The new Dunes Highway makes readily accessible tha Dunes; it eliminates nine railroad crossings and reduces the mile-age seven miles between Gary and Michigan City as compared with the shortest route heretofore available. It provides a rldo of twenty-five ml-M through romantic tluneland, liaaslng many places of historic record and localities of present day interest. Through an ever changing panorama of Irresistible charm it passes through a region that is a erltable symphony of water, sand flowers and foliage. The Dunes Highway penetrates through territory which i3 almost the same as it was a century ago. It's a trip aJong side of tha Dunes Wonderland. The variegated colors of the many different wild flowers th sot blue of the water, the golden yellow of the sun-kissed Dunes, the rich groen foliage of the woods, all combine in making colorful effects of unsurpassed charm and beauty.

its striking cluster of magnificent white pines, many over a hundred feet high and over two fo:t thick. It is a beautiful spot. Proceeding westward, at Trrmont, known years ago as --.w City West." tho Dunes Highwayreaches al-out the confer of th: Dunes section. Tremont was the old villiage of the Mound Builders. About a block south of the highway

Thirteen miles of the roadway will ! n' be seen their cemetory. conbe completed by December 1st tnis j tainlng over a hundred mounds, year. The other six miles, between (extending from Fort Creek to PortBaileytown and Gary, will bo ready j Chester. In about here was the anearty next season. The Dunes : cInt Indian villiage and man oi Jii-rhwav Is twentv feet wida with i arrow chips, with soma arrows, are

Historically, beginning at Mlchlfan City, the Krueger Memorial park is the location in which was i-jught the revolutionary battle of Oeceniber 5th, 1780, when a small forci? of Americans, about eighteen in number, were defeated by a force r;f British and Indians. In Krueger ?!emorlal park is also located the Kather Marquette Spring where l ather Marquette encamped on his v ny from the east to Chicago. Th3 .Spring is still flowing and the watt-:-Is very cool and relreshingFather Marquette used the route of the present Dunes Highway on his trip toward Chicago. on the outskirts of Michigan City the Dunes Highway passes the Indiana itate Prison, an institution notud throughout the world as a model one of Its kind and housing approximately 1500 inmates. Leaving tbj prison and heading west, to the left of the roadway ran be seen tha remains of the old roadbed of tha Buffalo and Mississippi railroad. This road was one of the many dreams of the pionc-rs connecting up the east with tuo Mississippi valley. Some work was done on It in 1SS0 tut it ha3 long since been abandoned. P.efore reaching Purnassvilla n splendid view is given of the Dunes, showing the Polk S'.tde, a high plateau of sand, through which th 2 old Chicago. Detroit stage road ramo from the lake fhre and then

still tc be found. Near Tremont was also the site of the big Creon Tavern, or City West Tavern, that from IS 10 to 1S75 was the pioneer headquarters of this section. Toward the lake from Tremont may b-s seen the great sand peaks that give the name Tremont to thi.? wonderful region. They arc Mts. Vom, Green and Holdcn.. Directly east of Jit.

with its picturesque, cozy beach bouse. The Prairie club has consistently brought to the attention of the public the wonders of the Dunes and each year brings thousands of pilgrims to admiro and enJoy the beauties of this section. A couple miles beyond Tremont the Dunes Highway crosses the Waverly Beach road. W'averly Beach is about one half mile distant. Onn of the finest bathing beaches In the great Dunes section. There, on Port Ridg, on the south bluff overlooking Port Creek, a block east of AVa verly Beafh. was located Petit Fort little fort of

the French, erected about 1700 to protect tho fur trad of the Calumet region from New Iroquois Indians who thought nothing of a foray from New York to the Chicago Dunes region. It is h ;re, at Waverly Reach, that City West was started In 1SC7 to 1S37 to surpass Chicago. Milwaukee and Detroit and beco"n the metropoplis of the Great Iakes. Daniel Webster visited City West in ls37 and supported its request for a government harbor. Tho request of Michigan City was backed by Henry Clay and Michigan City was successful In getting a fund from the government to t;t3.rt it3 harbor development. A little west from the Waverly Road, about two miles If Mineral Spring.--. Here can be seen the famous Cowles Tamarack Swamp named after Dr. Cowles, tho great botanist, of the Vniversity of Chicago. This is on the south side of tha Dunes, about two blocks west of the Mineral Spring road, an.-l Is th most beautiful floral treasure bouse, with

its

id leautiful tree.--

vines and flowers, to bo found in the entire Dune-Chicago region. Near Oak Hill, on the south side of tho Dunes Highway, is tho Hailly Mausulcum, containing the. bod!-3 of the great fur trader, Joseph Pail 1 v. who formerly owned CC'O acres in this vicinity ad who a; ore of the greatest fur traders in Ainerin. About a mile southeast of Oa 1L11 Ik tho old Bailly Homestead, the oldest home in Northern Indiana, having been built in 1822 by Joseph B't'.lly. It Is a famous place and is now :i religious homy presided over

by lie v. P-berly. I The Dunes north of Oak Hill and Baiieyto-.vn are very Interesting-, con- I ttitufin a wonderful hill and lake I

region.

tho allied Industries are making Gary one of the great cities of the middle west. The new highway connects at Gary at I'ifth avenue, with the former Chicago-Gary route, which has no-sheen taken in as par! of th--- Dune3 Highway. T'n Dunes Highway is one of the bo.--t nnads in the tato of Indiana and forms part of the roadway extending clear around Lake Michigan, which roadway It is hoped will In the i;ext cnup'e years be complete so that a circuit of Lake Michigan may Jh mado entirely on paved roads, a distance of almost 7f'0 miles. In Illinois and Wisconsin the road is known a? Pheridan Bead. In Indiana as the Dunes Highway and at the Indiana' State Line it connects with Michigan State Road Xo. 1. With the wonders of the dunes, the greatness of the Michigan fruit belt and the Interest of th" Wisconsin section the Dunes Highway forms the connecting link which will become increasingly ropular as th Public realises the possibilities for a trip across th same between Illinois, Indiana and Michigan.
