It's in northern Arizona—and it took a million years to make. There's only one railroad entering this National Park. It's the Santa Fe—and its Pullmans take you direct to the South Rim the year round. Last year well over a half million people saw the spectacular grandeur of Grand Canyon, enjoyed rim drives and trail trips, and the traditional Fred Harvey hospitality at El Tovar Hotel and the Bright Angel Lodge. This month is a fine time to see the Canyon from the South Rim—the only part of Grand Canyon open the year round. W. E. FENNELL, Agent Santa Fe Station, Phone 3197 ANAHEIM, CALIF. IN THE DAYS OF LONG AGO By MRS. HENRY KUCHEL 75 Years Ago March 18, 1874 One of the most attractive features of our little town is the "Washington Market" located on Center street and belonging to B. Cohen. There is a degree of neatness about it which is not usually a characteristic of butcher shops. In connection with the meat department, Cohen keeps every variety of vegetables of the season, fruits of all kinds and in fact everything that a housekeeper requires for the providence of the tables. The want of these things has been heretofore a great inconvenience to families and we trust that Washington Market will be well patronized and liberally sustained by our housekeepers. On Wednesday afternoon last Orange Lodge of Odd Fellows, was duly organized and the following officers were installed by Deputy Grand Master H. Wartenberg assisted by M. L. Goodman, P.

What is believed to be one of the oldest (if not the oldest) parks in California is in full bloom at San Juan Capistrano. Located in the corner of the patio, no from the entrance to the orchid church of Fray Junipero Serra, the tree is said to have been planted by Dona Ysidora Picco de Soto, sister of Governor Pio de Dios, old residents say it was the site of the Governor who planted a tree and Father St. John O'Sullivan is inclined to take their wives for it. The planting date is definitely established, but it is least forty-one years old, and probably much older. The original tree was knocked down when wagon used in reconstruction was bumped into it, but the stump remained and a new tree has come up from it. Today in full bloom adds a delightful touch of fragrance to that section of the mission. The swimming pool in municipal park will be opened to public one week from Saturday.
