The Idaho recorder. [volume] (Salmon City, Idaho) 1886-1927, 1916-07-28
Membership Starts With a jump,
at a Dollar as the Fee Body
10 Take Hand in Highway Inn
prOVement.

Asa result of the campaign for
membership, started on Tuesday, In
Salmon, for the Central Good Roads
association, upward of hundred
names we're secured at once. The
two hanks are tile places of enroll
ment. 1t costs one dollar as a Joining
fee which all men OF affairs con-
slider not only bounden duty to
plank down tut esteem it an honor
and privilege to do 80 in a most
worthy cause. For this reason the
membership is growing by leaps and
bounds. Every good citizen is be-
hind the movement, either in SYM
patny or active affiliation.
1t Was two months ago that Roy
b. llerndon first broached the sub.
iect of such an organization, having
enlisted the active support of the
Business Mems association. A COM
mittee of this body. through l.. +.
Ramey, chairman, and Allen &.
Merritt, secretary, pushed forward
the enterprise, until Charles A. Nor
ton was chosen permanent presiding
officer and Mr.. Merritt secretary.
1t was pointed out at the begin
ming that the state and general
government, like providence, would
lend helping hand only to those
who help themselves. And 50 the
idea of this organiztiln took firm
hold after it had It's beginning.
1t has come to stay and TO work
out the solution OF the transportation
problem. In many localities there
are to be bond issues to provide
funds for road building. 1t is more
than likely that the Central assOcia-
tion will take action to the same end,
with influence enough behind the as
sociation to insure the adoption OF
that plan in this county Other
communities have given approval u
this method of paying for good roads,
Money is now plentiful and seeking
investment, SO that the sale of Sucl
bonds, even at home, is practical
Right from the jump there was q
boom for membership, as the follow
