FREE RIDES TO CONTINUE
Long Beach to Bay City on the j. C.
Elliott Is Trip of
Pleasure

The innovation of a free ocean ride
drew large crowds of people to Bay
City last week. the Fourth of July and
Sunday proving the banner days. The
fact that practically all the beach
frontage on the Southern California
coast is taken up is being given actual
recognition by the people who are now
investing in this class of property on
the basis of permanence and home
building, rather than speculation pure
and simple. Bay City is profiting large
ly by this condition. The free ocean
rides will be continued indefinitely, the

BUYING PROPERTY

COL. LANKERSHlM REVIEWS
REAL ESTATE SITUATION
Young Men Who Lost In Northern
Disaster Invest In Angel City
and Engage In Profitable
Business

Property in Los Angeles has in
creased decidedly since the fire in San
Francisco" said Col. ]. B. Lanker-
shin, proprietor of the well known Ho-
tel Lankershim, and one of the heaviest
property owners in Los Angeles.
"A large number of young business
men who were actively engaged in San
Francisco before the disaster and who
suffered much by the great fire, have
moved to Los Angeles and are buying
property and entering business here.
"Since the northern disaster property
in the business section of Los Angeles
has increased noticeably in value.
Property ON South Spring street which
formerly was valued at from $3500 to
S4500 per front foot has now increase
to $4,000 per front foot. Within the past
week several properties on South Spring
street have changed hands and in many
instances more than $4,000 per front foot
have been paid for them
"The question with the young bust
ness men of San Francisco is shall 1
wait until San Francisco has rebuilt,
or shall I go to Los Angeles, a city
which already is built up, and resume
my business?'
Cannot Afford to Wait
Personally I know that San Fran
cisco will rebuild and on much safer
and more beautiful plan than 1t ever
was before, but the young energetic
business man has not the patience nor
TO t-ai ha
her history has been reached. He must
be up and doing and the field where the
possibilities appeal to him the quickest
is the field in which you will find he is
opening up in business. For the last
ten days | have been negotiating with a
score of just such young men.
1T is absurd to say that San Fran
cisco's disaster has been the making of
Los Angeles. In the first place it is
not the proper spirit to encourage in
view of the tremendous calamity that
has overtaken our sister city of the
state: in the second place it is not the
truth
Los Angeles has already been made
and her future has long ago been as
sured. Los Angeles owes great deal
to San Francisco"
Col. Lankershim's health has been
failing recently owing to the great
amount of business cares with which
he has to contend. Recently he had
an attack of malarial fever followed by
la grippe. Constant care of physician
brought him out of his bed much soon
er than was expected. When seen yes
terday he was busy with several young
San Francisco business men that are
now negotiating with him for the pur-
chase of property on South Spring
street
Col. Lankershhn has recently leased
to the NJ. A. Gunst company a 50-foot
front store on South Spring near West
Third street The latter company is at
present engaged in remodeling this
property and will open up in business
here within a few days.
