Entered at the Postoffice at Anaheim, Calif., as second class matter DAILY GREETING TO OUR READERS A life without a purpose is a languid, drifting thing—Thomas a'Kempis. TOURIST MULTITUDES ARE COMING That tourist travel will be exceptionally heavy the coming Fall and Winter, is the confident prediction of a prominent Southern California railroad man. The business and industrial outlook, in the East, is much more favorable. There is a note of optimism all along the line. Nor is this optimism misplaced. Men high in affairs of public and private life foresee steadily bettering conditions. Men like E. H. Gary, chairman of the United States Steel Corporation—men whose judgment is not swayed by the seeming and the meretricious—are auguring better times, based on present conditions and unmistakable prospects. Their prophecies should be accepted as important and in line with what reasonably is to be expected. The protracted session of Congress is over, and the derange ment due to waiting for its action on taxation, is past. The political atmosphere is clearing. There is little or nothing in the national campaign to demoralize business, finance on industry. Furthermore, the word that comes from the Inter-Allied conference in London, is reassuring. There is good reason to hope and believe that the reparations question will be settled for good. This would have beneficial reaction upon economic conditions in the United States. Flying around the world is easy compared with being the lion of a Paris festival of honors—at least, so those modest American aviators probably feel PROSPERITY PRESENT IN CALIFORNIA When one makes a studious survey of conditions as they are, in California, and of prospects for the immediate future, one is impressed with the large measure of prosperity that prevails here. It is true that there have been and there are PROSPERITY PRESENT IN CALIFORNIA When one makes a studious survey of conditions as they are, in California, and of prospects for the immediate future, one is impressed with the large measure of prosperity that prevails here. It is true that there have been and there are untoward conditions. The prevalence, for a time, of the hoof and mouth disease, with resultant quarantines, entailed loss. The unprecedented scarcity of water has had and is having, some detrimental effect. Granting these things, and also that the general situation throughout the country is reflected somewhat here—although not very seriously—California, notwithstanding, is in thriving condition. Its products are finding ready market, and producers of soil crops are getting remunerative returns, in the main. Building activity is pronounced yet—in some localities coming up to, if not exceeding, the high records of last year. It is not a boom year in California, it is true. Nor, on the other hand, is it a year of serious depression. Conditions are improving steadily. Outlook for Fall and Winter is especially bright. Friendship that is not steadfast is a mockery. It's a dull year in Los Angeles when there are not one or two changes in the position of chief of police. Much trouble is self-made. And much is self-imagined. There is not so much real trouble for the average person. A proper concept of life precludes much that is rated as trouble. RE-ELECT Wm. Schumacher (INCUMBENT) COUNTY SUPERVISOR THIRD DISTRICT PRIMARIES, AUGUST 26 Built-in features —cabinet made—for your home Instead of cutting the lumber on the job and constructing the cupboards and other built-in features by the slow hand method, we secure these items from the Pacific mill knocked-down. The carpenter can then devote his entire time to the actual construction and assembly of the items and the finished job will be far neater and reflect finer workmanship. Pacific Homes are in no way portable or sectional. The materials are prepared in ready-cut lengths at the mill so that the carpenter does not have to spend hours of time hand-sawing and trial-fitting the pieces on the job. Let us give you more facts about the ready-cut system and quotes you estimate. Hundreds of plans to select from: H. L. BRISCOE Phone 663W Res. Phone 584J 120 No. Los Angeles St. Anaheim, Calif.

TAGGART'S DEPENDABLE USED CARS WHO'S WHO IN THE DAYS NEWS GIOVANNI GIOLITTI Former Premier Giovanni Gio-liti, mentioned in the news as Italy's premier, was one time branded a traitor and forced to fleet from Rome. Gio-liti emerged from the retirement in which he lived during the war, to become premier. He had opposed Italy's entrance into the struggle and it was thought that this would end his political career forever. But not long after the signing of the treaty of Versailles he was again in favor, and in 1921 he was asked to form a cabinet. Born of parents in a comparatively humble station in Vavour, Piedmont, 31 years ago, Gio-liti started life as a clerk in the government service. Early in life he was called into political service and for several decades he has represented the political district of Dronero (in the province of Cuneo) in the Italian chamber of deputies. In 1891 he proclaimed the right of the laboring classes to strike. He has been one of the foremost political leaders of Europe for more than 30 years, and in his constructive policies has been compared with Gladstone, Bismark and Cavour.

"I did." "And what did the big say?" "Well, he said, 'Go ahead it—you're sure to find some loater on the way to give me hand.'"

"Have you any glue?" The widow wiped her eyes unctortly, and said that she should I heat it?" she said. The undertaker nodded gloom and the relic departed on her hand. Presentely, she retuwith the glue-pot. But the undertaker shook head, and regarded her with pently sad smile to which undertakers are addicted, as he pered solemnly: "I found a tack." A man one day in a sightseer mood, entered a London court. The magistrate happily recognized him as a fellow man and genially invited him take a seat on the bench. Visitor was delighted at the help done him, and as he sat down side the magistrate he looked wonderingly around the crowd.

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 13, 1924 COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying SUPPORT THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS—San Francisco Journal Those who attack them are the ones that need reforming. When you hear a person criticizing the public school system the first investigation you should make is one to ascertain what hidden motive he may have up his sleeve. The public school system is so thoroughly a part of the American scheme of things that for any citizen to suggest destroying it or radically modifying its plan and purpose is to reveal the fact that it is the citizen himself that needs reforming. The idea sometimes fostered that the schools are responsible for the prevalence of crime is based upon a false plane. Crime does not breed in school, but outside of it. The lack of proper home training is mostly responsible for it, and while it is properly the desire of the school to remedy as far as possible this deficiency, it cannot be indicted for a failure to do so. The school does not take the place of the home in the training of the young. It only co-operates with and assists the home in this work. The vital responsibility always rests with the home. It would be exceedingly valuable to collect criminal statistics with a special view to ascertainting the facts concerning the school and home training and the religious influences, or the lack of them, that have surrounded the perpetrators of crime. It is certain that the public schools would not object. THE ART OF MAKING EXCUSES—Glendale News • More people are adept in the art of making excuses than in any other line. There is scarcely anyone who is not naturally gifted, and who has not had considerable experience in framing alibis. We are so fearful lest we lose our self-respect or make ourselves ridiculous as a result of making a mistake or committing a sin that we instinctively defend our actions by recounting the extenuating circumstances. It is a very rare person who can say: "I was to blame," and then not modify the admission by trying to justify himself. It is human nature to wish to appear well in the eyes of others and it seems to be the natural thing to try to prove that we were more the victims of circumstance than of our own folly. extenuating circumstances.
