Los Angeles, March is, 1920.

Los Angeles, Marcn 10, lSzV.
The Canon City Record. Canon City,
Colorado.
Gentlemen-First of all, don't take
me the wrong way. I'm not going to
knock dear old Canon City-I wouldn't
do that for the world. -Canon's all
right, and so is Colorado. I've uoth-
ing against them or you folks back
there, but I've just stood your trying
to kid yourselves into believing that
you've something on California about
as long as l can without blowing up.
don't remember ever reading an
issue of The Record that didn't tell
about So-and-So returning from Cali
fornia and reporting the weather cold,
or rainy, or otherwise disagreeable.
You birds aren't happy unless you're
Iambasting California. At midnight of
the coldest day in Los Angeles last
winter / read an unprotected ther-
mometer, and its figures were 40 de-
grees above zero. If Canon City can
beat that, come on with the figures.
ne DlOOulln lOullslS plCh
on out brief rainy season for a trip to
California and then they go back and
say: at rained all the time" and
then The Record comes out with a
headline that says: "It Rains Every
Day in California" or something to
that effect. The truth of the matter is,
think it's quite conservative state
ment when I say that I've seen more
sunshine in my four years in Califor-
MIA than saw in my eight years res
idence in Colorado.
Then, too, we don't go round always
with our eyes full of dust and sand
and wind shrieking in our ears. We
don't have those maddining gales three
times in a year-350 times would
scare Californian to death, and yet
some of us have survived them.
Now, we all like Congressman
Hardy. He's fine chap. II were
back there I'd vote for him in min
ute. Why, bless his heart, If it hadn't
been for a contest that he pulled on
in 1915 that brought me to the land
OF sunshine and flowers, I'd still un-
doubtedly think that Colorado was the
best place on earth.
Well, to get down to business again.
Mr.. Hardy says he knows that when
it's bad day in Colorado it's worse
everywhere else in the United States.
can't just recall what kind of in
door work I've always indulged in on
those occasions.
You folks may tell them that you've
got the best climate in the world. and
get away with it-in Michigan or
North Dakota-but it doesn't go a-tall
in California.
OF course you won't publish this
it's the "other" side, but as Just a
little ipece of friendly advice, man to
mani believe you'd gain more if you'd
forget about the bad" weather in CAL
ifornia and spend all your time boost
ing the good" weather in Colorado.
Yours truly,
HERBERT o. MAAS.

to lift prices to a new and higher
level which must continue for years.
Despite these facts we must try to
curb these Influences rather than
stimulate them. We must seek to save
the producer of the golden eggs in
stead of ripping wide open the goose,
hoping to get a basketful at one
sweep. Let the conservative influ-
ences Of the country, the sober lead
ers of Americas trade and industry,
discredit every profiteer who by exor-
bitant profits robs his customers and
his country, and robs himself of his
own self-respect, whether he be the
small or the big business leader, the
Millionaire corporation executive or
the proprietor of the small country
sawmill, the millionaire store or the
ietic COiuch Siocciy.
1t behooves everyone to realive
that unless he can honestly say that
he has treated every customer, every
employee and every competitor exact
ly as he would wish they would treat
him, he is not honest at heart nor is
he following the only rule ever given
to mankind which would insure per-
manent peace and prosperity.
The Golden Rule is the only safe
foundation on which to build charac-
ter or business, or nations. In pro-
portion to its observance is there
peace and prosperity or chaos in life
and in business. - Manufacturers

THE ONLY SAFE FOUNDATION

Every intelligent business man who
wants to see long years of prosperity
bles sour land and create permanency
of employment for labor and for cap
ital should take heed to the dangers
which attend the high profits Of the
hour.
Business men must realize that the
thought which finds expression, "Get
all you can, while the getting is good"
is dishonest in spirit and destructive
in its effect. We know that it is very
difficult to resist piling on the prices
when people are ready to buy any
thing and everything, from silk shirt
to a ton of iron, at any price named !;
we know that the law Of supply and
demand cannot be set aside by mans
whims for any great length of time
and that only through measured pro-
duction, which spells prosperity, or
decreased consumption, which opens
the gate to the land of poverty, can
the upward trend of prices be per-
manently halted. Nevertheless, many
manufacturers and dealers are do
ing their utmost to demand unholy
profits, and are thus boosting prices
beyond all reason and endangering
their own and the country's continued
prosperity. The sensible men of sound
Judgment should do their utmost to
counterfeit this condition. even at the
expense of smaller profits now.
The worlds demand for many
things, the world initiation which was
inevitable as an outcome of the war,
more than cutting the dollars pur-
chasing over in half; our unwise in
come excess profits tax, our perma-
nently high cost of food, all combine

Miss Rebecca Averill, of Frankfort,

vile, both committee chairmen Of the

their arguments from a woman's

badly needed for that reason. Mrs.

Der of the Housing Committee of the

Of the great housing problem in Lou

Of the human aspects of the bill. Mr..

KEEP SWEET

Losing the temper takes all the
sweet, pure feeling out of life. One
may get up in the morning with q
clean heart, full of song, and start
out as happy as bird, and the mo-
ment he is crossed and gives way to
temper the clean feeling vanishes;
and load as heavy as lead is rolled
upon the heart. Be the master OF
your temper and you hold the key to
joy and contentment.

knew that the other cities would want
just such a one. 1t is similar to the
present Tenement House law and de-
parts from it only in applying to one

Of the first, second, third and fourth
classes, rather than to cities of but
