DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS What war so cruel, or what siege so sore, As that which strong temptation doth apply Against the fort of reason evermore, To bring the soul into captivity? —Spencer, The American farmer is not out on strike, nor is he the victim of a lockout. The crop of June brides is coming on famously, with no injury by frost or flood. The life that does not crave and does not have music in it, is harsh and discordant. The restraining hand of the law is not restraining criminality so much as it should. As to the proposed betterment of motion-pictures, the public seconds the motion. There are types of moral courage which are the finest and noblest of human virtues. Destiny is busy looking over those Ohio lads and picking the ones who are to be future Presidents. There is too much vacant space in prisons which should be occupied by desperate, murderous criminals. That Princeton professor who has devised a cold light that never goes out is no friend of courting couples. Since they are being transmitted by radiophone, it is more fitting than ever to speak of musical selections as airs. There are much more useful and sensible things that men may do than trying to go over Nineteen. PRANK OF ROWERS CAUSE OF TRAGEDY Two bright and promising California boys went rowing in a canoe in Westlake Park. They came alongside a boat in which were two girls. Pleasantries were exchanged. Then one of the girls did what no boy or girl ever should do in such circumstances—the she took an oar and tipped the canoe. The boys lost control, were plunged into the water and both were drowned. The girl, of course, was innocent of intention to cause a tragedy. But she will carry with her through life unspeakable regret that she did what she did. "Rocking the boat" is a dangerous prank, as foolish as it is dangerous. It is directly inviting disaster. Every sensible boy and girl should discourage this kind of foolhardiness; also the reckless risks in mountain-climbing by going too near the edge of precepts, or prankishly pushing any one near to the edge. EUROPE IS IN CRISIS OF VAST IMPORT The Christian people of Europe should be on their knees praying heaven to guide their statesmen assembled at Genoa. Christian America might join in the prayers. For if wisdom and justice and love of peace do not prevail in that tempestuous conference, then farewell to hope of sustained peace in Europe! The crisis is so ominous—so full of terrible possibilities, that super-statesmanship is required to bridge the yawning chasm which portends another bloody baptism for Europe — possibly for the whole world. It would be foolishly dogmatic and presumptuous for far-away American observers to say with bigoted finality: "This should be done"; or "that should be done." Practical statesmanship in a crucial situation like that at Genoa cannot deal with dogma. When a house is There is too much vacant space in prisons which should be occupied by desperate, murderous criminals. That Princeton professor who has devised a cold light that never goes out is no friend of courting couples. Since they are being transmitted by radiophone, it is more fitting than ever to speak of musical selections as airs. There are much more useful and sensible things that men may do than trying to go over Niagara Falls in a barrel. The Senate may debate the tariff for two or three months. And it is such debates that do not make the time pass quickly, too. Any nation seeking to extend "hands across the sea" to make mercenary connection with Uncle Sam's purse pocket, will not receive a cordial clasp of welcome. There must be strawberry shortcake in heaven just to keep the boys who go there from being disappointed in their conception of what heaven should be and have. President Harding has poised, equanimity and cheerfulness of disposition in refreshing abundance. He sets a striking example of how a man may be under the burden of many cares.

