TheCaliforniaPoliceAc- tivities League held a re- gional meeting at the M & M Ranch House Restaurant on Thursday, Jan. 28. The meeting was at- tended by several PAL chap- ters in Northern California, including Lake County, Wil- lows, Aetna and Tehama County and was chaired by California PAL Director Gregg Wilson. The organi- zation's headquarters is lo- cated in San Leandro. Topicsfordiscussionwere bylaws, articles of incorpo- ration, mission statement, 501 (c) (3) nonprofit status, insurance policies, budget, advertising, funding, state- wide programs, calendar of events, Youth Leader- ship Academy, getting law enforcement more involved andthefutureofPALinCali- fornia and across the nation. Each participant had an op- portunitytoshareideasdur- ing the meeting. The California PAL motto is "The future is now." YOUTH Police League holds meeting Those sparkling, glitter- ing, glowing flecks I have scattered on you cause no harm; do not be alarmed. It is pixie dust from whence great magic comes. Immedi- ately great wealth be- yond all ex- pectation will befall you! Vary not your customary routine; dollars will gravi- tate to you. Strangers will bestow upon you copious quantities of currency. A gold vein will be unearthed in your backyard. Congress will declare a new tax with all proceeds delivered to an account of your choosing. That is merely the begin- ning. Not only will these gleaming granules of glo- rious glitter augment your bottom line, they impart su- pernatural powers. While holding a few flecks, click together your heels three times, spin twice to the east, sing passionately your favorite show tune, and you will become as the breeze and elevate weightlessly into the sky, able to fly with the birds along the tops of redwoods. These miniscule specks also possess extraordinary healing power. You will live countless years in perfect health. Nothing unpleas- ant will befall you; disease is non-existent, accidents a concern of the past. Live boldly. Live large; for you have been infused with the powder of pixies. I detect cynicism; how can you doubt? We are ex- posed to countless similar claims of buffoonery pro- claiming equally implausi- ble benefits, all wrapped in the blanket of the "latest se- cret of weight loss". Why do we believe those, yet scoff at equally implausible payback of pixie powder? One supplement on line proclaims, "a total body makeover pill for women of all ages," and professes to suppress appetite, en- large breast tissue, and su- per charge your sex drive. (Who would have known that bust size is related to weight loss?) I'm sure this miracle of modern medi- cine even cleans the house, helps students with calcu- lus, and solves geopolitical struggles in the Middle East on weekends. Such claims are similarly believable. Another product is cloaked in ancient myster- ies, declaring to reveal "The Secret" from ancient scrolls containing "many little- known health and weight loss secrets, including a fountain of youth-like phi- losophy called 'lean-gev- ity.'" Should we mere mor- tals have a chance to peruse these scrolls, they probably read, "eat less, move more, and focus on long-term change." However, such de- tails are omitted from the on-line marketing materials — must be an oversight. No worry however; for merely $79, one can share the en- lightenment. I cannot get my credit card at the ready quickly enough. I so often wish I could pop a pill, read a scroll, or swallow a concoction that would magically change the traits I do not like about myself. Alas, I do live in reality; no products will ever accomplish those goals. However, achieving results through self-con- trol, determination, and healthy choices is a magi- cal feeling.

Thankyou! "Coney Island" the fa- mous island in the Sac- ramento river which has caused much discussion in the superior court as to whether it was in wet or dry territory, was held to be in dry territory by a decision rendered in the Third District Court of Ap- peal at Sacramento Thurs- day. In this decision the court upholds Judge J. F. Ellison of the of the Supe- rior Court in this county. Ellison held in his deci- sion that "Coney Island" was in the third superviso- rial district and was there- for in dry territory. Attor- neys for R. J. Williams, who was charged with sell- ing liquor on this island, held that the island was not part of the Third dis- trict and in wet territory. Williams was sentenced to 75 days in the county jail but had the case appealed to a higher court. He will now have to serve his sentence and "Co- ney Island" will hereafter be dry. — Feb. 5, 1916 100 YEARS AGO...
