One Of the most effective pieces of
booster work IN connection with the
San Diegans' visit 10 Ii Centre yes
terday was that performed BY the Ell
Centre Women's Ten Thousand Club
This club gave a reception in the
State Street Christian Church to the
visiting ladies.
The auditorium was handsomely
decorated with cotton plants showing
their wealth of snowy lint, and with an
abundance of roses and chrysanthe-
NUNS. The general color scheme was
white and green and it was highly eff
fective.
Through the center Of the auditori.
um were placed tables on which val
ley products were Displayed. These
included fruits, grains and vegetables,
and attracted much favorable CON-
ment.
Mrs. R. B. Vaile, president of the

houses and the smaller hotels have
begun to fill up. At the larger hotels
the influx which comes to them does
not, as a result, make its appearance
until after the holidays.
All of the hotels anticipate that the
coming winter will be one of the
greatest in the history of the state for
tourists, and they have prepared to
care for the big crowds that will come
and that are now coming.
Those who come here to escape the
cold weather come from ali over the
world, several Of the larger hotels
having already booked reservations
for parties from England, Germany
and France. There are also reserva-
tions made for a number of Cana
u.anS.
According to the hotel people OF
Los Angeles the American people are
travelling more and more every year
and of the thousands of travellers a
large majority come here. When they
return home the stories they tell OF
the beauties of Southern California
cause their friends to want to make
the trip and the result is that this
winter a greater number of tourists
are looked for here than ever before

LONDON HAS NEW LORD MAYOR

LONDON, Nov. with all the time
honored pageantry and stupidity solemn
ceremonial that has marked lord
mayors day" for 700 years, Sir Thomas
Boor, Crosby, physician, merchant and
tinancier, was today inaugurated as
lord mayor of London. Sir Thomas is
tie first man to hold degree of M. ID.
TO assume the magistracy of the
worlds metropolis. There was the
usual parade today and the big banquet
tonight will wind up the initiation.
The new lord mayor has been an
alderman for thirteen years and filed
the office of sheriff of London for one
term. LOndon's lord mayor is not
chosen by the voice of the people. The
alderman, who are elected for life, de-
cided that position so exalted as lord
mayor should not be open to outsiders
and dependent on popular vote. Under
the scheme now in operation every al
derman, if he live long enough, is as
sured of becoming lord mayor for one
year when his turn comes. When Sir
Thomas Vesey Strong was chosen last
year, Sir Thomas Crosby was next" "
ana now it is his turn to sit in the
civic chair for twelve months. The
honor is an empty one, so far as real
executive authority is concerned, but
gives the pOsseSSOr a high social
standing. NOR even the king may en-
ter the small section of London
known as the city" without receiving
the keys from the lord mayor

ARE FOLLOWING THE TRAIL
THAT LEADS TO SUNSET

Phoenix Republican: After several
weeks of JOY riding and with three
more to come, the "Trall to Sunset
Garford tourists are well through the
hardest part of their journey. Each
days program begins with a royal
send off, as the five powerful cars
slide over the city pavements and
start on another days journey To-
wards the close of the afternoon and
sometimes at dusk, with so, 90 or 100
miles behind them, they roll into an
other town to be received as enthusi
astically as they had been sent off in
the morning.
The tourists are making the first
transcontinental trip of this kind, fol
this is a commercial enterprise and
but the inauguration of regular tours
NO better way to see the country
could be devised. There is no at
tempt at sneed by the motorists, MOI
an exact schedule following, and this
allows plenty of time to see the points
of interest. In the large cities the
trail" becomes a sight seeing eXcur-
sion and the tourists are piloteC
about by some person familiar with
the places OF interest.
The tourists have with them A. l.
Nestgard of The A. A. A, who has
made the trip on three other occa-
sions. Westgard is able to furnish
them with detailed information in re-
gard to don't.
The trip would hardly be practic-
able without 4 baggage car, and this
is provided in the way of Garford

on the trucl, was a matter that Mr.
Westgard gave special attention TO
The truck body is arranged with
compartments. access 10 which may

such as suitcases, etc, the truck Is
carrying tents. folding cots, bedding

emergency along the Santa Fe trail
where towns with good accOmmoda
tions will not be met as frequently as
through the Middle West.
At Globe, Ariz.. the tourists will bt
met by the governor of the state anu
escorted to Phoenix. From that point
it was originally planned to take a
course through Blythe, Mecca and Riv-
erside and thence TO Los Angeles, but
on account of the urgent appeal OF
prominent citizens, Hr. Westgard de-
cided to make the route through
Yuma and Ell Centro and thence tC
Los Angeles over the road USED by ,n6
Phoenix racers.

