GREAT DIPLOMAT LOVES BIRD FRIENDS A pretty story comes from Washington. It concerns a great diplomat and his wife, on the one hand, and the birds of the air, on the other hand. Jules Jusserand, Ambassador of France, dean of Washingtons diplomatic corps, who, with Mine, Jusserand, will retire the first of the year to their country home near Paris, are remembering the birds of Piney Branch Valley, one of the municipal parks of Washington. In the stormy days of the early period of the World War, Ambassador and Mine, Jusserand spent their leisure hours in this wooded spot in Rock Creek Park. There the birds sang to them and they were solaced. They are having a bird bath constructed, of stone to be brought from France. This inscription is to be placed upon the stone: "To the Birds of Piney Branch—From their friends, Elsie and Jules Jusserand." Now, this is real graciousness. The birds, in their own way, will manifest their gratitude. And it will be a sweet thought to the great diplomat and his wife to think of their little feathered friends regaling themselves in the cooling waters. They who are kindly and considerate towards animals evince real gentility. A well defined plan to bring the right kind of industries to Anaheim should receive hearty support.

CLIMATE HERE HOLDS POPULARITY Providence has given Southern California a precious legacy that men cannot take away. Envious tongues and typewriters and printing presses may disparage California to the limit—but the truth eventually prevails. There is no successful disparagement of California climate. Dr. Ford A. Carpenter, meteorologist of the Los Angeles Chamber of Commerce, says that science backs all claims made as to the mildness, delightfulness and salubriousness of the climate of Southern California. Thank Dr. Carpenter for this. It is well to have the backing of science. But the human body is sufficient tester as to climate. All who fall under the spell of the genial days and comfortable nights here need no scientific substiation of the superb and satisfying quality of climate. And let this thought persist: Climate is a perpetual asset here. No grave and reverend savant can sit down and calculate an end to superior climate here. The noble man of science may estimate with exactitude the number of years it will require to exhaust the Nation’s reserve supply of coal., of oil, and of timber. But he cannot place meters and bounds on this Southland’s climate. Providence has given a deed in perpetuity, with clear title, to Southern California, for the maintenance of climatic conditions which challenge comparison with the mildest, most genial, most exhilarating on the face of the earth.

Now approaches the glad time when the daily dozen means bickwheat cakes. A free country is one in which every man has the right to feel equal to his betters.

Marriage, the relations between man and woman, have corrupted the race and set the seal of slavery upon all." "Marriage! Nothing else demands so much from a man!" Ibsen saw modern society not as a fellowship of mankind; but only as a fusion of men. His fundamental principal in every field and domain of that was that the MINORITY are always in the right. "It's a lie that truth always belongs to the majority," he asserted. "What kind of truths do the majority rally around? They are truths so old that they are positively decrepit with age. When a truth is hoary with years it is in a fair way to become a lie. "A normally constituted truth, will live, say, about seventeen to eighteen, at the very outside twenty years, seldom longer. But such ancient truths are always shockingly emaciated." "The majority is never right," he wrote at another time. "Never, I say. That is one of society's lies against which a free, thoughtful man must rebel. "Who are they who make up the majority in a country? Are they the wise men or the foolish?" Is there anyone who has not, at some given moment, recognized himself a hive of contradictions — between his word and his deed, his will and his work, his life and his principles? Who is there who has not at some time selfishly held himself to be all-sufficient, and half-unconsciously, half knowingly, excused his attitude to both himself on the new track in which is 131.6 miles DINNER SHOP The boy hurried his father with an announcement "Me and Joe Peck today."

