Daily Greeting To Our Readers
Let us take care how we speak of those who have fallen on life's field. Help them up, not heap scorn upon them. We did not see the conflict. We do not know the snarls.—Anonymous.
REALTY BUSINESS IS ON HIGH PLANE NOW
The realty business of California has been put upon a high and commendable plane of ethics. As the California Real Estate Association holds its enthusiastic annual meeting at Sacramento it is timely to make a few observations on the business of buying and selling realty.
Thanks to the efforts of the better class dealers throughout the state, a state license law has been enacted; a state real estate department has been established; and the last Legislature provided for bonding of dealers, and in other days threw safeguards around this business, to keep its standards high and to assure that only responsible persons shall hold licenses and transact realty business.
Realty boards and associations, in the various cities of the state, have become very important factors in community progress. The realty dealer is naturally a booster. The very nature of his business runs in the line of progress and development. At the present state meeting much attention is being given to development, and realty men are earnest supporters of solid, substantial upbuilding of California.
It is very gratifying indeed to have the real estate business in California in the hands of men and women of ideals, who observe a code of ethics which dignifies this business and wins the confidence of the public.
There are perils at sea, at best. Fire and wind and wave and unseaworthiness in vessels; shoals and rocky shores—all these, and other hazards lurk, to jeopardize those "who go down to the sea in ships."
The number of young men and young women who are working their way through college or university is large. This requires no little art and resourcefulness. Young folk who do

The number of young men and young women who are working their way through college or university is large. This requires no little grit and resourcefulness. Young folk who do this are deserving of much credit.
Leave the weather to Providence. Be thankful when it is pleasant. Do not grumble when it is unpleasant.
Worry is the powerful ally of disease. When the two work together, there is downfall of health.
Health is the crown jewel of human existence. There is no possession affecting the material life of man that is more precious than health.
California is the convention state pre-eminent. There is no region in America better adapted to the pleasurable satisfactory entertainment of convention bodies than California.
Sufficient housing accommodations should be provided for schools everywhere. There is nothing more important in the life of the nation than proper maintenance of public schools.
Four home runs in one world's series baseball game—four home runs! Pity a million "fans" could not have been there, to see that rare and thrilling spectacle!
Happy home life is the foundation of national security.
Fight crime with respect for law instilled into the youths of the state.
The American people can stand one world's series a year without going into permanent hysterics.

REMEMBER THE LITTLE OLD RED SCHOOL HOUSE AT THE

THE OLD TIME DISTRICT SCHOOL DOESN'T COMPARE WITH TO-DAY'S HIGHER EDUCATIONAL FACILITIES BUT AT LEAST IT WAS SAFE AND HEALTHFUL
PARAGRAPHS
By ROBERT QUILLEN
Dieting alone won't give you a willowy figure unless you begin with your grandmother.
Exercise: A kind of work; enjoyable because hard necessity isn't barking at your heels.
A cheap restaurant is one that makes a little finer distinction between food and garbage.
The fine edge of the honeymoon is gone when first the birdde must swallow hard and say "Ginone."
Our dictionary was written before the day of flappers. It defines a kiss as a mark of affection.
As time passes, all yearnings grow less acute except the yearning to get back on the public pay roll.
An osteopath is college tennis champion. Taking the rubber game came natural to him.
A third party can't get going without a grievance. It frequently takes hot water to start a Ford.
How times change. In the old days the serf cheered lustily for the winner. Now the monarch does it.
Success isn't always spelled with a capita. But in this hard-boiled age it can't be attained without it.
If a man is too lazy to think for himself, he retains his self-respect by being proud of his ability.

