. S. A.
The airship is designed to play important part in transportational development. But it will not take the place of the auto or the railroad train.

CIVIL CONFLICT RAGES IN CHINA
China is amassing a great volume of trouble of a kind which belies that country's traditional reputation for being peaceful. Truth is, China has been peaceful only as to other countries. Internally, it has had many wars. Civil strife has been pronounced frequently all down through the long centuries of China's existence.
The Chinese are not a homogeneous people. Among the 400,000,000 population of that ancient land, there are diverse types, many of them antagonistic to each other, and at no time fully assimilated by national spirit and common ideals and purposes. North and South China long have been hostile politically.
Civil war there at present is assuming menacing proportions. Armies are in the field and definite plans for war are laid. So powerful is the uprising, President Hsu may be forced to give up his office before his term expires, eighteen months hence.
It is to be hoped that this civil conflict soon may collapse. Other uprisings in China in the past have sprung up with threatening vigor, only to wilt, in short order, like Jonah's gourd. For the good of China it is hoped that this domestic strife soon may wilt.
MR. McADOO URGES HIGH BAR STANDARDS
William G. McAdoo, recently come to California to practice his profession, is an earnest advocate of high standards among lawyers. He endorses the movement to raise the educational qualifications of members of the bar. He says that too many young men have been admitted to the bar without a suitable education background.

Sacramento may not be misgoverned—there is no evidence to indicate to the outside world that it is. But it surely is over-governed. Two municipal governments at one and the same time for one municipality is overdoing the governing business. Sacramento, too, has the state government in its "midst." In a word, government up there seems to be the whole bill of fare, from soup to nuts.
Is a certain Chicago girl of marked eccentricities going to marry a certain Chicago young man, after leaving him "waiting at the church" on four or five occasions? If it is all the same to this young couple, they will oblige the public by quietly marrying or else breaking their engagement definitely and absolutely. Having to see the developments in this silly mess frequently in public print is a bit wearisome to the average person.
MR. McADOO URGES HIGH BAR STANDARDS
William G. McAdoo, recently come to California to practice his profession, is an earnest advocate of high standards among lawyers. He endorses the movement to raise the educational qualifications of members of the bar. He says that too many young men have been admitted to the bar without a suitable educational back-ground, Mr. McAdoo vigorously advocates the upholding of the traditions of the bar. Mr. McAdoo also feels that this country should educate men in statesmanship, as England does.
It is of interest to note that a campaign is to be waged to make requirements for admission to the bar more rigorous in California. There are two types of men who should not be lawyers—the unserrupulous and the incompetent. The lawyer should be—and the best type of lawyer is—a promoter of justice and an inspirer of respect, among the people, for the law and for the profession. But all lawyers are not of the best type. There are unserrupulus and nonforiously unfit men in the profession, as there are dishonest and unfit men in all the professions. It behooves the best element among lawyers to do the house-cleaning for the profession.

Town in Review
It may be true that the "meek shall inherit the earth," but here in Anaheim I never had the acquaintance of a really meek man who owned as much as an alley lot.
The sultan of Turkey has disposed of his harem. And right here in Anaheim there are men who admit their inability to get rid of one wife.
When one of our amateur gardeners in Anaheim gets so he can tell the difference between a cabbage and a turnip he thinks he is a second Luther Burbank.
Dear Sir: Why didn't Adam and Eve use palm leaves instead of fig leaves to make their garments? It would have saved so much stitching.
—N. M. B.
A hotel in Los Angeles offers "public and private" baths.
Now what do they mean by that?
HOW ABOUT THE CONTRIBUTION BOX?
A bank in Russell has a card whose circle of income gives a hint to everyone. The circle of 100 points assigns 30 to food, 25 to rent, 13 to household, 12 to clothes, 10 for savings, 7 for education and recreation and 3 for extras. Every person should try to be guided by some plan. But where does religion come in?—Kansas paper.
The worst old bachelor in town sends me this one:
Dear Town in Review: There is no reason for the least fear regarding the possibility that only women will go to heaven. In fact, all the evidence on this subject, as given in the Bible, is directly to the contrary for there is no mention to be found therein of a female angel. Whenever an angel appears on the scene, you will find that the masculine pronoun "he" is invariably used. Therefore, we mean, who are "made in the image and likeness of God," can rest assured that, hereafter we will enjoy that state of perfect peace that is denied to us here.
—AMEN
I do not agree with my friend, Mr. Amen. Heaven without women in it, couldn't be heaven at all. So, there!
Each man reaps on his own farm.
NEW YORK, April 25. Our city is to have a peace memorial, if present plans are carried out, a great shrine to music and art, which will house an opera auditorium, art salon, concert halls, theatre and conservatories of art and music where complete educations will be obtainable. Governor Miller has signed the bill permitting the city to appropriate funds for the site, and the Board of Estimate is expected to act within a few weeks to provide the money, estimates of which range from $2,000,000 to $15,000,000. The most ambitious hope of those interested in the plan is said to be the affiliation of the Metropolitan Opera Association with it. It has not been decided whether the memorial will consist of one building (or a group). The principal purpose of the music and art center will be to give American young men and women an opportunity to reach the heights of artistic success.
Here is the sort of spirit that inspires! A little old lady, over ninety years of age, who is a resident in an old lady's home here in the city, always busy. She does such beautiful embroidery that she has orders far ahead for the things she makes from some of the smart shops on Fifth avenue, and she always seems happy. A caller asked her the other day why she didn't rest more. "I cannot rest," she said. "You see, the time is due when I shall begin a long rest, so why take a silly little one now?"
The world is certainly undergoing a new set of experiences and developments. All our lives we've been reading tragic stories — fiction and reality—and seeing sensational movies about the awful thouls that happen to girls alone in a city; and one of the regularly recurring ones is that of the girl who is held prisoner in a man's apartment. Well, as I said, we are having new situations these days. Here is poor Angus K. Nicholson, a broker with offices on Broad street, and fifty-four years old, who protests that he was held prisoner for three days in the apartment of Miss Malvena Richman, twenty-one year old motion picture playhouse. Louis Wolheim will continue in the leading role of "Yank," the stoker who hurts himself headlong at all the established institutions and conventions of modern civilization in revenge for an insult which he thinks a blase society slummer gave him when she descended into the stokehole of a modern liner to see the "animals" at work, and agast, stared at him "as if he were a hairy powerful thing that O'Neill has done."
One glass-top table restaurant in town is adding to the friendly atmosphere of the place by putting a little card under each glass, telling you that "Your waitress name is Eva," or whatever it may be.
JUDGE'S BROTHER DIES
ASHVILLE, N. C., April 24.
Charles B. Landis, former congressman from Indiana and brother of Judge Kenesaw M. Landis, baseball commissioner, died at a hospital here this morning from an acute malady with which he was stricken last night. He came here last week to recuperate. Judge Landis is en route here.
Taste is a matter of tobacco quality

