DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS The work of the fact-gatherer, of the student, of the maker of many material things, may perish; but the influence of the man who has broadened life for others, and set the keynote of a higher strain, abides forever—Christian Union. Honesty sleeps soundly, without troubled conscience. The progressive political candidates are making all the progress in this year's primary elections. The swindler in war contracts should be indicted, prosecuted, convicted and punished as would be any other criminal. The old school of actors and addresses rapidly is thinning. Death is claiming them. There are not so many towering figures on the stage as there once were. Tariff talk in Congress began more than a hundred years ago and is going on yet. And they do say that women do most of the talking, and never know when to stop! Losses sometimes are assets. They teach one wisdom and prudence. One loss which teaches a lesson may forestall a hundred similar losses in future. Profit by your losses. Turn your mistakes and failures into successes. Should a certain distinguished automobile manufacturer be a candidate for President, the jokester would have no end of fun. But Mr. Nordic candidate will make much KLOSDIKE DISCOVERER OF GOLD DIES It was in August, 1896, that George W. Carmack, a natty son of Contra Cesta county, California, stumbled upon "pay dirt" in prospecting along Bonanza Creek, in the Klondike. With two Indian assistants, he developed claims that made fortune and his announcement of his discovery of gold started a stampede of fortune-hunters which carried 60,000 to the new diggings. George Carmack just died. He had the reputation, in Alaska and the Yukon country, of being a man of his word. He proved this to be true when he gave rich claims to his two Indian assistants. A man of his type stood well in that region in pioneer days—in fact, stands well there now. Enormous development has come since that discovery of golden treasure was made. Vast treasure has been taken from the Klondike region and from different parts of Alaska. It seems almost incredible that so much could be accomplished within the brief span of a small portion of this pioneer prospector's lifetime. The far Northwest has been settled permanently and is producing varied riches and looks forward to even greater productiveness. Use of automobiles in this country has grown to enormous proportions. In truth, the automotive vehicle has become a tremendously important and absolutely indispensable factor in modern life. As a source of pleasure, it contributes immensely to the general joy of living in this country. It adds greatly, too, to educational facilities.

Should a certain distinguished automobile manufacturer be a candidate for President, the jokesters would have no end of fun. But Mr. Ford's candidacy might be more seones think. Achievements of the Arms Conference at Washington stand out in relief, as time claps, as of truly great historical significance. The world has been carried along toward sustained peace through international agreements of the most salutatory nature. The bulk of all business is done on confidence. It is because of the confidence of the people in the soundness of general conditions that the economic situation is improving. Destroy confidence, and business and industry would be undermined and would come to grief. The Americanization of America calls for Americanization among a great many native Americans, as well as among foreigners in this country. Some natural and citizens of foreign birth are better American patriots than are some of American birth. It is all in the spirit, not in the place of birth. School training is very important in modern life in this desirable if the individual is to accomplish things worth while. But training in schools is valuable and important to the individual only in such measure as it is transmitted into useful endeavor in life. The educated idiot is a menace, rather than an ornament, to society. Use of automobiles in this country has grown to enormous proportions. In truth, the automotive vehicle has become a tremendously important and absolutely indispensable factor in modern life. As a source of pleasure, it contributes immensely to the general joy of living in this country. It adds greatly, too, to educational facilities. For persons even of limited means go about a great deal in machines and see and learn much that they could not see and learn without this method of travel. Commencement has its sadness as well as its gladness. It has its partings—its separations and breaking of ties and companionships. But, on the other hand, it has its opening fields of opportunity, its budding aspirations and its golden dreams to be wrought out into achtements. The world, to the graduate, is a book to be opened—a book whose preface has been read in the schools, but which must be read, in its main composition, in the actual experiences of life. Commencement is a time for smiles and for the furtive tears of sadness. California's soil productions are of vast proportions and are constantly increasing in volume. They add hundreds of millions annually to the state's produced riches. The importance of agriculture and horticulture to California is beyond measure. There should be consistent promoting of soil-tilling. Ranchers and orchardists should be encouraged to expand their production by liberal credits, just as other industries are fostered. Every school child should have ample accommodations as to housing and school equipment. This growing community has before it constantly the duty and responsibility of providing amply for the housing of its school children.

KINDNESS Jones had very consistently come home drunk every Saturday night, and his wife had just as consistently received him at the door with a broom and the customary abuse. The neighbors suggested that perhaps kindness would help when harris methods had failed, and accordingly the next Saturday night she met him at the door and said, "You're late dear; so just sit down and I'll get your slippers and put them on for you." Jones winked owlishly, and replied, "Well, go as far as you like dearie; I'll get hell when I get home, anyway!"—Judge.

REINCARNATION Boston is interested in a woman named Autinea, who claims she is the reincarnation of an ancient Egyptian queen. Antinea is a movie actress.

