DAILY GREETING TO OUR READERS She openeth her mouth with wisdom; and in her tongue is the law of kindness.—Proverbs 31.26. Not all the good done in the world is done intentionally and knowingly. There are no sweeter or higher influences than those which flow out unconsciously from good lives. A really good life is one to which truth and kindness and nobility have become habitual.—Anonymous. SOUTHERN BRANCH SITE Although there has been no announcement that a site has been selected for the Southern Branch of the University of California, newspapers throughout the south have for several days been taking it for granted, editorially, that the Palos Verdes location has been chosen by the committee, without the formality of looking over the sites offered. And of course every community that has offered a site for the university is aggrieved. It would seem that these papers are a little premature in airing their dissatisfaction, since the committee has not yet made a report.On Wednesday they visited the Burbank location and expressed delight that such a tract is available. The San Bernardino Sun complains that "The committee selected to recommend a site to the board of regents has already selected the Palos Verdes site and the selection was made without even viewing other locations proposed." And the Santa Ana Register says, "None can fail to resent the attitude that has been assumed by the Southern Branch Committee. The committee, according to the best information obtainable, has settled upon a site for the proposed Southern Branch of the University of California, without giving the sites any consideration." The Register goes on to say that made a report.On Wednesday they visited the Burbank location and expressed delight that such a tract is available.

The Register goes on to say that the committee evidently wants the university located within the shadow of Broadway, hence the Palos Verdes site. But if this charge were true and the city of Los Angeles wished to dictate the location, Burbank would certainly be chosen as most convenient to "Broadway." Riverside is the most aggrieved of all. If the university goes to some other location than the one offered near that city the citrus experiment station owned by the University of California and located at Riverside, will go with the University. Riverside loses what she already has. It may be that these editors have inside information as to what the committee proposes to do, but it would seem the part of wisdom for each community to use its efforts in presenting its site in a favorable way to the committee until the final report is made.

ABE MARTIN POEMS THAT LIVE THE DIFFERENCE I had a hundred little loves; Of each I made a song. A morning croon, a lilt at noon. A carol all day long. I sang them in the market-place, For every careless ear; I hummed them under balconies For lovesick maids to hear. But now I have a love more great Than any other thing. And yet my lute is strangely mute; I do not want to sing. I draw away from company, And, silent, sit apart I must not lift my voice, to drown The singing in my heart. —Anon.

HEALTH & DIET ADVICE By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" SUGAR (Continued) Almost any kind of sugar may be used in place of starch if the rules for starches are followed. However, most people would not be satisfied with a meal of this kind, yet there are some agreeable ways in which the better sugars may be taken. The sugar fruits may be used in place of starch or may be eaten in addition to a proteid meal. If one is very fond of stewed prunes, figs, raisins or any of these sugar fruits, a pleasant change may be made from the ordinary starchy meal by substituting any of these fruits for the starch. As the nourishment contained in the stewed fruits is so concentrated, it is advisable to always use a certain amount of non-starchy or salad vegetables at the same time. Another way in which they may be combined is with sweet milk or buttermilk. If honey or maple sugar is used it should be taken as previously suggested in connection with the making of lemonade, or can be used in flavoring toast or waffles which are deadrinized. These sugars should not be used with bread or snuffins, although those with strong digestive ability will find they are able to eat stewed fruits that are rich in sugar with muffins or mush made from whole wheat flour. This is a matter that must be tried out in each individual case. Less fermentation takes place with whole-wheat flour because they seem to pass through the alimentary canal more quickly. Starches pass through very sluggishly and ferment more readily. CANDY is not the best kind of sugar to use; not having the same wholesomeness as the sugar fruits as the vitabrates are destroyed in the sugar used for candy, but which are retained in the fruit. If candy is taken at all, use instead o, starchy food with sufficient non-starchy or salad vegetables taken with it, or use a small amount at the end of a proteid meal, but I do not recommend it. If children are given sugar fruits instead of candy, they will generally be more satisfied. Mortgage Guarantee Co. 626 So.

COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying ROD-SPARING AND CHILD-SPOILING—San Bernardino Sun For lo, these many years the discipline of the woodshed has been held to be at least coequal with the training of the school to "bring up a child in the way he should go", but in this age there is a strong move on the part of sociologists to spare the rod without spoiling the child. It is declared that physical punishment drives children to destruction. Says a lecturer on the subject: "The parent should respect the growing personality and help him to attain a fuller life or make him realize his duties to himself and so society." That there has been altogether too much beating of children by ignorant, passionate, inconsiderate parents, is a sad fact, and much that is evil in the shaping of character has resulted. Such parents hold that Solomon said, "Spare the rod and spoll the child". They have mighty little respect for anything else Solomon is supposed to have said, but since this gives warrant for venting their temper they quote it fervently. Yet, if they read, something such parents seldom do in real books—they must know that it was an English poet, not the Jewish wise men, who framed those fateful words. Solomon indeed advised correction of children, but not necessarily, or at all, by mercelless beatings. Among other things he said: "The rod and reproof give wisdom; but a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame." The trouble with those who would entirely abolish the rod is that as a people we are not yet ready to substitute that other sort of admonition, loving guidance and discipline founded upon personality, which must take its place. How many parents are capable of, or even try, to "help him to attain a fuller life or make him realize his duties to himself and so society." Few indeed. Still fewer are capable of correcting a small child and teaching it the blessings of discipline without any sort of physical punishment. Happy would we be if parents were able to govern and mould fine character and incinuate habits of obedience, discipline and regard for the rights of others without use of the rod at any time, but alas, that is not possible in our present stage of parental government. The result is exactly what Solomon said, that in our present tendency to withhold the rod without substituting something better in the way of reproof, we are witnessing the truth of his saying, that "a child left to himself bringeth his mother to shame." GLEANINGS FROM THE BOOK OF LIFE SPEAKING HIS MIND Thomas Huxley, thinking seriously about what life had to offer that was worth having, came to the conclusion that the chief good, for him, was freedom to learn, think, and say what he pleased. Here are some of the things he learned, thought about, and said when he pleased: There are three great products of our time... One of these SPEAKING HIS MIND Thomas Huxley, thinking seriously about what life had to offer that was worth having, came to the conclusion that the chief good, for him, was freedom to learn, think, and say what he pleased when he pleased. Here are some of the things he learned, thought about, and said when he pleased: There are three great products of our time... One of these is that doctrine concerning the constitution of matter which, for want of a better name, I will call "molecular"; the second is the doctrine of conservation of energy; the third is the doctrine of evolution. The doctrine that all men are, in any sense, or have been, at any time, free and equal, is an utterly baseless fiction. History warns us that it is the customary fate of how truths to begin as heresies and to end as superstitions. Next to being right in this world, the best of all things is to be clearly and definitely wrong, because you will come out somewhere. There are men who are counted great because they represent the actuality of their own age, and mirror it as it is. Such a one is Voltaire, of whom it was epigrammatically said, "he expressed everybody's thoughts better than anybody." But there are other men who attain greatness because they embody the personality of their own day, and magically reflect the future. Such a one was Descartes. "Learn what is true, in order to do what is right," is the summing up of the whole duty of man, for all who are unable to satisfy their mental hunger with the east wind of authority. Time, whose tooth gnaws away everything else, is powerless against truth. The higher the state of civilization, the more completely do the actions of one member of the social body influence all the rest and the less possible it is for any one man to do a wrong thing without interfering, more or less, with the freedom of all his fellow-citizens.
