This is a digital copy of a book that was preserved for generations on library shelves before it was carefully scanned by Google as part of a project
to make the world's books discoverable online.
It has survived long enough for the copyright to expire and the book to enter the public domain. A public domain book is one that was never subject
to copyright or whose legal copyright term has expired. Whether a book is in the public domain may vary country to country. Public domain books
are our gateways to the past, representing a wealth of history, culture and knowledge that's often difficult to discover.
Marks, notations and other maiginalia present in the original volume will appear in this file - a reminder of this book's long journey from the
publisher to a library and finally to you.

because we believe a book is in the public domain for users in the United States, that the work is also in the public domain for users in other
countries. Whether a book is still in copyright varies from country to country, and we can't offer guidance on whether any specific use of
any specific book is allowed. Please do not assume that a book's appearance in Google Book Search means it can be used in any manner

the location of your starting point or destination. Key
will refer you to their approximate position on the map.

(2) General Index Map (Page 7). This map will show
you all the routes between two given points. -, Select the
route you wish to take. The number on the route selected
with arro2v pointing in the direction, you wish to go is your
Route Number and refers you t© the
(3) Running Directions in the body of the book. You
will find the "Route Numbers" at the top of each page.
In Planning Long Tours
Route Chart (Page 4).
Route Numbers and arrowheads, with distances between
terminals, will be found on the Route Chart and may be
used in exactly the same way as the General Index Map.
For Volume Number, information on adjacent territory,
see Page 756.
How to Use the Running Directions
The "Running Directions" are the printed text matter
describing each route. Two columns of figures are shown
on the left side of each page of text matter (Running
Directions). The outside column shows the total or
accumulated mileages from the starting point of the route
to any point on the route. The inside column shows the
mileage between two adjacent or consecutive points or
towns.
Checking Your Route by Following Your Odometer
It is most important to set your odometer (the "trip" part
of your speedometer) at the beginning of each route,
just as you leave the definite starting point, or at any
point where the route is taken, as indicated in the left-hand
column of mileages in the running directions,
Diflferences in tire sizes, varying inflation and other ele-
ments may cause variation in the recording instrument's
record. When your odometer is running over or under
the mileage as printed in the Automobile Blue Book,
make allowance accordingly. Resetting your odometer
to tally with the text mileage, as suggested, will greatly
assist you in locating each turning point.
ALL Blue Book mileage records are checked by two
odometers, used in charting roads, to insure the accuracy
of the mileage as recorded.

General Index
A Combined Listing of Towns, Populations, Routes,
Hotel and Garage Accommodations.
Cities and Towns on the General Index Map in this volume are listed here
alphabetically, irrespective of States.
Town names with an asterisk (♦) appear only on the enlarged Index Map
of the New York City Section. (Page 5 of the General Index Map.)
List of Routes is noted under Route Terminals and important towns.
City Street Maps and Points of Interest Notations at Route Centers
will be found on the pages as noted under those towns.
Key Letter and Numbers, which appear after town names, refer to let-
ters and numbers on the margins of the General Index Map, in the front of
the book. In order to locate a town on the General Index Map and obtain the
numbers of the routes touching it, first note the Key Letters and Numbers to
the towns in this Index and then refer to corresponding Let-
ters and Numbers on the border of the General Index Map.
Follow an imaginary straight line from both marginal Letter
and Number and the desired town should be found near the
point where these two imaginary lines converge.
Hotels, Garages and Other Advertisers are listed here
under their respective cities or towns, with their addresses and
reference to pages where their advertisements will be found.

Covering: PERSONAL INJURY

COLLISION
Personal Injury Policy protects against liability for injuries to
other people.
Properly Damage protects against damage to other people's prop-
erty.
It is the policy of The Travelers to settle claims amicably, thus
saving its policyholders the necessity of appearing in court. If,
however, suit is brought, The Travelers defends the case, defrays
all the court costs and expenses and pays the verdict (if any)
up to the limit of the policy.
Automobilists need <|uick and efficient service when away from
home and The Travelers through its great organization provides
it ever3rwhere in the United States and Canada.
An identification card accompanies each policy, upon presenta-
tion of which the assistance of our adjusters and inspectors is
immediately available.
COLLISION CERTIFICATE covers damages to your own car
by collisions with any object.
ACCIDENT POLICIES
Every automobile owner should also carry Personal Accident
Policies. Automobile accidents constitute 1 6. 5 % of the total
number of personal accident claims paid by The Travelers and
19.5% of the total benefits paid.

miles of plumbing, and seventy-five miles of

each, and employ more than 12,000 electric
licbts, supplying as many as 4000 offices and
housing a population of 12,000 people.
The effect of this enormous concentration of
steel in a small area is so strong it frequently
varies the points of the compasses on boats in
the harbor as much as seven degrees.
In the historic inner harbor off the Battery
arc the famous Statue of Liberty, presented
to the Unhed States by the French Govern-
ment; Ellis Island, where the immigrants land;
Governor's Island, the headquarters of the
Army in the East; historic Castle William;
and off Staten Island is Robbins Reef Light-
house.
On the Battery is an interesting and well-
kept Aquarium, occupying a circular building
dating from 1812, when it was Fort Qinton,
used to defend the city against the British;
later it was Castle Garden, an amusement re-
sort, where Lafayette was tendered a reception
in 1824, and where there were receptions to
the early Presidents, also to the Prince of
Wales. Jenny Lind sang there under the
direction of P. T. Bamum, in 1850, and it
was used as a Federal Government immigra-
tion station from 1855 to 1890, when Ellis
Island was established.
Near the Battery, at Bowling Green, is a
new Federal custom house, which cost $4,-
500,000, standing on the site of Fort Amster-
dam (1620).
Bowling Green was established as a park
by the EngliA Government in 1732; was the
scene of a public demonstration against the
Stamp Act, 1775;* in 1776, when the act was
repealed, an equestrian statue of King George
was ordered from Europe and erected by the
citizens of New York; following the Declara-
tion of Independence it was torn down by
them, together with the surrounding fence,
which contained miniature crowns. The statue
was shipped to Litchfield, Conn., molded into
bullets, and it was estimated that five hundred
British soldiers were killed by them.
The first Trinity Church at the head of Wall
Street was built in 1697; destroyed by fire,
rebuilt, torn down and the present structure
erected in 1846. It is the richest church so-
ciety in the United States, and enjoys an
income from its properties of more thsn a
million dollars a year. Many noted men and
women are buried in its yard, ind one of the
most curious "graves" is of Charlotte Temple,
s fictitious character in Mrs. Rowson's ''Tale
of Truth," 1790. The Martyrs' Monument
was erected to the American prisoners who
died in New York prisons in the Revolution.
Captain Lawrence (war of 1812), Commander
of the Chesapeake, who during the fight with
the Shannon, said, "Don't give up the ship,"
Alexander Hamilton and others are buried
there.
In the Wall Street district the principal point
of interest is the Stock ISxchange, which con-
tains a thousand members, and in which seats
have been sold for more than $100,000. There
is also the Consolidated Exchange at Broad
and Beaver, and the Curb Market, held un-
sheltered, in Broad Street in all kinds of
weather; the banking house of J. P. Morgan,
the Sub-Treasury, which stands upon the site
of the old capitol of the province, which was
later Federal (k>vemment Hall, where the first
Congress was held, and where Washington
took the oath of office, April 30, 1789. A
statue of him, in front of the building rests
upon s stone upon which he stood in the
building when he was sworn.
The building is now the greatest repository
of gold in the world. It is supposed to be
self-protective, and has steel doors with port
holes and an arsenal within, and on the roof
is fitted with turrets from which guns could
be fired.
Further south on Wall Street is the Na-
tional City Bank in a building which was the
old Federal custom 'house. Nearby, on Cedar
and Broadway, is the New York Clearing
House, and on Liberty Street the Chamber of
Commerce, which dates from 1768.
At Broad and Pearl Streets is Fraunce's
Tavern, restored, where Washington bade fare-
well to his army.
West Street and South Street, both starting
at the Battery, one along the North River and
the other along the East River, contain the
wharves and piers, and bind together the
wholesale and banking district. On South
Street and Coenties Slip is the Seamen's In-
stitute, an interesting sailor's home, which is
capped by the Titanic Lighthouse, a memorial
to the ill-fated steamship "Titanic." This in-
stitute broke the backbone of the sailors' board-
ing house system which once thrived along
South and West Streets and robbed '*Jzc\i
Tar."
Further uptown, near the old Post Office, on
Broadway and Vesey' Street, is St. Paul's
Church (1766), the only church in New York
saved from the Revolution. Among the early
worshippers were Lord Howe, King George IV,
when a midshipman, and George Washington,
who repaired there after taking the oath of
office in Wall Street and attended service.
North of the City Hall
In City Hall Park are the old City Hall,
considered a fine example of early architecture;
the new Municipal Building, which towers
above its historic forefather; the Hall of Rec-
ords, on Chambers Street, and the entrance
to Brooklyn Bridge, opened in 1883, and which
cost more than $25,000,000. On the east is
Park Row, which leads into the Bowery at
Chatham Square, several blocks to the north.
The Bowery was once famed for its dives, but
though still interesting, has lost much of its
former ill repute, a tame and uninteresting
place. Off Chatham Square is Chinatown,
and Pell, MoU and Doyers Streets, always
appeal to the visitor.
Further north on Broadway and 10th Street
is picturesque Grace Church, with its open-
air pulpit. On 14th Street and Broadway is
Union Square, now largely used a* an open-
air forum, where divers doctrines are delivered.
It is a favorite spot with the Socialists.
To the west of Broadway, at 4th Street, is
Washington Square, around which clusters the
downtown artistic colony of Manhattan and in
which is a statue of Garibaldi, the shrine of
the Manhattan Italians; and Washington Arch,
a creation by Stanford White. This section
was originally Captain Robert Richard Ran-
dall's farm. He left the property, now im-
mensely valuable, for the support of Sailors'
Snug Harbor, a sailors' home on Staten Island.
It yields a rental of nearly $1,000,000 a year.
East of Broadway, at 8th Street, are Bible
House and Cooper Square, where stands the
Cooper Institute.
Further north, at 23rd Street and Broadway,
is Madison Square, containing Madison Square
Garden by Stanford White and capped with a

Broadway and Riverside Drive are the main
arteries of Automobile travel in New York.
THE HOTEL BELLECLAIRE, Broadway at
77th Street, is right in the heart of the zone traveled
so much by automobile owners.
Its service to Automobilists, in the way of accom-
modations and good food, will prove as satisfying as
the smooth riding on these fine roadways — Broadway
and Riverside Drive.
THE HOTEL BELLECLAIRE is near to you
coming and going — and when you are good and
hungry, as you generally are after a tour, do not for-
get THE BELLECLAIRE'S good food, cooked in
an appetizing way.

