EVENT OF YEAR
Council Refuses to Concur with Chief
Executive In Granting City
Employees Extra Half
Holiday

Mayor Alexander yesterday issued a
geles fixing Friday, January IA, as a
holiday and asked that business men
close their doors and permit their en-
ployes to attend the aviation meet. The
proclamation follows:
In compliance with the requests
of many of the business men, who
wish some definite date fixed, that
all the stores may close at the same
time do hereby earnestly urge the
citizens of Los Angeles to observe
Friday, January IA, 1910, as a holi-
day and that on that afternoon,
the business men do close their
places of business and allow their
ID employees to attend the aviation
meet.
This meet is one of the most inn
portant events of the year in Los
Angeles, and we should all do what
we can to make it great success.
The proclamation of the mayor to
the public in general followed the re-
fusaI of the council yesterday after
noon to declare a half holiday Friday
and close the city hall SO that the city
employees might have an opportunity
to attend the meet on Los Angeles
day. Councilmen Andrews and Greg
ory opposed the declaration of a half
holiday for city employees.
Saturday afternoon is half holi-
day, anyhow" said Councilman Greg
ory. land l do not believe we would
be justified in fixing Friday, afternoon
as a holiday also. = am sureNWe would
be criticised if we did, We criticised
former councils for making holidays so
often"
The council unanimously voted to file
the mayors message. Councilman
Betkouski and President Works were
absent. The message which was filed
was as follows:
I respectfully recommend that in
honor of the Aviation meet now
being held here, your honorable
body pass a resolution asking the
citizens of Los Angeles to observe
Friday, January 14th, as a holiday
and requesting the business men to
close their places of business on that
day. Also that, by resolution, you
grant the city empoyes leave of alb
sence for a half day on that date.

LITTLE JOHNNY JONES"
 COMING HERE

Little Johnny Jones' comes to the Elks theater next Tuesday night. when doubtless the legion of follow CTS of that most popular of all musi- cal comedies will wear the smile that will not be eradicated, for of a sure ty no jollier, snappier, or more rib tickling play has visited the classic precincts of this village for many a day. George M. Conan has succeeded in evolving a musical comedy with a real plot, and there is just enough love interest in Little Johnny Jones' to keep the folks who lean towards the sentimental side of life in a delightfully."- preoccupied condi- tion
 Song hits galore are found in Lit tie Johnny Jones' Startling situa- tions are found in Little Johnny Jones'" A chorus who are never idle is found in Little Johnny Jones, , and through it all stalks "The Un- known,' who says everybody in the world has got mean disposition, be- cause they do not countenance his convivial views of life. This unique character must be seen to be appre- ciated. It is a classic insofar as musical comedy is concerned.
