, WILL CONNECT
HELENA, Mont., July 30 (by Asso
dated Press).—Eleven Western state:
will be represented at a meeting ii
Yellowstone park August 10 and 11
called for the purpose of advancing th<
United States interior department’s
project of joining together the na
tional parks with a motor highway.
Good roads experts, enthusiasts am
commercial club presidents are com
ing from the principal cities of th<
West to meet with the national pari
service officials. The motor highway
the first link of which already has beei
opened between Yellowstone and Gla
cier parks, is designed by Secretary
of the Interior Franklin K. Lane as
a means for keeping American vaca
tion dollars at home instead of allow
ff ing them to go abroad.
In speaking recently of the need foi
the convention. Senator T. J. Walsl
of Montana said:
“Governments of Europe are pre
paring for their greatest tourist years
as soon as passports are again freely
issued. Europe has been vastly ad
vertised by the war. Before the w at
$250,000,000 was spent annually by
Americans in foreign lands. Unless
the government of the United States
does something to keep her people
at home the national parks and resoits
of the West may be deserted in the
years just ahead.
-i • i i i_ ... * i
ACCUIUIIi&lj tuc; nuciivi ~
xnent has been aroused to the point of
.meeting Europe’s tourist propaganda.
One of the expedients is an automo
bile highway connecting the national
parks and monuments. This will help
keep the tide of tourists, which now
is turned westward, coming our way.
The co-operation of the Western
states liberally extended to the gov
ernment at this time will repay them
a thousand times.”
To lead the tourist cars from park
to park, big motor busses are to be
operated over the highway selected
by the government. Already Yellow
stone and Glacier park busses main
tain a regular schedule between these
two great parks, making the two-day
trip semi-weekly. The busses follow
the new Geysers-to-GIacier trail,
which passes through Gardiner, Liv
ingston, Bozeman, Boulder, Townsend,
Helena, Augusta, Gilman, Choteau,
DuPuyer and Browning, and gives
the tourist a scenic tour straight
across Montana over the best roads
in the state.
Before the conference at Yellow
stone. August 10 and 11, scout cars
from Helena and Denver will make
tours between Yellowstone and Rocky
Mountain park with national park
service officials.
As fast as the government can act
and the transportation system be de
veloped, park busses will be operated
over the park-to-park road to tie to
gether Mount Rainier National park,
Crater Lake, Sequoia, Yosemite, the
Grand Canyon, and, in fact, all the
parks, monuments and resorts of in
terest to tourists in a Western tour.
It is to develop this highway sys
tem that the conference has been
called. The states to be represented
are California, Colorado. Montana,
Utah, Oregon, Arizona, Washington,
Wyoming, North and South Dakota,
Idaho and Nevada.

TEACHERS SPENDING
THEIR VACATION ON
BRINK OF VOLCANO
j HILO, Island of Hawaii, July 1 (by
\ mail).—Marooned on a tropical isle,
9 2,000 miles or more from home, nnd
camping on the brink of the crater of
Kilauea, one of the world’s greatest
active volcanoes, 200 girls, most of
them pretty and all of them charm
1 ing, are spending a vacation of two
’ months in a manless Eden.
This is not a scenario; it’s a de
scription of Hawaii’s summer camp
for homeless and somesick school
teachers.
^ A few weeks ago some three hun
dred school teachers of Hawaii heard
the sad news that they could not get
L back to the States for their summer
’ vacation, the army transports being
1 booked full with army officers and
soldiers and the passenger lines be
ing sold out for months ahead, war
1 service having taken many of the
Pacific’s finest steamships to the At
lantic.
When the teachers’ predicament be
came known, L. A. Thurston, Honolulu
newspaper publifher, suggested the
idea of a summer camp for teachers
at Kilauea, where the great elevation
and cool climate would give the young
women a pleasant change from the
rather depressing summer heat of the
Hawaiian lowlands. Co-operation of
the department of public education,
the Y. W. C. A. and the army was
enlisted, the military camp at the
volcano being obtained for the ac
commodation of the teachers and such
Y. M. C. A. members as cared to at
tend.
The public schools closed June 27
and the summer camp opened June
29. to close about September 1. A sum
mer normal school will be conducted
in connection with the camp, but at
tendance is not obligatory. The young
women are being provided with meals
at actual cost.
Special dinner served from 11:30
o'clock every day at the City Bakery.