Correct this sentence "He has preached for us six years, said she," and nobody in the church knocks him." HEALTH & DIET ADVICE By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" GOOD, COOKED, NON-STARCHY VEGETABLES (Continued) EGG PLANT should be prepared by boiling in plaice water or baking in the oven. Probably the best way to boil the egg plant is to peel it and cut into small pieces, cooking in just enough water to cover it. It may then be served with butter and cream. If it is cut in two it can be baked more easily in the oven than if it is left whole, and the edible part may be taken out afterwards with a spoon in the same manner as Hubbard Squash. One of the most indigestible dishes served on the modern table is fried egg plant, which is literally soaked with grease, and is really rendered entirely unfit for food. I take this special opportunity of condemning this method of preparing the egg plant, as it is practically the only way in which it is ever served. SMALL DEETS, SMALL CARROTS, SMALL PARSNIPS, SMALL TURNIPS, may be used as non-starchy vegetables if they are very small and tender, and may be prepared in a variety of ways. No matter how they are cooked, the peel should never be removed. They should not even be scraped, but should only be washed with a vegetable brush, after which they should be boiled whole in plain water and served in that manner, or cut in small pieces and boiled in just enough water to permit their being mashed afterwards. World Speed Marks To Go Sunday (Continued from Page One) Ian throttle pusher is expected to be able to hold his own with the best of them. Antoine Mourre, French speed demon also entered. Ralph DePalma, Italian racing idol, will return to big-league competition after a year's absence and will pilot a supercharged Miller Special. Peter DePaola, DePalma's nephew, will drive a super-charged Dusenberg. Tommy Milton, who holds the averaged 118.17 miles an hour in present 250-mile record, having the recent race at Charlotte, will head the American contingent that will resist the foreign invasion. He will be aided by such great speed artists as Earl Cooper, Eddie Hearne, Harry Hartz, Bennett Hill, Cliff Duantt, Jerry Wonderlich, Phil Shafer, Fred Comer, Bob McDonagh and Wade Morton. Durant will drive a front wheel powered car, the first of its kind ever to be used on a board track. The machine was built by Harry Miller, racing car wizard, and Durant paid $20,000 for it. The race is to be started at 2 p.m. by Fred Wagner, veteran racing official, Richard Kennerdal, chairman of the content board of the American Automobile Ass'n, will referee the classie. The race will be electrically timed and all the world records are expected to fall. On Thursday Bordino did a lap on the new track in 34½ miles which is 131.6 miles an hour. DINNER STORIES The boy hurried home to his father with an announcement: "Me and Joe Peck had a fight today." The father nodded gravely. "Mr. Peck had already called to see me about it." The little boy's face brightened. "Gee, non! I hope you made out" COMMENTS OF THE PRESS What Editors Are Saying TRAGEDIES OF INDUSTRY—Santa Barbara News "Seven thousand four hundred twenty-eight accidents to young workers under 21 years of age occurred in three states, according to a study just completed by the Children's Bureau of the United States Department of Labor. Thirty-eight of these accidents resulted in death and 920 in partial disablement for life. Wisconsin, Massachusetts and New Jersey were the states included in the study. The cases of industrial accidents to minors were secured from the files of state industrial commissions and accident boards and were only those in which compensation has been paid: that is, in Wisconsin, accidents causing disability of more than seven days duration; in Massachusetts and New Jersey, accidents causing disability of more than 10 days duration." The above report, taken from a Bureau of the United States Department of Labor gives some idea of the tremendous toll industry is taking of the youth of the Nation. These figures represent only three states in all of which there are fairly effective laws for the protection of the workers from industrial accidents. What a similar survey of the entire country would show can only be a matter of conjecture. It is certain that it would show an alarming total. The survey of the Children's Bureau contains internal evidence that the number of accidents is greatly reduced in cases where exceptional precautions are taken. This means that the extension of preventative measures would cut down the list of injuries among the workers. In the present survey, it was found that the percentage of accidents among workers under 16 was very low as a result of the restrictions on the employment of young workers in certain positions. In spite of these facts which were generally well known before this survey was made, all attempts to extend the system of protection to workers in the past met with strong opposition. But the popular demand for protective laws has overcome all opposition. Even the manufacturers and others who opposed industrial safeguards have come to a realization that such laws are good for them, as they reduce that bugbear of the world of industry, the turnover of employees.

"Mr. Peck had already called to see me about it." The little boy's face brightened. "Gee, pop! I hope you made out 'well's I did'" It was after dinner and the talk had turned to psychology. This disturbing question had just been put "When does old age really begin" To establish a formula was proving rather difficult, when one lady, who did not look her years, found the following "To me, old age is always 15 years older than I am." Uncle Silas had been entertaining a city relative, who desired to do a few chores on the farm by way of exercise. "First time you ever milked a cow, eh?" asked uncle one morning. "Well, you do it 100 per cent better than most city fellows do." "It seems to come natural, somehow," explained the city youth. "I have had a good deal of practice with a fountain pen." A schoolmaster had been giving his class a lesson in physical geography, and had explained that the world is made up of land and water. Then, in order to see if they had been paying attention, he asked—"Now, boys, can you tell me what it is land and water make?" Presently a little boy put up his hand and replied—"Mud, sir!"

Nelson BUENA PARK Phone Anaheim 762J-3 Fullerton Phone 173R1 HISTORY, THE ROOT OF ALL SCIENCE History, as it lies at the root of all science, is also, Thomas Carlyle believed the first distinct product of man's spiritual nature; his earliest expression of what can be called Thought. It is a looking both before and after, he observed; "as indeed, the coming Time already waits, unseen, yet definitely shaped, predetermined and inevitable, in the Time to come; and only by the combination of both is the meaning of either completed." Some nations have prophecy; some have not; but of all mankind, there is no tribe so rude that it has not attempted History, though several have not arithmetic enough to count give. In an essay on history, Carlyle, whose story of the French Revolution is one of the greatest of written histories, remarked that "History has been written with quipo-threads, with feather pictures, with wampum belts; still oftener with earth mounds and monumental stonecheaps, whether pyramid or cairn; for the Celt and the Copt, the Red man as well as the white, lives between two eternities, and warring against oblivion, he would fail unto himself in clear conscious relation as in dim unconscious relation he is already united with the whole Future and the whole Past." A talent for history may be said to be born with us, as our chief inheritance, Carlyle believed. "In a sense all men are historians. Is not every memory written quite full of annals, wherein joy and mourning, conquest and loss manifoldly alternated—and, with or without philosophy the whole fortunes of one little inward kingdom, and all its politics, foreign and domestic, standing ineffaceably recorded? "Our every speech is curiously historical. Most men, you may observe, speak only to narrate; not in imparting what they have thought, which indeed were often a very small matter, but in exhibiting what they have undergone or seen which is a quite unlimited one, do talkers (dilate). Cut us off from narrative, how would the stream of conversation, even among the wisest, languish into detached handfuls, and among the foolish utterly evaporate! Thus, as we do nothing but enact History, we say little but recite it; nay rather, in that widest sense, our whole spiritual life is built thereon. For, strictly considered, what is all Knowledge, too but recorded Experience and a product of History; of which, therefore, Reasoning and Belief, no less than Action and Passion, are essential materials?" There is something servile in the habit of seeking after a law which we may obey. We may study the laws of matter and for our convenience, but a successful life knows no law. "It is an unfortunate discovery certainly, that of a law which binds us where we did not know before that we were bound. Live free, child of the mist—and with respect to knowledge we are all children of the mist. The man who takes the liberty to live is superior to all laws, by virtue of his relation to the law maker."
