Ca°yM Á Avenue Parade \\ By DON PETERSON I spent Monday in the new City of Detroit and if you want to make a beautiful drive don’t fail to drive jp there soon. The highway has been given a new coat of black-top in the past few weeks and the new section of the road from Detroit to Idanha is all complete, and is in use now, making a fast smooth road all the way to Idanha and soon will be open from Mehama all the way to Idanha and on into Bend in eastern Oregon when the new bridge over the Little North Fork is completed. We in the canyon area can be and are justly proud of this new link in the highway that makes movement easy from one city to another. In my short tenure here I remember the old road that wound its way along the bottom of the Santiam canyon from here to Idanha, in such a fashion that it was difficult to make the curves and leave room for meeting the in­ evitable traveler along the highway. * * » The coming of the Detroit dam to this area has indeed made great changes for all of us. Few would accept the old for the new if it were possible. The coming of the dam has brought progress and a new road with power developments that few had ever thought possible just a few years ago. One can drive past the new dam (it is now getting finishing touches) and say to himself, “this one we own”, let us hope that it will always be so. Detroit now has cheap power fur­ nished by Benton-Lincoln Co-op and new businesses have opened up in order to make better use of this new supply of power. Marion Kite has opened up a new electric contracting and supply store to service the com­ munity and is putting in lines of ap­ pliances of all kinds and sizes for every seed. • • • Businesses are all moved out of the old site and re-established on the new site with modern well constructed (Continued on Page 4) T he MILL CITY ENTERPRISE Serving: MILL CITY DETROIT ELKHORN G \TFS 11» \NH I LYONS MEHAMA ON THE SCENIC NORTH SANTIAM HIGHWAY — GATEM \Y TO THE HEART OF NATURE'S EMPIRE Vol. VIII—No. 46 Three Link Club Serves Annual Dinner Saturday Mll.l.
