SNOW BRINGS MANY
new PROBLEMS TO
LINEMEl

Storm conditions which covered
the San Bernardino Mountains with
four feet of snow, with wind, sleet
and rain as variants, caused the in
terruption on the Southern Sierras
Power Company line to the Imperial
Valley between $3.50 a. m. Monday
and 2 p. m. Tuesday.
Snow to an extent unprecedented
except in the memory Ct the Oldest
settler, brought in its train disabili-
ties and breakdowns to wire COM
municat;on and traffic, of annual oc-
curance in the blizzard-swept East,
but from which the southern portion
Of California has heretofore been re-
garded as exempt.
A simultaneous failure of the tele-
phone lines made the break in the
power line difficult to localize. 1t
was found after an exhausting battle
with snow on the summit between
Yucaipa and Banning. A crew of ex-
perienced men from Riverside head
quarters encountered four feet Of
snow on the level places with double
that depth in drifts, and of such a
texture that snow-shoes proved un-
availing.

For Immediate Consideration

Within sixty days after the PASS
age of those state laws made DOS
sible by the good roads amendment
more than a thousand men with .
thousand teams were patrolling Min
nesota roads.
From then Minnesota roads b1gar
to improve and that improvement
has continued until today they arc the
talk of the touring world.
1t was quick action that brought
these immediate results; quick acton
and good judgment in doing the hing
first that would bring the neces-
sary relief at once. The quick action,
was taken by C. NJ. Babcock, state
highway commissioner.
Mr.. Babcock now asks for some
more quick action by the state legis-
]ature and the people of Minnesota.
He asks for the sale of some of hose
road bonds authorized by the good
roads amendment in order that i'm
provements may be pushed with all
speed and the program of trunk nigh
way improvement may be fulfilled.
These are to be long time bonds.
They are to pass some of the expense
of building Minnesota roads along to
the coming generation which will
reap far more benefit from ;hem
than can ever be the portion of thi
generation
Mr.. Babcock is entitled to the i'm
mediate consideration of his sugges
tion and. it ought to be adopted
Brass Tacks and Gas Tax
There is a growing sentiment in
favor Of a nominal tax on gasoline
used by motorists. In the last yea:
the fame of Minnesota's highway sy.
stem has spread over the entire
country. and thousands Of tourists
have been attracted from other
states. They enjoy the use Of Mime
sofa roads, and would willingly pay
| small tax to aid in their mintenance
and upkeep. It. is regarded as Ger.
tain that the next legislature will
| provide some form Of tax on gaso
line consumed.

LEARN HOW TO FORGET

DE ASSURED that you will some
- times be wronged; often hated.
Unless you have far more luck than
most men, others will injure you, and
despitefuly use you.
The more successful you are, the
more you will suffer from the dislike
and the envy of others.
But if you resent every injury and
nurse every spite, you will have little
time for anything else.
Revenge may be sweet, but it is
too expensive to be indulged
The man who makes up his mind to
''get even' with every one who has
harmed or insulted him maps out
difficult life for himself
Hatred is Il passion which destroys
the Judgment as we'll as the soul And
Judgment is too difficult to acquire to
be frittereu away in fruitless brawls.
Learn to forget injuries and griev-
ancrS. Tlcy will harm YOU but little
if yGu dismiss them from your mind.
If you cherish their memory and brood
over them they will harm YOU even
more than the enemy who inflicted
hem ever believed it possible to harm
YOU.
Give men no reason to injurc YOU
rllcn if they insist upon doing so, de.
prive them OF any satisfaction in the
injury by not allowing it to trouble
you.
Peace of mind and serenity of spirit
are worth q great deal in this world
Go about with Il chip on your
shoulder and before very long some
one will knock ii Off And your at
tention will be distracted from what
ever YOU are doing by your effort to
punish him for it,
But when you are Wantonly insulted,
or when your feelings are hurt re-
member that the person who offers
the nlfrOnt is not worth hating. Do
not tluttcr him by nursing your wrath
against him.
IrritatonS disturb the smooth work
ing IF your brain and cut into your
sleep. Forget them and you will be
happier and better able to attend to
your own job, which is getting all out
of your brain that was put there by its
Creator.

STATE POLICE PATROL URGED
Bill to Create System to Be Offered
1923 Legislature.

Minneapolis-A bill to create pa
troll system over Minnesota's trunk
highways which would guard the
states property and supplement activ-
tiles of police and sheriffs' forces in
apprehending criminals is practically
sure of being put before the Legisla-
ture at the coming session.
The plan would be unlike the pro.
posed state constabulary, since the
force of men would operate directly
under the State Highway department
and would be used primarily to con.
troll traffic over the highways.

A LINE O. CHEER
BY John kendrick Bange.

TIME
No NATTER what the wise
l. man says,
Time does not pass at all,
But ever right beside us stays
All ready for our CALL
Our clocks may run, and age count
To, many and many year,
But Time stands by with brimming
cup,
STILL calm and ever near.
At any hour of day or night,
In lowly place or high,
In days of trouble or delight,
He's always standing by
With lavish gifts of minutes fair
Ready for us to use,
To waste or treat with proper care
According as we choose.
