There's a new Gen. Hugh S.
Johnson. Persons who haven It seen
him for some time are astounded
by the change. While he appears
healthier he lacks his old time keen
interest in every phase of NRA ac-
tivities. He is disinterested in many
angles indicating he is mentally at
tuned to leaving the place. He toss
es off many problems to Subordi-
mates now. He is more relaxed,
works fewer hours, and is more
philosophical.
House Democratic leaders won
admit it, but they wouldn't have
minded if some other Democrat had
beaten Rep. Charles V. Truax, for
the Democratic nomination for
congressman-at-large in Ohio. Tru-
ak caused the leaders no end of
trouble last session when private
bills were on the calendar. Truax
objected frequently to various min
or measures relating to individual
pension, accident compensation etc.
One objection can defeat one of
these "pet' bills. The house oc-
casionally was forced by members,
angry at Truax' tactics, to ad-
journ with little business done.

One of the scriptural citations in

verses from First Chronicles:
'"rhine, o Lord, is the greatness,
and the power, and the glory, and
the victory, and the majesty; for
all that is in the heaven and in
the earth is thine: thine is the
kingdom, o Lord, and thou art ex-

es and honour come Of thee, and
thou reignest over all; and in thine
hand is power and might; and in
thine hand it is TO make great, and
to give strength unto all. Now,
therefore, our God, we thank thee,
and praise thy glorious name"

CAREY AND HEALD

Two Imperial county office-seekers,
who are the envy of fellow-officeholders
because they have no worries despite the
impending primary election, are Walter
ID. Carey, auditor, and Elmer w. Heald
district attorney. Neither is opposed for
office, hence neither has any election
worries.
Carey is completing his fifth term as
auditor and will be returned by the vot-
ers for sixth term. Taking office
first in 1915 he has maintained an ex-
cellent record as a high type of public
official. This record can be summed up
in the phrase, ''he said nothing but sawed
wood AS county auditor he h con-
Quoted his department in an efficient
and businesslike manner and there seems
to be no reason why he should not re-
main in office as long as he chooses.
nigh invaluable to the county.
District Attorney Heald is finishing
his second term and will start his third
term in January A faithful and con-
cientious officer he has established him
self as an efficient prosecutor and he
has surrounded himself with a highly
capable staff of assistants who have CO.
operated with him fully in making his
two terms excellent successes.
With the possible exception of attor-
neys no other workers have a closer con-
tact with the county government than
newspaper representatives. 1t is their
job to observe, to ask and to watch.
If poll of valley newspapermen
could be taken it would undoubtedly
show that the offices of auditor and dis
trict attorney are "standouts" at the
court house in extending courtesy to
those doing business with them.
1t is not to be construed that these two
offices are the only ones where courtesy
prevails but it is prominent there. In
some of the county departments courtesy
is grievously lacking, not to newspaper
men, nor on the part of heads of de-
partments, but to the general public and
on the part of subordinates. Some minor
clerks at the court house could give les
sons in rudeness and uppishness to a
metropolitan theatre ticket seller
when they are dealing with the common
citizen who may not make very pre-
possessing appearance. Their superiors
do not know how much they are injured
in seeking reelection because they have
not taken the pains to instill into their
staffs that they are public servants and
not the bosses of the public.
1t is to be hoped that large compli-
mentary vote will be given to Carey and
Heald at the primaries. They deserve it,
not only because they are efficient Off
cials but also because they are instinc-
lively courteous and extend courtesy to
all

UNCLE WIGGILY'S LITTLE
PUSH

Once upon a time the Bob Cat,
with his silly little tail, stopped at
the dismal den where the Fuzzy
Fox lived and asked:
"Have you seen Uncle Wiggily
lately?"
"No, I haven IT, answered the
Fox. 81 have roamed the woods
and have run over the fields, up
hill and down dale, but I haven It
seen him.
"Neither have l." snarled the
Bob Cat. "But. I want to find
him. I'm going to hunt for him.
I'm hungry.
$50 am Il" growled the Fox.
"If you find Uncle Wiggily let
me know
81 will" promised the Bob Cat.
So he went hunting over the fields
and through the woods for the rab-
bit gentleman. But the hollow
stump bungalow was closed and no.
where could Uncle Wigglly be
found.
At last the Bob Cat saw a Worm

