Tourists Are Flocking to the
Land of Ten Thousand Lakes
la escape the sweltering days of
August in the east and south, tourists
and vacationists are making pilgrim
age to Minnesota's 10,000 lakes terri
tory, where nature has provided rest
and recreation for lie weary and
health for the ailing. The claim is
mads that there are 10,000 lakes in
Minnesota, and the most conservative
say that another thousand or two
would not be a misstatement.
The state highway commission,
local road boards and counties, aided
by the federal authorities, have com
bined to. put Minnesota in the first
rank or states having auto roads that
can be traveled with comfort and
safety. That the fame of these good
roads is spreading is evidenced by
the great increase in auto travel
from far points.
