A Wonderful Scenic Panorama

Even in seeing these famous Gardens you are seeing but a small part of Catalina.
 The best way is to plan to spend at least three or four days, so that you may get up into Santa Catalina's mountains.
 Here are some of the finest views that the world affords. In one sweep of the eye one sees stupendous panorama combining vast seas and rugged moun- tains that will never be forgotten.
 You may rent horses for these moun- tain trips or take the trails easily on foot.

WOODS FOR AIRPIANE PRO-
 PELlERS
Scientific American)

There are two main classes of air plane prOpellers depending upon their use for training planes or combat ma chimes. The former are smaller, for use with motors of comparatively low horsepower. Run at correspondingly low speed, they are not so exacting in the woods used. The combat type is used with motors of great power. op- erated at terrific speed and given the most severe field service, necessitating the greatest care and discrimination in the materials used. Few species are considered equal to the requirements.
 For the combat type of propellers the woods now used are the true mahogany from tropical America and it's close re- lation from Africa, and two native woods. namely, white oak Quarter sawn) and black walnut. For the train ing propellers the list is extended to in- clude the so-called Philippine ma hogany, black cherry, yellow and black birch. and sometimes yellow noplar. es- pecially for the "penguins"

Thousand Leagues Under the Sea" will think you are in Vernes famous NAUTILUS.
 Look through the boats bottom-there is an ocean goldfish, brilliantly colored, and flashing red-gold light as he crosses the suns rays which penetrate the water.
 And over there is "sea cucumber" one of the lowest forms of animal life curled up on a rock.
 Other filmed beauties, silver-hued, green, blue, striped, spotted, speckled and black, quietly loaf or dart among the beautiful sea violets and kelp.
 And if one keeps sharp lookout he may a sea horse, ghostish, sea porcupine, leop- ard shark or an octopus.
 You are looking sometimes through 80 feet of water, yet you see these objects as clearly as though you saw through air.
 It will be a revelation to you and it will thrill the children, for this is enchanted land with some of the worlds strangest inhabitants.

But even more captivating are those most graceful of divers and swimmers, the seals, which you see in their native haunts on this er-journey.
 From the deck of the boat, and within few feet, you see them climbing and plunging of great boulders in the sea.
 A Great Hour Even on the return trip you frequently see wild mountain goats as the boat passes close to shore.
 In the air are pelicans, fish-eagles, sea-pie cons, cormorants and the like-a score of the strange birds of the sea.

The beautiful waving sea ferns, mosses and other ocean foliage that appear before you sug- gest the tender care and dainty touch of mer- maids.
 The scores of different sea-animals and fish of all colors show you the reality of ocean life as they swim or move lazily about, undis- turbed by the boat--an idea of it that no writer could portray.
 It is Natures own picture. It has never been really illustrated or described in any book.

NOTHING CROOKED
 ABOUT B|G SERIES
Owner and Manager Satisfied
 Players Did Their Level Best

Chicago, Dec. 15.-One tangible re- suit of the recent American League meeting is ,thc removal of suspicion for the present at least, from the Worlds Series of last October. C. A. Comiskey and Kid Gleason got to- gether in New York and reported to each other the results of their indi- vidual and cooperative efforts to un- ly circulated rumors affecting the honesty of certain members of the league champions.
 1T can say" said Comiskcp, that we have discovered nothing to indi- cate that the team doublecrossed me or the public last fall. Do not get the impression we have quit investigat ing, I am still working on the affair, and will go the limit 10 get any evi- dence to support the truth of these charges. And if land the goods on any of my players I will see to it that there is no place in organized baseball for them. There will be no white washing or compromising with crooks, but as vet not one bit of reliable evi~ dencc has turned up
 Although the scandal is probably known to the fans 1t may be neces- sary to inform a few. The accusation was that six, seven or eight of the White SoX, the number varies, met in a hotel in Boston or New York and split $50, ,00O to $100,000 furnished by gambling clique to let Cincinnati win. F
 The rumors obtained wide circula- tion after Cincinnati won the two games. Comiskcy engaged detectives. and every move of every player was watched. Later he offered $l0, 00o reward for evidence that would con- firm the rumors. The attempt to run down the gossip led to nothing. Jones got 1t from Brown and Brown from Smith. The blowing up of usually successful pitchers and failure to hit in the pinches gave the fans a jolt they could not explain. Chicago fans lost $500,000 it is estimated, on the first two games. Then they found it hard to get any even money in the next two except for the series. When the games stood 3 and , in favor of

NAZIMOVA'S ART is WORLD
FAMOUS.
Star of 1.-THE Red Lantern" Has I'm
broken Record of Stage and
Screen Successes

Nazimova, star of the sensational
screen version of Edith Wherry's
THE Red Lantern" which comes to
the Lyric theatre, for two days en-
gagement, next Monday and Tuesday
is reconized as one of the most dis
tinguished actresses of the age. She
was born in Russian Crimea, in a
town on the shore of the Black Sea,
but as child was taken to Switzer-
land, and in Geneva was instructed
in the violin. At twelve she returned
to Russia, and made her first public
appearance by playing violin solo
at Christmas concert in her native
town. She then went to Odessa to
continue her violin studies, but took
the dramatic course instead. Her first
stage experience was under the direc-
ton of the great Stanislawsky, at the
Artistic Theatre, Moscow. AS leading
woman of Russian stock company,
she played nearly 200 parts in wide
variety of productions.
Since coming to America, Nazim-
ova has played both in Russian and
English. Ever since she came to the
English speaking stage her career
has been an unbroken record of sue
cesses. In Ibsen's "A Doll House,"
"Hedda Gabler" and Little Eyolf'
she won the highest laurels. She then
turned to comedy and in THE Count
ess Coquette," made an equaiv
strong impression.
Departing from her European rep
etoire. she started in Bella Donna"
Turning to vaudeville, she attained
great popularity in "War Brides"
the only play based on the grea.
world war, which is conceded to be
of permanent value. She made her
screen debut in a motion picture ver-
sion of this play, and she later re-
sumed her work on the speaking
stage and appeared in "'Ception
/ Shoals"

FARMERS WILL SPEND $4,000,
900
Enormous Sum for Farm Electric
Light and Power

The other day | was reading an
article in one or the largest farm
journals" said Mr.. Johnson Of
Peter Johnson g. Sons, Inc, the local
Lally Light dealer, lin which the
statement that more than $4,000
10000 will be spent this year by the
farmers of this country for home
electric light and power plants, in
stallation, wiring, and accessory ap-
-paratus.
When / first read this article,
am frank to say that was some
what startled. $4,000, 100000 is cer-
tainly a large sum, but, on more
mature reflection, / am inclined to
believe that the statement above
made is correct.
1T is hard to suggest better
way in which this money could be
spent than in bringing to some half
million dwellers in farm homes the
comfort and convenience OF electric
light and power Farm homes" said
Mr.. Johnson, ARE everywhere to be
found that are daily proving the
value of properly constructed and
properly installed electric light and
power plants. That is particularly
true of the farmers in this commun-
ity. Tens of thousands of progressive
farm owners all over e,country are
considering their purchase. These
men want information that will help
in a wise choice of plant, both as
to character and size.
THE prospective buyer whom
prefer selling is the one who is
truly wise. This sort OF man is
guided in his purchase of an electric
light and power plant by exactly the
same considerations that would i'm
fluence him in a selection of an auto
mobile or any piece of high grade
farm machinery"
