ROUTE is EASY.
Auto Travel Faster Than Train Across

That the scenic highway through the
Occur dAlene district is not valuable
alone for its beauty of vegetation and
big mines was evidenced last week
when record run was made by autos
through the district in the Chicago
Seattle relay race. The delivery of the
message to the Seattle executive three
hours ahead of schedule and in less
than 100 hours out OF Chicago was pos
sible only by the time saved in getting
lover the divide from Montana into
Washington by taking the Occur

When Ben Braham made his dash
into Spokane from Wallace in two

roads and through the far famed
Fourth of July canyon, he not only

to the advantages offered by the Occur
