GET BEHIND BOY SCOUTS

Interest has been revived locally here In Lomita In the Boy Scout movement and next Monday night there will be an entertainment given In the Lomita Hall by th home troop, assisted by San Pedro Troops. There will be some promin­ ent speakers present and the "Camp Kite" will he taken up for consld ration. Few of us realiy under­

stand the benefits of the training given hoys who become scouts, and the beneficial results that follow the individuals through life. Court records show that a small per cenl of criminals come from members of the boy scouts, this one thing alone being worthy of support from us all First the boys are taught courtesy kindness to the aged. Ilrst-nid rein edles, how to build camp fires, find most Important of all to rely upon hrtnself. which means "finding ones self."

TOO MUCH HATE

We see a press dispatch fron Washington to the effect that upon his return from a tour of Europe Senator McCormick declares tlia' hate, distrust and envy are doitU' more to hold back nations ove- there than anything else. Kacl week some new topic sprung froi: which European nations glean , new spirit of hate for each other.

There are people right here in thl; lown of the opinion that anotlio sreat war wi<l be fought within t'.i :iext five or six years. Others d not agree, hut. frankly admit tli world Is a long way from peace Scarcely any foreign nation is sat islied with the way territory wu parcelled out at the peace confer '.;nce. and each week sees new com plications arising. Thousands stll 'jelieve this would have been aci justed if America had taken a mon prominent part in the league, an' thousands of others do not think si­ lt is largely a matter of polilica opinion.

But no matter how we may thin' along this line we are forced I :igree that war has left the wurl. with too much hate and distrust an rfnvy; in its heart. Nations are n different from individuals, and v. know that Individuals who distru: their fellowman come to no gooi end. So the nation which refuse o forget its hates, lay aside i 1 ;nvy and trust its nefghbor is du 'or trouble sooner or later. 1 would seem to be a pretty good tlin> for the United States In the t'ace o ill things now going on in 11> world, to follow the old adage "Trust in the Lord and keep you gowder dry."

CURE FOR SNORING

We have jusl read In an easteri paper a remedy for snoring. Tin writer says this remedy consist: solely In sleeping without a pillow He doesn't explain why that wil cure snoring, and neither docs h guarantee it to do so. But he oft'or the advice, and hopes H will be hel] 'ul to the good wife who says he husband snores so much that sii can't sleep In the same room will liQin.

Snoring is a sort of confident!;] affair. At least it is seldom Indulg ad in In public. But the truth Is it Is so prevalent hardly a home ca- ')e found In which snoring does no !>lay a part In the domei.tlc fellcll. or infelicity

And still you can't tinil a man o u woman who will openly admi they snore In their sleei . No on Is conscious of It, of course, for n is asleep at the time, .nd in hi waking hours he will iOt bellev the statements that he baa alinos "raised the roof." If he ! proddei In the ribs and to to tu: a over. In grows angry and resent* the Imn tation that he was snoring at ul But If the absence of pJlows wil' as the Eastern writer claims, stop the evil and it certainlj IB an evi: to those who have to listen to it then by all means throw the pillo\V n the trash barrel, or give them t>

the kids to light with. The cur would be worth several hundroi' times the original cost of a fev. pillows.

It is no longer necessary lo lool under the. bad for a T>urglar. Hi may be sitting in the parlor..

According to the hihle, it tool Joshua to make the sun stand still but almost anybody can make : moonshine still.

Before praising the biscuit, tli wise man wlll'llrst Ilnd out whetli er or not the neighbors Kent then Id.

Another reason why most nation fear to fight America Is they luiv. seen Homo of our movie actors h bUuotlus acruueti oil, the 'surcen.

The blank look seen on the fact- of many of our cltUens these day- were caused by the thin.-, we cal' an Income' tu\ blank.

We've always noticed that tin man who wastes the most tlnn uuually aitH around and broods ovei the time be bun already wauled.
