DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS Above all, we need faith in the Christian ideal of culture, which measures its value by its use; its dignity by its lowliness; its height in character by its depth of reach after souls below it. —Austin Phelpe. With a corn crop of three billion bushels the American farmer will not worry about his mush, this fall and winter. They are settling the coal strike. But that does not settle the huge loss which the strike entailed upon the public. When nations come to understand each other and when they deal honestly with each other, there will be no more wars. The paramount issue in politics in some parts of the country, this year, seems to be, who can say the meanest things about the opposing candidates. Political campaigns should be clean, honorable and abuseless, conducted on the plane of reason and real argument of a nature to enlighten, not to confuse the voter. These industrial troubles will not have been in vain should there come from them some feasible plan for avoidance of hurtful conflicts between capital and labor in future. Newspapers have wonderful power and far-reaching influence. This power and influence should be used decently and for the maintenance of clean standards. There are many clean, conscientious, high-standard papers in this country. Do not let your memory depend too much upon memoranda. The memory soon becomes indistinct. WHEAT PRICES FALL BUT MAY BE TEMPORARY Wheat has dropped below the dollar quotation on the Chicago Exchange. This is not encouraging to farmers. But the slump may be only temporary—in fact, there is every probability that it will be temporary. While the yield of wheat in America is heavy, yet the world's needs are heavy, too. Even though Europe is in desperate financial straits, it must eat and it must depend largely upon the American farmer for its foodstuffs. There will be large importations of American wheat. Home consumption, too, will be enormous. As the season advances and as the new crop of wheat goes on the market, there is likelihood that the price will advance. While the consumer quite naturally likes to have wheat prices down as that means cheaper flour and bread, yet he has no desire to see the farmer lose money, or to fail to make reasonable profits from his products. For when the farmer prosperes, his prosperity is reflected throughout the country. COLORADO DAM PLANS TO BE CONSIDERED The Colorado River Commission's meeting, scheduled for this month, has been postponed until October. Herbert C. Hoover probably will attend the postponed meeting. At that meeting it is hoped that definite plans may be agreed upon for proceeding with the projected damming of the Colorado River. Agreements among the several states lying in the basis of the Colorado River is the end sought. There has been considerable friction on the part of some of these states, and no harmonious agreement has been reached as yet for apportioning waterpower and water from the project. Settlement of these rival claims on the basis of justice and equity, will require much skill. Mr. Hoover's counsels and influence will bear witness to how he sits at a table boulevard with a glass of wine. Newspapers have wonderful power and far-reaching influence. This power and influence should be used decently and for the maintenance of clean standards. There are many clean, conscientious, high-standard papers in this country. Do not let your memory depend too much upon memoranda. The memory soon becomes indolent, if coddled and erased along. One should keep one's memory alert, but not to the point of straining. It is a valuable helper in life, if not overloaded, or if not mollycoddled through memoranda and other indolence-inviting helps. Suppose the American farmer went on strike, or declared a lockout, every time he had a grievance—when would labor and capital eat? And yet the farmer would be just as fully justified in striking or in withholding his products, as labor and capital are justified in their wars with each other, to the hurt of the public. The United States mail service is not appreciated at its full value until the mails become blocked for a few days, from some cause. Postal service is one of the quintessential features of modern business and social life. It is an institution that should be encouraged by the public and should be supported bounteously by the government. PEOPLE DISCONTENTED IN POLITICS. This seems destined to go down in history as a year of great unrest in American politics. The masses of the people are disatisfied with the way things are going. Justly or justly, they hold the national administration responsible. Particularly pronounced is sentiment against Congress. This, of course, should not become too sweeping. The people should not take out their dissatisfaction against all members of Congress, indiscriminate! But this very thing may eventuate. When disappointed and discontented, the people strike out more or less blindly. There have been several notable political upheavals within the present generation. There may be one this year. At any rate, the people are restive and November may bring surprising election results. DODGE BROTHERS MOTOR CARS Three Quarters of a Million–Satisfied Users Are You One of Them? Chas. H.

F. W. JAMES Los Angeles Street Anaheim EDITORIAL SATURDAY Subscription Entered at Abe Martin COMMENTS OF THE PRESS BOOKS FOR CHILDREN New York Evening Post It is fitting that the first award of the John Newbery medal for the best children's book of the year, made by vote of the nation's librarians, should go to a book quite as much read by adults as by children — Van Loon's "Story of Mankind." The worst children's books are those in which the author deliberately writes down for the adolescent mind; the best are books which one begins reading at 10 and keeps re-reading through life. English literature is peculiarly rich in fiction that is equally good for 9, 10, or 90, beginning with "The Pilgrim's Progress," "Gulliver's Travels," and "Robinson Crusoe," and coming down through Scott, Dickens, and Stevenson to the Pock's Hill stories. The belief that there is some weakness in a girl's mind that makes the "Elsie Books" her natural food and a boy's that confines him to Henry was always ridiculous and pernicious. There are children who rejoice at an amazingly tender age to be tumbled, like Charles and Mary Lamb, into a "spacious closet" of Elizabethan and other mature authors. The modern father, who looks up from a detective story to see Johnny poring over an abstruse treatise upon radio-telephony or the repair of motor engines has no excuse for failing to place a liberal estimate upon the tastes and capacities of the young idea. For children the path to a love of reading is made steadily easier. Modern children's books are among the most beautiful published, with their illustrations by Arthur Rackham, N. C., Wyeth, Maxfield Parrish, Howard Pyle, Jessie Wilcox Smith, and other artists. Few city libraries are without children's rooms and you to join in which indulge? Do the work? to climb self plan. If you seriously the race shall run friends a thought. the dollar ow on every one shall ward-look rather those graft the constrict destructive all well help.

The minority always has a big advantage in an election. It does not have such a rotten record to defend. A San Diegan in Paris writes home say he sits at a table on the boulevard with a glass of beer and watches the word go by. If he sits here long enough he'll see the lamp posts go by, too. Very few girls are as bad as they are painted; but lots of them are as white as they are powdered. Sir Lil' Co Co., the office respondent: "Grounds for divorce are usually little grounds."

If one can lift others, all well and good. It is helpful to help. But to join with those whose ideals, ambitions and habits are the opposite of one's own and to let one's self be influenced to go their way out of business hours is not the most efficient method to plan for success in the business career.
