Show APPRECIATING UTAH SHOULD BE SLOGAN IF UTAHJITIZEUS As the tourist season opens, large , numbers of out of state cars are seen ( on our county highways. It is noticeable that in interviewing these people they all express great surprise at the wonderful scenery, splendid roads and healthy development develop-ment of Utah. Many easterners and numerous Cal-- Cal-- tfornians had the opinion that Utah had no scenery and that its Citizens were of th unprogressive type. The small opportunity they have of exploring the state as they pass thru it entirely upsets this vision. The wonders of our highways, leading through scenery which they didn't know existed in America, the beautiful beauti-ful fields of the many verdant valleys and the modern cities growing up the state actually bewilder them. If we are able to bewilder "native sons" of California, then why should we go elsewhere to get our thrills. Seeing Utah, is not a trick phrase, coined to stimulate interest in your own state. It is meant to be educa- J, tional. We as the people of Utah are . , not doing justice to ourselves if we do not see our own state and know . it, each and every section. Distant fields always took the greenest, but you can take the word of these Californians and easterners that no scenery is finer or grander than what we have in Utah. Practically every tourist after visiting visit-ing a short time in the state, expresses ex-presses the desire to make another trip. On that trip, they declare they are going to spend then- vacation J here, seeing the whole of this great J state. " t Let the people of Utah sell the 3 ' state to themselves this summer, that they may better sell it to the - world. See Utah first and then you L; will not need to see another. |
