there is to be a number of prominent people go from here and from
Godfeld to be present at the opening. The opening of the board is one
of the results of the visit of the business men of the city of Angels to
this section of the country some months ago Those people of Los An

country. They did not know Just what they could do to ingrtiate them
selves with our people, for they saw a lot Of business for them here.
