California is about the only place I know -of where one can get sunstroke in the day time ..and chilblains., the i same night . Zr::;'"'--rte. ;j ',V . I might mention that earth quakes are practically unknown, Nearly everyone claims it is Just Florida propaganda. Even the air out here is a little different much of It being "hot air." ; ' There is a delightful air of in formality in the way people dress (or shall we say "undress") for the street You can see anything and almost everything until one gets tired of lifting an eyebrow. Slacks with a tight-fitting southern ex posure are not uncommon, and there are some shorts that Couldn't be much shorter without being 1 necklace. , . ... v?" ' It's about 400 miles between the two famous rivals, San Francisco and Los Angles. Each of these two cities delights k trying to outtalk the other. They are connected by a scenic highway which is dotted with beautiful cities: Monterey, one of the first settlements in Califor nia,,' San Jose San Lull. Ablspo, Palo Alto, Santa Crux, Santa Bar bara and many others, all of them Interesting. , The miles of sandy beaches offer Ideal setting for the bathing cutles to pose on. , I can't send you a sample bathing beauty because they would never allow her to go through the mail uti censored. But I will steal a drop f their ocean to moisten the stamp with. I don't think they'll ever miss It :; ,; The mountains of the eastern border make a gorgeous back ground. Wish I could send you a r.ountain, or at least a small hill, tut the Chamber of Commerce f t 's them for advertising pur poses. Between the mountains and tlte sea are beautiful groves of f 't.

Or one' can have early ham and eggs in San Francisco and eat red-hot enchiladas la-Mexico that same When we think-of Hollywood we usually think of celebrities and glamour girls and boys, but they' are not running -around loose on the streets. Occasionally we da see a star in one of the great open front markets, but you have to look them over pretty carefully to even know them, because after their glamour is washed -off, and left behind at the studio, they look just ' like ordinary mortals, even as you and I. Frequently one can see a block of extras In cos tume and makeup ' jerched at a lunch counter. They can take the romance out of a hamburger In short order, even tho they are dressed as Milord and Milayd so-and-so. If one wants, to see movie stars one can be fairly certain of doing so at anyone of many popular night clubs. They usually drip furs and Jewelry and wear the latest In evening clothes. Of course at the races, a great pastime out here, one sees the last word in styles, y The studios are located all over town. In fact, several towns, and are particularly hard to get info. You really have to be a visiting potentate, G4Ian or burglar to even get by the front gate. '- , Catalina Island Which no doubt you've heard about Is interesting. It lies-Just off the coast about two hours' voyage by ' steamer. By plane you can get there so. fast your shadow doesn't catch up with wou until five minutes after land- ' I can't expect to cover all the points of Interest In one letter.'. . For Instance, there is the Holly wood Bowl, a natural outdoor thea tre, Olvera Street and Old Loa Angeles, Chinatown in Saa Fran cisco, Pasadena, so filled with rich people that one should have chron ic indigestion or two strokes of apoplexy to really call It home .- The Interesting old missions of San Fernando, Santa Barbara .V . the great naval base at. San Diego . . . the beautiful city of La Jolla .,'i Laguna Beach, with Its qual&t shops and artists' colony . , . Im perial Valley, the "market basket" of the United States i . Sail Joa quin Valley, with Its many oil wells and Interesting cities. One reason people live to such a ripe old age in California is that there Is so much to see they really can't spare the time to die.' ' ; And flowers simply grow every where.
