To know that we are a disappoint

to acknowledge work well done, or to
show gratitude for services willingly

CONCERNING Men Win Talls

IL would not be wise to build upon
he story OF the coast natives that In
he interior OF Papua there are men
with tails. Similar beliefs have been
held in many parts of the world end
many ages. sometimes from impress
sions of apes. sometimes from more
or less spiteful credulity about a peo
Dle's neighbors. For centuries II was
. common gibe on the Continent that
E%nglishmen had tails. 1t originated
from the story that the people OF
canterbury or Strood, having Knocked
Z ST. Thomas riding upon a little ass
md cut of its tail, were punished
with the curse that thenceforth all
heir boys should be born with tails
And the SCOTS OF other Engiishmen al
he "Kentisli lopgtails" rebOunded up
IN he whole nation. so that even in
he time OF Edward VI Englisbmen
broad suffered from the taunt.

importance would be the benefit to
the constantly increasing number Of
auto users in the Humboldt valley.
There are sections of the roa3 subject
to washouts that could be stopped by
blowing flood water diverting bitches
to main channels that could be tim
Der bridged where such main drain
age channels would cross the road.
High eenters can be corrected by
gravel filing of the track chaunelS
and placin of water diverting
benches across the road. The section
between Rose Creek station and
Oreana is especially evil for short
stretches of high centers hat could
be cheaply corrected by use of the
ample gravel along the way. Stretches
of heavy sand can easily be correct
ed by brushing, as has been done for
a few miles west Of Winnemueea.
There is still some sagebrush left that
can be used for this purpose. The
road across the north arm Of Carson
sink, which a little moisture renders
unpassable and which is crossed
about thirty miles west of Loveloek.
can be avoided by fixing up the old
grade of the Southern Pacific railway
for a roadway, or it can be remedied
by graveling. There are MANY miles
OF the old railway grade between a
point east Of Golconda and stone
house, as well as elsewhere. that
could be converted into an excellent
vehicle road with small expense, com
paratively, for grading and bridges.
In Churchill county the worst eondi-
tion of rocks and deep gulIeys along
the route is on a section of about Eve
miles in length after crossing the
north arm of the Carson sink: and on
another section of about seven miles
length after passing the hot springs,
and west of the salt works. Five hun
dred dollars worth of good labor
would change these sections from
tire, machine and patience destroyers
into good roads. The long meander-
ing detour through the north end Of
Lyon county to get into the main road
from Hazen to Reno could be avoided
by a nominal expense IN graveling
and brushing a few miles of the cut
off now existing, and safe only for
wagon travel.
During the auto travel season of
1915 it would be good economy to en-
ploy a man on each of the few bad
sections of the road. TO give his en-
tire attention to keeping his particu-
lar section in good repair. The max
ing of good roads is even of more
benefit to those who do teaning than
to the a%utoist. In the dry climate Of
Nevada's valleys it is not needed to
go to the great expense of ~macadam-
lied road construction, except on the
short sections that are subject to the
development of high e~enters and deep
ruts due to the nature of the soil.
For every economic reason 10 Ne
vada, and TO the overland a%utoist, the
road which I have named the Hum
boldt Route is the one which should
be especially and speedily repaired;
kept in repair, and advertised to all
a~utoists as the BEST Always-Road -
across Nevada. If you people from
Montello to Reno will get busy on
this subject you will see the ''Hum-
holdt Route become more famous
for auto travel to the benefit of all.
than it was famous for wagon travel
