THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER An Independent Newspaper, Issued Every Afternoon Except Sunday R. W. ERNEST, Manager PAUL V. HESTER, Editor California is the land of promise which fulfills its promise. When the opposing premiers of Europe get together in conference, it is the same old problem of the irresistible force meeting the immovable object. Another paralyzing of the coal-mining industry for a long period this year would be inexcusable. Miners and mine operators should work out an equitable agreement as to wages and working conditions on and after April 1, when the present agreement expires. If they fail to agree directly, they should submit their differences to arbitration by disinterested arbitrer, and should abide by their arbitrament. California will have many first-time visitors this winter. They should be greeted with especial cordiality. Coming to California for the first time is a notable event in the life of any person. Californians should make the coming as vividly impressive as possible, so that the first comer may become a regular corner, eventually a permanent resident. Many a self-manic man who has risen no power and affluence recalls the days when he was struggling along on a few dollars a week as the happiest period of his life. Which brings up the age-old question, "Is there more pleasure in pursuit than in possession," usually put affirmatively that there is more pleasure in pursuit than in possession. There is. Meet with flowers those with whom you associate—and do not wait until they are dead to present the flowers. Better to put more flowers daily on your friend's working desk, and fewer on his or her casket. Give flowers and kind words and appreciation to the living—the dead need them not. Travel to California this winter is heavy. This state grips the interest and affection of multitudes of persecuted individuals in cities of magnificent rigors. UNIVERSITY'S MISSION IN COMMUNITY Dr. W. W. Campbell, just elected to the presidency of the University of California, in praising the imminent university, which is to con-work of this great institution, gives a very graphic statement and definition of "the ultimate purpose" of the university, which is to contribute its full share to the advancement of our civilization through high scholarship in the student body and faculty and through the good citizenship of its alumni and professors in the state and nation." This is a high ideal for any university. It embraces not only the propagation and maintenance of high scholastic standards, but also the fostering of good citizenship among college-bred persons. This latter is a vitally important phase of higher education. Training in colleges and universities would be lacking in essentials if it did not fit men and women to be useful, honorable, public-spirited, patriotic citizens. JUDGES FOR MAJORITY VERDICT The greater number of Superior Court judges of Los Angeles County express themselves favorable to a change in the state law permitting juries in criminal cases to return verdicts by a three-fourths majority, except where the penalty is capital punishment or life imprisonment. Some jurists believe the change should apply to these cases also. Los Angeles County jurists also are overwhelmingly of the opinion that when a defendant in a criminal cause interposes the plea of insanity, bearing on the insanity court should be held before the trial, on the criminal charge. This would save the county a great deal of expense. Judges also favor the substitution of allists engaged by the court for experts hired by the defense and prosecution to pass upon the sanity of the accused.

Travel to California this winter is heavy. This state grips the interest and affection of multitudes of persons living in climes more rigorous. They come, and come again, season after season. Many of them, in course of time, come to stay permanently. And this will go on, year after year, decade after decade. If the United States were to plunge recklessly into every foreign squable, or if it were to be drawn into the political quarrels of other nations, it would cease to have influence in the world. Because of this country's dignified consistent attitude and its studious refraining from involving itself in the political quarrels of other nations, it has potential moral influence.

