Good Roads.

Colorado Springs, Colo, March
"A large delegation of Colorado
good roads enthusiasts will visit
Missouri during the month of April
if plans now under way materalize.
1t is proposed to make an automo-
bile sociability tour, starting at the
foot of Pixies Peak and reaching as
far east as Indianapolis, and posi-
bly, to Chicago, Dayton, Columbus
and Cincinnati. The tour will cover
total of 5000 miles, and will re-
quire three weeks schedule. 1t is
expected that the start will be made
about April 8 or 10.
The eastbound trip will be made
over the Pixies Peak Ocean to Ocean
Highway, which extends in almost
straight line from Colorado
Springs and Manitou through east
ern Colorado, northern Kansas,
Missouri, Illinois and Indiana to In
dianapolis where it merges with the
National Old Trails road; the dis
lance from Pixies Peak to the Hoosi-
er metropolis being exactly 1900
miles.
After reaching Indianapolis it is
proposed to spend several Gays
visiting some of the larger cities in
Indiana and Illinois; but the exact
route has not as yet been selected.
1t is also uncertain as to what road
will be adopted for the return
journey. although the schedule will
be so arranged as to visit both St.
Louis and Kansas City. The Santa
Fe trail, the Golden Belt road, the
Red Line and the Kansas White
Way are under consideration; and
there is possibility that the return
may be by way of the Lincoln
Highway or some of the other roads
through Iowa and Nebraska.
The object of this sociability run
is to promote more friendly rela-
tons between the people of Colorado
and the states of the Mississippi
valley. and to let the eastern motor
ist know that there is available for
his transcontinental trip a practical
highway through the great scenic
wonderland of Colorado and Utah.
The tour is being arranged under
the auspices OF the Colorado Springs
Chamber of Commerce, The Mani
tou Springs Commercial Club and
other associations of Colorado. Al
committee is now engaged in gath
ering road information with a view
to making up a definite itinerary.
