Orange-co., per year, $3; 6 months, $1.75. Entered at the Postoffice at Anaheim, Calif., as second class matter DAILY GREETING TO OUR READERS When foremoons of life are wasted, there is not much hope of a peaceful and fruitful evening. Sun-rising and sun-settings are closely connected in every experience.—Anonymous. TELEPHONED PHOTOGRAPHS Such strides have been made in science and invention and such wonders are accomplished daily, that the announcement that photograph negatives had been sent by telephone by a perfected method during the Republican National Convention, caused scarcely a ripple of comment. It is true, the method used is not entirely new, but is a perfection and a combination of other inventions. The method used is really as simple as the transmission of sound between widely separated points by means of the telephone. A negative is wrapped around a cylinder of the transmitting machine in such a way that a beam of light passing through the negative can impress upon a photo-sensitive cell the variations of light and darkness in the negative. These are carried to the receiving machine in much the same manner that variations of sound are carried as vibrations of electric current. The perfection of a method of telephoning photographs will revolutionize the method of illustrating newspapers, will be of immense value to police departments, and doubtless, will be valuable in other ways that do not yet appear. To be well-informed one must keep abreast of the times—be conversant with current history. World conditions change swiftly in this remarkable age. Fear is man's worst enemy. Fear and worry kill more than fear and pestilence and famine. That which drives fear thought from men is a boon to the race.

To be well-informed one must keep abreast of the times—be conversant with current history. World conditions change swiftly in this remarkable age. Fear is man's worst enemy. Fear and worry kill more than war and pestilence and famine. That which drives fear thoughts from men is a boon to the race. Companionships of children are of the utmost importance. Multitudes of boys and girls today are being ruined by evil companionships. Their parents do not know, or are indifferent. Health can be conserved in California because it is possible to spend so much time in the open air. There is nothing more conducive to health than being in God's unpolluted open air. DEFECTS ARE GLARING IN JURY SYSTEM Defects of the American jury system become manifest frequently. In the trial of two Chicago boy slayers, the case is being heard directly by the presiding judge, because there was a plea of guilty. It is regarded as a godsend that this trial did not come before a jury. That would have meant delay; uncertainty; possibility of a disagreed jury; then a long wait and another trial, with possibly the second jury disagreeing. The jury system, as it exists today, is not a success. It often defeats justice instead of conserving it. Bench and bar admit its defects. There is urging, time after time, that there be reform. But the system remains practically unchanged. Intelligence is at a discount in the jury-box. It should be at a premium. Men of brains should sit on juries. But the lawyers see to it that persons drawn for jury duty have as little brains as possible. Consequently juries that can be wheeled and influenced by cunning attorneys, are the usual thing. There should be such sweeping reform that intelligence and substantiality of character would rule in the jury box.

Sumache (IMBENT) COUNTUPERVISOR TRISTRICT PRIMARY AUGUST 26 WHO'S WHO ON THE DAYS NEWS FRANK B. KELLOGG When the allied conference on preparations, in London, needed a man for the delicate role of mediator, it was a famed "trust buster" from Minnesota who got the job. Frank B. Kellogg, the American ambassador in Great Britain, who while an unofficial sitter-in on the conference, was thrust by circumstance into its most important part, first won nation-wide prominence as special counsel for the government in cases against the paper and oil "trusts." When he became the envoy to London last year in succession to George Harvey, a "mild reservationist" friend of the League of Nations and a supporter of the world court succeeded an irreconcilable at the most important ambassadorial post in Europe, Kellogg is of the type of extreme caution. Frank Billings Kellogg was born at Potsdam, N.Y., Dec. 22, 1856. When nine years old he went to Minnesota with his parents, where he was educated in the common schools and was admitted to the year in 1877. Kellogg first hung out his shingle in Rochester, Minn., but moved to St. Paul in 1887, where he has since lived and practiced law. After representing the United States in its battle with the trusts," he was elected to the U.S. senate as a RePublican for the term 1917-23, and was despatched for re-election by Henrik shipstead, Farmer-Labor candidate. Then came his appointment to London. When Uncle Jack came to visit Billy's family, Billy's mother made 3-tier chocolate cake that was a work of art. COMMENTS OF THE PRESS What Editors Are Saying PROPHETS OF EVIL WORSTED—Santa Barbara News Predictions and propheclesies are most uncertain and unsatisfactory things. Looking into the future seems a good deal like peering into the inwards of a grindstone and the prophetic eye goes about as far in one as the other. When it became evident that there was to be a shortage of rain for the season, all sorts of prophets came into being who undertook to tell what the conditions would be at this or that period during the year. Few of the forecasters took a cheerful view of anything. Probably the weather conditions justified their pessimistic outlook. But, as is so often the case, things are seldom as bad as the