ing with the subject and the attitude
of the press toward the movement The
state laws should be gone over, and
carefully studied where efficient and
successful systems are established.
Visits to permanently good and hab-
itually poor roads should be made and
the causes that have led to the differ
ent results should be discussed and
identified. Road conventions and other
meetings az which papers on road
building and maintenance are read and
discussed should be attended. Some
good work on the subject should be
used as general guide, and this should
be supplemented by studies on special
topics, essays and discussions. drawing
upon all possible sources of informa-
ton and constantly observing roads
and streets in process of construction
and under traffic.

ments in the state having any interest
in the cause. Every instructor
in civil engineering having in imme-
diate charge this line of work should
be strong political factor in this
cause which has already done so much
for the material advancement of the
world. Correct notions on the admin
istrative side of road building are sad
ly deficient in many states. By exer-
cising the power to which his position

PROF. HOAG'S IDEAS.
Minnesota Instructor on What q
Course in Practical Road Con-
structiOn Should Comprise.

In recent paper on highway en-
cheering, Prof w. r. Hoag, of the
University OF Minnesota, offered some
suggestions en- the subject of instruc-
ton in road building, based on his ex-
perience as instructor and engineer.
To begin, the students should be
brought into sympathy with the sub
ject by developing an interest in it, and
to that end a few lectures on the his
torical development of highway con-
struction are useful. These can be fol-
lowed by an equal number on trans
portation in general, with special refer
ence to the part played by the COM
mon road. The subject is thus shown
to be broad one, far-reaching in it's
scope, and not merely relatively mar
row one of grading, draining and stone
laying.
All the forces at work for the better
ment of the highways should then be
considered, beginning with the ma
tional Office of road inquiry. national
road association, state associations,
