DAILY GREETING TO OUR READERS
A sense of duty pursues us ever. It is omnipresent,
like the Deity. If we take to ourselves the wings of
the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the
sea, duty performed, or duty violated, is still with us,
for our happiness or our misery.—Daniel Webster.
20,000 MILES OF ROADS BUILDING
IN 1925
Highways of the United States are among its greatest
assets. A grand total of approximately $1,000,000,000 is to
be expended this year by states and counties to build and
to maintain highways. The states of the Union are to construct about 20,000 miles of new highway this year, costing
more than $400,000,000. A total of more than 21,000 miles
of highway will be maintained this year, at a cost of about
$125,000,000. Which means that there are already constructured and being maintained highways of total mileage that would
reach around the earth almost nine times. The total construction this year alone would reach almost round the earth!
The United States has taken its place among the leading good roads nations of the world. Taxpayers are drawn
upon for large sums for building and maintaining highways.
But it is a first class investment, benefitting all the people
and contributing greatly to the general prosperity, advance
ment and development of the country, and adding to the comfort of the people.
California is in the forefront of the road building states.
This state has a splendid system of improved highways, and
the mileage of bettered roads is being increased yearly. It is
a gilt edge investment.

BUSINESS IS TO THRIVE, SAYS PRESIDENT
Prosperity in greater volume for American business forecast by President Coolidge. He pledges his administration to a course of justice in dealing with the Nation's business and industrial interests. The President's words, in addressing the National Cotton Manufacturer's Association, are reassuring. The rule of law and justice should prevail throughout the realm of business and industry, Mr. Coolidge urges.
In this connection, it is pertinent to note the betterment of relations between labor and capital, employees and employers. There have been no serious labor troubles in any industry for a long period. The differences which arise, from time to time, between employed labor and employing capital, soon are resolved in friendly conference or by equitable arbitration. This tranquility between labor and capital is a mighty factor in promoting prosperity. It foreshadows the better era in which all industrial issues and disputes will yield to conciliatory, arbitrational methods, with a fine condition of universal co-operation between labor and capital prevailing.
STATE STANDS HIGH AT WASHINGTON
They are thinking of California at Washington, in terms of front doors, not rear doors. This is the assurance of Senator Samuel Shortridge to his fellow citizens of California. He says that President Coolidge is especially cordial in co-operating for the advancement of California's interests and conserving its welfare. Thanks to harmony among the members of Congress from this state, considerable legislation was had from the last Congress of benefit and importance to California. This includes legislation on such subjects as agricultural interests, harbors, rivers, forests and highways.
California blushingly admits that it is the Nation's front door and a very important part of the Union of states. It has enterprising Congressmen who keep official Washington apprised of California's importance and of its legislative needs.

GIRL EXAMINED WITHIN 30 DAYS
NAPA, April 10—Dorothy Ellingson has spent her first night in the company of the mentally ill.
At the state insane asylum here, the 17-year-old girl who killed her mother has joined the ranks of the "queer," branded one whose fits of passionate rage were prompted by a mind deranged.
Dorothy slept well last night in her quarters in the receiving ward where she will remain the first few days. Possibly from exhaustion, the girl was very much subdued when she arrived at 7 p.m. Less than eight hours after she heard a jury pronounce her insane.
She came in a big black limousine, the kind in which she used to ride with her "Sheik" friends on gay beach parties. Only on this ride her companions were buxom matrons and a deputy sheriff.
Dorothy brought with her only a Bible. Her books of poems and her clothing will arrive later.
Life for Dorothy here will be similar to the routine of all the other women. She will be given light work, yet have an opportunity for recreation and amusements. There are picture shows for those who are able to view them and other diversions.
For thirty days she will be kept under observation and then examined by the medical staff of the institution. Should she be declared sane then, she will be reminded to the charge of San Francisco officers and face the murder charge against her, as she wished to do from the first.
Few saw the one time jazz girl committed to the asylum, matrons who came with her said. Judge Harold Louderback had announced he would not act on the case for 24 hours, so only a few news-papermen and the janitor were present when the girl was haled into court at 3:30 p.m.
She stood with downcast head while the commitment was made and left the room without a word.
Dorothy's father and brother were not present. She had refused to participate them after the local harbor, said turned to Japan shortly, the earthquake and had sunded his nine company stow away with him in fort to get back. He said Capt. Kurushima had taken men's clothing and shoes ing them with only their wear. They had offered their passage, he said, b captain refused.

LAIM STOWAWAYS
TREATED CRUELLY
SAN PEDRO, April 10—An investigation of the alleged inhuman and cruel treatment acceded 10 Japanese stowaways to the tanker Tachibana Maru is ordered today by immigra- on officials.
The Japanese derelicts were most nude and on the verge of starvation, according to In-ector C. B. Gatley, when they lived at this port last night.
Capt. K. Kurushima, master of the Tachibana Maru, said he recovered 8 of the stowaways two days out from Yokohama, from where the vessel sailed 24 days ago. Two others were dis- covered a week later after they had gone four days without food or water.
Capt. Kurushima admitted he took the stowaways in the brig and put them on a bread-and- butter diet. "That's' the way we eat all stowaways on the Jap-ese merchant vessels," he said. Inspector Gatley said the men should be sent back to Yokohama in the same vessel. "And I am going to see that they are treat- like human beings on the reen-trip," he declared.
B. Fugitani, leader of the king and formerly a fisherman in the local harbor, said he ren- ered to Japan shortly after earthquake and had per-aded his nine companions to row away with him in an ef- t to get back. He said that capt. Kurushima had taken the man's clothing and shoes, leav- er them with only their under- ear. They had offered to work their passage, he said, but the captain refused.
HEALTH AND DIET ADVICE
By Dr. Frank McCoy
Author of "THE FAST WAY TO HEALTH"
GOOD—UNCOOKED SALAD VEGETABLES (Continued)
CELERY is probably the best of all the salad vegetables containing a large amount of most of the organic minerals. Having so little starch, it combines easily with all other food; is relished by nearly everyone, and never seems to disagree. It may be chopped up and added to a salad of other vegetables, but it is so tasty by itself that I believe it should generally be served as the entire salad part of the meal. Salt should not be added to celery, and the practice of doing this is merely a habit which can easily be broken. Celery contains sufficient sodium chloride in an org-anic form in itself, and its delicious flavor is spoiled by the addi- tion of the mineral sodium chloride or common table salt. This common table salt is always an organic mineral, and can never be used by the cell structure of the body, being simply an irritant in the stomach, and in the blood stream producing the same irritating effect as microscopic pieces of metal might.
The vegetable sodium chloride is needed in the body, and does become a part of the cell structure. It is often destroyed by cooking, and table salt is then added to the cooked food in order to furnish a substitute flavor for the flavor that has been cooked out, but this should never be done with uncooked foods.
SPINACH is not commonly used as a salad food, but if it be washed carefully and served with the leaves cool and crisp it will be found to be a good substitute for lettuce, and most people who try it are usually sufficiently pleased with its flavor to employ it in place of the other most of the time. It contains a large amount of iron, and is the richest in this element of all the leafy vegetables. Those who have deficiency of hemoglobin or red corpuscles in the blood should use a plentiful supply of raw spinach. It may either be used alone or combined with any other good food.
PARSLEY is a succulent vegetable, very rich in iron and potash. Because of its chemical composition, it has a beneficial effect upon an inflamed urinary tract, tending to counteract some of the urine acidity when this is presented in too large a percentage.
