Beyond a question Of doubt, San
Diego IS the lovelest. most charm

land" in this country. ought to
know for I've been registering from
san Diego for 10, these 80 years.
And a man who wouldn't boost for

So. having told the truth about

we'll proceed with the story.
San Diego, came to be, because
OF the efforts OF two Fathers.
Junipero Sierra. a sure-enough hero
saint. was a Franciscan monk who
came here from old Mexico with a
small band Of followers and estab-
lished the first California mission
at San Diego de Alcala, five miles
up the San Diego river from Old
Town.
Founders Died "Broke"
That was In 1853 and It was the
first European settlement on the Pa
cifc coast Of what is now the United
States.
A century later, in 1868, Father"
Alonzo f. Horton came down from
San Francisco in a side-wheel steam
er. looked upon the sage brush, cac-
tus. chapparal and the greasewood
covering what is now the business
and apartment section OF the city
(the settlement being located at Ola
Town, four miles away and bought
the whole tract at &c cents the acre
I suppose the extra cent was war
tax"
Then Father Horton surveyed his
purchase, laid It all out In little
blocks without. alleys. so as TO have
plenty of corner lots to sell, gave
away valuable sites TO every kind OF
church which could muster any sort
OF showing. gave away more for
schoolhouses, public buildings,
plazas etc, and finally crowned all
by a magnificent donation Of 140O
acres in the heart Of the city for a

Father" unless It was because he
hadn't any children.
Value Higher Now.
The other day one OF those corner
lots bought at 26 cents the acre half
century ago, was leased on a basis
OF $4,000 the front foot, which as
anyone can see is a distinct advance
over the purchase price.
Well, then, here you have the
town, a city OF about 10000 civilians
and maybe 10000 soldiers, sailors,
marines and a ~, ors, with their off,

Diego Is the chief army, aviation,
marine and naval headquarters OF
this part OF the world and as you
can easily ascertain from any Of the
great advertising and publicity or
ganizations of the city. is the pride
OF all army and navy men, some
s2O.OO0.OOO having been spent here
in bases and buildings OF various
sorts.
who is the most interesting citi-
zen OF San Diego? Well. in a COM
munity where you know most every
body, It is blamed dangerous TO get
too specific. One might start an ar
gument.
There is John d. Spreckels and
Bill Kettner. and a thronging host
OF other names each Of which IS en-
titled to a lot OF consideration. But
out of them ell, two persons stand
out, in my opinion, as typifying the
spirit of the great semi-arid west,

10 a report OF the commission on

deep differences were manifested,

the committee suggests that funda-

1. What degree OF unity in faith
will be necessary in a reunited
shurch?
3. Is statement of this one faith
IN the form of a creed necessary or
desirable?
3. II so. what creed should be
Hsed2 Or what other forrnulary
would be desirable?
4. What are the proper uses OF a
sreed and OF a confession OF faith

what the church Is and the place

heard so much about. What keeps
Il back7"
Why It's Back"
In tho roar OF laughter which
greeted this query no ono thought
to make answer But OF course, the
answer IS simple. The twin forces
holding tho back country back have
been lack OF water and lao< OF
roads.
Today. the last OF the great water
systems Is being developed by the
Santa Fe Railroad Company Hun
dreds Of miles OF paved trunk lines
and laterals are rapidly girding
mountains and valleys. and tomor-
row. San Diego county, the most
southwesterly political subdivision
OF continental United States, will
be fragrant with the odor from
thousand citrus orchards in winter
and thousand peach and plum and
apricot orchards IN sprlngtlme. A
thousand carloads OF winter vege-
tables raised on her frostless. or
nearly frostless mesns will go out
20 every part OF the country, and a
lot OF folks will make q lot OF
money. But best OF all. homes. just
simple, little, flower -bedecked homes
OF mighty comfort. will be built here
for those folks who are getting tired
OF the rush and whirl Of the big city
and who would rather live 10 years
longer IN a $4,000 bungalow than
pass away at so In a 100000 apart
ment house.
San Diego's water system, by
which pure mountain water Is
brought down from the mountains,
has been developed at great cost
at least, s6,000.000, maybe more
anyhow too much for a city OF this
size; and millions more have been
spent on the exposition grounds in
the park. containing what probably
Is the most picturesque group OF
public buildings in the west: mill
lions more have been spent on
sewers, streets. municipal wharves.
etc. and in consequence the city has
a big bonded debt and a pretty stiff
tax rate.
But AL in ALL
The city government is a hybrid
affair with a fuli-fedged. paid city
council and mayor, and s6000-sal-
aried city manager thrown in for
good measure. Either plan would
be fine. but no one yet has been
able to understand why both man
ager and paid council are needed.
