TOWN IN REVIEW BY OLD TIMER AS I have so often stated, little things make a big difference. Often have I regretted it was a slight irritant in my happy family life that my choice of songs in singing the kids to sleep has failed to find favor with Friend Wife. Such old barber-shop favorites as "Ramble," "Polly-Wolly Doodle All the Day," "Hall, Hall, the Gangs All Here" and similar melodies which seemed to appeal so to the kids Friend Wife unfortunately considered quite rough neck. She said we should envelope them with enobling influences. Imagine my surprise then when she returned from a visit with her brother, a Methodist minister in Denver, with the following lullaby sung to the tune of that grand old college classic, "The Faculty Will Shine."

Worthington end son, Alva, arrived in California recently, only to be reminded by the cool evenings of the desirability of the wraps, at least. The trio making the journey in their Buick, were of the impression that it was as hot here as in the Sucker state, and everyone knows that coats and furs are "mothballed" down early in the reason back there. They fared well en route, as they stopped over night in hotels along the way, until they crossed into California. Even the desert ride was not too cool, but their very first purchases upon arriving at their destination was wraps, and they have already had their money's worth in comfort, they say. Mr. Worthington and family will linger in the pleasant southland until September 1, then probably turn longing eyes over their shoulders as duties call them to their eastern home. THE illness of Mrs. Harding and then of the President reminds Malcom Fraser, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, of a boyhood experience of his with President William McKinney. Fraser is a native of San Francisco, and during McKinley's visit to San Francisco Mrs. McKinley became ill. The president and his wife were the guests of Henry T. Scott, steel man of the northern metropolis. Each day the President used to come out for a walk, and regularly each day without fall the boys would line up at the house and shake hands with him. Some of them including Fraser, probably hold the record to this day outside of a few personages in Washington for the number of times they have shaken hands with a president of the United States. Anent the recent earthquake, Fraser says, with undiminished fondness and respect for San Francisco, that he was brought up among earthquakes. In fact, the only quake of importance he and Mrs. Fraser have missed was the big one which, due mainly to the fire which followed, destroyed most of San Francisco's fire traps. They have become so used to quakes that they don't think much about 'em any more, he declares. WAS INKNOWN 41 FEET Jury Finds Car Did Not Stop Until It Had Gone 56 Feet J. G. Allen, of Garden Grove, who in a Buick six roadster ran down the late Arthur R. Williams, uncle of Clyde Williams, on the Garden Grove road, fatally injuring him, was guilty of excessive speed, a jury of Coroner Charles D. Brown's decided Saturday afternoon at the inquest in the Huddle undertaking parlors. Witnesses testified to that effect. The evidence also brought out the fact that the late missionary was thrown 41 feet and that the car did not stop until it had gone 56 feet from the point where the accident took place. It was shown further that Allen did not apply the brakes until he had actually struck his victim. A settlement probably will be demanded of Allen by the relatives, according to Clyde Williams. The findings of the inquest would permit of a serious charge being brought. Manslaughter was at first mentioned, but it is doubtful now if such an action will be pushed. The dead man was in modest circumstances, as was the widow, also a missionary to Africa. The funeral service will be held at 10 a.m. tomorrow in the Gospel Tabernacle at Los Angeles. The body then will be shipped to the dead man's former home in San Bernardino for burial. RY.

For the benefit of any folks who are still scribbling their return addresses on the backs of envelopes, Postmaster Harry Whitaker elucidates why that's not desirable.

NOMINATIONS in the Town in Review's "Most Kids to the Block Contest" have been a little slow coming in since the block on Kroeger-st between Broadway and Santa Ana-st leaped to the fore with claims that 25 youngsters under ten years had been enumerated there. To make it still better, our Kroeger-st spokesman state that two youngsters have come to visit their grandparents, raising the total to 27, "since they will remain for some time," our informant states. The block on Kroeger-st between Broadway and Center-st would also like to come in for honorable mention admitting, however, that it can lay no such claim to fame as the block to the south. "If you would raise your wage limit slightly, I am quite sure we could round up 20 kids in our block," says the newest aspirant for honors. Cliff Carle puts in nomination the 400 block on So.

SAN FRANCISCO, July 30.—At 11 o'clock this morning President Harding's physicians issued the following statement on his bulletin: "The president had a fairly comfortable night with several hours sleep. His temperature at 9 a.m. was 101, pulse 118, respiration 33." "The abdominal symptoms following the digestive disturbance which he experienced while on the boat are now localized in the gall and ladder region." "There are no peritoneal symptoms; the lungs are clear. The white blood cells number 10,800 with 82 per cent polymorphonuclears." "The kidneys are functioning satisfactorily and there are no disturbance of the nervous system, except those associated with fatigue.

It will be necessary for him to have complete rest during the period of his acute symptoms." (Signed) C. E. Sawyer, Ray Lyman Wilbur, C. M. Cooper, J. T. Boone, Hubert Work.

Boone, Hubert Work. Stripped of its chemical phraseology this statement coming after two medical consultations was looked upon as reporting "fairly satisfactory" progress in the president's condition. The physicians bulletin was issued after the consultants had been in session for about an hour and a half after there had been considerable discussion as to its wording. It was re-written several times. All of the physicians declined to add anything to the statement or to comment generally upon Mr. Harding's condition this morning, but there was an unmistakable attitude of optimism apparent. While his symptoms and condition were described as still being acute this was not looked upon as especially alarming, as the severity of the president's ptomaine attack, according to medical men, would leave a trail of symptoms which only time and complete rest and relaxation can entirely overcome. The fact that lungs and kidneys are functioning satisfactorily and that there are no disturbances of the nervous system, "except those associated with fatigue," was regarded as particularly gratifying. Except for a few members of law official party, the president spent the day in absolute seclusion in his BLUNDERS Why would this meal not be sat isfying? The answer will be found among today's want ads.
