DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS Accepting the great pledge Of His concern for all our wants and woe, We cease to tremble upon danger's edge; While varying troubles form and burst anew, Safe in a Father's arms, we smile as infants do! —Chauncey Hare Townshend. That Premier Lloyd George leads a charmed life his political enemies are ready to believe. Uncle Sam is setting a good example by reducing his debt whenever possible and as much as possible. Babe Ruth has temperamented himself out of public favor. His childish petulance disgust his former admirers. William G. McAdoo is putting the "mum" in minimum in that which he is saying about his possible candidacy for the Presidency in 1924. Should he be a candidate, California would get the credit for being his home state. Count Ilya Tolstoy says that Bolshevism in Russia is near its end. Possibly the wish is father to the thot. Count Tolstoy regards the soviet regime as an unspeakable tragedy and the greatest political failure the world has known. Many a man is indebted to his failures for his successes. The man who makes of failures stepping-stones to success, has not the elements of failure in him. The most successful men, at times in their lives have made mistakes and failures. There never again should be a great strike of coal miners, paralyzing the industry as it is affected to-day. POLITICAL POT SEETHES IN BUCKEYDOM The grand old Commonwealth of Ohio has a sympathetic feeling for the old woman whose habitat was a shoe. This old lady had so many children she was nonplussed as to what to do. Ohio, on its part, has so many political candidates it does not know what to do. Four Republicans seek nomination for United States senator, and nine Republicans are candidates for nomination for governor. There are 22 congress districts in the state and there are scores of candidates for nominations to congress. For county offices the number of candidates is equally generous. This is rather exceptional even for the politically exceptional Buckeye state. In that state from time immemorial, nearly every male child has started early for the presidency. Let a fond mother see her little Willie mounted on a stump in the clearing, and she could roll back the curtain of futurity and behold her favorite son standing on the steps of the capitol at Washington, taking the oath as President of the United States. Ohio boys inhale the air of politics as Swiss boys inhale the air of the mountains. VIOLENCE SHOULD NOT BE TOLERATED There is far too much violence in the world. There is too much political violence. There is no country in the world that is civilized and that has any semblance of democracy in its government which has excuse for political violence. There are effectual peaceful methods for settling domestic political differences. There is too violence in industrial controversies. This, too, is avoidable and unwarranted. The law of the bludgeon and the bullet never should be invoked in settlement of disputes between labor and capital. Settlements made by force are not settlements at all. They only breed hatreds and provoke other outbreaks. TOWN IN We notice, repers, that street pull over to the less auto drivers.

How else stay outside the Count Tolstoy regards the soviet regime as an unspeakable tragedy and the greatest political failure the world has known. Many a man is indebted to his failures for his successes. The man who makes of failures stepping-stones to success, has not the elements of failure in him. The most successful men, at times in their lives have made mistakes and failures. There never again should be a great strike of coal miners, paralyzing the industry as it is affected today. Industrial differences can be and should be settled peaceably, without resort to hurtful outbreaks. The public suffers from these industrial strifes—suffers cruelly. This should not be. It is honest difference of opinion that divides voters into parties and makes partisans of them. Partisanship is not a bad thing in itself, if it be not abused and carried to excess. The fealty to a political party which has no tolerance for the opposing party, but which counter-nances bigotry and abuse, is bad partisanship.

GROVE, Manager SSEX Town in Review We notice, reading the newspapers, that street cars still refuse to pull over to the curb to dodge reckless auto drivers. PLENTY OF RESCUERS That "ship burning at sea," turned out to be a rum boat signaling ashore to have its cargo taken off, has done a wonderful thing for the safety of sea travel on this coast. Woman was the original advertiser, says Rae Rice. They're still at it—and once in a while a bargain comes along. Negotiable blondes, for instance. FAME AND THE GLANDS The more science learns about the mysterious endocrine glands of the human body, the more it believes that genius is the result of chemical abnormalities of the glands. Among famous geniuses, we find these epileptics: Julius Caesar, Mohammed, Lord Byron, Dostoyevsky and Flaubert. Fame is a fine monument. But, like everything else, it has its price. If real happiness is the most desirable goal, lucky is the individual who is normal. Hello, All Ships and Stations! Hello, All Schooners and Bars!

