"What Roseburg needsubovo all !
else, explained J. V. Casey, real es
tate operator of Roseburg. who is reg
istered at the Hotel Oregon, 'is a
road to Diamond lake' and Crater '
lake. The county Is doing some work
on a road In that direction and tho
forest service is also assisting, but
there is still a long gap to be con
structed. Diamond lake Is a recrea
tion park, a regular playground, and I
venture to say that right now there
are mWo than 1000 people camped
around there. It is an Ideal spot, with
plenty of fishing, good camping and
a delightful beach, so that visitors
can enjoy bathing. Crater lake, of
course is wonderful, but people do not
og there to camp as they do at Dia
mond lake. If wo can get a road
through so It-will beeasy of access to
motor" tourists, Roseburg will be
greatly benefitted and It will also be I
a short and direct route." Oregon
