Enrollment urged for National Old Trails Road at Lexington
Judge J M Lowe and Col Dell Potter led a mass meeting at the courthouse six weeks ago urging 3000 members to enroll in the National Old Trails Road Association. Members would pay 50 cents to the national group and 50 cents to the Lexington unit. Women in Lexington are distributing roster books to solicit memberships as the association promotes state and federal recognition for the highway. The national body, based in the Midland Building in Kansas City, publishes maps and coordinates efforts with officers and directors locally.
