It is within the memory of most
of us that tho customary sleeping
attire of man was n nightshirt, a
sort of plain, ungarnished smock
that made 1 ono look r'dtculous
when confronting ' a . burglar. In
fact, It was wcll-nlgh Impossible to
feel proud or bold or even present
able In a nightshirt, and so it came
to be regarded as a shameful sort
of thing that no sclf-rcspcctlug
man ought tu allow himself to bo
seen In outside tho circle of his
Immediate family. Tho one and
very Justifiable object after put
ting It on was to turn out the
HkIhs as soon as possible.
Then came pajamas. The early
models were as plain us old-time
flivvers. Their advantage lay
chiefly In the fact that they were
cut In such a way that they cuuld
not work up around the neck, as
the nightshirt had a way of doing.
The opportunity to croato a mas

succeeding years -havo seen lm
provements and adjustments until
tho piijamus of today represent a
perfect expression of tho crafts

Tragically enough, the, shnme

LOS ANGELES f.
ANOTHER ONE of these cynical, atheistic, obscene nml wet
magazines, like Mercury, is noi coming off the press j
under the title of "nam unit.
Th Mnv ,,nUo, ,riw.imiL'..,l im l.v lpflflinr nff wifll i
foolish article ly Senator Wheeler on .Nieiiniifim, but just as
We were to throw the thinj; in the MaKteliaskct with a hearty
curse, our eye struck an article entitled "Los Aniicles, City of
Dreams."
Los Anccles,' as Rome of our readers know, licine; one of
our cherished aversions, we read what syc I'asadena reporter
had to say and immediately decided that the following para
graph alone was worth 35 cents:.' '
At the present moment Los Angeles may be doscribed in a
sentence. It Is the precise opposite of Ban Francisco. San Fran
cisco Is perhaps the most charming town In America. Los An
geles Is probably the most stupid. San Francisco Is old, proud,
romantic, civilized, conservative, cultured, buoyant, modest,
sorcne, tolerant and wine. Log Angeles Is Immature, gaudy,
blatant dull, radical, uncultured, boastful, Intolerant, provincial
and nouveau riche. , .
Here, In the last analysis, Is an artificial city which hag been
iumed up under forced draught, Inflated like a balloon, stuffed
with rural humanity like a goose with. corn, la common with
rnost other American cities. Los Angeles hag acquired ita popu
lutlnn largely from the farms and small towns, but there the
similarity ceases. Unlike other citlos, wheer- this process lias
been gradual and the subsequent assimilation painless, Los An
gel ch has lured the yokels so rapidly by the tinging of a ball
and the blowing of a horn that the town has never boon able
to catch up with Itself.. Endeavoring to cat up this too-rapid
avalanche of anthropoids the sunshine metropolis heaves and
strains like a boa constrictor swallowing a goat. Log Angeles
has never Imparted an urban churacter to Its Incoming rural
population for the simple reason that It has never had any
uiban character to Imixirt. On the other hand, the place Itself
has assumed the manners, culture and general outlook of a huge
country village.
Superficially and quantitatively Los Angeles Is a city. It has
stroot cars, tall buildings, much noise, heavy traffic, theaters,
department stores and hotels. Qualitatively it cannot be placed
In that category. A city, properly so-culled, requires more than
a mob of people, a chamber of commerce and modern plumbing.
A city Is a stnte of mind. A city, properly so-culled, requires
among other things some age and tradition, somo romance and
atmosphere, speed and form. A city requires a population com
posed largely of individuals accustomed to the marvels, terrors
and customs of urban life. They ixissess a feeling of conscious :
suiwrlority to the yaps. This is what Los Angeles docs not
possess. How could it? Ilor people as a whole are not yet
city broken. They do not think in terms of urbanity.
In brief, Los Angoles has now reached the full flower of
corn-fed adolescence. What It needs more than foreign trade or
factorlos Is simply to look In the glass. Some day It will catch
up with Itself mentally. When that time comes a great, vibrant
world metropolis, worthy of tho name, will be emerging as the
center of the Pan-Pacific area.
In other words, witli the few minor exceptions noted above.
Los Antrcles is n fine place.

