DAILY GREETINGS TO OUR READERS
So not alone we land upon that shore—
Twill be as if we had been there before;
We shall meet more we know
Than we can meet below
And find our rest like some returning dove—
Our Home at once with the Eternal Love.
F. W. FABER.
Heroism is Shown by Radio Men
Radio operators, faithful to their trust, braved death on the Delphy, flagship of the destroyer squadron after they had gone on the rocks at Honda Bay. Operators Atwood and Murphy stayed with their instruments so long as the apparatus worked and broadcasted warnings to other vessels of the squadron. This is one more story of heroic work by wireless men.
When history is written as it should be—when the heroisms of peace are given space as they deserve, and not all the historical recital is given to exploits of war—the brave things that persons innumerable have done in sticking to telegraph or telephone instruments to warn others of impending danger, will make a thrilling and inspiring volume. There have been instances almost innumerable of heroic actions by telegraph or wireless operators and by telephone girls. These courageous deeds should be set down in permanent form, in the history of mankind.
California has produced several world's champions in various sports and pastimes. It has contributed and is contributing many surpassing players of popular outdoor games. In baseball, football, golf, tennis, swimming, rowing, automobile racing, track athletics, and various other forms of sport, this state excels.
The breaking of the martial relation through separation and divorce is a very serious thing—in many instances it is near tragic. These broken romances and blasted connubial hopes should not be paraded vulgarly in sensational print.
POLITICAL FERVOR NOW IN MEXICO
The breaking of the martial relation through separation and divorce is a very serious thing—in many instances it is near tragic. These broken romances and blasted connubial hopes should not be paraded vulgarly in sensational print.
POLITICAL FERVOR NOW IN MEXICO
Mexico is preparing for a presidential campaign. To prepare for a presidential campaign in this country means nothing more ominous than to dam up a vast deal of written and spoken eloquence, to unloose upon the country at the psychological time.
But in Mexico, with its warm Latin blood, presidential campaigns are not waged as a mere matter of course. Down there a political campaign and guns and revolutions all come in the same thought. It is to be hoped that the wise counsels of President Obregon may allay any militaristic fervor in connection with the forthcoming polling. But when ardent ambitions enter the political arena down there, there is no foreknowing what may eventuate.
The Mexican people take their politics either as “a fight or a frolic”—more often a fight than a frolic. One more reason why every American should rejoice that he or she lives under the Stars and Stripes, where political crusades are bloodless.
The world cannot be reformed in a day. Human nature cannot be changed over night.
One does not have to be a courtier to be courteous. Courtesy oftentimes is found better developed in the humble thar in the courtly.
Soon there will be completed 40,000 miles of permanently constructed highway in the United States, in the building of which the federal government cooperated with state governments. This great improvement is of huge material advantage to the whole country. The improved road is an essentiality of modern life.
Borrowing Money
Borrowing Money
Successful business men are usually heavy borrowers of money.
They establish their reputations as credit risks and utilize this resource to the limit.
Such reputations are not made over night—they are built up over years of time—by meeting obligations as they fall due.
Our Commercial Department has aided more than one able business man to become a "good credit risk."
Its helpful, co-operating service is available to any live citizen in just that proportion in which he can qualify—and increasingly as he shows himself able to grow.

PARAGRAPHS
By ROBERT QUILLEN
Woman's lines are charming.
The only one we don't care for is the feline.
"Woman's mind is fresher than man's." Ah, well, she changes it more frequently.
The quickest way to achieve wisdom is to study the blisters one has acquired.
Democracy: A land where people confuse independence and bad manners.
Some people keep on buying beefsteak when they haven't a spare inner tube to their name.
The way of a man with a maid requires little art. The hard part is the getaway.
About the only thing a special delivery stamp is good for is to thrill the neighbors when one arrives at Podunk Junction.
Bolshevism may be the solution, after all. It leaves a country too badly decorated to make war.
Firpo has many things to learn, but the art of sneaking up on a nickel isn't one of them.
If you have neither birth nor wealth, you can be good and acquire that same superior feeling.
The reason they are called wild oats is because you seldom catch sight of them in daylight.
It is clear now that the league can weather all storms if the storms are not permitted to reach it.
Sleeping powders won't help much unless you can arrange to slip them into the neighbor's phonograph.
ABE MARTIN
It's just about reached th' point where automobilin' don't mean nothin' but movin' with traffic. Solomon wuz purty wise. He knowed that out o' 100 wives ther wuz bound t' be always one in a good humor.
DINNER STORIES
Bare of shoulders, bare of knees,
Full exposure to the breeze,
Nothing fazes such as these—
in winter.
A dairy is no cleaner than its dirtiest milk.
Boast not of blood until it is tested.
Soon we'll swap our files and "skeeters"
For a mess of poisoned air;
Soon we'll hug our winter heaters
In our woolen underwear.
If you'll close your mouth and open your eyes you'll see many things that'll make you wise.
If you want to learn something about unrestitution and credulity.
If you have neither birth nor wealth, you can be good and acquire that same superior feeling.
The reason they are called wild oats is because you seldom catch sight of them in daylight.
It is clear now that the league can weather all storms if the storms are not permitted to reach it.
Sleeping powders won't help much unless you can arrange to slip them into the neighbor's phonograph.
We reflect with gladness that no statue has been erected to the man who invented castor oil.
The American government shouldn't try to run Cuba's affairs. American bankers are doing it very well.
