Highway Building Soon to Be General

NH ORE money is being expended in
lV the good roads movement through
out the United States this year than
has ever before been utilized for this
purpose. Some results of the work
being done by the Touring Club OF
America In conjunction with the Amer

lie to the value of improved highways
throughout the country are illustrated
in a chart just prepared by the United
States Office of public roads. which
shows that nearly fifteen thousand
miles of transcontinenal. interstate
and trunk line roads are contemplated
in various sections of the country.
Although the chart was prepared by
the office of public roads. it does not
by any means represent all the work
that has been projected or is aided
financially by the government. The
idea in issuing the chart was merely
to show the tremendous impetus that
lately has been given to the nation
wide movement for improved public
roads.
Practically every state in the Union
is benefited to some extent by the pro-
posed new highways. and the wide
spread interest in the good roads
movement indicates that the time is
not far distant when the United States
will be interlaced by complete sys-
tenn of good roads.
Estimates prepared by the office OF
public roads shows that by improving

When Friendship Counts.

The doors of the deformed man are
always locked, and the key is on the
outside. He may have treasures OF
charm inside, but they will never be
revealed unless the person outside CO.
operates with him in unlocking the
door. A friend becomes, to much
greater degree than with the ordinary
man, the indispensable means of dis
covering ones own personality. One
only exists, so to speak, with friends.
1t is easy to see how hopelessly such
a sensitiveness incapacitates man
for business, professional or social
life, where the hasty and superficial
impression is everything, and disas-
ter is the fate of the man who has
not all the treasures of his personal
ity in the front window where they
can be readily inspected and ap-
praised.-From the September At
lantic.
