Small Town Is
Tourist Lure
Travelers who specialize in seek-
ing out quiet and attractive little-
known villages will find dozens of
them among the hills of Pennsyl-
vania.
A half hour stroll beyond Main
Street and off of the well-trod path
of an unknown village might well
turn out to be the highlight of a
tourist's total trip, says the Penn-
sylvania Department of Commerce.
Now nationally known are many
Pennsylvania Dutch villages—New
Holland, Intercourse, Blue Ball, Bird-
more small towns than any other
state. It has a town called Paradise
and another named Panic.
Far to the north of the Dutch
Country are the typically New Eng-
land towns of the North Tier coun-
ties ' - Towanda, Mansfield, Troy,
‘Wellsboro, Coudersport, Port Alle-
gany, Smethport, Bradford and War-
ren. These towns combine New Eng-
land influence with Pennsylvania
Dutch and mountain heritage - an
American combination to say the
least. 7
Attractive communities, each with
its own flavor, along the Susquehan-
na River, are Lock Haven, Clearfield,
Bloomsburg, Sunbury, Lewisburg,
Williamsport, Wyalusing, Towanda
and Muncy.
Along the Alleghany are Tidioute,
gany, Coudersport (near its source),
and Warren. The southwestern sec-
tion has quaint Bedford, Ohiopyle,
Perryopolis (a miniature Washing-
ton, D. C.) and Waynesburg.
The Delaware’s most famous vil-
lage is New Hope. Just a short drive
north is Port Pleasant, a delight-
fully - sereno and quiet ‘hamlet
perched on the river bank. North
of Delaware Water Gap are Ding-
man’s Ferry, Bushkill and Milford,
all with a Pocona flavor.

Peaches, Quarterhorse broodmare at the Pennsylvania State
University Agricultural Experiment Station, attained a remarkable
record when she gave birth to live twin foals last year. Twins
occur rarely in horses and live twins perhaps once in 20,000 foals.
More oddly, Peaches again carried twins last winter, but unfortu--
nately the foals were born dead. How often a mare carries twin
foals twice in her lifetime is unknown but the occurrence is rare,
says T. L. Merritt, associate professor of animal husbandry. The
twin fillies of last year, Miss Chief at the left in the picture and
Miss Sorrel behind her, now healthy yearlings, attract the attention
—A milestone in the history and
progress of Pennsylvania and United
States highways will be reached
with the completion of the Penn-
Can Highway, a 90-mile superhigh-
way in northeastern Pennsylvania.
Extending from the New York
State line about 14 miless south of
Binghamton, to the Delaware Water
Gap near Stroudsburg in Pennsyl-
vania, the four-lane, limited access
freeway will provide highway divi-
dends, particularly for motorists in
the northeastern section of the
state.
The vacationing family, the bus
driver, the commuting suburbanite,
the farmer delivering ‘his produce
to market — each will find a
variety of advantages in the safe,
convenient route provided by the
Penn-Can.
Incorporating the most modern
features of highway design and
construction, the Penn-Can will
eventually replace U. S. Route 11
and 611. Much of U. S. 11 is
hazardous and winding, and some
portions are as narow as 20 feet.
To date, some 40 miles of the
expressway are in use in Pennsyl-
vania. A 32-mile section between
the New York State line and State
Route 107 in Lackawanna County
was opened to traffic August 17.
A three-mile section of the Scran-
ton Bypass between North Scranton
and the O'Neill Highway is com-
pleted, and the adjoining section at
Dunmore may be opened to traffic
this fall. South of Stroudsburg, a
three-mile portion of the road is
open to traffic. 4
The Penn-Can is part of the Na-
tional System of Interstate and De-
fense Highways, 41,000 miles of
modern roads which, when com-
pleted, will provide direct connec-
tions between practically all major
U.S. cities. ]
The Penn-Can’ is composed of
portions of Interstate Routes 81,
81-S, and 80. Tt eventually will
connect. New York City and the
Canadian border, passing through
northeastern Pennsylvania and
northern New Jersey. In New York,
Interstate 81 is known as the
Empire Stateway. y
The Penn-Can in [Pennsylvania
will pay 90 per cent and the state
will cost an estimated $90,000,000
of which the Federal Government
will pay ten percent.
Most important to the motorist
are the safety factors incorporated
in the Penn-Can. According to the
American Association of State High-
way Officials, the traveling Amer-
ican is two and one-half times safer
from death, injury, and accidents on
fully limited access roads such as
the Penn-Can than on comparable
highways without access control,
such as present U, S. 11.
The Penn-Can, typical of highways
being built under the National sys-
| tem, will have two 24 feet wide
| lanes, separated by a 60 foot wide
earth divider, widest on the present
Pennsylvania highway system.
The 60 feet lane divider and
| split level lames — that is, lanes
| constructed on different levels, de-
| pending on land contours — provide
an added safety feature by reduc-
| ing the possibility of “highway hyp-
nosis” and lessening the blinding
| effects of headlights of oncoming
| traffic. Split level lanes provide vari-
| ation of scenery for the motorist. The
| 60 feet. wide lane divider helps re-
| [duce head-on crashes.
. Limited access control on the
| porn: Can insures safer accommod-
| ation of greater volumes of traffic
| and allows higher rates of speed.
| Limited access eliminates the dan
State Expects Dividends
From Penn-Can Highway
ger of unnecessary stops, slowing
down, and surprise entrance and
exit.
Better transportation encourages
commercial and industrial expan-
sion. The Penn-Can will help to stim=
ulate the economic condition of the
state by encouraging new industry
to expand into northeastern Penn-
sylvania. :
Tourism, another industry on the
rise in the state, will also be aided
