Los Angeles herald., 1906-03-26

Owing to the extreme interest being
The Herald's preliminary announce
ments of the proposed Summer Vaca-
tion Studies, consisting of series oi
| travel lessons furnished from a collec-
tion of polychrome stereo views. it is
necessary TO ascertain the probable
number of school students who will
actually be interested in accompany
ing The Herald upon this grand
worlds tour.
This series of studies will present
many new and novel features on ac-
count of the very original methods to
be adopted in introducing the different
subjects. The method will be simple,
yet most effective and far reaching,
enabling the yougest pupils to grasp a
full and comprehensive understanding
of every scene so perfectly illustrated
by the stereoscope and polychrome ste
REQ view and described in The Herald
studies, giving the geographical and
historical account in each subject,
thereby lending greater interest than
is ordinarily obtained through the same
amount of study given to books.
This worlds tour begins at the ma
tional capitol, Washington, D. c., with
beautiful polychrome view of the
capitol grounds, showing the immense
capitol dome in the background. The
stereoscopic effect causes the blossoms
and shrubbery to appear in their natu-
raj colors and to seem to stand out in
bold relief enabling the beholder to
apparently see around and through the
objects in the beautiful landscape as
lett hninp
and viewing the original scene.
Tour of the World
Each succeeding view to follow grad
ually leads the student on a trip
through tropical Florida, thence west,
stopping at New Orleans: then on to
California, visiting the Yosemite val
ley and the big tree country, going
east again via Colorado. the Niagara
falls and to New York. The departure
for the old world is then made, arriv-
ing in England. Many places of his
torical interest are then visited in each
of the foreign civilized countries, such
as Ireland, Scotland, France. Italy,
Switzerland, Germany, Denmark, Swe-
den, Holland, Austria. Norway and
Russia. A short pilgrimage is then
made to Palestine, the Holy Land and
to Egypt, the land of the Pharaohs.
South Africa is touched, then the
Orient is visited. viewing the wonders
of Japan and the Philippine Islands,
Hawaii and the United States posses
sions in the far east, reaching home
via South America and Mexico.
This tour will require thirty-three
weeks to conclude, visiting three points
each week, thereby enabling a careful
study of each place visited.
The descriptive feature of each view
to be applied through a special de-
partment of The Daily Herald will
complete a chain that will not only
prove most interesting, but will be
found to furnish more practical meth
cd of obtaining a perfect understand
ing of the knowledge sought for than
any system ever before devised for a
similar purpose. An additional feature
of the studies as published in The
Daily Herald will be made so as to per-
init each student to clip the descrip-
tion from the paper and paste it on
the back of each respective polychrome
stereo view, thereby enabling the COM
plete study to be retained permanently.
How to Get stereo and Views
Arrangements have been completed
for supplying every reader of The Daily
Herald with an improved 1906 stereo-
scope and a set of polychrome stereo
views upon plans that will enable all to
take up these studies at once. 1t will,
of course, be necessary for each person