BED TIME STORIES
By HOWARD z. GARRIS
Copyright 1884 BY Mcclure Newspaper Syndicate)

"And there I'll find Uncle Wig
gily!o howled the Bob Cat. Here
go!' and this time he rushed
away, taking with him his silly lit
tie tail. Over the fields and through
the woods he ran, up hill and down
dale until he came to large body
Of water.
Must Be the Ocean
"This must be the Ocean where
Uncle Wiggily is,'' whispered the
Bad Chap. But when he leaned
over to taste the water it was
fresh. So he knew it could not be
the Ocean and he kept on.
Now about this time Uncle Wig
gily had put on his bathing suit
and had gone down to the beach
near his seaShore cottage to have
bath. He walked along the sand
thinking perhaps he might find a
pink shell he could sell to the Sea
Dog, but there was none in sight.
Then Uncle Wiggily waded out in
to the Ocean a little way and dip
ped himself under the salty water
Meanwhile the Bob Cat was COM
ing along lippity loppity stopping
at every body of water he saw to
lean over and taste it. But none
was salty, so he knew he had not
yet reached the Ocean. At last,
however, he saw before him such
a large body Of water, sparkling in
the sun, that he felt sure it was
the Ocean he was seeking.
"But I must taste it to make cer-
tain" he said to himself. So the
Bob Cat hoped through a little
woods of scrub pines and down
amid the sand dunes to the edge of
the beach.
Sea Was Calm
The sea was very calm just then.
There was no surf; just some little
ripping wayelets breaking on the
sand. The Bob Cat went very
close to the edge and leaned over
to taste the water to see if it were
salty. Just then Uncle Wiggily,
coming out from his bath, saw the
Bad Chap whose back was toward
IIS IdDDlJ.
ooh, my goodness. whispered
Mr.. Longears "the Bad Chap has
found where l am, but he hash It
seen me. If I can sneak up be-
hind him and give him a little push
he'll fall down in the water, get
some in his eyes and then he can It
see me run away And that IS just
what Mr.. Longears did Sneaking
softly up behind the Bob Cat, the
bunny gave him little push just
as the Bad Chap was bending down
to taste the water 1t was salty.
But moment later he fell in head
first and howled. He had all the
salt water he wanted, but he didn It
catch the bunny gentleman who
ran safely away. And if the spool
of thread will sit down and read
the paper Of pins, I'll tell you next
about Uncle Wiggily and the wad-
ing fox.

Mrs. Coletta Mulvihi Green is in need

Joy handling a story that it has been
given to her.
In fact, if we had the money, we'd
like to hire Jimmy Londos or Jack
Dempsey or some other big husky to give
her first class walloping.
The lady CD is an eastern socialite,
engaged to be married to some Spanish
grandee from the Philippines. This
week she was in Pittsburgh, awaiting his
arrival, wearing his engagement ring
and also ring with which their we'd
ding ceremony was to be solemnized
She caused something of a shock to
society by running away with a truck
driver and marrying him, using the we'd
ding ring given by the grandee for the
ceremony. Truck drivers will sometimes
forget themselves by marrying heiress-
es, and Mr.. Green should share some of
the blame of course
The shock society received by the af
fair was only mild one compared to the
next shock Mrs. Green launched bv saw
ing that she married the truck driver
on dare and it was "just lark" and
didn't count
i didn't think he was taking it anv
more seriously than | was," she is quoted
as saying. Perhaps he wasn't and
whether he was or not doesn matter
Marriage is considered a serious mat
ter by millions of people and neither
Mrs. Green nor Mr.. Green has any right
to treat it as lark. We can't say that
the lady has cheapened herself, for she
must have been cheap despite all her
fathers wealth before she ran away
with the truck driver. Nor could she
cheaper the marriage ceremony for it
is too far above her.
But she tried to cheaper it, and there
in lies her fault.
We hope Green can succeed in parting
ner father from considerable dough, we
wish the Spanish grandee would show a
little spirit and forget all about his i'm
pending wedding, and above all we hope
she gets the spanking she so badly needs,
but there is hardly chance for that.
