ADVERTISING GAINS IN VOLUME Advertising has become one of the greatest business institutions of modern times. There always has been business publicity, of one kind and another. But in the last half century there has been the most stupendous development in advertising the world has ever seen. It has been contemporaneous with the evolution of the modern daily newspaper and the magazine. Advertising has been reduced to a system. Hundreds of millions of dollars annually is expended in advertising in this country. That advertising is on the increase is shown by the report from the American Association of Advertising Agents. They say that the volume of national advertising this year shows a gain of 8 per cent compared with the volume for last year. National advertisers spend many millions in exploiting various products. This means that their advertising goes into newspapers and magazines in all parts of the country. These shrewd advertisers never cease putting forward their publicity. They get profitable returns. If they did not, they would not advertise as they do. It is common knowledge that judicious advertising has built up some of the greatest business fortunes in this country. Besides the great volume of national advertising, there is steady gain in volume of local advertising in every wide-awake community in the land. The daily newspaper carries the bulk of this advertising. Business could not go on and flourish without this effectual means of reaching the people promptly and persistently.

The daily newspaper carries the bulk of this advertising. Business could not go on and flourish without this effectual means of reaching the people promptly and persistently. Pessimism is the puncture to the tires of the wheels of progress. PSYCHOLOGIC FACTOR IS IMPORTANT There is a subtle force, too impalpable to be put into material terms, which, for want of a better name, men call "psychology." It is a great factor in human society. Its force is felt in many ways and in diverse channels. Psychological influence may be for gladdening or saddening men in the mass; it may be enheartening or disheartening. But it is a real force and an actual influence. It comes into the lives of men and women, and impels them to do or not to do. It is felt in patriotic fervor, or in the opposite. It is felt in politics. It is felt in social life. It is felt in religion. It is felt in every human activity. Men are coming to reckon the "psychologic effect" upon the people when they propose certain things or espouse certain causes. This silent, mysterious force is a recognized factor in human affairs. Virginia produces great quantities of peanuts—but not all of them. There is politics. 4 TRIPS DAILY To meet the demands of our Anaheim patrons we have arranged for a four trip daily freight schedule between Anaheim and Los Angeles.

ABE MARTIN DINNER STORIES Workmen were making repairs on the wires in a schoolhouse one Saturday, when a small boy wandered in. "What you doin'?" "Installing an electric switch," one of the workmen said. The boy then volunteered: "I don't care. We've moved away and I don't go to this school any more." When Alice Roosevelt was at school her teacher asked her one day: "Alice, is your mother still sick?" "Yes, Miss Blank," Alice replied, says Miss Margaret Wentworth of Washington, D.C. "Yes, and it is very inconvenient for me." "What do you mean, Alice?" "Well, you see, Miss Blank, if I'm due home at 4 o'clock and I get in at half-past 4 mother understands; but if I get in even five minutes past 4, father doesn't understand a bit!" A clergyman was traveling in Scotland. He was shocked at the dismal ugleness of the Psalm tunes in the Scotch churches, and complained to a Scotch minister one day. "Why such ugly tunes?" he said. "Ah," said the Scotsman, "those tunes are very, very old. They are believed to be the very ones that David played on his harp." "In that case," said the Ameri- can, "it's no wonder Saul threw his javelin at him." SUNSHINE PELLETS BY DR. W. F.

