terday the ceremonies of laying the
cornerstone and Rising the Califor-
nla Bear Flap at the new home of
The Los Angeles Examiner, now in

These ceremonies were preceded by
a great parade throughout the down
town streets, which acted as the es
cort of William Randolph Hearst and
Mayor H. H. Rose to the new build
ing site.
In the speakers’ stand were leaders
of the civic and religious life in Los
Angeles, while In the grandstand was
a brilliant assemblage.
The ceremonies were heid under the
auspices of the Los Angeles Adver
tising Flub, and Ernest Ingold, presi

geles Realty Board, as master of cer

representing the Right Rev Thomas
J. Conary, Bishop of the Catholic Dio

Silver Trowel Given Mr. Hearst.
Dougins White, of the Advertising
Club, presented a silver trowel to
Mayor Rose, who officially laid the
cornerstone and then presented the
trowel to Mr. Hearst. Dr. Sigmund
Hechtal, rabbi of the B'Nai Brith
Congregation, made the closing re
marks
It was in acknowledging the gift of
the trowel from Mayor Rose that Mr.
Hearst delivered his address, in which
he voiced his confidence In the great
future of Los Angeles and Southern
California. The various speakers
paid tribute to Mr. Hearst and to
The Examiner’s influence in the ex
pandlng progress and prosperity of
Southern California.
A chorus of several hundred voices
rendered patriotic music.
Mr. Hearst said In his address:
I thank you most heartily on
behalf of the members of the Los
Angeles Examiner staff and on my
own behalf for this beautiful me
mento and for the generous senti
ments which have accompanied It.
U Is a pleasant thing for us to
to feel that we are here among so
many friends, and it la also a
pleasant thing for us to feel, as
we all do feel, a sincere reciprocal
friendship for the citizens of Log
Angeles and a deep devotion to the
best interests of this great city.
Notable Occasion for Paper.
This Is a notable occasion for us
of The Examiner. It marks a
milestone In th<* progress of the
paper. It is made doubly mem
orable by the participation of our
Mayor, and by the attendance of
so many distinguished citizens.
Yet with all its importance and
significance it is only one of the
many occasions which we grate
fully remember where you have
kindly encouraged our efforts and
stimulated us to further endeavor.
Under such encouragement and
stimulus The Examiner has
grown until it Is one of the big-
gest and best of all my publica
tions. Certainly there is no pub
lication of mine from Los Angeles
to London In the success of which
I take a greater pride and pleas
ure.
I take pleasure In the success of
The Examiner first because I am
a Californian and take pleasure
in the success of everything Cal
ifornian. (Applause.)
I was not horn in Log Angeles,
but I was born in California.
A man is a Log Angelan, no
matter on what street of Los An
geles he Is born or lives, and a
man is a Californian no matter in
what part of California he is born
or lives.
Bound Together Closely.
We Californians are learning
more and more that we are all
bound together by the firm bonds
of fraternity and that the com
bined success of all as Individuals
make the complete success of all
ns a community. We are learn
ing that a friendly rivalry does
not mean a foolish jealousy; that
the fullest achievement is through
co-operation, and that whatever
operates for the benefit of Califor
nia operates for the benefit of all
of us as Californians.
I take pleasure in the success of
The Examiner, too, because I re
alize that Los Angeles Is destined
to become, and Is fast becoming,
one of the greatest cities in the
world. (Applause.)
1 want my system of publica
tions to be essentially a national
institution, and to be national It
must have representation in Los
Angeles as adequate as in any of
the greatest cities of the nation.
Finally, I take pleasure and
pride in the success of The Exam
iner because Los Angeles Is not
only a leader In material develop
ment. but a leader In ethical and
intellectual development—a pi
oneer in political progress.

Place a level teaspoonful of Instant Postum in an or

This makes Instant Postum right for most people.
Some like it stronger and use a heaping teaspoonful and
plenty of cream. Experiment until you get it right for
your taste and hqve it always made that way.

