LOS ANGELES LEADS
IN RELIEF MOVEMENT
MEN AND WOMEN WORKING I'AND IN
Feminine Hands Are Asked Bake Bread Realty Board
Gives $4,000 Response to Call for Aid
Is Quick and Generous

Los Angeles is striving to be of aid
to the stricken Californians and on
every hand there are plans on foot to
help the sufferers of her sister city.
Everything that man can do to help
his fellow man is thought of promptly
and the needed help has already begun
to pour in upon the city that yet lies
beneath it's wreck and flames.
The whole United States is thrum-
ming with those who are engaged in
planning help. Each city and each
hamlet in the land is busy with its
plans and mingled with the plans for
aid there is a hush that reaches every
where and sounds of sobs, for from
the sisterhood of cities there has been
a bright gem lost, and as the sun sets
in the golden west it's drift past the
Golden Gate rests upon city that is
burned and Drowned and tumbled pile
on pile of wreckage and in the ruins
there are cries that gradually grow
quiet with the ebb of day and coming
on of dead black night and death.
The stricken state of California is
Just awakening to the volume of the
horror that has swept upon it. The
daze that came when the fiame-swept
city of San Francisco was Isolated
from the world and writhing helplessly
beneath it's pail of smoke has been sue
CecQSQ Dy t0e Qull pam VI
and the knowledge of what is has swept
away the fears of what might be.
From every city and town in the
vicinity of San Francisco there came a
cry of horror. Just what the suffering
in the city on the burning hills was
there was none who could say with any
semblance of truth. The wires from
the east and west and north and south
were clogged with frantic cryings for
news and there was none to give: The
city was laid fiat upon the earth and
burning up.
Los Angeles awolle and saw the sun.
The clear blue of the sky that lifted up
was Neapolitan in it's glory and as the
city stirred and workers drifted down
toward their places of toll they met
a horde of shrieking newsboys who
cried the ruin of the, greatest city of
the state. numbed feeling grew upon
all and as the day progressed the bull
letins before The Herald held the
crowds that clogged the streets, scarcely
breathing, scarcely realizing what had
happened.
Each town and city in sight of the
wrecked city sends it's bit of news From
Oakland in particular, the news that
comes sets forth catastrophe so vast
that one can scarcely grasp it. The
damage to life and property is so ap-
palling that the mind is stunned and
cannot comprehend the scope of the
disaster.
The city lies in ruins and the living
throng the streets and seek their family
goods amidst the ashes and weep for
their dead that lie beneath the flames.
Los Angeles is rushing supplies to
the north. Hourly the wagon loads of
donations of cooked food and wearing
apparel are reaching the Southern Pa
cific depot to be put aboard the special
trains.
Doctors and nurses in Los Angeles
are volunteering their services ana
speeding north as fast as they can be
gotten away.

| MAILS FALLEN OFF
ONE-HALF SINCE
THE CATASTROPHE

The mails from Los Angeles to San
Francisco have fallen off nearly one
half since the news of the destruction
of the city came in.
Superintendent of United States
Mails Harry A. Shelton estimates that
there was a decrease that amounted to
more than 40 per cent in ordinary let
tiers mailed yesterday and addressed to
San Francisco. The special delivery
mall however, was extraordinarily
heavy
over 1000 letters bearing 10-cent
special delivery stamps were deposited
in the postoffice yesterday addressed
to friends and relatives in the de-
stroyed city by people who had been
frantically trying to telegraph and tele-
phone to establish communication.
The mail service yesterday was some
what irregular, and there was little
hope held out of any delivery being
made, as it was known that the mail
sacks were being piled up on the docks
at Oakland without the slightest idea
as to what would ultimately become
of them.

THE
SPOILERS
BY Rex E. Beach

Novels are like men: strong
personalities, virile emotions, en-
ergy and resource forge to the
front and are quick to catch the
public eye. This same magnetic
force in THE. SPOILERS-
the work of new writer-fas
Immediately caught the reading
world in its grip. They can't
let go.
Why?
1t is the story of strong man,
by a strong man, for strong and
grown-up men to read. 1t tells
vigorous tale of land where
the conventions of society have
no place. 1t is big with advent
ure, passion, love, strife-the
primal emotions at white heat.
The keynote of the story is
There's never law of God or
man runs North of Fifty-three.v
At stake are woman's love, the
wealth of the gold-ribbed hills,
and the mastery of all for the
man who has strength to seize
and hold it.
Novels like THE SPOIL

the story is begun!
