Many Hoo-Hoo Delegates Will Come to Convention Early

and Stay Late

According to report hundreds of lumbermen and ladies from all parts of the country who are heading for Los Angeles to attend the annual Hoo-Hoo Convention September 6 to 9, are going to make the trip their summer vacations, coming early and staying late. This will give them the opportunity of not only attending the greatest HooHoo conclave in all the history of that historic order, but will also allow them to enjoy the wonderful vacation facilities afforded by the coast of Southern California.

The scenic drives from Los Angeles up and down the Coast both North and South, offer some of the loveliest summer scenery or, the entire continent. Visitors can drive into the mountains and throw snowballs. They can watch the Pacific waves splash the shores in a hundred different shades and colors. They can visit the far-famed movie studios, and all the rest of the movie-land called Hollywood. There are more interesting things to do, hear, eat, and drink in this territory in the summer than anywhere else on earth. The boating and swimming is wonderful. Days can be happily spent driving among the tens of thousands of magnificent and varied homes that cover the hills from Hollywood to the sea. World travelers proclaim the fact that the homes of this area put to shame in number and magnificence the homes of any other part of the whole world. Visiting lumbermen can learn much about home architecture. There are magnificent golf courses everywhere, offering the visitors a wealth of sport. The days will be warm, the nights will be cool, and there will be grand vacation opportunities for all the visitors. And Del Mar, one hundred miles south, offers magnificent horse racing6daysaweek.

There will be an equal division of business and pleasure during the days of the convention itself. The Los Angeles committees are all ready to welcome a great host of visitors. D. C. Essley, 9A9 South Atlantic Boulevard, Los Angeles 22, is the man who heads all the arrangements. A great time is coming.
