LYNDEN MAY SEEK TO
ATTRACT TOURISTS
Stream OF Automobiles On Summer
Trips May Be Diverted Here; Club
To Consider Problem

Shall Lynden provide an automo.
bile camping park for tourists and
endeavor to attract some OF the bis
stream of visitors to the Northwest
to this section?
That Is the question that was dis
cussed by the Lynden Community
Club Monday night, and committee
was named to go into the details OF
the question.
Thousands of automobile parties
will visit Whatcom County on siRht-
seeing excursions this summer. COM
ing both from Seattle and points to
the south. and from Canada. Lyn-
den, not being located directly
on the Pacific Highway. has missed
these visitors in the past. but 1t Is
pointed out now that one or two In
vitational signs telling Of the beauties
OF the Lynden district. and its ad-
vantages, would draw traffic this
way, II placed at important junction
points in Bellingham, and at the
Canadian line.
Bellingham and Ferndale already
have provided free camping sites for
auto parties, and have fixed up con-
veniences for them.
Among the other questions that
we're brought up at the meeting was
a proposal that the city stores open
at seven and close at five during the
months Of April through October
There would he no change OF clocks'
but simply a different schedule adopt
ed by the stores.
This will be discussed more fully
at the March meeting Of the club.

CITY ASKS PAVING OF
EVERSON RIVER ROADS
Lynden Community Club Sends Com
Nearer Highways

To urge upon the County Commis-
sioners the advisability Of paving the
north river road and the south river
road to Everson, as opposed to the
route along the Geiger road one mile
south Of the Greenwood school. the
Lynden Community Club appointed
Ia committee at its meeting Monday
night with instructions to wait upon
the county board.
It was pointed out at the meeting
that Lynden was vitality interested
In a quick route to Everson. and that
the southern Geiger road would make
the journey between the two towns
two miles longer. The inconvenience
and extra expense to the farmers and
business men of the two towns would
be considerable, 1t was said. The
large peat bog area that the Geiger
road must traverse would make paw
ing expensive and difficult. while but
a handful of people would be served
by the road as against the hundreds
along the roads through the rich riv-
or bottom districts. 1t was pointed
out.
The hearings on the three routes
were held Tuesday, and hearing OH
the graveling Of the road running
from the Nooksack River two miles
to Fishtrap Creek. No action on any
Of the roads was taken by the COM
miissoners.

COUNCIL PLANS RAISE
IN CITY WATER RATES
And Board Will Determine In.
crease This Week

That water rates of the Town OF
Lynden must be raised to meet vast
ly increased costs of operation, is the
decision of the City Council. The an
nual report of the City Clerk showed
the council that the department was
under heavy expense compared with
conditions five years ago. and that
more money would be needed.
The water board. consisting of P.
M. Serrurier, Gerrit Van Leeuwen,
and A. A. Bauman, will meet this
week to prepare a new schedule of
rates.
No change has been made in wat
er rates for years. in spite of con-
stantly increasing expenses. so that
action on the part of the council Is
necessary to avoid q deficit. The big
tower supporting the tank is in need
of attention now. and 1t may be nee,
essary to replace 1T altogether this
.ear.
