Show H OFK SCENERY AN ASSET. H THE people of the world are just H t.trifiriirir to realize to a small ex- H tent the importance and grandeur of B the scer.lc attractions of this part of H Utah. Hundred of thounand.i of tour- H lt have traveled half way around the B world to view the wonder of the Alps HBH In Switzerland, and yet artists who H h&v "Pent almost a life time in look- BSJ Ins: for the heautie of nature, ny BSE that the Alps are not to be compared BBBJ with the benutie and wondem of Lit- B tie Zion Canyon, the Royal Gorjre of j the Orand Canyon an viewed from h Rriht Ane-el piint, the Rrenks of the J Cedar Canyon and many other won- Bl derful ii bin to be found in this ec- BBBb tion of the country. BBBJ rr. Fisher in nddreRlnsr a larp-e BB audience in the Utah Hotel last week BBB painted a glowing word picture of the BBH exquisite scenery of this locality, ut BBJ the same time displaying a large num- BB ber of lantern slide which he hnd H prepared depicting name. He Mid BBBJ that the Alp of Switzerland com- BB pared to the mlghtv walls of Littl Zior. BBJ were M a post card compared with a BBJ work of a great master on canvass. H Mr. Fisher will deliver this lecture BBJI In nearly every part of the United BBm State, and the advertising value to BBl this section can scarcely be estimated. BBH This week a party of boosters, with BBJ Industrhl Agent White and Assistant BBj General Passeneer A cent Warner of BBJ the Salt Fake Route, and including Mr BBfl Wylie of the great Wylle Way, and BBh others bent on establishing a tourist BH route to Little Zion from Lund, made BBBJ the trip to the canyon over roads far BBH from good, and weather much too BBl cold for pleasure, In order to see and BBJB plan for the opening of this wonder- BBfl land to the tourists of the world. BBBm The Salt Lnke Route has promised BH to spend $50,000 in advertising Little BBBJ Zion and Hurricane Canyon abroad. BBB With such potent factors as these BBl behind the undertaking, can there be BB any doubt as to its merit and the de- BBBm velopment of a great tourist business BBBl through this section. BBbV In this connection it is only fair to H say that Cedar City occupies one of BBJ the most important positions on the B&Bfl route to these scenic attractions. Wr EBB are, so to speak, the gateway to these BBBl beauties of nature, whether the tour- EBfl ist comes by way of Lund by rail or H down through the state from Salt BBJ Lake by auto. We are within a con- BeBB venient drive of the attractions, and BBBa this in destined to become a favoritt BBBb point for resting and recuporating, if BBb the people do their part to make the BBBb conditions here pleasant and attract- BbBJ BBBl Few of us realize the magnitude or BBJ Importance of this new industry, and BBb the rapidity with which it is bearing BBB down uppn us. We have a duty to Bfl perform in this connection, not only BBfl in placing our city and roads in order, BBj ''"' a'' " '" Kitting in a position to BBJ do our part towards advertising our BBJ attractions to the outside world. |
