Abraham Varela, fourteen years old,
and who lives on Pico street near Wall,
was struck by an automobile at the
junction of Main street and Broadway
at o'clock last evening and painfully
injured. He was taken to the receiving
hospital, where he was found to be
suffering from severe lacerations of the
scalp and face, while the index finger
of his right hand was broken.
According to witnesses the boy was
riding a wheel north on Main street
! and riding about as fast as he could go.
AS he approached the crossing he
turned = suddenly, to avoid another
Wheel and ran straight into REQ
touring car driven by j. Hartsook of
621 Westlake avenue.
Mr.. Hartsook saw him coming and
stopped the car, though not until the
two front wheels had passed over the
boys body. Young Varela did not lose
consciousness and bore himself bravely.
He was placed in the tonneau and
hurried to the receiving hospital, where
his wounds were dressed by DR.. Fried
man.

PARENTAL SCHOOL
TO HOUSE TRUANTS
COMPULSORY EDUCATION is THE
PLAN
Superinte ndent Moore Explains the
Object of the institution, Which
viii Be Added to the Los Angeles
Educational System

The truant officers duties will begin
next Monday and children who at
tempt to play hockey will get into
trouble.
For the present they will be sent to
the special ungraded schools on Vernon
and Solano avenues, but after the pa
rental school Is built and in running
order next spring the confirmed truants
will be sent to that institution.
The parental school will be erected on
a site just bought by the school board
near ElySian park, and building opera
tions will begin within thirty days.
superintendent e. G. Moore said yes
terday that Los Angeles would be the
first city in California to obey the law
passed by the state legislature in 1903
compelling the education of every child
under the age of IA, whether the child
be willing or not.
1.-THE parental schooi will not be for
criminal children, because we do not
believe there is such child" said
Superintendent Moore. There are
only delinquent children, and the pa
rental school will be home for such
unfortunates. The school will be sur
rounded by high fence and there will
be locks and bolts. but otherwise the
school will be quite like any public
school. We expect first to employ one
principal and four assistants for the
boys and women instructors for the
girls, If there are any. There will be
workrooms, baths and gymnasium.
Construction work probably will begin
within a month. and the building will
cost about 100000"

Industrial Growth is Great

One thing has been overlooked, and
that is the fact that Southern Califor-
MIA, and especially Los Angeles and the
district Immediately surrounding this
city, is becoming manufacturing CEN
ter.
A few years ago the wealth Of South
ern California was confined to its cli-
mate, its fruits and it's flowers, and
comparatively none abroad ana very
that have been made industrially. I'm
til comparatively recently Southern
California made practically none of the
goods 1t consumed, but now 1t is not
only supplying its own wants in many
re spects, but is invading the markets
of the east with its manufactured
products.
Hundreds of manufacturing indus
tries Of whose existence many of the res
idents Of Southern California are in ig-
norance have sprung UP within the
past decade. They employ thousands
of workmen and their annual output
amounts to millions of dollars.
To Hold Exposition
With the idea of demonstrating the
industrial growth of Southern Califor-
mia and illustrating graphically just
what is being done in the way of home
manufacture, 1t is the intention to con-
duct In Los Angeles a MADE in South
ern California Exposition"
BY this means 1t is hoped to educate
the people in the direction of giving
support to local instit u tions which en-
ploy home labor, in preference to buy
ing goods sent from eastern markets to
compete with products of Southern
California factories.
This exposition according to plans
already formulated, will be held for
three weeks next May, beginning be-
fore the Fiesta, continuing during FL
esta week and for a few days afterward.
T. Newman, who is the moving spirit
in the enterprise, has secured the use
of the Panorama rink on Main street,
which has a floor space of about 10000
square feet, which will give ample room
for working exhibits In the various
lires.
Wheels viii Go Round
1t is the intention not only to display
manufactured goods, but in many in
stances small plants will be in actual
operation to show the methods of man
ufacture.
In addition to the exhibit it is the
irtention of the promoters of the expo
sition to engage the services of an or
chestra and to have a promenade con-
cert each afternoon and evening.
Work of interesting the mana cement
OF the various Industrial establishments
throughout Southern California has be-
gun, and it is said that the success of
the undertaking already is assured

Seeds in Public Schools.

Under the auspices of the Town I'm.

our Public Schools have Just had the
second annual opportunity to pro-
cure the flower and vegetable seeds.
which are supplied for this purpose
by the Home Gardening Association
of Cleveland, Ohio. and paid for by
the pupils. at the rate of one cent per
packet.
Large envelopes are furnished, con
tanning the names of the different var
ieties which may be ordered and
places for noting the number Of each
desired. On the arrival Of the seeds
about April 10, these envelopes are
used for their delivery.
Through the agency of the teachers
the lists are made ont and the PEN
MES collected and turned over to the
committee having the matter in
charge. by whom the seeds, on ar
rival. are pla ced in the envelopes and
cent to the schools for distribution.
a great degree OF interest has been
shown by both teachers and pupils,
as is indicated by the promptness and
completeness of the 'returns" ms we'll
IA the number of Subscribers.
Nearly 1900 packets were taken by
1875 pupils, Of whom 40 were in the
school OF the first ward, II in the High
school and 90 in the third ward school.
The list of seeds includes IA var
ieties of flowers and 8 Of vegetables.
Through the same agency there were
distributed last autumn about 1900
tulips and other bulbs, some Of which
were used for identifying the School
House grounds and the City Lot
This method of enlisting the inter-
est of the young people in promoting
the useful and beautiful cannot fail to
be of great benefit to them, as well as
to the town at large.
1t is somewhat painful TO observe
that some of our older people seem
oblivious to the bean tifying or the
preservation Of the trees which add
so much to the handsome appearance
of our streets and their comfort in
hot weather. Trees arc often cut
down without apparent necessity and
everywhere on the streets may BIO
seen evidences of their reckless de-
struction by the gnswing Of the bark
by horses thonghtlessly tied to them.
