Climatic conditions conspire to make this a health promoting locality. Many have come here for health; many are coming for this purpose. This Southland has taken many a case of a person broken down in health and has restored that person to health. This section is not bidding for the sick and ailing. Particularly it does not encourage the coming of indigent sick because their plight here may become extremely embarrassing all around. In some instances, indigents are sent into this state from their home localities, apparently for the purpose of having them become public charges here. This of course, is unfair to California. But this sunny clime has been and is the Mecca for great numbers of persons in indifferent health. It always will be Nature's sanatorium, thanks to its mild climate and pure air. And another thing: This clime conduces to good health because it promotes cheerfulness and outdoor exercise and diversion. There is no season of the year here closed to outside pastimes. This inclines those living here and those who visit here to be out much in the genial sunshine.

And another thing: This clime conduces to good health because it promotes cheerfulness and outdoor exercise and division. There is no season of the year here closed to outside pastimes. This inclines those living here and those who visit here to be out much in the genial sunshine. The psychic as well as the physical effects of this are decidedly wholesome and promotive of sound health of mind and body. Calvin Coolidge has a mind and a will of his own. PEACE MOVEMENT GRIPS CENTRAL AMERICA Where is the best example of peace-promotion being given? In the region where it least was expected. It is in Central America. A few years ago that was the most bellicose area on the face of the globe. There were revolutions and international conflicts without number. But all that has changed. The five republics of Central America are in process of ratifying treaties providing for disarmament, arbitration of disputes, appointment of commissions of investigation and a general treaty of peace and amity, providing for non-recognition of revolutionary governments. All the five republics constituting what has been known as the "Balkans of America" are expected to ratify these treaties soon. Costa Rica already has ratified. This is distinctly encouraging. It betokens the dawning of a new era in these sister republics. It shows that the trend all over this Western Hemisphere is toward pence, security and orderly government. That these Latin republics should take upon themselves the solemn vows to observe peaceful processes in settling disputes among them and in discouraging unwarranted revolutions is distinctly to their credit. They are setting an example before the world that is worthy of emulation by countries of the Eastern Hemisphere.

About 97 per cent of us have inferiority complex, and the wars are writing autobiographes. Freedom was what men had in they weren't too busy and supervised to give a darn. The adjective in a "good neighborhood" merely refers to kind of spenders dwelling in unconscious humor: New York is surprised because a low-w has a long run there. Just how many wars would be if nobody above military authority to make war? There are few luxuries in jail few people go there who areustomed to luxuries. The pedestrian's lot wouldn't so hard if he could watch cars ankles at the same time. Modern example of a husband living the last word. "Don't hint that thing at me, dear." Still, if the rich man got into it made the country; the Senants it. Songs might be worse. There few bell-bottom pants in dress. Time: Little space on the page that a murderer will pay tomorrow. Progressive is a man who is because radicals agree with a funny country that won't by the laws and continues hide the law makers. Ants' industry was first led thousands of years ago there were no sugar bowls. It's estimated about 907 lives wuz saved here durin' th' last year, th' autoists jest absolutely comin' t'a standatill an' refusin' t' go ahead.

They sent him letter after letter, all of them polite, but each more threatening than the last. Finally they sent their representative down to give him a sporting chance. "Now," said the caller, "we must have a settlement. Why haven't you sent us anything? Are things going badly?" "No, everything's going fine. You needn't worry. My bankers will guarantee me all right." "Then, why haven't you paid up?" "Well, you see, those threatening letters of yours were so well gotten up that I've been copying them and sending them out to some customers of mine who won't pay up, and I've collected nearly all outstanding debts. I was only holding back because I felt sure there must be a final letter, and I wanted to get the series complete." POEMS THAT LIVE I PRITHEE SEND MR BACK MY HEART I prithee send me back my heart. Since I cannot have thine, For if from yours you will not part, Why, then, should thou have mine? Yet now I think ont, let it lie; To find it were in vain; For thou'n't a thief in either eye Would steal it back again. Why should two hearts in one breast lie, And yet not lodge together? O Lovel where is thy sympathy? If thus our hearts thou sever? But love is such a mystery, I cannot find it out; For when I think I'm best resolved, I then am in most doubt. Then farewell care, and farewell woe, I will no longer pine; The pedestrian's lot wouldn't so hard if he could watch cars on ankles at the same time. Modern example of a husband giving the last word. "Don't think that thing at me, dear." Still, if the rich man got into heaven he might want a winter time in a warmer place. So far no big fight is scheduled for 1925 except that little affair between Couzens and Mellon. Correct this sentence: "Just erk and beans for me," said his sweetle" and a glass of water."

