FROM THE AUTO

the Purpose

sibIe to View San Francisco

Visitors to the city often ask friends
what is the best way to see the city
with an automobile. With the average
motor car enthusiast it is difficult
for him to define route that will

have to take time to figure out the
best way This lack of knowledge has
been brought to the attention of the
California Promotion committee and it
has, through subcommittee which
consists of ]. Parker, chairman; Z. J.
Molera, Frederick II. Meyer and Max l..
Bosenfeld, outlined the following as the
routes which will give the best op-
portunity of seeing the sights of the
city:
One hours trip-Starting from Fairmont ho-
tel, out California street to Van Ness avenue.
to Washington street, 10 Cherry, to jackson TO
First avenue, through the Presidio going down
the long hill by the guns and out at the I.om-
bard street entrance, down to Van Ness avenue.
TO Bay street. TO Larkin and return TO Van Ness
avenue and back.
The two hours trip takes in the above and
then out 10 the park to the Ocean boulevard
to its end and return. By adding half an
hour 10 this come in by the lngleside
road. over the Twin peaks, giving one the most
comprehensive view of the city and the bay
that can be had from any point in the city.
These trips are now the regular schedule
trips adopted by the reception committee for
showing visitors the best part of the residential
portion of San Francisco. With these will be
included a trip through the business portion

1t is not desirable that girl should
check or subdue the natural light
heartedness and effervescence of youth.
On the contrary, these should be fos-
tered and indulged, but if she would
consider her future happiness she must
tend and nourish the serious side of her
mind. The young husband loves gayety,
even frivolity in his wife. but as the
advancing years bring sobriety to both
he looks for more substantial and more
CilIra BILE mental qualities.

This writer further says that when
we are admitted to converse with men
of intellect and culture we contribute
nothing to the general fund of instruc-
tion and entertainment; that we are
no longer good listeners; that we have
learned to chatter and to be happy
only when We are chattering. That we
do not think. and that it is therefore
not surprising that we should be un-
able to say anything worth listenin &
to. That since our reading is light
and trivial ii is not surprising that
We should have no ideas worth ex-
pressing.
Further. that the mother, harassed
by the cares of a household conducted
on a scale that strains the income of
the bread winner, becomes in her anx-
iety to maintain difficult position a
willing slave to social demands which
force her to neglect domestic duties.
She labors assiduously to marry her
DAUGHTERS well, but neglects to make
good wives of them. That for the
young girl in such a home there is
nothing that elevates and develops
the mind and very soon the desire for
it dies down and the ability to take
part in it ceases. Thrown back upon
herself or upon the society Of others
similarly situated, her sense Of proper
tion dwindles and her horizon becomes
dwarfed.