as a r.trtor, trie necewmry pre
caution," probably meant .wearing
one's rubbera and keeping one's
;hont protector on, thene treacher
ous spring days.
That's about what the whole
thing nmountfl to.
A medical journal editor, refer
ring to the same announcement, ;
gives utterance to the porwimlnm
that In widely spread through ihe
medical and sanitary profemdona:
"The old fashioned measures of
Isolation and quarantine are Bt 111
effective In preventing" the spread
of colds of all forms. However,
the people almoHt unanimously
would resent an official quaran
tine of cases of colds; only a few
observe voluntary Isolation of colds;
even the campaign to 'cover coughs
and sneeaes' has had little effect
on the publfc." - '
This medical journal editor Is
right about it. But why this pes
simism? Well, maybe you can get
a dew from another quotation from
the name editorial article:
"The people are surfeited with
commonplace advice to keep the
feet dry and avoid draghte."
Far be it from me to inject per
sonalities into the discussion, as
the New York health commissioner
said I did at our last encounter,
but may I not fairly ask what
the health commissioner thinks
nbout this comment from tho New
York State Journal of Medicine?
Can It be that the editor suspects
the health commissioner's attitude
on wot feet is ridiculous?
Of course he people will resent
any official quarantine of "colds"
ns long as the health authorities
assure them that some "colds" arc:
not infectious.
The health authorities take
such pessimistic and lnclnslstcnt
nttltude . In reference to the pre
vention of diphtheria or smallpox,
although certain people do vigor
ously resent being quarantined or
Isolated with such disease.
The henlth authorities betray n
wenkneps here. They're in an em
barrassing predicament, thanks In
their obstlnney. old- fogylsm and
dogmatism. They have Incautious
ly committed themselves, on the
wrong Hide of the question as
everybody can now see, and they
prefer to let the thing drift
pasa the buck to the public, nny-i
thing rather than acknowledge that
thoy have made a mistake.
I urge the render to remember
this when his own child comes
home from nehool with measlct,
scarlet fever, whooping cough,
dlphthera, or what not, contracted
from some alleged "cold" the
health authorities admit to school.
Itemember It particularly when
some fiiMtian health officer has the
temerity to "warn the public"

To the Editor:
The grand Jury, after being In
HCHston for over a month lnvesti-
gating the expenditures of the pro
hibition fund, has flnnlly brought
an indictment against N. C. l.'ha
ney, district attorney. Involving the
supposed payment of $310 to an
undercover man by the ne re of
Wilkie; a little later we may see
fit to glvo you the pedigree of this
star witness before the grand Jury.
I have no disposition to criticize
the present grand jury; the mem
bers nro Jimong our very best
citizens and they have performed
their duty, no doubt, as they
saw it.
The great lengths to which the
grand Jury- Investigations nmV de
liberations have been carried on
the eve of election creates a feel
ing of uneasiness nnd unrest. When
n question affecting the public in
which the character, reputation
and standing of public officials

Is only one way tu cure It. and
that Is to get the subject out In

When Mr. Chaney was discharg

had a wife and family of small
children. Like hundreds of other
men just out of the service, and In
the same financial condition, he
had a hurd time to keep the

It was put Into the prohibition
volving fund, to be used In catch-
inn half a dozen more boolieggors.
Now here is how the account;
stands: Under the old system the
bootleggers won, the lawyers won.
the taxpayers lost. Under Chaney's
system tho boctleggers lose, the
lawyers lose, the taxpayers win.
Now what about this prohibition
fund that the crand Jury has been
I investigating? I have doubts aa to
whether they have any right under
the law to question its expenditure
beyond what the record shows In
the county treasurer's office. The
law authorizing this prohibition ac
count contemplated a secret fund
to be spent in a secret manner to
secure evidence, by the employ
ment of undercover men. Many
of these undercover men are crim
inals or near-criminals. They must
have Immunity, and they must
have the protection of secrecy.
You and I and the other so-called
good citizens never aid the officers
in securing evidence; in fact, I sus
pect that at least a small minority
of us are willing to see prohibition
law enforcement break down and
the officers hamstrung.
Now you and I know that
Newton Chaney had administered
this fund just as wan Intended by
the law that crcrAtd t This secret
fund has been used by Chaney to
organize the forces of law to de
