 A large number of handsome folders have been gotten out to be sent to Los Angeles in care of J. w. Benhan, member of the executive committee, who will present before Secretary Wig gins, of the Los Angeles chamber Of commerce the claims of the PhoenlX merchants for their attention and CO., operation in making the carnival a success from the California standpoint. Director General Lewis is preparing a detailed programme which he and his committee will submit at once. In this respect it will enable the sub committees to carry out the minor de- i tails and to organize very effectively ] this year.
 The street decorations, street light | ing, booth building and similar con tracts that will involve considerable expenditure of money and time in or der that they may be attractive, will be given out the present week. From now on until Saturday the various sub committees will be called upon by the director general for daily meetings un- til they are organized and plans ar ranged for.
 There have been expressions of dis satisfaction in some quarters on ac- count of the date selected for the car nival, the week beginning December 10. One of the promoters speaking of the
  had been carefully gone over and that week was found to be the only one available. It could not, in the nature | of things, be arranged any earlier. It was at first proposed to hold the carnival in the week b5- ! ginning December 16, since the t1ach- CTS institute will be held here that week and there will be a vacation of | the schools. The merchants objected on 1 the ground that the carnival would | then interfere with preparation for the | holiday trade. Some time in January was next suggested, but objection was made on the part of the hotel keepers l that the crowds which would augment 1 the heavy tourist travel at that time [ and the advance guard of the legisla- l ture could not be taken care Of. A post l ponement until after the close of the l legislature was then considered The | objection to that was that warm weather would have set in by that time and many of the winter residents for
 whom the festivities were to be planned would have gone away. g the committee was necessarily brought i back to December 10.