[2*] PLEASANTVILLE, N. Y. — On old settle-
ment in Cfoton water shed country on land
separating the Saw Mill and the Croton Val-
leys. To the north is Chappaqua Mountain.
The whole Chappaqua territory is famous for
its apples and cucumbers. .\t the railway
station is a statue of Horace Greeley, who es-
tablished a farm while editor of "The New
York Tribune" and called it Greeley Swamp.
The old gentleman made free with the natives
and frequently orated to them around election
time. He never learned much about farm-
ing, although he used his expcreince to answer
farming questions in his paper. One of his
gentle readers inquired if Paris Green was
good to put on potatoes, and Horace replied
that it might be "for those whose taste were
vitated by rum and tobacco, but that he pre-
ferred ham gravy." He died at the home of
Dr. Choate near his farm, Nov. 29, 1872. The
original house was burned, but a later one,
on the site, is occupied by his daughter.
[3*] Katonah. N. v.— The new Croton Res
ervoir caused the rebuilding of the town, one
mile south. Country about is one of estates
of New York people. Was residence of John
Jay, Chief Justice U. S. Supreme Court.
Colonel Jacobus van Cortlandt, Chief Justice,
died there 1829. Much of the valley is oc
cupied by reservoirs of the Croton system,
owned by city of New York.

til 1901, when the people, not proud of the
fact that a prison was located in their midst,
decided to change the name. The Philltpse
Manor, which began at Yonkcrs, extended as
far north as Ossining. Off Tellers Point, which
extends into the Hudson about one and a half
miles, the British man-of-war "Vulture" lay at
anchor, waiting the return of Major Andre
from a conference with Benedict Arnold; a
party of Americans fired upon her and she
dropped down the stream. Later Andre made
an attempt to cro3s the Hudson at Kings Ferry
and reach New York by land, which resulted
in his capture.

[1*] Plbasaxtvillb, V, y. — An old settle-
ment in Croton water shed country on land
separating the Saw Mill and the Croton Val-
leys. To the north is Chappaqoa Mountain.
The whole Chappaqna territory is famous for
its apples and cucumbers. At the railway
nstioB is a statue of Horace Greeley, who es-
ublished a farm while editor of "The New
York Tribune** and called it Greel^ Swamp.
The old gentleman made free with the natives
and freqnestly orated to them around election
time. He never learned much about farm*
ing, although he used his experience to answer
fanning questions in his paper. One of his
gentle readers inquired if Paris Green was
good to put on potatoes, and Horace replied
that it might be "for those whose taste were
vitiated by rum and tobacco, but that he pre-
ferred ham gravy." He died at the home of
Dr. Choate near his farm, Nov. 29, 1872. The
original house waa burned, but a later one.
on the site, is occupied by his daughter.

[1*J Pownal, Vt. — Settled 1724; on an in-
tenrale between the north and aonth entrances
of Hoosic Pass, through the Taconics. The
early settlers were Dutch, who had a coft-
yincing way of enlisting the Tories into the
American cause by hanging thea ts a fenee
post until they came around, one way or the
other. Nearby t "Weeping- ■ Pudding* Stone
Rocks," an attractive point, admired by Gen*
eral Washington. The Indians believed thj
spots on th "weeping rocks'* were tears shed
when the Mohawks butchered a Mohican war
party (166S). At Wliite Oak village are sand
springs, valued as a cure for rheumatism. The
water is supposed to rise from a de^th of 1500
ft.| retaining a temperature of N, charged
with gases similar to the waters of Hot Springs,
Arkansas, and Carlsbad, Germany.
[2»] WnxiAlrtTOWN, Mass.— Settled 1749;
a pretty residential town, on the Hoosic and
Green RiverSf and the seatrpf Williams Col-
lege. At the western end of Uain Street is
Field Memorial Park,' laid out hj Frederick
Law Olmsted, and named after Qyrus W.
Field, organizef of the Atlantic Tdegrapb
Company. In Mission Park is Haystack Mon-
ument, which lias to do with the founding
of the American missionary movement. The
college buildings are very extensive and beau-
tiful. There are many diatingu^hed alumni,
including William Cullen Bryant, the poet, and
James A. Garfield, martyred President, whose
son, James A. Garfitid^ is J President of the
college. There is a driye through Torrey**
Woods to the south,. Behind Boe Hill rises
Berlin Mountain, highest point of the Taconic

Shay's Rebellion, attaclced by State forces sent
to put them down, improvised* dummy field
piece by mounting yard-beam of Mother Perry's
loom on wheels; sight of which caused gallant
troops to flee in dismay. East Lee also pre-
serves another piece of romance regarding
Charlie Gates, who one brisk morning in May
(1861), took his father's cows to pasture and
did not return with them until May, 1864;
cows were found in the meantime in Uieir ac-
customed gracing place, but Charlie went to
war and it happened that he returned about
milking time three years later and on his way
to the house, just as a matter of habit, drove
the cows in.

erable disturbance of one's system.** He hated
the community thoroughly and hoped somebody

Danbury, Conn.
I>AXBfi«Y, CoHif. — Settled in 1684 and has
always been the center of the fur-felt hat in-
dustry.
It is sometimes called Hat Town.
The scene of an annual State Fair, in Sep-
tenaber, which attracts exhibitors and rtsitors
from all parts of the country.
The city is situated at the conflnenee of the
SttU amd aevcral smaller streams.
Gen. Tfyon destroyed the Ontiaeatal Store-
house in Danbury, 1777, and was pursued to
Richfield, Conn., where he was defeated by
Gen. Wooster.
Zadoc Benedict started the hat industry and
in 1780 he produced "three hats a day.*'
For many years the hat business was consid-
ered very unsanftary and injurious to health.
The Hatters' Union is one of the strongest
trade bodies in the country; they have been
called the "Mad Hatters of Danbury."
For fifteen years they fought the Lowe Hat
Co. and a final judgment in favor of the firm
for $300,000 has been enforced, with the re-
sult that 166 members of the Union lost their
property under the auctioneer's hammer.
There are fifty hat factories in the city, and
they produce about $6,000,000 worth of hats a
year. \
Jas. A. Bailey, a wit, known as the Danbury
Newsman, lived there, and it is said to have
been the home of Enoch Crosby, the original
"Harvey Birch," a character in Cooper's
"Spy."
One of the side trips is to Putnam Park.

(2*1 Old Lymb, Conn. — Few towns in the
"Nutmeg" State hare retained so much of
their old time character; situated at the mouth
of the Connecticut River, opposite Saybrook,
it was more familiar to the motorists of tea
years ago than it is to the up-to-date motor
traveler. The building of a new bridge across
jthe Connecticut River removed Old Lyme |o
some extent from the direct Kne of motor
travel. It has a great variety of attractions
to those who like a quaint, old*fashioned town.
There is a good bathing beach and a wealth of
scenery which has always been attractive to
artists. The town supports an art school,
which has headquarters in the Boxwood Manor
School.

