KNEW MANY OF THEM
| The appointment of w. e. Hughes a s

the visitors. j. c. Rhildaffer, a membe,

PLEASED WITH CALIFORNIA
DO the California people treat ev-
erybody as they have treated us?" was
the question Congressman Dovener put
to several members of the reception COM
mittee at the Van Nuys soon after he
had registered "If they do they are the
most hospitalble people l ever met" he
ad'ded. Ever since we entered the state
we have been shown every possible at
tention, and I can not express my ap-
probation of it with sufficient empha sis
to give you proper idea of how feel
about 1t. We have received nothing but
the most kindly treatment everywhere
and the same thing has already begun
mere. Why, the landlord here told me
moment ago that if I did not like nv
room could have his own and he would
take another. Do 1 like the country =?
We'll, 1 should, say do. 1t is a glorious
country indeed. We came here ex-
pecting to see the best part of it, and
judging from what we have seen TODAY
1 do not think we will be disappointed
I shall have nothing but praise for
California when I return home"
