SPEEDING UP THE SENATE The new vice-president offended the dignity of the United States Senate, but won the approval of the people of the country when he condemned the custom of filibustering. Every senator has the right to acquaint himself with the measure he is to vote upon and he should have the privilege of presenting his views to his colleagues in an effort to change their views, if he can. But, when a majority of the Senate is in favor of a measure that is of import to the nation, it is both childish and criminal to employ methods by which, as the vice-president says, "one senator may exercise a power greater than the veto power of the president of the United States." Fairness alone should allow the majority to have its way. Senatorial courtesy grants the right to hold the floor as long as possible. If the filibustering senator should speak upon the subject under consideration there could not be so much objection to the method, but when senators take the floor for the purpose of defeating a measure favored by the majority and put in the time reading the Bible, newspapers and popular novels to empty the seats of the Senate chamber, then the procedure becomes ridiculous. Extra sessions of Congress have been necessary because VICE-PRESIDENT SAYS, "ONE SENATOR MAY EXERCISE A POWER GREATER THAT THE VETO POWER OF THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES." Fairness alone should allow the majority to have its way. Senatorial courtesy grants the right to hold the floor as long as possible. If the filibustering senator should speak upon the subject under consideration there could not be so much objection to the method, but when senators take the floor for the purpose of defeating a measure favored by the majority and put in the time reading the Bible, newspapers and popular hobbies to empty the seats of the Senate chamber, then the procedure becomes ridiculous. Extra sessions of Congress have been necessary because some filibuster has kept the floor in the closing hours of the session and prevented the passage of measures of immense importance to the nation. School children employing such tactics would be severely punished. Senatorial courtesy is fine, but it has been abused by the filibusterer. The country will be glad to see a change in Senate rules that will take such authority away from a minority member and at the same time speed up the work of the senate. FIRE PROTECTION TO BE ELABORATE Fire prevention measures, in the Angeles National Forest, are more elaborate than usual this season. Of foremost importance, perhaps, is the airplane patrol, which is to be maintained through co-operation of the federal government. An airplane base will be maintained either at Acadia or at Clover Field. The patrol will not be constant, but will be available in fire emergencies, and also on hazy days when the lookout of the regular forest rangers is poor. The measures that the national forest authorities are adopting are, in a way, not preventive, strictly speaking. They are designed to discover the fires in their incipiency and successfully to combat them. The people of Southern California should do the preventive work in and of themselves. That is to say, they should exercise scrupulous care in handling fire in the forest reserves and should fight fire by preventing it, so ot speak. The fire that it never started gives nobody trouble, and causes no loss and no menace to life or property. It lies with the people, individually and collectively, to give this protectional care to forests. The costly experience of last year behooves the people to be extremely careful with fire this year, in the forest reserves, and anywhere nar inflammable matter.

Lest we forget,—lest we forget! The tumult and the shouting dies, The captains and the kings depart: Still stands thin ancient sacrifice, An humble and a contrite heart. Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet. Lest we forget,—lest we forget! Far-called, our navies melt away; On dune and headland sinks the fire. Lo! all our pomp of yesterday Is one with Ninevah and Tyre! Judge of the nations, spare us yet. Lest we forget,—lest we forget! It drunk with sight of power, we loose. Wild tongues that have not thee in awe. Such boasting as the Gentiles use Or lesser breeds without the law, Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet. Lest we forget,—lest we forget!