Today's Candidate for the Poison Ivy Club The gink who spits across your bow just as you start topass him in the street. The itch for office, which is assuming epidemic proportions, just now, seems to be a seven years' itch with some fellows. Lil Koo, Ko, the office scamp, says: Mars must have heard from the earth. How else could they know to stay outside the three-mile limit? NEW YORK, July 1—It takes considerable to surprise New York; especially from womankind. But Miss Lorena Tickey, twenty-two years old and weighing ninety pounds, accomplished just that when she came in to town the other day and knocked at the door of the Jockey Club, applying for a jockey's license. At that unfeminized club on East Fortieth-st., she was refused at first permission even to put in an application for a license. But after she had submitted proofs of her prowess on tracks in Oregon, Idaho, Arizona and Washington, the club thought better of it and the application was received. She has been riding and winning consistently for Charles B. Irwin, owner of a racing string at Cheyenne, and is now out to conquer the East. The "ultimate consumer" should benefit by the work that R. C. Thayer is doing at the present time. Mr. Thayer is president of the National Retail Merchants and Buyers Ass'n., with headquarters at the Hotel Imperial, and his Association has recently begun a drive to increase membership in it to one thousand retail merchants in different cities of the country. The slogan of the Association is, "scientific co-operative buying." This eliminates the jobber and middleman, according to Mr. Thayer, and puts the average merchant in the same position so far as prices are concerned as the chain store and the big mail order houses. Mr. Thayer should know all about the competition the average merchant is forced to meet as he was the principal merchandise buyer for one of the big mail order houses of the country twenty-five years. Flaming red coats may bedeck our Wall Street messenger boys in the near future. Bankers and brokers, having always gone to the other extreme and dressed their messengers as inconspicuously as possible in order not to make them targets for a highwayman, are now said to be wondering whether the opposite pores can be observed to surprise New York; especially from womankind.

The fun starts at 9 a.m. and will be continuous until 9 p.m. R. C. Bell is chairman of the celebration committee, assisted by W. T. O'Howell and J. S. Welsh. Dick Parks of Los Angeles, is supplying the entertainers. Other members of the entertainment committee are Captains A. Forbes and S. E. Lane. The entertainment will include the Anaheim Municipal, for which special band stand has been erected; Decker's Hawaiian troupe in costume, Edo & Joe in comedy act, barrel contest, bun contest, milk drinking contest, dory contest, etc. Those who stay for the evening will see the decorated lights on the great white way.

