BIG RED trail
MEET i; ] PLANNED A.
North Dakota Section Of the
National Parks Highway,
to Meet at Mandan.

Bismarck, N. D., March IL. The
annual meeting Of the North Dakota
section Of the National Parks Highway
association will be held at the Lewis
& Clark hotel in Mandan on March II
every town which the Red trail serves

Among the subjects announced for
discussion are How Are .Road Funds

ton of the Several Types Of Roads, y
Thorough Sign Posting Free

And Garage Service" and Friendly
Courtesy to the Passing Tourist"
The Red trail has been immortal
lied during the last year by Emerson
Hough and Sinclair Lewis, both Of
whom have dealt with, the splendors
of the National Parks highway in
articles appearing in the Saturday
Evening Post. The Red trail, from
Minneapolis to Seattle, furnished the
locale for Sinclair Lewis's best serial
Of the year. Free Air." and also
much of the material for an interest
under the title Of "Autohoboing."
Expect Big Year.
AS result an unusual amount Of
traffic is anticipated for 1920, and
towns all along the route are making
provisions for the reception of their
guests. Dickinson has already pro-
vided free camp site, with water,
electric lights and other facilities and
it is probable that Bismarck and other
important towns on the trail will fol-
low suit. A feature which has made
the trail popular is the fact that a
large town, with first class hotel and
garage accommodations, may be found
at intervals Of 120 miles all the way
from Minneapolis to Seattle, making
it possible for tourists to cover the
transcontinental trek in easy stages.
Another advantage lies in the fact
that there is no real desert country on
tho Red trail, a handicap which none
Of the other transcontinentai routes
can avoid
