Show THE Volume 5. t ' Salina Man Strong Pikes Peaks Highway 0 Is Signed From Rifle Dr. A. J. Lewis, one of Utahs real boosteis for more and better highways through the state, is quoted in the May number of the Modern Highway,, as follows: Mr. A. J. Lewis, Salina, Utah, of the Utah division of the Pikes Peak Ocean to Ocean Highway association, forwards an interesting map compiled by Mr. F. D. R. Gay of the Deseret News auto tour pathfinding department. Mr. Lewis says, By this map, is shown that the Pikes Peak Ocean to Ocean Highway' is the shortest oute from Colorado Springs to Los Angeles by 200 miles, over any other highway. It also shows that this route has only one day of desert from Colorado Springs to Los Angeles, as against almost a week on some of the southern routes. Mr. Gay and myself are going to mark the highway from Grand Junction to Salina over the P.P.O.O. with signs that read To Scenic Utah. The road through Salina Canyon is in fine shape now; in fact, it is the only pass in the mountains that a tourist can get through right now. We are looking for a big travel over the P.P.O.O. Highway this season and are getting ready to take care of the tourists. W. H. McMullen, an official of the n Pikes Peak Highbeen in the city has who and way, for several days, left for Richfield yesterday morning where he will complete the marking of the road between here and Richfield.

On the straight-awatourists cannot get off the road, one has been placed about every mile. Through the towns signs have been prominently placed on every four to six telephone or electric light poles. Before leaving Mr. McMullen stated that he sure gave the road a good marking all the way through from Rifle to Salina. The colors used in marking the Pikes Peak highway are red and white; about six inches of red and the same of white and the signs are about eight feet from the ground and plainly visible to the traveler.

Thrown From Wagon; Quite Seriously Injured Burgess, residing north of nursing severe injuries which he received Wednesday when the team of horses he was driving ian away and threw him from the wagon. Burgess was hurled against a pile of rocks and one of the wheels of the wagon passed over his face, inflicting severe gashes. He was given medical care and it required several stitches to close the ugly and painful wounds. Not only was Burgess injured, but some of the children with him were badly bruised when they fell from the wagon. Mr. Burgess was on the way to his beet field and had a number of children with him who were to assist in thinning beets. Just after they passed the John Gribble home, a boy, mounted on a riding horse, it is said, laced by, frightening the Burgess team. Immediately the animals staited to run. Several of the children were thrown from the wagon and one or two held fast until jolted from the vehicle. Burgess, losing his footing, was thrown from the wagon with the results tated above. When picked up he was unconscious and remained so for nearly two hours. Reports from his home are to the effect that the patient is getting along as well as could be expected under the circumstances. Claud town, is DEMONSTRATIONS ENJOYED. Mrs. Christensen, of the U. A. C.

At 10 oclock in the morning at the Salina hospital Mrs. Christensen demonstrated the water treatment for colds and other ailments. In the evening she gave a demonstration on the care of the skin and hair. This feature was especially for the girls. The lectures were thoroughly enjoyed and all were well attended. SHOVER FOR BRIDE.

JULY 4TH First State Bank Holds Annual Meeting n . i! The hard surface road worl which planned for Sevier count- y- this summer andfor the next two years through the taxpayers voting the bonds last month for $250,000, is of vital importance to the entire section and through the choice of the voters Salina and the county have shown a marked degree of progressiveness. With the paving of one miles throngh the city and this summer and with the program for the road work through the county, Sevier county can be justly proud and the result will be tha't thousands of tourists and travelers will visit here on the way west and to the scenic parts of Southern Utah. H. S. Kerr, engineer in charge of the surveys for the paving through Salina and south of Richfield, states that there is available of government money $70,000. The Sevier county commissioners have matched this on the prevailing basis and for the work to be done at Salina and Richfield there is available more than $90,000. The bonds voted just recently will make available slightly less than $1,000,000 with the appropriations coming from the government. This work will be done within the next three years and the hard surface road completed from the South Sanpete county line to the Elsinore sugar factory, it is to be hoped. None of the funds now available will be used only for the main trunk highway through the county. The survey of the main trunk line has been run from Salina to a point south of Aurora. From this point it has been decided by the State Road commission and Mr. Finch of the Bureau of Public Roads, to parallel the railroad to Richfield, and thence on to Elsinore. Mr. Kerr stated that the work on the Salina and Richfield projects, comprising three miles, would start about August 1st and that the work would be completed about November 1st. i$ Ocean-to-Ocea- leave shortly for the east for Visit City This Fall For Sevier County j most flourishing condition and places the organization among the very best in the state.
