ments are literally patronized and
greatly enjoyed as affording relief
from the monotony of life here. and
while discipline is somewhat rigid
necessarily so-it is tempered with
consideration and great kindness, di-
rectly attributable TO the broad exper-

tive ability of the corps of officers, in
whose care and keeping are the ma

President Melvin, in speaking of
the matter of high cost for county
roads with very poor returns for the
investment, said:
THAT there is feeling abroad in
Anne Arundel county that altogether
too much money is spent on roads for
the amount of work done. Ii costs
the taxpayers of our county more than
four times as much per mile to keep
our roads and small bridges in repair
as it does Caroline county. We have
52I miles of roads that costs approx
mately $40, 600 a year, while Caroline
county has nearly 600 miles that cost
approximately $40, 600 year he
said there is no subject more import
ant for investigation than this, and he
suggested that the next meeting two
weeks from today March 2i) be held
for the special consideration Of the
road question At that meeting the
subject may be fully discussed and
remedial measures proposed.
There were two OF three other speak
ers, but no important matters coming
