These include characteristic costumes, utensils and personal ornaments..

11:2-4. Frank Drugan tells why man has signaled his progress by holding huge expositions.

A rare example of the decorator�s art is exemplified in the House of Hospitality which opened its doors on the opening day of the Exposition, February 12. This house, which does not belie its gracious name, again is the center of society gaiety under the direction of the Women�s Executive Committee. Those who were received there last year find new arrangements of furniture and color harmonies to admire and truly a treat is in store for those who visit this ideal setting for semi-tropical entertaining for the first time.

Alice Klauber, art patron and artist in her own right, has designed the most striking of the new rooms, the Flamingo, a tete-a-tete lounge for women. Two wall hangings of ______________ birds, executed by Esther Barney, give the room its name and color scheme. The hangings depict in a stylized pattern, a group of blood-pink flamingoes standing in an ochre sunshine with a background of sky blue.

There are few changes in the spacious gold room, Sala de Oro. The decorative motif in this room is taken from a screen across which runs a luxurious vine and its blossom, the cup of gold.

Another screen by the same artist, Esther Barney, with its formalized pattern of the banana palm, catches the interest in the upstairs loggia, the ideal rendezvous for tea. The loggia is done in greens that are warmed with delicious touches of brown and accented with wine color, the same shade as the flower of the banana plant. The glassed-in loggia opens on a balcony that commands a secluded view of the park canyons to the south. Vivid bougainvillea clambering over the rail of the porch give immediate color.

Because the women of San Diego expect to inherit the House of Hospitality after Exposition days are over, the Women�s Executive Committee was permitted to approve the decorating of the main dining room of Café del Rey Moro in the building proper.

Here Mrs. Barney and her crew of artist helpers, Malcolm McDowell, Christopher Hobbs and Daniel Dickey, have finished window panels which are treasures of tropical beauty. Again, the broad leaves of the banana palm are used for background against which are patterned colorful semi-tropical fruits. There is also a palm stencil which takes care of a niche in the west wall, and between the glass doors on the south stand three golden apple trees --- most enticing.

The gay pation which captures the sunshine and flowers _____________ with a rare work of art, a fountain, "Aztec Woman with Olla," by Donal Hord, famous sculptor.

There is also a library, so attractive as to draw sightseers of a world�s fair, and a kitchen that is as modern as electricity, but which in decoration actually achieves a patina.

Truly, no feminine visitor to the Exposition will want to miss the House of Hospitality.

The House of Hospitality is the gathering place for cosmopolitan society at the Exposition. Social history is in the making there this season, as it was last.

It is fitting that functions honoring the elite of the world are set within its walls as the architecture, the furnishings and those in charge --- 23 of San Diego�s most gracious hostesses --- exemplify the spirit of entertainment in the southland.

The building originally was designed by Bertram Goodhue for the 1915-16 Exposition. At that time it was used for the Foreign Arts Exhibit. Mr. and Mrs. J. E. Gazvini of this city, who have charge of the International Arts Building, were awarded a gold medal at the close of the Exposition in 1916 for their magnificent display of foreign arts.

When it was decided to restore the buildings in Balboa Park two years ago, the women of San Diego asked for one where they might have official parties for visiting celebrities.

It was with this in mind that Richard Requa remodeled the Foreign Arts Building. It was renamed the House of Hospitality and turned over to the Women�s Executive Committee which, with the Exposition management, is in charge of activities there.

The building is to be turned over to the women of the city when the Fair closes.

The exterior of the House of Hospitality was patterned after a castle in Salamanca, Spain. Its plateresque tower, which reflects a soft mauve tint when the lights are turned on each evening, is a fine example of Spanish-Renaissance architecture.

It was only the interior which came in for remodeling. Requa had the roof cut away in the center of the patio, which he designed after the one in the museum of Guadalajara, a real Spanish-Colonial feature. The statue of the Aztec Woman with Olla by the San Diego sculptor Donal Hord is an original touch, although the Mexican museum patio has a pool and also a well, hidden among the banana plants, as they are in the House of Hospitality.

