If thou seek rest in this life, how wilt thou then attain to the everlasting rest. Dispose not thyself for much rest, but for great patience. Seek true peace, not in earth, but in Heaven; not in men, nor in any other creature, but in God alone.—Thomas a'Kempis. NEWSPAPER READING ESSENTIAL There is no culture or education worth the name that does not include a knowledge and an interest in present-day events. History from the beginning of the human race up to the present time is interesting, even fascinating, and should be read to give one a foundation and a background for the study of current happenings. But we should not stop with the dusty tomes of yesterday. The newspaper, which contains the history of today, should not be neglected if we are to round out our learning and culture and our training for citizenship. The late Senator Lodge, noted for his erudition as well as his statesmanship, was often very uncomplimentary to newspaper writers and newspaper English. He said that most of our great journals are filled with a strange jargon found nowhere else, spoken by no one and never used in daily life; "compounded in about equal parts of turgid fine writing, vulgar jauntiness and indiscriminate slang." But Senator Lodge made allowance for the men who "write for the day that is passing over them" and says it would be absurd as well as unjust to expect them to write like Sterne or Hawthorne. But if newspapers are hurriedly written they are also hurriedly read, which is perfectly understandable in this age, when so many things make demands upon our attention. If Senator Lodge was harsh in criticism of newspaper English he had a very clear perception of the value of the newspaper as a means of disseminating knowledge. We cannot ignore the facts presented in the daily newspaper if we wish to appear where else, spoken by no one and never used in daily life; "compounded in about equal parts of turgid fine writing, vulgar jauntiness and indiscriminate slang."

We cannot ignore the facts presented in the daily newspaper if we wish to appear to be well-informed. Twelve hundred and twenty-five deaths in automobile accidents in California in eleven months—too many, far too many! WAR HORROR AUGURIES DECRIED Curtis D. Wilbur, Secretary of the Navy, decries the publication of grim prophecies of wholesale destruction of entire populations by poison gas, disease germs and other horrible agencies in the "next war." Secretary Wilbur believes that these auguries are grossly exaggerated and without warrant. He does not believe that there will be another world war. Quoting his own words: "My own judgment is that the next war will be like most of the wars in history, sporadic and local and involving comparatively few people, and will be relatively quickly over." The judgment of mankind, in Secretary Wilburs opinion, "will oppose any war which has for its purpose the extermination or annihilation of nations or peoples." It is not good to dwell upon the horrors of the "next war." That creates a state of mind which takes for granted that there must needs be another great war. It is better to cultivate a frame of mind which assumes that there need not be another world war; that there must not be another one; that peace must be kept foremost in the minds of civilized men and women. Constructive peace thoughts and purposes should occupy the minds and hearts of the American people rather than grim imaginings and broodings as to the prospective horrors of the "next war." By thinking and working for peace the "next war" may never be at all. Do not overload tomorrow with today's neglected duties. Say it with flowers of language—when you write about California to persons residing outside the state. Perhaps the best thing that can be said or thought of this session of Congress is, that it will end soon. Let there be no talk of state division, but of state unification.

Avoid Imitations — Substitutes HEALTH & DIET ADVICE By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" PROTEID FOOD (Continued) The following tables have been arranged in a manner which will possibly be more easily understood than others to which you have been accustomed, yet I believe their simplicity will really help you to a fuller understanding of the value of the different proteids: GOOD—Lean beef, mutton, chicken, rabbit, turkey, sole, halibut, seabass, pickerel, fresh cod, tont cod, perch, black bass, tuna, eggsa cottage cheese, cream cheese, gelatin, frog's legs, turtle. NOT SO GOOD—Dried beef, pork, fresh tongue, veal, lamb, wild fowl, wild game, salt cod fish, salmon, lobster, clams, shrimp, oysters, crayfish, nuts, Roquefort cheese, cat fish, mackerel, crab domestic duck, domestic goose. NOT GOOD—Heart kidney, liver, lungs, smoked tongue, spiced meats, sausage, hot dog, bologna, brains, corned beef, pickled longue, sweetbreads, pickled feet Limburger cheese, canned fish, smoked fish, salt mackerel, hamburger steak. GOOD PROTEID FOOD BEEF—Lean beef meat is probably the best proteid food for all purposes, and if not used in excess, is the most valuable food we have in our dietary. The average adult person can safely use an average of about a half pound of lean beef