Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.—Psalm 23.1, 6. PLANT FOREST TREES! Preservation and augmentation of American forests will receive much attention this year. Several states, individually, will formulate plans to prevent fires and to extend forested areas by reforestation. Conferences and movements national in scope will look to the wider phases of the forestry situation. The American people are to be educated in the paramount importance of protecting their wooded areas against ruthless denuding by greed or disastrous losses from preventable fires. Reforesting is to receive much attention. California should be in the very forefront of this. Replanting of cut over or burnt-over lands should be undertaken systematically in this state. California should lead the other states of the Union and should be exemplar to the world in planting forest trees. This Golden State has its golden opportunity in this. The great work should begin without delay. It should be done according to definite, practical plans. The forest experts of California are resourceful and talented to work out plans. This momentous stride for the conservation and perpetuation of a great resource should not lag. A life guided by lofty principles is a wholesome influence in the community. BOMB OUTRAGE CRIME OF WORST TYPE That was a crime of unspeakable horror by which Ernest M. Torchia, Glendale attorney, was wounded unto death by a bomb sent ostensibly as a Christmas gift, through the mails. Cruel, cowardly, inhuman, hideous, the perpetrator or perpetrators should be hunted down and given severe punishment. A life guided by lofty principles is a wholesome influence in the community. BOMB OUTRAGE CRIME OF WORST TYPE That was a crime of unspeakable horror by which Ernest M. Torchin, Glendale attorney, was wounded unto death by a bomb sent ostensibly as a Christmas gift, through the mails. Cruel, cowardly, inhuman, hideous, the perpetrator or perpetrators should be hunted down and given severe punishment. The United States government is co-operating with state, county and municipal authorities in searching for the author or authors of this foul offense against God and man. Murder is horrible enough at any time, committed in any circumstances. But this attempted slaying was especially heinous. It was potential murder of a whole family. For, the natural thing would have been the gathering of all members of a family to watch eagerly the opening of Christmas packages. When this bomb was opened Mr. Torchin's whole family might have suffered his fate. His daughter was near, but escaped serious injury. It is particularly difficult to deal with crime of cowardice. The craven hides his tracks. But there is a law of retribution which co-operates with man-made laws. The cowardly criminal usually is found, by some process. It is to be hoped that this may be the case in this Glendale outrage. If you seek a formula for a Happy New Year, do all possible this year to make others happy.

Another thing the lives of great men oft remind us of is that they don't seem so darned great. There are two kinds of parents: old ones, and those that expect attitude from their children.

COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying FRENCH BIRTHRATE DECLINES—Berkeley Gazette France's birthrate continues low, and nobody seems able to do anything about it. The excess of births over deaths last year was less than 95,000 or only about one-fourth of one per cent of the population. And it would have been still less, but for an abnormally low death rate. French leaders, therefore, are unusually concerned about the matter. But all their deliberations arrive nowhere. No statesman or scientist can explain just why the race fails to increase like its rivals, and there is certainly that the knowledge would do any good if they did know. With all due allowance made for whatever national "birth control" may be exercised deliberately in France, the ultimate cause is hard to find. Economists and sociologists explain, but their explanations are not convincing. Why one race multiplies, and another fails to multiply, why one waxes and another wanes, remains a mystery. Perhaps Nature or Providence regulates such matters with a wisdom more than that of fallible human beings. Perhaps Nature and Providence has ordained that the French race, long a leader in Europe, accomplishing great things and bestowing many gifts upon mankind, has accomplished its purpose and from now on must yield primacy of numbers and influence to other races. History suggests that races run their course, like individuals. When they have once entered upon a decline—of which ability... Don't kill your bore acquainteces.