NEW YORK, May 2. — Whether Greenwich Village, that semi-mystical region around Washington Square, is to stand forth and insist upon being considered "respectable" in a conventional, substantially commercial sense of the term, or whether it is to remain tinged with the Bohemianism of art, temperament, and instability is being fought out right there upon the local field of battle. Uptowners have scorned or adorned that district of meandering streets, studios-made-out-of-barns, and bobbed-haired maidens, and have disputed its worth among themselves and with the "villagers." But now the dispute is raging between the villagers themselves. First there came the Greenwich Village Chamber of Commerce, with announced intention of "making better business and raising the commercial standard of the village," and of making up-towners realize that the wild stories of New York's Latin Quartier were figments of the imagination. They even invited Fifth avenue business men down to address their meetings. The 100 per cent villagers revolted. Led by Harvey P. Vaughn, literateur, they formed a second organization, the Greenwich Village Board of Trade, "to protect us from the machinations of the over-respectable and commercialized chamber of commerce and to make the village more interesting." It was without any tears at all that we saw 68 men and women call out of New York Harbor the other day on their way to join "Big Bill" Haywood in Russia and become miners in one of the Soviet mining enterprises in the Ural Mountains. It was said aboard ship that the trusting travelers had given over all their possessions to the Soviet Central government and kept only $8 each for incidentals on the long journey to Big Bill. There were 64 men and four energetic women. BALL FOR DISABLED VETS IS SAT., 5TH assist in raising funds for a royal civic welcome and reception for the many thousands of wounded and disabled American heroes of the great war who will be San Francisco's guests of honor, for the second annual national convention of the Disabled American Veterans of the World War, the last week in June, the Mayor's Citizens' Committee is to sponsor a monster entertainment; pageant and ball, at the Civic Auditorium here, next Friday evening. May 5. The entire proceeds of the big affair will be tendered to the citizens' convention fund, to provide a royal welcome for the visiting thousands who will come here from all parts of the United States, for the Disabled American Veterans' national convention, June 26 to 30. The "headliner" attraction at the civic show and ball next Friday evening will be the personal appearance of Rudolph Valentino, probably the most popular motion picture star in the world today, who will come here by special train to take a prominent part in the monster program being arranged. Valentino will stage several exhibition dances, including the sensational dance numbers from "The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse." Twenty pretty San Francisco girls will be his dance partners. He is also to participate in the ball that will follow the entertainment numbers, which will include twenty high-class attractions from the leading theaterers and cafes of San Francisco. Eugene and Willie Howard and the entire "Passing Show" company will appear, also Fanchon and Marco, Harry Marquard's Revue and numerous other stellar acts. Music for the public ball which will follow the entertainment will be furnished by a massed band of 200 pieces, volunteered by members of the Musicians' Union. This great band will be let alternately by prominent musical directors and orchestra leaders of this city included...

ONE THING HE OVERLOOKED A club reporter was very anxious to make good, and though assigned to the "gloom," run, did his best to locate a sparkling feature in stories gleaned from the morgue. One day he turned in the following "copy" to the city editor: "It had always been the ambition of Mr. and Mrs. John J. Smith that they might die together. One-half of this wish came true last night when Mr. Smith died at his home on north Greeley avenue." When the C. E. saw it, he called the cub to his desk, and said sternly: "My boy, you've overlooked a most startling coincidence in this story." "What could that be, sir? groaned the reporter. 'I thought I had covered everything.'" "They were married on the same day,' returned the editor, and resumed his clopy reading.—Clipping Contributed. Powerful indeed is the empire of habit.—Syrus.

There were 64 men and four energetic women. One of the most interesting and hopeful tendencies in American art, I insist, is the urge shown this past year for making beautiful things aside from pictures and sculpture, and the space given those "things" at our art exhibitions. At the annual exhibition of the Whitney Studio Club (Mrs. Harry Payne Whitney's) now being held, is one of the loveliest little gems of art I have seen in a long time. It isn't a painting or a statue. It's a ship. It is called the "Caravel of Illum; the extravagant." Ilumme, who is a Persian beauty, a development, like the ship, from the brains of the artist. Donald Cosley, is supposed to sail the seas in this wonderful little craft, with a tragicio, of which she is the sole occupant, at one end, and a temple ar the other. Marvelous things have gone into the mechanism of the little craft, a cross of Spanish gold, and worked in ivory, metal and glass. The bellying sails are covered with gold. A strictly scientific laboratory has been founded in this city for the exclusive study of all sorts of physical and odd physical phenomena. Researches will be undertaken there into the great unknown, into that borderland of spirit and matter which so fascinates the human mind. It measures one's aura, demonstrates the power of the mere presence of a living creature by magnetic currents, and does all sorts of things which may throw bombs into the strongholds of spiritualism, or may give them support, according to the results achieved. But the method of working is, as I said, to be rigorously and honestly scientific. William Russell, an electrical engineer is in charge of the experiment. The radio boom has reached the downtown office boys, many of whom are now active on a new "exchange" which is operated on Fulton street, west of Greenwich street. Everyday the boys congregate there and exchange the parts of radio apparatus they don't want for others they do. The state of the market sometimes makes it necessary for the police to take a hand. The success of the dream-pirate, "Captain Applejack," made a real pirate play inevitable. Sydney Shields, a New Orleans girl, seems to be the first one to reach the market with one. She has written a play around the notorious John Lilith. Plain Dealer for Good Job Printing. WILL SERVE YOU WELL The Quality Storage Battery Service With a Smile Automotive Electric Co.