Marston's River. Wianno is a fashionable
resideatial section between the two bays. The
S^oit golf course is considered one of the
finest on the cape. Camp Opechee on Lake
Waquaquet is noted for fish dinners.
[8*] Bainstabls, Mass.— Settled 1639. It
is a pleasant, restful town with old bouses
and the oldest bell in New England, cast
in 1665. Priscilla Mullens, to whom John
.\iden carried Miles Standish's proposal, lived
there. Miles Standish, surveyor by profession,
made original surreys of this part of Cape
Cod. Once had a considerable wlialing fleet.
Jaoies Otis, orator and signer of the Declara-
tion of Independence, and Chief Justice
I^emuel Shaw were natives.
(10*J Yabmouth, Mass. — A typical Cape Cod
town, once a whaling, now a cod-fishing center,
thiring the Revolution works were established
for the distillation of ocean water and the
manufacture of salt. It is a popular summer
resort, and there are many Indian legends.
Near Swan's Pond was an ancient Indian
village, the burial ground of which may be
seen.
111*3 Dbmnis, Mass. — Indian name "Nobscus-
sett"; first a fishing and trading point, later
salt making center; famed for respectability of
inhabitants, including many retired sea cap*
tains. The Shivericks built fast sailing ves-
sels earlsi date; wiM cranberries, grew in great
profusion in neighborhood, were cultivated
( 1840) ; Indian legend regarding Scargo Lake,
says whimsical daughter of a chief desired a
fish pond; the women of her tribe scooped out
one with clam sheels; the men filled the basin
with water and thus developed Scargo Lake.
[12*] BaawsTta, Mass.— Settled 1860; on the
"ankle" of Cape Cod; a fishing village and
rendezvous of sea-captains, active and retired.
A collection of paintings, in the home of Capt.
Albert Crosby, may be seen. Joseph C. Lincoln,
author of "Partners of the Tide" and other
Cape Cod stories, wss born in Brewster, which
boasts of the oldest windmill on the cape:
namecT for the elder Brewster, of the "May-
flower.**
[13*] O ILEA Ns, Mass.— (Cape Cod.)— Settled
1750; of late years has acquired some notice
as a tax-dodgers* paradise. In five years the
valuation of property increased from $700,000
to $5,000,000, at a rate of $3.00 per thousand,
during which time many local improvements,
including good roads, were completed. Mill*
ionaires flocked there in an effort to establish
*1egal residence." Some of them merely en-
gaged rooms in tents or lodging houses. Stam-
pede started by S. W. Winslow, a show
machinery manufacturer. Township consider-
ably cut up by the sea; on the east is Nauset
Beach, which reaches to Highland Light, a
distance of thirty miles; this beach takes in
Pleasant Bay, the largest body of enclosed
water on Cape Cod. A French cable makes a
landing at this point. There are three wind-
mills more than 150 years old. Captain John
Smith landed on the shores and left one of his
ships for some time, under the command of
Captain Hunt, who kidnapped a number of
Indians and sold them as slaves in Spain for
$100 each. About the time of our Civil
War, the Sparrow Hawk, an English ship of
1620, was uncovered by the sea, and an
examination of the ancient wreck disclosed
the fact that there was a passage for vessels
into the harbor, at that time, which was noted
on the early English charts, but had been lost
from the later charts. In 1717 the sea washed
a passage across the cape between Orleans and
Eastham, but with much labor the inhabitants
succeeded in filling it up.

settled 1644, on site of Indian "Nawset"; first
white settlers, pilgrims under direction Thomas
Prince; early minbters of gospel received por-
tion of oil from whales washed ashore; Henry
Thoreau says: "One could see divines sitting
idly upon beach, waiting for salary to come in";
Nauset Lights on bluffs, with life saving sta-
tion below.
115*] WuxFLSBT, Mass. — ^Incorporated 1775.
It was the second landing place of the Pilgrims
and once a whaling port, now a fishing village
catering to summer visitors. "Wherever over the
world yon sec the Stars and Stripes floating
you may have good hope that beneath them
some one will be found who can tell you the
soundings of Barnstable, or Wellfleet, or Chat-
ham Harbor." Birthplace: Lorenzo Dow
Baker (1840), named by his mother Thankful
Baker, who began the West Indian fruit busi-
ness which has developed into the United Fruit
Company, with an investment of $100,000,000
in the West Indian fruit business.
[1^6*] NosTH Truko, Mass. — The baybcrry,
which is abundant, is turned into the bay-
berry candles to burn at Christmas time, for
good luck. Nearby: Highland Light, one of
the first marine guides erected in U. S.
[17*] pROviNCETOWN, Mass. — Eliminating the
theory that Norsemen visited this point in 1006,
which has by some been set up as a fact, the
first visitors were probably a party under Cor-
tereal, 1501. Gosold explored the section,
1602, and John Smith 1614. The Pilgrims
sighted the tip of Cape Cod and anchored
Nov. 11« 1620, about three^iuarters of a mile
from the shore, in Provincetown Harbor. The
Pilgrims waded ashore and, while the "May-
flower" was at anchor in the harbor. Peregrine
White was bom on board, the first white child
officially born in what afterward became New
England. The historic "compact" was drawn
Pag« tt4
while the '"Mayflower" was at anchor and the
next move was the landing of Miles Standish
with sixteen men at Long Point. Some his-
torians have said these gentlemen proceeded
to rob graves as their first official act, but, of
course, there have been many writers preju-
diced against the Puriuns. The place, pictur-
esque in its location and by reason of large
surrounding sand dunes, progressed immedlatdy
into a fishing and whaling locality, and is one
of the most popular summer places upon the
Cape. Many artists are among the summer
colonists, and the local Art Association holds
an annual exhibition in the Town HalL Pil-
grim monument (250 ft. high) stands on Tow*
Hill; comer stone was laid by Mr. Roosevelt,
and it was dedicated by Mr. Taft; said to &«
tallest masonry tower in the country, except
Washington Monument, Washington. A curi-
ous industry is carried on by David C Stull,
who buys all of the sperm from diseased
whales at the fabulous price of $500 a pound;
less than two tons have ever been collected,
and Mr. Stull has handled the greater part of
it. It is the basis of a rare perfume.
Cape Cod has been pictured as a fish hook
with Race Point representing the point and
Long Point the barb. West of Long Point is
Wood End Life Saving Station. There are
great sand dunes called "Provincelands," which
belong to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
These lands were once covered with trees, anu
scientific forestry has been carried on by the
State of late years. Many of the early settlers
were lost in the sea, which naturally rages
about the tip of the Cape, and makes the fishing
business a hazardous one. The British fleet
used the harbor, 1812, and it was at Province-
town that the British man-of-war turned over
to the government Mason and Slidell durinf
the Civil War.

[6*] Masblbheao, Mass. — Settled 1629; old-
fashioned town not seriously invaded by modern
life; most of oroginal bouses intact; older than
either Salem or Boston; relics are Court,
Powder House, and Abbott Hall; Corinthian
and Eastern Yacht Clubs on Marblehead Neck,
and locality sought by yachtsmen from all parts;
has been called birthplace of American navy;
was a center for privateering trade and harbor
in summer is crowded with pleasure boats of
every description. In the Tovm Hall hangs
famous painting of "The Spirit of 76/' by
A. M. Willard, which has probably been copied
and reproduced in greater variety of form than
any painting in the U. S. Col. William Lee
mansion, open during summer to visitors, de-
signed by Bulfinch, drawing room decorated
with hand-painted wall paper; Jeremiah Lee
house, one of most elaborate of period (1768),
open to visitors; Town Hall (1727), Marble-
head's "cradle of liberty," where instigators of
Revolution met secretly; in loft was organized
Col. Glover's famous unphibious regiment of
seamen, which led ContiAntal forces from Long
Island, and at Trenton saved day by ferrying
army across Delaware. Skipper Ircson's house,
not always shown to visitors, as the people of
Marblehead resent insinuation in Wbittier's
poem, "Skipper Ireson's Ride," which casta
ignominy upon one of the town's respected citi-
cens; house on Oakum Bay, near Glover bouse;
Marblehead was birthplace of Elbridge Gerry,
patriot, "signer," and Vice-President of U. S.;
home of CoL Azore Orne, who loaned govern-
ment barrel of silver dollars, which it never
repaid ; district of Barnegat was harboring place
for pirates and smugglers; John Dimond, father
of Moll Pitcher, lived there and taught
daughter, afterward "fortune teller of Lynn":
Fountain Inn, made famous by legend of Agnes
Surriage, bar maid, whose story furnished
Holmes and Long with themes for poems; the
beauty of Agnes attracted the attention of Sir
Henry Frankland, Collector of the Port of Bos-
ton; she became him mistress and in the earth-
quake of Lisbon, 1775, rescued him from the
ruins for which he made her Lady Frankland;
Fort Sewall, now public park; Robert D. Evans
house, floated to Beverly and re-erected, was
occupied by President Taft as summer Whit*
House; peculiar dialect comes from early emi
grants, from Channel Islands; the first settlers
were quick to fight on any subject; at close of
Revolution, town boasted 100 orphans, 50
widows; more than half of crew of "Consti-
tution" came from Marblehead; of 1000 men
sent to the war of 1812. only 300 escaped death
or imprisonment; when President Lincoln called
for troops the news did not reach town until
.midnight, and shortly at daylight first company
to arrive in Boston came from Marblehead.

i7*] Salem, Mass. — Founded 1626; called
"The Witch City." It was prosperous before
Boston was founded, and was twice the seat
of the State government H628 and 1774). Its
harbor bad two very early forts, now crumbling
to rain. Prior to the Revolution it conducted
a large trade with the East Indies. In 1770 it
was tenth city in U. S.; 1914 visited by a dis-
astrous lire, which swept away many of the
historic landmarks. Watch Hill most noted
point of interest; the old jail has knockers
upon the door for those who wanted to get in;
Court House contains records of the witch>
craft delusion, which made the name of Salem
known the world over, although the delusion
did not originate there. Nathaniel Hawthorne
born there, and worked in the Customs House;
on Turner Street stood '*The House of Seven
Gables,** which he visited as a guest of the
Pynchon family, and his story of "The House
of Seven Gables" deals vrith the family and its
strange mode of life. The Witch House, in
which many of the witches were tried, was the
residence of Roger Williams, and was one of
the oldest houses in the country (1630).
Witchcraft delusion broke out 1692; a score
of persons were executed in Gallows Hill Park.
The Salem Marine Society, organized in 1799,
was composed of masters of vessels sailing
out of Salem and who had "rounded the
Horn."
[g*j Beverly, Mass.— Founded 1628; at
base of Cape Ann, by Roger Conant, tir^t
real estate promoter of New England; origin-
ally "Yankee Sorrento." During presidency

U. S. and ex-President still maintains h's
summer home. Hale Street follows shore

Washington had breakfast 1769; Lucy Larcom
lived No. 13 Wallis Street, occupied by Larcom
^theatre; home of Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes,

Hale, whose wife was last person accused of
witch-craft in New England. Other old
houses, include 88 Cabot Street, built by
Joshua Fisher, M. D., captured at sea by
the British and after his escape returned and
promoted first cotton factory in the United
States. From Reservoir. North Beverly, view
of sea and surrounding towns. Never had a

able prediction. In the Lynn Woods is a 2000
acre pleasure park, containing a cave, where
buccaneers concealed their plunder, numerous
persons have spent years searching for this
treasure in vain. On Lantern Rock, nearby,
pirates are bel-'eved to have hung their signal
lights; a pre-Revolutionary wolf -pit, where early
.settlers trapped wild beasts: rattlesnake hunt-
ing a favorite sport; in early days before nuj-
chinery shoes were manufactured by workers
in their own homes and had hard wooden heels,
.which were followed by heels with springs in
side.

