Twenty Years Ago .
Twenty years ago, almost to a day, the United States declared war on Germany and the Central Powers. It was the
will of the nation. On that fateful April 6 of 1917, all were
convinced that it was our solemn duty to help save the world
for democracy, to help fight the war to end wars.
So the bands played, the people cheered and waved flags,
and the boys marched off to the battlefields of France. They
didn’t know about shrieking shells and the stabbing pain of a
shrapnel wound, about the mud and stench and slaughter of
war, and the agony of dying.
Neither did we—then.
Today we know the WorldWar dealt death to 54,000 of
our young men, and wounds to 190,000 more. It brought on
the ravages of depression. It left us poorer to the extent of 12
billion dollars in uncollectable debts. Out of it grew the forces that caused democracies to collapse, that sent nations at
each cthers’ throats again.
Twenty years ago we had not guessed that this would be
the aftermath. Twenty years ago we had not seen men come
home blinded or unable to walk, or with lungs ruined from
breathing gas; we had not known the sorrow of wives and
mothers and friends and relatives.of youths who didn't come
back.
Today we have seen these things; and have not forgotten.
If one senses the temper of the nation aright, America
would ficht to defend its shores and its homes. But to send our
men and money and goods to foreign battlefields again—no.
Never again. :
We have not forgotten. May we never forget. — Contributed.
Just Wondering .
I wonder why Joyce Kilmer called
Poor verse purveyors fools,
But failed to tell us how to choose
And utilize our tools;
] wonder if the reason why
His words were so complainy
Was just because he’d never read
The poems of King Zaney.
. wonder how many of us find delight in the art of King
Zaney. The world is beating a pathway to the desert lean-to
wherein he is so gallantly striving to regain health and win
success. True poet, intrepid soul, here’s to you King Zaney;
may your star of hope grow brighter with every passing hour.
I wonder where in the world a case of suspended judgment may be found. Everyone everywhere blames everybody
else for everything, and begins tirading, before anyone anyae erage ik WOMEN’S

COURT PLAN
HANFORD, April 5.—-Mrs. W. D.
James of Hanford, President of the
California Federation of Women's
Glubs, today aligned herself with the
army of Americans who are fighting
against any Congressional or Presidential tampering with the Supreme
Court of the United States.
Declaring that ‘‘the Tribunal must
not be permitted to become the tool
of any one man no matter how high
his ideals,’’ she asked, in a public
statement, that the proponents of
the Roosevelt plan ‘‘let the people
speak that we may still be a government of the peovle, for the people,
and by the people.”
Her statement follows:
“There has come a time in the. affairs of our nation when we must

the welfare of every citizen. Foo
many of us fail to appreciate what
we have in our form of government
as provided by the Constitution of
the United States.
“That great document, with its
three divisions of government—+the
legislative, the executive and judicial, protects every citizen regardless
of his social or economic status. For
one hundred and fifty years it has
kept us safe and sound.
“Tf change is needed to meet the
changing social and economic conditions, a method is provided in
Constitution for making any alteration the people want.
“It is the duty of the © United
States Supreme Court to interpret
the Constitution, and I sincerely believe that. this tribunal must not be
permitted to become the tool of any
one man no matter -how high his
ideals. Therefore I would say, let the
people speak that we may still be a
government of the people, for the
people and by the pedople.”’
THIS HAPPENED
INDEAR DEAD
HALCYON DAYS
To those who send up a long wail
for the ‘‘good old. days when working was a pleasure,’ this excerpt
from ‘‘“Employees’ Rules ofa Chicago
Department store in the 1880’s”’ noted in the Rotarian Magazine is presented: :
1. Store must be open from 6 a.
m. to 9 p. m. the year around.
2. Store must be swept, counters, shelves, and showcases dusted;
lamps trimmed, filled, and chimmeys
cleaned; pens made; doors and windows opened; a pail of water and a
hucket of coal brought in, before
breakfast. (If there is time to do so,
attend to customers who call)
3. The store must not be opened
on the Sabbath unless necessary and
then ‘only for a few minutes.
4. The employee who is in the
habit of smoking Spanish cigars, -being shaved at the barber’s, going to
our
where can explain anything, to anybody. What did Shakespeare once say about being, “bethumped with words? He}
should be living now when we all have free flowing yocabular.
ies. . :
I wonder is something isn’t amiss with the “‘nine old’
men.” Think of refusing retirement with ‘full pay—their; pay!
‘Think of rejecting leisure for travel, reading, gardening, calm
meditation and the placid twiddling of thumbs! Perhaps these
worthy gentlemen should be psycho-analyzed.
I wonder at the strange incongruity of Easter services
conducted on a battle front.I wonder when the spring time vandal will begin to gather wild flowers, root, branch and bulb, toss lighted matches to
the four winds of heaven and shoot game out of season.
I wonder how long it takes a dollar spent fifty miles from
' fere to roll back to Nevada County.
I wonder if the following couplet is a proper gauge where
by to measure mental attitude:
“For when . scorned and hated, . was wrong,
But when I loved and pitied, . was right.”
