DAILY GREETING TO OUR READERS Hear, O Israel; the Lord our God is one Lord.—Deuteronomy 6:4. I have a pledge from Christ, have His note of hand, which is my support, my refuge, and haven; and though the world should rage, to this security I cling. How reads it? “Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world.” If Christ be with me, all the powers of earth to me are nothing more than a spider’s web.—Saint Chrysostom. BOYS COMMIT CRIMES, MORE THAN MEN It is boys and young men of tender years who commit eighty per cent of the crimes which darken the social life of this country. This ratio is startling. Four-fifths of all crime committed in this country is by boys and young men under twenty-five years old. Could there be any stronger plea than this for moral training? The moral pitfalls of this age are many. There is greater need than ever before to bolster young men and young women in their moral natures. If the morals of the young are not conserved, the race will go to decay. It will never do to leave the young to work out their own moral salvation without aid. They need the counsel of their elders. They need the moral safeguarding which is vital to them in adolescent years. The prevalence of vice and crime among the young cannot be forestalled and overcome by mere chance. The demoralizing perils which beset the youth of today must be fought and must be guarded against systematically. That many boys and young men are going to ruin is evidenced by the startling ratio of crimes committed by males under twenty-five years old. Four crimes out of every five need than ever before to bolster young men and young women in their moral natures. If the morals of the young are not conserved, the race will go to decay. It will never do to leave the young to work out their own moral salvation without aid. They need the counsel of their elders.

The demoralizing perils which beset the youth of today must be fought and must be guarded against systematically. That many boys and young men are going to ruin is evidenced by the startling ratio of crimes committed by males under twenty-five years old. Four crimes out of every five committed by youths! This is proof positive of lamentable lack of moral ballast among boys and young men, in great numbers. Teach the children to love and protect trees. Teach them of the beauty and the value of trees. Stir them to enthusiasm for the planting and protection of trees. MISSIONS OF MERCY BY AIRPLANES The diphtheria epidemic in Nome, Alaska, has developed a situation which commands the sympathy of the civilized world. Shut off from easy communication with the outside world by the rigorous Alaskan winter, Nome's appeal for antitoxin reached the hearts of men everywhere. Then came the gallant rush of driver and dogs to carry the first supply. Other dog teams are to be sent in. Furthermore, airplanes are to be used in conveying medical supplies to the stricken city. The world flight by American army aviators demonstrated that airplanes can successfully brave the rigors of Arctic climate. This relief flight will afford additional demonstration. French aviators have negotiated long distances across the Desert of Sahara. Thus the inhospitable cold and the inhos pitable desert are shown to be capable of mastery by man in his wonder machines—the airplanes. Developments of air transportation add another to the long list of means of mercy, even for the most isolated spots on the face of the earth. Airplanes in future will figure prominently in relief expeditions and in rescue of the imperiled on land and sea. There is ample time yet for California to have an abundant fall of rain.

TO MARCH PATENTED 1789 "Japan More Interested in Industrialization Than Emigration" Japan is not so interested in emigration as in industrialization. Hirosi Sako, Japanese constable general, insisted in a recent ad dress in New York. Discussing relations between Japan and the United States, Salto expressed belief that majority opinion had both countries had a desire for peace in the Pacific despite efforts of jingoists on both sides. Japan, he said, felt peace jointly maintained was essential to his national existence and prosperity. He said he hoped for some "getture of good will" from the United States to amend the ill-following upon the "deplorable immigration law incident of last year." Japanese statesmanship, he continued, in alleviating the pressing density of the home population which grew 600,000 annually, would find the country's ultimate salvation in "her industrialization," not by any means of emigration." Because Japan lacked coal; iron and oil and other major raw materials and scarce, the only compensation for which appeared in development of hydro-electric power, he said she depended heavily upon foreign trade. America played the greatest part in this foreign trade in comparison with other countries, according to the consul general. Its imports of 80 per cent of Japan's silk output constituted about per cent of Japan's total exports. Reciprocally, he said, Japan bought here $65,000,000 of raw cotton every year, which supplied 32 per cent of the material required by Japan's most active branch, its textile industry, and an additional $125,000,000 machinery and other products. Third in Foreign Trade Japan is third in the foreign trade of the United States. GRAPHS BERT QUILLEN ABE MARTIN FAIRY AUTO THEATER NOW! NOW! NOW!

Third in Foreign Trade. Japan is third in the foreign trade of the United States, commerce with this country amounting to "more than one third of your total Pacific area being little less than your entire South American trade," he said. Though Japan was consequently less interested in emigration and was not desirous of sending emigrants to countries where they were not acceptable," Salito said, nevertheless Japanese clusion had come as a tremendous psychological shock," and was considered an "uncalled blow to Japanese honor." "We are a proud race," Salito. "In the old days our mural, when he borrowed money wrote in his promissory note: I fail to return this money please laugh at me before people." And this sentence was accepted by his creditors as the best of securities." "Drastic legislation" here, said, had caused Japanese to fear that they had been laughed at before all the peoples of the world," and by their hitherto best friends, whose ideals long been generally admired.

