HESTER, Editor Subscription rate—In No. Orange-co: Per yr. $3; six months $1.75 Entered at the Postoffice at Anaheim, Cal., as second-class matter DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS He leaves man to advance steadily, learning from faults and failures, and mistakes — each generation improving on its predecessor, until the earth that he subdued to the obedience of Christ. There was no Golden Age being us, except in the minds of the poets. There is a Golden Age before us, and to that we must continually strive forward. — S. F. Deems. Boastfulness seidom has much merit behind it. The public has rights which capital and labor should respect. The Hague conference seems to have failed quite thoroughly and successfully. Los Angeles goes right out of one shocking murder sensation into another. If a gossiper causes a murder, he or she should go to prison as a party to the crime. It might be well to keep a watchful eye on those jealous wives who go out shopping for hammers. Scandal-mongering flourishes because there are so many whose ears itch to hear scandons tales. Why denounce Turkey for atrocities in Armenia, when that one in Herrin, Illinois, is fresh in memory. You are, in effect, paying yourself dividends when you support the business houses of your home city. Worry is a merciless slave driver, unless one rises in might of moral courage and throws off its shackles. MRS. WILSON'S HEALTH IS IMPROVED That Woodrow Wilson, former President, is improved in health, is the gratifying news which comes from Washington. While very lame yet, and unable to walk except with assistance, the former President otherwise is physically better, and his mind is alert. Rumors have persisted recently that Mr. Wilson was in a critical condition — it even has been reported that he was dead. But it is found that he attends the theatre weekly, that he goes for motoring trips and that he is coming along well physically, except for his lameness. It is to be hoped that Mr. Wilson's life may be spared for many years, that he may set down, in enduring form, on the printed page, his vivid recollections and impressions of the stirring period through which he served the Nation as its chief magistrate. Nothing is said, in Washington dispatches, as to whether or not Mr. Wilson has yet taken up writing. It may be that he is waiting to store up a greater reserve of physical strength before easing a task so momentous. The world will hope eagerly that Mr. Wilson may have the strength and the inspiration to set down his memoirs in the vigorous, brilliant literary style which characterized his writings in his palmy days. JAPAN IS WITHDRAWING FROM SIBERIA It is reassuring to learn that the Foreign Office of Japan has announced formally its decision to withdraw the Japanese forces from the mainland section of the providence of Saghalien, thus clearing Siberia. The Russian half of Saghalien Island is to be held, pending a settlement of the claims affecting that region. It sincerely is to be hoped that Ja- Scandalongering flourishes because there are so many whose care itch to hear scandious tales. Why denounce Turkey for atrocities in Armenia, when that one in Herrin, Illinois is fresh in memory. You are, in effect, paying yourself dividends when you support the business houses of your home city. Worry is a morbid slave driver, unless one rises in might of moral courage and throws off its shackles. It may not be possible for two to live as cheaply as one, but the illusion lints up love's young dream beautifully. Has the United States much room to chide Mexico because of banditry down there? How about banditry in this country? Gossip caused the hideous hammer murder in Los Angeles. Scandal-monitors have many a dark seed to their discredit. Canada is seeking 60,000 outside workers to help garner its wheat crop. Which in itself is a stirring note of prosperity. That conditions are getting better is indicated by the fact that Mr. Edison has not put forth a questionnaire for a long, long time. It is an unsafe criterion to say that woman is as old as her mode of dress indicates. Some grandmothers today are dressing in "tapper" style. Nations can, if they will, live in peace, just as neighbor families do. It all in the will to peace. If there is will to keep the peace, a way will be found. The grandeur of Abraham Lincoln's character grows with the years. It requires time even for his own countrymen to comprehend the mobility of his greatness. The people have a right to fuel and a right to transportation facilities. Capital and labor should settle their own differences without impairing and trampling upon these rights of the public. JAPAN IS WITHDRAWING FROM SIBERIA It is reassuring to learn that the Foreign Office of Japan has announced formally its decision to withdraw the Japanese forces from the mainland section of the providence of Sargallian, thus clearing Siberia. The Russian half of Saghalien Island is to be held, pending a settlement of the claims affecting that region. It sincerely is to be hoped that Japan may continue to show intent to follow a peaceful, non-aggressional policy as to the mainland of Asia and as to the insular portions of the Pacific. There are phases of Japan's territorial policies to be developed and made clear yet. But several developments since the Arms Conference give indication that the Tokio government is bent upon maintaining peace and good understanding with the world. Nowhere would this spirit be welcomed more sicerely or more cordially than in the United States. This country would like to be on terms of friendship with Japan at all times, and hopes that the questions and issues which arise between the two countries may be worked out in friendship, to the satisfaction of both. The "best society" is an arrangement that the best people refuse to go into. California is increasing steadily in population, adding many desirable families to its permanent residents. It is getting quality in its newcomers, as well as numbers. No frowning fortifications are needed between the United States Peace and good will prevail between them. Disinterested friendship is better than dark suspicions and huge armaments. The latest startling murder in Los Angeles is evoking the usual quantity of maudlin sensationalism from the saffron press. The plain, unvarnished facts about the gruesome deed are horrible enough, without having the horror compounded with columns impossible, exaggerated rumors.