You Can Find in New England the
Scenic Wonders of Europe
NEW ENGLAND is but one-third the size of
France. Yet within its boundaries one can find
mountains which have been favorably compared
with the Alps; a coast line as quaint and interesting
as that of Brittany and lakes that rival those of
Northern Italy and Switzerland.
New England offers the attractions of Europe
— ^within the space of a few days* tour. Not only
from the point of scenery, but from that just as
important adjunct of touring — namely, good roads
— ^18 New England the rival of her neighbors across
the Atlantic. It is true that not long ago
**macadam** was a word that could scarcely be
applied to road conditions in the United States.
To-day macadam itself has been applied, with the
result that motorists can enjoy this beautiful coun-
try to the full.
In short, this northeasternmost corner of the
United States has been singularly blest by both man
and nature for the enjoyment of the motorist. With
good roads everywhere he has but to choose
whether it shall be the mountains of New Hamp-
shire or the more sophisticated pleasures of New-
port; the low-l3ring shores of Cape Cod or the rock-
bound seacoast of Maine; the charming Naugatjuck
Valley of Connecticut or the sloping hills of the
Berkshires and Green Mountains of Vermont.
It is a particular satisfaction for one who enjoys
the luxuries of travel — and who doesn't? — to know
that New England's hotels stand pre-eminent in the
matter of catering to the tourist's wants. One can
choose between the luxurious hostelries and the most
homelike of wayside inns. It is only a question of
one's taste and the size of one's pocketbook.
Three fascinating New England Tours are
described on map inside the back cover.

of one's system." He hated the community
thoroughly and hoped somebody would lay
the mountains flat. The wealthy did not begin
to migrate to Lenox until the Court Hous*
was moved to Pittsfield.

lege. At the western end of Main Street is
Field Memorial Pnrk, laid out by Frederick
Law Olmsted, and named after Cyrus W.
Field, organizer of the Atlantic Telegraph
Company. In Mission Park is Haystack Mon-
ument, which has to do with the founding
of the American missionary movement. The
college buildings are very extensive snd besu-
tifoL There are many distinguished alumni,
including William CuUen Bryant, the poet, and
James A. Garfield* martyred President, whose
ton, James A. Garfield, it President of the
college. There is a (Mve througli Torrey's
Woods to the sooth. Behind Bee* Hill rises
Berlin Mountain, highest point of the Tsconic
ridge. Nearby, at the villsge of Berlin, New
York, is an interesting farm called Mcadowvale,
noted for ita bowers. From many parta of
Williamstown are fine views of Greylock, the
State's highest peak. The Main Street was laid
out in 17S0, and the town was aamsd for
Col. Ephraim Williama,. Jr., Commander of Fort
Massachusetts, which was nearby. He left
a sum which was added to by a lottery, >and
Williams College was founded with an original
endowment of |72,000.
[*4] PowMAL, VT.->Settled 1724; on an im
tervale between the north and south entrances
of Hoosic Pass, through the Taconics. The
early settlers were Dutch, who had a con-
vincing way of enlisting iht Tories into the
American cause by hanging them to a fence'
post until they came around, one way or the
other. Nearby: **Weeping Pudding Stone
Rocks," an attractive point, admired by Gen-
eral Washington. The Indians believed the
spots on the ''weeping rocks" were tears shed
when the Mohawks butchered a Mohican war
party (1668). At White Oak village are sand
springs, valued as a cure for rheumatism. The
water is supposed fo rise from a depth of 1500
ft., retatnmg a temperature of 74, charg^
with gases similar to the waters of Hot Springs,
Arkansas, and Carlsbad, Germany.

[1*1 Saiato«a SPtiKOSy N. Y. — One of the
|>rincapal summer resorts of the Empire State;
seat of Siratoga County and the Skidmore
UniTersity.
There are numerous mineral springs, some
of ancient days and others of recent origin.
These medicinal waters, which contain a great
▼ariety of curative properties, were well known
to, and popular with the Indians, not only of
the East, but of the middle West and southern
Canada. They traveled on foot lor many miles
and spent months in the neighborhood.
During the Revolution the Springs were
Tisited by such Europeans as dared to brave
the sarrouading savages who guarded the lo-
cality jealously.
Soldiers of the French and British armies
▼isitcd the Springs as early as 1650 and per*
manetit settlement was begun by Sir William
Johnson about 1667.
After this period the locality began to grow
steadily in popularity and it was early known
to the Europeans, probably better than any
other spot in America.
During the Revolution it was the scene of
an important battle, Oct 7th, 1777; when
General Burgojme surrendered to General
Gates of the Continental Army.
The actual battle-ground was twelve miles
distant at Schuyierrille and there is a monu-
ment on the spot.
Prior to the Civil War the wealthy Southern
planters traveled to Saratoga; camping on the
way and carrying with them their entire fam-
ilies and many slaves.
About this time large hotels were erected
and in later years the State goYcrnment,
realiang the importance of preserving the nat-
ural beauty of the Spa, opened a eommislion^
and it is thought that the resort will be made,
in time to rival some of the famous Spas in'
Europe.
The Springs are privately owned and opef-.
ated and many of the waters are ahipped to
all paru of the worid.
Saratoga Lake, a small body of water, four
miles distant, is one of the attractions of -the^
community. . , '
There are good drives in all directfons and
many handsome estates, notably Woodlawn
Park, the home of the late Judge Hilton.
For a time after the Ovil War, Saratoga
was a noted chicken fighting center. Birds
were taken from all over the world and enor-
fflons sums wagered on the results of t|ie bat
tleSb Legislation put a stop to the sport. '
The next pastime of the fampus Spa was
gambling and horse racing. In Matter years
the best-known gambling house was that' of
Richard Caafield,. who was. the acknowledged
king of the gambling fraternity.
Gambling was done openly an^ i$ was^thje
custom after dinner for the men to retire iti
evening clothes to the gambling |ioi4se9, which
were gorgeous in thdr furnishings and settings,
and there play faro, roulette and oth^ games
of chance. Later in the evening th^ Udies
visited the gambling house as ^MCtators only.
While this was in vogue for the evening
amusement, horse racing _yas the. proper thing
for the afternoon and then driving for ^a
at the Lake or the larger hotels. The month,
of Auust, during late years, is the time, of^
the horse-racing meet.

[!•] Pownal, Vt. — Settled 1724; on an in-
tervale between the north and south entrances
of Hoosic ' Pass, through the Tatonics. The
early settlers were Dutch, who had a con-
vincing way of enlisting the Tories into the
American cause by hanging them to a fence
post until they came around, one way or the
other. Nearby: "Weeping Pudding Stone
Rocks," an attractive point, admired by Gen-
eral Washington. The Indians believed the
spots on the "weeping rocks" were tears shed
when the Mohawks butchered a Mohican war
party (1668). At White Oak viUage are sand
springs, valued as a cure for rheumatism. The
water is supposed to rise from a depth of 1500
ft, retaining a temperature of 74, charged
with gases similar to the waters of Hot Springs*
Arkansas, and Carlsbad, Germany.

[11*1 I«viNCTON, N. Y. — Named for Wash-
ington Irving, whose stories of Rip Van
Winkle have been published in many languages;
situated on Hudson River, at Tappan Zee,
widest part of Hudson; Mrs. Mason's School,
^ for girls; Mrs. Finley Shepard (Helen Gould)
country seat on road to Tarrytown. To west,
"Sunnyside," home of Washington Irving,
described in one of his boolcs; an ivy vine
which spreads over portion of many-gabled
buildings, grew from root presented by Walter
Scott, poet
[12*] H'astings-on-thb-Hudson, N. Y. — In
the river opposite is Indian H^ad, highest point
of the Palisades. A small but highly victorious
battle, from the Continental Army's standpoint,
took place at Hastings, Sept. 30, 1778. While
it is not mentioned by all historians, it is well
authenticated. After the battle of Monmouth,
N. J., June 29, 1778, Washington moved back
to the neighborhood of White Plains. On the
morning of September 30 a detachment of
Pennsylvania Continentals, commanded by Col.
Richard Butler, was in the neighborhood of
Hastings, and learned from Peter Post, an inn-
keeper, that a band of Hessians and Britisb
were on their way from Yonkers. The Amer-
icans immediately decided to ambush them, and
concealed themselves in a cedar grove, now a
part of the estate ^f F. C. Zinsser. Whea
they were fired upon near Edgar's Lane the
British troops dismounted and made a stand,
but were quickly driven down a ravine into the
Hudson, where many of them drowned; others
escaped along the river bank to Yonkers. At
this time Jeremiah Dobbs, from whom I>oUa
Ferry takes its name, ran a ferry across the
river to Molly Sneeden's Landing, near tfie
village of Piermont.
[13^] Yonkers, N. Y^— One of the earlier
settlements along Hudson; name derived from
Dutch "Younker"; Phillipsc Manor Hooie,
now museum, built 1682, with front added
1745, excellent specimen of Colonial archi-
tecture; Mary Phillipse refused hand of Wash-
ington; property confiscated during Revolutioc.
as Frederick Phillipse, then owner, was loyal-
ist; Manor Lord Phillipse had 100 servants in
house and owned property for many milci

Nightingale," was married there. In the "little
red house," Hawthorne Road, Hawthorne
wrote "The House of Seven Gables*' and "The
Wonder Book." The climate, now enjoyed
by many, was the subject of violent ravings, on
the part of Hawthorne, who said "There was
never ten minutes when it was not either too
hot or too cold, the result of which was s
miserable disturbance of one's system." He
hated the community thoroughly and hoped
somebody would lay the mountains flat. The
wealthy did not begin to migrate to Lenox until .
the Court House was moved to Pittsfield.

