Fire was licking over the dry noun
tain lands in the section where San

five mile fronts and threatening
ranch buildings, grain fields and
grazing lands.
One hundred men from this town
are fighting the blaze on the Fres-

EARLY MAIL SERVICE

| 1t is well for California that i'm.
provements in mail service kept
pace with other developments dur
ing the past seventy-five years.
How it would hinder progress today
If, instead of the air mail service
we enjoy, it took seven or eight
| months for letter from New York
to reach Los Angeles! Such was
often the case for 10 years after
the gold rush. At that time the
Pacific Mail Steamship Company
had the contract TO csrry a month
" mail between New York and San
Francisco at an annual subsidy Of
100000. Its service was slow and
rnsat, sfactCry, but the company
su coasfully opposed the entrance

stage carrying overland nail left

to San Antonio.