FORGET THE THORNS

Storms and calms will alternate as thorns among the flowers.
And while we seek the roses the thorns quite oft we scan.
So let us, tho they wound us, be happy as we can.

"Flowers are the sweetest thing God ever made and forgot to put a soul in."
All our lives we've been reading tragic stories — fiction and reality—and seeing sensational movies about the awful thouings that happen to girls alone in a city; and one of the regularly recurring ones that of the girl who is held prisoner in a man's apartment. Well, as I said, we are having new situations these days. Here is poor Angus K. Nicholson, a broker with offices on Broad street, and fifty-four years old, who protests that he was held prisoner for three days in the apartment of Miss Malvena Richman, twenty one year old motion picture actress, and that she robbed him of $5800 in jewelry and cash. We think of a broker as being one of our most worldly wise and experienced citizens, and Broad street as a fairly keen street, while 54 years would indicate fair sophistication. But things are getting badly confused.
Neither circus lore nor easy wealth is going to interfere with the career of Robert Ringling, the country's chief circus heir. Young Mr. Ringling who is 24 years old and the son of Charles Ringling of circus fame, has just signed a two-year contract for concert and operatic singing with R. E. Johnston, who is manager for Tetrazzini, Titto Ruffo, and other notable singers.
Probably the most impressive religious service of New York's history was the great outdoor service held in Central Park at dawn on Easter morning. The New York Federation of Churches arranged the gathering and nearly 100,000 worshippers were present. Bishop Herbert Shipman presided and Dr. Henry Van Dyke read his poem, "God of the Open Air." An amplifier was installed on the Central Park Hall, so that there was no difficulty in hearing the speakers.

Good Results From Welfare Conference
If the results from the Baby Welfare conference to be held this year in connection with the California Valencia Orange show begins to compare with the benefits from the first one, Anaheim children will be most fortunate.
As a direct result of the first conference there was established a Baby Welfare Clinic, with Margaret Kuehl, the Red Cross nurse, in charge, and under her care the clinic has been of service to many unfortunate children. The clinics are held in the Episcopal Guild hall each Friday morning, with Dr. Joseph Robinson, a child specialist as the medical advisor. Since last July 255 visits have been made on sick babies and 63 babies are now on her active list.
Also following the conference of last year the Community Shop was established with Mrs. John Price in charge. The ladies get discarded clothing of all kinds, renovate and clean and sell these articles on each Wednesday and Saturday from 10:00 a.m., to 5:00 p.m. Nothing is given away, thereby encouraging charity, but some price even though only a cent or two is charged for everything and many worthy but unfortunate people have been greatly helped. Many a little Mexican girl has had a nice little dress who otherwise would have had to go to school with poor clothes. Mrs. Price and the other ladies have been good enough to give their time entirely free and as a result enough money has been made from these sales already to buy an automobile for the Red Cross nurse to use in her daily work and to maintain same.
If present plans work out the ladies intend this year to extend the work and start a dental clinic. Defective teeth have been proven to be the direct cause of maeh suffering and disease in later life and many children in this community have never had the opportunity of even having a dentist clean their teeth.
Anaheim has every reason to be proud of the women who have this work in charge. It means a better place for us all to live in.
