Miss Lenore Shulte of The Journal Travel bureau states: ' ; ' Mia Shalt recently completed m tour . f that dlatrlct and is now eatbasiaatic over 1U possibilities as a playground. It 4a accessible by motor car, she says, and affords a delightful combination of .mountains and seashore. - In making- the trip she went to New port from CorvalUs and thence sooth by motor stage. At all points she found "the roads to be Uv excellent condition, - tbouga the rains had not started' at that time. ','.--;.;? " ' -it is really the most delightful ooun try X hare ever seen, Miss Shnlte said. " There is a rreat diversity of activi ties afforded1 the vacationist, such as lulling, . aaatingV swimming-..

Am - eoon as the Roosevelt highway Is eom .C'i pie ted It goes through this; strip--this 1 ' Portion of . the Oregon coast will : be h noted throughout the nation as the 'ideal summer playground.' . ' t In going soath ; from' Newport the majority of the motorist use the sand , beach for tha road. It is necessary to a know the time of the tides, as other ? wise progress in the - dry sand would r be diffteuia There are roads-though . on which a! machine can .travel. -. "On the trip I visited ;Waldpot and Taehats," Miss Shulte went on. ."Both i places are very beautlfut and I predict ? that within a few years they will be t i famed -as resort towns. , There are " " innumerable small ,, streams emptying Into the ocean an . ' alonr this strip. Each seems to be full -.of fish for while there I caught several - messes of mountain trout. 1 y "Hunting, too. Is good for I" saw many -deer tracks. The country is con- duclve So such vsports; and when more -iidely inown wHl be the mecca of all - epoctemtn of the state.' Of course when J it is on the main highway the greater ; part of this wildness will be destroyed The coast will retain Us beauty though - for nothing could destroy that unless it be a devastating; earthquake or some volcanic " outburst, eltner or which 4s. very Improbable..

USE OF TRUCK TO BE TflLO BY RIM KBYDEALERS Automobile Dealers' Association , of Portland Now Shoolirtg! Educational Picture.; t " .How the motor truck, acts as an in dependent transportation unit or short hauls ', In Oregon Js to be graphically shown by a motion picture film, Ralph J. Staehli, secretary of the Automobile Dealers' Association of' Portland, -Inc., said last week. , The film is new being made under the auspices of the dealers' associa tion, Staehli said,H. and will ibe ready for exhibition, within two lor three weeks. When - completed it will be shown, before the various chambers -of commerce and other civic organisations Interested In traffic and trans porta tion. The film: Is being "shot" v by Jess GUL. "Our aim m this Is to show -that truck, transportation for short hauls is especially - adapted to conditions in Oregon." Staehli said. "The pictures will show the various steps In truck work and will demonstrate that by; more extensive use. of trucks that traf fic will o$ be unnecessarily congested or highways In any vray endangerea. 'The feature of the picture will -be the Interchange of produce between towns andi different sections of the country Benefits derived from such transportataon will be shown. Staehli Is of the opinion that truck transportation la Oregon is not a sec ondary unit but both-Independent and Important to the development of the "It fills a need that ts not filled In any other way," he said. -"It is essen tial to the small, farmer and manu facturer to get his produce to the mar ket in the shortest possible time and at the least expense. ' This can be done" by trucking on the highways of the state. v "The purpose of the railroad In this state la primarily - to make long- bauls. In this the track cannot compete but as a unit fcr short hauls it is Ideal, ea- pedally -for districts having no rail communication, -- However,. ; on short hauls, the truck can compete with ran tinea and handle certain produce more satisfactorily This has been proven. "Of course, in some place the truck Is beneficial as a, feeder to a. rail line. In this.- state ; such accommodation - is rather rare. - - - "la making the picture the association-will rp able to show the various civlo rdubs and others the-valuet'"f truck transportation far better than by any amount of talking. The handlltig of produce and Its quick dispatch to the market. t4respecttve of schedules. can be shown In a way that wUl be convincing. HiThat ; ts something that heretofore has not been- done and as a result those most needing trucks have been unable ji to visualise i th benefits derived."-' " , Cassidy Annourfces Arrival bi a Brand : New Ndn-Skidi Tire , The new improved India tire, made by the India Tire s Rubber company of Akron, has arrived jirt rtiana s cording to an announcement made last week by George K.

Sheer t carelessness and lack-of con alteration, tor other drivers Is the chief cause of traf fid problems and accidents Frank S. Grant, city attorney, avers. Grant believes that by every motorist practicing the Golden Rule that the major traffic problems would be solved. Too many machines, he said, are oper ated by people who do not " stop - to thurk of the dangers they court. . One , of the most dangerous prac tices -I have observed recently i is the operation after dark without lights,' he said, "One evening X saw more than 20 automobiles tearing along at a good clip without a bit of Ught. It was a -dark night, too aad it was all I could do to see them as they passed. "Now that daylight fades early and the rain Is conducive to - a greater darknesa.than la. the summer time it would be well for every motorist to be sure that bis lights are working well. Several machines ; that X : stopped . did not know the lights were not on. Some said they could not be turned on. 'This is typical of some of the fools that ret behind a wheel of a nigh. powered vehicle and endanger : the lives of everyone on the streets and highways. Jail sentences are, too good for them bub unfortunately- our- laws are based on certain ; amount of civilisation, .which means considers tion for the .other fellow. dangeroas to pedestrians, v-ho ct-r-not bei 'seen until Vun Jaown, but to 'the pperator of the car himself..
