From Bandon they went by land to San Francisco, spending a few days at the Exposition, which by the way Mr. Webb states is one of the great est of its kind ever built. From there they traveled half way across the continent to central Illinois, for a visit at Mr. Webb's former home and with his parents who still reside there. Returning they came by way of the Northern Pacific to Seattle, to Portland and Roseburg. Mr. Webb talked with numerous business men in the places visited and obtained a comprehensive idea as to conditions. He found that although times were being called hard in many places, that on the whole business conditions were improving and that everywhere a more optimistic view is being taken. The Illinois farm ers raised large crops the past year and are prosperous. Financial con ditions afre growing better every where. They enjoyed their vacation much but were glad to get back to Bandon.
