Daily Greetings To Our Readers
WE ARE ONLY CALLED UPON TO LIVE BY THE MOMENT. GOD DOES NOT BID US BEAR THE BURDENS OF
TOMORROW, OR NEXT WEEK, OR NEXT YEAR. AND
THROUGH YEARS OF LONG TOMORROWS IT WILL BE
BUT THE SAME THING TO DO; LEAVING THE FUTURE
ALWAYS IN GOD'S HANDS, SURE THAT HE CAN CARE
FOR IT BETTER THAN WE. THIS IS THE REST OF
FAITH, WHOSE HEAVENLY CALMNESS NO STORMS DISQUIET.—ANONYMOUS.
PREDICTS AIR TRAVEL ON HUGE SCALE
There will be a vast deal of commercial travel by air in future. Giant dirigibles will carry passengers swiftly, safely and
in comfort at small cost. Rear Admiral William A. Moffett,
chief of the Bureau of Aeronautics of the Navy Department,
makes these predictions. He made the trip to St. Louis on the
ZR-1. He was immensely pleased with the behavior of the great
aerial vessel. With ease and without jolting, the ZR-1 glided
through the air. The journey was clean, free from dust and
cinders, and passengers were protected against the wind.
Cost, too, is an important item in the operation of aircraft.
The ZR-1 used less than a gallon of gasoline per mile on the
flight of 2200 miles. This denotes remarkably cheap transportation.
Rapid advancement undoubtedly will be made in buttressing
the great dirigibles as to safety. Use of helium gas adds greatly
to security. This is non-explosive. Hitherto the greatest perils
in dirigibles have arisen from use of explosive gases. Made safe,
it will be possible to carry passengers at great speed in comfort.
Within a few years great commercial lines of aircraft will be
operating across this continent to Latin America and Canada,
and overseas to Europe and ultimately across the Pacific to Asia.
Politeness should be taught children. In the home and in
munificent proportions. This country has done itself proud again, in a great philanthropy.
No grade crossing is absolutely safe. But the careful driver
can minimize perils by his carefulness.

America's free-will offering for the relief of Japan is of school lessons in courtesy and thoughtful consideration of others should be inculcated.
The newspaper is the greatest source of enlightenment today in the current history of the world.

It may be that true Americanism is flagging, but it isn't flogging.
You can say one thing for this kind of peace; it doesn't bore anybody.
All a minority really needs to make itself safe in this free country is a muffler.
Most people who read Who's Who wonder what the others did to merit such distinction.
If the klan wishes to run a college, that's all right so long as it isn't the electoral college.
However, we never have met a man sufficiently contrary to disagree with those who praise him.
Reasonable statement, easily imagined: "A terrible thing has happened! My wife has eloped with the chauffeur—and he was the best chauffeur I ever had!"
A man isn't old so long as he can keep changing his mind often enough to qualify as a progressive.
If your proposition is a bit shady, mention the profits first or your prospect may feel insulted.

Uncle Joshua was a laconic and hard-headed old countryman, who never let the criticisms of his too frank neighbors upset his equanimity, according to Judge. At one of the sessions of the "village club" which met every day in the postoffice for the distribution of the 5 o'clock mail, some of the men undertook to twit Uncle Joshua about a tale then going the rounds of one of his recent horse trades.
"They're tellin' all kinds of lies about you, Josh," jibed one young blade. "Wot you goin' to do about it?"
"Do!" replied Uncle Joshua, coolly, as he spat with unerring accuracy through the open door. "NotHin'. I don't keer how many lies they tell about me. It's the truth I'm a-skeered of."
The continued exodus from the south of the colored population, although a matter of concern in industrial centers, is not without a bit of humor now and then, remarks Everybody's.

