On November 4. 1920. in eom oanv with Hev. James Lisle of Willamette university and his es timable wife we bought transpor tation from Salem over the Sou thern Pacific and Santa Fe, by way of San Francisco and Los Angeles, to San Diego. CaL, which is 134 miles south of Los Ange les. It is not necessary to say much about Oregon, except that It Is a man's job to build a railroad over hills, around mountains, through tunnels, and along winding strams, until we reached the greatest ascent near Ashland. Or., where it was necessary, to use three heavy mountain engines to get the train over the knoll. Con ditions are about the same In southern Oregon and northern California. You will know when you cross the state line by a large sign on the east side of the track on which is written In large red Utters. "Oregon and California." ,Mt. Shasta Looms. You are now fn sight of Mt. Shasta. 14.380 feet above sea level and covered with perpetual snow. Soon the train makes a sharp de cline, and stops for five minutes st Sbssta Springs in the deep rsnyon below. All passengers alight to drink from the famous spring. The water has a very nnpleasant taste, as indicated by the wry faces seen after drink ing. All on board, we started down the stream which starts here from melting snow. We stop at Red Bluff long enough to ree the smoke from Mt. Lassen vol cano. A. little later we get out of the rough country on the beau tiful level prairies known as the rice fields, where 170,000 acres were harvested this season. The crop is seeded like wheat or other small grain. Then the crop is kept under water nntil the (.Tain is matured, then the waler is drained off and the crop cut and bound like other small grain. I counted 13 steam threshers run ning as the train passed, through. The yield this season was 50 sacks weighing 104 pounds each, per acre. The crop was selling at 6 cents per pound. The next, stop waa at Oakland, where two trains loaded with passengers were run onto the largest ferry boat in the world. We atopped at Oakland over night and felt a light earth quake shock. It's a queer sensa tion. The next stop was at San Jose, where we arrived' at 10 a. m. Sunday. We attended services In what was left of the old Meth odist church after the cyclone that struck San Francisco ' and caused such destruction. Lona; Tunnels Guarded.' , Monday morning we started for Los Angeles, passing through two of the longest tunnels on the trip. It took seven minutes after we went In before we say daylight at the other end. The tunnels are guarded at either end day and night. We arrived at Los Ange les on schedule time and made connections over the Santa Fe to San Diego, our destination. San Diego has a population of 90,000. is located on San Diego bay where the first permanent settlement waa made in 1769 by the Spanish under Junipero Serra. who Intro duced the : Christian creed and built mlsslona about 40 miles apart from the-extreme end of lower California to San Francis co, on the north. 20 in all. The first mission was built at the north end of the elty of San Diego, now called "Old Town." The walla are made of adobe, and are from two to fire feet thick. Much of the furniture, cooking utensils, ovens, trays, dishes, bed ding. etc.. are worth seeing. The flowers and shrubbery are well cared for and are most beauti ful This is the mission made famous by Helen Hunt Jackson in her novel. "Ramona." This was the marriage place of Alsandro and Ramona, the hero and heroine of the story. boards, little better than shacks. In the center of the town Is the fort where Mexican noldlets are kept on guard. These soldiers are surly and never speak to a white man. Mexlcana are all boozers and a rough set. Monte Carlo Is the new town, wtih a mile race track, a grandstand about 20 rods long, and under It Is the saioon where women drink at the bar like men. Last but not least. I the world-famous gambling house. I saw 76 different devices for gambling nnder one roof, and more silver In sight than a team could pull over a poor roaa. There were 43 cars carrying 12 passengers each running between San Diego and Old Mexico dally, and it is said that not less, than 10.000 people visit Old Mexico every day. mostly tourists, but many professional gamblers. I have kodak pictures of the races. but didn't care to see the ouu fights, which are often seen there. Kodaks Not Allowed. "We will now take the reader to Point Lorn a by auto, a strip of land iuttlng out into the ocean. Mt of the bar. The road is cuarded by soldiers in uniform. each with a pistol hanging from his belt. We are asked to leave all kodaks until our return. We pass the soldiers cemetery, two wireless towers, and atop at the lighthouse. From this point we can see San Diego, Coronado Beach. Tent City, the ferry, navy baae buildings, war vessels and aeroplanes and seaplanes, dlrig ibles, etc. This is one of the best harbors In the world. The depth of water over the bar at low tide is 35 feet. It has an area of 22 sauare miles: Another place of Interest Is Bal boa park, where the exposition was held In 1915. The city owns 1400 acres of land In the corpor atlon. 'The park is well cared for and the buildings are in good re pair. A great variety of animals. birds and fish is kept here for the gratification of the public. The outdoor pipe organ presented to the city by Spreckles brothers is played every afternoon by a master organist. (It's all free). The stadium-ln a canyon on the nill-alde In the park is construct ed of concrete and steel. It cost 8150,000, seats 30,000 people and is used for drills, athletics, etc. Last but not least Is the climate. There la 10.1 Inches rainfall per year, the sun shines 323 days ev ery year. , No frost to damage crops, temperature from 65 to 90 during; the day, cool at night. It is necessary to have a moderate fire, night and morning. I forgot to mention that the Mexicans do the greater part of the public work and the Japa do the gardening. Gas is nsed extensively, and there are 20 miles of pipe lain in 8an Diego. "Will say goodbye to our frienda and start up the coast. OH District Described. . Stop at Whittier. 14 miles southeast of Los Angeles. This city was named after John Green leaf Whittier. and has a popula tion of 10.000, located near the Puante bills, as they are called. This Is In the oil district, and derricks are numerous. The wells are often clos together, so that one small engine can pump as many as 17 wells. These wells produce from three barrels per day up to 10.000. The crude oil Is worth from $2 to $3 per barrel. This industry furnishes work for hundreds of men. We were out to see the country, and 'went northeast to Pomona and Ontario, where' we saw one of the finest nurseries on the coaat. - Then to ML- Rubldoux. overlooking the Santa Ana river, where thousanda go on Easter morning to tee the sun rise and for religious worship. jusi a nine farther east we come to that beautiful summer resort. Seaside. This is a city of beautiful homes, churches and business blocks. The hotel on live with his wife, but me gov ernment Uoa ;not support the women. Tbene buildings are lo cated in a beautiful park:' A short distance to the east is the silent -Hty where thousands lie waiting for the first resurrec tion. We will take you to Patadena. nine miles northeast of Lo An geles. This is a city of 75.000 and is thought 'to be the most beautiful city, in California. Ita wide streets, fine hotels, elegant business blocks, spacious parks. lovely shade and. fruit trees are unsurpassed. 11 is also thought to be the most wealthy. On Orange Grov avenue alone there are 100 millionaires.. From any street In the city Mt. Lowe and Mt. Wilson are In plain sight. Will speak of only one park, the Kuscb gardens, which belong to the heirs of, the rich brewer. A paved street runs through the center from north to south, it Is fenced and guards at the gate.
