THE DOGE OF THE Ml VENICE Not Much Class to His Mode of Living and Dressing "Abbot Kinney, the creator of Southern California's Venice, has many millions but he lives in a rented house," writes Walter WoehlUe in. Western Personalities in Sunset, Magazine for December. "Though he built a railroad, he owns neither horse nor motor. Splendid raiment is not for him.

Always he drapes his lank form in a gray hand me down, topped by a comfortable old hat. Collars he usually shuns. He has a beard in which gray struggles with a reddish tint for mastery, and his blue gray eyes have a mocking, inscrutable look, the introspective sare of the man who knows the world, its ways and its sorrows, who has weighed and analyzed his own ideals and those of other men and still believes in them, perhaps by the strength of reason and intellect rather than With the hot emotion of youth. "When the future Doge first viewed the site of his princpality he saw a desolate stretch of salt marsh, separat ed from the ocean by equally desolute dunes of shifting sand. Abbot Kinney saw the desolation, but he also saw the frame of beauty around it.

He had a dream, a vision that haunted him since he had first beheld the spires and domes of the Venice that rises out of the Adriatic. Because of this dream he bought the waste marsh and sand. bought it for a song. Seven' years ago he proceeded to make his dream a reality. A fleet of dredgers tore through the salt marsh, chased out the anarrv ducks and created an interlacing system of canals, cement workers lined the sides of the canals and threw a Bcore of classic bridges across them.

Streets were laid out along the canals, trees, flowers, shrubs and vines planted, a connection with the ocean established, a wide lagoon dredged out. Within a year the marsh vanisneo: a city with waterways instead of highways took its place. It was to be the focal point of art. culture and Intellect in Southern California, the refuge of the high domed few, a Chautauqua in continuous session perpetually enlivened bv spiritual fireworks. Thus ran the dream of the Dodge.

But the ever growing masses of Southern California decreed otherwise. Though the dream cltv of the canals became a reality, its spiritual lire ana intellectual fireworks were at once over shadowed by the very material doings on the sand dunes along the beach. "Abbott Kinney dreamed of esthetic feasts, of learned lectures and classic symphonies for the favored few. But the masses wanted piers, peanuts and poocorn. waltz music and hair raising rides.

Since there Is mingled in the idealism of the Doge a very practical sense of hard headed acquisitiveness, he satisfied these demands. He built niersf breakwaters, bathhouses, hired Italian bands by the year, set off real instead of intellectual fireworks and, in seven years, created the largest and most varied place of outdoor amusement west of Chicago."

December a motor trip through the California redwoods. "Before the time of Christ the Druids worshiped the spirits in the trees and celebrated the festival of Yuletide, in which the tree had a prominent part. The first man that we know of in the countries of the North was the cave man. His cathedral was the forest, and its ceiling the blue sky, seemingly upheld by the fluted columns of redwood trees that raised their lofty trunks to the zenith. And in midwinter he looked forth from his rude door on trees lighted with the rays of the setting sun into more splendor than ever glittering tinsel or nickering candle can lend to the Christmas tree of our time.

"Among the relics of the cave man that have been found, in Europe are pieces of redwood trees. The only redwoods now growing on the face of the earth are in Califronia. They are the finest trees in the world. Geologies say thatCalifornia is a'geological island' and is of a formation that has ceased to exist in other portions of the world. Perhaps the cave man, if he existed in California, gazed forth on some of the same trees that we see to for we reckon the age of some of the giant redwoods of the Sierra Nevada as over 6,000 years.

"While the ruthless hand of' the lumberman has destroyed thousands of the redwoods of California, some of the finest trees are still standing in the forests of Humboldt county. They are on Bull creek, which empties into the south fork of the Eel onlv a few miles from Dyerville and are unquestionably the finest body of redwood trees standing in the world. This means the finest trees of any kind. They are of a uniform size of more than twenty feet through and stand as thick as though they had been planted in rows. The light of the sun rarely penetrates to the floor of the grove; so uioseiy togeiner ao tne mighty columns stand that their tops form canopy against the sky.

Here in the midst of the mighty forest one feels impressively the shortness of man's time on earth." is the near nature treatment for Consumption.