Clarks Island, in the river, are supposed to
have been buried a pirate's treasures. It was
known to the Indians as a good salmon spear-
ing place, and when the whites came it was
necessary for the red men to turn their spear-
ing attention to the newcomers for a period,
which had a deteriorating effect upon a per-
manent settlement, until 1714. Indians at-
tempted to capture the town as late as 1676,
when thirty-six troopers were sent from Had-
ley; they expected to be ambushed and were
while eating wild grapes by the roadside; only
sixteen escaped the hatchets of the Ind'ans.

Bromley Mountain was cut by the New Hamp-
shire soldiers, 1777, on their way to join the
Green Mountain Boys at Bennington. It
later became a toll road and is the only one
in the State. The legislature hat been un-
able to break the charter, probably becauic it
contains the unique statement that the com-
pany shall have control of the road *'»* long
as wood grows and water runs.'* The toll
is 50 cents, and the grades must be nego-
tiated easily, as there sre hundreds of water
breakers, which break more springs than rain
water. On the west of the summit is VsttcnkiO

12*] North Adams, Mass. — A popular sum-
mer place and important manufacturing center,
at junction of the north and south branches of
the Hoosac River. Within the citys limits is
a natural bridge, across Hudson Brook (55
feet high). The site of Fort Massachusetts,
which figured in French and Indian wars,
visible; one of the first saw mills in New
England built there and gave the place the
name of "Slab City," which clung for years;
iron works were established 1840, and the
plates for the Monitor, which sank the Con-
federate Mcrrimac, were made from ore mined
at Greylock. On the surrounding hills may
be traced the shore line of a prehistoric lake,
supposed to have extended from Stamford,
Vermont, to Williamstown. Nathaniel Haw-
thorne spent many summers there; the Hoosac
Tunnel (4.75 miles), the longest in U. S., is
nearby; commenced 1853, but the promoters
did not complete it and it was taken over and
finished by the State at a cost of 200 lives
and $20,000,000. Western approach to Florida
(Hoosac) Mountain; flagpole marks summit,
from wl'ich there are views of Berkshires,
Mt. Greylock dominating the foreground and
the Catskills in the distance.
[3*1 Williamstown, Mass. — Settled 1749;
a pretty residential town, on the Hoosie and
Green Rivers, and the seat of Williams Col-
lege. At the western end of Main Street is
Field Memorial Park, la'd out by Frederick
Law Olmsted, and named after Cvrus W.
Field, organizer of the Atlantic- Telegrmph
Company. In Mission Park in HaystafCk Monu-
ment, which has to do with the founding
of the American missionary raorenent. The
college buildings are very extens've atKl beau-
tiful. There are many distinguished aluaini,
including William Cullen Bryant, the poet, an.
James A. Garfield, martyred President, whose
son, James A. Garfield, is President of t-ie
college. There is a drive through Torrey's
Woods to the south. Behind Bee Hill rises
Berlin Mountain, highest point of the Taconic
ridtge. Nearby, at the village of Berlm, New
York, is an interesting farm called Meadowvale,
noted for its bowers. From many parts of
Williamstown are fine views of Greylock, t e
State's highest peak. The Main Street was Ii*'d
out in 1750, and the town was named for CoL
Ephraim Williams, Jr., Commander of Fort
Massachusetts, which was nearby. He left
a sum whicl^ was added to by a lottery, and
Williams <!ollege was founded with an original
endowment of 72,000.

Plymouth, Mass. — Aa interesdng place to
students of history.
The "Mayflover" cast anchor off its shores
Dec 21, 1620. artous reasons hsre been Si-
signed for Che selection of the spot and some
prejndicod persons maintain the nlgrims were
aeasifok sad had to land somewhere qnicklj.
The ideaticsl rock where the first Pilgrim
set his right foot has been carefnlly preserred
with A stone canopy to protect it from defsce-
ment and the weather.
There are records which place this rock on
another sandy shore, hot the landing of the
Pilgrims thcro has been otlierwisc conunem>
orated in the erection of a monument "In re*
membrance of their labors, sacrifices and suf-
ferings for the cause of civil and religious
liberty."
The principal figure of the memorial is a
sutute of Faith fai granite (36 ft high). At
the base are figures symbolie of llorality.
Law, Education and Freedom, below are mar-
ble tablets in r^icf of historic scenes.
In Plymouth are some of the oldest houses
in New England, including the Leaeb House
(1679); the HowUnd (1666); Coles Black*
smith Shop (1684); Shurtleff (1698); Crowe
(1664); Harlow <1667); the mattrial in the
fitter waa first used in an oM fort, on Burial
Hia The Winslow House (1754) is a fine
architectural eaample of the Rerolutionary
period.
In Pilgrim Hall b a large collection of
relics, including the commission from Otiver
Cromwell to Goremor Wilson; the chairs of
Brewster and (SoTemor Carrer; die Bible of
John Alden and (SoTernor Bradford; Miles
Standish's Damascus sword, said to date three
centuries prior to the Christian era. The blade
may have come down to Standish from the
Crusaders. There is also the barrel of the
gun which killed King Philip.
A library in the Hall contains Tolumes
dated 1559, and there are some of the oldest
Stste papers in the country. There is also
a eopy of Eliot's Indian Bible.
In the Registry Building is filed the will of
Miles Standish.
In Cole's Hill Cemetery, the first Pilgrim
burying ground, rest the remains of nearly
one-half of those who Isnded from the "May-
flower," a majority of them were buried the
first winter.
In order to deceive the Indians regarding
the loss in their numbers the wiley Pilgrim
surrirors leveled the graves of their dead and
planted grass.
Governor Bradford was buried in Plymouth.
His home stood at the corner of Main and
Lcyden Streets* diagonally across from the
Pilgrim Spring and near the site of the first
house.
Among other points of interest sre Town
Brookt the Training Qrt^n, Watson Hill, Pil-
grim Wharf, and the Miles Stsndish monu-
ment at Dwcbury.
The Pilgrion spent their first Sabbath on
Clark's Island.
They held their first jury trial in 1633,
which would indicate that dkey were all good
for three years.

inliabitants, including many retired sea cap-
tains. The Sliivcricics built fast sailing ves-
sels early date; wild cranberrieSi grew in great
profusion in neighborhood, were cultivated
(1840); Indian legend regarding Scargo Lake,
says whimsical daughter of a chief desired a
fish pond; the women of her tribe scooped out
one with clam shells; the men filled the basin
with water and thus developed Scargo Lake.
[5*] BaBWSTEK, Mabsw— Settled 1860; on the
"ankle" of Cape Cod; a tishing village and
rendezvous of sea-captains, active and retired.
A oolleetion of paintings, in the home of Capt.
Albert Crosby, may be seen. Jas. C. Lincoln,
author of "Partner^ of the Tide" and other
Cape Cod stories, was born in Brewster, which
boasts of the oliest windmill on the cape;
named for the elder Brewster, of the "May-
flower."
[6*2 OaLEAKS, Mass.— (Cape Cod.)— Settled
1750; of late years has acquired some notice
as a tax-dodgers* paradise. In five years the
valuation of property Increased from $700«000
to $5,000,000, at a rate of $3.00 per thousand,
during which time many local improvements,
including good roads, were completed. Mill-
ionaires flocked there in an effort to establish
"legal residence." Some of them merely en-
gaged rooms in tents or lodging houses. Stam-
pede started by^ S. W. Winslow, a show
machinery manufacturer. Township consider-
ably cut up by the sea; on the east is ^Nauset
Ueach, which reaches to Highland Light, a
distance of thirty miles; this beach takes in
Pleasant Bay, the largest body of enclosed
water on Cape Cod. A French cable makes a
landing at this point. There are three wind-
mills more than 150 years old. Captain John
Smith landed on the shores and left one of his
ships for some time, ilnUer the command of
Captain Hunt, who kidnapped a number of
Indians and sold them as slaves in Spsin for
$100 each. About the time of our Civil
War, the Sparrow Hawk, an English ship •f
1620, was uncovered by the sea, and an ex-
amination of the and^nt wreck discloApd
Che fact that there wa9 a passage for vessels
into the harbor, at that time, which was noted
on the early English charts, but had been lost
from the later charts. In 1717 the sea washed
a passage across the cape between Orleans and
Eastliam, but with much labor the inhabitants
succeeded in filling it up.
[7*] Eastbam, Mass. — A Cape Cod town,
settled 1644, on site of Indian "Nawset;" first
white settlers, pilgrims under direction Thomas
Prince; early ministers of gospel received por-
tion of oil from whales washed ashore; Ixenry
Thoreau says: "One could see divines sitting
idly upon beach, waiting for salary to come in;*'

