Auto And
The Horse
SAM JOHNSON TELLS WHERE
EACH WOULD FIT WELL INTO
HIS wORK-THE COMBINATION.

Sam Johnson Road Supervisor, says
that the automobile proved it's value for
such service as he needs it for, under
certain conditions. In all the level re-
glons of his bailiwick, wherever there
are good roads, it is infinitely superior
to horses. He could do in an hours
time with the auto what it would take
half a day to do with horse.
But where roads are muddy, and
where they are excessively steep, and in
the approaches to many quarries, and
many other places where he has men
at work, it would not do at ALL For
instance, he sometimes has men at
work on Tantalus, and to go to where
they work in an auto is impracticable
There are indeed some places he has to
go in supervising the road work of the
county where he cannot even drive a
horse and buggy, but must go on foot
or horse back.
His idea is that an automobile for the
bulk of the work and one horse for the
portions of the work where an auto
mobile is not suitable is the best solu-
ton of the question, instead OF the
three horses that it now takes to enable
him to get over his work. But the SUI
pervisors couldn't see it that way; they
thought it should either be an automo-
bile or horses for all the work, and I'M
der that decision there was no ques-
tion-it was the horse.
johnson begins his day early. Half
past four o'clock in the morning often
sees him out at work. He has to SUI
pervise not only the road work, but the
garbage department and work begins
early in both departments, and before
work can begin the teams employed
have to be fed and harnessed and the
equipment looked after.

II want to tell you about a mishap

HE boarded one of our Hartford

eyes fixed on his newspaper, and close
on to the end of his journey, looked up
and spied one Of his students crump-
led in corner.
THE student was In wretched
plight. His clothing was stained, his
linen soiled, his hair unbrushed. HIS
face was pallid. and his eyes were
bloodshot and dull. He looked i'll; he
looked a wreck; and it was easy to see
what the trouble was.
Or Luther, fresh and vigorous from
his bath and good breakfast. arose to
get off. AS he passed the unclean stu

African Lakes Vanish.

In 1859, some distance southeast OF
Lake Nyassa, in Central Africa, Llv-
ingstone discovered Lake Shirwa,
body of water about thirty miles long
and fifteen miles wide, which has now
entirely disappeared with the excep-
ton of few ponds in its bed. Lake
Nyami, discovered by Livingstone at
the same time, has also disappeared.
The cause of the change appears to be
a gradual drying up Of bodies of water
in Central Africa. AS marking the re-
suits Of a single half century the
changes named with no doubt others
equally important, but not recorded)
show a rapidity of mutation in those
inland waters not equaled elsewhere in
the contemporary geographer's survey.