"Mary," she said "don't you know that he is a married man?" "Yes'm," replied Mary, "I knows it But'm—he's dissatisfied." He had advertised for a wife. Among the hundreds of answers one alone interested him. The girl was the embodiment of all the domestic virtues and was considered beautiful by both sexes. The Nordic advertiser maligned his chosen applicant carfare to come the long distance to his town. With the check he enclosed a love letter throbbing with the endlessness of his devotion. That night he re-read her letter. Her qualifications fulfilled his every wish. His anticipations were high. Then he noticed a little line on the next page. It said: P.S.—As for my religion, I am a faithful member of the Baptist Colored Church. HEALTH & DIET ADVICE By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" GOOD PROTEID FOOD (Continued) SALISBURY STEAK is made by grinding beef meat through a meat grinder, using only the red, lean part of round steak, from which all gristle and fat have been removed. This may seem similar to Hamburger steak, but it is really more palatable and more easily digestible, and has, in addition, an entirely different flavor than when the fat is left in. There is usually about a quarter of a pound of waste to each half pound of lean meat, so that it is advisable to purchase three quarters of a pound of steak for each person to be served. After the meat has been put through the grinder, this finely ground meat is pressed flat into some kind of a pan like a cake tin. No grease should be added or rubbed on the pan, but the pan should be entirely dry. The ground meat in the pan may be up to one inch in thickness, and it should be placed in a hot oven and the fire then turned down. The meat will cook through quite well in about five minutes, and will be cooked sufficiently in two or three minutes if rare meat is desired. After cooking, it may be cut into small pieces for serving, or cooked in different patty shapes similar to the way Hamburger is usually prepared. A taste addition may be made by grinding spinach or parsley up with meat, which imparts a slightly different flavor. This is an excellent way to prepare round steak, which is probably the most wholesome cut of beef it is possible to obtain, and which has the added advantage of being the cheapest in price.

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 12, 1925 COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying SHOULD BE FOR DISARMAMENT—San Bernardino Sun Recently, in an editorial calling attention to the tremendous world loss in the late war in lives, money and destroyed property, a San Francisco paper expressed wonder why the nations do not turn from war to peace more than they appear to be doing. Then it gives the reason without realizing that it does so, when it says, "But among the things removed by the war was the fantastic optimism which argued that the weakness of a nation in naval and military strength would engender imitation and other nations would withhold their hands." This probably refers to Belgium, but Germany's invasion of Belgium was not hostile to a weak nation, but what she considered a necessary step in her clash with a powerful nation. Then it goes on to say: "It is fair for us to assume in our dealings with foreign nations, that no other nation wants another war any more than we do. Nations are slowest to attack when their chances of winning are obviously the least. In up-to-the-minute preparedness is our only assurance against payment; in the future, of another bill of costs still heavier, than above." It is fair to assume that, if other nations do not want war any more than we do, and that if we would not attack them, then they would not attack us. This should supply a splendid foundation for an agreement to abolish armaments that could be considered large enough for offense. The trouble with us is that we assume a self-righteousness we do not possess and which other nations do not credit us with. If we are to have up-to-the-minute preparedness for war because we fear the war preparation of other nations would lead them to attack us, then we are bound to look upon like preparedness by other nations as purely defensive, and that they mistrust us as much as we do them and are equally justified in arming themselves for defense against us. It is rank self-righteousness for us to assume that it is safe for the world for us to be heavily armed, but not safe for other nations to be like armed. We may deceive ourselves, but we cannot deceive them. An armed nation is an armed nation. Our righteousness ought rather to take the form of an invitation to the other nations to hold with us to a real honest-to-goodness disarmament conference, and then go into the conference ready to make it one. GLEANINGS FROM THE BOOK OF LIFE TO SEEKERS AFTER TRUTH "Know the truth, and it shall set you free," is, after all, an idle saying. How is one to know the truth? The search after truth is like the search after perpetual motion or the attempt to square the circle. Samuel Butler held that all we should aim at is the most GLEANINGS FROM THE BOOK OF LIFE TO SEEKERS AFTER TRUTH "Know the truth, and it shall set you free," is, after all, an idle saying. How is one to know the truth? The search after truth is like the search after perpetual motion or the attempt to square the circle. Samuel Butler held that all we should aim at is the most convenient way of looking at a thing—the way that most sensible people are likely to find to give them the least trouble for some time to come. It is not true that the sun used to go round the earth until Copernicus' time, but it is true that until Copernicus' times it was most convenient to us to hold this. If truth is not trouble saving in the long run it is not truth, Samuel Butler contended. He held that truth is only that which is most largely and permanently trouble saving. The ultimate triumph, therefore, of truth rests on a very tangible basis—much more so that when it is made to depend upon the will of an unseen and unknowable agency.
