Californian to Get Good Treatment Will Be Given Best at Washington During Inauguration Californians who attend the inauguration ceremonies of President-elect Herbert Hoover, and who make the trip to the national capitol aboard the "California Hover Inaugural Special," that is to be operated over the Union Pacific system, are assured of hotel accommodations upon arrival, o f tickets to the charity inaugural ball, and of reserved seats in the parade reviewing stand opposite the White House; Plans for all of these special attractions have been completed by the committee on arrangements headed by John R. Quinn chairman. The Southern California delegation to the inauguration will be headed by Colonel William Eric Fowler and other prominent members of the republican organization. Nearly a score of women prominent in social and political circles will be on board the special, which will also carry Miss Peggy Hamilton, Hollywood's famous stylist, who is the official hostess for the party. Accompanying Miss Hamilton will be several prominent members of the film colony, who have taken a deep interest in the fortunes of Mr. Hoover and who worked ardently for his election. Colonel Fowler was advised in dispatches from Washington that the inaugural parade, which is to be held on the afternoon of March 4, will be approximately four miles in length, will occupy about two hours in passing any given point, and will have some 20,000 participants. The seats in the reviewing stand which are being held for Californians who go on the special train are in the direct center of the stand which faces the White House. The charity ball is to be held on the evening of March 4. A number of other events which will be held in connection with the inauguration also will be available for the California party. The Union Pacific special train will leave Los Angeles at 5 p.m. on the evening. "There is a natural tendency on the part of the driver to quickly apply the brakes when a flat tire occurs, as he attempts to stop before the tire is ruined. Due to increased road traction sudden application not of the brakes apparently has the greatest effect on the wheel that carries the flat tire. Speedy application is especially dangerous when a front tire collapses, as the steering mechanism cannot hold the car from following the low wheel and an upset in the ditch often results. To reduce the danger from flat tires the Western Auto stores have been supplying automobile owners of the west with Polson super-inner tubes. These tubes eliminate flat tires to a marked degree by self-sealing ordinary punctures instantly and permanently. This is accomplished by a patented principle of highly compressed pure gum rubber on the inside of the tube which grips a puncturing object tightly and compresses back into place when the object is removed, with little or no loss of air. In addition to offering protection when traveling at a high rate of speed, the Polson equipment adds to the life of the tire by reducing air seepage to a minimum." Santa Fe Makes Reduction in Fares According to an announcement made by C. A. Walker, local agent, the Santa Fe will commencing March 3, place in effect heavy reductions in coach fares, and at the same time speed up passenger trains on its line between Los Angeles and San Diego. Special coach tickets will be on sale daily from Anaheim to San Diego at rate of $2.25, which is a considerable reduction under present fare of $3.60. Schedule of trains north and south-bound through Anaheim will be as follows: Northbound—Leave San Diego, 2:20 a.m., 9:30 a.m.; 2:40 p.m., 6:45 p.m. Arrive Anaheim 6:35 a.m., 11:59 a.m.; 5:01 p.m., 9:27 p.m. Arrive Los Angeles 7:30 a.m., 12:45 p.m., 5:40 p.m., 10:15 p.m. Southbound—Leave Los Angeles 1:00 Wonderful Of Electricity Imposing Spectacle Convention at L.A.

