Keen it Sacred

The advice of Rev. w. J. O'Sullivan
of this city, against such forms of
merrymaking as belittle the solemnity
of the marriage ceremony is timely
and deserves the highest commendat-
ion. Frequently newly married cou-
pies are Inundated and made ridicu-
lous, the treatment being littls short
of persecution. A wedding may be
joyous and pleasant without rude and
boorish conduct Marriage ought not
to be treated as a joke. II should be
a very solemn and serious compact
and if the fact were impressed more
strongly upon young men and women
there would be fewer unhappy marri-
ages and fewer divorces. Father o.
Sullivan has. performed distinct pub
lie service in protesting against Gus
toms that detract from the sacredness
of the marriage yows.-Montpelier

A GENEROUS OFFER
w. L. Gokay viii Refund Your Money
if Partisan Sage Doesn't Danish
Dandruff

Pretty strong talk, perhaps you'll
say, but it's honest talk, every word
of it, because if W. L. Gokay was not
absolutely certain; if he did not know
from actual results obtained he could
not make such a generous offer.
Partisan Sage, which can now be
obtained in every town in America, is
also guaranteed to stop falling hair
and itching scalp.
1t is the ideal delightful reiuvenating
hair dressing that makes hair grow in
abundance. Partisan Sage is a prime
favorite with women, because it keeps
the hair brilliant and fascinating, is
daintily perfumed and is not sticky or
greasy.
The price for large bottle is only
so cents at w. L. Gokay's who guar
antees it. Sold everywhere, or direct,
all charges prepaid by the American
makers, Giroux Mfg. Co., Buffalo, N.

SAY CONSOLIDATION
IS UNAFFECTED BY
WILMINGTON FIGHT
Committeeman TO PROCEED
WITH PLANS
Declare Trouble Between Port and
Banning Company Will Not In.
terfere with Campaign for
Greater Los Angeles

Differences existing between Will
mington and the Banning company
will not necessarily affect the CONSOLE
dalton plans being pushed forward by
the Los Angeles Consolidation commit
tee This is the view taken by mem
bers of the committee after reading
the newspaper account of the action
of the Wilmington trustees in with
drawing the petition filed with the
war department for the closing of the
channel north of Mormon Island.
Wilmington made this application, it
is said, on the promise that the Ban
ming company would dredge a ship
channel around the island to connect
with the municipal harbor on the
east.
1t is understood that the action of
the city trustees of Wilmington was
taken as result of the interruption
to work on the city harbor which
Hancock Banning caused. It is as
serted that without the city's permits
sion, the federal government will not
consent to closing up the coveted
strip, and that by withdrawing the
application for closing up the inter-
vening channel between Mormon is
land and the mainland the Banning
company will be blocked indefinitely
from developing the island for term
inal purposes.
However, the plans of the Los An
geles Consolidation committee will go
forward with vim. Secretary Flem-
ing, not being advised of the status of
the controversy between Wilmington
and the Banning company, refrained
from discussing it, but he said that
he could not see that the war cloud
was Of sufficient expanse to cover or
obscure the consolidation plans. He
would not comment on the matter be-
cause the facts were not before him.

CHINA SOUVENIRS RECALL
FILLMORE ADMINISTRATION
Interesting Articles Owned by Former
President Secured for the
White House

WASHINGTON, May 19.-Valuable
additions to the china pieces owned by
President Fillmore were placed in the
White House cabinets today.
Some time ago the widow of Presi
dent F'illmores nephew wrote the SUI
perintendent of public buildings and
grounds suggesting that specimens of
the President Fillmore china doubtless
could be found in Buffalo, his old home.
Mrs. Abbie G. Baker, who has charge of
the White House collection for Mrs.
Taft, went TO Buffalo to see if any of
the ware could be secured. None of
Fillmores lineal descendants are living,
but Mrs. Baker found a number of
Fillmore's old friends, and through
them she located many relics. Two sis
ters Mrs. E. B. Terry and Miss Cor
nelia Burlis, had purchased the Fill
more mansion with it's furniture, and
they contributed to the White House
collection an old Staffordshire platter
and a willow pattern plate which orig
inaly belonged to President Fillmore.

SAN PEDRO IS
LOYAL TO CALL
SEASIDERS APPRECIATE WORK
OF WATERWAYS HEAD
Residents of Port Town Grateful to
Former President for Success
full Efforts in Favor
of Union

SAN PEDRO, May 19.-Considerable
surprise was expressed here today at
the article appearing in a Los Angeles
newspaper yesterday morning and re-
lative to Joseph H. Call and the NUM-
cipal Waterways association. Many of
the consolidation leaders stated this
morning that Mr. Calls early and un-
firing efforts for consolidation had
made the issue the success it is today
John A. Anderson of this city, one
of the members of the consolidation
committee said this morning.
Il am surprised at the article. AS
far as the consolidation movement
here is concerned, but for his assistance
from the early part of lest fall up to
the present day it would not have had
the success that it has attained. Nor
is there any person connected with
the movement who is held in higher
estimation by the friends of CONSOLE
dation in San Pedro than Joseph H.
Call of Los Angeles"
Others of the committee expressed
themselves in similar terms.
Another member of the consolida-
ton committee and also a member of
the Waterways association stated that
the association had done its part,
which was largely in the nature of
preliminary educational work, and Mr..
Call had made the waterways a sue
cess.
He resigned from the presidency of
the association several months ago
and Sidney A. Butler was elected to
fill his place.
The citizens of this city have well
coined all the help offered on the con-
solidation question and will continue
to do So They consider the issue too
great for personal feelings and while
the Los Angeles consolidation cont
mittee is faithfully carrying out its
plans and perhaps has gone farther
than the Waterways association, they
do not care, according to the senti-
ment expressed today, to belittle the
work of either the association or of
the man who made it the success
which it was
