Mark Twain'g about the weather has unusual application. There
is a great deal of talk about the weather, but very little done
about it.

ill-fated residents of Montrose to make ready for another flood.
According to the morning papers, many homes are being evacu
ated, and household belongings packed. We doubt if a flood
occurs lightning doesn't strike twice in the same place. But it
shows how flood "conscious" this part of California has become.
We don't do much about the weather. But the weather docs
a great deal about US. President Roosevelt would confirm this,
as would the U. S. army air service, this complete flop of the
new air mail policy was NOT duo to former P. M. General Brown
or the howls of the private air companies,, but to the weather
man. Had there been clear weather and service as' usual, with
the army today on the job, the whole affair might have been a
very different story. But even as popular a president as Roose
velt couldn't stand five army fliers killed in as many days, by
"the climate."
Speaking of the president's popularity there is no doubt of
it but there is evidence some of his official family are inclined
to bank on it TOO much. Postmaster General Farley for ex
ample, in the south, instead of justifying the air mail manifesto
with FACTS AND FIGURES, says he rejoices that the rank and
file of good Americans are backing the president, in his efforts
to free the people from the strangle hold of stock jobbers and
promotion sharks. That is true enough. But until Mr. Farley
shows EXPLICITLY, just where the air mail companies have
flim-flammed the people, and been guilty of unfair and impro
per tactics, public opinion will refuse to bade the administration
in this particular direction. There is a right and a wrong way
in doing things of this sort. The right way is first to prove the
misdeed and then decree the punishment not tackle the prob
lem the other way around.
Have just returned from the Pasadena dog show, 'which is a
social event of great importance in Southern California. Once
upon a time the dog show was put on in a circus tent, but now
it is put on in the new civic auditorium where the ACOUSTICS
are better.
The show consists largely of
the dogs looking at the movie stars and the assembled multitude
looking at both. Robert Montgomery was there and had his
picture taken with a Great Diihe botli were very handsome

paper of hamburger under his arm, rolled up pellets about the
size of a'golf ball, and dropped them nonchalantly into the dog's
mouth. The-dog swallowed them "gerplupl" without changing
his expression or so much as asking for a chaser. As this oc
ourred about 3:30 p. m. we suppose it was the dog's tea. We
can't believe his meal of the day is such an informal and casual
event Of course his teeth don't meet, but then, he must use
them at some of his meals, otherwise he would soon lose them,
for certainly Stuart would not let such a wheer.y, misshapen old
gentleman, exercise them in a fight.
There are styles in dogs as in everything else. Judging by
the comments, we would say the old English sheep dogs have
the edge over the Schnauzers and Pinters at the present mo
ment. There were only about half a dozen of them, but they
got the crowd. They were attended by a glamorous lady of the
Jean Harlow type, and a colored chauffeur. Before being taken
into the ring, the latter under the former's crisp, authoritative
directions,, gave those pups everything but a permanent wave.
They were combed, manicured, plucked and massaged. And
they took it lying down so to speak. We know nothing about
this breed, but we would testify to the amiable disposition of
this particular exhibit. Perhaps they had been doped they
acted like it. Such a mauling as they got and yet never a
sound, nor a protest. They were shoved around, turned up,
and over, pulled this way and that, like so mnny pelts in a fur
factory. In fact they gave the impression of being a collection
of furzy, freshly washed, recently stuffed fur rugs. And as
they have no eyes that are visible, behind their Niagara Falls
bangs, this impression was greatly accentuated. The Duchess
in charge said a nice pup not a prize winner of course, but
first class pedigreed, registered, and all that could be purchased
tor $ 100. Well we would, rather putl into a mongrel sav a
oross between a Chow and a Dachshund and the rest into half

was given as thb reason ror the

the girl is now In an isolation ward
afflicted with a malignant, communi.

now as a witness would necessitate
an attendant and additional expense.
The court denied an order for her
appearance that contained a clause
providing her liberty during the pe

court ordered she be under guard.
The district attorney's office moved
for dismissal of the present indict

the girl brought here as a witness.
The Gilbrlde girl was ordered com

following action taken by her sisters,