Winthrop Bowen Room 1, Second Floor ANAHEIM Town in Review When the office starts out seeking the man, it usually finds him coming to meet it. Otheman Stevens, L. A. journalist, has a friend who came in from Hollywood last week to learn that he was clear out of touch with things. "I'm two murders behind," he said. "I'm going right up to the Los Angeles chamber of commerce and ask them to agitate a No Murder week."

New York Letter What is the hardest punishment you can visit upon a New Yorker? Why, not to let them live here, to be sure. Residence in our midst is going to be a reward of good behavior; that's all there is to that. Judge Taylor of Brooklyn realized the severity of exile from all a New Yorker holds most dear, when he sentenced Henry Tienure for burglary. Tienure had served two terms at the reform school at Elmira and consequently prison didn't seem sufficiently effective to the judge. So when he Comments of What Editors A ARTIST PAINTS LABOR—N During the Victory Loan campaign 300,000 copies of a poster were placed before the American public. It bore the title, "Sure, We'll Finish the Job," and showed a smiling workingman digging down in his blue jeans. The artist was Gerrit A. Beneker, who had tried in vain to sell his talents to the government in return for a bare living during the duration of the war. Failing in that, he sold "Sure We'll Finish the Job," to a Chicago lithographer on a royalty basis, and the lithographer sold it to the government—at a profit for all concerned. After the war, Beneker, still bitten by the idea that art had a place in labor relations, set up his studio in a Cleveland steel mill. He painted his fellow workers at their tasks and in their rough clothes. Then he wrote short interpretations to accompany the pictures and published both pictures and comment in the house organ of the company. Thus grew an unique collection of industrial art, now comprising some 30 canvases of power and originality. During the past winter the Beneker collection was sent on tour through the Middle West. It ranged as far west as Wichita, Kan., with stopovers at St. Louis, Mo., Kansas City, Mo., and several Kansas towns where artistic interest runs higher than we Easterners imagine. It was shown in factory towns and railroad towns, as well as in university centers. In Flint, one of the leading automobile centers of Michigan, the Chamber of Commerce paid the expenses of the exhibit, and more than 5000 people viewed the pictures. Beneker takes both life and art seriously. He believes that through artistic interpretations of industrial processes men who labor can be brought to appreciate the dignity and beauty of their essential tasks. Also, he agrees with Whiting Williams that deep in the heart of the job is the desire to be appre- each decade finds the average American better off, standard of living mounting steadily.

