THE COUNTY COUNTY PLAIN DEALER An independent Newspaper, Issued Every Afternoon Except Sunday R. W. ERNEST, Manager PAUL V. HESTER, Editor DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS Why is it that God thus brings Himself to our notice? Why has He implanted in our nature that which so compels our thoughts to turn toward Himself. It is because the soul must come to God. It has no other resting-place for its thoughts; no other answer for its inquiries; no other center for its aspirations; no other foundation for its hopes.—Dr. Owen Street. Nothing hurts California today unless it be growing palms. Worry among the people makes work for the grave-diggers. Making trouble seems to be the principal occupation in Europe at present. His foreign relations trouble Uncle Sam as much as some people's poor relations trouble them. Radio, fifteen years ago, was an "fridescent dream." Today its marvelous achievements are common. Peace should rest upon principle and upon honor. If it always were thus based, seldom would it be broken.

The amudge-not is not elegant to look at, but it surely is a godsend to citrus growers during frosty weather. The farmer should have all the credit that he reasonably needs to expand his farming operations and to market his crops. BUDGET FOR THE STATE OF VAST INTEREST Taxpayers of California await eagerly the announcement, in detail, of the new state budget. It is hoped and confidently expected that substantial reductions will be made in the estimated outgo from the state treasury in the next biennium. The people have been promised this they expect it and they believe that they are to get it. Governor Richardson alone cannot give the retrenchments that are needed. The Legislature must co-operate. Should the spirit of wanton extravagance break loose in the Legislature, the people sterily should demand that it cease. They have the right to be served with economical care. They should insist upon businesslike retrenchment in handling governmental affairs. Wherever expenses can be curtailed without impairing efficiency of government, the curtailment should be made. COLORADO RIVER PACT IS WORTHY SUPPORT California would be materially advantaged beyond calculation by ratification of the Colorado River pact by this and the other states in the great basin which this stream drains. It would be a good stroke of public policy for California to push this damming project vigorously. This state stands to benefit stupendously in three ways: By control of floods, which will prevent loss running into millions; by impounding waters for irrigation, which will be enormously beneficial, in making possible the reclamation of vast acresages in the Colorado River valley, in this state, and by the generating of electric power.

There always should be pride in these democratic centers of learning. If there is to be American interposition in Europe, it should come quickly. The threatened conflagration over there is about to break. Some women in tough dresses are more refined and more attractive than some women arrayed in silks, satins and rare lace and jewels. The year 1823 may be made notable by conquest of the Pacific Ocean by air. It is to be hoped that American aviators may achieve the honor of being the first to cross the Pacific by air. Commerce in the Pacific is increasing mightily. The Panama Canal is giving great impetus to trade in this ocean. There is a natural flow of development both on these western shores of America and in the Orient.

