KrebPonn, (Mtofuw, omvV (WEm,m m, m: 1ST VITAL TO "The publicity director of the Ke nttle Chnmber of Commerce calls the l iiclfic highway "the Main Htroet of the Pacific coast," and that Ix what It ially in, and It Ih to the Interest of Mfdford to Hve that husinesH in kowI I'll alonjf the street, " huIU Harry "Wells, editor of tho Pacific L'oiiHt Travel, today at the Khvanis club luncheon. "Three routes of travMl north nnd Houth are developing." ald Mr.- Wells. "The chief one. for the present at least, 1h the Pacific high way.' To the west a new route is he hitf opened. Before lonj? the Itoone Vflt highway will be in good condi tion for travel, and then it In expect ed that the majority of machines that ko up the redwood highway from San Krancisco will continue up the coast and not comuL.over to the Rogue 1 elver valley at aftr For the present they, will reach the Pacific highway in the I'mpqua valley, hut eveniuaily they will go still further up the coast. On the east the road from the Colum bia river by way of Ilend and Klam ath Kalis Is developing and promises to take the bulk of the southern travel from Canada nnd eastern Washington and Oregon. The wonderful Colum- bla fiiver highway will be an Import ::nt factor in preventing this. "The thing to do right now Is to bo establish the- Pacific highway in the minds of the people as the great, standard and moat desirable route north nnd south on the. Pacific coast, that travel can not be diverted from it. This can only he done by the right sort of publicity, lty the right ' ' I not only mean very high cinss and artist ieally attractive, hut pub licity of the whole route and not tnorely of individual attractions here and there. "One who has riot been accustomed to view the matter In this way n-ear-ely realizes thai the Pacific highway is the longest, the best and the most comfortable to travel in Jhc world, nnd Is bordered all along Us 1800 miles with beauties and marvels of nature such as no other tourist au tomobile routs in the world posses ses. TJie work which the pacific Highway Association has undertaken Is to sell to tourists and vacationists the whole highway, a complete trip, such ns they cannot find uny where to equal. We are tying up the pulling power of Lassen. Shasin, Crater Lake, Oregon Caves, Hood, Columbia river, llalnier, Puget Sound, linker and Vancouver Island Into a single attrac tion and selling them all in one bunch. Tliut has never been dune before nnd It is the new theme in advertising which Is going to bring through Aled fiul along the Pacific highway thou Mt?uls of tourists who could never be won by the advertising of individual aciracuons ns nas ueen uone in me past. We are selling them a wonder ful trip, not some particular thing to see. "We expect in thin way to so popu larize the route that no tourist will crosi the continent without including in his Itinerary a trip over the Pacific highway. When this shnll have been done tho towns along the highway need not fear the competition and loss of trade from other highways, but un less tills Is done they will feel It keenly. "I have been all nionjr the highwny clear to Victoria, B. and have spoken on this subject to many Cham bers of Commerce and service clubs, nnd I find a keen appreciation of this Idea of a mutual advertising campaign for the entire route, with the cost dis tributed all nlong tho way in small rmounts, which total enough to make a real campaign. Adequate nnd ef fective advertising cannot be done on the local plan. No community can ii ff 41 rd It and no small group of com munities enn afford It. liut by each doing Its small share- a wonderful campnif&n can be -carried on." Mr. Wells said that In southern California alono 400,000 people en tered the state by automobile this year, only a comparative few of whom . enme north at nil nnd still fewer ns far north ns Med ford. Thousands of them could be brought up here If made to realize such a wonderful trip ns the whole of If is. A fine art book of the entire route is being prepared, which will be distributed by the hun dreds of thousands In nil tourist centers, the greatest of which Is Iaw Angeles, where 15 different Informa tion bureaus are at xvojrk nnd where tho association has nn - information bureau of Its own in the Chnmber of Commerce. Other offices will . he maintained In Pan Francisco, the cen tral place, and Seattle. Work like this on thot portion of the Pacific high wny between San Francisco nnd I.os .Angeles increased travel 70 per cent this year, he said, nnd now like work 14 being done nil nlong the highway. IT aid that it was possible In this way before long for the Pacific high way to be known everywhere ns the one most desirable motor tour of the whole world. Mr. Wells Is accompa nied by H. F. Dorgnloh , nnd A. T.. ''nig of the Pacific Highway association. 40 MEN WORKING ON WATER SYSTEM Forty men. wilh the prospect ot he Ing employed all winter, are at work near Butte creek repairing the city writer pipe lino.

Chicago, I think It can be success fully maintained, has a higher type of Christian life, consecration, ser vice, than any other city in tho Chris tian world. Among Christian people tho standard Is higher, the moral Im perative more exacting and especial ly this, the line of demarcation more distinct between tho church unci-the world than in nny other of the great cities of the continent. Which, after nil, is not to he wondered at. Virtue nnd vice usually reach their corona tion amid the same sourroundlngs.

We want ofhera to believe wo are. , But a large per cent of us also let the others voice our humble thanks and show our Kratltude. There is a hURh differ ence between lieing (truteful and sim ply belnif pleased with our prosper ity. Oratitude that is real finds a way of expressing lteself. There are only two modes of expression, conduct and words. Year after year we are called upon by the chief executive of the nation to render thanksKivinR to God for all his bounties.

Te majority of us indulge in the feasting nnd depend upon tho thanks giving of those more gratful than our selves to express that gratitude and so licit sufficient favors of a merciful providence to prosperous een more. Let us be more mindful of this, a solemn duty nnd obligation. Not be cnuse of yie traditional significance which hns set the day apart In our national life, but because we owe it to ourselves and to our Clod to show our gratitude.
