DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS Help to be happy those thine aid can bless, Mindful of thine own day of helplessness.—From the Persian, by Sir Edwin Arnold. An honest, intelligent, independent ballot is an impressive, majestic thing. If the good citizen does not vote, how is good government to be sustained? Train children into moral living and thinking and the breakwater for "crime waves" will have been found. Dishonesty in little things is even more contemptible than dishonesty in large things. For large dishonesties offer greater temptation than the petty ones. California moves forward steadily. Its economic progress is unhalted, even though serious industrial crises may prevail in other parts of the country. It is thriving now, and there is prospect of a favorable fall and winter. This Nation's defenses should be on this Western side of the continent. It is from this side, if from any source, that the United States would be menaced. The defense system should be strongest where the likelihood of attack is greatest. The alien who will not Americanize to the extent of being loyally and peacefully subject to the government of the United tates, and respectful toward its government and institutions, should be sent back to the country whence he came. The taxpayer should be befriendly. PRESIDENT MUST PLAY AT INTERVALS President Harding has been invited to visit the Coney Island Mardi Gras, in New York. He wants to go. But he can't. He would like to steal away for a few days and ride the rollercoasters and indulge in the innocent hilarity of the carnival. It would relieve him immensely from the strain and stress of official responsibility. But the iron hand of duty is hard upon him. He must decline the invitation to go and be a boy again and romp and frolic, as even stalk Presidents would do. It is one of the gratifications in connection with human nature that, no matter how far men or women advance in worldly station and honors; no matter to what power or to what exalted position they climb, there remains in them the yearning for the homely simplities of early life. The man who holds the power and dignity of President of the United States many times longs, with heart brimming over with fond recollections, to be a boy again, and go barefoot, and go wading and swimming and fishing; to play ball on the sandlots; to hunt, and to roam the fields and woods and hills, free from care and exultant in the joy of living. The man who thus yearingly reverts to the pleasures of boyhood is neither old nor mean in spirit. WOMAN QUALITIES FOR DIPLOMATIC WORK Miss Lucille Atcherson of Columbus, Ohio, has the distinction of being the first woman to qualify, through examination, for a position in the United States diplomatic service. This service is open to women, although the consular service is not. Women are becoming prominent and proficient in practically all the duties of the office. It is from this side, if from any source, that the United States would be menaced. The defense system should be strongest where the likelihood of attack is greatest. The alien who will not Americanize to the extent of being loyally and peacefully subject to the government of the United tates, and respectful toward its government and institutions, should be sent back to the country whence he came. The taxpayer should be befriended at every opportunity. His burdens are heavy. Few take the trouble or the pains to strive for his relief. It has come to pass that he must look keenly and rigorously to the protection of his own interests, else his interests get no protection. The best in housing; the best in equipment; the best in teaching, should be provided for the schools. Anything and everything that contributes to the comfort of pupils and teachers and that conserves their health, and augments the effectiveness of school work, should be given generously by the public. California is especially fortunate as to the quality of homeseekers who come here. Men and women of standing and repute in the localities whence they come are to be found here in quest of homes. They add materially to the excellence of community life. It is well for older residents of the community to let these desirable newcomers know how welcome they are. WOMAN QUALITIES FOR DIPLOMATIC WORK Miss Luccile Atcherson of Columbus, Ohio, has the distinction of being the first woman to qualify, through examination, for a position in the United States diplomatic service. This service is open to women, although the consular service is not. Women are becoming prominent and proficient in practically all the departments and bureaucats of the United States government. Truth is, the fact that women hold responsible positions and that they fill them quite acceptably no longer is subject for remark. It is taken as matter of course. With experience, women develop abilities that entitle them to fair show in obtaining and holding posts of importance and of high responsibility. This is one of the gratifying phases of the phenomenal advancement of the sex. Beautiful women are seldom wise, and frequently they are not good. The one thing in a house that is used most and lasts longest is the looking glass. Heck! No sooner do we get rid of the campaign cigars than here comes the circus with pink lemonade. In Kentucky a petrified foot was found 32 feet underground. but Kentucky roads are better now than they once were.

