The teachers of the public schools
of Los Angeles wish the children to
include the old fashioned "sir" and
ina am" when addressed by their
instructors and the parents of the
boys and girls who attend the schools
in that city object, on the ground
that it is humiliating to them. The
parents of the California city too are
not alone in their view of this mat
ter and for the same reason. Some
of the parents even in this county
concur with them, if one can judge
by the frequency with which some of
the children fail to say "sir" and
ma'am to their seniors. 1t used to
be considered though as sign OF
good manners and it is form OF
politeness which in our opinion, ought
still to be practiced. No boy or CIR
is humiliated by politeness but they
do suffer in the good opinion of every
one by their failure to show the little
courtesies expected of them to those
older than they are

Meetings of many of the local divi-
sions of the Produce Exchange will
be held throughout the Peninsula be-
fore the season opens for the ship
ment of produce, for the considera-
ticn of questions looking to the best
interests of the farmers. AT these
meetings the business manager and
other officers OF the Exchange will be
on hand to present their views and
offer suggestions in regard to the
preparation, handling and shipment
Of our produce to market. The pack
age into which it is to be shipped is
to be especially considered and the
advantages of standard barrel, uni
form in size and attractive in appear
ance, is to be urged. These meetings
in fact, it is generally understood,
are to be held with the view OF bring
ing the farmers in closer touch with
the workings of the Exchange, to the
end that mistakes in the past may be
corrected and improvements adopted
in many ways which are most likely
to secure for the farmers the highest
market price for their produce. TIC
these meetings all farmers are invited
whether members of the Exchange OF
rot, and q full attendance is hoped
for and expected.

Reed Smoot, the Mormon, retains
lis seat in the United States Senate.
The four years contest against him
was ended Wednesday when forty-two
colleagues voted to sustain him as
against twenty-eight for theresolution
to unseat him. Nine republicans voted
against him and three democrats
voted for him, one of them Hon. Jno.
". Daniel, of Virginia. The Republi-
cans, it was charged, during the dis
cussion on the question of Senator
Shoots retention OF his seat, had sur
rendered to the Mormon Church and
cid this to gain Mormon votes at Re
sacrifice of Christian moral support
throughout the nation. The reason
for Mr.. Daniels vote is not given and
he will be unable, we believe, to give
an explanation that will be satisfac-
tory to his constituents. He will be
unable to convince them that he had
the right to cast his vote for a man,
in the face of the protests of hundreds
of thousands of Christian men and
women throughout the land, who, as
it was shown, was the child of polya-
NOUS parents by fourth wife, whose
father was the child of polygamous
marriage and whose mother was a
polygamous wife-and who would not
say, when questioned in the matter
that he had ever uttered a word
ag inst polygamy. With all theii
affection for Senator Daniel they can
not approve a vote by him in favor Of
man, who is representative of the
crime of MormOnism

In sad remembrance of my dear
grand father, George Bull, who died
February s, 1907, aged 70 years,
months.
Twas just two weeks ago to-day when
his dear spirit fled,
How sudden was the summons
when the word came he was dead,
His heart was true, his life had been
long,
Yet not our will but Gods be done
No more your cheerful smiles we see,
Since to Heaven you have gone,
You prayed, God bless your children,
And bring them to the throne.
When the angel brought the message,
That my grandfather must go,
None but those who had lost one,
Could our grief and sorrow know.
In Zion cemetery the stars are shining
Upon the lone and silent grave,
Where sleepeth without dreaming,
The dearest one we could not save
Loved in life, in death remembered.
By his granddaughter,
Mrs. Maggie Hopkins Killmon.

In Mem0rlam.

In sad but loving remembrance of
nv dear aunt Mrs. O. K. Mckown,
who departed this world January %,
1907. twas hard to see the one we
loved 80 we'll laid within the cold
damp earth. Twas with aching hearts
that loving friends and relatives
turned their weary steps to a home
that was once bright and cheerful but
is now dark and dreary, never to be
lighted again by the smile of the dar-
ling mother.
OF all the parting that wiring the heart,
OF friends from one another,
The saddest parting to be known,
Is the parting from ones mother.
In the grave yard softly sleeping,
Where the flowers gently wave,
Lies the one we loved so dearly,
In lone and silent grave.
How we miss her coming footsteps,
How we miss her everywhere,
The home is not what it used TO be,
Since my dear aunt's not there.
Oh! how patiently she waited,
How she bore her earthly pain,
But o. God we know she did not,
Suffer here on earth in vain.
Dearest aunt we know you're waiting
For us on the Heavenly shore,
There we all will strive to meet you
When our work on earth is GER.
BY her loving niece,
Viola Kellam,
In sad but loving remembrance Of
nv dear husband and father, LloyC
W. Mears, who died February Il, l9Oo
One year, oh my dearest can it be?
The weary months mourn for thee
And yet it feels so fresh, the pain,
l count them DER and DER again.
Once my home was bright and happy
Oh, how sad and dreary to-day
For my dear and loving husband,
| Has forever passed away.
All. vacant is the Preside chair,
The smile that won, no longer there
From door and hall, from porch ant
lawn,
The echo of that voice is gone.
That loved arm on which / rested,
Is no longer at my side,
And the voice l loved to follow,
Never more shall be my guide.
Yet there is a comfort that comes t.
me,
Amid all my strife and care.
When Jesus calls me home to Heaven
We will meet each other there.
Darling father we will meet you,
We will meet you by and by,
In that land where there is no parting
We will never say good by.
BY his wife and two children.
