T. Coleridge. Pessimism is a deadly fume to the spirit of progress. Enfranchisement of women has improved the complexion of politics. The Fourth of July never should be observed perfunctory or indifferently. Too many men, promising to kill their besetting sins, shoot only blank cartridges at them. It may be said of his majesty, Satan, that hot weather does not drive him to take a vacation. He is injured to heat. Many an automobile pleasure ride starts down Joy Street, only to end, because of reckless driving, in Grief Alley. The deadly weapon should have no place in disputes between labor and capital. Reason and conciliation are the weapons that should be used. It is to be assumed that there is a great deal about the eternal world which God does not intend that man shall know while he remains in the flesh. When to the appalling loss of life is added the stupendous monetary cost of modern warfare, the criminology. POLITICAL INTEREST IN 1924 GREAT Midsummer heat has depopulated Washington. Congress is as dull as the public square of a village on circus day. There is no life in official news, for the time being. Hence the enterprising newspaper correspondents in the national capital are turning prophets. They are auguring as to the Presidency in 1924. They find that the situation as to candidacies is very much mixed. There is even some doubt as to whether or not President Harding will be a candidate for renomination. It is probable, however, that he will be. Charles E. Hughes is regarded as strong Presidential timber, his brilliant service as head of the State Department having effaced memories of his defeat in 1916. Then there is Robert C. Hoover, who also is making a great record in the cabinet, and other eminent Republicans. California may furnish the Democratic candidate. William G. McAdoo having transferred his citizenship from New York to this state, he becomes essentially a Californian. Mr. McAdoo looms as a strong Democratic Presidential probability. There may be a third party in 1924. Whether there will be a new political organization of great power remains to be developed. Truth is, the whole future of politics is obscured with clouds of uncertainty. It is interesting, however, to contemplate the possibilities of 1924 and to conjecture thereon. CALIFORNIA PRODUCES DIVERSITY California has a greater diversity or agricultural, horticultural and mineral productions than, perhaps, any other state in the Union.

Reason and conciliation are the weapons that should be used. It is to be assumed that there is a great deal about the eternal world which God does not intend that man shall know while he remains in the flesh. When to the appalling loss of life is added the stupendous monetary cost of modern warfare, the criminal folly of useless wars is obvious. Generations to come, for hundreds of years, will be paying on the staggering debt entailed upon the leading nations by the World War. State pride is praiseworthy. Those who love their native, or their adopted state with an intense devotion are good patriots. Their love for the Nation is quickened by this love for the state in which they have their habitation. State songs and choosing state flowers are commendable. God weighs souls in terms of character, not of reputation. Had He weighed the Christ in terms of earthly reputation the Saviour would have been shut out of Heaven. For among those who condemned and put Him to death, His reputation was not good. It is not what men may say of you, but what God knows that you are, that counts in the high courts of Heaven. CALIFORNIA PRODUCES DIVERSITY California has a greater diversity or agricultural, horticultural and mineral productions than, perhaps, any other state in the Union. Soil and climatic conditions vary in different sections of state, make it possible to grow products of semi-tropical climes, and of the temperate zone as well. Corn and cotton grow side by side, as well as apples and oranges. The diversity of productions is remarkable. Cotton and rice, introduced a few years ago, have become staple productions. The same is true as to dates. In grain fields, orchards, vineyards and truck gardens may be found crops of dozens of different varieties. Experimentation frequently brings another soil industry into being in this state. And so it is with minerals. A list of the metals produced, or to be found in California, looks like a catalogue of a mineral exhibit. This state is singularly wealthy in natural resources. By abiding consistently by a policy of non-aggression toward other nations and people, Japan would gain and hold the confidence and goodwill of the world.

