EXPECT MORE TO SEE
DAM SITE THIS YEAR

A belief is held at the dam site
that 1910 will be the biggest tourist
year in the history of Grand Coulec
dam. Indications are that 100000
may not be far from the years total.
Vista house Lecturers John Holland
and Dave Kaye pointed several rea-
sons why they anticipate larger in
flux. Among them is that Grand
Coulee is becoming better known
throughout the United States and
that each visitor is salesman who
sends others.
There is possibility that an cleo
trio eye or some other counting device
may be erected to accurately count
visitors this year. Heretofore tourist
figures have been estimated.
The wars in Europe and China wiz
keep nearly all visitors in the home
land. they said. Fairs in both New
York and San Francisco will cause
many to make round the country teurs.
The bureau plans to cir condition
the west shore model room, in which
the progressive miniature is exhibited
