Worry claims a thousand victims where overwork claims one. The penalty for speeding often-times is death, and the speeder brings the penalty upon himself. Gossip caused the "hammer murder" in Los Angeles. Gossip causes a fast deal of trouble in the world. Unnecessary trouble, and oftentimes cruel, too. It is to be hoped that Will H. Hawk, after his official inspection of moving picture plants here in this state, will register pleasure, satisfaction and approval. America, thank God, is not bankrupt in principle! Its course toward every nation and people is honest and straightforward. It is not deceptive or double dealing. The good that men and women do is not mentioned by the scandal-mongers. They are not interested in anything good that may be said of the victims of their vile tongues. The people are in no mood for the laundering of soiled political linen in this year's political campaigns. They want facts and arguments, not personal calumny and mudslinging. Europe still is in the valley of the shadow of doubt. Its economic plight is pitiable. It has this country's sympathy. Whenever it starts on a safe course of self-help it will have this country's aid. The two suns which a Capadian ELK, NOBLE ANIMAL, IS NEAR EXTINCTION The elk, one of the noblest animals to be found in America, is so near extinction that the Biological Survey of the United States department of agriculture is much exercised and is asking the co-operation of federal, state and other governmental agencies and private organizations, to protect the remnant herds. There are but two large groups of elk left in the United States and it is estimated that they number only 52,000 animals—a pitiful remnant indeed, when it is remembered that in primitive days, countless numbers of this splendid animal roamed the country, from ocean to ocean. It is in the Yellowstone National Park and that region that the last of the elk are to be found. Systematic attempts to restock the herds have been made within the last ten years, but with only partial success. Sentiment should join with sense and practical methods for preserving this animal against total extinction. SHADOW OF BOLSHEVISM SCARES EUROPE The shadow of Bolshevism, terrorizes Western Europe as the mythical Giant Hand, in olden times, frightened navigators. Russia is yet the land of mystery to the countries west of it. They cannot fathom it. They do not know what to expect next from it. They are at a loss to foreknow whether Bolshevism is to flourish or to collapse. They cannot prophesy as to whether the Soviet forces are to hold out the olive branch or to loose the dogs of war again upon Europe. Russia is of the utmost strategic importance to any scheme for the political and economic regeneration of Europe. Its policies and its internal status are of vital concern to the rest of the continent. Town in F WITH ALL THESE CIGARS GO! It will be smoky arctic summer, even if there fires in the mountains.

The two suns which a Canadian scientist has discovered, have temperatures estimated at about 30-600 degrees Fahrenheit—or a few degrees warmer than the Presidential campaign in 1924 promises to be. A great fortune occasionally goes to smash through speculation in Wall Street. Speculative gambling has been and is the graveyard of fortunes. For one fortune that is made there, scores are lost there. A mishevious gossip caused the "hammer murder" in Los Angeles. And yet this offender is at large, still peddling gossip. There should be rigorous law against libelous scandalmongering. This is a serious year in national politics. The people have reasons to think much—to think clearly and independently. If they do not think and if they do not act with discretion, woe betide the Nation! Positions in Congress should be filled by sincere, faithful men of statesmanly calibre. If men of this type are to be selected, the people must do it. Such things are not done automatically. There is no automation that grinds out or moulds stolesmen and presents them, ready-made, to the people. If Congress is to be filled with capable, conscientious, consistent men, the voters must do the filling—must select the right type of men. EDUCATION IS FOSTERED IN CALIFORNIA California is the staunch friend of higher education. Besides its own state university, which has the largest enrollment of any institution of higher learning in the world, California has several universities and colleges which are supported handsomely with patronage. So rapid is the increase in attendance at all these institutions, a constant problem with them is to expand their housing accommodations and their equipment expeditiously enough to meet needs as they arise. Youth, here in the Pacific West, must be served with higher education. The number of young men and young women of California and other states of this section who apply for entrance into college and universities is phenomenal. It denotes a healthy trend of sentiment and ambition toward higher and broader enlightenment and better personal equipment for coping with the momentous problems of this strenuous and crucial age.