Golf balls are now being manufactured that sell for $9 a gross. This isn't much of a help. We can't even hit a gross or golf ball. And Each of Them Probably Whistling for the Others to Get Out of the Way J. H. Lovering, civil engineer, says in the Cong. Record: "They have got 50 locomotives on 28 miles of track, near Dam No. 2, Muscle Shoals." The helicopter, we read in our science notes, is a machine that goes straight up. Like, for instance, a wife when hubby is late for supper. "Opposites attract. That's why," says Li'l Gee Gee, the office yamp, "a poor girl wants a rich man." MORE U.S. S. STUFF It seems that our ships can't carry passengers on water alone, says Tom Sims. SUSPICIOUS ANYWAY "Is May the kind of a girl that gives you any encouragement?" "Well, all I know is that the last time I called on her she kept wondering what it would feel like to have whiskers on her face."—Mich. Gargoyle. Father's day is coming soon. Make the old man feel natural, folks! Give him a dish of razzberries. A fat man on a hot day doesn't seem to think nature is so wonderful. Mr. Thayer should know all about the competition the average merchant is forced to meet as he was the principal merchandise buyer for one of the big mail order houses of the country twenty-five years. Flaming red coats may bedeck our Wall Street messenger boys in the near future. Bankers and brokers, having always gone to the other extreme and dressed their messengers as inconspicuously as possible in order not to make them targets for a highwayman, are now said to be wondering whether the opposite policy might not be a good idea. It would be difficult for a messenger boy not to have the unofficial protection of the hosts of passerby, they argue, all the way along his route if his calling and responsibility were so elationed. Also it would be difficult for him to become a runaway—unless, of course, he thought to take his coat off before starting to run. "He Who Gets Slapped," the Theatre Guild production at the Garrick, has a new leading man, in the person of Basil Sydney, the English actor, husband of Doris Keane. He succeeds Richard Bennett who is heading the coast and summer stock, Mr. Sydney, who is Irish born, has played all his life in England, except for his appearance here in "Romance" with his wife. He came over this year to America and tried out Edward Shelton's play, "The Lonely Heart," which the Shuberts started off on the road. This closed though, just in time for the Theatre Guild to slap him up for the role of the clown-hero of Andreyev's colorful drama. The sophisticated show scorn of those of us who make the weather a topic of conversation. And yet, after all, what is more important, as an influence on the drift of our lives? I was talking to a girl of the Broadway type the other day—the blase, town-bred type that thinks life has to be a dizzy whirl in order to be worth while. "What do you think I am doing tonight?" she exclaimed. "I am going rowing in Central Park: Can you imagine anything so juvenile and rural? A new man asked me and I was so surprised at the idea that I accepted, and honestly, I'm looking forward to it. I believe maybe I'd like the 'simple pleasures' after all, if I gave myself a chance at them." I agreed with her and I was glad some man had come along who suggested rowing in Central Park instead of jazzing in Central Palace. The next day I ran into her again. "How's the lake?" I asked. "Lake! Say, how could I go on any lake in that downpour. No, we had to change our plans and go to a cabaret, instead. I guess I'll stick to Broadway. Then you don't have to worry about the weather!" We look upon the days of the "wild west" when men wore firearms and were ready to shoot on a mom-ebration committee, assisted by W. T. O'Howell and J. S. Welsh.

RYS. LOSE PROTEST ON KING TAX BILL SAN FRANCISCO, July 1. — The petition of the Santa Fe and Southern Pacific railroads for an injunction against the King tax bill had failed today, according to announcement from the United States district court here. URGE TARIFF ON HONEY WASHINGTON, July 1. — A heavy tariff on honey was urged by Senators Johnson and Shortridge of California today. Democratic senators openly laughed, launching several pointed glibes on the question. William G. McAdoo, former Secretary of the treasury, will address the Interpost Council of the American Legion on the Fourth in Lincoln Park. We look upon the days of the "wild west" when men wore firearms and were ready to shoot on a moment's notice, as belonging to the hazardous days of old! Well, how peaceful and effete does this sound? In the environs of Greater New York, we are having to build an armor plated truck, equipped with rifle loopholes and pipes for spreading tear gas, for the protection of banks and other institutions which ship large sums of money. That seems to go back even farther than frontier days. Fageol Tractors Are Cheapest in the long run. J. J. DeVaux H. S. Gelnette, Manager 328 West Center St. Anaheim, Cal. Saturday, July 1, 1922 COMMENTES What miles of READING FOR THEYYS Vacation reading lists are made out, perhaps not so universally as lists for other vacation equipment but at least enough to warrant a little discussion of the subject. There are those books one has been meaning to read all winter. They might be mastered now. On the other hand, they lack the freshness of untried volumes, and might better wait until one returns from the vacation, keen and eager. It might be a happy thought to try to adapt the vacation reading to the vacation spot. There are sea tales and verse which will gain in charm if they are interpreted by the nearness of the sea itself. For those who go into the woods or mountains to camp, or into the country, there are books of woodcraft, of nature stories of outdoor life which will fit into the atmosphere of the outing very happily. Henri Fabre, John Burroughs and Thoreau come to mind readily but there are numerous others. You can deceive yourself very much easier than any one else. Women understand men a lot better than men understand women. ADD CLASS TO YOUR CAR Dainty Monograms and Initials. Anaheim Auto Washing & Simonizing Co. Moved to West Bros. Electric Shop. Cor.
