MAIN STREET HUMS
WITH NEW TRAFFIC

Main street is humming with traffic inbound or returning from the various locations on the Divide where there is a flow of all kinds of material in the shape of building stuff, machinery, drums of oil and gasoline, timbering and groceries.

While there are numerous animal teams the bulk of the traffic is carried on motor trucks which find all they can do in taking care of the big freighting movement resulting from the rapidly developing activity on the Divide and several contiguous camps. The open weather of the past two weeks has accelerated the freighting movement in the direction of Belmont and Bellehelen.
