MARK ROUTE FOR
AUTOS This WAY?
Davenport Club TO Further Work
Across Continent Begun by 4
Southern CaIifOrnians.

The automobile club of southern
California is now engaged in sign
posting a transcontinental route from
Los Angeles TO Kansas City. Upon the
completion OF this work they expect
TO continue the signposting on to
New York.
J. Reed Lane, president of the
Davenport automobile club. has been
in correspondence with the officials
OF the transcontinentaI route with
view of having st pass through the
tri-cities. He has received practical
assurance that this viii be done and
in return Mr.. Lane has agreed that
Davenporters will assume the eX-
pense of posting the signs for dis
lance OF 80 miles on either side of
Davenport or a total of 90 miles.
The route out OF California follows
the line of the Santa Fe railway,
through Barstow, Needles, KOngman,
Williams. and Flagstaff. where de-
tours TO the Grand canyon can be
made; then through TO Holbrook.
where the petrified forests are reach
ed. on through the Indian country to
Albuquerque and Santa Fe, where
the most interesting cliff dwellings
and cave dwellings lie but a few miles
of the main road: thence on TO Las
Vegas. Ration, Trinidad, La Junta.
Dodge city. Council Grove, and on
TO Kansas City.
Having been successful in securing
the necessary cooperation, two and
one-half ton specially designed con-
struction truck. with a crew of three
men. left Los Angeles for the purpose
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1915-04-28

of erecting the posts and signs along
the route, the same having been ship
ped TO points so to 100 miles apart
along the entire route. This truck is
designed to carry posts and signs for
approximately 100 miles of road.
II was further determined in order
to provide feeders for this route, TO
construct a sign system northward
through Colorado from Trinidad,
through Pueblo, Colorado Springs,
Denver. Greeley, Fort Morgan, Ster-
ling, and Julesburg, to d connecting
point with the Lincoln highway at
Big Springs, Nebraska, thus tapping
a number of important cross-couEtry
highways reaching into Colorado, as
well as the Lincoln highway itself.
The type of construction consists
of two inch galvanized iron posts, II
feet in length. set 80 inches in the
ground. and firmly anchored, each
post being surmounted by two or
more signs. as occasion requires. The
top sign is uniform throughout, bear
ing the emblem OF the National Old
Trails road. This sign is is by is
inches, IS gauge steel. porcelain
enameled. The lower, or direction
sign, is of the same material and
workmenship-1S by q inches-with
its direction arrows pointing TO the
principal town and to the nearest,
however. unimportant town in each
direction. with mileage thereto. At
important cross roads, particularly
where same lead to cities or towns
within reasonable distance. auxiliary
signs, by % inches, are set on the
posts at proper angles, thus making
the signposting system Of local as
we'll as transcontinental service.
