People may talk OF hard times, but the
fact remains that Southern California is
growing faster than any other part of
the country. Its deveopment is so phe-
nomenal as to form the subject of re-

Southern California's growth is due to
the zeal shown by its people IN building

best possible colonists. 1t is to be hoped