JAMES 223 No. Los Angeles Street Anaheim THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER, ANAHEIM, CALIFORNIA NEW YORK, July 28. — I have seen the plainest little women pouring over the society columns in the local papers, just as if they were on terms with the people described in them. I mean just the perfunctory activities of the people in the social eye—not scandal and such—and I have wondered why. A strange little soul from one of the Main street towns has told me, "It reminds me of the home town gossip. What I miss most is what is going on in society, the chatty gossip about our well known citizens. Of course I don't know these people, but the debutantes become real creatures to me, and I am just as jealous over the success of my favorites as if I knew them." Our artists never would get narrow in their outlook if they all combined their fields of art and activity as does Joseph N. Jacobson. His studio at 54 West Ninety-first-st is furnished with an easel and a huge gas range. One is as much an equipment of his life work as the other. With impartial affection, he carries on his twin arts of painting and cooking. He has been chef to the Czar of Russia, a grand duke, and the United States senate. He has done magazine covers in Russia, France and Sweden. He congratulates himself that cheffing is more profitable than painting but he loves them equally and divides his time with as close to equality as he can manage orders for the two products. The E. T. Stotesburys, of Philadelphia, may become bona fide residents of our city. They are looking at the home of George J. Gould, at 857 Fifth-ave, with a view to buying it. There's just no counting on nature. She chooses the most unexpected places and occasions in the world to assert her power. You'd think if there were any place in which you would be removed from her vagaries. White hat topped his costume and untif the startled onlookers discovered what his clothes really were, they thought a Beau Brummel from Central America had come among them. Detectives of the Missing Persons Bureau believe that Edward Euston, a night watchman for a steamship company in this city, who died in a Brooklyn lodging house, was an English nobleman. Photographs found in his cheap room seem to have been of himself in court costume, and newspaper clippings bear out the theory. Allen Dixon, 57 years old, colored elector chauffeur of a Nashville, Tenn. apartment house, is in our city demonstrating specifically the truth of Emerson's statement that if a man makes a better mouse trap than anybody else, the world will wear a foot path to his door-step. For Allen Dixon was sent for to come to New York because he had invented a rat trap for which some New York concern wants to pay him $25,000. One of the clever playlets being produced in town is "The Critics," a satire on the dramatic critics by Sa-John Ervine, which is being used as a curtain riser for "S. S. Tenacity," at the Belmont Theatre. It is sufficiently good-natured satire to be real comedy and is tremendously enjoyable, even to those of us who have no personal grievance against the critics. The main play of the evening is going well and deserves a long run. Even on Manhattan Island, all is not abandoned to the recknessless of modernity and the modern woman. Alderman Peter J. McGuiness has introduced an ordinance to prohibit women smoking in public places. And the expert statisticians are going to be busy when Mr. McGuiness next comes up for election determining the comparative strength of his feminine constituents' vote for and From the National City News: The meeting was then turned over to Mrs. T. F. Johnson, who presented a most interesting study on the wood warblers, the most useful, least harmful and most numerous division of our birds, most of them going through life singing variations on the sound of "tsee" and devouring an incredibly large number of harmful insects at a recent meeting of the Friday club. Every picnic kit should contain one of those "tsee" birds to pick the ants out of the sandwiches. War department services notice that 2516 army officers must be retired or discharged before Dec. 15. The ex-service men in this office agree for once—they hope they're all second lieutenants. The way men went on strike—but the highwaymen keep right on working.

Main St. Phone 452 Santa Ana Comments of the Press What Editors Are Saying JULY FOURTH OF '63 Santa Barbara News The fourth day of July, 1863, was a momentous day in the history of the republic. The rebellion had been waged for three years. Lee had dodged Hooker and had passed between the two ranges of mountains by Harper's Ferry, and had reached the central portion of Pennsylvania. He was nearing Harrisburg, the capital of the state, an was at Carlisle. Grant had been besieging Vicksburg, and on June 23, had been defeated in an attempt to force the Confederate lines. The fate of the nation was in the balance. At Gettysburg, on July 1, the Federal troops had been defeated and compelled to fall back. Reynolds, the gallant leader of the First Corps, had been killed, and there were left countless dead from the heroic body of men. The Eleventh Corps had lost Barlow, badly wounded, and had been driven back under Howard from the west of Gettysburg, passed that little city, and had taken position upon Cubs' Hill. On July 2, the battle raged fiercely on the Federal left, and Sickle with the flanks of his corps in the air, was forced back first by a blow upon the right, and the Peach Orchard and the Wheatfield became historic places. The night of July 2 came, with the lines hardly held along the ridge. On July 3, came the greatest artillery battle the world had witnessed to that date. The Confederate cannon, some 150 in number, belched forth death, and the Federal cannon of like number, answered as best they could. Then came Pickett's charge, the greatest and grandest charge in the history of war. Fifteen thousand men, with arms at a right shoulder shifter, charged the center of the Federal lines. This line of gray came on as quietly and as firmly as ever a line came on the parade. The cannon mowed a swath in the line, and the gray line quietly closed up and came on, and on, until the Stone Wall was reached, and the blue tine gave way. But there were others to fill the gap, and there was a struggle of a scant half hour for the mastery, and the gray line melted. Pickett's charge was a matter of history. But the Confederacy was dead, as dead as the myriad of Pickett's men that were scattered upon field. Vicksburg surrendered on July 3, 1863, and the Confederate troops who had defended that stronghold to the last, were prisoners. The news of the events that were happening was eagerly waited for by the anxious people at home, on that July 4, both North and South. As the day of the Fourth went by, the news came that lifted up the hopes of the Northern people and crushed that of the South. Never in the history of the nation has there been a Fourth of July like that of 1863, and never will there be such a Fourth until the epitaph of the country be written. Tankage capacity is of little use since the country went dry. When there is only one way out, take that way, no matter how much it hurts. A kiss is the starting point of many a trouble. Schools that teach children's hands rank as high as those that teach children's heads.
