DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS Hatred and strife we see. Yes, for human nature is passionate and weak, and cannot be all at once and easily controlled; but love we also see, like sunlight shining through the clouds, or painting its beautiful bow of promise in the arching heavens above them. —Anonymous. The home broken by infidelity is a tragedy. Europe should bask in peace sunshine instead of being in the shadow of war clouds. Cleansing of the films should begin with the scenario and should permeate the whole process of production. Pictures should be clean from origin to finish. Every mine in this state should be made as safe as possible. No pains or expense should be spared in putting mines in condition not to hazard human life. The Turk is the bane of Europe. When encouraged, he becomes a serious menace. The Christian powers should hang together to hold him in check. Mrs. Harding's health continues to improve and the American people are gratified that they are not called upon to mourn the passing of the beloved "First Lady." Christians persecuted and murdered in the twentieth century in Europe is a spectacle too horrible to contemplate. The bloody Turk should be curbed in his diabolic activities. Politics should not be frenzied. Give quiet thought to political issues and candidacies. Intelligence and sound judgment, not passion and prejudice, should rule in politics. THE PENALTY OF LEADERSHIP In every field of human endeavor, he that is first must perpetually live in the white light of publicity. Whether the leadership be vested in a man or in a manufactured product, emulation and envy are ever at work. In art in literature, in music, in industry, the reward and the punishment are always the same. The reward is widespread recognition; the punishment, fierce denial and detraction. When a man's work becomes a standard for the whole world, it also becomes a target for the shafts of the envious few. If his work be merely mediocre, he will be left severely alone—if he achieve a masterpiece, it will set a million tongues a-wagging. Jealousy does not protrude its forked tongue at the artist who produces a commonplace painting. Whatsoever you write, or paint, or play, or sing, or build, no one will strive to surpass or to slander you, unless your work be stamped with the seal of genius. Long, long, after a great work or a good work has been done, those who are disappointed or envious, continue to cry out that it cannot be done. Spiteful little voices in the domain of art were raised against our own Whistler as a mountbank long after the big world had acclaimed him its greatest artistic genius. Multitudes flocked to Bayreuth to worship at the musical shrine of Wagner, while the little group of those whom he had dethroned and displaced, argued angrily that he was no musician at all. The little world continued to protest that Fulton could never build a steamboat, while the big world flocked to the river banks to see his boat steam by. The leader is assailed because he is a leader, and the effort to equal him is merely added proof of that leadership. Christians persecuted and murdered in the twentieth century in Europe is a spectacle too horrible to contemplate. The bloody Turk should be curbed in his diabolic activities. Politics should not be frenzied. Give quiet thought to political issues and candidacies. Intelligence and sound judgment, not passion and prejudice, should rule in politics. Extreme care should be exercised in framing laws. The quality of statutes should be above reproach. Each and every law should command respect by being worthy of respect. The best monument to the dead miners of the Arognaut would be to make the mine laws of the state so rigorous and their enforcement so effectual that there would be no preventable accidents in any mine. Stand by the schools. Give them every needed support. Provide ample housing. See that teachers are compensated justly. Take a lively interest in the work of the schools. The industrial atmosphere, the country over, is clearing. Settlement of the coal and rail strikes has driven the clouds away. The skies promise to be brighter throughout the fall and winter. Multitudes flocked to Bayreuth to worship at the musical shrine of Wagner, while the little group of those whom he had dethroned and displaced, argued angrily that he was no musician at all. The little world continued to protest that Fulton could never build a steamboat, while the big world flocked to the river banks to see his boat steam by. The leader is assailed because he is a leader, and the effort to equal him is merely added proof of that leadership. Falling to equal or to excel, the follower seeks to depreciate and to destroy—but only confirms once more the superiority of that which he strives to supplant. There is nothing new in this. It is as old as the world and as old as the human passions—envy, fear, greed, ambition, and the desire to surpass. And it all avails nothing. If the leader truly leads, he remains—the leader. Master-poet, master-painter, master-workman, each in his turn is sailed, and each holds his laurels through the ages. That which is good or great makes itself known, no matter how loud the clamor of denial. That which deserves to live—lives. Europe should be sowing the seeds of peace and concord. But it is not doing this as it should. The seeds of future wars are being sown. Homes at Guaranteed Prices "How much will I save by purchasing a Pacific home?" This is a question often asked.

