Soon vegetation was restored and it was again a land of sunshine and flowers, with the same rush of pleasure seek ing activities.

Claremont, six miles sway, 1 the seat of Pomona college and a quaint town with striking individuality. With Its setting In the San Antoine valley, Burrounded by magnificent mountains snow crowned, It attracts a class of cultured people, who have seen much of the world and bring with them something greater than wealth. "Pasadena Is a city of palatial homes, and its directory is a roster of well known names. J -" -i - '; r Los Angeles is happiest when her streets are thronged with tourists.

How ever, It is a most Hospitable city and we spent seven delightful weeks there. ,One of the most wonderful days was spent crossing Mohave Desert. The desert was a misnomer, for it was gor geous with bloom.

The Women's Political Science club had the' pleasure of listening, at ru meeting Tuesday, to a few minutes talk by James H.

He spoke for about half an.';",'"' hour and the audience asked questions ' for an hour afterwards. , . Amhg other things Mr, U'Ren said the American plan of government by checks and balances worked fairly welt, so long as the only business of ths - state was to protect the Individual from personal violence. Rut with the change ' , in the economic system and In the Ideals ; of the people, the old plan has broken down at every point. Government cannot be mado efficient ' and '"economical in operation until ' It la organized on ths two fundamental prln- ' ciples on which all other successful co operative business is built, " First, for the making of the rules , and the laws of the business. It Is' im possible to have too many minds. Second, for the execution of the laws there should be one mind, and only one. . That one must appoint his own assist ants and be directly respopsible for all ' their acts. The speaker Insisted that It Is the . duty of the people to make and enforce such laws that every person shall earn " every dollar he gets and shall get every " dollar he earns. He said that many " men get rich by law and not by labor. The people can abolish the1 laws by ' which soms men get rich through ex ploiting the labor of others. , G. A. R.
