W. E. Thorne and Mr. and
Mrs. E. B. Thorne returned on
Tuesday from La Mesa Springs,
Calif., where they went last Oc
tober to spend the winter and to
look after some property interests
they have near La Mesa. While
speaking only in the highest
terms of the climate of California,
they expressed themselves as glad
to get back to their Oregon home.
The California property owned
by the Thome's is situated eight
miles from the business center
of Santiago, 2 1-2 miles from the
Old Santiago mission, the oldest
mission in the state, and the
electric line runs within 2 1-2
miles of their place. La Mesa is
in the extreme southern part of
California, within twenty miles
of the Mexican border, and the
climate is very mild the year
around, making it an ideal place
to spend the winter. W. E.
Thorne has purchased his fath
er's interest in the La Mesa
property find expects to return
in three or four weeks and join
his wife and little girl, who are
looking after things during his
absence. Mr. and Mrs. E. D.
Thorne will not go back, but have
again taken possession of their
pretty home on north Third street
which they say looks mighty
good to them after a five months'
absence. We are indebted to
the family for some fine oranges,
lemons and olives grown on their
property at I a Mesa, which are
certainly delicious specimens of
California fruit. Mr. Thorne
tells us that J. M. Greer will start
for Hillsboro next week, accom
panied by his son, and that his
wife and daughter Pearl will fol
low in June. Miss Pearl's many
friends here will be pleased to
learn that her health has rreatlv
6 improved.
Miss Nellie Hawkins and L. A.
