SHALL THE u. S.
BUILD ROADS

It is a question which is slowly
hut surely forcing itself upon the
National Legislature. Many Sen
ators and Representatives now be-
lieye that the building of system
of National Highways is of more
economic Importance than any
other public work more vital
than the question of large navy,
more useful than any river and
harbor Improvement, more neces-
sary than the Panama Canal. For
Highways are built and owned by
the people and are free to all the
people. A few years ago road
bills had short shift in congress
at present there are nearly hun
dred bills before congress dealing
with road building in one form or
another.
Although the "good roads"
idea has been gathering force and
Roadway for many years, its ad-
vocates are still pulling in many
directions. Some road associations
want state highways with nation
al aid. Others want state High
ways without national aid. Still
others want good roads paid for
by the counties through which
they pass, without any aid. One,
at least, believes firmly that the
question is not only one for
States, Counties, Cities and
Towns, but for the Nation.
The National Highways Asso-
citation believes that the beginning
of a comprehensive good road sys
tenn for the nation must be made
by the federal government.
Such a system-as outlined or
the map published here--consists
of fifty thousand miles of nation
al highways. 1t is not intended
that this map should represent tn
entire good road system needed
by the United States. 1t is mere
ly tentive suggestion of the ma
tional system of national highway
from which good roads built by
States, by Counties, and by Cite
and Towns, would grow and mul
tiply.
Roads Breed Roads.
1t is universal experience tina
one mile of good roads breed an
other mile. Put a statewide, gOoC
road down anywhere in this coun
try, and in ten years there will
be dozens of good roads reaching
it from all parts Of the state. Pu
down a system of national high
ways, built and maintained by tn
national government, and tn
various state legislatures an
county officials would soon Sc
the advantages of connecting a
parts of the states with thos
national roads.
There are two million miles
roads in the United States. Th
fifty thousand miles of highwa
shown on the map is but a fractlo
over two per cent of this mileag
But. improve these fifty thousan
miles into good roads, and kee
them good roads by proper mail
tenance, and fifty thousand mile
more would grow almost owe
night, and then another fiji
thousand and another and anoth
until our great country, with
huge territory, would be crosse
and recrossed with good road
as France is to-day.
National Highways Abroad.
France has national highway
These are immense trunk III
roads, great arteries of commerc
and from these the smaller roa'
are built by the provinces
France, just as the states al
counties of our states will bul
feeders and connections to a n
tional system of highways.
If France-about the size
Texas-needs national highway
how much more do we, with Of
huge territory, require themg

trifles and the household cares of
years wearing away from her. All
the same he did this with a suppress
sion of sadness she never penetrated.
1t was with an aching heart, and that
heart beating next to a certain let

from her, that the old man smiled
at her simple joyoUsness.

for the boys farm! Did l show you
the photograph he sent me of the
dear place, with himself and his
wife, Laura, and the two tots on the
pretty porch? Isn't it delightful to
think of you and l passing our last
days among such lovely surround
ings, after just negotiating in this
ramshackle old ruin ready to fall to
pieces after a centUTy's use?"
It was indeed a veTitable ruin. It
had answered the needs of two gen
eratiOns, however. A large rambling
house, it was scarcely safe now to
walk across some of the trembling
floors. NeighbOrs had warned the
Haydens that it would not last much
longer, that any day the venerable
relic might tumble about their ears.
Don't worry" Sarah Hayden had
smiled brightly. ct will last our
time Only few days and we will
bid it goodbye; we are going to make
our home with the dear boy, David,
out west"
The small patch of ground around
the house had no value whatever,
even for average garden purposes.
AS to the house, millwright had Of
fered $50, intending to tear it down
and use the old lumber to build sheds
on his own place. It was this that
the Haydens had depended on to pay
their way to "the boys farm" out
west.
ct will kill her when she knows
the truth" grOaned John Hayden as
he moved away on his CTUtches from
the house. ''HOw shall l break the
news to her? Poor mother! Poor,
dear bOyw
Then the old man sought a seclud-
ed spot near the river and for the
hUndredth time took out the secret
letter and pOTed over its contents.
That letter contained a real heart
tragedy in its few soul-crushing
lines. It informed the distracted

HOW MOVIES CAME

BY Augustus Goodrich sherwin.
When the movies came to Brook
dale Mrs. Hayden took a great inter

pied husband lived a mile from town
along the river. 1t was there that
the motion picture men made their
camp. The scenery was wild and
beautiful, just the spot to furnish the
frame for almost any vernal drama.

WEST POINT COUPLE
HAVE CLOSE CALL

West Points, Oct. 17.--Mr. and Mrs.
j. M. McCaskill had very narrow
escape from serious injury or perhaps
instant death. Mr.. McCaskill Is a
travelling sewing machine agent and
had three machines on q small alto
truck. Mrs. McCaskill was driving
UP the Pittman hill on the timber
road south OF town. This Is a long
steep and dangerous hill. She at
tempted to change the machine from
high to low but she had waited too
long and the car started to back down
the hill. Mr.. McCaskill took the steer
ing wheel and applied the brake but It
would not hold. The car backed down
the hill into a deep ditch and turned
completely over. Both the occupants
were caught beneath the car but aside
from few bruises were not hurt. The
car was badly damaged.
