VISITORS COMING
PERFECT PLANS FOR SHRINER
HOST
Great Throng Expected to Be In Los
Angeles During Fiesta Week-Re-
ception Committee Selected
and Begins Work

1t was estimated yesterday that at
lease $4,000 Shriners and their families
will join the immense caravan which
will finally bring up at the Los An
geles oasis May 5.
In addition to the temples many per-
sons will visit Los Angeles for the
purpose of witnessing the Fiesta, so
altogether there may be $4,000 strangers
in this hospitable city during the first
two weeks of next month.
The first official event Of Shriner
week will be religious services held in
Christ church, Sunday evening, with
Rev Baker p. Lee, member of AL
Malaikah temple, in charge.
So far twenty-five patrols have sig
nified their intention of being present
in The Fiesta parade. Their uniforms
are gorgeous and their drill work is
sail to be superb, and the patrols will
be one of the big features of the pa
rades, it is claimed.
The San Francisco delegation will be
very large and will include an Arab
patrol.
Reception Is Arranged
The visitors will be received upon
their arrival by three patrols-two of
AL Malaikah temple and one from the
Islam temple of San Francisco.
The special trains will begin arriving
Sunday, May 8, and while there may
be some delays yet the trains are ex-
pected to make good time on account
of the greatly improved weather con-
ditions.
The Shriners on their arrival will be
escorted to their various hotels and
boarding houses, women and children
will find special cars to convey them
to their quarters and hundreds OF We
hicles will be impressed into service
to carry the immense amount of bag
gage which will swamp the baggage
men for several days, it is expected.
Potentate Motley H. Flint was in
Venice yesterday. accompanied by w.
H. Harrison, chairman of the hotel
committee, making final arrangements
for the features to be given at the won-
derful little city by the sea, whose at
fractions are so in keeping with much
of the ideas of Mystic Shriners as to
display and architecture.
