according to e. H. Larson,
New roads are highly desirable ana

Larson says, but II Is obvious to point
out that roads that have no. yet been
built cause no accidents. America IL
sorely in need OF wider roads because

continued increase among motor We

We must give more attention to the

three -fourths OF our collisions and ac-
cidents are due to the narrowness Of
the roads

Uniontown, tho road is continued
through Washington, Pa, crossing
the State line just beyond into West
Virginia to Wheeling, where the Ohio
River Is crossed into Ohio--the State
made famous by the nomination OF
Senator Harding and Gov. Cox on
both the Republican and Democratic
tickets. From Wheeling through
Cambridge and Zanesville-to Co
lumbus the road passes through pas
toral scenery and some of Ohio's
most fertile farm lands. From Co
lumbus, the capital city, a side trip
can be made to Marion, the homo OF
Senator Harding. by running due
North through Worthington, Lewis
City, Delaware and Prospect, or an
alternate road can be taken from
Delaware through Norton and Wal
do to Marion. II the mortorist wish
es to return over a different route,
from Marion continue North through
Bacyrus and Attica to the trunk line
between Norwalk and Harmony,
which name is applicable TO both
parties at the present time, to
Springfield, then South through Fair
field TO Dayton, the home Of Gov.
Cox. II the motorist wishes to exc
tend the tour TO Chicago, the route
can be continued from Dayton to
Indianapolis and Lafayette, or a side
trip can be made from Dayton to Gin
cinnati. Excellent hotel accofnoda-
lions can be obtained at Newark,
Philadelphia, Lancaster, York, Union
town, Wheeling, GAINESVILLE. Column
bus, Springfield, Dayton Cincinnati,
Indianapolis Lafayette. and OF course,
Chicago.
The return route can be made by
running from Chicago through South
Bend TO Toledo, then through Cleve-
land, Erie, Buffalo, Syracuse, Utica
and Albany returning TO New York
on either side of the Hudson River,
both OF which are good. Or the route
can be reversed by leaving New York
via the 100 Street Ferry and running
through Hackensack. Suffern and
Tuxedo to Newburgh, thence through
Highland to Kingston and along the
west side of the Hudson to Albany.
From Albany, the Mohawk Valley is
followed through Schenectady. Am
sterdam, Utica, Syracuse and Geneva
to Buffalo. or an excellent alternate
route can be made from Geneva to
Rochester and Niagara Ealls. then TO
Buffalo. Motorists can place their
car on DOdTu boat al DuutllO OuC
hour before sailing time, which is
7.S0 Standard Time, and go to either
Cleveland, Toledo or Detroit. and mo-
tor from there on to Chicago. Or II
the entire trip is made by motor. the
Lake Shore route can be used with
unsatisfactory conditions between
Silver Creek and Westfleld, and a
short stretch of poor road between
Erie and Ashtabula- II the motorist
wishes to go through Marion, there
is good road between Norwalk and
Bellevue which runs due South
through Bucyrus to Marion. then on
to Columbus. II the boat Is taken to
Detroit, II is preferable to run South
through Monroe to Toledo, then West
through South Bend to Chicago, as
the roads are in somewhat poor con-
dillon between Ypsilanti and Jack
son on the Detroit Kalamazoo route
The distance between New York
and Chicago via the cold National
Trail and Indianapolis is 960 miles,
and the distance via Albany. Buffalo,
Cleveland, Toledo to Chicago is 1,045
miles. The road condition is about
the same either way-75 per cent.
