SIxTY.sEvEN YEARS YOUNG.
By EDWIN A. NYE.

tireless eternal child" will make an
! other tour of the country.
! And she past sixty-seven,
I Bernhard was born in 1916 and was
already distinguished during our civil
war; Her son, Maurice, now grand
| father, was born in 1865. Half a dec
ade ago Bernhard was a great grand
mother.
Nevertheless
They say her marvellous golden voice
Is strong as ever and her tremendous
! energy knows no abatement.
! A recent writer says that in her sea
grit home in France she appears to be
Ia bright, active, beaming laughing wo
man Of thirty, with the grace and
health of a colt
No grandmotherly raiment for her.
I When Bernhardt goes hunting she
wears short flannel skirts and jaunty
jacket. She runs wild with a troop of
dogs at her heels, gun over her Shout
der. She whistles and sings and dances
in sheer high spirits and is the young
est of the crowd.
Her endurance is marvellous
Last year she travelled 25,OOO miles
in this country, played 2S5 dates and
received $4,000.
1t was almost worth the price as an
object lesson in courage, energy and
concentration. Bernhard herself is
greater than any drama she plays.
How does she do it?
No mere man may know how she has
mastered the details of the toilet and
bodily hygiene, SO we'll known to
Frenchwoman, by which she retains
her youthful appearance.
However,
1t easily may be said that first of all
Is this woman's dominant will power.
She Is living example of the power
Of mind over matter. Having willed
to remain young she executes her will
Thoughts, if you know how to use
them, are things!
Moreover
She keeps young by constant touch
and sympathy with young persons She
always has young people about her
She understands them. forbears them
loves them. And so she stands
A living epistle of youth.
And this is her doctrine: Will to be
young. Think the thoughts Of youth
Associate with youth Refuse to be
old. VIII to be young in body and in
spirit.

very cautious, very clever and very ex-
pert.
In one instance detectives tracked
one of these minions of the auction
fakir to her home-in a remote, OBJ
scure and shabby quarter and found
that her feet were literally on the
ground.
In other words that she had a hole
in her shoe from which a more or less
dainty toe protruded
And yet she had run the bids on a
certain alleged oriental carpet up to
fourteen hundred dollars.
Leaving after that-having complet-
ed her part of the bargain.
But the old man, who was the prey
in this particular instance, for some
reason or other did not bid further
They were trying to get him up to
fifteen hundred.
He was at something this side of
fourteen when the woman bid that
number and they We're confident the
old man had been landed.
Mr. Hagan, with the corps of detec-
tives that he had at his disposal, ran
these gentry 70 cover and made a gen
eral expose of their methods of oper-
alton.
And with the result that there is lit

prevalent in Chicago
If the public patronizes such auc-
tons it is through choice, not ignor-
ance
The people who are fooled on rugs,
however, are no greater in number
than those fooled about lot of other
objects that come within the domain
of the arts
In yesterdays papers was chronicled
the shipping from the big packing

Where the canny Jap manufactures
them into curios for the consumption

ter who returns and loads up his
friends with oriental mementoes.
And the story is still fresh of the
Tanagra figures purchased by a GER
tain great museum which were, later,
found to have been made out of New
Jersey mud
Everybody knows about the shame

Of Raphaels dug out of old stables,

OF Murillos discovered in old bar
rels, and Rubens lost masterpieces

these things in the papers.

NEWSPAPER AND THE PUBLIC

There probably never was
better Illustration of the value OF CO.
operation between newspaper and pub
lie than has been presented in this
journal Because the Press has mad
tho undivided support of the people of
Ell Centre it has been possible for it
to appear in crcditable form and ac-
complish great good for the valley,
1t seldom comes to a newspaper in
small commuD:Is to be able to chal-
lenge and compel the attention of the
people of a large city as the Press
has done in the last few months in
the case of Los Angeles.
The needs of Imperial Valley CEN
ter in Los Angeles. There, and there
almost alone, come the thousands OF
people from Eastern states no. hope
to make homes in Southern California
The Indifference ur the antagonism of
that city 10 Imperial Valley for ten
years has made colonization most diff
cult. The Press resolved that it would
smash through the crust of Los Ang-
eles and compel that city to give heed
to this valley, not for the sake OF the
valley, but for It's own sake. The self
assigned task was a great one, but
success implied vast benefit TO every
BE TO compel Los Angeles to coop
crate in the colonization of the valley,
instead OF eternally knocking it, then
it will be possible TO add thousands OF
people each year to the population and
values here will be doubled or treb-
led
And the Press is winning its fight.
1t is compelling the Los Angeles news
papers, the Los Angeles jobbers and
the Los Angeles bankers to realize that
the destiny of that city is at stake and
its biggest trade menaced by the atti-
tude of the people of Los Angeles
themselves.
The time has come when there is
hope that the Realty Board the Asso-
ciated Jobbers and the Chamber of
Commerce Of Los Angeles will yet ap-
preciate the import to that city of
this valley and will use their influence
to promote colonization instead OF i'm
peding IT,
That the Press is doing splendid
work in bringing about the change is
the testimony of people in all parts
Of the valley. But it is important also
10 realize that the Press is enabled to
accomplish good only in proportion as
it retains the undivided support of the
people.
AS has been said heretofore, there
have been cities like Portland Or, and
Los Angeles which centered their in
nuence in a single newspaper which
became a power in the land, While 9TH
er communities divided their support
between numerous publications no one
OF which was able to grow to large
proportions.
No newspaper can rise above the
level OF the financial support accord
ed it, and the Press believes the SEN
timent Of this community is in favor
Of one newspaper of strength rather
than numerous weak publications.
Il IS not promises that make news
paper, blt achievement, II is possible
to promise anything, but the things
one can do are limited. The Press be-
licves the public accords it credit for
doing the things that are possible.

SAN DIEGO is oVERRUN
WITH UNEMPLOYED MEN


SAN DIEGO, Jan. G.-San Diego is
orerrun with unemployed For days
they have been pouring in from the
north on frieght trains, and along the
highways, searching for work, penni-
less and begging for food.
The police were kept so busy arrest
ing vagrants that the jail was finally
Overcrowded yesterday and eighteen
of the unforunates under sentence
were paroled. The Salvation Army
barracks have been crowded to capac-
ity with penniless men without shell
ter. Other organizations have also
been caring for crowds
The result has been Il joint appeal
by the chief of police, the county Of
ficials, civic societies and charitable
organizations that the city and coun-
ty governments provide some means
of giving the idle men enough en-
plOyment to tide them over until the
delayed fruit crops ripen and the usual
channels of employment become more
active. AS a result, the city and coun-
ty will probably take some action to-
ward the establishment OF work camps
where the unemployed can be given
work en- the streets and roads Tor a
few days each week at fair wages.
The county may yet decide to use
it's share Of the unemployed in cult