The nice thing about a white-collar job is that you never are accused of gouging your employer in the matter of wages.
These be soft times. In the old days they rattled the sword; now they merely threaten to withdraw from the League.
People are funny. The name "Cabot" seems peculiarly sacred, and yet we don't know a single .300 hitter of that name.
It is easier to understand America's attitude when you remember how little interest you feel in the other fellow's tooth ache.
The winner of the Bok peace prize can try his scheme when it appears that his wife has her own ideas about spending—the money.
At the terminal station in Macon, Ga., a party of adventurers was entraining recently for points north, and one of the party bidding good-bye to another of his color said: "Well, Sam, when you comin' to Detroit?"
"I belongs to de 'B' class," replied Sam.
"How's dat? What you mean by de 'B' class, nigger?"
"What I means," said Sam, "is dat I be here when you're gwine away an' I be's here when you comes back."
Macaroni At It's Best
KITCHEN BOUQUET, a purely vegetable product, is in almost every pantry. Housewives know it is the secret of making good gravies and soups, but KITCHEN BOUQUET is equally good in preparing many other dishes. Try your next dish of macaroni prepared this way—
BAKED MACARONI
M package macaroni, broken in pieces
2 teaspoon of salt
2 quarts boiling water
M cup grated cheese
1 teaspoon Kitchen Bouquet
Milk Butter
Cook macaroni in boiling salted water until tender, drizzle with cold water. Please one-third the cooked macaroni in hot buttered baking disk, dot with butter and sprinkle with grated cheese, then more macaroni, butter and change until full. Add all the broth Boquet to milk and pour this over the macaroni to nearly cover. Then sprinkle thickly with cream in medium hot oven a half hour, until browned and serve immediately for dinner.

He was a very polite man, and did not know what to reply when his pretty partner asked if they had not met before, says the London Daily Express. He put his hand to his forehead reflectively.
"Yes," he said, "I think I have had the pleasure—and you the experience."
THE SIGNED STORY
The champion pug slings words about
In devastating ways.
And by the way the papers shout
Here's what they say, he says:
"After months of training and due deliberation
I have come to this conclusion and firm determination.
That in my coming set-to with my pugillistic rival
I will scatter his remains from city hall to Spuyten Duyvil.
In other words more fitting to the common terminology,
I shall by all the reasons of the padded ring's psychology
Annihilate this lad by geometric progression,
That's how they quote the champ, but that's
Fixed up by writing men,
And how he actually chats
Is something else again:
That big stiff fightin' me? Say, guy,
That stuff gives me a laff.
He ain't got no more chance—Why, I
Could bust that bird in half.
I'd hand that bimbo just one biff
The minute that we mixed—The whole thing was all fixed."
That is, I'd wallop him one if

Soon the dizzy race track season
Will be over hereabout,
And the fans return to reason
And the gamblers put to rout.
Then the time to be beguiling,

But, since hope still springs eternal
And since gloom gives way to cheer
Soon we'll start the sequel vernal,

Christmas comes but once a year, but the average taxpayer can't help but feel he's being played for a Santa Claus $65 times.
One of the defusions most firmly fixed in the mind of the great American public is that any newspaper man can always get a pass to a championship fight or anything else he likes for the mere asking. Some day we fully expect to be called to somebody's deathbed and asked to supply a pass to crash the Pearly Gate.
Hamburg steak killed a rattlesnake in Minnesota. Our Inquiring Reporter plans to visit around among lunchroom addicts to discover where they think he got it.
We desire to predict the outcome of the next Firpo-Dempsey fight. In our opinion Dempsey will again beat Firpo by 3,497 columns of free press stuff.
Man arrested in Idaho for selling liquor to Indians. He probably sold it to Indians because they own all the oil wells and are the only ones who can afford to buy it.

TRAINING IN CITIZENSHIP—Fresno Republican
Putting into effect of a new state law requiring the teaching of facts about civil government and also of American ideals of public life is timely. The new law applies to all schools. It requires that courses shall be specially set for these subjects and lays upon the state superintendent of public instruction responsibility for seeing that such courses are properly carried out.
Doubtless the most of private as well as public schools already have such courses in effect, in their high school departments. Doubtless some public schools may be negligent in their handling of such courses. The purpose of the law is to be that every child in California

TRAINING IN CITIZENSHIP—Fresno Republican

It requires that courses shall be specially set for these subjects and lays upon the state superintendent of public instruction responsibility for seeing that such courses are properly carried out.
Doubtless the most of private as well as public schools already have such courses in effect, in their high school departments. Doubtless some public schools may be negligent in their handling of such courses. The purpose of the law is to be that every child in California, no matter where he gets his schooling, shall be afforded an opportunity to understand, constructively, the part that civil government plays in his life.
Our theory of government requires the conscious and regular participation of all citizens in it. The citizen that does not take part in the government by voting and by an understanding of what is taking place in public life is a drag on the government. And the citizen who only occasionally and fitfully expresses an opinion or takes a part in government affairs, is a much a trouble maker as any amateur is apt to be.
The state of California properly does not arrogate to itself the right to conduct all the schools. We recognize and permit private schools, whether for primary or higher education. But we do require that private schools shall fulfill certain functions. They shall conform to certain standards.
One of these standards is now expressed definitely in this new state law. The young Californian shall grow up with a knowledge of his own citizenship.