daily, and in such cases as where there is a large amount of brain work done, with a consequent expenditure of nerve force, even more than this quantity can be taken without harm. (To be continued.) BREA NEWS WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 11, 1925 COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying SCANDAL IS NOT NEWS—(Fresno Republican) A number of newspapers of the state have become hysterical over an obscure San Francisco girl, whose life is revealed as a career of immorality and who has apparently terminated this career by murdering her mother. The crime she has committed is an awful one, but is that the reason these newspapers are devoting columns and columns to her escapades? Not for a minute. The only reason she has become the subject for sob sisters and others who have written about her is the fact that her life has been immoral. These newspapers are not satisfied with telling the simple story of her life. They must go into the sordid details. They leave nothing out. Is it any wonder, then, that some newspapers are barred from respectable homes? A good act is, in the minds of these newspapers, worth about a stick. An immoral act is worth all that the imagination of lurid writers can picture. A defense is set up. It is that all this rottenness must be told in every detail because it carries a moral. Is it necessary to go into these details to preach the doctrine that the wages of sin is death? It is not. The defense is a smokescreen to hide the fact that some editors believe the only way to get circulation for a newspaper is to seize upon scandal and flaunt it in the faces of the people. It is gratifying to note, however, that this class of newspapers is growing smaller and smaller. There is an increasing demand for less scandal and more constructive news. GLEANINGS FROM THE BOOK OF LIFE ALL KNOWLEDGE ISN'T POWER Those persons who endeavor to test their knowledge, and their intellect, by poring over the Edisonian questionnaires going round the press, are wasting their time. One of the newest of these questionnaires, published in a leading newspaper with the information that it was used to "test" college students, includes the following queries: Who owns a ranch of about 160,000 acres in California? About how many golf clubs are made annually in the United States? On what college football team of 1924 did Horrell play? From what word is "chaps" (worn by cowboys) derived? Who is Walter Hagen? From what University was Booth Tarkington graduated? What are the "White Muleteers of Pennsylvania?" Who is "Buffalo Jones?" How far is it from Cleveland to Pittsburgh? Why is the Venna de Milo so called? These are typical of the list, which is typical of such questionnaires. Of what importance are any of the questions? And do they represent a sample of what being taught in the colleges now? Knowledge is power—but it must be practical knowledge. Born to Mr. and Mrs. J. F. Reimon, on January 30th, an eight-pound son, Robert Adison is the name given to the young man. Mrs. B. M. Moore and daughters Misses Vera and Thelma of Downey were guests of the former's sister, Mrs. Robert W. Sammons on Friday. Miss Vera remained over the weekend with her aunt. Mrs. G. E. Russell, of 108 South Walnut-ave gave a number of readings before the Kiwanis club in Anaheim Tuesday. A family reunion was enjoyed Sunday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. DeFrance on South Walnut-st. There were sixteen present and an enjoyable time had. Misses Agnes Chancellor and Edith Spicer returned to the California Christian College to take up their school work after a very pleasant weeks' vacation. Mrs. A. Q. Crispen has recently returned home from a very plausant visit with Mrs. L. D. Fair and family in Whittier. Sunday dinner guests at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. S. Taylor on South Walnut-st, were the Misses Laura, Mariam and Frances Pollard, of Los Angeles, and G. Pollard of St. Claud, Wisconsin. Mrs. Anna McVeigh who has charge of the Brea Library says it is growing steadily larger. The circulation for January was over $900 books. Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Denham and children enjoyed a motor trip to San Bernardino Sunday to visit with friends. Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Stewart were visiting Mr. and Mrs. Robert Leifer and Mr. and Mrs. Peck, in Pasadena, Thursday. Mr. G. P. Henigan of the Woodruff Henigan Dry good store was in Los Angeles Wednesday on business. WASH DAY IS WHENEVER YOU NEED WASHING DONE Why should Monday be "the goat?" If you have laundering to be done on Wednesday, why put it off? With the housewife who does it at home, the reason is that she doesn't want Monday misery scattered over the week. One big, tragic, back-bending day of drudgery to start off the week with and then try to forget it until the calendar brings it around again. With us washday is the day you want your clothes laundered. Don't wait until Monday. In fact we may be able to give you quicker service Wednesday or Thursday, for then the rush due to the Monday mania is over. WM. GILMORE, ANAHEIM AGENT, Phone 20 The Sanitary Laundry 225 West A. W.
