GRAVEL MADE ROADS
Highway Engineer Shows Why
They Are Easily Built.
ROADBED MUST BE KEPT DRY.
Surface Should Be So Shaped That
Water Will Run Off and Not Pene-
trate-Value Of Underdrains, Side
bitches and Rolling.

At meeting of the Missouri High
way Engineers association. held at
Jefferson City. +. P. Spalding of Co
luInbia, Mo-, read a paper on gravel
roads and said in part:
Gravel or broken stone when used
for a road is intended to form hard
surface. which will resist the wear
OF the traffic and which will shed the
water without softening in rainy
weather or when snow Is melting.
The gravel, or macadam. is not in
itself rigid structure. bat depends
to carry the loads which come upon
it. The object Of the gravel is to make
the surface harder and more resistant
to wear and the action of water than
the earth surface that 1t replaces, and
1t can only be effective when the road
below it is properly shaped and drain
ed and when the surface has such
form as to cause the water which
falls upon it to quickly run off with
out penetrating the road.
Filling mudholes with gravel Is not
making a gravel road. This Is only
wasting good material. l can recall Il
mudhoe into which gravel was regu-
larly dumped every spring for years.
and each time when the ground thaw-
ed out in the following spring the mud
was again on top and ready to swal-
low another dose Of gravel. Probably
there is enough gravel In that hole
200 or 300 feet long. to make a mile
Of good gravel road. Finally n road

BAD ROAD THAT GRAVEL WOULD IMPROVE.
supervisor came along. who put in n
few hundred feet of tile and crowned
the road surface, and there has been
no mudhole there since.
The form which should be given to
an earth rOadbed and the methods of
drainage to be used depend in each in
stance upon the local conditions sur
rounding the road. The ability of earth
to sustain load depends in large
measure upon the amount of water
contained by it. Most earth forms a
good foundation so long as 1t is kept
dry. but when wet it loses its sustain
ing power, becoming wet and incoher-
emit When softened by water soil Is
easily displaced by the settling of the
road or forced upward into any space
that may exist in it. In order. there.
fore, that the loads may be uniformly
sustained and the surface Of the road
kept firm and even it is Of first impor
lance that the roadbed be kept dry.
The improvement and maintenance Of
road are therefore largely questions
of drainage, the objects being to pre-
vent water from reaching the road and
to provide means for Immediately re-
moving such as does reach it before
the soil becomes saturated and sof-
tened.
Surface drainage Is always necessary
If the body of the road is to be kept
in dry condition and IS accomplished
by having the surface of such form
that water falling upon it will quickly
run into the cutters. Undcrdrains viii
not drain water from the surface of a
road. and unless the crown IS at all
times maintained and the surface kent
smooth water is likely to stand upon
And this is just as true of II gravel o.
stone road as Of the earth surface.
At the side of the road longitudinal
bitches must be provided for the pur-
pose of carrying the water drained
from the surface of the road to some
point where it may be turned into a
natural drainage channel. In many in
stances these side bitches also carry
drainage from land adjacent to the
road. The size and form OF the gut
tiers will naturally depend upon the
quantity Of water to be carried and
the slope of the cutters. Where the
quantity Of water to be carried is
small the extension Of the slope Of the
road surface may be sufficient without
any special gutter being provided.
In forming roadbcd upon which to
place a gravel or macadam surface the
earth roadbed should he made as firm
and smooth as possible before thc
placing Of the surfacing material
Wherever possible the earth after be-
ing brought to grade ard given the
proper form for receiving the surface
should be rolled with a heavy roller
until it is firmly packed and able to
yield efficient support TO the surface.
In any case the surface should not be
placed until the roadhed is thoroughly
settled and packed in place.

His Sermon on Subject
of MelchisedeCk

Rev. W. D. Dew preached at Owen
Church Sunday morning and night to
good congregations His theme Sun
day night was ON 'Melchisedeck and
his Priesthood, DR.. Dew having been
especially requested by citizen of the
town to speak on the subject. He
went into thorough discussion of the
matter, giving all biblical authority
regarding the subject, and explaining
clearly the exact nature of the appar-
ent enigma in words regarding that
parsonage. DIR. Dew declared that it
was no mystery as to who he was, but
that he was an ordinary man who was
called to the priesthood, whose genoa
logy had not been recorded any more
than that of many other notable men
of those days, hence the peculiar state
ment regarding him. In other words
that he was q man, but that there was
no record of his birth, parentage or
death, any more than numbers of 9TH
er great men, and that the scriptural
writer did not mean to say that Mel
chesedeck had none of these qualities,
which were denied by the emphatic
statement that 'he was man." DR..
Dew's discourse was heard with great
attention by large congregation.

Are You
Sick?

