California on
Wheels" Explained

A large number of citizens have
expressed desire to know more OF
the plan outlined by DR.. George
Wharton James in his lecture the 9TH
er evening before the editors, as to
advertising California throughout the
east and Canada. We have therefore
deemed it advisable to interview DR..
James and Mr.. E. H. Willy in regard
to the matter. The result is the fol-
lowing presentation of facts:
Mr.. Willy for number of years
has been, and still is, the director Of
the Long Beach municipal band. This
band is part of the city's regular
family, just the same as its police,
fire and law departments, etc. For
several years the city has sent Mr..
Willy and the band out throughout
the state and Arizona, Utah and Ne
vada as an advertising proposition for
its own Individual benefit, which they
have found far more than repays the
Imperial Valley press., 1914-02-28
The Press Guarantees Circulation Greater
than the Combined Circulation OF any
Other Three Imperial Valley Papers

tremendous outlay involved. Not only
does the band cost the city of Long
Beach $4,000 a year, but they spend
an additional sum in the making of
this annual tour.
The present plan which, however
has been worked successfully for the
past nine years, is larger, broader,
fuller development of the same idea,
but applied to all the communities
of the state who desire to avail them
selves of it,
Here is the plan in brief outline:
Next September a special train will
leave Los Angeles. On this train Mr..
WHY'S concert band is quartered, to-
gether with DIR. James as lecturer, a
full outfit for making and showing
moving and other pictures, 100000
booklets boosting the various sections
of California that are financing the
plan and special representative from
each county or section, when desired.
The itinerary includes the principal
Pacific states, all Western Canada,
the middle and lake states, all the
Atlantic states down to New Orleans
and then the southern states as far
Imperial Valley press., 1914-02-28

ST. Louis was tried. He got so weak
and thoroughly run down that he de-
clares he could not walk more than
a hundred yards without resting.
Few people understand that catarrh
is a constant drain on the system.
The discharge of mucus which is
going on in such cases is largely COM
posed of blood serum, and is great
waste. Sooner or later it will weaken
the strongest man.
According to reports received from
Mr.. Johnson, he was in a desperate
condition, but he found relief from
his trouble. We will let him say how
he found it. His own words say:
My friends told me to take Pc
runa, and l did so. l now feel that
Peruna has saved my life. 1t is the
best medicine on earth, and / would
not be without it,
This seems almost too good to be
true. No doubt there are some read
ers that will think so. The above
statements, however, can be verified
by writing MT. johnson.
Every home should be provided with
the last edition of "The Ills of Life"
sent free by the Peruna Co., Colum-
bus, Ohio.

west as Texas, then home through
Arizona and New Mexico,
This tour covers about 1900 miles
and reaches all the chief communities
of the country. 1t is fully advertised
and described in all the city and su-
burban newspapers and thus reaches
the enormous sum of fully 50,000,000
readers.
At least two concerts and lectures
are given every day. The first one is
early in the afternoon, preferably in
the largest park of the city, and un-
der the auspices of the city and coun-
ty officials and all the schools, cham
bers of commerce and civic organi;a
tions. Motion pictures of these crowds
are taken and are used as a drawing
card to attract the audiences for the
night concert and lecture which are
given in the largest auditoriums avail
able, under the auspices of the wom-
ems clubs. All these afternoon anG
evening performances the various at
fractions, agricultural and horticul-
tural possibilities, industries, civic
improvements, churches, schools and
other important advertising features
of the California communities repre-
sented are presented in forceful and
eloquent manner by DR.. James, whose
well known enthusiasm about all
things Californian insures the high
est interest of his hearers.
At this time the booklets are dis
tributed, when the crowds are eager
to know more about the wonderful
land that has just been described to
them.
Where communities send their own
representatives. on the train arrange
ments are made during the day for
them to deliver their own special lee
lures on their own specific communi-
ties. California on wheels provides
moving pictures, especially taken for
this purpose, slides, operator and hall,
and thus each community has the
opportunity of setting forth its own
attractions before every place the spe-
cial train visits. This local repre-
sentative can also take along special
literature and thus devote his whole
attention to the boosting of his own
special secion. In this way inquirers
can be handled on the spot for your
direct benefit.
California on Wheels visits, with its
moving picture camera and lecturer,
every community and district or coun-
ty represented. Each district deter
mines what pictures it wishes to have
taken and what shall be said about
them. The booklet (half million of
which are printed) is full illustrated
with exquisite half tones, and the
story of each community written in
the most attractive and interesting
way to arouse the attention of read
ers and lead them to desire to make
their homes in the midst of the scenes
described At the end of each book a
finely engraved map of California is
inserted, showing all the railroads
and telling how each community rep
resented may be reached.
This is no new and untried play with
Professor Wiley and DIR. James. Both
of them fully understand reaching
the vast numbers of eastern, western
and southern audiences and infuenc-
ing them to desire above all things
to move as speedily as possible to
make their homes in the glorious land
of California.
