THE ORANGE COUNTY PLAIN DEALER An Independent Newspaper, Issued Every Afternoon Except Sunday Paul V. Hester Editor and Publisher DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS A man with no sense of religious duty is he whom the Scriptures describe, in such terse but terrific language, as living "without God in the world." Such a man is out of his proper being, out of the circle of all his duties, out of the circle of all his happiness, and away, far, far away, from the purposes of his creation.—Daniel Webster. Dense ignorance should be banished from the state. California should battle its illiteracy to the last ditch. The home-loving community is invariably patriotic. Overeating kills more human beings than overworking does. The Near East is not so near established peace as it should be. Crossing the continent by air in twenty-four hours soon will be a common occurrence. The 1924 Presidential campaign should be a canvass of sober thinking, not merely of agitation and shouting. The grade crossing loses none of its deadliness with the lapse of time. The only safe crossing is that one that does not exist. There is ruddy health in outdoor exercise. Give the children abundance of it, and do not neglect to take plenty of it yourself. WASTAGE ENORMAL THIS COUNTRY Despite the boasted efficiency of can people, the economic wastage try is stupendous. This is largely Nation is so hugely rich in resources for example, has been wasted with Not until recent years has any tention been given to the conservation. As to floods, the United States billions of dollars in property loss and of lives from floods. And yet system of flood control, except the levees, has been put through. The omle wastage that should be over would be one of the very best inventions could be made to undertake to fortifically every stream in the country subject to disastrous overflow. Cost would be heavy, it is true. In prevention of flood losses soon terbalance the cost, not to speak erating of electric power which dams would make possible, and ment of water for irrigation which immensely valuable. In many other directions there waste which is tolerated because is so enormously wealthy in reeling the time is coming when this we deplored keenly. HAZING KILLS STU IS BELIEVED There was a tragedy at North veracity two years ago. Hazing have caused the death of Leigh His bleached skeleton has been for ally. That he was murdered, or The 1924 Presidential campaign should be a canvass of sober thinking, not merely of agitation and shouting. The grade crossing loses none of its deadliness with the lapse of time. The only safe crossing is that one that does not exist. There is ruddy health in outdoor exercise. Give the children abundance of it, and do not neglect to take plenty of it yourself. These American republics should set example before the world in striving earnestly, sincerely and zealously to keep peace. Fruit and grain crop conditions in California are quite favorable. This should be a profitable year for ranchers and orchardists. The California Legislature is getting along much better than it has ever been, hailed by the people as a blessing. This continent becomes smaller and smaller as radio spans it on lightning wings, and the airships crumble in twenty-seven hours. To fly across the continent without stop is a trying feat. No bird would make a non-stop flight across the United States. Men is out doing the designs of the air. A LITTLE TALK ON THRIFT By S. W. STRAUS, President American Society for Thrift. The people of the United States are in the midst of a rising tide of prosperity. And there are good reason why these conditions should emphasize the necessity of individual thrift. Gigantic processes of readjustment are taking place. In many of the trades and industries wages are increasing, simultaneously with which there is a steady advance in the cost of living. Conditions such as these foster extravagant practices on the part of many while with many others whose earnings have not increased, there comes a constantly narrowing margin between income and necessary expenditures. Periods of inflation have invariably brought the hysteria of overspending and speculation, through which a large number of people have eventually lost the benefits of the nations prosperity and the whole business structure of the country has been adversely affected. Though America today is in the midst of great prosperity, this is no reason why people should feel that they can in fairness to themselves spend beyond their means. During periods of increased profits every hour soon will be a common occurrence. HAZING KILLS STUDIO IS BELIEVED There was a tragedy at North versity two years ago.

Periods of inflation have invariably brought the hysteria of overspending and speculation, through which a large number of people have eventually lost the benefits of the nations prosperity, and the whole business structure of the country has been adversely affected. Though America today is in the midst of great prosperity, this is no reason why people should feel that they can in fairness to themselves spend beyond their means. During periods of increased profits, every well managed business institution builds up its reserves and fortifies itself in every possible way against the lean periods of failure. The same practices should apply with the individual. If present conditions have brought about a great increase in your personal income, take advantage of this occasion to build up your resources. Do not lose your head in speculation or in wasteful and injurious personal habits. If, on the other hand, the constant rise of living costs is greater than any increase you may be able to obtain in your income it behooves you all the more to eliminate every possible item of expenditure which represents waste. As never before, you must live within your means. Our present period of prosperity will be prolonged in proportion to the extent with which the people of the nation adhere to prudent habits of living. Sparks and Spikes There is never a shortage of trouble at a high rate of interest. A mind in low state of cultivation is susceptible to vulgar outbursts. Thorns of a rose bush are no responder to the lover of flowers. The limit of a man's capability is ever outside his limitations. Your daily income poor or rich counts four and twenty hours. Your waste a day its limit reach by misdirected powers. EDITORIAL AGE ENORMOUS IN THIS COUNTRY the boasted efficiency of the Amerithe economic wastage in this counendous.

Impulse is a product of a warm heart; second thought is a product of cold feet. If the envelope has a window in it, there is nothing else in it you care to see. Another form of violent exercise that is bad for the nerve is running it from others? Life is just a perennial business of wishing you hadn't spent so much last month. Another fine thing about being humble is that it makes you feel superior to ordinary people. At first the immigrant is happy in an air of freedom, but in a few years he can't be happy without free air. Our bodies are sensitively organized that a slip on the back will give a man a stiff upper lip. Landis might make himself solid with the fans by ruling that rain checks are good in case of snow. The unfortunate part about life is that character is formed during the years when appetites are keenest. Man is the only creature endowed with reason and a yearning to do things his reason tells him are harmful. The punishment for an evil life is that one soon reaches the point where nothing appears naughty and nothing is thrilling. There is a limit to everything except the number of girls that can get into a Ford. That cynic who suggests an idiocy week may have the right idea, but how would he suggest distinguishing it from others? It probably is correct to say that the average wife keeps her husband under surveillance, but it is so much easier to spell "thumb."
