DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS He only is great of heart who floods the world with a great affection. He only is great of mind who stirs the world with great thoughts. He only is great of will who does something to shape the world to a great career. And he is greatest who does the most of all these things, and does them best—Roswell D. Hitchcock. The finest ambition anyone can have is an ambition to grow. There is moral tonic in doing a hard task well and uncomplainingly. This nation will be safe so long as it remains anchored to Christian faith, precepts and practices. Science has done and is doing a vast deal to lighten the burdens and to brighten the pathway of mankind. The vote that is savored with honesty, courage intelligence and independence, is the vote that counts for good government. Congress is taking all summer to do what a body of business men could do better in three weeks—that is, consider and pass a tariff measure. The mind must be fed, as well as the body, else it starves. Read that which is nourishing food for the mind, and then digest what is read. Give to your employment the best that is in you, and you will get from it the best that it is capable of giving, not only in material returns, but in satisfaction and pride. Watch the crowds coming from the STORK AND MELTING POT IN NEW YORK Forty-two different languages are spoken in New York City, by that many different peoples. It is pointed out by Health Commissioner Copeland that the birth rate among foreigners in the American metropolis is startlingly higher than among native Americans. He stresses the fact that the wealthiest people of New York have a birth rate of only seven to 1000, while on the lower East Side, among the foreigners, the rate is fifty-sixteen to 1000—or more than eight times as great as among native Americans of opulence. Dr. Copeland says that "if it were not for the influx from outside cities, New York would be a metropolis of foreigners in ten years." He adds that London is 97 per cent English; Germany is 100 per cent German; Rome is 100 per cent Italian, and Paris is 100 per cent French, yet in New York there are forty-two different peoples, speaking that many languages. This is a melting-pot problem of the gravest nature. Contemplation of facts and figures of this nature stresses the vital importance of having only the right kind of aliens in this country. SHOULD PROTECT PUBLIC AS TO STRIKES The public is insisting—very rightly is it insisting—that the losses and disastrous effects of industrial struggles should not be foisted upon the people. If differences arise between capital and labor, the people are getting in the mood to demand that these disputes be fought out and settled between the two parties, without resorting to strikes and lockouts, which punish the public more than the interests at which Th' best of movements is Well, anyhow, man is gittin' By the Mo For Rent—Fa and experienced.

Watch the crowds coming from the stores. Many are carrying packages of merchandise. The people are buying more generously than they were, and yet with good judgment. From present indications next Thanksgiving will be celebrated with more zest and with more abundant reasons to rite American people to be thankful than for several years. The United States government will grant independence to the Filipinos as soon as they demonstrate, to this country’s satisfaction, that they are capable of being outonomous. Too much agitation for self-rule before the jerusalemers are prepered for it might prove to be very mischievous. The American merchant navy is not a Topsy. It will not develop as the harum-scarum colored girl of "Uncle Tom's Cabin"—"just growed up." It must be built up, and the sooner the unbuilding begins in earnest the better. For this country must meet keen competition from other maritime powers, in its quest of supremacy in ocean-going commerce. SHOULD PROTECT PUBLIC AS TO STRIKES The public is insisting—very rightly is it insisting—that the losses and disastrous effects of industrial struggles should not be folsted upon the people. If differences arise between capital and labor, the people are getting in the mood to demand that these disputes be fought out and settled between the two parties, without resorting to strikes and lockouts, which punish the public more than the interests at which they are directed. The people feel that they should not suffer unnecessarily because of industrial controversies. There is no difference that may arise between employers and employed which may not be settled fairly and amicably, provided the spirit of justice and conciliation prevails on both sides. The public feels this, and sentiment is growing among the people to compel both sides in industrial disputes to accept reasonable arbitration on the principle of give-and-take. THE TIDE HAS TURNED PENNSYLVANIA—Goes Progressive. INDIANA—Goes Progressive. IOWA—Goes Progressive. Next? Something for the Republican bosses to think about.

