CONVENTION HONOR FOR MRS. PORTER To a Southern California woman—Mrs. Florence Collins Porter of South Pasadena—comes the distinguished honor of being chosen to speak for the California delegation in the Republican National convention in seconding the nomination of Mr. Coolidge for the Presidency. Mrs. Porter, as is well known here, has been very active in the councils of the Republican party in this state for years. To her zeal she adds ability. She will represent California Republicans ably and gracefully in speaking before the national convention. This honor to a woman is earnest of the important part women will play in the forthcoming national campaign. Both of the great political parties undoubtedly recognize women generously in the canvass. This will be no idle flattery, either. Women are earning these distinctions by sheer force of their merits as party workers. They have ability, keenness of mind, tact and graciousness—and these things all count for much in political affairs. Women this year will have more active part than ever before, in responsible positions and works, in the conduct of the national campaign. Mexico is tranquil during a national political campaign. But then, Pancho Villa is dead. AMERICAN AVIATORS IN GOOD FORTUNE YET AMERICAN AVIATORS IN GOOD FORTUNE YET American army aviators, in flight around the world, are crossing Asia rapidly, in 300 and 500 mile laps. They are having the best weather they have had since they started on their historic journey. Soon these intrepid journeymen of the air will have crossed the historic precincts of Asia and will be in Europe, travelling directly toward home. Within a few weeks, should all go well, Californians should be turning out by tens of thousands to greet them as they finish their momentous trip at the point whence they started. They have covered the most perilous portion of the journey. Should good fortune attend them the rest of the way, they will come through safe and successful. Prayers and ardent good wishes of Americans are with them. In truth, the whole civilized world is hoping for their success. The Salration Army has earned its way into the hearts and the confidence of the people. About the best act of this whole session of Congress was last act—final adjournment.

Sycamore St. When some men call themselves "self-made," Mother Nature likely is glad to shift the blame. A universal grouch can elect a ranting radical, but it can't give him any bright ideas. Nature ain't so grand. Poets and kings are born, but a plasterer makes himself what he is. Our insignificant advice to campaign orators is to confine themselves to the red, white and blue. Sap will keep a tree alive, but it takes many saps to keep a political party functioning nicely. The difference between being laid up and laid off is that you never are stalling when laid off.

A president should stand the strain all right if congress stars him in the role of innocent bystander. You will notice that capitalists didn't let Socialists get control of three governments until the things were busted. A man spends a third of his life wondering what he wants, a third in getting it, and a third in wondering what he's gonna do with it. It may be that a particular religion will keep a man out of the White House, but a little more religion of some kind wouldn't harm the entire force of jeb-holders.

FOR INACTIVE KIDNEYS When the kidneys are in need of a good flushing take POLEY PILLS, a diuretic stimulant for the kidneys. They promptly and effectively flush the kidneys, increase their activity and bring pleasant relief. Landon Taylor, Dorchester, Iowa, writes: "I can truthfully say that POLEY PILLS are the best I ever used. I had lots of trouble with my kidneys and liver; I couldn't lift anything my back was so weak. Every morning I was dizzy, could hardy walk, but now I feel fine." Heying's Pharmacy.

DINNER STORIES An old colored man charged with stealing chickens was arraigned in court and was incriminating himself when the judge said: "You ought to have a lawyer. Where's your lawyer?" "Ah, ain't got no lawyer, jedge," said the old man. "Very well, then," said his honor, "I'll assign a lawyer to defend you." "Oh, no, suh; no, suh! Please don't do dat!" the darky begged. "Why not?" asked the judge "It won't cost you anything. Why don't you want a lawyer?" "Well, jedge, Ah'll tell you, suh," said the old man, waving his tattered old hat, confidentially. "Hit's dis way. Ah wan' tah enjoy dem chickens mahsef." Dora one morning refused to get up. When all other means had failed to coax her out of bed, her uncle, a very distinguished man of great learning, was called. "Why won't you get up, my child?" he asked. "Why, Uncle Henry, didn't you tell me to do what the Bible says?" "Yes, certainly." "Well, the Bible doesn't believe in early rising; it says it's a waste of time." Now the uncle is something of an authority on the Bible, but he was not equal to Dora. For once in his life he was nonplussed. "You listen, then," went on the child, in reply to his exclamation of astonishment; and, opening her Bible, she read the second verse of the 127th Psalm with great emphasis: "It is vain for you to rise up early."

