OUR SCHOOL ADVERTISEMENTS
COMMONWEALTH takes some pride in
the many school advertisements it pre-
SCENTS to it's readers in this issue. There
Is a two-fold compliment in it. 1t is
compliment to the paper that the
educators in the schools and colleges OF
this State, and several out of the State,
regard the circulation and tone OF the
paper such as to make it a good medium
tor them as advertisers; and it is com.
pliment to our readers that the school
and college presidents regard them as
class whom it is desirable to reach
through this medium. The SCHOOLS
ADVERTISED are all good ones.

ANNIVERSARY FIREWORKS TOMORROW

that PAINS fireworks have been leading feature
OF the nightly entertainments at Manhattan Beach

that more than ordinary interest will be taken in
the programme to be given that occasion. In
the early days of Manhattan there toy rail-

rails stills to link II to the Coney Island Of
the days gone by II had, however. a magnificent

to beyond the Oriental Hotel. Manhattan Beach
