NEXT YEAR'S . Historical-minded Califoinians are planning to traverse I once more the old Overland Trail from Indcpendenee,vMo to Tuttcr's Fort in California by ox-drawn wagons. The train Is to sot out next April and will arrive at its destination five' months later. Dressed like early pioneers and supposedly equipped like thorn, they will jog along, setting up markers' pt historic points on tho route and going through the mo tions of re-living the experiences of the courageous men and women who crossed the continent in wagon tmins lo selLle the great western country. ' ' I 1 ' It will bo harder to re-live those pioneering days than! these modern trail-followers imagine. History may repeat1 itself, but one may reasonably question whether 192!) can re peal 1810 in this matter. Those ox-carts lire going to trav erse some pretty good pavements, some of the way. There will be no trackless wilderness to penetrate. lMcasanl farm land with homes and sciioois and lives will greet the eye here once were treeless prairies. There will be bridges to cro"s v-l.pi n once dangerous streams had to be fouled. '' It will be difficult for next spring's caravan lo gel away from quick communication, from doctors, from stores, from people. We have a hunch they will carry pocket flashlights aild many other conveniences and comforts uii(leamed of by their predecessors. And when they reach their destination it will be an established community, not the site for one. - Nevertheless, it is good to have the courage of those first .travelers recalled. They deserve all the historical markers that can be set out along their routes. And the caravan will !e true to history in one important resiect, at least 'rold Bcekers and Califoinians are still synonymous.
