WONDERS OF AMERICA
OUTR|vAL OLD WORLDS
Gilbert H. Grosvenor Writes of the
Many Things to Be Seen
at Home.
No Occasion to Cross Seas in Search
of Magnificent Scenes or In
teresting Study.

How peculiarly blest are the Ameri-
can people. not only in that they have
been spared the horrors of the great
war now devastating most of Europe
but in the wonderful resources and un-
paralleled beauties of the country it
self, is strikingly set forth in a COM
munication to the National Geographic
Society from its director and editor, Gil
bert Grosvenor. \ part of the com
munication. issued as a bulletin from
the societys Washington headquarters

fact that until last year 100 American

Older Than Ancient Castles.
1T is true that one finds more
ancient culture in Europe. 1t is also
true that he finds more splendid archi-
lecture. And likewise it is true that
he finds there better art, for before
America was born into the family OF
nations Europe had castles and ca
thedrals and masterpieces of art and
sculpture.
But in that architecture which is
voiced In the glorious temples of the
sequoia grove and in the castles of the
Grand canyon. in that art which is
m1rrored in American lakes which Is
painted in geyser basins and frsscoed
upon the side walls of the mightiest
canyons, there is a majesty and an ap-
peal that the mere handiwork of men
splendid though it may be, can never
rival.
Nor is our country lacking in hal.
lowed and historic spots. Is Waterloo
where Napoleon's star of empire sci

can heart than Appomattox, where q

in existence, as she expresses It..
Three or four years ago she received
an offer from Pathe to appear in pic

ever since with the exception of short

June Caprice is a lovely blonde and
very fair little girl with sparkling
animated gray-blue eyes and glisten-
ing white teeth.
The discoverer of lovely June Ca
price believes that this little Yankee
girl has every essential requirement
of which famous picture stars are
rade. He believes, also, that any
lovely, young, capable and vivacious
girl who is willing to work hard, listen
to instructors and not get the "big
head" can be made famous through
her work.
He is going to prove his contentious
through little June Caprice.
She has gone to sort of school
of the MOVIES" learned her daily les
sons under skilled directors and been
made to study harder than any girl
ever studies in school.
No little girl going to school in
runnery under the watchful eye of
kindly sisters could be more closely
guarded than June Caprice is at this
time.
Broadway, New York, will never
see her.
Her face will be seen only on the
screen.
Mr.. Fox and her director have i'm !
posed these conditions. They wish her !
to put all of her best efforts on the

Never before has there been sucn
e real opportunity for the man or
woman with little money to make

the schools, the churches, large in

new railroad which has been promised
to the farmers by spring, there is
bound to be activity in every line
which will attract people from every
section.
The railroads made Ell Centro and
it is going to be the making of Cali
patria and also the making of some
big money for those who are wise
enough to invest in some town lots
OF small close-in acreage.
Mr.. T. A. johnson of Calipatria, who
has been in that town since the day
i. started, has number Of bargains
in lots and acreage; he has some fine
business lots that can be bought now
for just about half what they are
really worth, some small acreage that
is ready for subdivision right now, all
Of which can be bought on just lit
tie down and the balance over term
OF years.
He also has Is acres adjoining the
new $4,000 school on Main street
close to lots that sold for $500 to
$3.50 each, and remember that one
acre will make five lots. Look these

Johnson at once for price and full
particulars.
