Huebinger's map and guide for Omaha-Denver transcontinental route; . ation as that which is behind this road makes forbetter acquaintance and more complete understanding on the part ofthe committees along the line, one with another. The good roads meet-ing is also bringing together in a friendly way a large nun>ber of prom-inent men of many communities, all of them interested in this practicaland constructive work of making better roads. It is believed that this map and guide, which has been prepared atthe request and under the direction of the Omaha-Denver-Trans-Conti-nental Route Association, will do as much as any other one thing tobring the road to the attention of those who will make use of it. Tour-ing to the West is getting to be a common recreation in the East, andDenver is naturally an objective point. This is, of course, the road totake for Denver, no matter how one has reached Omaha or Lincolnfrom the East. There is only one great road across Nebraska and thisig it. There are half a dozen competing roads across Iowa from riverto river. 10. The Start and Ibinish. / From the point of view of the Publishing Company which issuedthis book, the task has been a most pleasurable one, according to itsofficers, one of whom, Mr. H. Huebinger, the head of the Tech-nical Department of the Iowa Publishing Company, made thetrip. The enthusiasm of the promoters of the road and ofthe people along the line was infectious and Mr. Huebinger and his assist-ants returned to their work rooms with the desire to get out, if pos-sible, a better booklet than had ever been attempted before. There isreason to think that they have succeeded. There is no doubt that what has been done in 1911 on this roadand in the preparation of this guide book is but an earnest of what isto come. A great permanent road is some day to stretch away acrossNebraska and into Colorado, along this route, and it will not take muchwork and money to put the present road in iust such condition.