THE SPIRIT OF SAN DIEGO
1t is with much gratiicat

1t is with much qualification TINS
journal notes the spirit manifest in
San Diego as shown by the reciprocal
policy it has adopted as n regular pro
gram.
To point TO a contrast which may
not be the most pleasant reading in
all quarters, but which should be set
for in frankness:
Los Angeles decided on State divis
ion, but in formulating its program il
ignored and thereby alienated the re
mainder of Southern California.
A group of men in Los Angeles in
augurated a reformatory movement
as applied to State government and
even though the same policy of ignor-
ing all other portions of Southern
California was followed, the people up
held the movement because they be
lieved in the reform, and vast good
was accomplished. And Yet any
thing like permanency of organization
was made impossible because the in
terror communities must resent
the domination of body from which
they are barred, but which they are
asked to follow blindly.
Such has been the characteristic Of
Los Angeles for years, financially. in
dustrially, commercially and political
ly, its self sufficiency and apparent
contempt for all things outside the city
alternating it from the remainder of
Southern California.
Now comes San Diego wi,h an en-
tirely different policy. Within about
two years the railroad which is to
connect that city with the world al
large will be completed and already
San Diego has adopted definite pro-
gram of reciprocity which is the
broadest gauge movement ever de
veloped on the Pacific coast.
Not simply is San Diego holding out
the hand OF fellowship to Imperial
Valley and Arizona points, and Incl
dentally assisting in boosting these
regions, destined to be its close neigh
bors, but il has formed alliances with
large transportation factors and with
big industrial houses in every south
ern city from the national capital TO
its own beautiful bay, to the end thai
traffic shall be diverted over this all
southern route. San Diego thus has
made itself big factor in a general
campaign of progress to cover all the
Southern states.
But this is not the entire program
1t is proposed in the course of few
months to begin a definite campaign
TO enlist all New England in this
program, and in doing so the long
fiber cotton possibilities of Imperial
Valley and other resources of this val
ley will be given great prominence.
The people of San Diego apparently
realize that in the building of great
commercial city something more than
town lots and office buildings are re-
quired and that there must be affiliat
ing ties that run beyond the munici-
pal boundaries.
1t is policy of breadth so new to a
large city in Southern California thai
it cannot but commend itself to our
siders and cannot but result in build
ing up feeling of friendship that in
itself will be a big factor in forcing
the success of the mastery program.

Now where do you suppose the first
navel oranges in Southern California

Annual Banquet Of Class No. z.

The annual banquet of class No. I of
the Baptist Bible school is always looked
forward to by the members with great
interest and this year proved no eXcep-
ton to the rule that enthusiasm and good
fellowship are always found there.
The tables were actually weighted with
good things furnished by the Ladies'
Hospitality committee, with whom ar
engagements were made this year instead
of a caterer Chcken-pies galore other
pies, cakes and coffee, etc, in profusion,
made the problem Il serious one when
the class with guests filed into the dining
room.
Stern resolution was IN the faces of ALL
however, and the determination to con-
quer or die in the attempt was evidenced
by all But while they fought till eX
hausted, there were still worlds to con-
quer when they arose from the tables
and adjourned to the pleasant parlor for
their feast of reason and flow of soul.
1t was apparent from the responses
made by one after another that fun and
frolic were not so much in the mind this
year as right down hard work.
The greetings from the Bible class of
the Congregational Brotherhood were
brought by Arthur Clapp, who delighted
all by his clear statement as to their
aims
DIR. Cow spoke upon the topic What
our pastor wants of No :" with much
force and great earnestness His words
made a deep impression and can hardly
fair to bring things to pass.
Other speakers during the evening
We're Messrs. Maynard, Knight. Morse,
Wilson, Gehring, Daggett, Coburn, Perry
and the long time teacher of the class,
Mr.. Hawley.
A new color contest is to run to Easter
time, captained by Holland Wilson for
the Reds and George Whitney for the
Blues
Monthly meetings, week night are to be
held; special emphasis for a few weeks is
to be given to the no-license campaign
and many other live topics were discussed
with future activities in view.
The officers elected We're Leon Mixer
president; Roy Gracey, vice president
Milton Powers, secretary; Clarence Ner-
rill, treasurer, and l.. w. Hawley, teacher