HEALTH AND DIET ADVICE By Dr. Frank McCoy Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH" FRUITS (Continued) The following tables and comments should be helpful to you, if studied carefully and impressed upon your memory. ACID FRUITS. Apples, Apricots, Peaches, Nectarines, Pears, Grapes, Oranges, Grapefruit, Lemons, Plums, Loquats, Cherries, Berries, Pineapple, Tomatoes and Melons. APPLES in the raw state are a delicious fruit, which, however, is better taken by itself and never combined with starchy food. There is a considerable amount of carbohydrate material in the apple, and the combination in itself, with its own acids, seems to produce fermentation easily, so that frequently it cannot be used by people in whom this condition of fermentation sets up readily. If apples are used in place of a meal, they may be combined with one or two ounces of nuts. FRESH APRICOTS can only be obtained in certain parts of the country, and are an excellent fruit for use in a fruit fast. They should be taken alone, or with such proteid foods as nuts, cheese or milk. If they are eaten in this way, the skins may be eaten, if well washed. PEACHES. Summer complaint, which is so common among children, occurs mostly during the peach season, and an almost specific cause seems to be the mixture of peaches with starches food. If the child is given peaches between meals when the stochmach is still full of starchy food, it will have just as had an effect as if the two had been eaten together. It is surprising how few cases of dysentery occur where the cause cannot be laid directly to this combination. (To be continued) MONDAY, MARCH 30, 1922 WHO'S WHO IN THE DAYS NEWS DR. WALTER SIMONS Germany's president ad interesse, Dr. Walter Simons, has taken an active part in the political life of this country for many years and up to the time of his appointment as foreign minister in 1920, held many legislative and judicial appointments. His present post is head of the Leipzig federal court, and office corresponding to that of William H. Hart, chief justice of the United States supreme court. As foreign minister he took a leading part in the conference which led to the signing of the Treaty of Versailles, he participated in the Spa conference in 1820 and was head of the German delegation to the London conference in March, 1921. Following the ultimatum of the allies after the conference he resigned his cabinet office and later became the German legal adviser on the Upper Silesian boundary question. Serving under the Centrist Chancellor Fehrenbach, he soon became the leading spirit in the new cabinet formed after the United uprising in the Ruhr, in May, 1920. As foreign minister he sat with the German delegates at the meeting with allied representatives at Spa from July 5 to 16, 1820, when under threat of occupation of the Ruhr district the Germans agreed to disarmment and reduction of the army to 150,000 men by Oct. 1 and to 100,000 by January. In March 1921, he created a sensation throughout Germany and the allied countries by addressing an appeal to President Harding to act as mediator in the reparations question. The delivery of the note was timed so that in the event Harding did not accept it, it would bring the United States into the reparations controversy before May 1, the date set by France to move her military forces into the Ruhr. COMMENTS OF THE PRESS What Editors Are Saying GEOGRAPHY THAT CONFUSES—Fresno Republican Geography is an elastic science, so free and easy that some folks never learn the rudiments of it. We have never learned, the most of us that Brooklyn is New York. Some of us resist the notion that either San Pedro or the Owens Valley or the Yosemite are to be found in the confines of Los Angeles, arguable as any of these classifications might be. Perhaps it is only a California who will be shocked by this little floppancy in this week's Collier: "San Francisco is to have a high school with none of the usual facilities. Students will attend classes regularly. There will be no boisterous gatherings, no sensuous dances, no staying out until all hours of the morning, no joy rides in motor cars. This school will have no handicaps whatever. It should be a wonderful demonstration of what a high school should be—and yet— "It is to be in the San Quentin Penitentiary." MAKE LEGISLATIVE INQUIRY THOROUGH—San Diego Union The only comment that seems to apply particularly to the state assembly investigating committee's report on the herb doctor inquiry, is that the thing "looks funny." This comment may be unjust to the legislators mentioned in connection with the affair, and it may be unjust to the legislature at large—indeed, we hope it is—but the fact remains that this comment is obvious, appropriate