LOCATION or A FARM SCHOOL

scheme Is or -ooj to establish AGRICULTURAL
college in Los Angeles as an adjunct to the southern
Branch of the University Of California.
The plan is to offer as site for such proposed
farm school tract Of go acres to be taken from the

legislation by Congress, If possible.
Opposition to the Los Angeles project IS beng

had already been made al Riverside. In protest
against the present Los Angeles plan a large ana

of 800 acres which was purchased and which the state

the first instance to procure farm school Tor Sout-
ern California and helped to locate the project at
Riverside This was likewise done IN every southern
county It was therefore quite natural and logical that
the recent San Bernardno meeting should voice the
vigorous protest it registered.
What Los Angeles seeks to do is to have the board
of university regents nuly the action Of the legsa-
ture and give that city the proposed institution 1t
claims however that it is not asking for what Rll-
erside has; but that is quite the fact, for It Is
wholly improbable that kinds OF farm schools. or
that two farm schools Of any kind will be established
in Southern California.
Perhaps the most serious phase of this whole mat
ter lies in the tremendous financial and political power
of a great city. 1t set aside laws and dominate
every situation If Los Angeles nulIieS the clear pur-
pose and plain law to establish farm school at Rlv-
erside, what may it not do at some future time to
thwar the rights and ambitions OF Ell Cenro and In
perial Valley?
This is a problem touching the very foundation of
government.

More Truth Than Poetry

TRUE HAPPINESS

TRUE HAPPINESS
The ape lithely leaps from bamboo
to bamboo
Or depends from cocoanut tree,
Which is all of the work that an ape
has to do
For a fortunate creature is he.
The life that he leads has no system
or plan
But nature has taught him to love
And if he were told he descended
from man
He would probably answer: what
of it?"
"As long as I'm here" it is likely he'd
say,
"And abundance of food can be had
Why should what I have been in an
earlier day
Make me troubled or anxious or sad ?
Together with thousands of monks of
my breed
I am happily casting my lot here,
And as long as I'm happy, 1 cannot
concede
That it matters a bit now L got
here"
We do not defend this unreasoning
brute
Or bestow upon him any praise.
To us it would seem but futile pur-
suit
To leap through the trees all our
days.
AS onward through earthly existence
he goes,
Content with his lot and his station,
One has to admit that the anthropoid
shows
A spirit of broad liberation.
But because we can't swing from a
cocoanut limb,
But must stick to the old daily
grind,
The thought that we may be descended
from him
Makes us dreadfully low in our
mind
In meaningless chatter his days may
be spent,
His life may be utterly aimless,
But if he is always profoundly con-
! We must own that his logic IS
blameless.
