HESTER Editor and Publisher Subscription Rate—In Orange County per month 50c Entered at the Postoffice at Anaheim, Calif., as second class matter DAILY GREETING TO OUR READERS Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but ice will remember the name of the Lord our God. Psalm 20.7. The bird which seeks its branch, the bee which seeks its flower, the river which seeks its sea—but fly, but run, to their repose. So flies my soul, O God! so wanders my intelligence, till it finds its branch, its flower, its outlet. And all these it finds in Heaven, where signs an order infinitely perfect—Eugenie de Guerin. PREVENTING CRIME The activities of an entire state were required to quell an epidemic among domestic animals, but we are not so efficiently organized in matters that concern human welfare. James E. West, of New York, chief executive of the Boy Scouts, says the remedy for conditions such as those which exist now is not through more laws or larger police resources, but through strengthening the agencies that develop the moral fibre and character of individuals. When will we learn that prevention is cheaper than cure? How much less it costs to give boys the help of such agencies as the Scouts and the Y.M.C.A. than to hunt them for crime, prosecute them in the courts and then care for them in institutions. And how much richer is the world in manhood and human happiness when we prevent rather than punish. Agencies that are organized to help and train the young for useful lives are handicapped because less than half the good they do is apparent. They may point you to some good and great man and tell you that in his youth he had Scout training or enjoyed the benefits of the Y.M.C.A. But they cannot give the other side. They cannot show you what this man or some other man might have been without such training. A man who has the ambition and the energy to become a How much less it costs to give boys the help of such agencies as the Scouts and the Y.M.C.A. than to hunt them for crime, prosecute them in the courts and then care for them in institutions. And how much richer is the world in manhood and human happiness when we prevent rather than punish.

They may point you to some good and great man and tell you that in his youth he had Scout training or enjoyed the benefits of the Y.M.C.A. But they cannot give the other side. They cannot show you what this man or some other man might have been without such training. Any man who has the ambition and the energy to become a good and useful citizen might have used his talents criminally if his training had not led him into useful pursuits. The old saying that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure was never more true than when applied to crime. When you feel impelled to ask what these organizations have accomplished, remember that one important feature of their work is prevention, and that no one but God himself knows how many boys have been kept from the brand path that leads to destruction through these agencies. Beware, Little Dollar! The tax collector will get you if you don't watch out! CONFIDENCE, NOT FEAR, RULES THE PEOPLE One of the most beneficial processes relating to the attitude of the mind of the masses of the people toward economic conditions is to banish fear thoughts and implant confidence and cheerful expectancy. Let the people be serene and hopeful psychologic status. There is no discounting the material obi psychologic status. There is no discounting the material value of confidence and optimism among the people. Banishing of fear thoughts leaves fertile mental soil—so to speak—in which to germinate the seeds of confidence from which prosperity comes to fruity. There are many conditions and influences contributing toward mental equanimity as to economic affairs. The people, for one thing, and intelligent and well-informed, they know their general condition on this country and throughout the world are favorable. We know that nothing is to be feared from political agitation or from adverse governmental action at Washington. Furthermore, there are strong influences constantly at work upon the minds and hearts of the people to draw them out of the bogs of fear and apprehension. This means that there is greater tranquility of mind over material affairs and a minimum of that disturbing giving way to fear thoughts.

The roof in particular must be strong and sound, for it is the first to feel the burden of wind and rain. A good roof must also offer protection against fire.

TH' WAGES IS A DOLLAR AND A QUARTER A WEEK! ALL RIGHT MR. WORTHUM WHEN CAN I START? PARAGRAPHS (By Robert Quillen) Sufficient description: A three-story town. The burning issue in many households is an old flame. In the spring an old man's fancy fondly turns to thoughts of golf. A politician's idea of a good citizen is one who isn't too darned inquisitive. How fresh the spring landscape looks with new paint on the billboards. Still, you can't expect the same people to enjoy Freud and wind-sold stickers. We wish Messrs. Doyle and Lodge would find out whether there is any golf Over There. Mr. Coolidge is understood by the farmers. Most of them use mechanical horses now. Most people could reduce by living in what their services to the world are worth. The new dollar bill seems all right until you try to buy a dollar's worth with it. Americanism: Worshing hard to get a raise; moving into a better neighborhood to spend it. It's a funny world in which people are proud of ancestors and hate to take care of the old folks. We shall not expect the millennium until there is a conference for the limitation of taxes. Still, a grapefruit never attacks you except in self-defense. Praise is deserved anyway. It takes a clever father to think up those bright savings of his child's. If all of the white-collar workers were placed and to end they could at least make ends meet. ABE MARTIN WHOS WHO IN THE DAYS NEWS CAMILLO CASTIGLIONE The spectacular crash of Camillo Castiglione has made him the most notable figure of the hour in Europe. Castiglione—"Camillo the Magnificent," "the Hyena of the Inflation," "the Ponzi of Austria"—drew nicknames by the mere fact of his spectacular rise to wealth and power. It was a tremendous rise, limitless, it seemed, until it tried to push through J. P. Morgan & Co. The war found Castiglione, son of a Trieste rabbit, a clerk in a rubber factory. He leaped into every profiteering scheme he could and when the war ended he had money. Ruthlessly he played the currency of his country for a fall. He won and elected to become an Italian citizen. Trieste having been transferred to Italy, and he became a friend of Mussolini. Meanwhile he was helping to ride the German mark down hill and he came out of that with an extra fine and more prestige. He was the partner of Staines, the patron of Max Reinhardt and other artists, the husband of one of Vienna's most popular actresses. Then the stars, in which he believed with barbaric superstition, turned against him. It had been easy and profitable to ruin German and Austria currency. Why could not the same thing be done in France? He started it last spring and succeeded in creating a panic in Paris. He had help from his fellow speculators, of course, and the frane began to fail.