to the appearances, and will be generally made. The assembly will have a chance to examine the report in detail, to discuss in the open, and perhaps will be able to clear up this wrongful impression of the affair—if, that is, the impression is really wrongful. On the face of it, the report simply whitewashes the legislators named, and plus the blame upon the legislature's hired men who participated in the affair. The testimony implicating the legislators has apparently been rejected, and the testimony implicating the chief clerk and the sergeant at arms has been accepted. "Us legislators gotta stand together"—that is the motto which the man in the street will inevitably read into committee's report. It is up to the assembly today to disprove this interpretation—and to do so by bringing the charges and facts into into the open, showing clearly which assertions are trustworthy and which are not, and why—or to go still further in the process of covering up, and thus to increase and to some extent justify popular distrust of legislators and legislative methods. Press dispatches predict a "warm fight" over the committee findings. The result will be interesting and of considerable importance. Public officials all over the country face a situation that is the natural outgrowth of legislative assemblies unwieldy in size and hampered by the political unrest of the times. The actual business of these assemblies is no longer transacted on the floor. In March 1921, he created a sensation throughout Germany and the allied countries by ad dressing an appeal to President Harding to act as mediator in the reparations question. The delivery of the note was timed so that in the event Harding did not accept it, it would bring the United States into the reparations controversy before May 1, the date set by France to move her military forces into the Ruhr and other industrial regions of Germany. The communication of Dr. Simons caused a tremendous outburst of feeling in Germany, and in some places almost precipitated clashes between different political factions. Copying the actions of American politicians, Dr. Simons took a swing around Germany, visiting practically every important centre in the republic, before he went to the London conference as head of the German delegation. H resigned from the cabinet in May 1921, following the allies ultimatum on reparations. He later became the German legal adviser on the Upper Silesian boundary commission and was appointed president of the supreme court in 1922. "We legislators gotta stand together—that is the mood when the man in the street will inevitably read into committee's report. It is up to the assembly today to disprove this interpretation—and to do so by bringing the charges and facts out into the open, showing clearly which assertions are trustworthy and which are not, and why—or to go still further in the process of covering up, and thus to increase and to some extent justify popular distrust of legislators and legislative methods. Press dispatches predict a "warm fight" over the committee findings. The result will be interesting and of considerable importance. Public officials all over the country face a situation that is the natural outgrowth of legislative assemblies unwieldy in size and hampered by the political unrest of the times. The actual business of these assemblies is no longer transacted on the floor because that would practically be impossible, but is done in committee conference or in other ways "behind the scenes." While there is no reason to believe that this procedure is generally dishonest, it does have the effect of keeping the vital matters of political business largely hidden from the public, and the natural result is a distrust which makes the public willing to believe the worst. The public cagarsess for scandal—an eagerness tempered by cynicism, rather than intensified by any general indignatio—has strikingly demonstrated in national affairs within the last year. This attitude is not intelligent perhaps, but it exists; and it offers a certain public interest that may in time be intelligently directed to the general good. The fact that it exists, however, does impose upon the public official an absolute need for avoiding not only evil but the appearance of evil. It is because it presents the appearance of evil—because it "looks funny"—because it has all the earmarks of a "whitewash"—that this committee report requires a thorough and public investigation. The heathen Chinee in the herb doctor case may have manufactured his allegations out of whole cloth; the legislators named may be entirely guiltless, and the employees may be deserving of the committee's reprimand; but the committee's report is not convincing—and it ought to be.