MALTBY Santa Ana and Los Angeles Phone 123 Southern Pacific "CAPTAL PUNISHMENT IS A FAILURE," SAYS WARDEN OF SING SING PRISON Warden Lewis E. Lawes of Sing Sing prison, in a recent address, declared that in six years only 3 per cent of the 1800 homicides in New York City had resulted in death sentences and that 50 per cent more individuals have been killed by the police than by the Sing Sing electric chair during that period. "We are passing through a period of disregard for law on all sides and by all classes," the warden said. "We cannot view some forms of lawlessness with complacence without letting down in the legal machinery all along the line." "One factor peculiar to us is the difficulty of assimilating many foreign elements into our population, and closely related to this is the problem of education. Sixty-five per cent of the inmates received in Sing Sing during the fiscal year just ended were below the eighth grade of grammar school in training. Nor is the illiteracy due to the youthfulness of the inmate. The average age of the inmate for the past two fiscal years has been higher than the average for any two years within a decade. For the year just ended the average age of an inmate was 29 years 1 month." "Our methods of criminal procedure are defective. We have delays and faulty ball methods, and then there is the signal failure of capital punishment." "The latter is perhaps the most striking example of the many where the law holds a threat so severe it is seldom carried out. The very elements that make it unenforceable are human ones that can't be overcome. That is why this form of punishment can never be any better. In spite of somewhat pessimistic indications, I wish to sound a COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying NON-VOTING MENACE TO COUNTRY—Kansas City Star Participation in the selection of public officials is, along with the obligation to defend the country, the first duty of citizenship. The right of suffrage is the distinguishing mark of American democracy. The failure to exercise it, on the part of any considerer, number of citizens, is the failure of democracy itself. Of the 53,000,000 citizens qualified to vote for Presidents in 1920, only 26,000,000 voted. Twenty-seven million stayed away from the polls. A minority of the citizens of United States elected the President. This indicated failure of democracy is a growing condition. In 1896 80 per cent of the vote participated in the Presidential election, in 1900 73 per cent, 1908, 66 per cent, 1912, 62 per cent. Four years ago less than 50 per cent went to the polls. The majority had ceased to govern. Every citizen who fails to register is doing his part to destroy the republic. Democracy will not endure, does not endure when only a minority of the people vote. It cannot exist except as it rests on the foundation of the ballot. That foundation is being steadily withdrawn. GLEANINGS FROM THE BOOK OF LIFE THE BEST SCHOOL Experience keeps a dear school, but fools will learn in no other way, and scarce in that; for it is true we may give advice but we cannot give conduct, opined Benjamin Franklin. Carlyle put it slightly different. Experience does take dreary high school wages, but he teaches like no other. Experience is a process that continually gives us new material to digest. We handle this intellectually by the mass of beliefs which we find ourselves already possessed, assimilating, rejecting or re-arranging in different degrees. Some of the appreceiving ideas are recent acquisitions of our own, but most of them are common-sense traditions of the race. William James said there is probably not a common sense tradition, of all those which we now live by, that was not in the first instance a genuine discovery, an inductive generalization like those more recent ones of the atom, of inertia, of energy, of reflex action, or of fitness to survive. The notions of one Time and one Space as single continuous receptacles; the distinction between thoughts and things, matter and mind; between permanent subjects and changing attributes; the conception of classes with sub-classes within them; the separation of fortuitous from regularly caused connections; surely, as James believed, all these were once definite conquests made historic daily by our ancestors in their attempts to get chaos of their crude in virtual experiences into a mere "Our methods of criminal procedure are defective. We have de-lays and faulty ball methods, and then there is the signal failure of capital punishment. "The latter is perhaps the most striking example of the many where the law holds a threat so severe it is seldom carried out. The very elements that make it unenforceable are human ones that can't be overcome. That is why this form of punishment can never be any better. In spite of somewhat pessimistic indications, I wish to sound a note of optimism. I don't believe crime in general is as rampant as it is popularly supposed to be. Prison commitments show no tendency toward an increase in proportion to the population. Juvenile delinquency is certainly decreasing." WHO'S WHO IN THE DAYS NEWS KENTARO KANEKO As a protest against the passage of the American immigration bill containing the Japanese exclusion clause, Viscount Kentaro Kaneko has resigned as president of the America-Japan society, an organization which was founded six years ago and which includes many of the most prominent Japanese in the country. Much bitterness was made manifest by the viscount in tendering his resignation and he is reported to have declared: "America is sending us to hell." Viscount Kaneko has devoted a large part of his life in promoting friendly relations between America and Japan. For many years he and Viscount Shibusawa advocated a joint Japanese-American high commission to study the question of immigration, but the plan never met with the favor of the Japanese government. In 1904 as financial commissioner to the United States Viscount Kaneko negotiated Japan's first war loan abroad. This was at the outset of the Russo-Japan war. While active in this country as financial commissioner Viscount Kaneko became a friend of President Roosevelt, and developed a great admiration for him. Graduating from Harvard in the class of '78 Viscount Kaneko returned to Japan where he became private secretary to the late Prince Ito, who was then premier. In 1901 he became minister of justice. Some of the appreceiving ideas are recent acquisitions of our own, but most of them are common-sense traditions of the race. William James said there is probably not a common sense tradition, of all those which we now live by, that was not in the first instance a genuine discovery, an inductive generalization like those more recent ones of the atom, of inertia, of energy, of reflex action, or of fitness to survive. The notions of one Time and one Space as single continuous receptacles; the distinction between thoughts and things, matter and mind; between permanent subjects and changing attributes; the conception of clauses with sub-classes within them; the separation of fortuitous from regularly caused connections; surely, as James believed, all these were once definite conquests made historic days by our ancestors in their attempts to get chaos of their crude individual experiences into a more shareable and manageable shape. "They proved of such foreign use as denkmittel that they cannot not a part of the very structure of our mind. We cannot play fast and loose with them. No experience can upset them. On the contrary, they appercive every experience and assign it to its place. "To what effect?" he asks. "That we may better foresee the course of our experiences, communicate with one another, and steer our lives by rule." Also that we may have a cleaner, more inclusive mental view." When a rattle drops out of the hand of a baby, he does not look to see where it has gone. Non-perception he accepts as annihilation until he finds a better belief. That our perceptions mean beings, rattles that are there whether we hold them in our hands, becomes an interpretation so luminous of what happens to us, that once employed, it never gets forgotten. It applies with equal felicity to things and persons, to the objective and to the ejective realm." Don't Forget That The Ever-Ready Truck & Transfer Co.
