Warren Stearns, Bor widely known psychiatrist, bases his assumption on a cation of facts about suicide have been incorporated international journals. With its mental development says Dr. Stearns, Boston Tuesday was a busy day getting everything in tip top shape and in the evening a huge bonfire was built. The self-government committee was chosen.

The mayor took charge on Wednesday and report of the council meeting was given. The first issue of the Grumbler was also read. Mr. Ashleigh entertained with a good story. The boys report the cats are excellent which are prepared by Harry White, assisted by Edwin Beele, who has a tendency to get "bessy." The camp shows excellent spirit for such a new camp. Emley Beck and Norman Ruff were recommended for the California Rag Society. The camp will disband, Aug. 13. HAMMERING AWAY LOS ANGELES, Aug. 2.—A hammer was the favorite weapon of Mrs. Freda L. Hammer, according to her husband, Sylvester B. Hammer. Sometimes Mrs. Hammer used an ice pick and sometimes a revolver, but more often it was a hammer, according to her husband's charges. The Hammers are battling in Judge W. C. Doran's court in a contested divorce. The wistful appeal of Jane Novak once again holds her audiences enraptured in "The Lullaby," her latest starring production which will be seen at the United Theater Sunday and Monday. Portraying three distinct characters in this picture, Miss Novak achieves what is considered a triump eclipse even her own former successes. As the joyful emigrant wife Felipa, in America on her honeymoon, upon whom life has left no trade of its countless tribulations; later as Filipa, the mother, a product of our heart-reading civilization, as finally as Antoinetter, the beautiful daughter, raised to take her heritage of wealth and position for granted, in absolute ignorance of her humble origin. Miss Novak demonstrates her verability as portrayer of all human emotions. Two New Yorkers per thousand population died 50 years ago where one dies today. Fifty years ago the average citizen of Massachusetts was "expected" to reach 40 years, today he is "expected" to live 54 years. California Theatre High SUN. & MON.

Warren predicted that his successor would be appointed with delay, as President Coolidge, whose guest he is at the White House, is desirous of filling the office. The American stealth claims commission meets at Mexico City to begin the adjudication of the claims of the two governments. BOSTON'S BRAINS RECOMING WARPED BOSTON, Aug. 1.—Boston has many wrinkles on its brain—too much intellectualism, too much imagination, too much culinary—that is, too much to accept sweet with the sour and plug normally to a natural death. That's why it leads the country in recently compiled sui-statistics, made public by Dr. Derick Hoffman, nationally known statistician. Suicide is a disease and Boston it bad. And if Boston had the lowest educational standard in the country, dead of the highest, which is rarely credited her, she'd have lowest suicide rate. These are the conclusions of A. Warren Stearns, Boston's only known psychiatrist, who has his assumption on a collection of facts about suicide that he been incorporated into international journals. With its mental development, Dr. Stearns, Boston has related the pleasings with Mexico. CHILD CHOKED ON ALMOND KERNEL LODI, Calif., Aug. 2.—Returning to her home after attending the funeral of her father, Mrs. L.C. Weize found her 2-year-old daughter, Lois, gasping for breath and apparently in the agonies of death. The child was rushed to a physician who discovered the youngster had swallowed an almond and that the nut had landed in her windpipe. Removal of the almond necessitated an operation. SEES IMMORTALITY FOR HUMAN RACE COLUMBUS, Ohio, Aug. 2.—Dawn of the millennium is near, perhaps 20 or 25 years distant, but easily within the natural life of the present generation. This is the belief of Judge J.F. Rutherford, Brooklyn, N.Y., president of the International Bible Students' Assn., which was holding its international convention here recently. "Millions now living will never die," declared Judge Rutherford, who became head of the Bible students' organization following the demise of the famous Pastor Russell, founder of the association. "And when I say they will not die, I mean it in a purely literal, physical sense," he added. "Men will gradually become younger in characteristics and appearance," he said. "Such transformation will not be instantaneous. It will stand over a reasonable length of time. We now are only in the first stage." When asked whether childbirth would continue after the millennium actually begins, Judge Rutherford replied that he did not know. "However, if children do cease to be born, it probably will be accomplished by a gradual decrease SEEK THIEF WHO "SPILLED BEANS" Local police are searching for a burglar who last night "spilled the beans" in the Jap pool hall on So. Lemon-st, took the sack in which contained the frijoles filled it with 25 cartons of cigarettes and a kodak and made his escape thru the back window. The burglary occurred between 9 and 10 Glocks, it is said. REPORT BULGARIA CALLS 4000 TROOPS ATHENS, Aug. 2.—A report that Bulgaria is calling 4000 volunteers to the colors led to fears here today that the Bulgarian government is mobilizing. Bulgarians officials at Sofia claimed that the troops were being massed to combat Communism. Bulgarian comitadjis (irregulators) have been causing the Greeks much trouble, making raids over the frontier into Greek Macedonia. FARM LAND VALUES SHOW DECREASE CHICAGO., Aug. 2.—Farmland values have dropped more than $18,000,000,000 since 1920. This mammoth depreciation of agricultural property involves every state in the Union except three. The greatest loss has been felt in the middle west, where grain and livestock are the principal crops and where the greater bulk of the food supply of the United States is produced. This was the surprising result of a recent agricultural survey. Good plough lands in Iowa, which averaged $257 an acre for the entire state five years ago, today are valued at an average of $169 an acre. Plough lands in Norma Talmadge and Schildkraut—the supreme enne—the most magnetic Here is a new alliance with fans will anticipate with Norma and Schildkraut what their first appearance to "The Song of Love," a barbaric life and love on der of the Arabian desert California Theater tomorrow Monday.

