PARK AND CEMETERY. 
money in easing the gradients and other- 
wise improving the mountainous portions 
of the park. There is a car line running 
to within 100 yards of one of the entrances, 
and a proposal has been made to build 
another into the park, and it costs only 
5 cents to get ther from the center of 
the city. Incidentally it may be mentioned 
that Mt. Hollywood is the highest point of 
land in Los Angeles, and even with the eye 
unassisted magnificent views of the ocean, 
the beautiful San Fernando Valley, Pasa- 
dena and the famous Mt. Lome and Mt. 
Wilson can be had. 
Much dissatisfaction has been caused by 
the cutting down of fine old palms in 
Eastlake Park in the course of the trans- 
formation now going on there. Many of 
the local nurserymen think that because 
the work has been ordered by an Eastern 
authority, that therefore it is all wrong, 
and do not hesitate to say what they think. 
With regard to the new conservatory, I 
have not yet had an opportunity of seeing 
it, but if the structure looks anything like 
the pictures that have appeared in the local 
papers, a mausoleum would seem to be sug- 
gested rather than a house for growing 
plants in. The commissioners are quoted 
as saying that a Michigan professor says 
there is ample glass area in comparison 
with the other building material for Cali- 
fornia conditions. H. R. Richards.
