garded as significant in view of recent
developments in beach transportation
facilities They seem to indicate that
Mr.. Huntington intends to exploit all
the beaches touched by the Pacific
Electric system this season more than
ever before. The west coast resorts are
evidently to be given "a run for their
money"
At any rate the Bayside Land com
pany is preparing for the liveliest sea-
