celebrated recreation center is max
ing plans for entertaining the lar
gest influx Of summer visitors in its
history. The wonderful location OF

it a most favored spot. Nowhere

couver to the Mexican line, is there
beach like that of Long Beach. 1t

Of yards.
Between the city proper and the
beach is located the famous pike
or Walk of Thousand Lights"

Beach bathhouse, a splendidlY
equipped indoor plunge with a ca
pacity of over four thousand bath
ers daily. Bathers can go back and
forth between the plunge and the
surf at will, as the ocean is but a
few steps distant.
Long Beach is located but short
distance from San Pedro-the har-
Dor of Los Angeles-which is the
headquarters of the Pacific fleet. A
large number of warships are con-
stantly riding at anchor short dis
lance off shore, where they can be
visited by sight seers. Los Angeles

its myriad attractions--is only 20
miles away. A few miles out to sea
from Long Beach is Santa Catalina
Island, one of the most famous re-
sorts in California and the paradise
of deep sea fishermen who obtain
the finest sport in the world, ang-
ling for tuna and sword fish off its
shores.
Many people come to Long Beach
expecting to find merely a delight
full seaside resort, and are surprised
to discover that it is also high
class residential city as we'll as an
immense manufacturing and indus
trial center. The increase in indus
trial plant investments from $25,-
600 in 1900 to SIG, 462,500 in 1920 Is
considered phenomenal. In 1921
California stood eighth in manufac-
turing In the United States, and
