COOLIDGE President Coolidge again has spoken his convictions on basic and paramount issues. He speaks optimistically of America's soundness in fundamentals. "It has both the power and disposition to maintain itself in a healthy, economic and moral condition." He urges that if this country is to maintain its prosperity, it must maintain its ideals—a thought which should be uppermost with the people at all times. As to corruption in office in this country, Mr. Coolidge says that "there is an exceedingly healthy disposition to uproot it altogether and administer punishment wherever competent evidence of guilt can be produced; that I am doing and propose to do." Quite satisfactory to every decent American. President Coolidge summons the government and people of the United States to helpful co-operation abroad—invoking the "oft-repeated law of service—we can help ourselves only as we help others.'" Mr. Coolidge urges that America respond to the Dawes plan, thus participating in "financing the work of peace in Europe." Mr. Coolidge also makes the significant suggestion that, with the reparations problem in Europe practically settled, he would favor calling another world conduce to achieve limitation of armaments, should it be found other great powers would collaborate sympathetically in a kind. A clearcut, constructive deliverance, marked all over the way of conviction and defitness of purpose. Mr. the "off-repeated law of service—we can help ourselves only as we help others."

WM. MITCHELL When Brig. Gen. Wm. Mitchell, assistant chief of the U.S. air service, returns from his honeymoon trip around the world in the near future he will be made commander of McCook Field, Dayton, O., soon to be made the world's largest aerial center in the world. This is the report emanating from Dayton. Brig. Gen. Mitchell will succeed Major L. W. McIntosh if such a move is made. The major will retire shortly to enter the preparatory school for generals, it is stated. The appointment of Mitchell would be a popular one, it is said. He is a favorite with the flying force, an aviator of ability himself and an enthusiastic student of aviation and its progress. He is called the proper man for the job, which will entail added responsibility when the proposed enlargement program at the field is carried out. This program contemplates the relocation of the field on a 5000-acre tract, adjacent to the Wright field. The dedication of the new quarters would be held during the international air races, to be staged there next fall, it is said. General Mitchell is one of the outstanding figures in the Air Service. He has 30,000 hours in the air to his credit. He has traveled about 350,000 in air planes of various types. On one of his inspections at McCook Field he went into the air with every plane at that field and you wish to know which parman belongs to, ask him he hates a rich man.

He has 30,000 hours in the air to his credit. He has traveled about 350,000 in air planes of various types. On one of his inspections at McCook Field he went into the air with every plane at that field and some of the old buses would hardly hold together. Following the Pulitzer Cup races at Detroit in 1922 he hopped into a Curtis racer, and stepped on the gas for 224 miles an hour, establishing a world's record, one, however, which has since been topped several times by his own subordinates. General Mitchell was born in France, but came to America at a very early age, his parents locating in Wisconsin. Along in 1898 he had the urge to join the army and did so as a buck private. Then came the Spanish-American war. He emerged as a second lieutenant. When the World war came along he was sent overseas in 1915 as an observer. For two years he remained there as an observer. Then America plunged in and Mitchell, being on the ground, got the chance of his life. He was placed in direct charge of the American aerial activities along the western front. It is said he commanded the largest force of flyers ever assembled. Until Major General Patrick began flying, General Mitchell was the only flying general in the world. A. ANTLE No- Los Angeles S.

Orange co., per year, $3; 6 months, $1.75 Entered at the Postoffice at Anaheim, Calif., as second class matter DINNER STORIES A certain actor-manager, notorious for his overbearing, blustering manner, was bullying his property man about some property bricks required in one of the scenes in a pantomime. "Sir," bellowed the tragedian, "do you think any sane man would be deceived by such a palpable imitation of a brick as that?" at the same time giving the one indicated a tremendous kick. A howl of mingled rage and pain followed. He had kicked a real one. The best illustration of the value of brief speech reckoned in dollars was given by Mark Twain. His story was that when he had listened for five minutes to the preacher telling of the heathen, he wept, and was going to contribute $50, after ten minutes more of the sermon, he reduced the amount of his prospective contribution to $25 dollars, after half an hour more of eloquence, he cut the sum to $5. At the end of an hour of oratory when the plate was passed, he stole $2. He was waiting for a train. As he walked idly up and down the platform he noticed a rather pretty girl, who was also waiting for the train. He endeavored to catch her eye, but she did not seem to see him. Finally he walked up to her and said: "I beg your pardon, but you look just like a girl I know." She surveyed him coldly from head to foot and refused to thaw. "Weil, you look just like a man I don't want to know!" she retorted. LOVE: IDEAL AND REAL In the definition of one word dictionaryies always seem inadequate. And go to the scientist and he is too cruel; go to the poet and he is too sweet; and go to the philosopher and he is too cynical. Perhaps this is because most of the words about love emblazoned in print have been written by men. Of the women who have written about love, Amantine Dudevant, the French woman who penned novels under the mannish pseudonym of 'fGeorge Sand,' at least spoke with feelings based on experience; "Love is the most malleable of all human sentiments. It takes all forms and produces all imaginable effects, according to the soil in which it takes root. Sometimes a pure and noble soul cannot rise to passion, while a wicked mind entertains it with fire, and has an irresistible want for the possession of a superior being whose superiority it cannot understand." "Love is spontaneous. It surprises and invades; it never reasons; it has no need to interrogate itself, to surround itself with defenses, plans of attack, and projects of retreat. It betrays itself, and then only is restrained." "The more we love the more we fear to offend the object of our love." His passion is triumphant! When he loves or is beloved, how he despises all which is not love; how lightly he esteems his life and how ready he is to throw it away when his star begins to pale a little. And when he loses what he loves, what agony, what convulsions, what hatred of the consolations of friendship for God's mercies. But God made him fearful as well as boastful; and soon, fearful and shame-faced and weeping like a child, seeking with timid steps to find his way again, he hastily seizes the hand held out to guide him. Ridiculous, puerile and unfortunate being, who knows neither how to accept nor withdraw from his duty." "A woman cannot long love a man whom she feels inferior to herself; love without veneration, without enthusiasm, is but friendship, and friendship is but cold support under those immense evils accepted for the sake of love." "Ah, you men, how little do you love ... When it is not vice that hardens your souls, it is virtue; whether base or noble you love nothing but yourselves." "Pride only kills men; love destroys women." "There is a second loveliness which returns to women who have not received fatal wounds in the first encounters of youth." He was waiting for a train. As he walked idly up and down the platform he noticed a rather pretty girl, who was also waiting for the train. He endeavored to catch her eye, but she did not seem to see him. Finally he walked up to her and said: "I beg your pardon, but you look just like a girl I know." She surveyed him coldly from head to foot and refused to thaw. "Well, you look just like a man I don't want to know!" she retorted. A woman lion-hunter entertained a dinner party of distinguished authors. These discoursed largely during the meal, and bored one another and more especially their host, who was not literary. To wake himself up, he excused himself from the table with a vague murmur about opening a window, and went out into the hall. He found the footman soud asleep in a chair. He shook the fellow, and exclaimed angrily: "Wake up! You've been listening at the keyhole."

Quick on the start, prompt on the pickup, economical on the long run—"Red Crown" has all the qualities you demand of a motor fuel, and has them uniformly. Incidentally, it's worth reflecting that the garage man, service station, or other dealer who refuses to let his customers take chances with inferior or unknown motor fuels, is likely to be equally responsible and reliable if your car needs inspection or repairs. Look for the Red Crown disc and the red, white and blue pump—the two signs that identify a reliable dealer. STANDARD OIL COMPANY (California) RED CROWN GASOLINE STANDARD OF QUALITY
