Orange co., per year, $2; 6 months $1.75 Entered at the Postoffice at Anakein, Calif., as second class matter DAILY GREETING TO OUR READERS By any and every means an immortal spirit must be set to thinking. It must think responsibility with profound and eager moral consciousness. A great faith must feed on great mysteries. The sinners of its strength must grow tense and wiry by the strain of great conflicts. Austin Phelps. FUEL SUPPLY MAY COME FROM POLES Extensive deposits of coal have been found far up toward the North Pole by Capt. Donald McMillan, Arctic explorer. This is interesting to science in that it confirms the contention of scientists that climatic conditions about the Poles once were temperate. It is held by men of science that the climate about the North Pole once was about the same as is the climate of Pennsylvania now. But general interest in the noted explorer's discovery lies in the possibilities of drawing upon the big deposits of coal in the far North for fuel supplies. If the frozen wastes about the two extremities of the earths' axis are underlaid with vast deposits of coal and other minerals, the ingenuity and energy of man sometime will conquer these inhospitable regions and develop mineral riches. From these regions may come fuel enough to keep the world going when present known supplies are exhausted. The American spirit is during. It coexists danger and adventure.

It coexists danger and adventure. There is no enterprise too perilous for Americans to undertake. Where dash and daring are required, there dashing and daring Americans may be found. WORK AFTER REST Summer vacation days are about over. Most workers are back on the job after a few weeks or a few months of travel or rest. The one who does not feel the same anticipation and delight in getting back into the harness again that he felt when starting on his summer outing, deserves our pity, for he does not like his work and he is headed straight for failure. It is a good thing to get out of the rut for a little while. It gives one a chance to see that the little annoying details of the work are of no consequence. The change of scene or of routine sharpens the mind and rests the body, and gives one courage and fortitude and delight in, the daily grind again. When our fathers Adam learned that he was to earn his bread by the sweat of his brow, he thought God had pronounced a curse upon the world. But, in reality, work is the greatest blessing that has been bestowed upon humanity. The one who does not work does not know half the joy of life. He does not know the pleasure of rest and recreation or the satisfaction of accomplishment. The 1930 census will show some thrilling surprises in population figures of several California cities. There is remarkable growth here. Carelessness with fire in any forest reserve of California is wholly inexcusable. It is a form of recklessness which should be punished exemplarily. California must protect its forests or suffer disaster. 1925 MODELS Don't buy a car until you have thoroughly inspected the New Star Car.

In unexpected larger cold, Ungrateful, that for t PARAGRAPHS By ROBERT QUILLEN It is the mails that are being made safer, not the males. There's one fine thing about a travel. There are no detour signs. The reason some women don't have nerves is because they haven't time. School books, winter clothes, mail. Who could get excited about a mere election? The honeymoon is over when we no longer tries to look her best at home. As we watch the modern ones, we are inclined to the ancient superstition that unusually long hair sapped a girl's vitality. Virtue is unexciting, but nobody throws you out when your hat nickel is spenl. Fabel! Once there was a man who didn't exaggerate the size of his hail stones. If she has won a beauty contest, she probably thinks a laboring device is a mother. It is marvelous the punishment filver can stand, on the road and in a regair shop. If the boy is stupid, he doubts has parents stupid enough to name it on the teacher. If people must gamble with faith, why not load cars like dice. ABE MARTIN A girl almost has t' be a bandit t' be worse'n she's painted. The hair-pin industry is jest about busted, an' we'll bet th' clothspin factories are tickled t' death t' break even. Col. Tillford Huston, once 50-50 owner of the Yankees with Col. Jake Huppert, sat on a restaurant stool one day when a youngster at his elbow introduced himself. He said he had been in the colonel's regiment over in France. "I'm the guy," said he, "who ran Frenchy out of the cookhouse. He said I was going to kill him." The colonel did not remember the event. "What did I say?" he asked. "You says," replied the ex-doughboy. "'Frenchy, go on back and kill killed.'" "And there wasn't any fight." TAGGART'S DEPENDABLE NO GASOLINE SHORTAGE. STATISTICS LEAD READERS ASTRAY," SAYS EXPERT The fuel supply for automobiles is not in danger, according to Percy E. Barbour of New York, who, in the official journal of the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engineers, asserts "statistics are leading people astray in their estimation of the oil industry." Scientific methods are declared to be a factor not generally reckoned with in discussing production and consumption, says Mr. Barbour, editor of Mining and Metallurgy. "Too much weight is being given to the number of automobiles and their anticipated gasoline consumption and too little consideration is given to the improvement in extraction which greatly increase the gasoline yield from crude," he continues. "Current comment is to the effect that the oil industry, which is now in an era of failing prices, must look for improvement to increased gasoline consumption and unusual attention is being given to motor car registration. Heavy Gain In Cars Used "Figures obtained by a prominent oil journal from the varions states for the first four months of the year, the heaviest period of registration, show that, between Jan 1 and May 1, 1924, a total of 13,513,335 cars and trucks were registered, against 10,813,132 in the same period last year. The average gain of all the states compared with last year was 24.9 per cent. "The total estimated registration for 1924 will be over 19,000,000 cars against 9,250,000 in 1920 and a little over 1,000,000 in 1912." Cash Supply Only Limit "Probably the majority of people who own cars cannot afford..." If people must gamble with death, why not load cars like dice on land right side up? If you can't go to Europe to study the grand manner, you can observe floorwalkers. You can estimate your standing at a hick town by the number who try to borrow money from you. Perhaps the most unfortunate man is the one who marries for money and can't get enough of it to buy a divorce. A Class Ad is best little salesman.