Yet some women are important enough to get in the rotogravure section without the help of a bathing suit.

COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying CALIFORNIA SEEKS A HEARING—Christian Science Monitor With characteristic energy, California has undertaken to correct false impressions which a large number of its residents, particularly those in the southern part of the State, feel have been given to other portions of the United States by careless press reports. Depending on a large extent upon favorable publicity for the tourist trade, which they have come to look upon as necessary to prosperity, those inclined toward "boosting" have been moved to slow with unsignified alarm the exaggeration entering into stories printed in that indefinite territory outside California referred to as "back east," concerning devastating plagues, water and power shortages, increased taxes, frosts and similar untoward situations calculated to deter tourists from visiting the southern Pacific coast. In this work of refutation one Los Angeles newspaper has offered prizes amounting to several thousand dollars for the best letters sent to editors of "home town" papers which secure publication, and a group of prominent business men are understood to have begun the raising of $1,000,000 to be used in advertising southern California throughout the country during the current year. Nor is there any lack of material with which California may confound its critics. Its growth has been astounding, yet sure, along many lines of commercial, industrial and civic endeavor. Its enthusiastic citizens have at their fingertips statistics of undoubted authenticity calculated to silence its claims of its detractors. California should have little trouble in undoing whatever harm has been wrought by exaggerated and perverted news stories. Indeed, time and truth will correct these errors without concerned effort. There are, however, a number of lessons which California may well learn from this experience, if it is not to be repeated in the future. One is that of modesty. If a little less had been claimed for California in the past, if odious comparisons had not sought to elevate California by maligning other portions of the United States, the opportunity of slandering that State would not have been seized upon so gleefully by outside editors. Another is clean journalism. The largest papers in Southern California often give the visitor an impression that the only happenings of real importance in that region are the proposed construction of "limit height", buildings, and the commission of crime. Such stories, coming to the deeds of the average "eastern" editor, cannot help but influence him toward crediting other reports reaching him through legitimate news channels which also exaggerate greatly unfortunate occurrences in California. Not all the stories so objectionable to Californians can be fully refuted. The hysteria fostered by health officials during the so-called epitotic of hoof and mouth disease last April needed no exaggeration to paint a shametal picture. But the water shortage never existed as such in Southern California, and the curtailment of production of hydro-electric energy caused by a shortage of rainfall in the central portion of the State had little effect upon the cities of the south, except to cause economy in electric display signs and street lighting. Southern California must also learn that it has itself exaggerated the importance of the tourist. Its prosperity runs upon cold basis of agriculture, of which the citrus fruit industry is Not all the stories so objectionable to Californians can be fully refuted. The hysteria fostered by health officials during the so-called epizootic of hoof and mouth disease last April needed no exaggeration to paint a shameful picture. But the water shortage never existed as much in Southern California, and the curvilinear production of hydro-electric energy caused by a shortage of rainfall in the central portion of the State had little effect upon the cities of the south, except to cause economy in electric display signs and street lighting. Southern California must also learn that it has itself exaggerated the importance of the tourist. Its prosperity runs upon the solid basis of agriculture, of which the citrus fruit industry is the chief support. Its excellent climate may always be counted upon to attract the visitor, but no gliding of the lily or nature's bounty is necessary to bring this desirable result. And California must learn to realize that it is not so much either a summer or winter resort as it is place where people can live in climatic comfort the entire year round. It is customary to say that aristocracies are of three kinds: of birth and rank; of wealth; and of intellect. The last is, of course, the most distinguished of the three. Every one of these aristocracies is surrounded by a host of envious persons. If you belong to one of them, they will be embittered against you; and unless they are restrained by fear, they will always be anxious to let you know that you are no better than they. It is by their anxiety to let you know this, that they betray how greatly they are conscious that the opposite is the truth. Day School and Night School all the Year Enter Any Time.