HEALTH AND DIET ADVICE By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" FRUITS Those who believe that men should live upon a natural diet often argue that fruits are the food provided by nature for him, but the truth of the matter is that most fruits growing in their natural state usually have a very poor flavor, and undeveloped and quite frequently full of worms. All of the fruits being used today as food have been developed by cultivation, and it may be regarded as doubtful that primitive man lived on the unpalatable wild fruits for any stronger reason than that he was driven to do so by the sharp spur of necessity. As soon as he became sufficiently cunning, he learned the trick of cultivating these wild fruits, berries, and herbs, so as to grow them to a larger size and make them more tasty. The highly cultivated fruits we have today constitute a valuable addition to our food supply, provided a careful study is made of the different kinds with a view to understanding when and where they may be used to advantage. There is no magical property in fruit which makes it possible to use it indiscrimately with other foods; indeed, the contrary is rather the case, so much so that the almost care must be exercised in combining fruits with other foods, as it may quite easily become a dangerous article of diet if im properly used. There is, however, undoubtedly a place in the everyday diet for fruit and many special diets of fruit may be arranged to assist in the cure of specific diseases. (To be continued) DINNER STORIES A man was spedding a night at a hotel in a small southern town, and when going to his room for the night he told the porter that he wanted to be called easily in the morning. "Say, boss," replied the porter, "I reckon yo' ain't familiar wilde dew, modern inventions. When yo' wants to be called in de mawin' all yo' has to do is to press the button at de head of yo' bed. Den we come up an' calls yo'." Some time ago a man in Glaszow was charged with stealing a herring barrel. After the charge had been proved the principal accuser thus addressed the magistrate: "Deed, Sir Baille, the man at the bar is a great rogue; the stealing of the barrel is nothing to some of his tricks. He stole my signboard last week, and what does Your Honor think he did wit?" "That would be hard for me to say," the magistrate replied. "Wee! sir, I'll tell ye," said the witness. "He brought it into my aim shop, wit my name on it, and offered to sell me it, as he said he thought it would be of mair use to me than to anybody else." Old John Suiliyan, the pugillist, tourned for year in a playlet called "Heavy Hearts and Horny Hands"—or something like it. John L. took himself mighty seriously as a historian. Irving's death much affected him, and he took a full five minutes to absorb the news. "Hully gee! but it's a great loss," he observed at last. "There will be damn few of us left presently." One of the jury was a Kentuckian, and besides his title of "colonel" he had a red face, a square jaw and a blustering manner. Eleven of the jurors were for conviction; the colonel was convicted of the crimes in question. COMMENTS of the PRESS What Editors Are Saying PUNISH SLANDERERS OF STATE—Santa Barbara News If anyone should insert in any publication false and damaging matter reflecting on any individual or business enterprise, he could be prosecuted for his action. When an individual or association sends out false and libelous statements reflecting on an entire state and causing actual financial loss to every person in that state why should he be allowed to escape all liability for his action? It has been suggested that a law be enacted by the present legislature to put an end to the campaign of falsehood now married against California. Singularly enough, there are agencies and correspondents in this state who for trivial profit they can secure personally from their action are willing to scatter broadcast over the country any sort of story that will serve their financial purposes, regardless of the fact that they are inflicting heavy losses on the state as a whole. If the libel of an individual is a punishable offense, the libel of a great community ought to be a thousand times more so. If it is wise and just to hold individuals to accountability for false reports that may circulate about other individuals, why should they not be similarly accountable for the damage they may inflict on a community? An examination of the records, shows plainly that the reports sent out from Sacramento concerning the alleged plan to tax heavily the tourist within our borders was grossly false. While the agency which circulated the story probably did not do so with the intent of injuring California, unquestionably it did cause injury to the entire state. It was picked up and scattered broadcast over the land and used to good advantage by the foes of the state. A law which would provide an adequate fine for persons or agencies which sent out false and damaging reports would prove a real check on these offenses. And it seems to be needed. FAREWELL! We can learn a great deal about great men by considering their last words. It is the moment when vanity vanishes, and the soul stands revealed. How like Washington to utter "It is well," as he breathed his last, or Lord Byron to say "I must sleep now." These are the last words of some noted men and women: "I feel as if I were myself again."—Walter Scott. "An emperor should die standing."—Vespasian. "It matters little how the head lieth."—Raleigh. "Hully geel! but it's a great loss," he observed at last. "There will be damn few of us left presently." One of the jury was a Kentuckian, and besides his title of "colonel" he had a red face, a square jaw and a blustering manner. Eleven of the jurors were for conviction; the colonel was convinced of the prisoner's innocence. For 36 hours singly, in pairs and all together the 11 jurors pleaded, stormed and remonstrated. The colonel was adamant. At last the foreman had to report that the jury could not agree. "Why didn't you reach a verdict?" a friend asked the colonel after court had adjourned. "Verdict?" Why, I did my best suh, but 11 such stubborn men you never saw, suh. In the picture at the movies a cook was using a gas stove.
