of industry in Chicago"
Chicago has become the great storm center of strikes

A YEARS Herald RFcoRD


with the beginning Of the present week The Herald
started upon Its second year under the present man
sgement At the same time the paper became the Off
cia newspaper of this city In view Of the per-
sona interest manifested in The Herald by readers
during the past year, It appropriate glance at
its in that time and its future prospects
year ago The Herald had run the course Of a dis
asrous experiment For four years it's managers had
been attempting the mpossibe-trying to build Repub.
lcan newspaper structure on Democratic foundation
The folly Of the scriptura who built his house upon

When the present management assumed control Of
The Herald last June the first drastic act the razng
of the Republican structure clear down to the solid old
Democratic foundation-the foundation of Jeersonian
Democracy. At that point the work of rebuilding the
supersructure began.
Passing from further aluson to the political
Mobilization of The Herald, with which all its readers
thoroughly familiar, we may note other leading
points in the ideas formulated year ago for the
duct of the paper fundamental feature of the plan
determination that The Herald should be clean"
paper in the broadcast sense-a paper requiring
sorship test it's fitness enter the homes of moral
community. How faithfully that idea has been carried
Another basic feature Of the plan was to make The
Herald the press exponent par excellence of Los An
geles standing by the cys best interests in all circum
stances uninhuenced by fear or favor. Whether any
of judgment has been committed in respect to that
policy the readers of the paper also may decide No
reader point to wlful departure from the rule
"Hew to the line let the chips fall where they may"
The best evidence that the outlined plan
cessul is in the practical results Overcoming all
obstacles that stood in its way The Herald today shows
record of marvellous progress and prosperity Having
inspired public confidence in its honesty of purpose and
having presented complete general and local
paper giving "a the that's fit to print" its circu-
laton has grown steadily and solidly from date
following the change of year ago.
That change, from Republican to a Democratic
basis involved loss Of circulation at first followed
soon by compensating benefit from the true Democracy
of Southern California and the non-partisans who
proved generally the character of The Herald under it's
new management.
That the business interests of Los Angeles approve
Herald is evidenced by the steady increase Of
the papers advertising patronage covering all the lead
ing lines of business including the largest and most
successful business concerns in the city.
So much for the year that is past-the one just be-
gun will speak for itself 1t is proper to say however,
that there is not a dark cloud in The Herald's sky
Smooth sailing is ahead bright sunshine above and The
Herald is to keep the lead exponent and de-

she deems herself happy and finds
great cause for thankfulness in what
for most people would be barren old
age devoid of everything calculated to
make old age tolerable.
The life history of Aunt Esther is
not one which lends itself to romance.
She was born in Plymouth township,
not far from her present home, on the
first day of August, 1914. She was one
of a family of eight or nine, born to
heritage of poverty. Her father is
remembered as stirring" man, who
began life with nothing, married pre-
maturely, and worked hard to provide
for his family. In cutting timber to
build them a house he was killed by
the fall of tree. His widow was left
without resources and found it i'm
possible to hold her family together.
One by one they were bound OUT to
to service, and we're never reunited.
At a tender age Esther was thus put
to work. and remembers this period
chiefly as one of neglect and ill-treat-
ment.
Time may have modified, but has
not obliterated, the memory of the
wrongs of her youth. She grew up a
willfu1, headstrong, undiscip1ined girl,
difficult to manage, no doubt but with
a strong character and right instincts.
There is a tradition that she was
wild" but in a community still domi-
mated by Puritan spirit and peculiar
ly intolerant of everything savoring of
individuality of thought or action, the
term would mean less than it might
elsewhere. 1t is probable she resent
ed the severe and unsympathetic
guidance which may have been offer
ed her, and decided to conquer the
difficulties of life in her own way.
BY one kind of work or another,
mostly domestic service, she made
shift to live, and finally drifted to Ty
