aim of the designer seems to have
been to make an odd-looking thing,

GOLD MEDAL FOR GIRL OR BOY
For Best Composition on Repair AND
Maintenance o. Good Roads.

A gold medal TO the school ooS
or girl between the ages OF 10 ana
Il who writes the best composition
not to exceed 500 words, on the re-
pair and maintenance OF earth roads
is to be awarded by Logan Waller
Page, director, office OF Public Roads
United States department Of agricul-
ture. Washington, D. c. All compo'
sitions must be submitted to Mr.. Page
before May 10, 1913, and the medal
will be awarded as soon thereafter
as the compositions can be graded.
The composition may be based on
knowledge gained from books or 9TH
er sources, but no quotations should
be made.
After many years experience in
dealing with the public road situation
of the country, it is Mr.. Pages belief
that ignorance on the subject of re-
pan and maintenance Of roads is
as much the cause of their bad con-
dition as any other one factor. 1t is
expected that the competition will
bring about a better understanding
of the subject of repair and mainten-
ance in the rural districts.
Many children living in the rural
districts have experienced the disad-
vantages of roads made impossible
through a lack of proper maintenance
and it is expected that their interest
in the competition will stimulate
greater interest among the parents
Bad roads have prevented many child.
ren from obtaining proper education
and have even prevented doctors from
reaching the side of rural patients in
time to save their lives.
Any child between the ages men
toned, attending a country school,
may compete. Only one side of the
paper must be written on; each page
should be numbered; the name, aged
and address of the writer. and the
name and location of the school which
he or she is attending must be plainly
written at the top of the first page.
The announcement of the competition
has been sent to the superintendent
of schools in the rural districts. No
further information can be obtained
from the office of public roads. This
announcement should be plain to
everyone, and all children will thus
start on basis of equality.

the mar kof its value. The big V
on the old nickel, with the word
cents plainly stamped below it, ex.
actly served the purpose. Strangers
will often be at loss to determine
the value Of the new coin. 1t may
be said that we do not make coins
with view to serving foreisners, but
't is difficult to comprehend the idea
that prevails in the mini.
The latest atrocities in coinage un.
til the new nickel appeared were the
$50, $40 and s. gold pieces. These
ar bad coins in design and execution.
OF course, they have escaped much
of the popular derision the new nick
lis will arouse because there are not
so many gold pieces in circulation.
The car fare coin is always in use.
It is to be hoped that the Old niCkels
will be kept in circulation and not be
crowded out by this new thing with
the deeply indented surfaces. which is
not pleasing to look at while new and
shiny and will be an abomination
when it is Cd and iull.-New York
