KANDA PRAISED
BY OLD FRIEND
PROF. DIXON PAYS TRIBUTE TO
JAPANESE EDUCATOR
U. S. C. STUDENTS GREET VISITOR
FROM MIkADo'S LAND
Buildings Draped with Flags of Both
Countries In Honor of Man
Now Guest of Los
Angeles

Professor James Main Dixon of the
University of Southern California was
warmly greeted by the Japanese dele
cation, especially by his old friend
Baron Kanda, @ professor in the Peers
school. Toxic, and a leading educator.
In talk with a representative of Los
Angeles Herald. Professor Dixon thus
described the learned baron:
"Of all our Japanese visitors Baron
Kanda speaks our language the most
fluently. He is man of great culture
not so much of the Japanese schol-
arly type as of the type of men of the
world, men of affairs, who have been
trained in this country. Consequently
although he has been connected with
the university, his work has been
mostly along the lines of general edu-
cational development, the general pro-
vision of education, and now he is at
tached to the higher commercial school.
HE understands American affairs
better than any Of is fellow country
men, and in order to give you glimpse
of his breadth of view, let me tell you
his ideal of collegiate education is
one that consists not only of attend
ance at the classes but of rowing, boat
university life should be a complete
ence a man may meet in active life.
I'm Japan he mixes freely with for
eigners, belongs to the clubs, and, as

WHAT The HERALD CAN DO

Does newspaper advertising pay? I
think o. L. Wuerker of 229 South
Spring street can very satisfactorily
answer that question. A few weeks
ago he received direct importation of
very fine white diamonds. A Herald
representative happened in and said:
why don't you give us a display 'ad
about these diamonds?' His prompt
reply was: whats the use? I have
never received any results from news
paper advertising" The good points
as well as the large circulation Of The
Herald, appealed to him. He said:
"Well I'll once more try the newspaper
stunt -. The Tuesday following the
appearance of the Sunday "ad" this
same representative dropped in to see
Mr.. Wuerker, feeling just a little shy,
not knowing what was going to be said.
Much to our surprise he said: "Well,
what do you think? A woman came
into my store and asked me if it were
true that l was selling white diamonds
for $115 per carat. How did you learn
this? 1 said. Why, 1 cut this "ad"
out of the Sunday Herald" " 1t stands
to reason if you want your "ads" to
be read and bring you results you must
advertise in the Los Angeles Morning
Herald.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-11-21

remember him, took a part in amateur
dramatic entertainments, ETC."
Dean Norton of Pomona college was
one of Baron Kanda's contemporaries
and friends at Amherst, and he wrote
asking the baron to visit Pomona. On
account of lack of time this was i'm
possible. However, he gave up all of
his time and attention yesterday morn
ing to Professor Dixon, and went with
him to the University of Southern Cali
fornia.
The university buildings were draped
with the flags of America and Japan,
and dozen or more Japanese students
in attendance at the university accom-
panied the president, DR.. Bovard, in
extending a warm welcome to the
baron.
In the reception hall, for the benefit
of members of the faculty and others,
Baron Kanda read the imperial rescript
dealing with education which was is
sued nineteen years ago, and by inject
ing into the national life a liberal edu-
cational element helped to advance
Japan among the civilized nations with
the sure and certain progress which
has aroused the wonder and evoked the
admiration of mankind.

Closing,
CROWN OIL MEN
VISIT VENTURA WELLS

A party of stock investors from Po-
mona will leave this morning for the
Crown Oil companys property in Ven
tura. H. Friedman, vice president OF
the company, will accompany the
party Orders have been given for
commencing work on the property pre-
paratory to drilling number of wells.
1t seems reasonably certain from the
location of the Crown Oil land being
so near the Brownstone wells, that
they will encounter oil at about zoo
feet. 1t is expected that the first well
will produce not less than 150 barrels
per day, while the deeper wells which
will be drilled later are expected TO
produce in the neighborhood of from
600 to 1000 barrels daily. Much activi-
ty is reported from the Sespe district
and many companies are actively OPP
Grating in that locality.

BOYS THROW CATS INTO
CHURCH DURING PRAYERS
Yowllng Fellnes Disturb Services al
Church of Messiah and Arrests
Will Be Made

Declaring their evening services for
the last month have been interrupted
by yowling felines thrown through the
windows by young hoodlums living in
the neighborhood. the board of direct
of the Church of the Messiah, Washing
ton street and Van Ness avenue, has
through its secretary, NJ. E. Austin,
appealed to Chief of Police Dishman to
put stop to the mischievous practice.
According to the church people, the
lads loiter about the church during the
services, and while the congregation
is engaged in prayer the youths hurl
a strong-lunged cat through the win
dows on the backs of tho"c bowed in
prayer.
Sometimes, the complaiAants assert.
the boys vary the performance by
tying an unfortunate tabby to a long
stick and throwing the noisy package
in through the front door. The commo-