Los Angeles NEW YORK LETTER By Lucy Jeanne Price NEW YORK, Sept. 28.—The old mansion at the northwest corner of Lafayette and Prince streets, where James Monroe, fifth president of the United States, spent his last years, has been saved, at last. It has been going to ruin for years through lack of care and attention, and lovers of American history have feared that it would some day before long be demolished. Commissioner Enright has announced that a purchaser has been found for the place and that it will be restored to its original condition. It will cost $10,000 to restore the interior. Two days after the announcement that Commander Evangeline Booth head of the Salvation Army in the United States, had been removed from that position by General Bramwell Booth, of London, the New York postal clerks thought an unreasonable Christmas impulse had hit the country. Literally thousands of letters came in protesting against this country losing its beloved army head. The latest protestor is William H. Anderson, head of the Anti-Saloon League, who included in his plea made yesterday, for her remaining here, a strong recommendation of her stand on the wet and dry question at the beginning of the First Salvation Army campaign. That came just when the opposition to the Eighteenth Amendment was being organized, and Miss Booth took a firm stand in the matter of eliminating James Speyer, banker, as chairman of the Salvation Army Campaign Committee, because he had announced himself as a "wet." Mr. Anderson indicated in his letter, an interest on the part of the whole "dry" forces in the retention of Miss Booth as the head of the army work in this country. It's all very well to live to be one in city residences. For blocks you walk up the street under the shade and protection of their obliging porte-cachere awnings, which flapping in the wind and lighted by the inside magnificence reminds one of the choice boulevard section in Paris or Berlin, yet grander than any. The famous restaurants have moved up there, and the names of Sherry, Pierre, Marguery, and the like, bid you enter to satisfy the inner man. At meal time this section is the fashionable romenade—the photographers have deserted "the avenue." COMMENTS OF THE PRESS UNTRUTHFUL, UNFIT MEN IN POLITICS Galveston Daily News When a man plants a tree for you he has to be a licensed forester. At least that is the rule in some places, and it is coming to be the rule in others. If he hauls your trunk from the railway station, he has a license for that. If he teaches your children, he has a license. If he looks at your sick dog, he has a license. He can't even put in your plumbing or string your light fixtures without a certificate of his ability safely and properly to perform those services. Preachers, lawyers, food handlers, chauffeurs pilots, and a long list of others all have licenses. But when a man decides to run for office and gets up on the platform with the representation of himself as able and capable at informing you about public affairs, no license is required of him. He can err or prevaricate about the fundamental facts of our government and none may deny him the right.

It's all very well to live to be one hundred or so in a home for aged people or trucked away in a relatives household. But to be an active business woman at 92 is cause for real pride. Down in Rivington street, Anna—whose last name sounded to me like "Murrerrer," but couldn't have been—conducts a dry goods business from a pushcart. She is approaching her 93rd birthday, and she waits on customers ten good hours a day and seems to enjoy it. Even in rainy weather there she is, protecting her goods with a rubber blanket, but not minding the rain herself. That's what I call "living" to be old. It is now said that the greatest volume of traffic in New York meets at the junction of the Grand Concourse, Vanderbilt and Park avenues. If there is one change in New York for the person who has been absent for some time it is this section. As you walk up a block or so on Park avenue and glance back, you can see a bit of the future New York. Sky-scrapers, constructed on the new zoning theory with their receding upper stories, rear up as a nest of towers giving a new home for business. An office building is under construction as far north as Forty-sixth street on Park avenue. Just next door to the beautiful business structures are the palatial co-operative apartment houses—the last word string your light fixtures without a certificate of his ability safely and properly to perform those services. Preachers, lawyers, food handlers, chauffeurs pilots, and a long list of others all have licenses. But when a man decides to run for office and gets up on the platform with the representation of himself as able and capable at informing you about public affairs, no license is required of him. He can err or prevaricate about the fundamental facts of our government and none may deny him the right. Not only may he offend in his manner. He does do it. Today on a score or more platforms the candidate is stating naked facts, drawing bogus conclusions, and appealing to false prejudices. And it's all to get votes. It doesn't cost the state of Texas, for example, $1000 a year to keep any student in any state institution of learning for a year. But the statement has been made several times in the current campaign for an office which involves state educational institutions as much as it does the material laws of Patagonia. It would be almost easier to enumerate the truthful assertions of candidates than to set down a list of the untruthful ones now being given currency. It is a pity that candidate can't be forced to undergo some sort of examination which will test their fitness to judge of the truth and their willingness to cleave to it, once they recognize it. If they could be placed under some sort of bond, moral or financial, to keep the truth, as it were, until safely elected to office, how different would politics be! Almost makes one wonder why a candidate doesn't come out on a platform of disagreeable truth just for the publicity which the novelty of the it would assure to him. The voter might catch the humor of it and vote for him out of respect for his nerve. Does the pilot of a steamship guide it from the steerage?—H. B. B. MR.

Moths will not eat holes in Swiss cheese. Kipling says he never said it. Maybe it was Debs who said it. A New York doctor, 96 years old, who smokes 60 cigarets a day, says his longevity is due to the fact that he has always minded his own business. This may give a clue to why so many men die young.
