DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS Blot from my book of life its early stain! Since days misspent will never more return, My future path do Thou in mercy trace. —PIETRO EMBO. The world is well-rid of despotic rulers. Trouble oftentimes is a blessing in disguise. Common sense and politics make a wholesome blend. Selfishness is a poison potion in the cup of happiness. Remember the World War veteran, to give him a square deal. God sees the intent of the heart. Man sees the outside veneer. Fretting over troubles lengthens the troubles and shortens life. Traffic should be made as safe as possible by every means possible. Why are so many persons generous with blame, but stingy with praise? When Russia and Japan fraternize, the western world would better look out. If the child has no home training in morals, where will it get moral stamina? Militarism is wholly at variance with Christianity, and wholly inconsistent with it. Optionism is ground in reason and good common sense more often than TURKEY'S DOOR IS OPEN, THANKS TO U.S. America's insistence upon the "open door" in Turkey is to be respected by the Allie, according to formal declaration made at the Lausanne conference. This is a moral and economic triumph for the United States. Turkey's sovereign rights are to be guaranteed and safeguarded, is the assurance given by the Allied powers. Turkey is to maintain its liberties and the "open door" is to be sustained in all economic matters. The United States is standing as staunchly for this "open door" principle in Turkey as it has stood for the same principle in China. The effect should be distinctly wholesome in the Near East, as it has been in the Far East. No country should be bottled up in its economic affairs or in its commercial relations with the powers of the world. There should be freedom of trade, and the door should be open to all countries. EUROPE A TINDERBOX The potentialities of war and bloody chaos in Europe are as strong today as they were in 1514. From the Urals and the Dardanelles to the Atlantic is one vast tinderbox. A general conflagration of war would start as easily today as it started in 1914. Any day might bring the starting. The spirit of militarism is abroad in Central Europe, in the Balkans, in Russia. There is feverish unrest, widespread suspicion and inflamed national and racial hatreds, prejudices and fears. If Europe ever needed great statesmanship to throw its influence into the scales in favor of peace, it needs it now. Masterful leadership might co-ordinate the forces and influences of peace and hold back the swelling tide of warlike passion. If this noble leadership is not forthcoming, it COMMENTS OF THE PRESS WHAT EDITORS ARE SAYING PROTECT BIG TREES—(New York Times) In his recent work on "Senescence," Dr. G. Stanley Hall speaks incidentally of the old age of others than human beings. Among the potential centenarians that he finds in the animal world are crows, eagles, savens, swans, elephants (supposed to be able sometimes to reach the age of 200), crocodiles and parrots. On the whole, they are not a particularly inviting company with whom to spend the senescent period of one's life. To find older and more congenial companions, one must go to the vegetable kingdom. Some plants live only a few hours, others for a few days and many only for a season, yet, even so, like the ephemerids in the animal world, never seeing their offspring. But in the same kingdom are trees, "the oldest of all itts that live." Methuselahs of the forests have reached the age of over 5600 years, thus spanning in one tree life practically the entire period of human life, as it was estimated in the Ussher chronology. Every one who cares for trees must wish to have a part in saving and prolonging the lives of those giants that have grown out of antiquity and so will be ready to join the "Save the Redwoods League" and assist in securing the needed Federal action for their protection. safely The danger of back-fire is entirely eliminated in the Triangle Water Heater (Automatic Gas) Our special Bunsen burner attends to that, besides insuring great economy in operation by reason of its complete combustion of gas.

CARTER Monrovia, Phone 148 TRIANGLE WATER HEATER CO LOS ANGELES SACRAMENTO US POSTES CAL PARAGRAPHS (By Robert Quillen) England has her minor concerns, but Asia Minor isn't one of them. The strangest thing about the Versailles Peace Treaty is that second word. An executive is a man who thinks the lunch hour means an hour and forty-five minutes. The trouble seems to be that there are shrewder brains to dodge taxes than to levy them. The klansman provides his own white robe. His feiows provide the whitewash when necessary. Too many of them seem to think that statesmanship consists in blocking the other fellow's game. Heinle can do many things well, but he doesn't seem impressive in the role of martyr. You can't hitch your wagon to a movie star. The only wagon about a movie star is a waggin' tongue. In books are heroes whodn't know the meaning of fear, but the authors never show them in a dentist's chair. In the old days, chivalry consisted in saying: "My I smoke?" Now it consists in saying: "Try one of mine." You can't always tell. A three-day growth of beard covers many an honest heart. There's always a brighter side. Countries, townships and municipalities haven't yet levied income taxes.

First total eclipse of the sun in 300 years is due here Sept. 10. Save your smoked glasses. Maybe the eclipse, if it lasts long enough, will give hard-working boot-leggers a chance to get in some overtime. A flaky substance, identified by a man from Iowa as snow, fell in the streets of San Jose. FARMER'S PIG "Sold yer pig?" "Yep." "What d'ye get?" "Thirteen dollars." "What'd cost to raise it?" "Paid $3 for the shoat, $5 for the pen and house, $5 for the feed." "Didn't make much, di ye?" "Nope, but I had the use of the pig all summer."—Argonaut.

You never realize how inefficient a man can be until you observe the way an old bachelor holds a baby. There is one thing the man who knows it all doesn't know. He doesn't know how many people long to kill him. A commodious dining room is one that has ample parking space for the accumulation of cut-glass. No wonder the Phillistines derided Samson. He must have looked funny with his bobbed hair half way back to normal. One shouldn't criticise too harshly. If may be that there's something wrong with Europe's thyroid gland. Pistols also cause loud talk, distress, widow's tears and death. Why not an amendment prohibiting their manufacture?

To meet your favorite poet search for him behind the printer's ink. The first sign of vulgarity finds its inception in thought. It is easier to trespass on others' rights than to make amends for same. It is preferable to be fit to do your work today than to expect a good night's rest to fit you for tomorrow.

KINGS AND PESTS In Egypt explorers have dug into the tomb of an ancient king, unearthing treasures worth an estimated 40 million dollars. The whole affair has been thrillingly romantic, revealing that the rulers of Egypt had fabulous luxuries, ut— The latest finds are lyswatters, which sort of takes the edge off the romance of being a king. Even kings (thanks be!) are susceptible to the pests of life—flies, itch, dirt and monotony. Isn't it about time for Jackie Coogan to write an article on, "How I Made My First Dollar?"