Much sickness is due to
a weak nervous system.
Yours may be. If it is,
you cannot get well until
you restore nerve strength
Your nervous system is
natures power house; the
organs of your body get
their power from it. If
the power is not there, the
action of the organs is
weak, and disease (sick-
ness) follows. DR.. Miles
Nervine cures the sick
because it soothes the
irritated and tired nerves
and gives the system a
chance to recupcrate.

No Compromise.

One of the commands given to
Israel in the desert was: "Ye shall
make no league with the inhabi-
tants of this land" The Divine
policy was wise. 1t was calcula-
ted to keep the nation from sin
particularly from the sin of idola-
try. To compromise with the
Canaanites was to tolerate their
affairs and groves and idolatrous
worship; to expose themselves and
their children to the temptations
of this worship.
The Divine policy as to the
treatment of sin, is the same in
every age. The God of Adam,
Abraham, Israel and the Church
of our dispensation is one God.
He can not look upon sin with the
least degree of allowance. He
makes no compromise with it.
He says to his Church, as to the
chosen nations of old, eye shall
make no league with the inhabi-
tants Of the 'land'." Men come
as the men of Gideon came to
Joshua. They say: "We have
heard of the fame of the Lord thy
God; now make a league with US.
We believe in religion, but you
are too strict. We would join you
and cooperate, but you must yield
a little. These old doctrines are
too severe. The Church would
gain friends" they tell US, Shy
softening its tone on the Sabbath
question, or on temperance"
have no doubt Of it. There are
many who would make a league
with the Church, and put theil
names on her rolls, if she woulc
yield a little. The worshipers Q.
Baal were glad to sign a league
which allowed them to keep thei
affairs. So there are worshipers Q
mammon who would be in tn,
Church If her requirements wer'
less exacting. But does it follow
that the Church would gain b.
compromise? The Bible and his
tory and common sense say, No

jews we're d peculiar and separat

A Word To Young Men.

Young man, did you ever ask
yourself why there are so many
people in the world unemployed,
and why so many ill a drunkard's
grave? There is employment, for
the entire world, yes, honorable
employment, yet we often see
young men of abilities, physical
and mental, %loafng around, lolling
away the springtime of their life
in utter worthlessness. However
true it may be that country is
controlled by our superiors, and
though positions of honor and use
fullness are at present beyond
your grasp, the grandness OF your
future rests upon you. The world
was not made in one day. Meth
err can you make your fortune nor
gain a reputation in one day.
Bide your time and persevere.
Perseverance and energy will be
sure to lead to success.
If in your power, by all means
choose a profession, and it will
honor you. Work is nc dishonor
and ~laziness is no credit to anyone.
1t is good to have wages, but half
pay is better than idleness and
vice. There is a greater demand
for young men now than ever be-
fore-true, honest, young men,
sound from center to circumfer-
ence, and whose consciences are
as steady as the needle 10 the pole.
Men who know their positions and
fill them. Young men, not too
lazy to work, not too proud to be
poor, who are willing to eat what
they have earned and paid for!
Talent is a good thing, and ii
you have it, improve it, but if you
have not, then make the best use
of what you have. Education is
worth more than gold. Be indie
pendent as far as you are able
Live Tor something and for your
self-it is too expensive to hire
others to do your thinking and lei
your machine decay with rust
Attend to your own business, ano
be sure to let other peoples alone,
Have but few conidants--the few
or the better-and always be true
to your friends. Fear not your
enemies, and remember that you.
character can not be materially in
jured, except by your own acts.
Young man, cut this out; paste
it in your album for future refer
erence. Do good and leave behint
you a monument of virtue tina
storms of time can not destroy
Write your name by kindness ant
love, on the hearts of the thou
sands with whom you associate
and you may rest assured tina
your life will be a succes.-Selectec

When Sister Shaw was young

and for more than fifty years she
was humble christian and faith
full follower of Jesus and loyal
member of the church of her choice.
after living for almost sixty years
in the neighborhood where she was
born, the family removed some
seven years since, to this commun.
ity, Her name was transferred to
this church. Sister Scholl's pass
ing was so sudden and unexbe ted
as to shock the whole community
and awaken universal sympathy
for the stricken family. For him
whose heart trusted in this woman
so fully and so long, and who
shared together the joys and sor-
rows, the tolls and cares of more
than 40 years of married life,
there is heartfelt sorrow and earn
est prayers that the God Of all com
fort may be his support and solace
in this, the supreme sorrow of his
Lille, and these worthy sons and
daughters have been richly blessed
of heaven in having good, kind,
devoted mother and her memory
will be heritage of peace and
blessing to them and their children
after them.
We earnestly hope that the sons
and daughters have long since
found their mothers Christ, and
that they will impress upon their
children her blessed example in her
early choice of Jesus for her friend
and Savior, her faithful life in the
church ard the comforting assur-
ance that she has gone home to
Heaven.
