DR.. BRIGGS TO
BE SPEAKER AT
LOCAL CHURCH

DR.. A. H. Briggs, state superin-
tendent of the California Anti-Sa-
loon league, will speak in the
Methodist church, Ell Centro, Sun
day morning, March 13 on "Prohib-
ition in 1882.
DR.. Briggs is editor of the Cali
fornia Liberator, the state publica-
ton of the league, and also a
member of the national board of
strategy which represents the dry
organizations of the country. DR..
Briggs is thus specially qualified to
speak on the prohibition situation.
Church people need to know the
facts and the implication of the
facts; and this is true of every
person eager to be an efficient citi-
zen. The year 1882 will witness a
titantic attack on the Eighteenth
Amendment. 1t will be a real pa
triotic ministry to extend as widely
as possible an invitation to come
to his service" says Rev. w. E..
Malan, pasor of the church.

this corporation is its psychologi-
cal effect and that effect cannot
be gained unless the public is told
something about it. He doesn't
stand for unrestrained publicity,
but does want some. Meyer, on the
other hand, is strongly against
publicity of any kind. That's the
way he operated the federal re-
serve board and he would apply
the same rule to the finance cor
poration.
The disagreements in the board
meetings should not be over
emphasized. They are no more
serious than those which occur in
the directors meetings of most
aggressive institutions. They rep
resent no serious breaks among
the members.

UNCLE WIGGILY AND THE
MOON MAN

Once upon a time Uncle Wiggily
was shopping around in the woods
looking for an adventure. He had
left his hollow stump bungalow
early in the morning and had
taken his pink, twinkling nose with
him for he couldn't very we'll leave
it behind.
II wonder what will happen to
me today?' thought Uncle Wiggily
as he sat down to rest on a snow
covered log, after he had hoped 4
mile or two. Yesterday I had an
adventure with the baby pigs pink
cap which the Fox and Bob Cat
thought was my pink nose in the
snow. But I wonder what will hap
pen today?"
Not thinking much about what
he was doing, Uncle Wiggily
picked up some snow from the
log, made the white crystals into
a ball and threw it at a bush not

NOT EXACTLY 4 JOKE

"DRACTICAL iokers" are notorious for
their cruelty, but it is difficult to
thing of anything more cruel than the
wretch of this species who inserted a
fake advertisement offering work to un-
employed men, in q Los Angeles news
paper.
The advertisement stated work paying
SIS to $40 day would be given to % un-
employed men. Twice that number re-
sponded to the call, only to learn that
there was no work to be obtained
1t is easy to picture the eagerness of
these men in answering the advertise.
ment. many of them no doubt having
families and not having had work for
long time. 1t is pitiful even to think
of their disappointment when they real
lied that their hopes were false.
That the advertisement was supposed
to have been inserted by the mayor of
small town, who was thus made the in
nocent victim of the hoax, indicates that
politics may have had a hand in it. Pol
itics at best is dirty mess, but we hard
ly thought it could be as mean and con-
temptible as this.
The newspaper accepting the adver-
tisement IS not entirely without blame.
Certainly in these days every advertise
ment offering work to the needy should
be carefully checked before it is accept
ed
1t is easy to breed radicals from Incl
dents such as this, for a disillusioned
and bitter man can hardly be blamed
for listening to the words of the Com
munist and his ilk.
The party responsible for the "ioke"
can hardly be classed with the small an
imal which has black fur and a white
stripe down its back, for that little ami
NAL, after all, is thoroughly decent.

of these trees that the parachute decided to land
him, not violently but rather gently in among

begged, but he looked ridiculous that Mays

At that moment the parachute which had

that you've jumped, Fenderton, is it?" and then
she giggled. But guess it's the first job you've
jumped with parachute, isn't it, Fenderton?"
Yeah, guess so,' said Fenderton. Il guess
it's the first job ever resigned that way"
Because after all, he hadn't been kicked out

and laughed.
