NEEDED.

A report issued by State Highway Com
missioner Gates states that during the
past year Vermont has built S419 miles OF
stone roads and 1903 miles Of gravel roads
at an expense OF 1874, 900. In the five
years since Mr.. Gates has held office 500
miles of highway have been permanently
improved at a total cost Of 1915, 900.
Other facts are given to justify the wis
dom Vermont has shown in dealing with
her road problem. Mr.. Gates thinks that
another five years at the present rate
would place the state where the demand
for road construction on a vast scale or
bonding therefor would have disappeared.
1t needs no official utterance to prove
that very marked advance has been made
in Vermont's highways during recent
years. Even a short trip in almost any
direction will establish that. As it stands
today, Vermont, in much of its road
mileage, averages we'll with nearby states.
1t doesn't compare with New Jersey, OF
course. 1t has fewer miles OF macadam
than Massachusetts, or Connecticut. But
considering the greater problem that Yer
mont offers by reason OF It's larger area;
its more sparsely settled communities; its
mountains and hills subject to washouts;
its harder winters with their heavy snow
and ice, and its lesser wealth, Vermont
has done very we'll indeed. The greatest
need now, mex to q larger appropriation
with which to carry on the work more
rapidly, is a definite system Of permanent
road improvement, to be conducted along
q 4 general scheme or plan, to the end that
when it is completed, which should be
within a relatively few years, vsIm mt
will have certain main t~horoughfares lead
ing through many sections Of the state,
which shall be safe and easy of passage
for all kinds of vehicles. The weakness
in the present method il not, in our opin-
ion, the in which highways are
constructed, or even maintained, when the
latter is done at all, but lies in the lin
tied authority that the state has in the
matter. So long as each individual town
is left to conduct it's highways very much
as it pleases, putting the temporary and
often the permanent work in where it
pleases and as it pleases, and all the towns
following their own particular viii in the
matter, we shall not have a good and uni
form highway system, but a patchy string
of roads, here good, there bad, hitched to-
gether, the whole only as good, Of course,
as the weakest link in the chain. Poor
towns or those with hard conditions of
DAD building to meet, or incapable build
ers, will furnish the weak links. II the
state were to build, repair and maintain
all the main thoroughfares, we should see
ali this different, in due time.

THE sTREwING OF FLOWERS
Ruskln Tells Of the Deep and Delight

Have you ever considered what a
deep undermeaning there lies or. At

custom o. strewing flowers before
those whom we think most happy?
Do you suppose It Is merely 10 de-
ceive them into the hope that happt-

at their feet-that wherever they pass
they viii tread on herbs Of sweet
scent. and hat the rough ground viii
be made smooth for them BY depth OF
roses?
So surely as they believe that they
win have. instead. TO walk on bitter
herbs and thorns; and the only soft.
ness to their feet viii be OF snow.
But II is not thus intended they
should believe; there Is a better mean

a good woman Is indeed strewn with
flowers; but they rise behind her steps.
not before them; Her feet have
touched the meadows and left the
daisies rosy."-Ruskin-