MONDELL The west, in particular, is interested in the selection of Frank W. Mondell, former congressman fromoming, as permanent chairman of the Republican national convention. His 26 years of service as congressman from his state and for his work as member of the finance corporation brought him to touch with the entire west. At winter with Eugene Meyer, also of the war finance coration, Mondell made a 10,000 mile tour through the west investing the agricultural conditions. Their findings, made direct by the White House showed clear-Mondell's familiarity with the nation. Mondell's duties as House whip later floor leader gave him a lot of experience in handling bodies as the convention. Lived on Iowa Frontier Mondell was born in St. Louis November 6, 1860. His father of French and English origin, mother of Scotch and German birth. When his parents died he was ten years old at the time. He got to live with the family of a congregational minister and then tried to what was then the frontier in northwestern Iowa. He left the farm when he was and took employment for two years wherever he could find it. In 1887 went to Wyoming. Aided in Founding Town Mondell began prospecting for in the northeastern section that state, and his development CONGRESS' POWER IS GREAT—Presno Republican They are just preparing, in France, to elect President Miller and from office. This sort of thing has never been done in the United States. It can be done in France, and has been several times. The President of France is not chosen by the people; he is chosen for a term of seven years, by the members of the two houses of parliament, sitting together. The French constitution does not provide that parliament shall have power to remove the President. But in practice, an adverse majority in parliament can make it so hot for the President, that he will have to resign. The members of parliament have at least this excuse: They say that as the parliament elects the President, so it can remove him. But it is possible, even in the United States, that the members of Congress might remove the President, through making him thoroughly uncomfortable in office. No such effort has ever been made. The obvious way to make it, if any group in Congress desired to do so, would be to withhold the appropriations for the various departments of which the President is head. We can be thankful that we people in the United States are so well balanced that Congress has never undertaken any such procedure. But there is another way in which a conscientious President might be forced out of office. It is illustrated in the present Japanese question. The Japanese government has represented to the United States that the action of Congress, in adopting the Aslatic exclusion measure, was unlawful, as a contradiction of treaty rights. It is reported from Washington that President Coolidge and Secretary Hughes are preparing to tell Japan that this is not true, that the United States has never abandoned in any way its control over its domestic affairs, such as immigration and residence, and that Congress in adopting the exclusion law has followed law and precedent. But supposing that the President felt otherwise? Supposing that he agreed with Japan, that the Congress o fthe United States was wrong? Then there would be nothing for him to do but to resign. Congress can do what it pleases, right or wrong, within its constitutional limits. It can pass any laws it pleases, by a two-thirds vote and only be questioned by the Supreme Court for constitutional reasons. The President cannot question an act of Congress. But if the President advises Congress against an act, and then Congress passed it, and demanded that the President enforce it—this would morally effect the removal of the President.

He took his seat in the Fifty-fourth congress, in which body he died until 1922. At that time Mondell retired from congress in order to run for senate. He was defeated by Victor B.

POEMS THAT LIVE LINES FROM "IN MEMORIUM" O, yet we trust that somehow good Will be the final goal of ill, To pangs of nature, sins of will, Defects of doubt, and taints of blood. That nothing walks with aimless feet; That not one life shall be destroyed, Or cast as rubbish to the void. When God hath made the pile complete. That not a worm is cloven in vain; That not a moth with vain desire. Is shrivelled in a fruitless fire, Or but subserves another's gain. Behold, we know not anything; I can but trust that good shall fall. At last—far off—at last, to all. And every winter change to spring. —Alfred Tennyson. What do we mean by Boiling Points?