The main rooms of the House of Hospitality are the spacious Sala de Oro, or gold room, where receptions are staged, the upstairs loggia, where tea is served, and the striking Flamingo Room, which takes its name from stylized panels of the birds, done by Esther Stevens Barney.

This artist has done two decorative screens, one of which features the banana palm with its magenta blossoms for the loggia, and another with the cupa de oro vine and blossoms, which stand in the gold room. Mrs. Barney also did the window panels, the palm stencil and the orange trees, which decorate the Café del Rey Moro. This café is really a part of the House of Hospitality and will revert to the women after the Exposition closes.

Other features in this house of the gracious name, are the tea-time balcony with its gay tables and sunshades overlooking the busy Plaza on one side and a wooded park canyon on the other, the library, a cool retreat, and an auditorium where programs are staged daily.

6:3-4. Baby bank at Exposition is welcomed by mothers: It is the building occupied by the Pacific Pottery exhibit last year on Avenida de Espana, across from the Spanish Village. . . . A corps of nurses and teachers are in charge. . . . Children from two months up are accepted.

10:1-2. Interesting scientific exhibit in Palace of Education sponsored by Cal Tech.

San Diego Union, April 5, 1936, 13:2. Excellent library found in House of Hospitality, by Edna Woodhaus Snook.

In compliance with the three-fold purpose of the Exposition, to emphasize beauty, education and culture, the Women�s Executive Committee, the official hostess, has arranged a suite of lovely rooms in which to welcome guests of the Exposition, the Sala de Oro (room of gold), and on the west balcony, the charming Mexican loggia, where tea is served Friday afternoons and on special occasions when honor guests are entertained.

Adjoining this are the lovely Flamingo Lounge, the library in restful green, and the pleasant open-air decks overlooking the gardened Plaza del Pacifico.

No one can cross Cabrillo bridge, drink in the beauty of Balboa Park, and linger amid the exquisite Spanish-Colonial architecture of the Exposition, without feeling "Cabrillo�s thanks that California first began to be," and without longing to trace its varied story since that September day in 1542, when he and his scurvy-stricken crew found a safe shelter within "Loma�s protecting arm," a story full of changing flags, tradition, romance and poetry, and the beginning of all the west.

It has ever been a magnet of writers, who are giving us a delightful and ever-increasing literature all our own.

It is this literature that is being assembled in the little library, truly inviting with its easy chairs and Reiffel landscapes, Baldaugh sunflowers, and Shoven zinnias adorning the walls.

The writer of this article, chairman of the library committee, is indebted to Miss Marjorie Kobler, efficient San Diego County librarian, for assembling the major portion of the collection, and for preparing a reference list of outstanding books on California, including history, romance, flora, and a wide range of interests. Copies are available to all interested. Miss Kobler and Miss Cornelia Plaister, city librarian, are also arranging an interesting Exposition day program for the Convention of the State Library Association to be held in San Diego the last week in April.

Many local writers also have contributed of their books, brochures and poems on San Diego and California themes.

Winifred Davidson, our own historian, has sent her "Where California Began" and scrapbooks of her "Firsts" and "Place Names of California" by her husband, John Davidson, director of the Serra Museum.

San Diego Sun, May 29, 1936, II, 10:2. EDITORIAL: One Year Old. � Last year�s Exposition was a success as a theatrical presentation. This year�s phase of the Exposition is a success in every artistic sense and should prove to be far from a failure financially before it ends.

