lllll lSTllATl0 THE TOURISTS' GOAL . CALIFORNIA By MILTON FRANKENSTETN Hollywood and its movie stars, San Francisco and its Golden Gate Bridge, San Pedro and its harbor, Los Angeles and its historic landmarks, are offered as magnetic powers to draw thou- sands of tourists westward bound each year. The tourists of the world are amazed by the scenic beauties California has to offer. To men- tion a few, we might begin with the Yosemite waterfall which is situated in the beautiful Sierra Nevada mountains. lt is the highest waterfall existing in the world. Then there are the pic- turesque forests of California, which cover an area almost as great as the state of Pennsylvania. In the -vicinity of Los Angeles the tourist may bathe in the Warm Pacific in mid-winter and an hour or so later enjoy a toboggan slide down the snowy slopes of the mountains comparatively 'few miles away. , Especially for the tourists' benefit California offers remarkable roads, which are amongthe finest in the United States. 2 - - ff sa. f . .... . . . 4 ,3 gy figs,-,Y wi ,-. s- -s ,, . ., , , ,. .:.W. -1 .

No topic could really be more fitting, for each year the beautiful land of California is visited by thou- sands upon thousands of tourists who are lured here by its intriguing scenic beauty, mild, warm climate, and 'fine winter resorts. Every year the number of tourists visiting California is being increased and each year more money is being spent by the tourist right here in our own city whose prolit is being reaped by the California business man. This is fast going to make California one of the richest and most ideal spots in the country. Really a tourists' haven, for California is practically a world in itself. It has the picturesque resort of Palm Springs with its beautiful desert land which is equal to the Sahara Desert 3 while the deep blue of the Pacific seems to bring Venice and the Mediterranefri right to our door with the Sierra Nevadas add- ing a touch of the mighty Alps of Switzerland to complete the picture. , So. you see, California is a tourist's playground.