imagination of man pictures them. There are nearly always rifts in the clouds that we did not foresee. Conditions develop which we could not foresee. Not so long ago we were told that the plight of the livestock would be so bad during June and July that stock would be ruthlessly slaughtered. Prophets predicted all sorts of disasters in the wake of the dry spring. True, there is a shortage of water that is serious in all parts of the state. Springs that have never been dry, as never failing sources of supply are dry beds of sand and gravel. Springs that have never been dry in the memory of man have disappeared. But strange as it may seem, the feed conditions are assonishingly good when all the circumstances are considered. Reports from all sections of the state indicate that the pasture will carry the stock through the year in most places with some feeding, if the rains are fairly early. In one or two of the counties in the northern part of the State feed conditions are reported nearly normal. On the whole, the live stock is in far better status than was thought possible and summer is well advanced. It is interesting to note also that fruit shipments have been heavy and the crop as a whole will be good. Through irrigation, the trees in most of the fruit districts have been kept in good condition. The walnut crop, according to present indications, will be nearly normal. The State has suffered because of the drought, but that widespread disaster which was foreseen by the prophets has not taken place. Business is proceeding at somewhat slower pace than last year, but it is far better than had been expected. There is every reason for optimism. THE INFERIOR MIND It is an obvious statement to say that the superior mind is distinguished by what it absorbs. When Uncle Jack came to visit Billy's family, Billy's mother made 3-tier chocolate cake that was a work of art. There had been so much talk of the appearance of the wonderful cake that Billy knew that, no matter how much he might be tempted, he mustn't spoil that. But what would be the harm in flipping off that top layer, cutting grand big piece out of the center of the other two layers and then putting the top on in place again? The scheme worked beautifully until his mother's knife went thru the top of the cake and struck the empty plate beneath with a sickening, hollow sound. Later Uncle Jack heard sounds that took him back to his boyhood days, and between sobs, Well, I didn't spoil the looks of the old cake anyway. A commercial traveler visiting warehouse made a bet with the manager that he could pick out all the married men among the employees. Accordingly he stationed himself at the door as they returned from dinner and mentioned all those he believed to be married. Most every case he was right. "How do you do it?" asked the manager. "Oh, it's quite simple," said the traveler. "The married men wipe their feet on the mat; the single one's don't." A Missouri hillman was talking another. "A Northern tourist turned up for a couple of months ago looking for land," said the first. "He had out into the hills on horseback, and his horse slipped and narrowed him over a bluff and broke his leg so's it had to be put off." "That was too durn bad!" commented the other. "It shore was! He went back home as soon as he could travel, and never did buy no land." The stage manager sought out the star of the play in her dressing room before the performance. "My dear, I wish you would wear a different gown in the second act," he told her. But that is the latest style, and paid $200 for it," she remonstrated. That may be true, but when your husband says, 'Woman, you are hiding something from me,' the audience can't figure out what a means." THE INFERIOR MIND It is an obvious statement to say that the superior mind is distinguished by what it absorbs. Herbert Spencer pointed out that just as by appearance, texture, and odor, the superior animal is guided in choosing feed, and swallows only things which contain much organizable matter; so the superior mind, aided by what we may figuratively call intellectual scent, passes by multitudes of unorganizable facts, but quickly detects facts full of significance, and takes them in as materials out of which cardinal truths may be elaborated. "The these less-developed intelligences," he said, "unable to compose these more complex facts and assimilate their components, and having therefore no appetites for them, devour with avidity facts which are mostly valueless; and out of the vast mass absorb very little that helps to form general conceptions. "Concentrated diet furnished by the experiments of the physicist, the investigations of the political economist, the analyses of the psychologist, is intolerable to them, indigestible by them; but, instead, they swallow with greediness the trivial details of tabletalk, the personalities of fashionable life, the garbage of the police and divorce courts; while their reading, in addition to trashy novels, includes memoirs of mediocrities, volumes of gossiping correspondence, with an occasional history, from which they carry away a few facts about battles and doings of conspicuous men. "By such minds, this kind of intellectual provender is alone available; and to feed them in a higher kind would be as impracticable as to feed a cow on meat." The stage manager sought out the star of the play in her dressing room before the performance. "My dear, I wish you would wear a different gown in the second act," he told her. "But that is the latest style, and paid $200 for it," she remonstrated. "That may be true, but when your husband says, 'Woman, you are hiding something from me,' the audience can't figure out what means." Better an hour with your doctor than a year with a nurse.
