Spoiling the Scenery - The automobile touring: season of 193Q.is just aboutWer; and if you asked the average tourist for his chief impression of the scenery along his vacation drive the cnances are inat he would mention the great national eczema of advertising signs along the highways. Looking back oyer a summer spent largely oh the highways, high-ways, one recalls these signboards in a dizzyr everrraultiDb!- ing panorama. They make theapproacnes to our cities t!j s x 1 ',.,."" nn ..v- Af-nnJof nimtrv maeous anu ixiey iiiai tmu cnjvjriiciit u. nuiti. .vv roads : thev intrude uton pleasant vistas of inland lakes, they dot the white-fringed seashore and they plant them- selves at tne leet 01 loity, snow-xippea mountains anu long-suffering American continues to-endure them without a nrotest. ,' .'- c" I -; A recent issue of the Roadside Bulletin, a little magazine published by ,the American Nature Association, contains a series of pictures of roadside, advertising signs, and the series i3 enough to make the reader doubt the collective sanity san-ity of the American public. - , .. With a magnificent continent criss-crossed by excellent roads, and with the entire population on wheels ready to go out and enioy these roads, we permit commercial interests to mar the" scenery, desecrate the open1 country and inflict monotonous ugliness on us from one seacoast to the other. A number of states have tried to remedy matters by law; but the law, io-this case, is rather ineffective. You can prohibit the erection of signs on the highway itself, and you can keep them from being placed in the vicinity of railroad crossings but that is about all. You cannot keep a needy farmer from renting a vacant lot to some over-zealous advertiser. ad-vertiser. You cannot keep a man from smearing an ugly sign across the side of his barn. You cannot keep the owner of some dilapidated eye-sore of an abandoned grain elevator or run-down factory from plastering iCwith screaming pos- ters. ' , ' '. . ' . o. '. Why do we put up with it, anyway? Is there something some-thing radically wrong with our aesthetic sense, that we permit per-mit these signboards to litter our countryside in such profusion pro-fusion ? No country on earth offers its motorists r such a lovely variety of tours to choose from; and no country permits per-mits its tours to be spoiled as we permit thdo1Ibard, the hot-dog hot-dog stand and the filling station to spoil ours. , The remedy, of course,, lies not in law but in an aroused public opinion. The problem reajly could be disposed of quite easily. If Americans generally 'would vow not to buy of .ad? rertisers who deface the landscape with billboards, the nui-lance nui-lance would die overnight. At any rate, it might be worth a in. You can start it ior yourseix. Natureland There are about 250 pedesof, the. dragon flies, sometimes known as "darning needles" and "snake feeders. all of which live 'in Jtfdrth America.