[8*j Wbixflsbt, Mass. — Incorporated 1775.
It was the second landing place of the Pilgrims
and once a whaling port, now a fishing village
catering to summer yisitors. "Wherever over the
world you see the Stars and Stripes floating
you may have good hope that beneath them
some one will be found who can tell you the
soundings of Barnstable, or Wellfleet, or Chat-
ham Harbor." Birthplace: Lorenzo Dow
Baker (1840), named by his mother Thankful
Baker, who began the West Indian fruit busi-
ness which baa developed into the United r ruit
Company, with an investment of $100,000,000
in the West Indian fmit business.
(9*1 TsuBO, Mass.— Settled 1700, at a part
of Cape Cod, where pinlnsula is narrow. Bay-
berries, a kind of wax myrtle, grow abundantly,
and old-fashioned bayberry candles arc made
from the sage-green wax by dipping, after
boiUng. At North Truro, on the bay shore,
there is a modern cold storage plant where
thotmads of barrels of fish are stored.
[10*3 NoBTH TsUKO^ MAsa— The bayberry,
which is abundant, is turned into the bay-
berry candles to bum at Chrtitmas time, for
good hsck. Nearby: Highland light, one of
the first marine gaides erected in U. S.
[11*) PsoviircBTOWN, Mass. — Eliminating the
theory that Norsemen visited this point in 1006,
which has hj some been set up as a fact, the
first visitors were probably a party under Cor-
tereal, 1501. Gosold explored the section,
1602, and John Smith 1614. The Pilgrims
sighted the tip • of Cape Cod and anchored
Nov. 11, 1620, sbont three-quarters of a mile
from the shore, in Prortaeetown Harbor. The
Pilgrims waded ashore and while the "May-
flower" was at aadior in the hariwr, Peregrine
White was bora on board, the first white child
offidally bom is what afterward became New
England. The historic "compact" was drawn
while the "Mayflower*' was an anchor and the
next move was the landing of Miles Standish
with sixteen men at Long Point. Some his-
torians have said these gendemen proceeded
to rob graves as their first ofiicial act, but, of
course, there have been many writers preju-
diced against the Puritans. The place, pictur-
esque in its location and by reason of large
surrounding sand dunes, progressed immediately
into a fishing and whaling locality, and is one
of the most popular summer places upon the
Cape. Many artists are among the summer
colonists, and the local Art Association holds
an annual exhibition in the Town Hall. Pil-
grim monument (250 ft. high) stands on Town
Hill; corner stone was laid by Mr. Roosevelt,
and it was dedicated by Mr. Taft; said to be
tallest/ masonry tower in the country except
Wasliington Monument, Washington. A curi-
ous industry is carried on by David C. Stull,
who buys all of the sperm from diseased
whales at the fabulous price of $500 a pound;
less than two tons have ever been collected,
and Mr. Stull has handled the greater part of
it. It is the basis of a rare perfume.
Cape Cod has been pictured as a fish hook
with Race Point representing the point and
Long Point the barb. West of Long Point is
Wood End Life Saving Station. There are
great sand dunes called "Provincelands,** which
belong to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
These lands were once covered with trees, and
scientific forestry has been carried on by the
State of late years. Many of the early settlers
were lost in the sea, which naturally rages
about the tip of the Cape, and makes the fishing
business a haxardous one. The British fleet
used the harbor, 1812, and it was at Province-
town that the British man-of-war turned ove
to the government Mason and Slidell durii
the CivU War.

[1*] OiLBANS, Mass.— (Cape Cod).— Settled
1750; of late years has acquired some notice
as a taX'dodgers* paradise. In fiye years the
valuation of property increased from $700,000
to $5,000,000, at a rate of $3.00 per thousand,
during which time many local improvements,
including good roads, were completed. Mill-
ionaires flocked there in an effort to establish
"legal residence." Some of them merely en-
gaged rooms in tents or lodging houses. Stam-
pede started ^ S. W. Winslow, a show
machinery manufacturer. Township consider-
ably cut up by the sea; on the east is Nauset
Beach, which reaches to Highland Light, a
distance of thirty miles; this beach takes in
Pleasant Bay, the largest body of enclosed
water on Cape Cod. A French cable makes a
landing at this point. There are three wind-
mills more than ISO years old. Captain John
Smith landed on the shores and left one of his
ships for some time, under the command of
Captain Hunt, who kidnapped a number of
PageSM
Indians and sold them as slaves in Spain for
$100 each. About the time of onr Ciril
War, the Sparrow Hawk, an English ahip o(
1620. was uncovered by the sea, and sa
exaim nation of the ancient wreck disclosed
the tact that there was a passage for tcsscIi
into the harbor, at that time, which was noted
on the early English charts, but had been loit
from the later charts. In 1717 the aea washed
a passage across the cape between Orleans txiA
Eastham, but with much labor the inhabdtsnti
succeeded in filling it up.

[3*] Truho, Mass.— Settled 1700, at a part
of Cape Cod, where peninsula is narrow. Bay-
berries, a Irind of wax myrtle, grow abundantly,
and old-fashioned bayberry candles are made
from the sage-green wax by dipping, after
boiling. At North Truro, on the bay shore,
there is a modem cold storage plant where
thousands of barrels of fish are stored.
[4*] NosTH TauRo, Mass. — ^The bayberry,
which is abundant, is turned into the bay-
berry candles to burn at Christmas time, for
good luck. Nearby: Highland Light, one of
the first marine guides erected in U. S.
[5*] Pbovincstown, Mass. — Eliminating the
theory that Norsemen visited this point in 1006,
which has by some been set up as a fact, the
first visitors were probably a party under Cor-
tereal, 1501. Gosold explored the section,
1602, and John Smith 1614. The Pilgrims
sighted the tip of Cape Cod and anchored
Nov. 11, 1620, about three-qtiarters of a mile
from the shore, in Provincetown Harbor. The
Pilgrims waded ashore and, while the "May-
flower" was at anchor in the harbor, Peregrine
White was born on board, the first white child
officially bom in what afterward became New
England. The historic "compact" was drawn
while the "Mayflower" was at anchor and the
next move was the landing of Miles Standish
with sixteen men at Long Point. Some his-
torians have said these gentlemen proceeded
to rob graves as their first official act, but, of
course, there have been many writers preju-
diced against the Puritans. The place, pictur-
esque in its location and by reason of large
surrounding sand dunes, progressed immediately
into a fishing and whaling locality, and is one
of the most popular summer places upon the
Cape. Many artists are among the summer
colonists, and the local Art Association holds
an annual exhibition in the Town Hall. Pil-
grim monument (250 ft. high) stands on Town
Hill; corner stone was laid by Mr. Roosevelt,
and it was dedicated by Mr. Taft; said to be
tallest masonry tower in the country, except
Washington Monument, Washington. A curt-
0U8 industry is carried on by David C. Stull,
who buys all of the sperm from diseased
whales at the fabulous price of |500 a pound;
less than two tons have ever been collected,
and Mr. Stull has handled the greater part of
it. It is the basis of a rare perfume.
Cape Cod has been pictured as a fish hook
with Race Point representing the point and
Long Point the barb. West of Long Point is
Wood End Life Saving Station. There are
great sand dunes called "Provincelands," which
belong to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts.
These lands were once covered with trees, and
scientific forestry has been carried on by the
State of late years. Many of the early settlers
were lost in the sea, which naturally rages
about the tip of the Cape, and makes the fishing
business a hazardous one. The British fleet
used the harbor, 1812, and it was at Province-
town that the British man-of-war turned over
to the government Mason and Slidell during
the Civil War.

eventually developed one of the early American
shoemaking towns, and it is still an important

[3*] Eastram, Mass.— a Cape Cod town,
settled 1644, on site of Indian "Nawset"; first
white settlers, pilgrims under direction Thomas
Prince; early ministers of gospel received por-
tion of oil from whales washed ashore; Henry
Thoreau says: "One could see divines sitting
idly upon beach, waiting for salary to come in";
Nauact Lights on bluffs, with life ^ving sta-
tion below.
[4*] OmLiAas, Mass.— (Cape Cod.)— Settled
1750; of late years has acquired some notice
as a tax-dodgers' paradise. In five years the
valuation of property increased from $700,000
to $5,000,000, at a rate of $3.00 per thousand,
during which time many local improvements,
including good roads, were completed. Mill-
ionaires flocked there in an effort to establish
"legal residence." Some of them merely en-
gaged rooms in tents or lodging houses. Stam-
pede started by S. W. Winslow, a show
machinery manufacturer. Township consid-
erably cut up by the sea; on the east is Nauset
Beach, which reaches to Highland Light, a
distance of thirty miles; this beach takes in
Pleasant Bay, the largest body of enclosed
water on Cape Cod. A French cable makes a
landing at this point. There are three wind-
mills more than )50 years old. Captain John
Smith landed on the shores and left one of his
ships for some time, under the command of
Captain Hunt, who kidnapped a number of
Indians and sold them as slaves in Spain for
$100 each. About the time "of our Civil
War, the Sparrow Hawk, an English ship of
1620, was uncovered by the sea, and an
examination of the ancient wreck disclosed
the fact that there was a passage for vessels
into the harbor, at that time, which was noted
on the early English charts, but had been lost
from the later charts. In 1717 the sea washed
a passage across the cape between Orleans and
Eastham, but with much labor the inhabitants
succeeded in filling it up.
[5*] Bkewstek, Mass. — Settled 1860; on the
"ankle" of Cape Cod; a fishing village and
rendezvous of sea-captains, active and retired.
A collection of paintings, in the home of Capt.
Albert Crosby, may be seen. Joseph C. Lincoln,
author of "Partners of the Tide" and other
Cape Cod stories, was born in Brewster, which
boasts of the oldest windmill on the^ cape;
named for the elder Brewster, of the "May-,
flower."
[6*1 Dennis, Mass. — Indian name "Nobscus-
sett"; first a fishing and trading point, later
salt making center; famed for respectability of
inhabitants, including many retired sea cap-
tains. The Shivericks built fast sailing ves-
sels early date; wil9 cranberries grew in great
profusion in neighborhood, were cultivated
(1840); Indian legend regarding Scargo Lake,
says whimsical daughter of a chief desired a
fish pond; the women of her tribe scooped out
one with clam shells; the men filled the basin
with water and thus developed Scargo Lake.
[7*1 Yaemouth, Mass. — A typical Cape Cod
town, once a whaling, now a cod-fishing center.
During the Revolution works were established
for the distillation of ocean water and the
manufacture of salt. It is a popular summer
resort, and there are many Indian legends.
Near Swan's Pond was an ancient Indian
village, the burial ground of which may be
seen.

