Good Roads And Advertising
Are Distinctive Characteristi
United States Says An
Roads in the United States and
the value placed on .advertising
are outstanding charcteriatics of
this» country impressed on
the
mlndp of Mr. and Mrs. H. O. El­
liott of Forbes, New South Wales,
Australia« who spent Thursday
night in this city.
Mr. and Mrs. Forbes are * en­
route to San Francisco f * > m
which port they will sail Wednes­
day, August 10, for their home,
after five months spent in touring
Great Britain, and the United
states.
" I want to say that the United
States has the best roads In the
whole world. Two of the many
wonderful things I learned In
this country are how to m a k e
these marvelous, roads and the
valde of advertising what you
have," MV. Elliott said.
Mr. Forbes has dxtenilve graz­
ing and agricultural interests In
Australia. He was particularly In­
terested in this phase of business
in this country.
’' ’
“ Australia needs some United
States advertising.” he s a l d.
“ Australia Is a beautiful country
and we have splendid tourist re­
sorts and scenic beauties hut we
don’t advertise them. I h a v e
mado a plea for more wealthy
sportsmen to come tw Australia
to spend their vacations for we
can offer them everything,” the
Australian declared.

Dear Sir: On our recent trip,
which took us through a number
of 'Clliaa wo kn p to u x ayes open

betterment. The first city that
impressed us with It’s beauty was
Ashland. The residence section
through which the highway pass­
ed was beautiful with a row of
maples in a fifteen-foot section
of lawn grass the full length of
-the blocks. I said to myself, that
would look good on the Main
t:treat of Red Bluff.

After passing the 'main busi­
ness section, which has moved to
front on the main highway in ev­
ery .city through which we passed,
wo came to the fantouB Ashland

else leaves Ashland, there wlll.-be
plenty of people who ,wljl stay
there to enjoy that ’ park, Of
course they have a wonderful
place for the park. It being built
along the hanks of a nice moun­
tain stream. But the acres of
lawn grass and flowers that are
kept trimmed, speak for the work
and care that Ashland is putting
into this famous attraction.
You feel like setting Ashland
as y.our future hoiye after an af­
ternoon spent in their park. Red
Bluff could afford to spend sev­
eral thousand dollars in develop­
ing a park and the hanks of the
Sacramento river are our beat op­
portunity, as wb saw when we
reached Grants Pass. The city

gfgll-meaning social workers.
I t Was baby No. 7 for the fam­
ily and the second born since
1921 when social« workers here
stirred up a national controversy
by trying to force permanent
birth control measures upon the
couple.
’ After Baby No. 5 was born so­
cial leaguers prevailed upon a
court to’issue an order for steril­
ising Mrs. Cossidenlt. T h e y
claimed the mother showed only
the mentality of a six-year-old,
that the family lived in poverty
and was unable to rear properly
the five children already horn to
• her.
The court order, however, was
withdrawn almost

after a stormy discussion arose