They found out they had come to be the sights. The tallest building, the museums, and the Statue of Liberty itself aroused less excitement in them than they aroused in Manhattanites. Fortunately they had sufficient sense of the fitness of things to wear their Pueblo fashions and not ours, and they added the most interesting note to Fifth avenue which it has known in many a day. I wouldn't be a bit surprised if our spring styles would show the effect. The second "Romeo and Juliet" of the season has arrived, and has met with acclaim. Jane Cowl, as then new "Juliet" interprets the role in a poetic and imaginative way, which delighted the firstlighters, and the spiited Romeo of Rollo Peters' picturesque and romantic. All of the passion and the pathos of the play is brought out in this production at the Henry Miller theatre. In the potion scene, Miss Cowl, unleashed her battery of emotional ability which marks her talent so splendidly. I have smuggled a dog into the theatre; once when I was quite young, I took a pet squirrel to church; but never have I taken a parrot to the theatre. The other night, while a crowded house was intensely watching a most effective scene in one of the new historical COMMENTS OF THE PRESS CLINIC FOR SPEECH (Berkeley (Cal.) Gazette) As a part of its better speech training for pupils, one high school has established a clinic for all persons whose speech is hampered, not by ignorance of good English, but by physical defects, nervousness, nasality and twang, foreign accent and other curable difficulties. This clinic is free to the whole public. Voice and throat tests have already disclosed that in a majority of cases the defects could be corrected by speech education without medical aid. Some cases require surgical or dental attention. A great many of the difficulties are directly caused by mental or nervous disturbances. These are treated to relax muscle tenseness, and to develop new habits of nerve control. General vitality, poise and mental control are emphasized, for they are very helpful to articulate, agreeable and effective speech. Patients who attend the clinic may have individual, confidential attention if they desire. Thorough examination, followed by expert advice and full instructions as to procedure are, frequently, enough to set the boy or girl on the road to improvement. Where acute cases demand systematic, scientific and extended care, that may be arranged for. Here is a practical service to the community which many schools could offer. Although not every teacher of English or of public speaking has the knowledge and training to do this work, it would not be an impossible standard to require one such expert in every com- PARAGRAPHS (By Robert Quillen) One seed catalogue doesn’t make a spring. A friendly nation is one that doesn’t roar with envy while you grab. Heinle is free to choose. He can dig up or let the French dig in. Some people think they are thrifty just because they wish they hadn’t spout so much last month. The difference between poetry and verse is that you can find verse in many modern publications. If little Willie is baffled by his arithmetic, don’t worry. He may make a great detective some day. We have often wandered whether “Ham actor” refers to Hamlet or the ham-and-combination suggested by the egg bombardment. You can’t tell by the looks of a woman’s fur coat how soon her husband will finish the installments. The greater the aridity of a banquet, the greater the stupidity of the speeches that follow. Cigarettes don’t cost you so very much, unless you have a few close friends who have sworn off. All things are relative. The rich are warm and secure in their houses. But so are those in jail. The man of noble lineage who doesn’t amount to a darn must find great consolation in scorching self-made men. Some of the poor doughboys must leave their wives. For that matter, some must leave their German police dogs. It isn’t so difficult to turn brass into money. The boy with the hat-checking privilege does it. A surgeon may be a wonder in his line, but did you ever watch one trying to carve a roast? When you dream of icebergs, you don’t need any Freud to tell you that you wish the wife would get up and set an extra quilt. Germany thinks it a crime to seize her mines. She doesn’t believe in organizin’ a zouave troupe. He comes from a military family, as his gran'father cleaned up durin’h th' Civil War an' his father durin’h th' world war. All of the passion and the pathos of the play is brought out in this production at the Henry Miller theatre. In the potion scene, Miss Cowl, unleashed her battery of emotional ability which marks her talent so splendidly. I have smuggled a dog into the theatre; once when I was quite young, I took a pet squirrel to church; but never have I taken a parrot to the theatre. The other night, while a crowded house was intently watching a most effective scene in one of the new historical films, a loud and raucous "S-q-u-a-w-k" split the air. The audience was more startled than it had been by the duel scene just enacted, and a thousand heads turned simultaneously in an effort to locate the source. Several times it was repeated before I discovered that the woman sitting right in front of me had brought her parrot with her. It took about ten minutes of squawking before she was sufficiently convinced that Poll didn’t care for pictures and took him away. It was a drenched and disconsolate detective who went into the West Side Court to testify against one Edward Flynn, charged with violation of the Eighteenth amendment. “Your honor,” said Detective Hall, “I was in the subway bringing the evidence, when all of a sudden it banged—bong—bung—on me. There’s nothing left except the smell. And I got all wet.” There was nothing to do but discharge Mr. Flynn for lack of evidence. Twelve thousand nine hundred dollars was the price paid at the Anderson Galleries the other night for “the most important play with the exception of Shakespeare's own, that has ever been offered for sale.” It was “The Tragedie of Dido, Queene of Carthage,” by Christopher Marlowe and Thomas Nash, printed in London in 1594. Only two other copies of the play are known and they are both in museums. The purchaser of the volume was Dr. A. S. W. Rosenbach, who made twenty purchases at the sale. Averaging more than $200 each. I have noticed a stand shaving mirror of small size, such as one seen in well equipped bath rooms, on the elegant mahogany desk in the office of Ernest Aimless. I have long curbed my curiosity about it but recently asked why. His reply and reasoning was typical: "I frequently write my own letters on the typewriter and invariably get the carbon in wrong. When the letter is done over I save the cost of a second sheet by retaining the letter that would ordinarily be thrown away. With the aid of the mirror the carbon side serves as a real carbon."

She doesn't believe in anything more drastic than dynamiting and flooding. It's a hard world. And about the time a man learns to be hard-headed his arteries get that way, too.
