FIRE PREVENTION DAY Designating October 9 as Fire Prevention Day, President Coolidge in his proclamation says, "The preservation of thousands of lives and valuable property is a task worthy of our constant endeavor and wholesome co-operation." Fire prevention Day comes a little late in the season for California. It is like locking the barn after the horse is stolen to set aside a day for this purpose after thousands of acres of valuable timber has been burned over, beautiful mountain homes and resorts wiped out by flames, and watersheds destroyed. Every day should be fire prevention day in California. Paul G. Redington, United States district forester in San Francisco says there would have been practically no fire hazard in the California national forests, even during the unusual drought of this summer, had human carelessness been eliminated. He declares that 657 out of 839 fires in the state this year were due to negligence. If fire prevention day will impress upon even one careless camper or motorist the importance of being cautious with camp fires, matches and cigarettes, by all means let us observe it! Sensationalized, demoralizing "news" is not fit to be printed and circulated in pure homes. It does no man or woman credit to disbelieve in God, in the face of the many manifest proofs that there is a God. He declares that 657 out of 839 fires in the state this year were due to negligence.

SECOND READING OF IRISH BILL LONDON, Sept. 30—Premier Ramsey MacDonald this afternoon moved second reading of the Irish bill in the house of commons, saying: "It is the essential duty of every government to fulfill its obligations. I resent the charge that we are about to coerce Ulster. This is not a party bill." The Irish bill empowers the government to create a commission to settle the Free State-Ulster boundary dispute without Uister's consent. Try a Classified Ad for results. TAGGART'S DEPENDABLE USED CARS DINNER STORIES A country police officer passed a cow and a calf grazing on the roadside. In the distance he saw a little boy coming along. The officer stopped him and said: "Tell me, my boy, do you know who owns the cow and calf?" "No, sir," said the little boy. "I don't know who owns the cow, but I know who owns the calf." "Who?" said the officer. "I should say the cow, sir." Mrs. Weisenheimer was starting for California, she was to winter among the California roses, and Mr. Weisenheimer was seeing her off. "Darling," he said, in a choked voice, "I don't know what I'll do while you're away. My evenings especially, these long New York winter evenings, they'll be so lonely." "George," said Mrs. Weisenheimer firmly, "during my absence you'll be looked after in that as in all other respects. When you reach home mother will be there. She is to remain till I get back. She'll cheer your evenings with her homely gossip, and solitude need never drive you from your warm fireside out into dreary, cold unfeeling city." That these are two sides to every case is shown by the defense offered by the man who was charged with having deserted his wife. The judge asked him what he had to say to the charge. "It is not true, your honor," declared the man, earnestly. "I am not a deserter, but a refugee."

Nay! well I know he waits not as of old— I could not find him in the old-time place, I must pursue him, made by sorrow bold, Through worlds unknown, in strange celestial race, Whose mystic round no traveller has told, From star to star until I see his faces again. — Louise Chandler Moulton.

This matter has been discussed for some time informally, but now the scientists are going to make a concerted drive for simplification of the calendar. Revolutionary as the thing sounds at first, it commends itself to most people after a little thought. The present system is a queer, complicated arrangement, representing a long succession of compromises. The proposed system is simplicity itself. If would make the calendar month correspond to the lunar month, as it did originally among all nations. Every month would not only have four weeks but would start on the same day of the week — Sunday. Saturday would come always on dates that were multiples of seven, the seventh, fourthteenth, twenty-first and twenty-eighth. Anyone could tell in a moment what day of the week any particular day of the month would come on. The 265 days of the year would make 13 months and one day. The extra day would be a "floating day," known perhaps as "New Years' Eve," regarded as a holiday and not counted. The same thing would be done every four years with "Leap Year Day." Professor Charles F. Murvin, head of the United States Weather Bureau is heartily in favor of the plan. Dr. Henry J. Cox, of Chicago, who will attend the conference in Madrid, says that the churches are not opposed to it because it would not interfere with their calendars. That ought to settle the matter, but probably will not. It takes a long time to overcome the inertia of human institutions, no matter how logical a proposed change may be. Health and Diet Advice By Dr. Frank McCog, Author of "The Fast Way to Health" THE MIND AND DIGESTION If talking will help you and those dining with you, then make suitable comments on any agreeable topics you can think of, even telling stories if need be. Brag about how good you feel and how well everyone at the table looks. Compliment those about you on whatsoever you can find praiseworthy in them or their arrangements.

Brag about how good you feel and how well everyone at the table looks. Compliment those about you on whatsoever you can find praiseworthy in them or their arrangements. If you are at a party you will no doubt find it easy enough to say many pleasant things, and if at home it should be possible to maintain the same spirit which you have no difficulty in exhibiting before friends. Most people are apt to get into a kind of mental rut of inharmonious thought when at the table at home, probably enough because the home folks are forced by circumstances to submit to such ways, whereas the same actions if indulged in before others might lead to the loss of valuable friendships. If the events of the day have been trying, it is much better to lie down and relax before the meal, and if possible change to fresh clothes before coming to the table. Try to clean up mentally as well as physically before you offer yourself to your family in the evening, and before you partake of the food which has been carefully chosen for the nourishment of your body. Do not make the mistake of using the "will" as an aid to digestion, but rather put into operation the powers of desire and expectancy, as these will be found to be much more powerful agents in bringing about the object you are trying to accomplish. (To Be Continued) WILLIAM ALLEN WHITE Sans campaign manager, headquarters and all the other "usual machinery" of candidates, William Allen White is running for governor of Kansas on an independent ticket. He has adopted for his chief campaign slogan: "Free Kansas from the Ku Klux Klan." White, newspaper man and author, is one of the outstanding figures in Kansas politics. He drew national attention by the prominent part he took in the "Bull Moose" campaign of 1912 and continued an important figure in the progressive movement up to 1916. His closest friend is ex-Governor Henry T. Allen and the two have enlivened Kansas politics many times. While governor Allen had White ordered jailed when the latter posted a placard in the window of his Emporia newspaper expressing sympathy with striking railroad workers. The two worked together in welfare projects during the war and White later wrote a book on their experiences, calling it: "The Martial Adventure of Henry and Me." White is now a trustee of the Rookfeller Foundation. He was a member of the committee which awarded the prize in the Bok peace award contest. He is also the author of the prize winning editorial in the Pulitzer contest for 1923. He first attracted attention as a writer with his editorial, "What's the Matter With Kansas?" He is 56 and married. There are just two seasons in the year when people should remain out-doors as much as possible;—when the ground is covered with snow and when it isn't.
