Tales of Well Known Folk In Social and %cial Life Secretary Wilbur Makes Progress in Promoting |ltsation &t the G i naed this United States and Canada Co-operation in Construction of 2,000-Mile Highway. " BY MARGARET B. DOWNING. ‘The Secretary of the Interior, Dr. Wilbur, has added a tremendous force to the siogan, “See America first,” in the efforts he has made to secure com- plete co-operation from the Canadian government in that stretch of 2,000 miles of good road which s to connect Seattle with Fairbanks, Alaska. This automobile highway will in its new part be almost entirely through Ca- nadian territory toward the north, for | years ago the Pacific States—Wash-| ington, Oregon and California—joined | with British Columbia in that spectacu- | Jar plece of road bullding famous throughout the world as the Pacific Hlxhwqi;. Less than 750 miles remain now to be bullt and huge maps showing Bome of its most attractive points may be seen in the Secretary’s office. As novel as any trip possible in any part ot civiligation will result whén the road is opened, probably the middle of next Summer. While enormous travel will be by private vehicles, bus routes will soon be formed and already hostelries in that sparsely populated country sre dotted on the maps from the more settled parts of Vancouver until the wilds of Alaska are reached. Canadian government can offer com- fort and re neighboring country, but it will see that laws are obeyed and order maintained, no matter how crowded the thorough- fare may become. R A Mrs. Porter Hinman Dale, president of the Congressional Club, has origi~ nated some highly successful policies, but none of them has proved so happy as the co-operation she has secured by inviting groups of the younger con- gressional circle to become associate members. ‘That any project which in- terests the young daughtérs of the na- tional legislators and Jeads to their | attendance and hearty co- | regular operation must be written & success, has been more than proved. At no time since these weekly assemblies in the club were established have they been so well attended and so lively and colorful in their planning. Every Fri- day groups of these associa! and their friends are hovering aies to the regular hostesses, and be- | sides being attractive they are most efficient. Under this new ruling the married daughters of Senators and members are admitted. Mrs. John Marshall Robsion, wife of the new Benator from Kentucky, has been able to have her daughter, Mrs. H. G. Ed- munds, ‘as her companion at the enter- tainments and Miss Vera Bloom often takes care of her mother's guests in the same way. A division upder the name of “permanent house: guests” has widened the scopé:st’ organization. Mrs. Dale has et young niece, Miss Helen Dajé Coslick, ‘in this list and Mrs. Wallace J¥.
