Hester Editor and Publisher DAILY GREETING TO OUR READERS Love, faith and obedience are sides of the same prism.—George MacDonald. HEROIC MOVES NEEDED TO SAVE FORESTS Moves the most heroic and unusual are in order, to save the forests of California, and to prevent fire disasters, the most alarming in the history of the state. Withdrawal of portions of the forest reserves of the state from visits by picnickers and campers is justified. While the greater number of those going in to the mountains and canyons may be, and are, careful with fire, yet sprinkled among the careful ones are a comparatively few who are careless. And a few careless persons, turned loose in forest reserves, could create havoc. The state is increasing its ranger force, the better to guard forests not included in the federal reserves. This is well. There should be, also, the most intimate liaison between the citizenry of the state and the constituted authorities, in fighting this menace. "It is a condition, not a theory" that confronts the state, as regards forest fires. Conflagrations are raging in all sections of the state. Much valuable timber and improved property already have been destroyed. The preventive hand of the state should be stretched forth with strength and vigor, and with promptitude. Mere promises do not relieve the tax payer. If you would enjoy life and be useful in life, conserve your health. Back of every ballot cast in November should be conscience, conviction and mature thought. When supreme grief comes there is but one source of am Mere promises do not relieve the tax payer. If you would enjoy life and be useful in life, conserve your health. Back of every ballot cast in November should be conscience, conviction and mature thought. When supreme grief comes, there is but one source of unfailing comfort. Men and women turn instinctively to God when all human means fail—when the hand of death and disaster falls relentlessly. California should get busy soon, in efforts to bring all the big national political conventions to this state in 1928. The mere ambitious the campaign this state makes for these conventions, the greater the likelihood that it will get one or more of them. Why Ants Leave Home!

"What be these 'ere street cars like?" asked the yokel after a minute or two. "Well—er—" replied the lad, they're like—er—um—and they doe like a thingumbob—in fact, they're absolutely it." "Well, I never!" exclaimer the yokel in surprise. "I knew they was wonderful things, but I ain't heard details afore." An Irishman on a scaffolding four stories high heard the moon christmas. But when he would have escended, he found that the ladder had been removed. One of his fellow workmen on the pavement below, to whom he called, explained that the foreman had carried off the ladder for another job. "But how'll I get down?" Pat demanded. Mike, on the pavement, suggested jumping as the only means. It's lunch was below, he was hungry, and he accepted the suggestion seriously. "Will yes kitch me?" he demanded. "Sure, an' I'll do that," Mike agreed. Pat clapped his arms in imitation of a rooster, and crowed, to listen up his courage, and leaped. He regained consciousness after a short interval, and feebly sat up on the pavement. He regarded like reproachfully. "For why did yez not kitch me?" he asked, and the pain in his bones sounded in his voice. "Begorry," Mike replied sympathetically, "I was waiting for time when it apparently smothered up and almost extinct."

The Most Dangerous Weapon A general, asked to name the most dangerous weapon, did not quote the ancient platitude, "The pen is mightier than the sword," but answered, "The tongue." He only gave the essence of what a famous French preacher, Bishop Jean Baptiste Massillon, said about the Malignant Tongue, in a sermon: The tongue, says the Apostle James, is a devouring fire, a world of iniquity, an unruly evil, full of deadly poison. And behold what I would have applied to the tongue of the evil-speaker, had I undertaken to give you a just and natural idea of all the enormity of this vice: I would have said that the tongue of the slanderer is a decouring fire which tarnishes whatever it touches; which exercises its fury on the good grain, equally as on the chaff; on the profane, as on the sacred; Which, wherever it passes, leaves only desolation and ruin; digs even into the bowels of the earth, and fixes itself on things the most hidden; turns into vile ashes what only a moment before had appeared to us so precious and brilliant; acts with more violence and danger than ever in the time when it apparently smothered up and almost extinguished it. Which blackens what it can not consume, and sometimes snarls and delights before it destroys. I would have told you that evil-speaking is an assemblage of insults: a secret pride, which discovers to us the mota in our brother's eye; butides the beam which is in our own; A mean envy, which hurts at the talents of prosperity of others, makes them the subject of its censures, and studies to dim the splendor of whatever outstimulates a disgusted hatred, which sheds in its speeches, the hidden venom of the heart; An unworthy duplicity, which prises to the face and stares at pieces behind the back; a shameful levity, which has no command over itself orits words, and often sacrifices both fortune and comfort to the impudence of an misusing conversation; A deliberate barbarity, which goes to pierce your absent brother; a scandal, where you become a subject of shame and sin to those who listen to your an injustice, where you ravish from your brother what is dearest to him.
