WE MUST EMBARK

~ HE State Roads Commission
makes a new move in its policy
al (noO building improved
highways At It's meeting this week,
upon Governor Crothers' suggestion,
the Commission decided to go into the
road building business itself, taking a
mile oi road in Cecil county as first
step The Commission will appoint a
superintendent. purchase all materials,
tools. machinery, etc The Governor
says I'VE have reached the point at
which we must decide where we are
at. 50 to speak" Well. TO haye reach
ed that point after year and half
OF dcliberation and automobiling, is
certainly a vigorous and hopeful sign
Of progress Having made the dis
coyery OF his Commissions precise,
present location, the Governor feels
that the location is somewhere in the
nc;ghborhood OF 4 crisis, Nobody
arises to dispute il. Whereupon he
assures the Commission and the people
that I'VE must. as State, embark in
road building" -- evidently indicating
that for the past year and more his
Commission has only been parading
on the shoe. But now Eve must en-
bark Not only may. might, could,
or should, but MUST. Compulsion is
upon us. SAYS the undaunicd Admiral,
and whips out his chart for the pro-
jcctcd voyage. Here it is, as con-
structcd by his own wise hand:

on either side oi the river would not

But here j. the solid fact. There is no
waterway in Maryland that has the
same transportation facilities rs the
Susuuchuna River. which also has an
unlimited supply ui rock The rail-
road companies have not given Ms a
desirable rate down the Eastern Shore
and through the Central Maryland

in their maintenance the State will

Something Now In Prizes.

One of the favorite "bridge" prizes
among the fashionable set this season
is silver automobile flower holder
These attractive novelties have met
with great success since their intro
duction, not long ago, and nearly every
smartly equipped limousine car has a
decorative attachment Of this style.
Many of the holders are conical in
shape, though other designs are
straighter, with fancy ornamentation
in embossed work, in engraving or in
jewel setting. The tiny silver vase is
attached to the inside Of the car,
either In the corner or below the win
dow frame, and can be removed quite
easily. 1t will hold either water or
damp wool, and flowers placed in the
receptacle retain their freshness sew
eral hours. 1t is the fashion, of course,
for each woman to have her favorite
flower in her car. A "bridge" prize of
this kind can later be decorated with
the winners initials.