A. Hoeffler, of Shreveport, was married to Miss Pauline Musgrove at the residence of the bride's parents in Pelican, La., on Wednesday. A marriage is always an interesting event in a community, fraught with pleasing anticipation of a bright and happy future for the happy young couple, who with unhounded faith and unlimited confidence, each in the other, sever as it were, the many ties of life and launch forth in a new and untried world to form and sustain a new family circle, in which their happiness in this world, and perhaps in the world to come, is so intricately bound. However, in this case, we believe the blind Goddess of Love has made no mistake. — Manfield (La.) Enterprise. Sixty or more have been arrested at an army depot for stealing supplies. Foolish men! They should have manufactured them. India reports that 19,832 person-died of snake bite in that country last year. The Indian snake is as bad as Amreican booze. And So They Were Married Mr. Frank Jenkins of Greenfield and Miss Nellie Forest Overatake of Flincastle, O., were married at the office of Magistrate C. B. Fee Monday at 11 o'clock a.m. The day was cold, and dark, and dreary, the squire's stove was sighing for a draft and he, with poker in hand, was trying to lift the veil or rather set in motion the contents, when a handsome couple entered and stated their business, extending a paper with the name of Probate Judge Waters, with his seal attached. At this suspicious moment came Deputy Game Protector Srofe and Marshal Lucas stumbling up to the Preserving Human Voice—Berkeley (Cal.) Gazette. Suppose, in tearing down a building erected a century ago, the wreckers could extract from the cornerstone not only the old coins, newspapers, etc., usually deposited in such places, but the living voices of those who spoke in the ceremonies of dedication, or of the greatest statesmen, actors or singers than living. Who would not thrill at the sound of such voices from the past? In the future that will be done as a matter of course. The National Opera of France has just deposited in a vault phonographic records of the voices of the greatest singers of the present day. Such records, the experts say can be kept unimpaired for thousands of years in hermetically sealed jars. The same thing may soon be done systematically, not only with singers' voices but with the voices of important personage of all classes. And with them may be deposited film records, showing the personage in action. Posterity, then, as far removed from us as we are from the builders of the pyramids, may see and hear our great ones as they were in life. It will be a fascinating way to preserve history, and will provide such means as have never before existed for the perpetuation of language, art and manners. Our civilization, in nearly all its important aspects, can be preserved for the ill-immutable future. That is, it can, if our living civilization continues to carry on, bridging the gap between now and then. If wars increase and kill this civilization as others have been killed, by permitting poverty, disease and ignorance to follow ages of prosperity and enlightenment. What will those marvelous records mean to the decadent beings who dig them from... Getting sophisticated is just a slow process searching for another kick. Now if Wojciechowski is assassinated, we'll know that a linotype operator did it. Even a League of Nations can't keep a man with authority from ing an infernal ass. A modest man always feels a little cheated if you don't notice his modesty and praise him for it. Still, parents are permitted to see their daughter's beau at intervals when he stops in front of the house and honks. Russian workman gets 38,750 rubles a week. So they are having those dollar-a-year men over there now. There is no particular virtue in loving an enemy if you allow yourself the privilege of licking him first. Well, why shouldn't the bride have lots of clothes? It will probably be a long time before she gets any more. Poison is quicker, of course, but she can give him fried food three times a day and avoid embarrassing publicity. The surprising thing about that mint robbery is that anybody should care that much about mint in times like these. They say bandits in Mexico are courteous. Well, once in a while you find a courtcous hat-checking boy in this country. That chap who says there is no more faith in the world has very little knowledge of the hair-tonic business. "Archeologists find chorus girl." We have often wondered why those interested in antiquities didn't explore this field. In the old days people didn't mind the weather so much. They had no thermometers to tell them when they were uncomfortable. Even in this day of my ind jitneys, there is just as much horse sense in the country. But the horses still have a monopoly of it. Flacastle, O., were married at the office of Magistrate C. B. Fee Monday at 11 o'clock a.m. The day was cold, and dark, and dreary, the squire's stove was sighing for a draft and he, with poker in hand, was trying to lift the veil or rather set in motion the contents, when a handsome couple entered and stated their business, extending a paper with the name of Probate Judge Waters, with his seal attached. At this suspicious moment came Deputy Game Protector Srofe and Marshal Lucas stumbling up to the fire. The paper was rather ostentatiously handed to the visitors, was spelled out its contents. The deputy game protector vouched his opinion that the young man was permitted to hunt, though a stranger and an outlander, on the fertile domain of old Brdwn County and should, while off his reservation, not be considered as a "poacher." The marshal said he could not see wherein his services could be sought, as there was no charge of "speeding," this his efforts in unearthling stills of moonshine had met with many accomplishments, but he ventured to say, on the present occasion, he had discovered a casket of brilliant sunshine. The state's hired men were told to seat themselves and be conspicuous by their silence—a new phase in their busy lives. All parties joined in merry laughter. The youthful pair were required to rise, join their right hands and were soon united, for weal or woe, as the future may unfold. Congratulations were extended and the small assembly seemed well pleased. His honor tried to explain the unique ceremony, but he was hushed into innocuous desuetude by the bride's exclaiming, "The jolliest wedding ever," and the groom looked "Them's my sentiments, too." After the principals had departed the "super" (officials) straightened up with anxious, waiting eyes, in silent query.

It is much more blessed to give than to receive bills. Clemenceau increased America's knowledge, at any rate. Lots of us didn't know there was such a thing as onion soup.
