PIKE'S PEAK HIGHWAY BOOSTERS WILL MEET The following communication from the Hoosier State Automobile Association of Indlunapolls has been submi ted by Dr. I. S. Harold; "The Hoosier State Automobile Association, with representatives from thirty-two affiliated clubs, will hold a meeting next Tuesday, Feb. 15. at Indianapolis in connection with a meeting of parties interested in extending the Pikes Peak .from Ocean to Ocean. They expected to follow the National Old Trails road, but unless interest is vigorously manifested and soon upon the part of the peeople along the National Old Trails Road, you can just depend upon It that the routing will be down through Cincinnati. Terre Haute already has, we understand, lost out simply by Inaction and ".the route lsnow through Rockville to Indianapolis." Th nonnle of Richmond and Wayne

county should bestir themselves and send over to Indianapolis a delegation to set forth the claims of this route. If we can secure the routing of this road by the way of Richmond we will then have the National Old Trails Road; the Hoosier Dixie Way, and the Pikes Peak Ocean to Ocean Highway going from Indianapolis east as far as Dayton over this highway. This another of the many important reasons why we should construct a permanent, Main Street.
