IS
RECORDED; NOT
THOUGHT SEVERE

San Jose, Calf, April 30.--An earth
quake of rather severe intensity not
more than four hundred miles distant,
was recorded early today at Lick OH
servatory, Mount Hamilton, near San
Jose. Professor William Wallace
Campbell said an exceptionally fine
Eecord indicating the distance was
made on the seismograph, the shock
occurring at 1851 O'Clock and con-
tinuing forty-five minutes The main
direction of the shock was north and
south.
Professor CaInpbell said the shock
was recorded as extending in all di-
recuons, but the principal movement
was north and south.
Il do not think it one that would
have caused damage to much extent"
he said. The center of the disturbance
appeared to have been no more than
fcur hundred rniicS from Lick obser-
vatory, and no closer than 500 miles. -
San Francisco, April 30.--No earth
quake was reported today within a ra-
dius of 100 miles of Los Angeles, ac-
cording to reports received The
University of Washington seismograph
at Seattle recorded severe earth
quake about 1000 miles distant The
Gonhaga university seismoGraph at
Spokane recorded severe earth shocks
estimated to be $500 miles distant in
a southwesterly direction, The vibra-
tions began at ll:29 p. m. and contin-
ued until 2:i5 a. m.
New York, April 30.-Cable reports
received by the South American Gable
company indicate that the earthquake
which occurred in San Salvador two
days ago may prove as disastrous as
the great quake of 1917, it was said at
the offices of the company today. No
details have been received but the,
company's agent in San Salvador
cabled that the damage was extensive,
the disaster apparently rivaling that
of 1917.
The first shock was felt Monday
morning, followed by twenty others of
lesser violence.
At least forty persons were killed
and millions of dollars of property de-
stroyed in June, 1917, when an earth
quake accompanied by an eruption of
the volcano of San Sanvalor wiped
out many towns in the republic.

KEEP THEM IN SERVICE

Why would il not be 4 good plan not 10 muster out
those patriotic. loyal. hsrdworking public speakers, the
-Four Minute Men. who did such magnihcent work dur
ing the war drives? Why cannot they be used to stir the
people up in peace drives The Lafayette Journal says:

kinds of public gatherings. was very large. There were
a great many people who had little idea what the war
was about. But when these people attended a moving
picture show or other public affair, and a -Four Minute
Man put over his little outburst of oratory, they just
had TO listen. You can say a lot in four minutes if YOU
think il out in advance. In this way the fundamental
American principles in this war we're presented TO the
mass of the people.
In some places there was q disposition 10 make fun
of the -Four Minute Men, as fellows who liked 10 hear
chance to get publicity and a conspicuous position.
But when we want public work done, we can't stop
TO analyze the motives OF those who do it. The people
who go ahead and do things are OF much more use in the
community than those who stand back and criticise.
In most cases the -Four Minute Men were patriotic
citizens who would much rather have sat quiet in their
seats and let some one else talk. They knew some one
had TO take up the work of presenting the American
cause to the people. and they went ahead and did it.
I'VE need Four Minute Men for purposes other than
conveying war spirit. Some good community enterprises
languish because the people do not understand them
The -Four Minute Men should be a permanent organiza-
ton with representatives everywhere. whose duty il
should be 70 present philanthropies and town improve

RpE BEFORE GRUB.

There is one German newspaper that has correctly
sized up the situation that is confronting Germany and
suggested the policy that will soonest place that country
upon a basis Of comfort and prosperity. The newspaper
is the Berlin Vossische zeitung and it points out the fact
that il is useless for the German people TO complain
about the harshness Of the terms of The armistice and
to plead for food until they get busy and establish a
stable government.
For the first time. n that quarter there appears to
be recognition OF the fact that the terms OF the armis-
tce required the establishment OF order in Germany as
precedent 10 the fulfllment Of allied pledges concern
ing assistance. The allies are yery much concerned in
the preservation of Germany from a state OF anarchy and
If the pledge Of food and material assistance will not IN
duce the German people 70 quickly set their house in
order that they may take their place among the nations
of the world. then they possess fewer Of the basic vr.
tues than their former enemies gave them credit for.
The Vossische zeitung expresses confidence thai
the allies will not break their word and concludes that
the remedy lies ID fastening the assembling of the ma
tional convention. but the last moment has come and
energetic action is urged if Germany is to save herself
This is sound advice, bur whether it will get a hear

EVEN THE FLOWERS.

People, when asked four dollars for a handful OF
carnations and from five 70 six dollars for a little pot OF
cyclamen, have been amazed at the prices of flowers. ana
II is explained BY the Christian Science Monitor. which
says that never. since greenhouses were introduced int
the present time. Many people are remarking this fact.
some with a disposition 10 criticize the producers and
the florists as ~prohteers. The true explanation goes back
10 the supposed coal shortage a few months ago, when
the greenhouse men had their normal fuel supply Gu
onehaf- This meant shutting down 50 per cent of the
houses, with a corresponding loss in production. II is
safe to say that the flower growers are feeling az un
comfortable over the situation as are their customers
for they are making less profit than when flowers sold
for about half as much as now. Nor are they made hap
pier BY being told that there is plenty of coal.

HE GOT OFF EASY.

One reason why SO many people have so little re-
spect for the law is plainly seen in the case Of Frank
Green. an alleged Gary dip, who has escaped justice after
forfeitng an $500 bond in the Hammond city court.
The day before Christmas, Green was arrested when
accused Of stealing $4,000 from an ignorant and guilele5s
Indiana Harbor foreigner. Notwithstanding the fact
that he was charged with stealing $1,000 Green's bond
was fixed ar a little over a third Of that amount. II
Green was guilty he made a nice little piece of money
all OF which the Indiana Harbor foreigner paid. II cost
Green $500 TO furnish bond and 5000 for his lawyer.
That made a thousand dollars, but he still bad a thou
sand dollars left il he stole the money. and nobody is out
but the state of Indiana and the foreigner
Naturally, a layman, knowing nothing about the law,
wonders why his bond was fixed so low when he was
charged with stealing 50 large a sum.
And it IS Just such practices as these that give peo-
pic contempt for what is a noble profession.