TOWN IN REVIEW A motorist friend tells us he has been out detouring the back country. MUST BE A PRIMARY ELECTION Scientific note: Dust clouds are being seen on Mars. At several spots they are whirling. Another automobile party escaped death at a railroad crossing Sunday. The train must have been late. The man of the hour in Ireland is lucky if he lasts that long. ANIXIOUS TO KNOW He—Saw Minnie with her new bathing suit under her arm. She—Is the latest style?—Stanford Chaparral. A QUEER ONE Walter Undras, sculptor, got discouraged fighting for fame. He went to the Chicago Art institute and shot himself through the head before the statue of "Winged Victory." The statue, by the way, is headless, indicating the victory is not always by brain. Undaras goes into the hereafter with the last penny of his debts pald. He shoved aside art and worked as a clerk to get enough money to wipe the slate clean before leaving. That is exceptional in suicides, who usually kill themselves to avoid facing obligations. If the winter comes will the freight trains be far behind? A Spokane golfer walked 53 miles in one day. Hope he found it. DOUBLING UP While Horace Mann, the famous educator, was out detouring the back country. NEW YORK, Cept. 6.—Coney Island felt like the exhibitor of the giraffe, the other day. You remember the old story of the man with fifteen children who inquired how much it would cost to take them all in to see the circus animal. The ticket seller surveyed the mob in amazement, and then said, "Come on in free, and let the giraffe look at you!" Well, a delegation of Bishops in knee breeches making the rounds of Coney Island was as curious and intriguing a sight to the barkers and crowds of Coney as the "shoot the chatter" and "roly poly" were to the Bishops. The Most Reverend Edward Hutson of the Island of Antigua, Archbishop of the West Indies," adjourned the synod of the hierarchy of the Province of the West Indies, which is holding a six days' session here, and he and the Bishops made the excursion to Coney. They made a complete round of amusements, ate "hot dogs" and threw baseballs at the dummy figures, all in their knee breeches with leggings, clerical coats with black silk aprons, and low round felt hats with three tassels danglin from three separate corners. Wooden shoes! One never thinks of their being worn any more, certainly not on Manhattan Island. But there is an excellent market here for them, according to the mistress of a French show. The tops are of leather, to be sure, but the soles are thick and heavy, carved out of chunks of wood by the jack knives of peasants somewhere in France. "They are worn in kitchens, that's all I know," the uncommunicative Frenchwoman. Next t'a certain widely known carther hain't nothing' that makes as much noise for its size as a wren. Ther's few things more painful than kickin' a burglar with your bare foot. It doesn't look as if this coming season would be a dull one.

Hope he found it. DOUBLING UP While Horace Mann, the famous educator, was sitting in his study one day, an insane man rushed into the room and challenged him to fight, says the Boston Transcript. "My dear fellow," replied Mr. Mann. "it would give me great pleasure to accommodate you but I can't do it, the odds are so unfair. I am a Mann by name and a man by nature—that's two against one!" "Oh, come ahead!" the insane man answered. "I am a man and a man beside himself. Let's us four have a fight!" TOM SIMS REPORTS Lousisana wins the prize for the first game warden shot this year. Lil' Gee Gee says: "Big floppy hats and ears are among the fall styles." People who walk in their sleep should know the town. Lightning struck a fishing schooner. Pehaps the men were thinking up what they were going to tell when they got home. Wooden shoes! One never thinks of their being worn any more, certainly not on Manhattan Island. But there is an excellent market here for them, according to the mistress of a French show. The tops are leather, to be sure, but the soles are thick and heavy, carved out of chunks of wood by the jack knives of peasants somewhere in France. "They are worn in kitchens, that's all I know," the uncommunicative Frenchwoman declared. It was a joy to see Wilton Lackaye in "The Monster," not only because he gives an interpretation of an almost incredible character in this thriller of thrillers, but because it was so delightfully reminiscent of his portrayal of Svengalli, in his old success, "Trilby". He is the same suave mystic, except that he threatens to cut with the surgeon's knife and clec- It doesn't look as if this coming season would be a dull one. The mood of the people toward prosperity is reflected with considerable accuracy in the ependitures of our merchants. They are too wary to go in heavily for European buying if the prospects of sales are dim. And when the Olympic arrived in port the other day she carried 4,000 trunks, most of them belonging to buyers, and some of them pretty nearly as big as a beach bungalow. Watch & Jewelry repairing.

Register There is a wide difference, sometimes, between an opinion based on prejudice and judgment based on sane thought and investigation. The two may coincide, but too often we take our prejudice as our judgment; some of us are prone to declare our opinions without having first applied either sane thought or investigation. Isn't that particularly true during campaign times? "You Could Study This Subject at Home" is subject of an editorial in Collier, and in connection with what has already been written in this editorial, let us have it: Here is a really sensible effort on the part of an educator to eliminate prejudice in the minds of students. Edwin L. Clarke of Ohio University, assistant professor of sociology, teaches a course called "Eliminating Prejudice," the object of which is to train students to realize that much may be said on both sides of a question. Each student is asked to write a theme outlining his most violent prejudice against a social, religious, or political group. Then he is required to re-write this paper, eliminating all charges that he would not care to attempt to prove before the Supreme Court of the United States. As a third assignment he must write a defense of the group. Then a fourth paper is written to explain how much of his antipathy is based on reason and how much on prejudice. Finally, he must discuss what he can do to free himself of his prejudice. We recommend this course of training. It will help to eliminate puffling politics, industrial hatred, social snobbery, and the many other prejudices that interfere with our national progress.
