where the people are enchanted by the
old customs and give time and money
to preparation with will for a gala
time, will next week furnish enjoy
ment to thousands that they will re-
member all of their lives.
Hundreds of easterners have pro-
longed their winters stay in the Angel

by a roster of the hotels. There are
still several hundred visiting Shriners
here and many more will come from
nearby cities. Many tourists and ex-

swell the number of visitors up into the
thousands.
