One [really h s to see this wondertul exâ€" \hibit in every department of this !gmt Canadian building to ftully Probably the chief attraction there is the Canadian Building with its exhibits which was a part of the exâ€" Ipo.i ior recently closed, but this buailding is swill open tor the togrists. )aud we, as Canadians, were very proad indeed, and much interested in the splendid exhibits ot our &ro- dacts and natural resources of Canâ€" At San Diegothe ciimate is warmer than bere, and they tell us there is very little change in the temperature both winter and sammer. We bhave climved many of these mountains in different parts. Oe of them is wastwelve miles from where we started to climb until we reached the summit, and it is wondertal how many motor cars are seen always on these trips. We have estimated that we bave met as many as five thousand in driving twenty miles. \ The roads are wonderfual. Thousâ€" ands of miles of cement pavement has been made in every direction making the coun‘ry ideal for motoring. We can start out in an afternoon and make a trip ot one bundred miles and be back for supper without being ’ tired owing to the smocthness of the roads, and then there are so many varieties of seenery. To San Diego we took the coast routs, and for miles and miles our road ran along with the ocean one side and mountains on the other, Sometimes we would wind back and t rth up a mounsain and at first antil one became ased to it many thrills w:reexperienced on the sharp curves around cliffs when a few feet would take us down an embankment hundreds of teet below to some rocky gorge ton steep for man to climb. California is a wonderfal place tor sightseeing. So many visitors come bere from all parts ot the S:ates and Canada and great cfforts have been medsto attract them as it appsars mach of the gronperity cf this counâ€" try is gained by the money spent here (Miss Belie Hay. granddaughter of M: aod Mrs Râ€"bt Hay, Dorn ch, bas had the privilege lately df t uring Calitirnia.

Heaps of love to you both. Sincerelr, Belle Hay. This country is so different from the prairie coun‘ry of my home in Canvada. Here mountains are runâ€" uing through every part of the state and cultivated parts are in the valleys and after being used to the broad stretches of cu‘tivated land in our own country this resembles ‘more of an orebard or flower garden. Very few fields ot grain are to be seen through the parts that we haye been in and yviewing it from the top of some of the mountains we bave climbed the valleys bave the appearance of the saburbs ot some cirty the houses are so close together. ‘Their farms or holdings here c nsisting of only a fow acres of land often not more than five and we are told that it costs from one hundred to two bundred and filty doliars an acre e ch yearfor the care of an orabge orchard. At Redlands the place of chief inâ€" terest is Smiley Heights. â€" Here milâ€" lions have been spent on a mountain to bring to perfec ion men‘s claverest ideas in the arrangement and cultiâ€" vation of shrubbery and flowers. Altho‘ up to this time we had passed through many beautiful avenues of trees and flowers this surpassed, and we could cot help bat think how wonderfal it was. _ Herealsoat Riverside is the Miss‘on Ino noted for i s wonderful coliection which is claimed to be the finest in existen e ofthe rclies of the early days. This consists of ancvique farniâ€" ture, paintings, tapestry, masical inâ€" struments, Cathedral and Mission bells old china and many othar relics <f the past tor generations back. The Ion is laid out and farnished wich the idea ot giving comfort to its guests. Fireplaces cosy nooks, big easy chairs, birds singing, and flower bowers, old water wheels running aod quaint ideas in eyery curner, and still a magnificence about which attracts the most wealthy tourists so that it is otten difficalt to secure acâ€" commodation there. _ Possibly one of the most interesting trips for the tourist is in the interior such as Riverside, and Redlands which are the orange centres of Cali fornia. I will never forget the wonâ€" ders of these two places. At Riverâ€" side we climbed Mt Ruabidoux where the auto road winds reaod aod round the mountain ustil it reaches the summit where is placed a great cross and one of the old Mission bells in commemoration and as a monument to the days of the Missions that is so closelv enterwoven with the early Aistory of California. Our v‘sit to old Mexico eighteen miles south ot San Diego was more for the purpcse of crossing th border than for sight seeiog. Greatnumbers otf people seem to have the same idea and crowds were there with little of interest to s>e outside of the Mexicans and a great race course where horseâ€" racing is carried extensively and Tia Judna is the Monte C :rlo of America, appreciate it, and to rstand why we have heard »nwl.b-" Â¥isitors wha have been there in appreciation ot it‘s magnificanee.
