The Advance from Now till Jane 35 cts, THE WINGHAM Letter from Los Angeles (Continued from page 1) old maid's room, it had nothing but a rock formation in the shape of a wash- board and a bushel of hair pine. The girls who visit it leave a hair pin and theywill have success in matrimony, From the cave we drove to the Gar- den of Gods. It is a wide valley be- tween the foothills and the mountains where the Manitou Indiaus used to hold their important meetings. The bare rocks rise perpendicularly from the level which is grassy, some of them have shapes resembling, animals and persons. We left Colorado Springs about six on Friday evening and were in Santa Fe, New Mexico in the morning. Here and there on the way we saw Mexieaa houses on the prairie, There would be miles and miles of prairie covered:with sage bush without a sight of a house. Then by a little stream or where it was irrigated we would see a village, Adobe is the name given to a Mexican house, it is just one story with a flat roof, the walla are of mud plastered on the outside, their opens are outside in the yard, they look like a little mound of clay. Santa Fe is a very old town, it orig. inally belonged to the Indians but they were driven out by the Spanish years ago, We saw the oldest church in America there, They have many beautiful buildings too. One of the best was the Slcottisb Rite Cathedral of Free Maeonry, it is built on the plan of the Alhambra in Spain. In another building we -sere in the room where Wallace wrote the most of Ben liar. There were a great many Indian curio shops along the streets where the Indians were busy weaving. We got cushion toys as souvenirs. Our next stop was at Albnqueri.re for an hour. -A very Large hotel built after the Spanish mission plan and an Indian Museum on the same plan were the places of interest hero, They were built around a plaza of green grass with a fountain in the centre, We saw the equawe weaving rugs here, one of them had her baby strapped in an Indian cradle. 'You must pay the Indians if you wish to take their photos, We went a little farther on to Islets, a typical Mexican Indian village, their houses are of mud also. We were through two of them, I was suprised to find them so spotlessly clean, we were also in their church. QM wale loaded with small green oranges for the next crop, After lem• onade and having a photo of the crowd taken we went for a drive around the city. There we saw the .moet beauti- ful homes we have yet eeen on our trip. I'aradena is called the million- aire city. Our next stop was at Redondo Beach, about 8 in the afternoon, here we got our first chancre to dip in the Nacific Ocean, There is a large bath- ing house, where we watched a game of water polo for a while. We also found moonstones along the beach. Next morning we landed in San Diego, the most southwesterly point on our trip, we could see mountains of Alexic°, sixteen miles away, In tbe morning we had an auto ride to Point Lorna, there is a wireless station there with which they may communicate with Japan under favorable conditions, In the afternoon we had time to go through some of the shops and theu went to an afternoon tea at the Coron- ado Hotel, it is very grand and quite modern. They say that is w he re Royality stays when they visit this country. Next day we visited the Exposition at San Diego, it is not as large as Toronto but the grounds and buildings are a great deal better. Of course Tor- onto could not rival the flowers and vegetation of the south, We did not suffer in the least from the heat while there and wore alight coat all day, the ocean breeze keeps the air cool. We got to Los Angeles yesterday morning, it Is by far the busiest place we have been yet. Id the morning we were driving around the city in autos. In the afternoon we went to the Uni• vereal City etit n. few miles. It is where nearly all the moving picture films of the world are made. It was quite a revelation to see how itis done. We are going out now so I must stop. Love to all from Margaret and myself. Your loving daughter, Edna. We reached the grand Canyon of Arizona in the morning of July lith. There is not touch at • the top of the Canyon, just a very large hotel, curio shops and summer cottages. The Can- yon itself is far grander than I thought it could be, you can stand at the top and look down, but you have no idea of the distance, a tent large enough to seat two hundred looked the size of a handkerchief. About thirty-two of our party tried to get mules to go down the Canyon but they were all spoken for, so we started out to walk then, the path is cut out of the almost perpendicular rock and winds around as it decends. From three to four feet is the average width of the patb, when you begin the decent even that doesn't feel very wide, bat you soon get used to it. From Bogie of the stories we had heard we had been led to expect a twelve inch path. Going,down was not so bad even though the ,dust was inches deep and the eun blazing hot. The only water is at the bottom of the Canyon, so we had to carry a bottle of it with us, While Ave were resting by the spring the riding parties came along, the guides seemed very much surprised to eee so many who had walk- ed. They enjoyed telling us of the num- ber ofexhaueted ones they wereobliged to haul out of the Canyon every day, they fully expected to havo to take half of our crowd out; however there were only five who were not able to make the grade back, To walk is one way to appreciate the Canyon. I never knew before how high three thousand feet was, as you are forced to rest frequently you have time to admire the beautiful coloring and r u g gp d granduer of the rocks. The least ehid about sore muscles the better, one of girls walked lame for nearly a week, The 'Canyon Glide" was quite the latest for a few days. Monday we left the Canyon and that night crossed the desert, it was 1100 at 2 a. m. I was very glad we were able to cross it at night, In the morning we were among the orange groves of California, of course the;i fruit is nearly all picked. At Redlands we were taken for a drive in carriages out through the orange groves. 'rhe streets are lined with palms, pepper trees, encaliptus and others which we do not have in Ontario, the geraniums are in hedges as high has our betide in some places, the roses are just about done blooming but there are a great variety of other flowering plants in full bloom. We got to Riverside at 8 o'clock in the afternoon and stayed till midnight. First we went for a street car ride to see sonde of the city. We met at the Glenwood Inn and bad afternoon tea. The Intl is built after the old mission style too, around a pine, and is of an immense size, part of it was an old mission at one time, every room con, tains antique furniture and curios. The streets of Riverside are lined with pxims too, bot I prefar Our own maple h y as a shady tree. We left Riverside during the night and were in Pasadena in the morning, where we called up Mr. Theo Hall on the phone and found their store was just two blocks from the atatien. We called there for a fetor rnlnutee. They wished to be remembered. to their friends in the east. We then went for an auto drive to Mr. Cathbert'e orange farm,' here we helped ourselves to Grantee off the tree. I< might meat. Ion that the tree We picked oranges Re1more.