This got us all het up, until we read on and found the article really dealt with American Chemists. We Pay Stenographers to Take Down This Stuff at Washington Bob Taylor used to tell a story about nine brothers who all slept in one big bed, and when they got ready to turn over one of them would holler "Spoon!" and they would all turn the same time. He said one day one of them was out on a springboard reaching out over the river where the water was 10 feet deep. He had gone out there fishing and was lying on his chest and had gone to sleep. One of the boys on the bank saw him out there and hollered "Spoon!" and he turned over and went head over heels into the water.—Sen. Heflin (D) Ala., in Congressional Record. Life is too short to live fast. No matter how much a woman hates a man, she swells with vanity if he proposes to her. What is the hardest punishment you can visit upon a New Yorker? Why, not to let them live here, to be sure. Residence in our midst is going to be a reward of good behavior; that's all there is to that. Judge Taylor of Brooklyn realized the severity of exile from all a New Yorker holds most dear, when he sentenced Henry Tienure for burglary. Tienure had served two terms at the reform school at Elmira and consequently prison didn't seem sufficiently effective to the judge. So when he gave him ten years in Sing Sing, he provided that five years of the time was to be suspended in exchange for the burglar going into exile from our state. Five years in Sing Sing and the rest of his life anywhere but here! Fifteen years within prison walls would have seemed mild in comparison, if Tienure is a true New Yorker. The theatrical agencies in Moscow are flooded with requests from American producers for Russian companies to appear here. A strong interest has developed in New York in the Russian playwrights and actors and probably next season will see several of them on our boards. Captain His Highness the Maharaja of Rajpipla, is our latest royal visitor. He has just arrived from London and has already taken in Long Beach, several of our cabarets and the summer roofs.

He is fond of polo, horse racing and other sports, and has spent considerable time in London. The job of a "door knocking" sales man is not an easy one at this time of year. I have recently heard of a man who goes from one line to another with the change of the moon and can always sell, but he got fed up during the recent hot spell, and used his ingenuity to sell himself to an organization making a business of selling campaigns. He went in looking very prosperous, and this, coupled with his ready speech, invoked the question as to why he should be out of a job. He answered that he didn't need to work, having an income, but that every now and then he took up some work that appealed to him, hoping that he could see his way to make it a permanent connection. This so impressed the organization, that their work was so engrossing as to acquire a man who didn't have to work, that they accepted him immediately. He then pointed out to them that so valuable an inducement to other men to go into their lime of work was not without value, and that they should pay him a retainer. Since he looked the part, and promised to keep up the show of shown in factory towns and railroad towns as well as in university centers. In Flint, one of the leading automobile centers of Michigan, the Chamber of Commerce paid the expenses of the exhibit, and more than 5000 people viewed the pictures. Beneker takes both life and art seriously. He believes that through artistic interpretations of industrial processes men who labor can be brought to appreciate the dignity and beauty of their essential tasks. Also, he agrees with Whiting Williams that deep in the heart of the laborer is the desire to be appreciated; a craving for public recognition of the importance of the job. The first sentence a worker speaks, when you are watching him at his work, is likely to be this: "There's more to this job than you think there is." That is the professional's challenge to the needless amateur, the expert individual's justification of his existence. To get that claim on record permanently before the world in color and line Beneker holds to be one duty of the artist.

Since he looked the part, and promised to keep up the show of one satiated with the world's goods and yet working for the love of it, they agreed to give him fifty dollars a week for looking as if he didn't need to work. Walking through lower Seventh avenue, I was struck by a perky ballet girl, cut from wood and serving as an advertising sign in the window of a little shop.

ST PAINTS LABOR—New York Evening Post This, of course, is pioneer work. Just as Millet pioneered with peasants in paint, so Beneker pioneers with his portraits of steel workers. In art the pioneer has rough sledding. Beneker is now being told that art is not morality or economics or social service or anything whatsoever that smacks over so slightly of a mission. Nevertheless, he holds religiously on his way, and, curiously enough, the public comes to see his pictures, especially in those utilitarian areas to the west where art for long has been eschewed as a pasthome for dilettanti.
