PROMOTING OF PEACE IS MISSION OF UNITED STATES "Until this land casts its influence into the scale of peace, I despair of the future." Thus spoke David Lloyd George at Minneapolis. "You are the continent of peace," he said dramatically—"and in God's name keep it the continent of peace. There are races here which have been interlocked in Europe in fearful, savage, barbarous conflict of generations. You are welding them into one people, living at the same national hearthstone, warming their hands at the same great national fire." This land should cast its influence into the scale for peace. This should be done with wisdom and prudence. This country should not make engagements which would drug it down with other powers. There should be no experience like that of the well-meaning rescuer who plunges in to save a drowning person only to be clutched by the neck and dragged down by the desperate person endangered. The United States must go about the rescue in such manner as to prevent disaster to itself and consequent destroying of its power to give relief. This nation well may take the lead in well-digested movements to promote world peace, but without entangling itself with the distinctively domestic affairs of other nations and peoples. Give the forests effectual protection against menacing fire in careless hands. well-meaning rescuer who plunges in to save a drowning person only to be clutched by the neck and dragged down by the desperate person endangered.

Give the forests effectual protection against menacing fire in careless hands. Experience and observation are the greatest of teachers. Punish severely the person who is guilty of carelessness with fire in forest reserves. Eliminate the folly of carelessness in traffic and in handling fire, and the death rate and destruction of property would diminish.

How Poland is struggling against great odds to take its place among the nations of the world is shown by these photos, just sent from there by workers lag the American Friends who are alding the Polish and Russian peasants through missions in those countries. Homes are being constructed of logs as Americans built their homes 100 years ago. The Polish government gives the peasants the standing timber. With the aid of the "Friends" the logs are cut and hauled to the villages or farms. The missionals also furnish tools. PARAGRAPHS By ROBERT QUILLEN The pure in heart have many things to worry about, but black-mail isn't one of them. A man is happiest while giving somebody advice, a woman while giving somebody medicine. Europe put her faith in arms with little profit. It might be a good idea to try her knees. When the tired business man is really tired, one of the things he is tired of is leg shows. Another way to avoid insomnia is to tell your friend that you never sign notes for anybody. Going to the dentist's wasn't such a one-sided affair back in tooth-for-a-tooth Bible times. Paved roads should last a long time now that they have billboards on each side to protect them from the weather. With so much responsibility on his shoulders, it is strange that Mussolini has room for a chip. Every man should hunt alone until he has trained his shotgun to climb a fence without getting hysterical. So live that you never will invite apoplexy by denouncing the ABE MARTIN Heinle Moots' uncle, in Germany, wuz killed last week by a pay roll cavin' in on him. Even after hangin' around watchin' President Coolidge wind up, th' politicians don't know no more about his style o' pitchin' than they did before. SUNSHINE PELLETS BY DR. W. F. THOMSON His complexion was sallow And he wouldn't grow tall, And the doctor said hookworm Was the cause of it all. YORBA LINDA YORBA LINDA, Oct. 20.—Mrs. Roseoe Cram was a recent guest at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Roy De Witt of Fullerton. Mr. Cram is working for a few weeks at Chino and is only able to be home over the week-end. Mr. Oscar Cook and family motored to Camp Baldy on Sunday and spent the day. Mr. and Mrs. Weston Smith have returned from a trip to the desert. Mr. and Mrs. C. H. Eichler spent Sunday with relatives at Chino. Friends here of the L. D. Pike family were shocked when they learned of his death by electrocution while helping his son-in-law Homer Bernis at Chino on Wednesday. Mr. Pike with his family lived on the ranch on Y. L. boulevard for a number of years, but moved to Fullerton about two years ago. The six children surviving are also well known here. Mrs. Shook, one of the oldest, leaving here about two months ago for their new home at Paradise. A large number of friends from here plan to attend the funeral services today. Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Knight entertained a large number of friends from out-of-town at dinner Thursday evening. Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Buckmaster, Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Richards and Mrs. Julia Selover spent Sunday at Laguna. Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Green of Anaheim, who formerly resided here, have sold their citrus grove, on which they lived, situated east of the tract to Mr. and Mrs. Sam Paved roads should last a long time now that they have billboards on each side to protect them from the weather. With so much responsibility on his shoulders, it is strange that Mussolini has room for a chip. Every man should hunt alone until he has trained his shotgun to climb a fence without getting hysterical. So live that you never will invite apoplexy by denouncing the spiteful and narrow gossips in your town. If he has pretty curis and be dances well, the young people will make their home with the bride's parents. There is another nice thing about spending Sunday in meditation and prayer. You don't spend much else. When a wife says her husband doesn't understand her, she means she has found a man who feels sorry for her. Even if a girl should establish a world's record at the washtub, she probably wouldn't get in the rotogravure section. Every proper book should end with the words: "Now, darn you, take this back to the fellow you borrowed it from." With the coal strike out of the way, there isn't much to dread now, except spilling cranberries on the tablecloth. A thoughtful girl is one who parks her gum under the table while eating ice cream instead of dropping it on the floor. Now he scolds because the old fogies are running things. Thirty years from now he will scold because the youngsters don't know anything. Correct this sentence: "If you wish to shave, dear," said the wife, "you'll find an embroidered linen towel in the top drawer." SUNSHINE PELLETS BY DR. W. F. THOMSON His complexion was sallow And he wouldn't grow tall, And the doctor said hookworm Was the cause of it all. Clothes don't make a man nor whiskers a doctor. Even the spice of life comes in fifty-seven varieties. Standing water is a curse, Drain your ponds or drain your purse. Make hay while the sun shines, but hit it while it doesn't. Lots of irrepressible people wear clothes of the same character. In change of climate, oft' proposed, There's less virtue than supposed; Distance, though, enchantment lends, But not without both funds and friends. A raisin's a grape and, if you're a grape nut, perhaps there's a reason. Though by bleaching, millers fade it; eat your wheat as nature made it. Mr. and Mrs. R. A. Knight entertained a large number of friends from out-of-town at dinner Thursday evening. Mr. and Mrs. J. A. Buckmaster, Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Richards and Mrs. Julia Selover spent Sunday at Laguna. Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Green of Anaheim, who formerly resided here, have sold their citrus grove, on which they lived, situated east of the tract to Mr. and Mrs. Sam Black. The consideration was not made public. Mr. and Mrs. Black have taken possession of their new property. Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Barton, Mr. Louis Bowman, Mr. Ell Stanley and Mr. Eara Stanley are spending this week in Sutter county, looking over holdings purchased there and hunting. Members of the Y. L. Woman's Club met at the local club rooms on Friday and sewed for the coming bazaar. On next Tuesday evening, a Hallowe'en party will be given, which will take the place of the regular club meeting. This affair will begin with a chicken dinner for which seventy-five cents will be charged. Mrs. Geo. T. Kellogg is in charge and tickets may be purchased from here. A fine program of games, music, etc., has been planned which is sure to please. A large number of tickets have been sold. Marriage sometimes is a failure because relatives constitute too heavy a liability. You may be "a man in a million" and not amount to much. It's owing to what million you are compared with.

