DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS Nor can the vain toll cease, Till, in the shadowy maze of life, we meet. One who can guide our aching, wayward feet To find Himself, our way, our Life, our Peace. In Him the long unrest is soothed and stilled— Our heart are filled. —Sunday Magazine Be 100 per cent public-spirited. How many say the Lord's Prayer, in sincerity, in spirit and in truth? God esteems the deed, rather than the boasting about the deed. The bones of even a despotic Pharaoh should be respected. Wireless saves many ships in distress. It is a boon to mankind in this life saving functioning. It is sadly futile and out of place for Indians to go upon the warpath today. The warpath days of the American Indian are ended. Many preventable fires cause loss of life and property. When will people learn to be careful with this destructive element? Some professed Christians are good in everything but doing good. The Christianity which impresses the world favorably is that which is lived and practiced faithfully. California is verily the Golden State in the matter of the opportunities it offers those who would invest money or talents, to do well. It is proposed to retire the entire national debt of the United States during the next twenty-five years. It seems a colossal task—and it is that very thing. COLORADO RIVER PACT HOLD GOOD Some confusion has arisen because of the announced intention to bring before the League of the Southwest room to meet in Santa Barbara, some modified plan to take the place of the Colorado River compact which has been ratified outright by six of the seven states of the Colorado River Basin. Governor Richardson, of California, and Governor Scrugham, of Nevada, hold that the compact is not broken or repudiated and that Arizona has not formally and finally rejected the pact absolutely. Therefore, there will be no official representation at Santa Barbara meet from the government of California and Nevada. The right and propriety of the League of the Southwest in taking up this question in this way at this time, is questioned. There are strong intimations that the Arizona Legislature soon will meet in extra session and ratify the pact without reservation. Unqualified ratification was defeated by a very narrow margin a few weeks ago. Change of just a few votes would effect complete ratification at Phoenix, and then all seven states would be joined solidly insupport of the plan which was formulated at Santa Fe, N.M., and which, consummated, will be especial in development, of the Southwest. ECONOMIC CONFERENCE IS FAVORED A world conference, to cope with the world's economic problems, is advocated by the American delegation attending the International Chamber of Commerce meeting in Rome. It has been a most question for some time, with American statesmen and publicists, as to whether or not real benefit could be derived from the assembling of an international conference to grapple with the economic difficulties which are especially acute in the Old World.

California is verily the Golden State in the matter of the opportunities it offers those who would invest money or talents, to do well. It is proposed to retire the entire national debt of the United States during the next twenty-five years. It seems a colossal task—and it is that very thing. The Panam Canal needs stronger land and air defenses, naval officers report. This strengthening should be made by Congress without delay. The cause and its approaches should be among the strongest links in the chain of national defenses. Let's have some governmental retrenchment that really retrenches here in California. Governor Richardson's budget may not be perfect in all its details. But the general principle of economizing wherever possible without impairing the efficiency of the government, is sound. San Francisco is seeking both the Republican and the Democratic national conventions, next year. This is the kind of enterprise that counts—going after big conventions with a vim. It would be of great benefit to California to have either one or both of these great gatherings in 1924. California perhaps is the only state in the Union which is asking both of the great national political conventions to meet within its borders in 1924. This state's enterprise doubtless will have its reward. It stands a good chance of getting at least one of these mammoth assemblages. Citizenship among those who are responsible an who have sound character, should "neither sleep nor slumber." Menaces to government and free institutions of this land should be dealt with vigorously, but in legal form and fashion. IS FAVORED A world conference, to cope with the world's economic problems, is advocated by the American delegation attending the International Chamber of Commerce meeting in home. It has been a most question for some time, with American statesmen and publicists, as to whether or not real benefit could be derived from the assembling of an international conference to grapple with the economic difficulties which are especially acute in the Old World. If it were possible to hold such a conference down to consideration of economic subjects alone, without diverging into political dissensions, such a meeting might be fruitful. But in Europe economies and politics are so closely blended that it is almost impossible to divorce them. This country, of course, has no intention of becoming involved in the political biroils of Europe. Hence, the hesitancy about summoning an international economic conference. Should a world meeting be assembled at Washington, with the United States exerting its influence to keep the conference clear of politics and to focus attention and effort upon clarifying the economic situation throughout the world and finding a formula for economicills, vast good might be accomplished. This is not a government" of the people and by the people" who do not vote and who take no active part in political affairs. Colonel Robertselt is sadly missed throughout the country. When there was a political crisis, or any grave overshadowing situation, millions awaited with keen interest the opinions of the Sage of Sagamore Hill. Reading and digesting good literature enriches and ennobles the mind and soul as nothing else can. In good books is found the collected wisdom of the ages—the best that the centuries have wrought out on the forges of thought and action, feeling and emotion.

We don't know on whom the burden should fall but we know that for some of the songs that have been broadcast in this area somebody should be made to pay. Too many of the trials of being a movie actor are in court. Annual cow race from Davis to the University of California at Berkeley is cancelled "out of increased respect for the cow." If this keeps up, some day the public is going to give an ovation to Bull Montana. And We've Always Understood Wisconsin Was a Conservative State! Nearly every one of our district attended a stripping bee at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Masek Saturday evening. After the stripping was completed a dainty supper was served. Then began the fun!—Antigo (Wls.) Journal 100-585-5497 PARAGRAPHS (By Robert Quillen) It isn't oil that makes a nation great, but elbow grease.

Out our way there's a boy all the other kids hate. He licks a chicole late bar all over, so they won't ask WISE AND WITTY Faith is stationary while life transitory. The ravages of time are counted acted by the creative power of nature. More benefits come from rail-spitting than hair-splitting. A harmless lark may be the incision of sin's foothold. The silver lining of a cloud complimentary to the rainbow. The world is getting more liberal anyway. In the old days hereth placed on the rack, and now they are placed on the first page. By careful study you can learn about the relative merit of cars, but you can't remember it after an age. The blood-and-iron combination may build an empire, but the coat and-iron combination does a more permanent job. It isn't oil that makes a nation great, but elbow grease.

An elevator man dropped dead at the fourth floor. Possibly somebody said: "Thank you." In persuading a man to keep his word, the line of least resistance is the dotted line. Daylight saving is the only solution. You forget about saving when you go out after nightfall. The old-fashioned man who hitched his wagon to a star has a son who is content to park his jit in an alley and get a mere chorus girl. One reason why small towns remain quiet and peaceful is because the doctors don't tell all they know. Perhaps the easiest way to amuse criminals would be to let them listen in on the deliberations of juries. Another way to prolong the honey-moon is to refrain from playing as partners in a game of auction bridge. If they can't get the bootlegger under any other law, they might at times get him for impersonating an officer. The reason the movies are successful is because they pay no attention to the intellectuals who would improve them. You'll notice that books of etiquette didn't become popular until people got the habit of staying away from home. As spring approaches, we can't help wishing the early bird would get the fly instead of the worm. Old-fashioned parents had their faults, but the marvel is that they did so well without any children to boss them. There is very little altruism left, except that in Europe's plaintive assertion that we can't get along without her.

Payne a homesick, wandering American actor, wrote the words; Sir Henry Bishop, the music. They didn't know what they were starting. That's generally the way with things that last. After all, do any of us ever know what we're starting? The uncertainty is what makes life interesting. Los Angeles leads in recruitment. Everyday five men get so mad they go and join the army. Seattle man who was sued for divorce claimed it was a horse hair on his coat—and got away with it. When a great manufacturer says the outlook is very bright, he probably means he has thought up a new way to soak the consumer.