[5*] OKLMAnt, Mass.— (Cape Cod.)— Settled
1750; of late years has acquired some notice
as a tax-dodgers' paradise. In five years the
valuation of property increased from $700,001
to $5«000,000, at a rate of $3.00 per thonsand,
during which time many local improYementa
including good roads, were completed. Mill*
ionaires flocked there in an effort to estahlish
"legal residence." Some of them merely en*
gaged rooms in tents or lodging houses. Stam-
pede' started by S. W. Winslow, a show
machinery manufacturer. Township consid-
erably cut up by tiie sea; on the east is Nauset
Beach, which reaches to Highland light, a
distance of thirty miles; this beach take^ in
Pleasant Bay, the largest body of enclosed
water on Cape Cod. A French cable makes a
landing at this point. There are three wind-
mills more than 150 years old. Captain John
Smith landed on the ^ores and left one of his
ships for some time, under the command of
Captain Hunt, who kidnapped a number of
Indhms and sold them as slaves in Spain for
$100 each. About the time of our Civil
War, the Sparrow Hawk, an Engliah ahip of
1620, was uncovered by the sea, and an
examination of the ancient wreck disclosed
the fact that there was a passage for vessels
into the harbor, at tiiat time, which was noted
on the early English charts, but had been lost
from the later charts. In 1717 the sea washed
a passage acroas the cape between Orleans and
Eastham, but with much labor the inhabitants
•acceeded In filling it upi '
[6*] BaswtTBa, liasa.— SctUed 1860; on the
"ankle" of Cape Cod; a fishing village and
rendesvoua of sea-captains, active and retired.
A collection of paintings, in the home of Capt.
Albert Crosby, may be seen. Joseph C Lincoln,
author of Partners of the Tide" and other
Cape Cod itarioa, was ham In Brtwstsr, whieh
boasts of the oldest windmill on the cape;
named for the elder Brewster, of the "May-
flower."
[7*] Dbhhis, Mass. — Indian name "Nobscus-
sett"; first a fishing and trading point, later
salt making center; famed for respectability of
inhabitants, including many retired sea cap-
tains. The Shivericks built fast sailing ves-
sels early date; wild cranberries grew in great
profusion in neighborhood, were cultivated
(1840); Indian legend regarding Scargo Lake,
says whimsical daughter of a chief desired a
fish pond; the women of her tribe scooped out
one with clam shells; the men filled the basin
with water and thus developed Scargo Lake.
[8*] Yasmouth. Mass. — A typical Cape Cod
town, once a whaling, now a cod-fishing center.
During the Revolution works were established
for the distillation of ocean water and the
manufacture of salt. It is a popular summer
resort, and there are many Indian legends.
Near Swan's Pond was an ancient Indian
village, tiie burial ground of which may be
seen.
[9*] Babmstabli, Mass.— Settled 1639. It
is a pleasant, restful town with old houses
and the oldest bell in New England, cast
in 1665. Priscilla Mullens, to whom John
Alden carried Milea Standish's proposal, lived
there. Miles Standiah, surveyor by profession,
made original surveys of this part of Cape
Cod. Once had a considerable whaling fleet.
In the rear of the post-oflice a blue flag bearing
the word "Ship" waa displayed on a tall
flagpole. When a whaling ship was expected
captains, seamen, women and children gathered
to speculate which one it might be and the
value of the catch. James Otis, orator and
signer of ahe Dtclaration of Independence,
•nd Chief Justice Lemuel Shaw were natlvea.

Portsmouth, N. H.
PoBTSMOUTH, N. H. — Settled 163U; an im
portmnt United States Naval Station.
Biany of the colonial mansions are still oc-
cupied by the descendants of the pre-Revolu-
tionary merchant princes.
Thomas Bailey Aldrich, author of "The
Story of a Bad Boy/' was a native, and in hij
book he says that many of the first families
•f to-day do not care to trace their pedigree
back to the Matilda Jane and other pirate sea
rovers.
The city is built on a peninsula, formed by
an estuary which is sometimes called Piscatqua
River.
On the sea side of Market Square is the
oldest bank in the Unifed States.
The Atiienaeum is a private institution, but
visitors are admitted to the collection of rare
books and early documents.
In St. John's Church (1806), replacing
Queen's Chapel destroyed by fire, is a baptismal
font of porphyritic marble with brass covers,
brought to this country by an old sea captain,
1758, and presented to the church.
He purchased it for a jug of rum, and it is
probably the most valuable baptismal font in
the United States.
There is also in the church one of the four
"vinegar" Bibles of this country. The name
comes from the fact that the ancient printer
spelled vineyard, "vinegar," in the parable.
The bell in the tower was cast by Paul
Revere (1806) from 4>lunder brought from
Louisburg.
Tht Warner House (1712) was the ftra
house in the United States built of Dutch bricL
The walls are of Oriental frescoes, which fer
more than a century were covered by waS
paper, and only discovered by accident a fev
years ago.
On this hotue is a lightning rod set up by
Benjamin Franklin in 1762, and waa the be^
ginning of a lightning rod erase which swept
across the country and caused the destrcc-
tion of thousands of homes, showing that soa>«
of Benjamin's theories were decidedly off.
Thoma3 Bailey Aldrich was bom at 35 Conn
Street. Many of the scenes of his tmmeately
popular book can be traced.
The William Pitt Tavern stood at Court and
Atkinson Streets in 1770.
Washington was banquetted (1789) in tlic
(^vernor John Langden house on Pleasaat
Street.
Langden gave up all the rum in his cellar
to support the American cause, and would hare
signed the Declaration of Independence had
he not been busy building the ship "Ranger"
for John Paul Jones.
The Went worth was the dominant family to
Portsmouth during its early life, and there
are three Wentworth houses standing.
The site of the shipyard where the "Ranger"
was built is now a coal dock.
While Portsmouth was not settled until 16J0.
it was visited as early as 1603 by Martin Pring:
in 1605 by Champlain, and in 1614 by Capum
John Smith.

White Mountains-Brefton Woods, N. H.
Bimoif Woods, N. H. — A famous
summer resort; is tbc cbief route terminus,
thoun^ little more than • station with two mag-
nificent hotels— "The Mount Pleasant" and
*'The Mount Waahington"— separated by a
level valley laid out as a golf course — splendid
views from the porches of either hotel. There
arc many pleasant walks to the neighboring
streams and mountains. Mt Washington
(6293 ft), is the higfaert peak east of the
Rockies or north of the great raitges in the
Carolinas; it was venerated by Indians at
abode of the "Great Spirit"; Sachem Pasaa-
conaway chief of the Merrimacs, who lived
to be 120, was a Demi-God of the White Hills;
Darby Field, Irish soldier, the first white man
to ascend Mt. Washington (1642), accompanied
by two Indians, and in honor of whom Mount
Field is named; in his account of the trip. Field
spoke of the mountains as "The Chrystail
Hills." The Appalachian Mountain Qub, of
Boston, has marked many trails over these
peaks; "Appalachia," published by the club,
is a valuable guide to mountaui climbers. The
Federal government has acquired 260,000 acres
for a National Park; it is now proposed to
treble this area. A Cog road up Mt Wash-
ington, built 1869, has maximum grade of
2000 ft to the mile; "Tip Top House" is
chained to the rocks; the view, when the
clouds are not below the peaks, covers five
States and reaches into the Province of Que-
bec. Three miles to the squth lies Crawford
House, which faces a small lake, the source of
the Saco River, flowing south through the fa-
mous Crawford Notch, named for an early
settler; monument near the Mount Washington
House. The old Notch House at the gate of
the Notch was burned in 1856. On the right
is Mount Tom Crawford, named for the pro-
prietor of the old Notch House. Beyond is
Mount Willey (4261 ft), famous for the ava-
lanche which destroyed the Willey family in
1826. From the front of the Crawford is a
fine view of the narrowest part of the pass, the
cliff on the left being called "Elephant's Head"
(view). The elevation at the summit of the
pass is 1920 feet, and here divide the waters
of Long Island Sound and the Gulf of Maine.
The first road through th^ pass was built
in 1803, and in the succeeding years has been
greatly improved, but a much better view of
the mountains and the Notch can be had from
the train than by auto. Among the interesting
points around the Notch are the Pulpit, the
Dismal Pool, the Flume and Silver Cascades,
and the Devil's Den. Farther down the valley
i< Bemis, on Nancy's Brook, named for a girl
who followed her nmaway lover down the
Notch and perished in the snow by the brook.
The stone cottage on the right was built by
Dr. Bemis, an erratic Boston dentist, who
willed it to the man who had taken care of
him and his property.
MoimT Wasringtom, N. H.— Most
widely advertised of peaks in Presidential
Kange; a road runs to the top from Glen
Cottage, on east side of mountain; distance
right miles, rise 4600 feet, at average grade
of 16%. The "Climb ta the Clouds," as it is
called, ia taken by some visitors. There are
several rises of 20% before the Half- Way
House is reached. At four miles the timber
line is passed. The grades from this point
are not difficult, but careful driving is neces- '
sary. If the day is clear, and the clouds are
hanging higher than the mountain top, the
view is practically a map of upper New Eng-
land. Cars are allowed to nuJce the ascent
every day in the week after July 1st, toll $4
for nuichines less than twenty horse power, $5
for machines of greater horse power and a
charge of eighty cento for each passenger. The
road is owned by Libby & Sons, lumbermen,
of Gorham, New Hampshire, and even at the
charge is not a money making investment.
Intervale snd the Conways are beautifully
situated in the widening valley of the Saco and
are favorite reaorta for those who wish to
combine the restfulness of the valley with the
inspiring view of the majestic Presidential
Range. Pleasant walka may be taken to Echo
Lake at the foot of White Mountain ledge,
Diana's Baths, Mount Kearsarge (Pequawket —
3,270 feet) command a fine view. Returning
up the valley, we may turn right to Jackson,
situated in one of the most picturesque of the
lesser groups of mountains, where are many
fine walks and drives. Continuing north on
the course of the proposed trunk line highway
north along the Ellis River, we ascend Pink-
ham Noteh, recently improved and made a
State road. Glen House, built on the site of
the more pretentious hotel destroyed by fire in
1894, is the starting point for the ascent of
Mount Washington by carriage road — a aplen-
did piece of engineering, ascending with aver-
age grades of 600 feet to the mile.
Descending the Peabody eight miles we eome
to* Gorham, on the Androscoggin, a restful and
beautiful town of about 2,500 inhabitanta, 800
feet above sea level, the nearest village to the
summit of Mount Washington, and long known
as the ''gateway" to the mountain region. For
many seasons it was the summer home of the
Rev. Thomas Starr King, author of "The
White Hilla." It is the favorite headquarters
of the constantly increasing army of mountain
climbers. Ita Alpine surroundings, pure water
and invigorating atmosphere render it an ideal
resort
At Randolph is a fine view of Mount Adams
(5,805 feet) on the left, and here is the be-
ginning of one of the easiest and shortest
trails to the summit of Presidential Range.
Jefferson, on a spur of the Starr King Moun-
tain (3,919 feet), boasta of a splendid hotel,
and the views of the mountains across the val-
ley are very fine. There is a path to the sum-
mit of Mount Starr King, and other pleasant
walks and drives invite the tourist. Lancaster
and Whitefield are on the northern outoldrto of
the White Mountains, and command splendid
views. Bethlehem, on an elevated plateau,
reached by a long climb from the river, is a
picturesque village at the foot of Mount
Agassix (2,394 feet)— view tower 2Sc Maple-
wood, two miles east, is also a popular tourist
center. See the famous Casino and hillside
golf course. Here roads diverge for White-
field and Franconia. Perhaps the best views
of the Presidential Range may be obtained from
the summit of Ore Hill, near Sugar HiU Vil-
lage.
«
The Profile House at the north end of Fran-
conia Notch is, in the opinion of many, located
in the most picturesque spot in the mountains.
It is the terminus of the narrow-gauge rail-
way which runs frdm Bethlehem Junction. Ris-
ing sheer on the south is Mount Cannon or
Profile Mountain (4107 feet). Opposite frown-
ingly stands E^le Cliff, the awesome bluff
which fronta Echo Lake and gives the famous
echoes. A steep path leads to the top of
Mount Cannon — view. Profile Ledges afford
the best point of view; seen from the road,
these ledges form the profile of the "Old Man
of the Mountain," mentioned in Hawthorne's
"Great Stone Face." Below the Profile House
the road runs through a narrow valley to the
Flume House, at the base of Mount Pemigewas-
set (2,563 feet). A half-mile to the east is
the flume, a rocky gorge 700 feet long and 70
feet high.