DINNER STORIES
If they live in a far country, they are "poor unsaved heathen".
If they live in your neighborhood, they are "infernal nuisances."
When an English child is born and the doctor says "ten pounds," he isn't referring to its weight.
POEMS THAT LIVE
LEISURE
What is this life if, full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare?
No time to stand beneath the boughs
And stare as long as sheep or cows;
No time to see, when woods we pass.
Where squirrels hide their nuts in grass;
No time to see, in broad daylight,
Streams full of stars, like skies at night;
No time to turn at Beauty's glance,
And watch her feet, how they can dance;
No time to wait till her mouth can
Enrich that smile her eyes began;
A poor life this, if full of care,
We have no time to stand and stare.
—William H. Davies.

Thou comest, Autumn, heralded by rain,
With banners, by great gales incessant fann'd,
Brighter than brightest silks of Samarcand

Tommy had been playing truant from school, and had spent a long, beautiful day fishing. On his way back he met one of his young cronies, who accosted him with the usual question, "Catch anything?"

AUTUMN
Thou comest, Autumn, heralded by rain,
With banners, by great gales incessant fann'd,
Brighter than brightest silks of Samarcand
And stately oxen harness'd to thy wain;
Thou standest, like imperial Charlemagne,
Upon thy bridge of gold; thy royal hand
Outstretched with benedictions o'er the land,
Blessing the farms through all thy vast domain.
Thy shield is the red harvest moon, suspended
So long beneath the heaven's o'erhanging eaves;
Thy steps are by the farmer's prayers attended;
Like flames upon an altar shine the sheaves;
And, following thee, in thy ovation splendid,
Thine almoner the wind, scatters the golden leaves!

COMMENTS OF THE PRESS
EDITORS ARE SAYING
SMITH, BROWN AND ROBINSON
San Francisco Journal
Smith, Brown and Robinson and their friends of similar names do not seem to be getting into the newspaper as frequently as they used to. One seldom hears of these men as being the speakers at "radical" meetings. The new profession of bootleger seems to have enlisted few experts bearing these names, or names even remotely resembling them, while in the murders and lesser crimes being recorded from day to day our old friends are strangely unrepresented.
It would seem that Smith, Brown and Robinson provide poor material for the outstanding activities of American life today. Where can they be? What are they doing?
Gunmen, bootleggers and yeggs of every description are running loose, and the day's record of crimes indicates the races and countries from which these unregenerates are derived. Professor Albert Bush-nell Hart of Harvard University says that we must "turn to such communities as Sicily or Albania or Bessarabia to find a national fondness for crime equal to our own." Prohibition Director Haynes says that the crimes being committed today by aliens and Americans are in the proportion of four to one, respectively.
Smith, Brown and Robinson are for the time being submerged in their own deep thoughts. It is to be hoped that they and their fellows will soon emerge and enter the arena of public affairs, and once more direct the destinies of the country as they did in the days gone by. Never was there a deare recall for them than there is now.

FACTS ABOUT YOUR OWN COUNTRY
Sir Walter Raleigh was the first white man to smoke American tobacco, but he never enjoyed it because he never got any coupons.
There are a great many eels in Long Island Sound, but nobody knows exactly how many because they are so slippery that some of them may have been counted twice.
Great Bend Wyo., is so called because there is a great bend in the river at that point.
If all the water were suddenly drained out of the Great Lakes boat traffic between Buffalo and Chicago would be greatly hampered.
The southern cotton fields furnish practically all the silk used in the manufacture of silk hats and tights in this country.
Wisconsin is called the Badger State because a barber in that State invented the badger haircut made popular by Jack Dempsey.
Texas is the largest State in the Union, but wouldn't be so large

We do not have to pay long-haul transportation and high merchandising costs to make Zerolene available. All that you spend for Zerolene goes to buy high quality only.
Zerolene forms less carbon than any other motor oil known to us. As a result, the Zerolene-lubricated car may be driven from 25% to 50% farther without having the valves ground or the cylinders rebored.
Because Zerolene gives better lubrication continuously, it reduces wear to a minimum and permits the delivery of more engine power to the wheels on the ground, giving you more mileage from your gasoline.
Insist on Zerolene—even if it does cost less.
