Possible Results OF Recent Transcon-
tinental Auto Tour Through This
Section of Much Interest.

That much good will result TO In
perial Valley by the recent use OF the
road through this country by the first
transcontinental automobile touring
party to traverse the southern route
is certainty How extensive the tra-
vel to be developed through the lead
of these pioneers is to be is, of course
uncertain. but the following prophecy
by A H. Westgard, who was in charge
of this party, is interesting:
Now that tour has been conduct
ed across the United States with pas
sengers who paid a fare to cross, it
is expected that many such runs will
be planned. Those who enjoy
motor car touring will be given an
opportunity to make the journey.
Walter Raymond of Pasadena, OF
Raymond & Whitcomb Co. said he
expects to see 800 Garford cars in
his garage ready to make the journey
across the continent This would
mean that at least 1909 people could
be accommodated IN this ope line OF
machines.

 Here are some, still young. who well come you as those who will serve with them some are here, old men, who hail you as those who grasp the torch they pass on, and others there are, not here, whose memory hallows your welcome, for having fought a good fight and fin ished the faith, they have won the crown of glory laid up for them, and, pray God, laid up for you also.
 In the name of all these, and In the name of your sons soon to follow you, the university challenges you to be strong and to quit yourselves like men; to be loyal to her great motto: "Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, what soever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue and if there be any praise, think on these things"
 And since it is right and seemly that you do publicly declare your purpose so to do; from you, to be fellows with us in this university, I claim your pledge:
