DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS A man's true wealth is the good he does in this world. When he dies, mortals will ask: What property has he left behind him? But angels will inquire: What good deeds has thou sent before thee? —Mahomet. No election is impressive unless a representative heavy vote is polled. Give the public a chance to say whether or not it wants big industrial wars which do vast harm to public interests. Instead of striving for easy divorce laws, why not strive for successful marriages, so that divorce laws would not be needed? Good housekeeping is an accomplishment of which any woman should be proud—an accomplishment in women which men should praise and appreciate. Congress is lacking in eminent aggressive leadership. But nothing can be done about it, inasmuch as leaders cannot be brought forth to order, like a tailor-made suit or a course dinner. The imperative need of co-operation and conciliation in industry becomes more and more apparent. The country is suffering unmercifully, cruelly and needlessly because of lack of co-operation and conciliation in industrial affairs. One may abuse one's health with impunity for a long time. But there will come a day when outraged health will rise in rebellion and go over to the side of the cohorts of disease. Many a person would not stand to be treated as shamefully as he or she treats his or her health. Rio de Janeiro is to have a great centennial exposition in celebration of 'the one-hundredth anniversary of Brazil's achievement of national independence.' One may abuse one's health with impunity for a long time. But there will come a day when outraged health will rise in rebellion and go over to the side of the cohorts of disease. Many a person would not stand to be treated as shamefully as he or she treats his or her health. Rio de Janeiro is to have a great centennial exposition in celebration of the one-hundredth anniversary of Brazil's achievement of national independence. Rio is one of the most beautiful cities in the world. It is of metropolitan proportions, too, with a population of about 1,200,000. It is progressive, and in some things that are desirable it is even in advance of cities of the United States. Lax divorce laws encourage laxity in married life. It should be made more difficult, rather than easier, to obtain divorces—particularly in cases where there is no valid reason for trying to get a divorce. Efforts and influences should be concentrated upon strengthening the marriage tie, rather than providing ways and means and setting in motion steps and influences for the breaking down of marriage as an institution. To avoid being swindled, do not invest in any stock or enterprise presented by a stranger, without very thorough investigation of the proposition. When a stranger offers you unusual returns on an investment, be wary. Is it reasonable to suppose that, if he had an extraordinarily good investment opportunity he would seek out a total stranger and give him or her the benefit of it? Common sense applied in these things keeps one from becoming the victim of swindlers.

WHY HE INSISTED A clergyman was having tea with a family newly settled in his parish. On the sideboard were several decanters, filled with what looked like spirits. "My friend," he said to his hostess, "you should avoid even the appearance of evil. I do not suggest that you drink, but—" "Why, Vicar, they're only filled with furniture polish. It's the decanters-I like; they're so pretty!" "Exactly," said the Vicar, "Avoid even the appearance of evil. I repeat. I helped myself to a drink from the big decanter in the middle."—Judge.

The purpose of politics seems to be to keep people from getting what they want. It is simply amazing how little you can get along with when you have to. One good thing about an automobile is that it makes so many new troubles that you forget all about the old ones. Making things is easy; selling them isn't TAKE WHOLE ARMY TO MAKE PICTURE When a big motion picture troupe goes on location, there is a whirlwind of activity, exemplifying the immense scope of motion picture production as an institution. For example, see what was done when James Cruze, director, took Wallace Reid, Paramount star; Lila Lee, his leading woman, and his company to a So. Cal. location to film South American scenes for "The Dictator," which will be shown today at the California Theater. It required all the spare rooms of four large hotels to provide accommodations for the troupe, which consisted of more than a hundred people, including staff, cast and extras. Eleven hundred additional people were engaged by advertisement, on the site of the work, to play the pseudo-South American rebel and federal armies which have a battle in the story. These men were employed several days. Large supplies of South American wardrobe and uniforms were taken down from the studio for the players and extras. The chief of the Lasky studio wardrobe and three of his assistants accompanied the unit, to check and take care of the wardrobe supplies. The property man took along nine hundred guns from the studio prop room for use by the soldier-extras. Twenty carriages of the nobility type were secured in Los Angeles after the city had been scoured by property men, and taken south to be used in the scenes. Horses were hired on the spot. More than two thousand spectators congregated every day to watch the filming of the scenes. The appearance of a result. THREE INJURED IN UPSET Mr. and Mrs. Lonnie K.

SPECIAL ELECTION Sept. 26 has been set for the special election on the proposition to incorporate Garden Grove. Much opposition to the plan has been removed by the supervisors, who changed the boundaries of the proposed new city. POMONA BANK EXPANDS POMONA, Sept. 1 (Spl.)—The American National Bank has been given authority by the comptroller of the currency to increase its capital from $100,000 to $175,000.

Gazette In speaking at the commencement exercises of the University of Michigan, Secretary of State Hughes made a timely plea for a "new sense of civic responsibility in matters of international concern," and for the repression of efforts to create suspicion, distrust and hatred among nations. "The chief enemies of peace," he said, "are those who constantly indulge in the abuse of foreign peoples and their governments, who asperse their motives and visit them with ridicule and insult. "Intercommunication is so easy that domestic discussions of foreign affairs are not confined within the three-mile limit, but are immediately published abroad, not as indicative of the sentiment of particular individuals who may be of little relative consequences, but as indicating the sentiments of our people. It is in this way that people become separated by mutual distrust, even while their responsible agents of governments are endeavoring to bring about beneficial settlements and mutual confidence. "The principal difficulty at this time in our conduct of foreign affairs is not with methods, or organization, or aims, but with the untruthful, prejudiced and inflammatory discussions in which some of our citizens and certain sections of the press permit themselves to indulge." It is not by any means a new situation, but it is one that deserves the attention of responsible citizens and newspapers. The world, nearly four years after the armistice, is still unsettled politically. Nations are still suspicious and jealous of each others' motives. And the trouble, as Secretary Hughes intimates, comes less from any fundamental obstacles or hopeless differences of interest among the quarreling nations than from the inflammatory utterances of citizens who ought to know better. When neighbors abuse each other across the fence, community of interest suffers and there is bound to be a fight sooner or later. Why cannot citizens who are good neighbors in their own street, city state and country be also good neighbors across international boundaries? There has been more acrimony in the state primary campaign just closed than is good for parties, candidates or the people. It would be far better for all concerned if, in future, ante-primary canvasses were seasoned with more amenities and good will. THE Lady Mary "Gifts that Last" THE Lady Mary "Gifts that Last" DELICACY of subdued ornament, graceful lines, and softly lustrous surfaces lend a quiet distinction to the simplicity of this early 18th Century design, fashioned from solid silver. Just as Lady Mary Wortley Montagu was the 18th Century leader among women of culture, so today, the Lady Mary tableware and dinner service dominates all other distinguished patterns of that period. All solid silver is marked "STERLING!" The word "STERLING" stamped on Lady Mary silverware is the mark which may be used only on solid silver—pure, enduring silver of the U.S. Govt. standard of quality. Look for the "STERLING" imprint.