Phone 217 THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA NEW YORK LETTER NEW YORK, June 29.—The buried treasure fever is sweeping the world again as it did two generations ago. Another crew of adventurers has sailed from New York all outfitted to bring back fortunes in Spanish doubleboots. A typical "long, low, rakish craft" steamed out with five men aboard, all from New York and New Jersey, bound for a little unnamed island off the coast of Nova Scotia, where they expect to dig up $50,000,000 in doubloons, pieces of eight, old English crowns, and bullion. They carry maps and charts and they plan to dig up the buried treasure of a South-American country, which hid it on the island during one of their many wars. They are no hot-blooded youths who have set off on this adventure; the leader of the party being James R. Cameron, 59 years old, of Elizabeth, N.J. Now the scientists tell us about the dangers of air—not for transportation purposes but for eating! New York dietician and chemists are lauding the work done by Prof. W. Paul Heath, food scientist of Chicago, who has turned his scientific discoveries to the very practical fields of bread, butter and ice cream. "Heathized" bread is the answer to many food problems, they explain, because those nice apertures in the dough are not caused by air or oxygen but by carbon dioxide, which is good for our digestions, while air is not. Furthermore, ordinary bread is decayed by air or oxygen while "heathized" bread cannot decay and remains fresh for ages. Prof. Heath points out the well known phenomena of canned fruit being spoiled by a defective rubber ring's allowing the air to get into it, and the unpleasant way in which an apple turns brown when you have once bitten a hole in its protective skin and let the air at it. Air destroys those much-lauded creatures—vitamines they tell us, and the Department of Agriculture in Washington is joining in "the anti-air chorus by pointing out the mischief caused by little air bubbles in butter." Nature employs carbon dioxide, instead of air, in her own products, and man is flames of the chair in which the late Theodore Roosevelt used to sit, when as a Police Commissioner of this city, he ate many meals there. It was one of the points of pride and interest of the whole East Side. Paging by radio is the latest innovation in the most head-of-time hotels. The management finds that the scurrying about of bellboys is disasteful to the guests, so now the telephone operator will summon them from the lobby or restaurant by radio. We never tire of listening to Geo. M. Cohan out here. In a recent interview (on returning from abroad) in one thousand words he has attempted to describe what has not changed about this town. Among other interesting points he makes, the following are noteworthy: "Department stores have not departed from the bargain gag—tired business mens' wild wives still haunt the $3.98 sign; we have more theatres than we had five weeks ago—yes, I might say five days ago; diamonds are still worn by chorus girls and jockeys; the 'rubes' are still falling for the Chinatown buses; taxi drivers are as neat, tidy and polite as ever; the waiter still sticks him thumb in my soup; motion pictures are still in their infancy; married life is everything it ever was—even more so." He closes with a characteristic estimate, "Conditions have turned turtle of course, but we all stand ready to meet conditions just as we did before the kaiser went off his nut."

True philosophy is humility in the realization of the infinite wonders of the universe, compared with the speck, humanity. WHAT WOULD YOU see if you could travel to Mars in a rocket? To start with, you'd find a planet about half the size of the earth. Mars has two moons. A day and a night lasts 37 minutes longer than on earth. The Martian year is 687 days long. The oceans of Mars are rapidly drying up. It has at least 200 "canals" some 75 miles wide and 3000 miles long. Our astronomers claim they see, not these canals, but the vegetation that sprouts up along them in springtime. Temperature on Mars averages 60 degrees. A rock that weighs 100 pounds on earth would weigh only 38 pounds on Mars. This difference in gravity, along with other peculiarities of environment, causes our scientists to believe that if people live on Mars they are from 12 to 15 feet tall. ALL THESE scientific facts and speculations about Mars are interesting. More interesting is man's ability to reach out through space so many millions of miles and gather these pieces of direct and circumstantial evidence. The knowledge and machinery with which our scientists accomplish these feats were acquired patiently and slowly, through many thousands of years. It is a great step forward from primitive man who believed that the shining heavenly bodies were devils and supernatural beings. The human race is progressing steadily, mentally, and the goal would seem marvelous if we could picture it. Mankind is sailing slowly, through fog and night, to an unknown destination.

For Sale By Nenno & For Sale By JAMES THE VUL COMMENTS OF THE PRESS What Editors Are Saying BRAZILIAN TREASURES — New York Evening Post. It is the opinion of the late Dr. J. C. Branner, president emeritus of Lehland Stanford University and one of the few American scholars deeply versed in the culture of Brazil, that Brazilian fiction must inevitably lose much of its beauty and flavor through translation into English. In a letter written in 1920 he gave some of his reasons for this belief. "I doubt that their literature will appeal to our people," he said, "for the simple reason that so few of us understand the setting of the stories or get the point of view indispensable to appreciation. The most successful book lately published in Brazil is 'Uruques' by Monteiro Lobato, editor of the Revista do Brazil at Sao Paulo. It is a collection of short stories written with perfect frankness and simplicity and in a colloquial style that puzzles the foreigner not a little." When the author wrote Dr. Branner to inquire about the advisability of having "Uruques" translated into English, Dr. Branner replied that he feared it would not pay. "You will see what I mean," he wrote to an American friend, "when I tell you that one of the stories is about a young man being killed by a monjolo built by his father. How many readers here would know what a monjolo is? The point of another story turns on the peculiar habit of the Matapau, but we don't have such a plant." But why need Portuguese words give American readers pause? The serangs and praus, that are seldom absent from Conrad's tales, the lianas of Tagore, the veronicas and aficionados of Ibangz, the evejars of George Meredith, the droshkies of Tolstoy, the smorgaas of Hamson, not to mention thronging examples from the French, German and Italian store of untranslatabilities, bother hardly at all. Also Sparch Zarathustra. They even give one a travelled feeling. There is a treasure house of fiction, drama, and satire to the south of us, and it seems unreasonable to expect English-reading folk to consider it verbatim, merely for the sake of some elusive native phrases. WISE AND WITTY Other people's money makes a fine plaything. In going back to the old home town, you get a certain satisfaction in seeing that other folks have grown old, too. Reputations acquired through accident are the hardest to maintain. Failure is what happens to the man who achieves success and then sits down to enjoy it. Nothing is more monotonous than being virtuous for a living, except being wicked, of course. Farming is half work and half weather.