‘ ‘ There’s a Reason
n IB HOT
vanced localities of the world are
actualities in Los Angeles.
What are dreaded as threatening
theories in conservative centers
are established as practical and
beneficial facts in this progres
sive community.
Conservatism a Failing.
The older sections of this coun
try and of every country are
hampered and I andlcapped in
their development by also-called
conservatism which is too often
nothing more than sheer selfish
ness or inertness.
The phrase “conservatism’’ is
made to cover a multitude of fail
ings.
The lack of Imagination to
foresee, the lack of energy to at
tempt, the lack of courage to act,
the .nek of abilitv to achieve are
all cloaked under that convenient
word “conservatism.”
Conservatism is the attribute of
age. Energy, enthusiasm, cour
age, confident e and conviction are
the characteristics of youth and
strength. It is these that have
wrought the miracle of Los Ange
les.
In New York the citizens are
still struggling vainly for that
first essential of electoral reform
—the direct nomination.
In Los Angeles you have pos
sessed this power long and em
ployed It well. In the East in
trenched privilege still is declar
ing against the awful possibili
ties of the recall. For years you
have exercised that function of
popular government justly and
Judiciously.
In many localities the citizens
are timidly hesitating to adopt
woman suffrage. You have not
only proved the feasibility of their
right, but have demonstrated the
definite benefit of it.
Noted Political Achievements.
You have made universal suf
frage a fact and nopulnr govern
ment a reality. You have exer
cised the initiative and referen
dum wisely and temperately.
You have divorced your local
city government from national
politics and have made it what
It should be—a business institu
tion conducted for the business
benefit of the stockholders, the
citizens.
You have brought water from
the cool, clear streams of the dis
tant mountains, undeflled. instead
of collecting it from the poisoned
and polluted puddles of the popu
lated districts.
You have put your public money
honestly and Intelligently Into
great public works instead of In
to the pockets of greedy promot
ers and corrupt politicians. You
are invading confidently and com
pletely the field of public owner
ship in spite of the forebodings
and forbidding* of Interested pub
lic service corporations
You have disproved all the ar
guments of retained corporation
attorneys and dissipated all the
opposition of paid corporation
politicians.
And behold!
Strides Bring Prosperity.
You have prospered Incompar
ably In spite of your hold ad
vances and striking innovations;
nay more my friends, you have
prospered because of them.
In the favoring physical atmos
phere of this country, trees and
fruits grow big and in the favor
ing moral and spiritual atmos
phere of this community human
Institutions grow to greatness
I am truly proud and pleased to
have a newspaper hero to do its
share in the development of this
Great city, to play its part in the
progress of this groat State. I
am happy, too. to have a news
paper system to sow the seeds of
progress in other parts of the
nation and to cultivate it there
so that it may take root and
fiourish and blossom and bear
fruit.
My devout wish is that Los An
gelos may ever continue to be a
leader in the moral and material
development of the country; In
the economic and political prog
ress of the nation and that The
Examiner may be a potent fac
tor in this development, an ef
fective force In this progress—a
cornerstone in the splendid struc
ture of Californian achievement.
Tribute Paid to Examiner.
Excerpts from the speeches of
prominent Los Angela ns follow:
MAYOR H. H. ROSE—The con
struction of the wonderful building
is one of the greatest things that
was ever done for a city the size
of Los Angeles. A building over 300
feet long and large In proportion,
devoted to the uses of one news
paper, in the city of Los Angeles is
indeed a magnificent enterprise.
While this is the first time I have
had occasion to lay the cornerstone j
of a I'uiiding, except* maybe* a j
rough log hut or a stone hut in
the mountains, I hope I may have
occasion to use these trowels for
purposes like this many, many
time* during my administration.
DOUGLAS WHITE, representing the
Advertising Club of Los Angeles—
The advertising clubs of the Pa
cific Coast have been extremely
successful in their work up to this
time. Every movement needs a
leader, and so has the movement
for truth in advertising on th© Pa
cific Coast. However, when we en
tered on this movement it already
possessed a leader, for 25 years ago,
or about that time, in the city of
San Francisco, a publisher arose
who made the plain statement that
no matter what th© circulation of
his paper might be, that circulation
would be given truthfully and hon-
estly to the people who bought
space. That publisher was William
Randolph Hearst. From that time
up to the present, in all the papers
which he has owned and published,
he has carried out that same idea
of honesty and truth in his adver
