and then drove down the ocean
load to Los Angeles and Holly

They visited a slster-in-lav,
Mrs. .Jack Dwyer, who for
merly lived in Omaha, and some
nieces and nephews. On the
way back they visited another
nephew, Dr. Eld ward Carroll of
Ventura, Calif.
Bill Hammond of Los Angeles
took them to Knott's berry farm
where the first boysenberries
were grown. It is a traditional
old-fashioned western farm
where one sees old relics of
trains, coaches, horses and wag
ons and other mementos of long
ago.
At Santa Barbara they stayed
. * the motel owned by Mrs J. H.
McPharlin’s son - in - law and
daughter, Mr and Mrs, Jimmy
Chapman. Mrs. Chapman is the
f irmer Pauline McPharlin. They
h*»d been there only 15 minutes
before they met Mr and Mrs.

Raymond Moley, Newsweek mag
azine writer. Mr. Moley was
present during both the Coyne
and GUligan visits.
The Coynes drove to Reno, Nev.,
and visited Virginia City, the
oldest mining camp in the West.
A man has bought the town and
is retaining it in the same condi
tion it was when deserted. At
Squaw Valley, where the Olympic
games are to be held in four
years, they saw the ski jumps
and the lodge.
After Lake Tahoe, the highest
mountain lake, and Mount Tanoe,
they went through the pass and
experienced sheer drops on one
side and dangerous cliffs cm the
other Mrs. Coyne related, “I’m
glad we went in daytime, because
we could see where we were go
ing and be careful. Yet, at night
we never would have known tne:
vastness of the drops on both
sides of us.”
At San Jose, they visited Mr.
Coyne’s nephew. Francis Fat tor.
All along the way they gather
ed bits of historic and prese.it
day information.
The Coynes are regarded as
one of O’Neill's widest traveled
couples. About two years ago
they made an extensive tour of
Europe.

‘John Wesley’ Film
to Be Shown Here
The motion picture “John
Wesley" is coming to O’Nefll and
will be shown at the O’Neill
Methodist church on Sunday,
August 26 at 8 p.m.. according
to the pastor, Rev. Glenn Kenni
cott. A fret* will offering will be
taken.
The feature-length film is in
Eastman color and was produced
by the radio and film commission
of the Methodist church in coop
eration with J. Arthur Rank.
It brings to screen for the first
time the dynamic and colorful
18th century evangelist and edu
cator.
John Wesley’s miraculous res
cue from a burning house at the
age of five, at the beginning of
the film, forcasts the dramatic
and eventful life which unfolds
in this story of a man of slight
stature but of impelling influ
ence upon his contemporaries
and upon history.
Wesley was an American mis
sionary in Georgia, where he
thought he failed; he traveled
250-thousand-miles on horseback;
his appeal to the common man
helped transform the world.
