GEN. GOETHALS TO PASS ON DAM PLANS Gen. George Goethals, builder of the Panama canal and the world renowned engineer, has been engaged by the Board of Supervisors of Los Angeles to be consulting engineer for the Los Angeles County Flood Control District. Some $35,000,000 of bond money, voted by the people last May, is to be expended in building dams to control floods in this country and to impound surplus waters for the benefit of the county. This is one of the greatest projects of the kind ever undertaken. It is quite the wise and proper thing to call into consultation one of the greatest engineers of the age. Los Angeles County wants this work done right. It is no reflection upon County Flood Control Engineer Reagan, to have a consultant. Truth is, the work will be done according to home-made plans. General Goethals may not change these plans in any important particular at all. But the fact that an authority so able and so eminent as General Goethals is supervising and advising, reassures everybody concerned, including the county engineer himself. General Goethals has been formally engaged for this consulting work, and is making personal inspection of the dam sites. Plans and preparations will be under his expert eye from their very inception.

No people, in national life, rise above their ideals. Pity that they do not keep scandal investigations out of the political campaign. It required brains and prudence, as well as courage and persistence, to make the first successful air flight around the world. 233 E. Center St. Anaheim 248 W.

How has this come about? By going after those women who not themselves go after information on public questions." "Women are no longer lucky by a slogan.

Republican The reason why the Republican prefers that President Coolidge should succeed himself is very simple. It is necessary to eliminate Mr. La Follette as first choice. His specific program is not appealing. His one proposal to transfer to a political body like Congress power to define the meaning of the Federal Constitution is enough to counter-balance the attractive features of his candidacy. The Republican believes in the United States Supreme Court. It believes in courts for the determination of disputed questions, constitutional or statutory or contractual. The world is the victim of horrible wars between nations because the world is not developed to the point of an international high court of justice that would function with the same moral and legal authority as between international litigants that is vested in the Supreme Court of the United States. Courts and civilization go together. Mr. La Follette stands for the formation of a new party, yet what the projectors of that party aim to do eventually is too indefinite to command one's support. Mr. La Follette himself would destroy the "trust," yet the present parties are pledged to enforce the anti-trust laws. The present administration's record in that line is very fair. Mr. La Follette's platform points to government ownership of railroads, yet the present transportation act merits much more of a test than has, yet been given to it before putting the government permanently into the railroad business and saddling it with many billions of dollars more debt necessary for the purchase of the roads from their present owners.

THE MIND AND DIGESTION Those who develop the habit of taking soda after a meal often only expel the gas which the mixture of soda and stomach acid will invariably produce. After this gas has been expelled the patient will develop a real indigestion because of the fact that the alkaline soda has destroyed the digestive juice of the stomach, and the food cannot digest as well as if the soda had not been taken. If gas has actually been formed because of fermenting food it will come up easily by itself, and you do not have to search for it. There will often be a good deal of flatulence produced in the chronic dyspeptic even when good food is used, caused by digestive juices which have not so far been properly balanced by the digestive powers to enable them to take care of well proportioned THE MIND AND DIGESTION Those who develop the habit of taking soda after a meal often only expel the gas which the mixture of soda and stomach acid will invariably produce.

There will often be a good deal of flatulence produced in the chronic dyspeptic even when good food is used, caused by digestive juices which have not so far been properly balanced by the digestive powers to enable them to take care of well proportioned meals, after the body has so long accustomed to improper ones. Some of these juices are alkaline and others acid, and if I am an excess supply, the amount left over, which is not used in the process of digestion, will often make gas by the combination by a gall and acid. This will gradually disappear as the proper my tissue in the right amounts and combinations. (TO BE CONTINUED) M. E.
