A TRIP TO CALIFORNIA

We are inbe dteded to Miss Amelia
I'd r the following account
of her interest ting
A trip to Sd Diego and Tia Juana
Old Mexico taken from Los Angeles,
by Mr.. and Mrs. Self. Miss Pauline
Self, Mr.. R. Eggleston, Mr.. and Mrs.
R. Edwards and Miss Kirkpatrick.
Beyond a do ubt one of the most in
teresting. bea utiful and wonderful
motoring tour in California is over
the picturesque coast route to a
Diego. The r Dads twist and wind for
1877 miles thru orange groves, oil
fields, walnut groves, among noun
tains and along the sea shore.
TIE entire drive is on California's
famous concre etc roads and the route
follows the X ings Highway and pass
es thru Whittier, Fullerton, Anaheim
Santa, Anna, Tustin and after sixty
miles Of driving we arrive at San
Juan Capistra ma. Here is located the
ruins of an did mission built in 1776,
which even low in it's state OF ruin
bears evidence of former charm. To-
day may be s cen standing the COLON
AIDES and bell towers which were
built by the indians. 1t was the head
quarters for the Indians for the work
of civilizing them, teaching them the
christian religion and useful indus
tries.
The materials used I nthe mission
were adobe sandstone, wood mortar
and rawhide. Boulders were used for
the foundation n. We then travel along
the shore passing thru La Jolla to
Sunset Cliffs, where we see the most
beautiful variety of wild flowers. San
Diego is our next stop where the first
mission was built in 1869 by Father
jumpers Ser ra, and where later the
q. S. flag was first raised by Gen.
John C. FIR mont. The first palm
tree of California was raised here
146 years ago. The Balboa exposi-
ton park covers 1900 acres where the
soldiers wei . stationed during the
war. In this park is the large pipe
On our way back we see the Stadium
Ramond's m arriage place and Point
Iona. Then we cross the San Diego
Bay by ferry and go thru the Del Co.
ronado Hotel and Tent City . These
tents are like little houses and are
built right along the ocean front.
There must be 500 of them. Our next
trip is to Tia Juana Old Mexico. and
we see people betting from 100 to
5000 dollars on horse races. The wo-
men join the men in betting. There
are hundreds of nice race horses
here. Here Is located the famous Mo-
nte Carlo Of America, the great gamb-
ling resort. Then we cross the river
to the Fort where saloons, curios and
Bull rings are very prominent. At
the dividing line of California and
Mexico your car is searched by AM
erican cuctoms officers. Then after
stepping across to Mexico the Mexi-
can police search the If. People
going over can have all the whiskey
they can drink but a very strict law
exists about smuggling it across the
line. They do not raise much here
and the land is mostly sand. The
Indians and Mexicans do some very
clever work. California is astate
where almost anything can be raised
but only thing 1 wonder about is,
How do they have Christmas without
and snow? Blackfoot is a great
town and am glad to be back among
my friends again.

NEW BRIDGE OVER
 RIVER IN MYSTIC
Structure is Great Boon to Motor Tourists Who Are Going East
 And West in State

Mystic, July 1o.-A new bridge spans the Mystic river adding one more convenience not only to towns people but to the uncounted thous- ands of autoists who travel over the shore road from New London to the cities and beaches of Rhode Island or in q reverse direction.
 Speaking more boardly it adds to the development of the state highway system parale,ing the sound shore fol those who go east and west
 It is quite probable that the earliest settlers had footbridse over the Mystic river which later was equal to the horse drawn vehicles of the times. Town history shows that in the late sos of the last century a drawbridge was built with the moya- ble span drawn over rollers by horses whenever craft wished to go into the river to the shipyards or leave them for the open sound. In 1856 a third bridge was built and in 1904 when trolley lines were laid on the highway the structure was rebuilt. In recent years the bridge was matter of un- due expense and in 1920 the select men started to have new one put in. Work was started in July of last year and today the completed structure was formally put into use
 In spite of the saying that there is nothing new under the sum-" the new bridge is said to be the first of its kind built in the country. It is bal ance beam design with concrete coun- terweights The bridge is 215 feet long and the lift SS feet.

Money for W ork .

The voters apparently do not know that the owners of the condemned buildings must stand the cost of tear ing them down. Many believed the town had to pay for that. The com mission however, took care of that end of it and when the members awarded the benefits and damages, they included the cost of tearing down the buildings and also the cost of laying a new sidewalk from the sec tion where the new store fronts will start to the proposed street line.
 The only thing the town will have to pay will be for completing the roadway in front of the stores and at the corner which will be cut off. The telephone polcs will also he removed as the electric wires have been placed in an underground subway by the F. f. Ley Co. of Springfield. The re- moving of the poles allows for a big corner and clears the center of a great deal of overhead wires,
 The Tracey. Driscoll Co. have no- tiied the selectmen that the work of tearing down the old buildings will not be started until the entire front of their new block is completed. That will give them a chance to &C., curately lay out the new fronts of the

daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. Chas. P.
Chazal, was the hostess yesterday aft
ernoon at lawn party. She enter
tanned her little friends at the home
of her grandparents, Mr.. and Mrs. j.
R. Dewey, where they had the best
of times playing games on the lawn,
enjoying the swing and the sandpile.
The pleasant afternoon was somewhat
broken by light shower but it was
soon oyer and the furry which was
caused by the small guests being hur-
ried under shelter stopped the games,
but they were resumed again shortly
with renewed enjoyment.
When refreshment time came, Mrs.
Chazal, her mother, Mrs. Dewey and
Misses Marian Dewey, Dorothy
Schneider and Anita Chazal served
delicious. crisp cookies, ice cream
cones and candy, after which the
small hostess, with due impressive
ness cut the big birthday cake, iced
and surmounted with candles, which
had been placed on a prettily decorat-
ed table. Although this was not the
anniversary of little Mary, only few
days had elapsed and many of the
little friends bearing this In mind
presented her with gifts.
Not only did the little guests have
a happy time but the small hostess
enjoyed herself to the utmost and
when the afternoon hours began to
draw to close and the time for good
byes to be said, the regret at parting
was mutual, and the afternoon win be
remembered as very happy time for
all present.
