 CITY IN ITSELF
Continued from page l.)

canal San Diego must become an entrepot of great importance. The Exposition was planned and the marvellous feat was accomplished of raising by popular subscription a million dollars to finance it; then the city voted millions more, the State voted more still, and soon there began to rise in the great park hitherto but vast potentiality as city pleasure ground-the walls of city which was to house tenn porary affair, an exposition, but the buildings of which are to remain as long as steel and concrete shall last, in the service of the public.
 Many persons will find the evolu- ton of San Diego itself the most in- teresting thing that the Exposition will reveal to them. It is won derful exhibit of city building, of the development of civic pride, but that is for the sociologist, the scien- tist and the city planner The av- craze traveller will have seen cities elsewhere, if none so fair; he will have admired other scenery, if none more entrancing; he will have mingled with other people who were. ihospitable, though with none hay ing warmer hearts; but he will not have seen in his travels anything that will cause him more pleasure tor give him more instruction than Ithe Exposition City and its marvel ous features.
 ! The best that California and the Brest of the world has to offer will be ! brought to it's very feet. Even the famed oranged groves of California, where the art Of citrus culture has | reached its highest development un- der the fostering care of the scien- itists employed by the State and the ! Nation, will be illustrated by groves respectfully planted and even now producing fruit beside the tile-roof- led mission buildings of the Exposi- ltion
 We hear much in these days of textreme modernity about city plan ing and city building. Were there to be no Exposition both might with profit be studied in San Diego itself; but at the Exposition one will find city by itself, with every feature that goes to make up mod ern municipality. There will be every comfort and convenience that can be devised for the crowds of ipeople that will throng the build. ings and grounds. Provision must be made for 5O,00O visitors a day, land on especial occasions for many more. There are police stations, emergency hospitals, fire depart ment, postofice, telegraph and tele phone stations, rest rooms, public reading and writing rooms, press headquarters, complete water system and an equally complete sewer system as part of scientific Ip'an of sanitation. It would te difficult to suggest anything for the comfort and pleasure of the public that will not be provided
 l It should not be overlooked that that the amusement feature is being carefully attended to. The Isthmus | will be what the Midway Plaisance was to the Columbian Exposition. | Along the reproduction of the big Canal will be arranged the best amusement features that can be se- cured. In granting concessions for amusements the management has culled only those which have come up to the highest standard and the result will be an unequalled collec- ton ofnovel and entertaining amuse- ments. Not only the children but their elders will appreciate this
