Stockton correspondent makes
the following good suggestion:
With the increased use Of the bicy-
Gle, the demand for good roads is
steadily increasing, but as the general
public, particularly in Hunterdon
county, seems unwilling TO improve the
condition Of the public roads for the
benefit of wheelmen alone, cycle
path construction seems the only
solution of the problem. The Good
Roads Association Of Lnmbcrtyillc,
has already done good work in TINT
direction and no doubt but for lack Of
sufficient funds, would have done
much more. Here is plan by which
the necessary funds can be raised
When friend desires to borrow Your
wheel, loan il to him with the under
standing that fair price for its use
shall be paid into the Good Roads As
soeiation, to he used for cycle path
construction. If the whcclmcn Of
Lambertyille and vicinity would adopt
this plan, the Good Roads Association
would soon be in position 10 greatly
extend its work.

THE ARTISTS STORY.

the frieze was made by one who was

that was given to me To go by when I

was allowed to make alterations in
details as | saw fit. but was not permit
ted to make any important changes. IL
has often been enormously said that l
worked from Brumidi's drawings. but
by comparing the tracing with the
photos Of my drawings IL will be seen
how little assistance, aside from the
idea of the subjects, | got from the
tracing. Upon the execution of the sub
jects upon the freZe il was found that
il did not fill the entire belt. and a space
about so feet in length still remains un-
finished. When | was given the sub
jects, | remarked in surprise that there
was no representation of Americas
greatest hero. George Washington. but
was informed that the subjects had all
been selected and approved by congress.
Like the other subjects, the final ones
must he selected by the joint commit
tee on library and submitted to congress
for approval.
i cannot give an accurate period of
time ( worked on the frieZe. as did not
work steadily and ] seldom worked ev-
cry day in a month. Sometimes several
months passed without my working
day. But l can say that | commenced