The Union Pacific special train will leave Los Angeles at 6 p.m. on the evening of February 27, and will reach Washington on the morning of March 3. Warning Against Sudden Stopping Brakes should never be suddenly applied if a flat tire occurs when traveling at a high rate of speed, advises V. F. Cruzen, local manager of the Western Auto Supply company. "High speed, balloon tires and four wheel brakes, combine to make flat tires extremely dangerous, as the sudden drop of a wheel from four to seven inches and the heavy road drag of a flat balloon tire sometimes throws the car completely off the road," says Mr. Cruzen. Hoover’s Head Is Full Size Larger Than Lincoln’s, Hat Chart Shows Abraham Lincoln Gen. U.S. Grant James A. Garfield Rutherford B. Hayes Chestert A. Arthur Grover Cleveland Benjamin Harrison Wm. M.Kinley Theodore Roosevelt Chart giving head shapes of 9 U.S. Presidents. A Study of the Head Sizes of Our Presidents Provides Interesting Information About Their Heads and Hats. A Study of the Head Sizes of Our Presidents Provides Interesting Information About Their Heads and Hats. CORRESPONDENTS who have spent much time in describing President elect Hoover's double breasted blue serge suit have overlooked, his friends say, the Californian's most obvious sartorial effect—his grey felt hat. Mr. Hoover has forsaken almost entirely the dark felt hat of other years—a style for which he showed partiality on most informal occasions. During the summer months, the President elect changes to a stiff American straw and, of course, on formal occasions wears his silk topper. It is no secret that the President elect does not take kindly to the high silk hat, just as he does not take kindly to anything stiff or normal in business relationships. Some early pictures show Herbert Hoover in a black derby. On rare occasions he has been seen in a neogah finish fur felt. Mr. Hoover has no bumps or protrusions on his head as has Al Smith. All it will be remembered, once told a municipal court judge that the reason he wore his hat on one side of his head was because it hurt to wear it absolutely horizontal. Mr. Hoover's head compares favorably as to size with the heads of former occupants of the White Mouse. Company of Philadelphia have assembled some interesting "head facts" about our former Presidents as well as about other notables of history. Measured in eighth's, Mr. Hoover's seven and a quarter is a size larger than Abraham Lincoln's, and a size smaller than Ulysses S. Grant's, according to Stetson officials. Of the eleven presidents about whom information has been secured, Rutherford B. Hayes takes first honors in small sizes with 7 1/16. James A. Carfield had the largest head and wore a 7% hat. William McKinley and Calvin Coolidge are credited with size 7%. Grover Cleveland and Benjamin Harrison each wore a size 7½ hat. Warren G. Harding's size was 7%, while Chester A. Arthur wore a 7½ hat. Johnson's Head Irregular Lincoln's head is described as small, well shaped and almost a perfect oval. The general character of the contour pointed to firmness, caution and the domestic virtues. President Johnson's head was larger and more irregular with a big bump of concentration. Grant's head was also large and wide across the front showing special genius for construction and generalship. That appearance of heads may be deceiving is seen from a comparison of the means of Cleveland's and Mckinley's with those of the oldidents. Cleveland's hat supposed to be very large reality it was not as large of Harrison's. McKinley seemed to have an a large skull, actually had one. It was, however, long and had a pronounce of cautiousness. "T. R."

Probably the late Roosevelt never heard of fieriety complex, yet phras insist that the formation head showed a tendency spondency. They also saw Teddy had a big conscience.