HEALTH & DIET ADVICE By Dr. Frank McOoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" 22 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS QUESTION:—Mr. E.A.W. writes: What foods would you advise for a person to eat and what foods go together? I have been reading your HEALTH AND DIET ADVICE column. ANSWER:——Proteid foods, properly combined with nonstarchy and salad vegetables are extremely easy to digest. Watch this column for HEALTH MENUS. QUESTION:—Mrs. W.H.C. writes: I am fifty-eight, very stout and look healthy but am miserable. I have Lumbago, Constipation and suffer most terribly from a very bitter taste in my mouth, which makes me sick to my stomach. Please advise me what to do. ANSWER:—Would suggest that you try a low milk diet. Take one glassful of milk every two hours or one-half glassful every hour. Preceed this with one teaspoonful to one tablespoonal of lemon juice before taking the milk. For that bitter taste, try rinsing your mouth with baking soda and water as often as required. QUESTION:—Mr. E.F.P. writes: About eighteen months ago I had my tonsils removed and later developed lung trouble. The doctor insists that I use lots of eggs and milk, now, and that I must increase on the number of eggs each day. I am twenty years old. Do you recommend milk and eggs for my lung trouble? ANSWER:—I most decidedly do NOT recommend milk and eggs for your case, because they are both mucus-forming foods. An orange juice fast should be taken for about twelve days, combined with two warm shower or sponge baths daily and two warm water enemas, while fast. Lots of rest and good fresh air is necessary. Watch this column for article on TUBERCULOSIS. QUESTION:—A.M.H. writes: What is the food value of Pie Plant? Any information regarding this would be appreciate. ANSWER:Pie Plant is an acid vegetable, containing a large amount of oxalic acid; therefore should be avoided. WHO'S WHO IN THE DAYS NEWS JOSEPH W. McINTOSH The state of Illinois claims the man who now holds Uncle Sam's pince strings. He is Joseph M. McIntosh, recently named compilator of currency by president Cooke at the suggestion of Andrew Meison, secretary of the treasury. McIntosh succeeds Hern. McIntosh was born Dec. 23, 1873, at Macomb, Ill. His early connections were with the Farmers Bank at Beesit, Neb., later with the Citizens Bank at Macomb, Ill. From 1897 to 1906 he was connected with Arnour & Co., Chicago. Subsequently he became receiver, later vice-president and treasurer of the Western Stoneware Co. or Monmouth, Ill. During the World war McIntosh served with the rank of colonel as chief of assistance of the U.S. army. He served in France, Italy and the Balkans and was decorate with the Cross Merito di Guerra (Italian); Palonia Restituata (Pollish); Order of Merit (Serbia); War Cross (Czecho-Slovakian). Subsequent to the war McIntosh was appointed director of finance of the U.S. Emergency Fleet Corporation. Last spring he was named as deputy comptroller in charge of Agricultural Credit corporations.

THE ETERNAL QUESTION John Burroughs, facing the mystery, was certain there was nothing to light up the grave for him. "It is the primal, unending darkness," he decided. "The faith of all the saints and martyrs does not help me." From our youth up our associations with the dead and with the grave are oppressive. Our natural animal instincts get the better of us. Death seems the great catastrophe. As Burroughs put it: "The silver cord is loosened and the golden bowl is broken. The physical aspects of death are unloved and repellent. And the spiritual aspects—only the elect can see them. Our physical senses are so dominant, the visible world is so overpowering, that all else becomes as dreams and shadows." It may be that you have not heard of Howe. He points with pride and views with alarm in E. W. Howe's Monthly devoted to "Information and Indignation." It is the ultimate In personal journalism. He is the only contributor, and he doesn't want any more subscribers, because he loses money on subscriptions. He publishes it to have his say. In the current issue he observes, characteristically: The attention you give to your soul should be given your stomach. Try that plan awhile. George Bernard Shaw.Any or all of his plays. Man and Superman, Saint Joan, Androcles and the Lion, in particular. Allee in Wonderland, by Lewis Carroll. John Galsworthy's, The Forsyte Saga. Of human bondage, by W. Somerset Maugham. Arnold Bennett's Old Wives Tale. The list is in no sense complete. It will be noticed that no attention is paid to Twain, Poe, Flaubert, Huxley, Nitzsche, Herbert Spenceer, De Maupassant, Wilde, Boccaccio, Zola, Schopenhauer, Montaigne, Havelock Ellis, or a score of others who would have to be represented in any list of "best books." If the correspondent who inspired this list had asked for one book, I would write: La Rochefoucauld's Maxima.
