Pacific Highway
Will Soon Open
Road From Vancouver, B. c.,
To Mexico Will Offer
Route for Autos.

OLYMPIA. sept. 3o.-By 1925 one
will be able to travel the entire
length of the Pacific .highway-from
Vancouver. Il. C.. to the Mexican
border-over paved highways. Di-
rector T. II. Macdonald. of the
United States Bureau of Roads, said
when he completed his visit to the
Coast and started East. Mr.. Mac
Donald had been given this assur-
ance in California. but he reserved
his own Judgment until he had
Travelled over the Washington roads
and was fully satisfied the state
ment is true.
The thirty-six miles of paving in
Cowiitz and Lewis counties, and two
and one-half miles of paving to be
done on the Chuckanut Mountain
section of the Pacific highway in
Whatcom County will be completed
next year. and give a paved high
way in Washington between the
Canadian boruer and the Columbia
River Oregon will be finished in
plenty of time. There has been a
marked reluctance on the part OF
California officials TO pave the
Pacific highway in northern Calf
fornia. but the road now is hard
surfaced north of Redding, and Di-
rector Macdonald was assured that
Federal and and State funds would
be applied to finishing the Job.
Here are some of the things that
Director Macdonald said about
washington:
This State offers better co-opera-
tion with the Bureau of Roads than
any other State in the Union. Wash
ington was the first to file and have
approved its map OF Federal aid
highways. The highway division
here is applying for and using its
share of Federal aid moneys faster
than any other State. thus indicat-
ing Washington Is getting a first
class highway system as rapidly as
possible. The roads built in Wash
ington are not excelled by any other
State. and Director Macdonald was
especially impressed by the align
ments and grades obtained.
Emphatic approval was given by
Director Macdonald of the WASH
ington .olicy of building twenty
foot highways. Some OF the roads
he saw on this Coast were but six
teen feet in width. but they cost as
much as WashinGtOn's twenty-foot
pavements
Washington's policy of see.,ing
and using routes that offer low
grades without dangerous curves
was highly complimented by Di-
rector Macdonald. In Eastern States
these curves have been impossible

CITIES ESTABLISH
MOTOR CAMP SITES

The outlook now is that by the
spring of 1923 these good old United
States will be almost one camp site

tion. The camp site idea started in
the West. but other sect ons of the
country were quick. to take it up.
Plans are in the making for the es-
tablishment of such sites all along
the main travelled roads.
Municipalit' es have take the plan
seriously and motor clubs are as

much to brag of. but they are now
being improved from every stand

ANTELOPE BEING WIPED OUT
Despite Possession Of Remarkable
Signaling System the Animals
Are Rapidly Disappearing.

The American pronghorn antelope Is
approaching extinction. Formerly
roaming from the Saskatchewan to
Mexico, and east to the Missouri river,
1t is now confined to few hundred
wild animals and few more In en-
closures =
Rowing creatures, easily the swift
est runners on the continent, living
mainly in the open, they have be-
come easy prey for long-range rifles
when fieet-footed enemies were cas-
lily outdistanced.
Even their remarkable signaling
system has not saved them. Ernest
Seton-Thompson has explained how,
on approach Of some strange object,
the antelope through set Of muscles
raises with a jerk the hairs on the
white rump patches on either side.
This flash shines afar like a patch
of snow, and the message is read by
all who have noses to read, for with
the flash of hair is liberated an odor
of musk from gland located in
patch of brown hair In the white
bloom.
The flash is given and away they
go. If the flash. Is not seen their
