NEWBURGH VIA GAP
GOOD AUTO route
Beautiful Scenery Offered
Motorist for Run Up Hudson
Over Labor Day
MANY FAMOUS OLD TOWNS

The motorist who Is planning an ex.
tended run over Labor Day will find
the trip to Newburgh. N. T., by way
of Delaware Water Gap journey of
singular beauty. The good highways
that lead to Newburgh are lined with
old trees which still hold their gorgeous
eummer foliage, and the bordering
countryside of farms has not yet begun
To show the brilliance of autumn.
II is approximately 100 miles from
this city to the upper Hudson. Ii the
driver Is willing to take a chance on
the type of roads he will encounter in
northern New Jersey, the return trip,
which cuts off fifteen miles,. can be made
by way of Tarrytown, Newark and
Trenton. But whoever takes this route
must do so with the likelihood of running
into bad roads. which have been under
going repairs all summer. Late reports
saw that the improvements are not yet
finished.
The motorist has a choice of good
burgh, Tarrytown and Nyack and any
of these old towns will prove interest
ing for the visitors.
The roads from here to Delaware
Water Gap by way of Willow Grove,
Doylestown. Easton and Bangor are
good From the Gap good time can be
made over the well repaired highways
that connect the famous Delaware river
beauty spot with Bushkill. Dingmans
Ferry, Milford. Port Jervis. Middle
town, Goshen, Little Britain and New
burgh.
On arriving at Newburgh it is up
TO the motorist to decide whether he
wishes to return as he came or 90 back
by way of Beacon, n. Y, which is
reached by ferry from Newburgh.
The towering Hudson Palisades are
passed through on the eGst side of the
river until famous old Tarrytown is
gained. Another ferry is necessary. to
Tecross to Nyack. In this way New
York city is avoided, but the beautiful
suburbs are enjoyed.
Uncertain roads from Nyack on must
be expected. Newark is the first city
passed through. then Elizabeth, Rah-
way. Metuchen. New Brunswick, Gran
berry, Hightstown, Trenton, Lang
horne and Bustleton follow in close sue
cession until Philadelphia is reached.
