WILL START ON JUNE

Arrangements are now being COM
pleted for a three day Boost Good
Roads" trip by merchants and pro-
fessional men Of this city. The itine'
rary, which is not fully completed,
will include all towns on the north
and south branches of the vNorthern
Pacific and Dickinson and >the trip
will be made Wednesday, Thursday
and Friday Of next week.
A meeting was held late yesterday
afternoon in the Commercial club by
the good road boosters, P. r. Fields
presiding. The committee which will
draw up the itinerary, consists of Burt
Finney, f. A. Copelin and Charles
Anderson. The membership and fin
ance committee consists Of AL Rosen,
Robert Webb and r. M. Bergeson.
There was considerable discussion
over the proposed itinerary as it was
thought advisable to cover all of the
towns west Of the river, however,
it was found impossible to cover
the north and south branches and the
main line towns on a three day tour,
so it was decided to let the main
line towns, with the exception OF
Dickinson, go until later when spe-
cial trip will probably be made to
these towns. ,
Cameron to Fly 49,
It was decided to have the good
roads boosters leave here early IN
the morning of June 2 so that the
crossing of the river could be ac-
complished with the minimum of de-
lay. Lieut.. C. ]. Cameron will pre-
cede the good roads boosters in his
airplane and will alight at every town
the tourists visit The Elks' band
will be another feature of the trip,
as a large portion of the success of
the Ashley-Wishek trip was due to
its entertainment.
A fleet of trucks will accompany
the caravan and the schedule will be
so drawn that the trucks will be able
to keep up with the faster auto
mobiles. The trucks will be started
across the river the night before the
start is made and will be picked up
later along the road by the remain
der of the caravan.