P. TAGGART USED CAR NO. 087-W NO. 2 North Probably the majority of people who own cars cannot afford them. This, however, is no direct concern of the petroleum producing companies so long as they can market their gasoline for cash. "The backwardness of the season in the northern and northeastern sections of the country thus far this year has greatly reduced the sale of automobiles, as well as consumption of gasoline. Like any other hours of fleeting time, those hours which have not already been spent in automobiling this year can never be spent again and even considering the main which most motorists have, it is doubtful whether they can make up during the balance of the year for the gasoline consumption which they have saved thus far. "In the meantime, according to current figures given out by the Bureau of Mines, the petroleum refineries of the United States in the month of April established a new record for production when the output mounted to 754,773,223 gallons. This figure surpasses by more than 11,000,000 gallons the high record production mark made in March, which had in turn passed by 48,000,000 gallons the previous high record set in January. Plenty in Reserve However accurate these figures may be the important fundamental consideration is overlooked, and prognostications thus made do not work out. "Gasoline consumption has increased rapidly in the last decade and may be expected to continue to increase for some time to come, but that there has been a gasoline shortage at any time, except during the war period, is to be gravely doubled. The gasoline stocks on hang on May 1 were 9,300,080 barrels, the largest in the history of the industry, but at the correct rate of consumption, that was only 105 days' supply, which is to a day the supply on hand last year at that date." WHO'S WIKI IN THE DAYS NEW! RHINELANDER WALDO A millionaire whose hobby is politics is Rhinelander Waldo, former police commissioner of New York, who is slated to succeed Mal Gen. Leonard Wood, governor general of the Philippines, as administrative head of the islands. Waldo, if named will be technically commissioner general. Waldo resigned the police commissioner recently to lead his aid in the Republican presidential campaign. He was appointed first deputy police commissioner in 1906. In January, 1910, he asked to become commissioner of the New York fire department and spent a year in reorganizing that department and increasing its efficiency. In May, 1911, he was made police commissioner. During his first service with the police department he was sent to Europe to study police methods there and on his return instituted many new ideas in the New York department, including the finger print department. He served as a major of infantry in the national army in the world war and following the conflict assumed his police duties once more. He was born in New York City May 24, 1877.

And princely giver, who has brought the gold And purple of thine heart, unstained, untold And laid them on the outside of the wall For such as I to take or leave withal, In unexpected largess, Am I cold, Ungrateful, that for these most IT'S THE STRUGGLE, NOT THE VICTORY The struggle alone pleases us, not the victory, Pascal opined. "We love to see animals fighting, not the victor infuriated over the vanquished. We would only see the victorious end; and, as soon as it comes, we are satiated. "It is the same in play and the same in search of truth. In disputes we like to see the clash of opinions, but not at all to contemplate truth when it is found. To observe it with pleasure, we have to see it emerge out of strife. "So in the passions, there is pleasure in seeing the collision of two contraries; but when one acquires the mastery, it becomes only brutality. "We never seek things for themselves, but for the search. "Likewise in plays, scenes which do not rouse the emotion of fear are worthless; so are extreme and hopeless misery, brutal just and extreme cruelty." Pascal observed that we do not content ourselves with the life we have in ourselves and in our own being; we desire to live an imaginary life in the minds of others, and for this purpose we endeavor to shine. "We labor unceasingly to adorn and preserve this imaginary existence, and neglect the real. And if we possess calmness, or generosity, or truthfulness, we are eager to make it known, so an attach these virtues to that imaginary existence. "We would rather separate them from ourselves to join them to it; and we would willingly be cowards in order to acquire the reputation of being brave. "A great proof of the nothingness of our being, not to be satisfied with the one without the other, and to renounce the one for the other!"

Health and Diet Advice THE MIND AND DIGESTION After you have paraken of what you honestly consider a wholesome regait, do not proceed to look for trouble, but expect to be unconscious of digestion, and give your mind and thoughts to any constructive or entertaining subject which please you. If you look for gas and digestive discomfort you will probably be able to find them, even if they have to be manufactured in such a wrong expectancy of mind. I find many people troubled after a meal with what they thought was gas, but which usually turns out to be caused by swallowing air while trying to belch gas from the stomach when there really has been no excess fermentation at all. It is surprising how much discomfort can be caused by this habit in the case of one who has had the experience of many years of digestive disturbance and has learned to look for gas after every meal. Time after time I have watched a patient under examination with an X-ray who has behaved exactly as I have indicated. When a meal is given to which is added a certain amount of barium sulphate the exact shape of the stomach can be seen with the aid of the fucroscope screen in the X-ray examination. When a gas pocket forming in the stomach it is plinly visible, and I have seen hundreds of patients start to try to belch up gas immediately after this test meal was given, when there was actually not a sign of gas in the stomach. I have seen these same patients persist in their belching exercise until I could observe them swallow enough air to make a distinct air pocket, and then suffering from this supposed gas, going through all kinds of contortions in an effort to expel the air they had swallowed, in many cases actually "enjoying" more discomfort than would have been caused by the gas from an indigestible meal.
