Army Is out in full force, and they
proceed to exhort the sinner to forsake
his evil ways. People drive up and
down in carriages. sometimes stopping
to listen and now and then drop a coin
into some little lassie's hand. An auto
mobile darts here and there among
the throng. and there are bicycles ga

A Rare Bicycle Path

Twenty-Five miles Of highway, grad
ed and bridged like a railroads right
of way, cindered like a millionaire's
private race track, cleared through
heavy timber and carried around the
precipitous sides of lakes on level
shelves high above the water, and ded-
icated to the exclusive use of the wheel
is the result of long and persistent eff
fort made by wheelmen of Seattle
against seemingly impossible obstacles.
The population of Seattle, like all
western cities, is largely recruited from
the eastern states. Thus it was that
many people, accustomed to the level
roads of the middle states and the
rolling highways which make wheeling
i'm the thickly populated east such a
pleasure, came to this city of hills,
with it's beautiful surroundings of
sound. lake, river and forest, and un-
packed their wheels in all ergerness.
Disappointment at once awaited these
enthusiasts, for that same nature
which had been so lavish in her gifts
to the eye had not smoothed highways
for the bicycle. The very hills which
seemed so inviting to the would-be
rider effectually blocked his way, and
the very forests which looked so cool
on hot summer day were penetrated
here and there only by narrow, dusty
lanes or rough, plank floored country
roads.
But the energetic wheelmen refused
to be confined to the paved streets of
Seattle's limited level business dis
trict, and the county commissioners
began to feel a pressure to make good
the main highways that the bicycles
might be used with pleasure in the
country. 1t was not long before the
Queen city. good roads club" was
formed, for the purpose of systemat-
izing the efforts toward good road
building, and to construct a bicycle
path from the northern city limits
along the shore of Lake Washington
to the southern city limits, a project
which promised an uninterrupted ride
would wind in and out of heavy tim
Der. alternately dipping into the shad-
ed, cool and circling on the overhang-
ing bank above the lake.
One of the first steps taken by the
club was to secure an action on the
part of the city council to tax every
bicycle in town 81 per year. This tax,
excepting small fee deducted by the
city for the cost of collection and reg
istration, was turned over to a COM
mission to be spent on the building
and maintenance of bicycle paths. So
well did the plan result that it has
been maintained, with but small modi-
fication, and has resulted in the per-
fection of the present system of paths.
There are three main divisions of this
bicycle highway, namely, the Lake
Washington path, the Lake Union path
and the Magnolia bluff path. The
grades are very slight, the builders not
hesitating to cut through a bank and
bridge over a ravine almost as care
fully as would be done for a narrow
gauge railroad. The surface of the
paths is well cindered. making them
dustless in the dry season and firm in
the rainy weather.
A Chicago man, riding about the
path, said: "Give me the Lake Wash
ington bicycle path in Chicago, with
a wire fence about it, and / will make
a million dollars out of it."-Country