tising, because In the circulation
depends the sale of advertising.
THE REV. GEORGE DONAHOE
representing the Rt. Rev. Thomas
J. Conaty, of the Diocese of Mon
terey and Los Angeles—What at
taches importance to this occasion
and to the building that is now
laboriously rising here is the fact
that this building is destined to be
come a great center of newspaper
activity in our gloriously growing
city. As the mission of The Ex
aminer goes forward the power of
The Examiner grows stronger. So
briefly, then, this is my good wish,
first in behalf of us all, newspaper
readers of Southern California, that
this building which we to-day with
ceremony officially begin, may al
ways be to us a source of informa
tion. and for the great newspaper
genius who honors this occasion
with his presence our one hope
and good wish and prayer is that
the influence, the great Influence
that he so surely holds—that It may
ever he devoted to works of fighting
evil in high places, defending the
weak and forwarding sound moral
ity the world over.
DR. SIGMUND HECHT, rabbi of the
B’n&i Brith congregation—In my
own and in the name of those whom
1 have the honor to represent I
bring my meed of congratulations
and encouragement and cheer, first
of all to those who are primarily
affected by this event, to that hon
ored head of this gigantic enter
prise. to that man nationally hon
ored for the purity of his character,
for the sincerity of his purposes,
for the directness of his inteniions.
for his ability and for the policy
with w hich he inspired The Los An
geles Examiner to favor none and
he fair t«* all—William Randolph
Hearst. The Los Angeles Examiner
—under God may it grow and pros
per and be a power in the develop
ment and in the uplift of our glo
rious country.
ARTHUR W. KINNEY, president of
The Los Angeles Chamber of Com
merce—The people of Southern Cal
ifornia offer The Examiner their
sincere congratulations upon this
memorable occasion which markd
an epoch in its w’onderful career in
our great city. It has always held
an unbounded faith in the mar
velous destiny of our Southwestern
metropolis and it has ever backed
up this faith by striving for every
thing that might contribute to the
prosperity of our people. It has,
indeed, been one of the sturdy sen
tinels at this far Western outpost
of American idealism. Long ago it
enunciated a policy of civic and in
dustrial progress that must appeal
to every person who has the wel
fare of our city at heart—a policy
which, if pursued, must hasten to
the unfolding of the great move
ment* that is destined *o make our
South widest empire world famed.
Ml HILL
Charges Speaker Burwell With
Breaking Promise to Bring
His Measures to Vote.
A tilt In which Representative Mc-
Crory, of Schley County, charged
Speaker Burwell with having failed
to keep his promise in regard to
placing the McCrory Fchoolbook bill
on the calendar, followed by another
in which McCrory shook a menacing
finger at Representative Holtzclaw
and warned him to “look out,” en
livened the, proceedings of the House
Monday afternoon
Mr. McCrory arose to a question of
personal privilege shortly after the
disposition of the “calf bill.”
“I was promised by the Speaker of
t hi si House,” he declared, “that he
would place my schoolbook bill on
the calendar for consideration to
day. -He has not done it. I’ve hear:!
enough about calves this afternoon to
stock a book, and it seems to me that
the members of the House consider
calves more important than the 500,-
000 school children of Georgia.
Studied Opposition Charged.
“If any man loves a child better
than he does a calf, let him help me
get this schoolbook bill up for con
sideration. It looks to me like there
is a studied effort to suppress my
bill.”
Speaker Burwell denied that he had
promised Mr. McCrory to place his
bill on the calendar.
“I did not state that I would have
the bill placed at the head of the or
der for the day,” replied the Speaker.
“I told Mr. McCrory that I would re
quest the Rules Committee to place
his bill on the calendar, but not being
the entire committee, I had no power
to so place it. The bill was placed
on the calendar for consideration to
day. but no one could foresee that
the time of the House would be taken
up by little things.”
Shakes Finger at Holtzclaw.
The clash between McCrory and
Holtzclaw came during the consider
ation of the Western and Atlantic
Commission bill. Mr. Holtzclaw ob
jected to a motion to dispense with
the reading of the bill when the Hou§e
went into committee of the whole, and
Mr. Crory, who was standing near
shook a menacing finger at the Hous
ton County Representative and said:
“Holtzclaw, you are trying to kill
time to prevent my bill coming to a
vote. You had better look out!”
Mr. Holtzclaw was in conversation
with a member at the time. He
glanced at Mr. McCrory, but made
no reply.
The failure of the House to take
action on the McCrory bill Monday
kills the measure for the rest of the
session, inasmuch as the Senate has
served notice that it will not consider
any House bill passed after Monday.

