A wise community, like a far-sightel
individual, seeks to gain some profit
from adverse conditions. The dispo-
sltlon to make adversely yield advan-
tage, If only the slightest, constitutes
one difference between strength and
weakness in character. The present
dry season in California, a drawback
IN some particulars, is to witness a
permanent addition to the resources Of
the state through the wells dug and
pumps purchased. Thus one path 10
larger prosperity lies through drought
to irrigation.

Tn; ar::"nt city of Winchester En-

thousandth anniversary as a munich

been one Beornwulf, in 1913. It was
it will be remembered, the capital Of
England in the reign of Alfred. the
one thousandth anniversary of whose
Death is soon to be commemoratel
Winchester is identified with the Carr
eliot of the Athurian legends. Curious
ly enough, this very time has been
chosen for a serious attack upon the
history of Alfred. Our chief knowl-
edge concerning him is derived from
Latin manuscript attributed to AS
ser. But careful investigators now de-
clare that manuscript to be a mere
compilation of more or less apocryphal
tales, made some centuries after AL
fred's time, and there is thus actual
danger that the great king may be-
come as doubtful and shadowy a per-
sOnage as Arthur himself Neverthe-
less, the word will probably continue
to cling to the tale of the burnt cakes
and rightly, for it is edifying and in
spring, whether authentic or not.
