MRS. NEWLYWED FAVoRS
FAIRLY EARLY MARRIAGES

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 11.-[Editor
Herald: After all, is the young woman
right in saying that it is wisest not 10
marry young? 1t is certainly foolish to
marry in the early teens, thereby as
suming responsibilities too heavy for
young person to carry, but is there not
bright side to the question of girl
marrying when she is just about old
enough to vote, and marrying a youth
who has just about reached his ma
jority and has no past" behind him?
An honorable, serious-minded, manly
young man, I mean--a strong minded
youth, who has always had enough
force of character not to run with the
"gang" / think I am safe in saying
that there are more of this description
among the youths than among the old
bachelors, and of course If a young
man is to marry young O girl must
marry young also.
Another point in favor Of moderately
early marriages Is that young persons
have better opportunity to adapt
themselves to each others ways
neither having acquired any set, sell
fish ways and both are young enough
to enjoy going out together and taking
part in wholesome amusements. Silly,
brainless, cigarette smoking boys, of
course, are not meant. In my opinion,
young persons get along just as we'll
in a financial way as those who marry
older. MRS. NEWLYWED.

SAYS 764 BILLIoNAIRE WOULD
OWN THE ENTIRE WORLD

LOS ANGELES, Aug. 14.-[Editor
Herald: I saw in The Herald the fol-
lowing item: Spokane, WASH, Aug.
.10.-John D. Rockefeller as a philan-
thropist and as an example for the ma
ton to copy was held up to the kindly
consideration of the national irrigation
congress this afternoon, with the ad-
vice that the life of the oil magnate be
studied as a business IDEAL"
The newest exponent of. Rockefeller
was DR.. w. J. McGee, secretary of the
inland waterways commission OF
Washington, d. G.
DR.. MCGEE frankly said he admired
John d. Rockefeller. He said, though
much sneered at, the president of the
Standard Oil is man among millions,
and "yet though Millionaire he be, there
is no reason why million other men
cannot be as successful as he"
Now, 1t is probable that many people
will believe the above statement, yet
how ridiculous! 1 have looked over
the latest statistics to hand and find
the following; Twelve nations, Unit
ed States, United Kingdom, France,
Germany, Russia, Austria Hungary,
italy, Belgium Spain, Netherlands,
Portugal and Switzerland, have pop
ulation of 496, ,094,822. Their total wealth
is 1858, ,1OO, 900, 900. The last named eight
have a population Of 26e,54S.772 and
total wealth of $90.100, 100000, being a
per capita wealth Of 1888.
The estimate OF the population of
this world is 1922, 100000. Now, II we
deduct the population of the twelve ma
tions. we have left for the rest OF the
world a population of 1,026 6O5,17S
Now, say we allow for all of those peo-
pie a per capita of S400 (being 18 per
cent more than the eight nations), we

GUNS MUST GO

nj ISSOURI has banished revolvers.
III 1t has the honor of being the first
~ state in the Union to see that alb
solute prohibition of the sale or use of
deadly weapons is one of the most prac-
tical methods of assuring the peace and
safety of a community. Another is to
enforce the laws with impartiality, Not
only revolvers, but brass knuckles and
dirks are prohibited in Missouri After
this, if there is to be fight, it must
be conducted decently and decorousy
with fists or shillelaghs. Complete and
genuine disarmament Is a first step
toward the preservation of the peace,
whether in a community or in that col
lection of rival, jealous national com
munties miscalled "civilization." There
is not a shooting scrape for which the
manners and customs of our civilization
are not responsible, and 1t seems some
what barbaric to kill a murderer ju-
dicially in cold blood at perhaps the eX-
act moment when a good citizen is
handing across the counter to a custo-
mer the weapon with which another
murder will be committed. The result OF
the prohibition of the sale or use of
deadly weapons in Missouri will
undoubtedly exercise great influence

NEW INDUSTRY

"A brought to Greater Los Angeles
IA the manufacture of turpentine
ard its byproducts. The manufactur-
ing company will be known as the In
ternational Turpentine company. The
refining process which will be used
was discovered by a citizen of Los
Angeles, so here is an industry of
strictly local origin, made in Los An
geles." and the factory will be owned
largely by local capitalists.
California goods of all kinds soon
will be known and used far and wide
On the completion of the Panama
canal the products of California indus
try will be sent to every quarter of
the globe, and with the supply will
come constantly increasing demand,
for, as our citizens who patronize
home industries are aware, there is
nothing just as good" as what is

BELIEVES TRUTH SHOULD BE
TOLD BOTH GIRLS AND BOYS

DENVER, Colo, Aug. S.-[Editor
Herald: Mary Magdalene gives us an
overdose of sarcasm in her letter OF
August A.
Ii is true that wise guidance and
clean and wholesome living are of far
more value to mold the character or
the young than the cut of a bathing
suit. But Mary Magdalene's caustic
sentences no more express the truth or
life as it is than the fashion of bath
ing suit makes a moral or immoral
person.
No one with a wholesome view of
life could accept her belief that all
men are immoral or that equal
rights" will lower the moral standard
of womankind.
The life history Mary Magdalene has
given does not furnish conclusive proof
that our girls have been or are at pres
ent entirely safe under the fool idea of
UNEQUAL rights" which at best can
but give the average young man the
equally fool idea" that he has di-
vine right to go wrong ond practice all
the vices known to man, and also con-
vinces him the human race will not
be injured by his wrongdoing, for
after SHINING to a surfeit he can re-
trieve all his vices by marrying a pure
woman and placing on her shoulders
the responsibility of raising him re-
spectacle 60 family.
The Turk steals the women for his
harem, or buys them in the market
place, and disposes of them entirely as
he wishes. Never until recently was
any kind of "rights" ever mentioned in
connection with woman. Yet she seems
far from safe there, and no country
stands lower ia the morals of it's men.
A little equal rights might even
break up the Turkish harem, for where
the status of woman is decided entirely
by the arbitrary rule of man and
woman submits in hopeless misery we
find the morals of man much lower
than in those countries where certain
inalienable rights are demanded by its
women.
Can Mary Magdalene give a satisfac-
tory reason for this fact If equal
rights" will endanger the morals of any
girl by causing her to fall victim to
"the first scoundrel who crosses her
path?
Ignorance does not always keep one
innocent, and many boys as we'll as
girls are lost to useful lives because of
a mock modesty on the part of the
parents in not being candidly frank
with their children on the sex ques-
ton No amount of apron-string gov
ernment will ever take the place OF
sensible information regarding the
mysteries of life, and the wise mother
destruction when temptation comes
will not leave either in ignorance of
their own being and the consequences
of evil.
The boy easily breaks the string of
mothers apron and finds the level of
his natural depravity because mother
does not see that willie could be
