Nor must we forget Ontario, in the county of San Barnardino. This thriv- ing Colony is now twenty years old, and was founded by Chailey Bros. of Canada, It is known as the Model Colony. Its double -drive avenue, sev- en mites long, Iined with peppers, palins and eucalyptus trees, four rows. the entire length (7 miles) with an electric railway in the centre, is indeed a rare driveway. The irrigation sys- tem of Ontario is said to be the best in the world, and 'a model of it is on ex- hibition at the World's Fair in St. Louis. Redlands is said by many travellers to be one of the prettiest places visited in years of travel. It lies in the foot- hills, encircled by snow-capped moun- tains ; a'city of beautiful homes, sur- rounded by acres of perennially -green orchards, where grow the famous Red- lands navel oranges. Smiley Heights, with its 2011 acres of tropical trees and flowers, and the Smiley Public Library of 8000 volumes are two of its attrac- tions. Another beautiful place is Riverside, the oldest and most famous orange district-- the original home of the Washington navel orange. This va- riety is seedless and must be propagat- ed by budding. Five thousand car- loads of the luscious frnits are shipped every year from 20,000 acres of ever- green orange groves, and bring to the growers more than two million dollars. San Gabriel Mission, 9 miles distant from Los Angeles is an historical land- mark. It was founded in 1771 by the Franciscan Fathers for the conversion of the Indians, and at one time there were 1700 Indians under their super- vision, The old Mission was of brick covered with adobe soil. It still stands as a monument teethe men who braved death to bring religion to, a heathen people in the years long ago, Four of the old bells still chime forth the "An- gelus" and peal out the summons to mass. This is the best -preserved of the old Missions, and contains many hand -carved images, and oil paintings brought here years ago. The bells were traded for when the Mission was built, and received in exchange for hides, tallow and beeswax. Remind- ers of days long past, are these Mission premises.

The zig-zag run and the haste the bird makes to hide among its companions are amus- ing, and the boy rider is often eom- pelted to dismount and quickly end his comical- ride, The nests are made in the open ground. A visit to the Os- trich farm is indeed interesting. Should the visitor receive a kick from one of these birds, he will remember his visit to their Pasadena home, Just to the north of Pasadena lie the Sierra Madre mountains. They look as though they were only a gun -shot distant, but it is five miles to the foot- hills. By electric car line through the pretty suburb of Altadena, Mt. Lowe is reached. Here an incline railway has been built, that is considered one of the triumphs of engineering skill. The grades of the incline are 60, 62, 58 and 48 feet. It is said to be the most wonderful electric railway in the world. In 3000 feet, we ascend 1,800 feet, and cross a bridge, the steepest ever built; the length of this bridge is 200 feet, and yet the upper end is 120 feet higher than the lower end. When you reach Echo peek, you step out of the car 3500 feet above the sea. Here is the Observatory, containing one of the largest telescopes in the world, be- ing twenty-two feet in length, sixteen inches in diameter and weighing twenty-two tons. Here also is placed the World's Fair great search -light, which may at night be seen at a dis- tance of fifty miles. The range of vision from Echo mountain is wonder- ful.