Yesterday the Exposition completed 12 month�s experience in publicizing the attraction of San Diego for tourists. That experience constitutes the most direct and permanent profit the community as a whole can draw from the undertaking. We have tried innumerable mans of entertaining the millions of visitors that the Exposition has attracted. Some of the attractions were completely successful, some have failed. In this record --- if it is kept intact, without any forgetting of mistakes --- San Diego has all the materials for forming a practical and intelligent publicity policy. The decision recorded by hundreds of impartial judges is written plainly in the records of daily attendance. In addition to the statistical data, every San Diegan can quote the verdict of many individuals who came, saw the park and expressed their opinion. We would guess, for example, that 999 out of every thousand visitors have agreed that the Exposition was staged in a setting of unparalleled beauty.

This experience is worth more than the total cost of the Exposition --- if San Diego will take it as a guide for shaping future policy.

Marked by increased attendance and with a great lineup of future attractions under contract, the California Pacific International Exposition this week opened its summer season, which promises to eclipse records set by the world�s fair last year.

Coincident with its first anniversary on Friday, May 29, the Exposition opened on a seven-day basis. During the winter season, the world�s fair was closed on Mondays. In the future exhibit palaces will be open from 10 a.m. until 10 p.m.

Olsen and Johnson, famous funsters of stage, radio and screen, supported by a cast of 50 people, just closed a five-day engagement in "Anything Happens." This production was given as a free attraction three times daily from May 28 to June 2.

Next big show scheduled is the Ken Maynard Wild West Circus and Indian Congress, the first old time wild west show to be seen in America in 23 years, which will be launched with a gala world premiere on the night of June 5. The Maynard show will be presented also on the following days, June 6 and 7, with Ken Maynard, film idol, appearing in person at every performance.

Cheyenne and Arapahoe Indians, cowboys and cowgirls, Russian Cossack daredevil horsemen, Mexican vaqueros, buffalo, camels, elephants, elk and other human and animal performers will mingle in a thrilling pageant of the last frontier. Highlights of the show include an Indian attack on a covered wagon train, burning of a frontier settlement, the Battle of the Wounded Knee and other spine-tingling episodes based on historical truth.

Numerous sensational outdoor acts will be presented to Exposition visitors simultaneously in different sections of the world�s fair grounds during the week beginning June 8. These will include Tommy and his Wonder Pony; Frank Evers and Dolores, tight-wire walkers; South Sea Samoans; a bevy of luscious dancers and instrumentalists; and the famous Piccianni Troupe, whose latest engagement was with Ringling Brothers as headliners.

Rodeo stars from all over the United States, Canada and Mexico again will congregate at the world�s fair here on June 26, 27 and 28 when the annual Lakeside Rodeo will be staged.

Earlier in the season the Exposition sponsored the Frontier Days and International Rodeo, declared by veterans to be one of the finest rodeos ever presented at any time.

Most of the stars who took part in that successful show will return in June to participate in the Lakeside Rodeo, which is expected to pass the splendid record set by the first rodeo.

The policy of the Exposition management is to present a variety of attractions of all types, designed to appeal to varied preferences of all visitors.

As announced exclusively in the Herald last week, Tin Pan Alley --- a place where a gazabo can go and enjoy himself --- is now going full blast on the Midway, adjoining the Days of �49. Tin Pan Alley offers amusement and entertainment entirely different from anything else on the Midway. It is more like the notorious "Gold Gulch," where everybody went last year when in quest of a real good time.

Visit the Den of Iniquity, see Flaming Fanny, Frisco Nell, Little Egypt and all the other Red Hot attractions. Listen to the Barkers --- then pay your dime and go inside --- you won�t be disappointed.

San Diego Herald, June 4, 1936, 1:3. The Herald is pleased to announce that the Exposition management has decided to keep in force its policy of admitting all servicemen in uniform free to the Exposition. . . .

Belcher�s remarks [that the San Diego Exposition is San Diego�s greatest asset for the next three months] were unusually timely and also unusually pertinent in that they came when we were being informed that the attendance at the Dallas Exposition is running some 35,000 or 40,000 a day, and this with the thermometer around 110. San Diego�s Fair is running far below these attendance figures and one of the reasons is an apathy which has descended upon residents here and from which they should arouse themselves.
