What will be the effect of the boom? We need not regret the loss of the most of those that have . gone back. Their influen¢e which will check the wide’ of desirable. immigration will hurt us more. But the most useful of the comers have anichored in California. Their wealth and influence.and ‘hopes are here. They knew what they were doing when they came, and they will not be disappointed. The influence of one of ‘these will do more than half a dozen of those that returned, “Some of.those that went back should not have gone. Those that had something to start wiih, but were not able to establish themselves in the southern part of the state, should have come to ithe northern foothills. “Many such people are now finding homes in the northern part of the state, and although we have no boom, it fis plain that a season of prosperity is approaching. ° “Although the foothill region has some valuable advanitages over other parts of the state, itcan not be hop‘ed that it will et growth as the south has had. In spme places around Los Angeles within two years the population has more than doubled, while property value has correspondingly advanced. It is said that the assessment roll of the city and county of Los Angeles alone reaches the enormous amount of $93,000,000. Nine new banks have opened for business within the past twelve months in the counties of Los Angeles, San Diego and San Bernardino. “Before the tide of prosperity recedes it promises to reach all parts of the state. Sooner or later it will «come here. People may convince themselves that this cannot be, but fit will be.’’ Mr. and Mrs. Will S.

The care with which the Committee has builded this old time dance hall and cafe is the wonder of all. A replica of an old time hall and bar of the Roarin’ Forties is successfully reproduced the spirit and romance of the days when California was young. Old table cloths cover the tables whith ine the sides of Helldorado. Old lighting fixtures designed especially for the room shed a gentle glow of warmth and add to the ijlJusion of antiquity. The 80 foot bar with its bar room pictures paiinted especially for the room with their mirrors which were so much in vogue in the days lend a decoration to room which will be long remembered The stage wit s old advertising curtain which insisted_in going up in the old way, one side at ati and then descending with a bump gave just the right bit of humor to the show. And that show, what a lot of memories it brought up of those days when we used to go to the variety show, sit close and stare up in wonderment at the jacts while our minds wondered in awe at the gyrations of the actors. Well it was all there, from the Floradora Sextet and Can Can to ithe Cake Walk and the songs in which the audience joined. The old songs, Baggage Coach Ahead and all the rest. Red shirted and bearded miners, for the whole town has beards on the men and old costumes, rubbed elbows with the ladies in the fairylike ruffles and poke bonnets of a day when California was a fledgling state. , A service bar and kitchen gave the best to the tables and the dance floor is crowded with the dancers. We went home when the stars were just beginning to fade and in our hearts was the remembrance of one of the great evenings of our life.

The care with which the Committee has builded this old time dance hall and cafe is the wonder of all. A replica of an old time hall and bar of the Roarin’ Forties is successfully reproduced the spirit and romance of the days when California was young. Old table cloths cover the tables whith ine the sides of Helldorado. Old lighting fixtures designed especially for the room shed a gentle glow of warmth and add to the ijlJusion of antiquity. The 80 foot bar with its bar room pictures paiinted especially for the room with their mirrors which were so much in vogue in the days lend a decoration to room which will be long remembered The stage wit s old advertising curtain which insisted_in going up in the old way, one side at ati and then descending with a bump gave just the right bit of humor to the show. And that show, what a lot of memories it brought up of those days when we used to go to the variety show, sit close and stare up in wonderment at the jacts while our minds wondered in awe at the gyrations of the actors. Well it was all there, from the Floradora Sextet and Can Can to ithe Cake Walk and the songs in which the audience joined. The old songs, Baggage Coach Ahead and all the rest. Red shirted and bearded miners, for the whole town has beards on the men and old costumes, rubbed elbows with the ladies in the fairylike ruffles and poke bonnets of a day when California was a fledgling state. , A service bar and kitchen gave the best to the tables and the dance floor is crowded with the dancers. We went home when the stars were just beginning to fade and in our hearts was the remembrance of one of the great evenings of our life.
