Orange County
Breaking Faith
With Riverside

Chester VI. Kline, candidate for
State Senator from Riverside coun-
ty, returned last night from a two
day speaking tour in Orange coun-
ty with the assurance that he would
carry 60 per cent of the votes of
that district
During his tour he spoke at Or
ange, Anaheim, Huntington Beach
and twice at Santa Ana. addressing
a total of more than 5000 persons
The Anaheim Plain Dealer yes
terday carried full column on the
front page telling of Kline s meet
ing at Orange, during which a
Kline for SENATOR Club was
formed with Rev. George A. Fran
els, pastor of the Grange Baptist
Church, as president, A F. Koepsal,
secretary, and John King TREASURER.
There were 275 persons 1t the ban
quet, according to the newspaper
account.
In part the Plain Dealer said:
"The political move to put Orange
county in the position of breaking
faith by violating a % year agree
ment with Riverside has aroused
resentment all over the county. 1t

1t seems that roadside camping is
changed radically since the motor
car has opened up new roads. Most
gratifying of all, the camp outfits

as to harmonize with :ne most ex-
pensive models. Gasoline stoves,
CRATES and broilers for fires in the
open, more tractable than a gas
range, fold to small compass and
are stored away beneath the seat or
somewhere else out of sight. Beds
mysteriously disappear and are
easily stored away on the running
board and tents that are really wat
erproof, complete with floor and

did not care for any of those
things and l didn t fail to notice
that after a few days of this So

There was no use talking-I was

A new and interesting feature

Mr.. Davis, as is well known, is

Monterey Will
Have the Sierra
Pilgrimage, Fall

MONTEREY, August 23.-It is
not often that purely local cele-
bration, planned TO commemorate
some local event, and to provide en-
tertainment and recreation for To-
cal people, attains international
significance. Such, however, is the
case with the Sierra Pilgrimage, the
big event planned for Monterey
peninsula this fall, in cOmmemora-
tion of the 140th anniversary of
the death of Father Junipero Ser
ra, father of the California Missions.
Perry Newberry, director general
of the Pilgrimage, was recently
surprised to learn from the mana
ger of one of the largest news dis
tributnig agencies in the nation,
that already papers in four South
American counties had cabled for a
story, complete in all details.
This man also told Mr.. Newber-
~ that various Spanish newspapers
using the news dispatch service Of
his concern, had evinced an interest
in the event. These stories were
supplied by the Pilgrimage, and
broadcasted by the news service.
Fr. Sierra, the motif for the cele'
bration this fall, was the man who
founded the present San Carlos
church in Monterey, and the Mis-
sion San Carlos del Carmelo, at
Carmel-by-the-Sea When, after
many years of work among the In
dians of this section, the sainted
padre died, his remains were lald
to rest under the chaneel of the old
mission. Years passed and the old
mission began tumbliag down. The
facts of the PADRES burial were
forgotten. Then one day the care
taker of the place lifted the large
slabs on the ehancel floor, and
found the graves of FIR. Sierra and
his eo-workers.
This news was carried to Rev. Fr
Ramon NJ. Mestres, who at once
undertook the restoration of the
mission. Later, in eollaboration
with j. J. Mora, of Carmel ano
Pebble Beach, one of America
foremost sculptors, he designed the
sareophagus which is to- enclose The
remains of Fr. Sierra. This viii b'
unveiled ITO public eye first on Oe
tober u, the opening date of Tho
celebration. The remainder of the
week will be given over to tyPica