Plans for this gigantic spectacle were revealed by LeRoy M. Edwards, Potentate of Al Malalkah Shrine and director general of the convention, to be held on June 4-6. The towering bulk of the Los Angeles Coliseum will be turned into an extravaganza of light on the night of June 6, as a myriad of powerful beacons sweep the sky with beams of every hue while on the vast floor of the arena a parade, over two miles in length, of illuminated floats takes place. Each float will represent the most modern conception of illuminated decorations as conceived and executed in the studios of filmland. Every studio, star and producer in Hollywood will enter a float or appear in the pageant. Jack L. Warner is in charge of this event. Thirty-eight of the floats will require individual electric generators to furnish the current for their thousands of colored lights. The current for the entire display of artificial illumination will be furnished by the most imposing array of electric generators ever assembled. Valued in excess of $1,500,000, these powerful generators will afford lighting effects with a combined intensity of 12,000,000,000 beam candlepower. PENNSYLVANIA PICNIC All who ever lived in the Keystone State are invited to a great picnic all day Saturday, March 2nd, 1929, in Sycamore Grove Park, Los Angeles. Go early and spend the day with friends. There will be county registers and head quarters so all can find the old neighbors, even with thousands present. There will be a brief program, but the main purpose will be to have a good Nine Club Leaders Attend Convention Nearly 150 leaders of agricultural clubs organized under the direction of the University of California Agricultural Extension Service, registered at the University Farm, Davis, for the second Club Leaders' Short Course at the branch o fthe College of Agriculture. Last winter approximately fifty leaders were enrolled. Dr. W. L. Howard, director of the branch of the College of Agriculture, extended the welcome to the club leaders, after which Prof. B. H. Crocheron, director of agricultural extension, gave an outline of the program and told of its purposes. The Animal Husbandry Division presented the livestock owned by the University, showing the different breeds of hogs, horses, sheep, dairy and beef cattle. This review was held in the livestock judging pavilion. Four courses are offered. These courses are in poultry, dairying and swine, field crops and vegetables, and clothing and home furnishing. A general session on good growth and development is also given, followed by the daily recreation program in charge of John Bradford, New York City, of the Playground and Recreation Association of America. The students of the Branch of the College of Agriculture will give a program of general entertainment in the class room building evenings. The course will end at non Saturday. Those attending from Orange county are Wilson Harwood and Earl Eude of Yorba Linda, Harold Case of San Juan Capistrano, Ira Hartshorn of Costa Mesa, H. J. Hinrichs of West Orange, Miss Ellen M. Dodson, Donald Schurr and Donald Schurr of Garden Grove and Eric E. Eastman, assistant farm advisor. TOURISTS IN HORDES Tourists are coming to Southern California in large numbers. They will continue to come, say prominent railroa dofficals now in this section. It promises to be a record spring for California is confirmed by Robert Creelman, passenger traffic manager of the Canadian National Railways, who also is visiting in Los Angeles. He says that in Canada interest in Southern California increases, year after year. Many Canadians are coming down here this spring, he says. These assurances are quite welcome to the Southland. This section is accustomed to hearing itself praised. But it does not take praise indifferently. It always is appreciative of the compliments that are given it by delighted tourists. Iodine Prevents Big Neck In some sections o fthe country dairy cows are affected by a lack of iodine in the feed. This results in goitre or big neck in calves, usually at birth. If this trouble is experienced in a herd, iodine should be fed.

Go early and spend the day with friends. There will be county registers and head quarters so all can find the old neighbors, even with thousands present.

They will continue to come, say prominent railroa dofficals now in this section. It promises to be a record spring for tourist visitors. Leon M. Allen, vice-president passenger traffic manager of the Rock Island railroad says that the records of his road for the last few weeks show a large increase in travel to Southern California. The tourist stream was interrupted for a time by the influenza epidemic which swept over the country. But Mr. Allen, who is on a visit to Los Angeles, says that advance bookings and other indications point to the heaviest west-bound travel in the history of the Rock Island road. He added: "The entire country is prosperous and prosperity always is reflected by heavy travel; I for one am glad to come here again; California sunshine is more than appreciated after a few weeks of the wintry weather in the mid-West and East." The promising outlook for heavy spring tourist travel into Southern Cali- JPRINT Herbert Hoover has discarded his dark felt hat for a grey fedora. comparison of the measurements of Cleveland's and McKinley's skulls with those of the other Presidents. Cleveland's hat size was supposed to be very large, but in reality it was not as large as that of Harrison's. McKinley, who seemed to have an abnormally large skull, actually had a small one. It was, however, extremely long and had a pronounced bump of cautiousness. "T. R." Had Conscience Bump Some of the statistics the Stetson Company has compiled run true to popular conception, while others are at variance with what the layman is prone to believe. For instance, Joseph Hume, the philosopher, required an 8½ hat, while the size of the head of the former German Emperor is listed as 6⅓. Probably the late Theodore Roosevelt never heard of an inferiority complex, yet phrenologists insist that the formation of his head showed a tendency to despondency. They also state that Teddy had a big conscience bump. Mr. Hoover's frontal development is pronounced. It conforms with the orthodox theories of phrenology as to the proper shape of a highly trained executive's cranium.
