DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS There are some hearts like wells, green-mossed and deep As ever summer saw; And cool their water is—yea, cool and sweet— But you must come to draw. Good music is refining and cultural. There is a generality of thriving in business and industry throughout the country that promises to make the winter lively, with employment for all who seek it. California sampled the country, in 1920, its hospitable manner of entertaining big national political conventions. It is ready to do even better in 1924, by one or both of the great party convocations. Something practical and helpful should be done to promote the United States merchant navy and to sustain it. Congress should not evade Alias highly important problem or impregnate it with politics. There is that in the Christmas spirit which draws individuals and whole nations more closely together in bonds of affection, sympathy, peace and good will. That which the herald agents proclaimed—"On earth peace, good will toward men"—is the very essence of the true Christmas spirit. Help the helpless. Not necessarily with money, but with a smile or a cheering word. Often times a little diffusing of sunshine among invalids does them more good—makes life more tolerable for them—than if they were given material aid. The soul gets hungry as well as the body, NO SUPPORT BY U. S. OF MARTIAL EUROPE As the troubled affairs of Europe pass from one critical stage to another, the attitude of the United States becomes a question of absorbing interest to the world. This attitude is not fully and explicitly defined. Until it is so defined, by President Harding or Secretary Hughes, all is conjecture. It may be assumed, however, that the United States will not entangle itself with the domestic quarrels of Europe. Nor will this country take up European burdens and crises which are essentially political. Furthermore, this country will not lend money to Europe unrestrictedly, much of which might be used in building up and maintaining great armaments over there. Europe, in other words, must set itself in order as a condition precedent to receiving material aid for this country. That help in some form and under some conditions will be extended Europe by the United States erelong there is every reason to believe, provided Europe itself co-operates and makes the way possible for this Nation to interpose with aid without stultifying itself and without embroiling itself in the domestic political quarrels and jealousies of the continent overseas. Clara Phillips is a feminine Roy Gardner in elusiveness. There is a haven for the denizens of those climes where blizzards are ragging and temperatures descend below zero—a haven of mild temperatures and genial skies; but Southern California is too modest to name this haven.

People saving for a rainy day find Christmas an annual cloudburst. Will Hays announces he will bar from the movies all persons who use drugs, and what's a man going to do when he needs a bromo-seltzer? Hitting in the clinches is barred on the field, but not in the bleachers. It is reported that the man who invented the first college yell is still in the skyline.