Bromley Mountain was cut by the New Hm^
shire soldiers, 1777, on their way to join tif
Green Mountain -Boys at Betiningtoa I<
later became a toll road and is the only oa(
in the State. The legislature has been xaahk
to break the charter, probably because it cos
tains the unique statement that the compao!
shall have control of the road "as long ai «m^
grows and water runs." The toll it SO cents
and the grades must be negotiated essily. >*
there are hundreds of water breakers, «bi^

hire soldten^ 1777, on tlieir way to join the
ireen Mountain Boys at Bennington. It
Iter became a toll road and is the only one
n the State. The legislature has been un-
ble to break the charter probably because it
contains the unique statement that the com-
pany shall have control of the road "as long
as wood grows and water runs." The toll i»
50 ceBt% and the grades vtift he negotiated
easily, as there are hundreds of water breakers,
which break mart firings than rain water. On

[!•] Pbhu, Vt.— a quaint village at the base
of Bromley Mountain; a large part of this sec-

as a State forest reserve. The road over
Bromley Mountain was cut by the New Hamp-
shire soldiers, 1777, on their way to join the
Green Mountain Boys at Bennington. It
later became a toll road and is the only one
in the State. The legislature has htea un-
able to break the charter probably because it
contains the unique statement that the com*
pany shall have control of the road "as long
as wood grows and water runs." The toll
is 50 cents, and the grades must be nego-
tiated easily, as there are hundreds of water
breakers, which break more springs thao rt:r
water. On the west of the siunmit is Vattenhi'
Valley and Mt Equinox (3816 ft.), with i
view of Manchester spread along the lovlaa^i

The Tavern
Sl Albans, Ft,
I The fame of THE
TAVERN is builded
upon its character as
' a hotel of quiet refine-
ment and elegance.
Practically every part
of it is fashioned upon
ne\t ideas in hotel de-
velopment and CCTi-
struction. Its really
unique features — in-
novations in hotel equipment and design — appeal to guests of every
taste. THE TAVERN is dt^frcnf/y different from any other
hotel in America. In a quiet country tovvii, it is a model hostelry,
completely equipped with rooms en suite, baths, long distance tele-
phones, roof garden, elevator service, fireplaces, grill, private
dining rooms, Japanese nookery, broad piazzas and many dainty
cozies which please and delight the tourist.
THE TAVERN cuisine is distinctive. The service is enjoyable.
The welcome is contagious. Contentment is spelled in every nooky
comer of a house beautiful — Colonial in design, homelike in appoint-
ments, Blue-booky in service.
THE TAVERN fronts a large park, beautifully illuminated at
night and famous throughout New England. The rates are dis-
tinctly normal, moderate and always to the satisfaction of the guest.
In fact, THE TAVERN is a quite correct hotel. If within a day's
ride, why not?

Pilot Road Maps of New England
Explanation
Reference to the Key Map on the next page will show the plan of
i3al>eriiig the sectional plates, which are arranged in numerical order.
addition to the number, each plate bears the name of the most prom*
int place in the district covered by that section.
Tlie ivliite-faced letters and figures on the margins of the plates are
r indeiung and for assisting in following routes across from one
cation to another*
Tlie figures at the comers give the numbers of the adjoining sections.
B very public highway, outside of streets in cities and very congested
stricts, is represented on the Maps.
BEST AUTO ROADS are shown by the heavy black lines, and
ivarial>ly represent the most desirable roads connecting the larger
snters and popular resorts. Complete running directions for most of
\ese roads may be found in the text pages of this volume.
XOURABLE ROADSy or secondary roads, are shown by parallel
\.iies, and are considered suitable for automobile traveling, though as
. rule not so good as. the regular routes. These roads can be used in
(Yakin^ cross-cuts to out-of-the-way places, as detours in case of wash-
>uts» accidents or repairs on the highways, or for the sake of variety
!rom the generally traveled routes.
UNREPORTED ROADS, or poor roads, are shown by a single line,
and are not considered suitable for automobile travel. No attempt has
been made to show changes in grade on these roads or the character of
railroad crossings affecting them.
In following routes from one sectional plate to an adjoining section
the directions on the margins will be of assistance, but care should be
taken to observe the exact point at which the line leaves the margin,
with relation to the white-face letters and figures, so that it may be
picked up at the corresponding point on the adjoining section.
These sections represent approximately 56,100 square miles, and it
is estimated that there are 106,000 miles of public roads in the territory.
STREET MAPS of all the principal cities and larger towns are
shown in the text pages of this volume (index pages 9 to 56), and
£rive by name the best streets on which to pass through these congested
districts.
AN INDEX of Cities, Towns, Vilages and Railroad Stations will be
found on pages 1202 et seq., with full directions for finding them.
THE PILOT ROAD MAPS are compiled from United States Govern-
ment surveys, official state, county and city surveys, and original
sources. Acknowledgment is made of valuable assistance rendered by
the Government and various State Engineers, Highway Commissioners,
and literally thousands of individuals and Automobilists who have been
consulted.

"The section having to do with headlieht regulation waa so amended as to
require that no device dependent upon the will of the operator comt^es with
the law. This amendment was inspired by the fact that many autotsts woaM
use a system of headlights whereby the driver from the seat oould throw on
the small lights in the city and use the big lights on the country roads. This
is no longer legal unless when the driver aims to use his big Ughts the aame

CUSTOMS REGULATIONS, DOMINION OF CANADA
American Tourists Exempt for 30 days
Under a recent ^ruling, the Canadian Customs Department now permits American
automobilists to tour (for pleasure purposes only) in the Dominion of Canada for a
period of 30 days by simply applying to the Collector at the frontier port for a permit;
it is, therefore, no longer necessary to obtain a Customs bond If the stay does not
exceed this period.
For a stay of more than 30 days but not exceeding six months, it is necessary in
order to avoid payment of the duty to secure a bond for double the estimated duties,
based on appraisement of the car by. the Customs officer, said bond to be guaranteea
by two Canadian citizens approved by the Collector of Customs. Also, a deposit of
twenty-five dollars, which is returned upon the exportation of the car. To avoid the
tiresome formalities of bonding, etc., automobilists may avail themselves of the special
arrangement which a number of Customs Brokers have with the Dominion authorities,
whereby they are able to furnish bonds and customs touring permit for a fee of five
dollars, no cash deposit being required. This permit can be noailed to the home of the
intended tourist, and is good for crossing into Canada at any pohit on the frontier
without formality and also for re-entry into the United States at the same or any
other port of exit.
