DAILY GREETING TO OUR READERS
God beholds thee individually, whoever thou art.
"He calls thee by thy name." He sees thee, and understands them—all they own peculiar feelings and thoughts thy positions and likings, they strength and they weakness.—John Henry Newman.
TO FIGHT AUTO THIEVES IN THIS SECTION
The auto thief is to have a harder time, here in Southern California, than heretofore. Federal, state and county officials are organizing to co-operate more closely in apprehending criminals who steal cars and make for the Mexican border. Close watch is to be kept on all roads leading to the Mexican boundary. And prompt notice from the Automobile Club of Southern California, about stolen cars, will be given to authorities, so that all may be on the lookout for the fleeing fugitive who has stolen a car. It is believed that this arrangement will reduce greatly the number of thefts of automobiles in this section.
Stealing of automobiles is a menacing thing. It inspires many a crime. It is a common thing for criminals or would-be criminals to steal an auto and then put forth to hold up a bank, commit highway robbery, kidnap somebody for ransom, or commit the unspeakable crime against a girl or woman. Deprive these daredevils of a machine, and they would not get far in their career of criminality.
There is also the economic loss and the hardship to individual owners in the loss of automobile by theft. This is a big item, as the total value of cars stolen within a year runs.
Doing things to make others happy sweetens the vinegar out of one's nature.
He is a wise man who knows when to keep silent and has the self-control to remain speechless.
A fine thing to say of any man—"He did the right thing, even though it were to his own hurt." But one is not really hurt by doing the right thing.

Beware the scheme that offers you quick riches with little outlay. There is a vast deal of humbuggery under the guise of giving fortunes quickly or a small investment.
The individual voter should think for himself, and form convictions for himself. This should be a year of independent thought and action in politics.

DINNER STORIES
The young lieutenant had but newly joined the regiment, and as this was his first experience of military life he naturally felt rather awkward and afraid of doing the wrong thing. This was particularly the case in the mess, where he was almost afraid to move for fear of acting contrary to military etiquette.
At last the major, rough but kindly at heart, took pity on him, and, slapping him on the back, said jovially:
"I suppose it's the old, old story—what? The fool of the family sent into the army?"
"Oh, no, sir," replied the young man; "things have quite altered since your day."
The son of the house had been reading of an escaped lunatic.
"How do they catch lunatics?" he asked.
The father, who had just paid a number of bills, waxed sarcastle:
With enormous stair hats with little bits of ones, with silks and laces and feathers and jewelry, and so on so on."
"I recall now," the mother spoke up, "I used to wear things of that sort until I married you."
Margaret, five years old, had eaten one of the two boxes of strawberries her mother had purchased, expecting company. Her mother said: "What would you do if you had a little girl and she did a thing like that?"
"Oh, mamma," Margaret exclaimed, eagerly, "I'd make her eat the other box."

The group of dwellers at the seaside was discussing the subject of dreams and their significance. During a pause, one of the party turned to a little girl who had sat listening intently, and asked: "Do you believe that dreams come true?"
"Of course, they do," the child replied firmly. "Last night I dreamed that I went paddling—and I bad!"
Have You a Bad Back?
Then the Advice of This Anaheim Resident Will Interest You
Does your back ache night and day;
Hinder work; destroy your rest?
Are you tortured with stabbing pains
When you stoop, lift or bend?
Then likely your kidneys are weak.
More troubles may soon appear,
Headaches, dizziness, nervousness;
Or urie acid and its ills.
Help your weakened kidneys with a stimulant diuretic.
Use Doan's Pills.
Read this Anaheim testimony:
C. E. Cormack, tailor, 603 E. Center St., says: "I can recommend Doan's Pills as a reliable kidney remedy, as I used them with benefit. My kidneys were weak and out of order and I had a dull aching and soreness across my back. My kidneys did not act right. Doan's Pills soon corrected this trouble, strengthening my back and kidneys."
Price 60c, at all dealers. Don't simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan's Pills—the same that Mr. Cormack had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfrs., Buffalo, N.Y.

WHOS WHO IN THE DAYS NEWS
ETIENNE CLEMENTEL
No man in the public life of France enjoys to a greater degree the respect of his fellow-countrymen than Etienne Clementel, who has just been appointed minister of finance in the new Herriot cabinet at Paris. Former minister of agriculture and commerce, as well as of the colonies, and more recently president of all the united chambers of commerce of France, he is known to his fellow-countrymen as a very able administrator and as possessed of a particularly lofty and delicate sense of personal honor and integrity.
When, shortly before the war, at a time when he held the post of minister for the colonies an unfortunate second marriage led him to take legal action by which the union was annulled, in spite of the protests of the chief magistrate, of the premier and of his colleagues, he insisted upon resigning at once his cabinet office. His attitude in the matter was thoroughly appreciated, and that he now suffered in the estimation of public favor was shown by the universal approval which was shown when Georges Clementeau, in forming the administration under the regime of which the great war was finally won, persuaded Clementel to join his cabinet as minister of commerce.
And for those who dread that the event of the Herriot administration foreshadows the return to power of Joseph Caillaux, it must be remembered that Clementel was one of that Clementeau government which had the courage to arrest ex-Premier Caillaux on a charge of high treason, to place him on trial for his life in the senate, to lay bare his record, and to demand his capital punishment.
The Psychology of Newspaper Advertising
By John Hamilton Curlis
ARTICLE No. 3
MAKING THE PROPER APPEAL
HAVING WRITTEN an advertisement that attracts the buyer's attention and arouses his interest, the next step is to make the right appeal—the appeal that will fit the goods, fit the buyer and fit the merchant. As arousing interest is only striking a chord of common appeal, so making the proper appeal is only a matter of appealing to the strongest interest.
A store that caters to the middle class of people—that is, the working class—is doing wrong to advertise exclusive ware. The greatest appeals in this case would be economy, also service and satisfaction, which, however, are more universal in appeal, and might be used by the other shops as well. On the other hand, the merchant who caters to the exclusive trade, very rarely should advertise bargain sales, but should appeal to the desire for quality, convenience and exclusiveness.
It is equally as great a mistake to advertise that a cheap automobile gives comfort in riding, has limitless power, lines of beauty, etc. Although some of these things may be true, the cheap car would probably be far outclassed by the higher priced competitor. Moreover, it is making the wrong psychological appeal to the prospective purchaser of the cheap car, who is interested first of all in economy and utility. No other appeal can be as strong as that one. The opposite is true of the exclusive car. Here the prospective purchaser is not interested in price, primarily, but in quality.
As was brought out in the article on arousing the buyer's interest, one of the greatest appeals is the taste. Salt is sold by showing its use in rendering various food products more palatable. Bread is made to look more appetizing by covering it with jam. Cooking compounds are sold by picturing fine cakes and pastries, in which the special compound is given the chief credit for the fine baking. This same picture might be used to sell, not only cooking compound, but canned milk, baking powder, flour, flavoring, the coconut that is used in frosting, or even the oven in which it might be baked. In each case the appeal is the same—that of the appetite.
Other appeals may be good health, exclusiveness, luxury, comfort, love of family, self pride and even love of self. The appeal should be used that most nearly fits the thing advertised; the class of people who are to be appealed to, and the business man doing the advertising. Only one appeal should be made in any one advertisement. Though it may cover a multitude of facts, and even contain minor appeals, there should be one clear and distinctive appeal which predominates the entire thought of the advertisement.
