Lithia Park Offers Haven
To Weary Auto Travelers
A V/ew of f he Entrante to UeautiSnl Uttiin Park
Beautiful Lithia park, with its rolling green lawns,
it« natural shrubbery; its mountain stream rushing down
from the slope of ML Ashland, is known in every corner
of. the nation as being one of the moat beautiful muni-
cijval parks to be found anywhere.
And the municipal auto camp, which is a part of the
city park, is one of the city’s strongest drawing cards
both in attracting auto tourists and keeping them here
for several days after they arrive and find a place to
linger amid snch ideal' surroundings.
> * Members of the present park board, nnder the lead­
ership of Chairman Frank Jordan, are extremely jealous
of Ashland’s reputation as a host to visitors and auto
tourists, and for that reason they are continually de
vising methods whereby improvements to the park and
auto camp might be undertaken.