EDITORS ARE SAYING (America's Air Service—New York Evening Post) From Hampton, Va., to Bangor, Me., in eight and a half flying hours was the impressive record made on Monday by a fleet of 16 huge bombing planes in a demonstration planned to show what the air forces of this country could do for the relief of a threatened point on the Atlantic coast. The success of this flight over ground that holds the threat of death for planes in trouble because of the lack of landing fields, calls public attention to the needs of our air forces. The United States air service, because of the vast extent of our country, is thought of primarily as a defensive arm, and those who planned this demonstration did well to indicate that it is so considered by its own commanders. No narrow channels make the air forces of this country available at once for offensive warfare. If it is to be used in foreign lands the navy and army must lead the way. Whatever development our air service achieves cannot suggest evasion of the spirit of limitation of naval armament. On the contrary, it will strengthen and support the purpose of that limitation by improvement of a defensive arm which is not also readily available as an offensive arm. THE SPUR OF THE MOMENT LOVE POEM And do you ever think of me? You loved me, then tossed me aside; A moment in my arms, then free To go and be another's bride. Ah, well, that oft remembered time Has passed for ever and for aye. What matters to dream on in rhyme Of happiness of yesterday? You loved me then—stop, that's enough; I merely wanted to explain That the foregoing sort of stuff Gives me a large and healthy pain. OUR OWN INQUIRING REPORTER LOVE POEM And do you ever think of me?

OUR OWN INQUIRING REPORTER (Judging from the relevancy that the answer usually bears to the question.) QUESTION—Do you believe in the transmigration of the spirit as applicable to the laws of specific gravity duty laid down by Professor Einstein and amended by the Sixty-seventh Congress? Or don't you? ANSWERS Annetta Scaramouchio, Swiss bell ringer—"Certainly I believe chorus girls ought to get bigger pay. A lady's gotta live, ain't it?" Boompf Wampf, president of the New England Historical Society, Nome, Alaska—"It isn't the heat so much; its the humidity." Chung Lo, United States senator, Soldiers' and Sailors Monument—"Well, yes—and no." Lewis Mood of Ferrell, N. J., has discovered a new apple. Here's hoping he has better luck than Mother Eve did when she discoverd the old one. Some people are sent to insane asylums. Others pay $27.50 to see a fight when they could be in one by merely saying a few well-chosen words to a cop. Russel (with one "l") M. Crouse, one of our gifted (gifted because we have been donating cigarettes to him since the Buchanan administration) collaborators doesn't think so much of the culinary art as practiced in Saratoga Springs. On getting his order for a Spanish omelet, the hotel chef consulted a colored illustration in a woman's magazine and then approximated it by frying a combination salad. The summit of youthful ambition was reached the other day when a small boy, seeing the dirigible over the city, was heard to observe; "Papa, I want that balloon." Lots of movie actors seem to have the Mohammedan idea of marriony, except that they take 'em one at a time. Some of these faked prize fights are beginning to convince us that the Salvation Army was right when it said that a man may be down but he's never out. Barbers are going to have a convention to discuss problems. The real problem is the customer's, to know what he is expected to say beyond, "Ugh," when the barber holds the mirror to the back of his neck. YOU teach your children to deposit their money.
