There Is no servant in the

But those young parents know
that what they give their boys

toilets, writing rooms and lounging
rooms.
"A moderate charge is made for
the use of the facilities. The insti-
tuition is self-supporting. 1t also
serves the purpose of a community
center.
'"Business interests along the cen
tral route which passes through Mi
ami and Globe could learn much to
their profit from study of Flag
staff's campaign to develop and hold
the tourist business.
Connecting Up With COcOninO
ut is 85 miles by the present for
est and county roads from Pine in
northern Gila county to Flagstaff,
county seat and metropolis of Coco
nino county. Seventy miles are i'm
proved roads. Gila county has inn
proved the road to her northern
boundary, several miles north of Pine.
Coconino county has done consider
able work south from Flagstaff. For
the past three years the forest SER
vice has had crews at work on the
intervening miles. Fifteen miles of
the road lying Immediately north of
the Gila county line remain unimprov-
ed.
"The forest service highway con-
struction program in this state pro-
vides for construction to begin on
this fifteen miles of unimproved road
next spring. The work will present
little heavy construction, and should
be we'll along toward completion by
the fall of 1927.
within two years a good direct
north and south road should be avail
able all the way from the Miami
Globe district to Flagstaff, where it
will connect with the main highway
across northern Arizona. Thus will
another connecting link between the
Central route and the Old Trails
highway be established.
"This direct connection with the
northern part of Arizona has long
been desired by Gila county folks.
Heretofore visitors from this section
of the state to the Grand Canyon
and other scenic points in Coconino
county have had to traverse circuit
Gus route over other highways, or
brave the dangers and discomforts of
the largely unimproyed direct road
through the forest.
"The completion of the north and
south connecting roads is one of the
most important phases of highway
development presenting itself to Ari-
zona today. There is crying need
for more and better roads of this
type.
'The time has arrived when one
of the chief considerations in high
way building in this state should be
the internal development of Arizona
through north and south roads"

cities of northern Arizona along the
Old Trails route may be traced di-
rectly to tourist traffic. The busi-
ness men of those communities recog-
nize its present value and future po-
tentialities and are going after it.
They are highly organized for that
purpose. Tourist business is their
most profitable channel of trade. 1t
saved the financial lives Of many
northern Arizona business houses
during the drouth period and conse-
quent slump in the livestock indus
try. That experience opened the
eyes of the commercial interests of
the north to the profits to be garn-
cred through cultivation of the tour
ist. 1t is probably true that tourists
distribute more ready money in Flag
staff than all other classes of trade
combined.
Flagstaff has the finest municipal
camping grounds in Arizona. They
are beautifully situated in fine pine
