Lankershim,the Friendly Community

UST ovcr the hills fron Holly$ood lies the suburban community
of Lankershim, only teD miles from the Los Angeles business
dist]'ict. Lankelshim is $.here the San F€rnaDdo Valley bcgirs
that 125,000 acre garden of Los Angeles where soil, water, climate
and industry 1'aised the plodigious total of tweDt)-five Dlillior dol-
lars'worth of market-basket products last I'ear. LAl reNhinl, long
hno$n as the "Hone of the Peach" place, has now, through the trans-
formatioD of its acres oI braDching orchards ilto broad thorough-
far€s and beautiful hone sites, becomethe "Peach of a Holr1c" place.
Almost over right LaDkelshim has ar.isen ir this lnnd oI pleDty.
From 2372 persons jD 1922, it has glo1{-n to a thdftl' connunity of
5360 ill 1923 126 Dercent iDcrease ir orle year'. Today its twenty-
eiglrt mode'-n loons fail to accommodate the school population, and
three additional llew irltemediate schools and A DlasrificeDt new
high -choolr|e soorrlo be built Lpon beaul:iu silF" r'ecn;tly providpd.
This ph€no eral glowth oI Lankershim is due to natulal ad-

It restles hcath the hills in ore of the ost beautiful sDots in

Southerr Califoruin. It has delightful tree-boldered streets, {'ell or-
dered homes, fine high*ays, rapid electric aDd stean lines, modern
stores, strong banl(s, good churches, dependableIealtors.
Back of it is the urge of a grcat, glo$'ing, nasterful city. Just
be)-oDdis a vet'itabie empile. A charming noultain-gift va]ley, r'ich
as Croesus iu natural $'ea1th and oppo unity.
