Mothers and teachers from various parts of the county see need for greater librai'y facilities. They are interested in the mental welfare and development of children of the county. Certainly noth ing (J more important. Certainly the interest of mothers and teachers in thus seeking to better future citizenship deserves encouragement. The cost to, the county would not be great and&he six per cent limitation would, amply allow for so small an increase and permit other projects as well. The couit. will not 'make a mistake by squeezing the county li braij into the budget for next year. S '", . , .. " -TV .,!-'. he '(development of Wallowa county is as niuch a jnat- it coifcern to the people of this section as the develop- of Union. . Ilailroad building contributes to develop- but not always in the direction anticipated. Consider-' jUie pitiposcd routes of a cut-off for the Union Kacific' tho Lewiston territory, .the Grande Ronde Ilivor route would appeal, we believe, more strongly to Wallowa county citiriis than tho road down the Snake river. In the first. pla'c,,' the Siiitke' River "road might, at' the particular ijointl oppttsite Wallowa county's border, go down the Idaho sidei i for Wit! sake of construction expediency, which Avouldnot be of great benefit to Oregon. Without a direct connection with aii-rctciision of the Joseph branch-which is not likely the 1 direct benefit to Wallowa county would bo limited to a small . anion lit of territory along the river, territory that would be jdraificd of . its products into Idaho and Washington. The Grafede Rondo River route, on the other hand if a shorter railiine into the Lewiston country is an actual public ncccs-sityj-would provide the same saving of distance, would be ptissjblc with many millions saved in construction, would j $1,119 box. opcrt a vast territory rich in timber that would foed the 'mills of Wallowa county, and would give a more direct and generally beneficial outlet to the north. The advantage to Wallowa county of the latter, route seems much the greater. ' y' TO I! It 1ST MARK KT I N G , A Canadian newspaper rcmai'ks,. with1 considerable satis- i faction, that the third-largest industry in that country. is the "toijiist industry," and its- gross receipts are second only in ' '.' r '.....:...., 1 -if . , -. miiujiiu ui ino.st! 11 out agrictiiiui ai aim 101 esi promicis. 111 1928 foreign automobile tourists nearly all Americans spcit limit1 than $2(10,000,(100 there, and the amount is much gremer this year. o that's what our people are when they divc across the border raw material for an "industry." Hut it's just the same if they drive around in their own country. The biggest tourist industry in the world is right here at home. And here, as in Canada, sometimes the home people fail to get their riglvlful share of the profits. ' 1 "?The large .cities," says the Canadian paper, "are alive to tbe importance of the industry, and tradesmen are on the hleij to secure as great a portion us possible of the money whifjh the .visitors are determined upon spending. Some of the wnmller communities which are suffering a loss of gen einl'proKperity from the competition of other centers might well' take into consideration the question of obtaining a larger sharic of tourist trade by catering especially to the needs of visitni-Si .Many a small town or village which can never hope to become a big commercial center has scenic and other fea luroK which, if properly made known, would make a strong app&tl to the visitor." ; Qur small towns for a while were threatened with ruin froiji'losing their accustomed business to the big cities, after lhe automobile made il easy for local patrons to go and buy at 11 dilance. lint the same travel facilities that took customers away may also bring customers from afar, in greater nuin-liei-s; Right here may be revealed a trade secret which many small towns do not seem to know. It isn't plastering a town all tiver with ugly posters n.nd sticking a glaring, smelly gas' station on every coiner that attracts tourists ami gathers in theij' money. It's making the town pleasant to look upon, so that the casual visitor wants to stop there. The people froi the country may wish to travel to the city, but it must be ramembercd that city people hit for the country and there are u'cautages both ways.