NEW YORK, Dec. 19.—Future visitors of New York may have to bring along their own pounds of beetsteak and baked potatoes, in case they don't like fish; for we are to be an exclusively fish-sustained city within a few years, according to Dr. Royal Copeland, our health commissioner. There are too many of us, he says, and we are too much cut off by waterways to make it possible for the surrounding country to support us very much longer. It isn't a pleasant thought to those of us who try not to groan when we are invited to sea-food dinners. The work of Coue and other systems of mind training meet with the approval of Hazel Dawn, dramatic star under the A. H. Woods' banner, who believes that when a person tries to add to his mental powers it indicates having a mentality worth cultivating. But in addition to considering her mind, a woman should also consider the physical, says Miss Dawn for the two are joined closely in the feminine organization. "Hand in hand with woman's mental training goes physical training and the keeping well by means of right living and the proper aids", says Miss Dawn. "According to my notion, one of the important alios for the modern woman is not only keeping in the pink of physical condition but also having the mental feel that her clothes set well on her. If women devoted more attention to the foundation—the corset—they would not have to spend so much money on the externals of dress. I venture to say that much of the adornment on many... PARAGRAPHS ("3y Robert Quillen") The man who shoots the bull usually is a calf and easily cowed. "Royal flush" refers to a modern game; "royal four-flush" to a modern king. We are a little further advanced. We don't impeach our cabinet members with a firing squad. Our theory is that eventually all civilizations perish under the weight of their dead letter laws. When mother and the girls get through buying gifts, old dad will know how the Ten Commandments feel. It's a funny combination. Russia trusts Turkey; Turkey trusts America, and America trusts to luck. As a rule we pay dearly for our big times, but when Jonah went out for a whale of a time he came out all right. Still, it isn't reasonable to expect government to protect Americans abroad if it can't be done at home. Tax-free securities are all right in their way, but if we all were tax free there would be no security. We never realized how little dignity the "Mister" could confer until people began to call him Mr. Hohenzollern. There is no danger of a rupture between America and England while they continue to enjoy one another's slang. Natural resources are a menace. Every little country having them needs the watchful care of some big country. Our wonderful automobiles will tell future generations much about us; and the locking devices on them will tell the rest. "Joy cometh in the morning," sang the Psalmist. But he didn't have to make the fires. It's just as well that women don't understand politics. No man enjoys the knowledge that his wife knows more than he. No matter what you think of the taste of a young man who gets married in times like these, you can't let the girl, give the little girl something for Christmas the little boy will enjoy breaking. YES Reader asks if a bald man has a permanent wave to his hair. The Oregon boxer who boxes under the name of Broken Blossom is not Jess Willard, it is said. A cold wave is reported coming south, maybe because it couldn't get recognition in the north just now. Latest alibi is that the Los Angeles county jail caters only to tranzents, anyhow. THAT'S WHAT THEY ALL SAY Mr. E. P. Coleman, Jr., who two weeks ago went up to Cody, New Brunswick, to join his wife who was already there on a visit to the loved ones at her old home, reached home this morning and was, of course, accompanied by his wife, for, as he says, time drags too slowly with the madam away—Sardis (Miss.) Reporter. The state highway commission has just condemned 19 miles of coast road near Santa Monica. One guess is that 199,476 were ahead of them. It's been a week now since Los Angeles had a murder sensation; but they strive to please. They've re-opened the Taylor case. Fair Warning Chicken will be on the menu at the Chamber of Commerce luncheon again next week. This time it will be served by the women of the United Brethren Church—Columbus (Ind.) Republican. The Turks want to trade with us. We could trade them our Turkish baths, Turkish towels and Turkish cigarettes. Six tons of cranberries were burned in a New York fire. Cooking steadily, it would take 100 brides two weeks, four days and six minutes to burn this many. "Emperors" Strawberries, rushed from Florida in refrigerator express cars, sell in New Yor City for $2.50 a quart, wholesale. Served in small portions in hotels, probably $5.00 or more a quart. Many who wouldn't pay that much for a quart will pay 50 cents or more for a few dished up in cracked ice. Principle's the same. Ancient emperors dined on humming-bird tongues, brought long distances by relays, of swift runners. Modern money emperors go them one better, with strawberries at $2.50 a quart wholesale. "Joy cometh in the morning," sang the Psalmist. But he didn't have to make the fires. It's just as well that women don't understand politics. No man enjoys the knowledge that his wife knows more than he. No matter what you think of the taste of a young man who gets married in times like these, you can't help admiring his nerve.

Striebel Mr. Gore goes at the work of Santa Claus in a thorough way. He visits the children's homes and gets acquainted with them and finds out what size in clothes they wear before he selects their gifts. People are honest, after all. More than that, other people know they are. This in spite of our occasional cynical expressions of doubt about our fellow-belongs. I realize it every time I pass a package mail box here in New York around Christmas time. The tops of the boxes are packed high with parcels which could not be squeezed into the overflowing receptacle. Few people eat all the pie in which they had their fingers. Blessed are those who know what they are doing and give themselves a fair chance. A scalp may not nourish a growth of hair but may house prolific brains. As sugar will preserve healthy fruit so will fruit help to preserve "MAKE THIS A Radio Christmas Get You Radio in Time for the Special Holiday Concerts Our special concert set makes it possible for the whole family to enjoy these programs.

Just Plain Facts, Here, But They Speak Out Loud Auxiliary seat provides arm-chair comfort for the fourth passenger, and folds completely out of the way when not required. The top is of sound-sobbing construction; muffling mechanical noise, instead of accentuating them. Door and side windows slide gently and quietly in lift-lined channels; rear window glass is softly emdeded in rubber. Thus are window curtains delicately match with the shade of upholstering, and are on spring rollers. A neat parcel compartment behind the driver's seat, and an extra roomy one on the rear deck provide simple storage space for baggage. The new style visor is of pleasing convenience; so is the cowl ventilator. Step mats—corrugated rubber, aluminum framed, have self-contained kick plates and scrapers.
