MOTOR CLUB IS TO
PUSH CAMPAIGN TO
IMPROVE RED TRAIL

Pledging support to the plan to
complete grading work on the Red
Trail across Stark county and giving
assurance that financial and moral
aid would be given the project, the
Dickinson Auto Club held an enthusi-
astic meeting in rooms of the Com
mercial Club Monday night. Club
members voted donation of $50 to
the fund which will be used in road
improvement and a determined cam
paign will be started for additional
donations throughout the city. The
meeting was well attended, large
number of local boosters being pres
ent. Charles Offet Of Gladstone was
an out-of-town visitor.
The meeting was called to order by
President F. w. Turner and after
transaction of routine business, mat
ters of special interest were consid-
cred. Reports from other towns in
terested in the better roads propa-
ganda were encouraging. It was
Stated that $3.50 already had been
contributed in Richardton, about 5000
in Taylor, and that approximately
$125 had been donated by citizens of
Hebron. The Hebron donation is es-
pecially worthy Of notice, that town
being in Morton county, but residents
there realize the value of good roads
to such extent that they are willing
to aid in financing project in an
other county. s.S .-... ...,. ~: -
Places Stark in Front Rank.
Other organized territories in The
county will finish the grading in their
sections, and endeavor to help in
every way in bringing the project to
successful completion. When work of
grading the trail is completed through
this county, it will place Stark in as
good condition as any county in the
state with regard to through routes
of travel.
There is considerable agitation for
placing the Red Trail in condition, not
only for tourist and commercial
travel, but for military purposes, il
being the desire of those boosting this
movement to have the route in such
good condition that heavy military
trains might be transported thereover
Arrangements were made during
the meeting whereby President Turner
will represent the club at the Ma.
tional Parks Highway Association
meeting in Spokane, Wash, beginning
April 9th. This will be one of the
largest good roads sessions ever hello
in the northwest, and representatives
will be present from Illinois, Wiscon.
sin, Minnesota, North Dakota, Mon.
tana, Idaho, Washington, Oregon anc
California. A strong representative
body will also be in attendance from
British Columbia, where there is keer
interest in the improvement of the
National Parks highways.