Unhappily married people mit suicide oftener than the imply married. This is so in one of the steady rise in di-ces which has accompanied the idle rate. The relaxed attitude toward idle stilts remains one of the factors. We shall have to stop a respect for the privilege life, and a little more game for our present aestheticism, where we can eliminate suicide." "In Dealer Classified Ads pro-results. Try this medium" "Men will gradually become younger in characteristics and appearance," he said. "Such transformation will not be instantaneous. It will stand over a reasonable length of time. We now are only in the first stage." When asked whether childbirth would continue after the millennium actually begins, Judge Rutherford replied that he did not know. However, if children do cease to be born, it probably will be accomplished by a gradual decrease in the birth rate, and not by an abrupt stop," he yntrified. As conditions will be in millennial days, there will be a simple room on earth for all, even tho the population is not decreased by death, according to the head of the Bible students. There also will be plenty of food to serve the needs of all, he believes. Declaring that he was neither pro-Ku Klux Klan nor a member of the Roman Catholic church, Judge Rutherford said the strife existing between those institutions probably will continue for some time—may even reach a greater intensity than at present—but will be expunged entirely with the appearance of the new age. Wherever there is a case of typhoid fever someone has been guilty of criminal negligence. No wonder truth wears a black eye most of the time; think how often she's crushed to earth." "Mammoth depreciation of agricultural property involves every state in the Union except three. The greatest loss has been felt in the middle west, where grain and livestock are the principal crops and where the greater bulk of the food supply of the United States is produced. This was the surprising result of a recent agricultural survey. Good plough lands in Iowa, which averaged $257 an acre for the entire state five years ago, today are valued at an average of $169 an acre. Plough lands in Ohio decreased from $132 per acre to $96 during the same period. The equivalent figures for Illinois are $213 in 1920 and $148 in 1924. South Dakota shows a shrinkage of 59 per cent. Western irrigated lands, the survey shows, make the best showing when taken as a whole. Several of these states have nearly held their own in land values. This is largely due to new irrigation projects that have been going through the improvement and investment stage during the last five years." "JUDGMENT AWARDED" Judgment aggregating $249.25 was on record today in Justice J. E. Cox's court in favor of H. J. Neff and J. P. Neff, who brought suit against the Harper Brothers Commercial Co. for wages alleged to be unpaid. Each plaintiff claimed 30 days wages at $3.50 per day."

IN LENGTH CHICAGO, Aug. 2.—Boards 900 feet long are the miracle of the new synthetic lumber, according to B. G. Dahlberg, in an address here. "Boards 900 feet long are made daily at mills near New Orleans out of bagasse, the waste fibre of sugar cane," said Mr. Dahlberg. "A 900-foot board, until synthetic lumber was discovered, was a thing unheard of and never dreamed of in the world. If stood on end, it would be taller than any building ever erected by man except the Eiffel Tower, which is 984 feet high. It would reach 400 feet above the top of the Washington monument and 300 feet above the Woolworth building, the tallest building in the world. It would be more than twice the height of the Pyramid of Cheops, or the tallest sequoia in California's big tree forests. These 900-foot boards are 12 feet wide as they come from the mill at the rate of 450 lineal feet an hour, a half-million feet daily. The operation is continuous. A single board could be made that would reach around the earth. The slabs as they come from the machine are sawed into boards of stock sizes.

"The new lumber is flawless. It has no knots nor sap, no cross-grains, no irregular edges, no variation in stitchery, width or thickness. It has qualities that natural lumber lacks: It does not decay. It is weather proof. It has the insulation, value of wood, which cuts down the fuel bill and makes homes cool in summer and warm in winter. It is a sound-deadener, which is important in this age of nerve-wracking industrial noises." ASON RE! CALIFORNIA THEATRE MOVIE TODAY" FRI. & SAT.
