WONDERFUL CALIFORNlANS.

Their visor. Restless Spirit and ProdiEious
Mental and Physical Energy.
Some eastern people come to see tho
Del Monte because they have heard SO
much about it. Others come for the
benefit the climate offers them - to
drink in the perfume of flowers and to
enjoy the soft, salt breezes that sweep
the Pacific from the Orient and to bask
in the mellow sunshine that foods the
earth. And how they enjoy it all! The
charms of nature and the handiwork Of
man absorb them and they take in
health and contentment at every pore.
But so quietly The vigor, the restless
spirit. the prodigious mental and phys
ical energy that characterize Caifor-
mans are wholly lacking. Hence the
contrast between the winter season of
eastern visitors and the summer season
of Californians.
1t Is all easy to understand, and that
makes it all the more interesting. Our
eastern friends, having devoted life
time to struggle against adverse
natural conditions. have a spirit that
has been kept down by an iron hand.
A residence of few years in California
makes an astonishing change. A load
greater than that which Sinbad carried
when the Old Man Of the Sea was leg
locked round his neck has been cast off.
but nature requires time TO adjust the
freed slave to his altered conditions.
In time comes that peculiar spirit
found nowhere else in the world
which distinguishes Californians- They
are people apart from the great human
family-virile, strong, healthy, over
flowing with animal spirits, fond OF
sports, bent on the fullest enjoyment
of life, broad-minded. generous, hos
pitable, chivalrouss- altogether the most
agreeable people in the world
At the Del Monte l watch the gradual
change which comes over those east
erners'' who spend their winters here,
says writer in the Tourist There is
a change from year to year. It would
be far more rapid if they should remain
all the time. The step becomes lighter,
the eve brighter. the laughter heartier,
and slowly, but surely. the subtle esprit
which makes Californians OF all who
come under its spell 1t Is misfortune
not 70 be Californian.