THIN FOR YEARS-=“GAINS 22
POUNDS IN 23 DAYS”
Remarkable Experience of F. Gagnon.
Builds Up Weight Wonderfully.
“I was all run down to the very
bottom,” writes F. Gagnon. “I had
to quit work. I was so weak. Now,
thanks to Sargol, I look like a new
man. I gained 22 pounds In 23 days.”
“Sargol has put 10 pounds on me
in 14 days,” states W. D. Roberts. “It
has made me sleep well, enjoy what I
ate and enabled me to work with In
terest and pleasure.”
“I weighed 132 pounds when I com
menced taking Sargol. After taking
20 days I weighed 144 pounds. Sargol
is the most wonderful preparation for
flesh building I have ever seen,” de
clares D. Martin, and J. Meier adds:
"For the past twenty years I have
taken medicine every day for indi
gestion and got thinner every year. T
took Sargol for forty days and feel
better than I have felt In twenty
years. My weight has increased from
150 to 170 pounds.”
When hundreds of men and women
—and there are hundreds, with more
coming every day—living in every
nook and corner of this broad land,
voluntarily testify to weight increases
ranging all the way from 10 to 35
pounds, given them by Sargol, you
must admit. Mr. and Mrs. and Mtws
Thin Reader, that there must be
something in this Sargol method of
flesh-building after all.
Hadn’t you better look Into It, Just
as thousands of others have done?
Many thin folks say: "I’d given most
anything to put on a little extra
weight,” but when someone suggests
a way they exclaim. “Not a chance.
Nothing will make me plump. I’m
built to stay thin.” Until you have
tried Sargol. you do not and can not
know that this Is true.
Sargol has put pounds of healthy
“stay there” flesh on hundreds who
doubted and in spite of their doubts.
You don’t have to believe in Sargol
to grow* plump from its use. You
just take it and watch weight pile up.
hollows vanish and your figure round
out to pleasing and normal proportions.
You weigh yourself when you begin
and again when you finish and you let
the scales tell the story.
Sargol is absolutely harmless. It is
a tiny concentrated tablet. You take
one with every meal. It mixes with
the food you eat for the purpose of
separating all of its flesh-producing
ingredients. It prepares these fat
making elements In an easily assimi
lated form, which the blood can read
ily absorb and carry all over your
body. Plump, well-developed Dersons
don’t need Sargol to produce this re
sult. Their assimilative machinery
performs its functions without aid.
But thin folks’ assimilative organs do
not. This fatty portion of their food
now goes to waste through their bod
ies like unburned cnkl through an open
grate. A few days’ test of Sargol in
your case will surely prove whether
or not this is true of you. Isn’t it
worth trying?
50c BOX FREE
To enable any thin reader, ten pounds or
more under weight, to tsaaily make this t«at we
will give a 50c box of Sargol absolutely free.
