Live Up to Your Canaclty..

It's easy enough to drift along with
your position, each day digging out
and solving the problems which come
up. But the men who count are the
ones who dig up something new.
They stand for progress; they dream
and make their dreams come true
they recognize the handicap of con-
tentment.
They are the men who know they
can accomplish what is expected of
them-but their ambition forces them
to do something out of the ordinary

CITIZENS CANDIDATES
WIN OVER SOCIALISTS
INDEPENDENT LAST IN RACE
FOR SCHOOL BOARD
Regulars Work Hard to Carry Election
and Pile Up Big Pluralities Over
ColIectiVists-Woma
Runs Poorly
Especial to The H5rald.l

PASADENA. June 4-The Citizens
ticket triumphed over the Socialist tick
ct at the election held today to name
three members of the board OF educa-
tion. The successful candidates were
C. e. Chamberlain William K. knights
and D. ]. Macpherson. DR.. w. A. Cum
dy, the independent candidate, ran last.
Nearly double the votes of two years
ago were cast 1885 men going to the
polls today, while at the last previous
election only S26 votes were cast. Inc
large increase is due to the hot cam
paign waged by the Socialists and to
the efforts of the party leaders TO get
out voters for the Citizens ticket.
The vote cast was as follows. Z. Il.
Chamberlain, 1921; D. ]. Macpherson,
1901; William K. Knight, 126oi Q. 1.
Nichols. Socialist, 251; B. F. Oddway,
Socialist, 227; Mrs. Helen Firman, So
cialist, 215; DR.. w. A Cundy, independ-
ent, 209.
The regulars exerted every effort dur
ing the day to get out the vote, as Is
shown by the totals, which are far in
excess of the ordinary subordinate cleo
tion in this city. Automobiles were
kept busy all day long in rushing vot-
ers to the polls.
With but one voting place for the
people of the district, the task was no
easy one, as may be imagined, when it
is considered that the northern limits
of the district are beyond the first range
of the mountains and the eastern and
western boundaries almost five miles
apart.
The Socialists, who tried to elect at
least one member of the board. bent
their strength against William F.
Knight the weakest member of the reg
ular ticket. They, living mostly in the
center of the city, voted early, but at
an early hour in the afternoon it was
apparent that their ticket had no
chance to carry, although Nichols was
running ahead of the others.
The result is no more than was ex-
pected after the scare which was thrown
into the regulars by the Socialists,
which drove the leaders of all factions
to unite in order to save the school
board from Socialistic control.

TRAVEL TO SUBWAY SHOWS
VAST GAIN IN POPULATION
Public Service Commission of New
York Announces Figures on
Amazing Growth

NEW YORK, June 4.-When the sub
way was constructed in this city it was
designed to carry 100000 passengers a
day, and then it was considered that
many years would pass before this ca
pacity was reached. But now the pub
lie service commission has decided to
lengthen the platforms so that they
will accommodate ten-car express
trains instead of eight, and siX-car To-
cal trains instead of five, in view of
the fact that for the last year the sub
way has been carrying nearly twice DIS
many passengers as its capacity was
estimated
On one day last April the subway
cGrried S93, ,023 passengers. The subway
carried 1162 62c9,313 passengers during
the first year of it's operation, and last
year it carried 220, 991 219. The public
service commission estimates that the
population of the city is doubling every
thirty to thirty-two years and that
the travelling population is doubling
every twelve years. The population in
1908 was 4.014000 people, and the trav-
cling population 1921 100000.

REBELLION BREAKS OUT
AGAIN IN TURKISH CITY
No information Is Received as to Cas-
uaIties Resulting from Hos
tiIities at Deurtyul

ALEXANDRETTA, Asiatic Turkey,
June 4.-There was some firing by
Turkish soldiers last night in the vii
lage of Deurtyul. No information re-
garding the casualties has been re-
ceived.
1t appears that the commander of
the troops some days ago demanded
that the villagers deliver all their arms
to him. The Turkish officers, who are
greatly distrusted, have been acting
in a most arbitrary manner with the
villagers and there has been dread of
a repetition of the Adana tragedy.
WASHINGTON, June 4.-Help is
needed in the districts of Asiatic Tur-
key. where the recent massacres of
Armenians has left an enormous num-
Der of widows and orphans. Thirty
thousand people are being supported
by the relief committee at Adana. This
information from Ambassador Leish-
man was received at the state depart
ment today.
