others OF less influence.
Later, in 1912-13, a local committee
soughs to secure action in the con.
struction of the highway. A certain
lack of local cooperation contributed
to a lack of interest on The part of

fand Loudonville bands, while the
crowd was gathering in the grand.
stand.
The judges stand opposite the
grandstand. which it had been pur-
posed to use as speakers stand,
was found to be too far distant, and
an automobile was forced to do duty
as stand from a nearer point.
1t was $50 o'clock when Joint
Chairman w. l.. Robinson began to
address the company facing Elm. The
occasion that had brought them to-
gethcr he reminded them, was an
event that promised to be of the very
greatest importance to Knox and Ash
land counties. They had come to this
place as friends and neighbors. Hith-
erto. hills had separated and divided
them. Nature had placed between
them obstacles that had made inter-
communication slow and always diff
cult and hazardous.
The skill and ingenuity of men has
removed these hitherto unsurmount-
able obstacles, and this occasion was
in celebration of that fact Mr.. Rob-
inson quoted State Director of High
ways 1Ierrick as regarding the c. G.
G.. highway as the most important of
the states highways. AS one of the
main market roads in the state sys-
TEN, it is an artery in the great net
work of commerce.
Chairman Robinson mentioned re-
grotlully the receipt of messages an
nouncing the inability of Governor
Davis and Director Hcirick to be
present lie mentioned the import
ant part each had played in making
possible the construction and com
pletion of this highway.

Bebout Speakc

BeDou! Sr"akc
II. J. ,Bebout. president OF tho
Ioudonville Chamber of Commerce.
was the first speaker presented. lie
spoke as one coming to his old home
town, recalling his earlier life spent
in Mt. Vernon. He recalled that his
first trip to Loudonville over the
route of this highway, by horse and
buggy, was a difficult matter os some
five or six hours The road then was
passable only at certain seasons of
tho year.
1t appealed to him that these hills
separating Mt. Vernon ana Loulon-
vile actually divided Ohio into two
distinct sections, neither of which
had anything in common with the
othe.'.
Mr.. Bebout referred with eXpra3-
sions of regret to the unavoidable alb
sence of Governor Davis and Director
HIerrick. He concluded with an ap-
preciative Introduction of Messrs.
Shaffer, Ogden and zerker, commits
sioners of Ashland county, whose CO.
operation with tho commissioners OF
Knox county and with the state high
way department. had made possible
the construction of this section of the
G. c, G. highway.
Vice President Zenno ID. Taylor of
the Mt. Vernon Chamber of Com
merce was presented and spoke also
for the Knox county people. He gave
to tho visitors coming from Ashland
county an assurance of cordial and
n kindly welcome. He spoke of the
c. c. G, highway as a great engineer
| ing feat, the rewards and benefits
/ from which already are being enjoy
cd. Compressing engines from the
! G, e. G. Cooper Go. shops in Mt Yer
non have been going over this high
way into the gas field to make pos
sible a supply Of natural gas whether
there be coal or not. Without this
! highway 1t would have heen impos-
able to have transported these en-
eines into the gas field. Such results
of easy transportation are certain to
rroyo valuable. Ease of access and
Of traffic promotes acquaintance and
friendship.
Chairman Robinson, in brief
speech Of appreciation, introduced
Commissioners McMillen, Bradrick
and Shurr, whose cooperation with
the Ashland county commissioners
and the state highway department
has been invaluable in carrying for
ward the construction of this section
Of this important highway.
Van Voorhis Gives History
County Engineer Carl Van Voorhis
who for years has been intimately as
sociated with the construction of tho
C, C, C. highway through Knox coun
ty. was called upon to give brie
history OF the highway. Deprecatin.
the fact that he had been called upor
as a "pinch hitter" and had no oppor
tunity to prepare, Mr. Van Voorhis II
the short talk he gave placed befor,

the history of the c. G. G. highway

Mr.. Weirick Speaks

M. Weirck OF LoudOnvlile also
spoke in connection with TIE history
and construction of the c. C. c. high
way. While not now so numbered,
the highway originally was designat-
ed as main market road No TO- Men
tion was made of a call made by a
Loudcnville committee upon then Di-
rector Cowan. Mt. Vernon also was
represented by committee. It was
only after the advocates were able to
enlits the support oe the OHIO Good
Roads federation they were able to
make any progress.
In Ashland county they had to
meet the opposition of others who
sellshly sought only their own inter
ests. Fortunately, the county had a
board of commissioners who are
broad-minded.
county now is holding up its con
struction there. The speaker under
stood that Director llerrck at that
moment was in conference with the
Holmes county commissioners to
show them what they must do next
year.
Jesse Taylor, former president of
the Ohio Good Roads federation, was
mentioned as being the first to indi-
cate the folly of patchwork road con
struc lion. Seyenty-live per cent of
the taxes paid for road building in
OHIO is paid by the six large cities of
the state. II is but right and proper
the cities should direct where this
money should be spent.
The Ohio road laws are so excel
lent that they have been adopted by
other states and by congress.
Mentioning the completed section
of Ike highway dedicated, Mr.. Weir
lex suggested it be given a name, say
ing that because of tEe hills that have
divided the towns ON either side, the
alpine Way" would be proper. 1t
would be correct also because of the
scenery. Go 1000 miles, the speaker
said, and one will not find anywhere
within stretch of 20 miles such
magnificent scenery as il to be found
here. rs