J.T Lyon Realty Co. 111 North Los Angeles St. Anaheim Phone 46 Comments of the Press What Editors Are Saying CHICOGOAN BUYS DICKENS LETTERS — New York Evening Post By bidding $10,750 at the London sale a Chicago attorney, O. R. Bartlett, well known as a collector of materials of Lincoln and Poe, has acquired 600 letters from Dickens to Miss (afterwards Baroness) Burdett-Coutts. For this loss of the collection to America the English were well prepared. Already an American collector owns the letters of Dickens to Maria Beadnell, the sweetheart whom he immortalized as Dora in "David Copperfield"—letters much more valuable than the Burdette-Coutts series. The latter contain notching of marked biographical interest. Among the excerpts printed have been an appeal to the baroness for a contribution in aid of an impoverished son of Eton and a letter about Förster's engagement to a "widow, five or six and thirty, agreeable, and rather pretty"—with as many thousand pounds as she is years of age." This was the lady by who generosity almost all the original manuscripts of Dickensians. Dickens' novels became the property of the British nation. The most gratifying feature of the sale is that the collection remains intact. For the purposes of the student or publisher, a collection of letters sold in two hundred parts is a collection lost. It is impossible to trace the separate items into the thousand homes they find, impossible to obtain permission from some owners to examine them, and impossible to arrange any large part of them continuously. Dickens' collected letters, as we now have them, fill two flat volumes. They do not stand with the letters of Cowper, Mrs. Montague, Keats, the Brownings, or other of the very greatest letter writers. But his high spirits, his irrepressible fun, his astounding powers of observation, his graphic description, make them among the most entertaining letters ever penned. To have 600 more of them safe for ultimate publication will be a satisfaction to hosts of Dickensians.

Gazette Only eighteen out of every 100 widows, says the insurance companies, live on their incomes. Forty-seven work and thirty-five are dependents. This means that not enough men take out enough life insurance, and that not enough women know how to handle insurance either before or after taking. "Thousands of men are kept from taking out policies by their wives," says one insurance writer. "Women are likely to see only the possession of the moment. They see the fur coat and the automobile of the present, but cannot visualize the far-off rainy day." They cannot grasp, apparently, the good of going without today's luxury in favor of having comfort in the years ahead. The development of business education and experience among women is doing much to lessen the number of dependent widows. Education in the direction of buying securities with the insurance money, under the guidance of the reliable local banker, lawyer or business man, rather than investing in insurances under the influence of the blue-sky salesman, is also helping.

BE COMFORTABLE EDISON, the inventor, says the chief reason he can work 18 hours a day without getting "run down" is because he keeps his body healthy by never wearing tight-fitting clothes. Edison wears baggy suits and loose collars. He never wears tight shoes, a belt or anything that would interfere with the circulation of blood through his arteries. In other words, he doesn't saw cross-grain on nature. Maybe naturally intended the human animal to wear clothes: maybe not. Anyway, she certainly never intended us to wear garments that fit like the casing of a sausage. This means that not enough men take out enough life insurance, and that not enough women know how to handle insurance either before or after taking.

WISE AND WITTY SAYINGS IN BRIEF The mocking bird is God's work; the violin is man's; the saxophone, the devil's. We should all be careful not to catch a cold in either the head or the feet. Some people imagine they are religious if they can quote a little from Scripture. A woman would rather have people talk about her than laugh at her. What you take out of life is precisely what you put into it, and no more. Put your business affairs in writing, but not your love affairs. Falsehood always comes back, and has to be overthrown again and again. It is only a question of days until the man who gambles for money loses his job. The main advantage of being an aristocrat is that you don't require any brains. WE'VE COPIED the British naval officer's coat lapel: we've copied the British army office's trousers; we've copied the British idea of going without sock-supporters. Now let's copy their Bottomley idea of jailing war crooks. a day without getting "run down" is because he keeps his body healthy by never wearing tight-fitting clothes.

In other words, he doesn't saw cross-grain on nature. Maybe nature intended the human animal to wear clothes; maybe not. Anyway, she certainly never intended us to wear garments that fit like the casing of a sausage. Men, too, are slowly getting wiser—discarding tight starched choker-collars, painful shoes and plug hats that fit the head like iron hoops. Hygienists believe American women will be health-wise enough to keep their present comfortable way of dressing. Also, they are campaigning to drive some of the same common sense into men. You have noticed, in the movies, that the savages dress loosely, so the air gets easily to all parts of their skin? That probably is the chief reason they are as hard as nails and as healthy as young wildcats. Will All Anaheim Parents Please Read This?

IS THIS A FAIR QUESTION? MR. DAUGHERTY says in his letter to his friend Senator Watson (Ind.) that all he received from anybody in the Mormo case, civil or criminal, was "about $4000," which was "about half enough to pay my necessary expenses and disbursements connected with over a year's active investigation, preparation and service in the case." But: Daugherty was first approached after the contract of employment which was dated Aug. 4, 1911. Morse's pardon was delivered on Jan. 12, 1912. Now, assuming that Mr. Daugherty is entirely accurate in his statement, is it a fair question to ask just what it was that he did after Jan. 12, 1912 and Aug. 5, 1912—which would qualify as being "over a year" after Daugherty's employment?
