STATE WIDE SEARCH
FOR MISSING WOMAN
RESULTS SUCCESSFULLY
LOS ANGELES, June 27 (by Asso
ciated Press).—Mrs. Mattie Rooney,
55, left her peaceful home in Sawtelle,
near here, unannounced, and for
nearly a month was the object of a
state-wide search by her friends,
aided- by the police of many cities.
Topango Canyon is a natural path
leading from the San Fernando val
ley, a narrow but fertile strip of land
on the plateau above Los Angeles, to
the sea.
On a high mountain overlooking
r== ■ ■—
this scenic canyon, Mrs. Rooney took
up her abode in a lonely cabin.
Three donkeys, five dogs and a par
rot were her only, but constant com
panions. Mrs. "Robinson £rusoe,” as
her friends now call her, planted a
garden to vary her diet of the wild
game she shot and the fish she caught
in the sea below.
And so she lived happily for nearly
a month.
But her friends found her and now
Mrs. “Crusoe’ is once again Mrs. Mat
tie Roney and lives again in her
peaceful home at Sawtelle.
No one should be without an elec
trie plate, especially the kind with J
different heats. Northwestern Hard

It is a striking fact that men in the same conditions
tyid environments enthusiastically’ take wholly different
; attitudes on the same subject. Among a number of men
working under the same conditions for the same pay on
1 the same job you will find some perfectly satisfied and
some wholly dissatisfied. As the outward conditions are
the same to all, there must be something in the men them
selves that makes this difference of attitude. Some men
are constitutionally obsessed Avith the feeling that this
old Avorld is headed down hill to the boAv-AvoAvs, and that
upon them has fallen the task of preventing the almost
inevitable catastrophe. There is another class that know
this is a good place to live and Avith all their fivb senses
are feasting upon the good things and rejecting that
which is bad. It is the former that herd in mobs and
head riots; it is the latter that are the balance Avheel of
civilization, and prevent the machinery of organized
society from tearing itself to piebs. The former are tbp
i malcontents, the nomads, the iconoclasts and professional
i agitators. The latter are the members of our churches,
the supporters of our schools, the patrons of our arts and
the owners of homes. The distinguishing difference be
! tween these two classes of men is in their ability to select
and appreciate the things that are really worth while
' in life. No one ever saw home owners herding in mobs
or heading riots. The man Avho oa\uis his home enjoys
the ordered scheme of life. He instinctively knoAvs it is
the only scheme that will prQtect his family and foster
that family influence that produces the type of character
that gets most out of life for the individual and does most
for the other members of society. The man who owns
a home or has the home-owning instinct is always a re
sponsible citizen and gets a satisfaction out of living un
known to the man who has no place that he can call his
very own. .
Among men with the same advantages in life with
the same earning capacity and with the same earnings
you will find home owners and men whose n$mes never
appear upon a registry of deeds. Each has spent his
earnings in his own Avay—the one for the things that
endure for a day—the other for a home, a place that is
his to have and to hold, a place upon which he can stamp
his own individuality, a kingdom in Avhich he is undis
puted monarch, a haven for his declining years, and a
monument when lfe is done. Any man who really desires
to, can OAvn a home. It may require saving and sacrifice,
but everything worth while must be striven for. The fact
that every foot of ground, every board in the Avails,
every shingle upon the roof represents a temporary
sacrifice and hard work, only adds to the enjoyment of
his home. ,
Buy a home, work and pay for it, enter into a strata
of life you haven’t yet tapped and see'how quickly your
foolish fears for the final finish of things wijl evaporate
and what a satisfaction ther is in being.