We've all noticed that th' fellers with th' most civic pride don't pay any taxes. Richard, Oh, Richard, Won't You Please Run for Office In California Richard Fletcher of Bay City, candidate for governor at the September primaries, announces his platform as follows: I am for the reduction of taxes. I am in favor of the repeal of the state corporation tax. I am against the one cent a gallon gasoline tax. I am against personal income tax. I am against the proposed depositary tax. I am against the proposed stamp tax or any other unnecessary tax. I am against high salaried state appointtees driving high-priced autos at the expense of the tax-payers—Caro (Mich.) Advertiser. The local school board has not yet joined those of other cities that The life of a delivery boy isn't so hard even if his parcels are large if they are the right kind. A boy still in his teens was carrying a swivel chair balanced on his head the other day through a traffic-crowded street. It looked like a fairly heavy burden, but he got his compensation, when congestion of automobiles and street cars held up the crowd at a street crossing for several minutes. The boy realized it was going to be a considerable delay, so he swung the cairn down from his head, placed it firmly on the sidewalk close to a large building, sat down, lighted a cigarette and smiled comfortably. You cannot be beautiful in your face, if you aren't comfortable in your feet. Such is the declaration of a whole army of doctors, backed by no less an authority than the Health Education department of the Y. W. C. A. So serious a place has this matter of feet and their proper shoing in the whole matter of health—and beauty—that the Y. W. booth is to be devoted entirely to displaying the proper kinds of shoes. I saw some of the foot toggery the other day and it really was smart looking as well as sensible—which is always a surprise to a great many people. "A five-room apartment with a room for every toe" is the description given to proper, healthful shoes, by some physicians; but in spite of the exceedingly ample sound of the sentence, the shoes are trig and attractive. The Y. W. has a regular corps of doctors who travel around the country, at the request of clubs or their own branches, giving talks and exhibitions on the importance of avoiding foot follies. When one sees some of the jerky gaits and the wobbly ankles, one thinks it would have been a good plan to have started something of the sort a generation ago. New York Letter by Larry James Price REINCARNATION Boston is interested in a woman named Autina, who claims she is the reincarnation of an ancient Egyptian queen. Antinea is a movie actress. While her reincarnation claim sounds as if a clever press agent jurks in the background, it is interesting that many millions of people believe they "lived before" on earth. Maybe you wonder, yourself, at times. It is a fascinating belief, a reaction from the universal desire to escape death or extinction. The reincarnationists usually are modest enough to admit that in previous existences they were Napoleon, Queen Elizabeth and similar personages. You will travel a long time before you find one of the faithful believing that in a previous existence he was a nobody. Lots of people would be poor if they didn't owe so much. Mabel Normand, en route to Europe, says she'll write a book about her trip. The title, we are informed, will be "Innocence Abroad." Rudolph Valentino has taken out a permit to carry a gun. We had no idea the flappers were that bad in Los Angeles. AH, MUH LUVE! In June, the seven wonders of the world are: Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. HAIR IN EGYPT A statuette of a flapper who existed in Egypt 5000 years ago is exhibited in Boston Art Museum. It was dug out of an ancient tomb. The statuette shows the flapper making bread. Her hair is bobbed and appears to have a "permanent." After 5000 years the earth's toiling millions still are bobbing hair and baking bread. Life runs in cycles, eternal repotition. The parents of the ancient Egyptian flapper probably made a great fuss when she came home from the hair-dresser's with her locks shorn. Most of us can be glad we don't get everything that is coming to us. LABEL: THIS A JOKE "Sir, would you give $6 to bury a saxophone player?" "Here's $30. Bury five of them."—Judge. I am in favor of the repeal of the state corporation tax. I am against the one cent a gallon gasoline tax. I am against personal income tax. I am against the proposed depository tax.

