mountain, "I am much interested In
that observatory
Then, looking about from one to the
other, and joking at a photographer
who stood near him trying to photo
graph him in a characteristic attitude,
he repeated: This sunshine is beau
tiful. / am going to take good rest
here. will be here for two weeks.
You see, they want me to play golf
over on the Annandale links, and they
want me to visit a couple of days on
Mount Wilson, and then they want me
to attend a banquet in Los Angeles
and to show you how I appreciate your
hospitality, I am going to do every
thing you have so far asked of me. -
He turned abruptly to the photog-
raphers, laughing jovially: Young
man. have you taken my picture yet?
Help yourself Here. do you want me
to pose for you? What shall do?
Point my hand toward the observatory,
eh? Well, here you are"
"What do 1 think of Southern Callfor-
MIA? Well, really, what must think?
There is only one answer possible.
think YOU have a wonderful country.
| never saw anything like it. What L
have seen OF Pasadena and Los An
geles makes me think they are mar
velous cities. Your people are to be
congratulated"
Believes in Work
Say for me that l am feeling wef-
only a bit fatigued. l have enjoyed
your hospitality immensely. I have
great amount of business to attend TO-
| am still working. / believe in work
lots of it-there is nothing better for
a man."
Later. before he entered his apart
ments at the hotel, he said:
Industry and economy are the two
straightest roads to success. Work,
young man, and make your work
profitable. 1 don't know what VIII
do when l can't work-if that day
should come.
"How much money have l given
away? Well, let me see-really l can't
answer that. You see, l don't keep my
own books, especially in the matter OF
donations. Yes, expect to give away
a good deal more-I am not going TO
die poor-I have a family, you know.
During the auto ride through the
park to the hotel Mr.. Carnegie
laughed and chatted freely with the
Pasadenans who accompanied him.
But once in the lobby of the hotel he
turned abruptly and announced he
had work to do" and went immedi-
ately to his apartments, where attend
ants at the hotel reported he was
strenuously occupied for several hours
with his correspondence and speech
composition.
Mr.. Carnegie expressed his willing
ness to sojourn for a couple of days
on Mt. Wilson, and accordingly was
informed that arrangements had been
made for eight cottages at the summit
to be occupied by the family, their
hosts and servants. The trip will be
made tomorrow morning, the weather
and the wish of Mr. Carnegie permit
ting, and the afternoon will be passed
by the aged magnate resting up for the
inspection Friday morning of the OBJ
servatory, which was endowed by Mr.
Carnegie. The report was denied in
Pasadena that Mr.. Carnegie would be
asked for further appropriations for
this observatory. The return trip
from Mt. Wilson probably will be made
Friday afternoon
