Mr.. and Mrs. Jas. S. Johnston
gave a most delightful party at their
home on Friday evening, in compli-
ment to their son, Master James, in
celebration of his 18th birthday.
Some 18 of his playmates responded
to the invitation and a royal time
they had, base ball being the prin-
cipal amusement, though much merri-
ment was had by all in the blind-fold
contest of pinning the tail on the
donkey. The prize for this achieve
ment was awarded to Master Bev-
erly Baxter. Delicious refreshments
were served and as the evening sun
was low the little men thanked their
host for delightful evening and ex-
pressed the fervent wish that he may
live to enjoy many more such happy
occasions.

MATTER BY pR. FRANK CRANE SCopyright, 1921. by Frank Cransy

The idea of the baseness of Matter is very old
 It turks in most of our minds for it has been n- bred for many generations
 The fact is however, that Matter is quite pure holy and divine as Spirit God made them both, and "what God hath made call thou not common"
 All early thought, whether in Greek philosophy in the ancient theories of Egypt 1ndia and China functioned in sort of scorn of material things.
 The Orient went so far as to deny Matter any ex istence at all. It is maya -delusion. And recent popular religious cults have rejuvenated this old idea What the newest sect is the very oldest revived
 The real New Thought that is the newer point of view is that brought about by Modern Science and the scientific method.
 The old idea of law was sense of something out side and above exacting compelling force upon what is inferior and beneath.
 The newer idea Is that law Is something inherent in things.
 The old idea had its parallel and model in the social system, which system of caste. The com mon people were dirt, Matter, and were to be guided and moulded and ruled by their betters the nobles and kings.
 Earth which was gross and base, then the Sun and Moon then the Stars and finally the Ether each success sively higher and purer.
 Theology followed this model We are all sinners. The earth is wicked place. If we are saved 1t IS as Brands from the Burning. scheme of thought It is asserted that there is hgh no low, in Nature The same law holds everywhere, shaping teardrop as it shapes sun.
 The Earth is as pure as any other actual body, for they are all made of the stuff the spec trum shows.
 the suburbs; but the suburbs good any other place.
 In other words, as modern philosopher writes the mission of Science has been ito substitute democ racy of individual facts equal in rank for the feuda system of classes of unequal rank -
 We awakening to realize that coos m ,l ns World" He is not above His world And He IS work ing in the innitesmal atom, as well as Tn the heaven of heavens.

SLUMP IN SWISS CHOCOLATE

Chocolate has long been almost necessity to Americans. consumption of the product in the form of drinks, cakes and candies being truly As it is highly concentrated nourishment, the armies of both the allies and the central given liberal supplies of 1t during the Switzer land did enormous business in this line.
 But today the foreign market for Swiss chocolate is unfavorable and, in the opinion of leading tial improvement in the future. The domestic market isr therefore, glutted, not only with the finished product, but also with the materials beans and condensed milk. The chief factor behind the general demoraizaton is that central and eastern European countries have almost entirely stopped buying Swiss chocolate. The former Russian and Austro- Hungarian empires, the Balkan states and the Levant were all large consumers before and during the but the present poor economic and disturbed political conditions coupled with unfavor able exchange practically eliminated these former important markets

In Ninsteen pays

What the right kind of man can do with his off. his sleeves rolled up and clothed with determination is told by the Philadelphia Public Ledger:
 Nineteen days after Charles G. Dawes Director of the Budget. took off his coat and waded in he announced that savings amounting to s112.51262ss2 will be effected this fiscal year if departments will follow the plans laid down.
 We have known public officials who would have than chosen a stenographer. picked the cool est in the office and interviewed the chief clerk in nineteen days. This dynamo out of Chicago has shown the way to the American taxpayer some thing like $so0o0o0 for every day that he has the job.
 The country will like certain inferences that he draws He infers that it will be assumed hereafter that no department will feel that 1t is necessary expend the minimum amount of money appro- priated for its He infers also that business administrators of the government been diverted from too-easy reliance the custom of deficen- appropriations. His third inference Is that when money is granted in the future it is to be used the possible advantage that when possible the job shall be done for less than the amount authorized
 we beginning to get somewhere in this governmental economy campaign"
 But that by means all the saving the director planned. By his order the sale by any de-
 
 property is stopped. pending the organization of system whereby the disposition of property may be controlled This order affects all classes of property except pershable goods owned by the gov- ernment and in the hands of any department bureau depot.
 At the same time this order issued, orders were issued for all government purchasing agents supply officers and others in charge of government property to make inventory of material hand and report the to the budget bureau. At the same time order issued for all departments needing supplies to file their acquisitions with the budget bureau. The immediate result of this will be the saving of millions of dollars year-it is esti- mated $100.o00.o00 the first year.
 Under the new arrangement inventory of all surplus property held by any department will be in the hands of the budget bureau well all requ- sitons for supplies from all departments.

Packing Industry
 Completing Post
 War Adjustment
IRepubIIcan A. P. Leased wIrel

CHICAGO, Aug. S-The packing industry has about completed it's postwar readjustment and the posi- ton of both producer and packer should rapidly improve. Thomas F. Wilson, president of the Institute of American Meat Packers. told hum dreds of packers from all sections of the country in opening the three day annual convention here today.
 MT Wilson presented survey of TO non-packer industries which he compared with a survey of packing companies to show that the non packers did less than four times as much business as the packers and made more than 100 times as much profit. The packing companies sur veyed earned profits of s7,21S.0s2 on an investment of approximately s59o. 100000 and sales of s3.013. o02. 900, he said.
 He also presented a table to show price declines in wholesale meat products during the past year, rang ing from Is per cent to 47 per cent. Practically all by-products are lower than in 1913, he asserted.
 The per capital consumption of meat and lard in the United States in 1920 was 1543 pounds. as compared with 163.3 pounds in 1918, represent ing a potential loss of 1865, 5,o0o, 900 pounds, he said.

The Wreck of the Alaska

Notwithstanding it's name, the Pacific, there is no more treacherous water than that along the northern stretch of coast of the western continent Nowhere else in the world have many ships gone down within short space of tme That is due in part, suppose. to the character of the ships used in that trade. Many of them less sea- worthy and some them have been brought into the Pacific coast after having been rejected in the Atlantic trade
 Many of north Pacific wrecks have been piainly the result unserviceabe vessels, wrecks in which treacherous coasts played m mart at all. few years ago tTans-Pacific vessel inward bound sank in the very Golden Gate.

 name of this girl and added that
 Kennedy was attacked some time ago by two men as the result of his acquaintance with the unnamed wo- man. She said she had written to
 Ralph Obenchain. Chicago attorney, her former husband. and hoped he would come to Los Angeles in few days.
 Mrs. Obenchain said she was posi- tive there were two men. neither or

 announced plans for an inquest over the body of Kennedy. They said they hoped to gather some evidence l before fixing the time. Tn the mean time the only charge against Burch ] was suspicion of murder and Mrs | Obenchain continued to be held as