The local school board has not joined with those of other cities that have prohibited teachers from wearing short skirts and bobbed hair. When freedom from her glorious height unfurled her standard to the air, she fixed the length of women's skirts and wouldn't let 'em bob their hair. STOP IT IN NEW YORK CITY school teachers are now being subjected to inquiry as to their patriotism, at the hands of a recently created inquisition authorized by the legislature. The committee, behind closed doors, asks any questions it desires. This inquisition is a product of the Lusk activities, set up on the theory that there should be some tribunal to probe the pure Americanism of men and women teachers in public schools. Inquisitions of any kind, even with patriotic label, are bad. No human being can be competent to hear in secret and pass upon the patriotism of integrity of another. Secret trials are unconstitutional and abhorrent to our laws. Charges, if any, should be made in the open. If true, sustained in the open. Those who hold dear the American traditions and the fundamentals of the Constitution and Bill of Rights will fight this inquisition—or any other. THERE IS no truth in the rumor that the police chiefs are meeting in San Francisco this year for the purpose of studying the enforcement of the Volstead act at first hand. EVEN IF THEY DID refuse her seat in the House of Lords there are plenty of other places where Lady Rhonnda can sit down. SUPREME court refuses to decide whether the outfa board is a toy or sporting goods and subject to taxation. Oh say! call it interference with business and jump on it with the well known Sherman act! J. E. Rodden, Insurance, Phone 71. New York is shy on alleys. There's no doubt about that. Our apartment houses and sky-serapers back up against each other with only a few inches of air between them. The only alleyes left are in the older parts of town and they are fast disappearing with the "renovating" of the districts. There is one left, however, of some historic interest; and it is probably the most mis-named thoroughfare in the city at the present time. "Theatre Alley" it is called—miles from any theatre with not even a motion picture house anywhere about it. Fardown by the Brooklyn Bridge it runs north from Ann-st between Nassau and Park Row chistened long ago when Barnum had his museum and theater at Broadway and Ann-st. Now it is used as a street rather than an alley, with the rising value of inches of real estate, and is lined with tiny second-hand book shops and sheet music stores. No one in New York is disposed to quarrel this year with the three wise men who awarded to Eugene O'Neill's "Arma Christie," the Pulitzer prize for excellence in the American drama. This scores two for O'Neill, as the prize two seasons ago went to his "Beyond the Horizon." Last year "Miss Lulu Bett" took it. A square deal for the former service man in his everyday life is far better than medals and high-sounding praises. Give him all those—a chance to get on for himself, and honors for his gallantry in war. For the first time in the history of this country, Congress bestowed a medal of honor upon a foreign community, and that community is Verdun. There, during the great war, Frenchmen fought with dashing courage and their valorous heroism was written high upon the scroll of fame. If ever a city or a nation earned special recognition for the loftiness of its courage in battle, that city is Verdun and that nation is France.

STANTON Dealer for Northern Orange County 129 No. Lemon St. Anaheim, Cal. A Live Dealer Will Sell You a Live Car Comments of the Press What Editors Are Saying KNIGHTHOOD NOW FLOWERING—Milwaukee Journal. Your ship is lying to in a fog so dense you can see nothing, its siren sounding a warning. Suddenly another siren answers with a piercing shriek; out of the mist glides another great ship that cuts your vessel in two. After that all is confusion; there are glimpses of Lascars crowding every white man and woman out of the way. The only thought is to save one's self. Then read this from the story of the Egypt's sinking: "The ship's printer, Genner, gave his life to save a woman, survivors say. Genner, who left a wife and child in Dover, put on a life belt after the collision and was about to jump into the sea, when he saw a woman running up and down the bridge, begging for help. Genner put his life belt about her and said: 'Madame, I don't know how to swim, but take it anyway.' He was drowned. And this: "Chief Wireless Operator Harwick went down with his ship, sending out calls for help." "Why talk of days when knighthood was in flower? In such a crisis, can any sudden burst of heroism come to a man. Can anything make a hero but the ingrained thinking of a lifetime, of generations! To save one’s life is the natural instinct; who has not felt it? But something else rises in the heart. It is not hope of reward; for there can be no reward. It means nothing but 4000 miles away your name will be printed as a hero. There must be something in the soul of a man that is the glory of human nature. It compels the great sacrifice of which we read with answering thrill in our own hearts." EVENING SCENE IN CASCADES Where the evening sunbeams linger, On the mountains far away. I love to watch the changes At the close of Summer day. I watch the fading sunlight On the regal cap of snow, And the dark green old forest That circles just below. It's a picture for the artist, But the skill can never trace, The grandeur in the picture With all its charm and grace. I see the changing shadows, And the evening's golden glow, Or look far down the rocky gorge Where mighty waters flow. I hear the purlling streamlet Go rushing in its flight As it hastens on its way Far down the mountain height. I love the fir-clad mountains; Wise and Witty Gas will run a car, but it won't buy new tires or pay the garage bill. After all is said and done, nothing will push you ahead like a plain day's work. Human nature is so contrary that it doesn't want what it's got, but hankers for what if hasn't. Why is it a man who never uses a toothbrush always wants to stand close to you when he talks. Art and anarchy are largely matters of hair-cut and necktie. A BEST SELLER As the boy who tended the newsstand was absorbed in reading a book, I hunted around until I found the magazine I wanted and then approached him. When I spoke to A BEST SELLER As the boy who tended the newsstand was absorbed in reading a book, I hunted around until I found the magazine I wanted and then approached him. When I spoke to him he did not raise his eyes from the page, but held out his hand for the coin and dropped it automatically into the till. I said: "Where's the change?" "What did you get?" he replied without looking up. I told him. "How much is it?" he asked. I said I did not know. "Can't you read it on the cover?" he inquired crossly. When admonished I searched the cover until I found the price mark tucked away in the hair of the pretty girl picture. When I told the new dealer he tossed the change over the counter. One of the coins rolled on the floor, but I recovered it while the boy read on. Curious to learn the nature of the book he was reading I glanced over his shoulder at the title. It was called "The Science and Art of Salesmanship."
