stead of forwards in the matter of good roads, Commissioner Bennett must have the s5. 400, GOO he asks.
 If the suggestion of the committee on appropria tions is to be followed then the $S.OOo, 900 will have to be raised on the old bond issue of 1911. These bonds run for twenty-five years. Is it just to postpone for a quarter of a century the payment for roads we are to use today? A ten year bond as called for in the bill of the high way commissioner, redeemab1e at the rate of 10 per cent. each year, is fair, as we are to pay for four improved roads on the insta1lment plan, ten per cent a year for ten years. Any oth- CT plan is a robbery of posterity. Bonds which are to come due in 1936 should not be used for building roads today.
 The most practical manner in which to meet this crisis in our state roads is for each good roads advocate to immediately personally see, write or telephone his representative in the General Assembly and urge him to vote for this Appropriation bill.

The pyspeptie Ostrich.

Long ago the phenomenal power of the stomach of the ostrich was immor- talized in the idiom of all the worlds great languages. To have the ~stom- ach of an ostrich is the synonym for incompatible digestive power, the gd- preme flight of gastric laudaion- Those omnivorous beings of the dime muse urn who devour hardware in public for so much per week are always down on the bills as "human ostriches." Well, to make a long story short, the whole thing from beginning to end is nature falzing. pure and simple. As a matter of fact, the ostrich, if not confirmed dyspeptlc, has a most delicate diges- ticn. The largest single entry in os- trich mortality records is acute tno1- gestion. The successful feeding of -os- triches in captivity requires constant care.-Argonaut.
