ROAD PLANS CONFLICT.
Story Boone Highway Appropriation
Bumps Into New State Law.

Special to Times Republican,
Nevada, May 29.-The board of SUI
pervisors of story county spent the
mott of Tuesday afternoon discussing
the Transuontinental highway propo-
sition with E. W. James Of Washing
ton. chief inspector of roads of the
road bureau Of the department of as-
riculture. in an effort to reach a final
adjustment concerning the permanent
Improvement of that highway across
this county and Yesterday he spent
with the Boone county people in SIM
liar discussion.
II will be remembered that Mr..
James was out during the winter and
after looking over the situation made
a favorable report to the department
that an appropriation of $4,000 be
made cut of the half million to be ex-
pended in the experimental improve
ment of highways. Story and Boone
county boards and commercial clubs
made the necessary appropriations to
meet the requirements of the govern
ment's offer and Governor Carroll rec
commended this part of the highway to
the department.
The difficulty now lies in the con-
flict of the government offer and Iowa $
new road law. AS the board had passed
the resolutions for the expenditure OF
this money before the new law went
into effect ii is thought that such can
be adjusted and an attorney will con-
fer with Attorney General Cosson over
the matter today. In the meantime

which ne will return here and the
papers will be closed up that he may

that as the law now stands It is quite
easy to cause trouble for some entirely
proper enterprises on the Sabbath day.
Merchants compelled to close threaten
to prevent sale of tickets to the chau-
tauqua on Sunday. 1t Is found that
under Iowa law, not new law but a
very old one, this certainly can be
done.
Under the rulings Of the courts 1t Ia
held that while one may not stop Sun
day baseball or Sunday chautauqu as,
OF Sunday theaters, it is possible to
put a stop to the collection OF tickets
or the taking Of money for entrance on
Sunday.
At Sidney they have the idea that all
this is due to the Cosson laws but

fills in time for the puppy and it
makes him believe he is really doing
something:
That's what the following story of
the United Charities interference
suggests puppy chasing its tail in
order that it might seem to be doing
something.
Mrs. Jane Carmody is a feeble old
mother, and her son, Charles, is, ae-
cording to the Rush Medical Clinic,
tubercular.
They had lived in one neighboF-
hood for % years before the U. C.
started investigating and all Of
their friends we're right near them,
so that even though the sCarmodys
were having trouble they were re-
ceiving a lot Of sympathy, which
helps quite little.
Enter the United Charities.
Two investigators. Not both to-
gether, but one after the other.
They first persuaded Mrs. Car
mody to stop working and stay at
home and take care of her son, and
then they handed her 81 a week on
which to live. They handed this So
allowance for quite afew weeks, and
while it might seem a small pittance
81 for seven days for each person,
this is such unusual generosity on
the part of the U. G. that it deserves
mention
Then they concluded they weren't
doing enough.
No, they didn't raise the allowance
per week for an old lady and her
sick son--they just started chasing
their tails. t
''You must leave this neighbor-
hood" they said. You must have
nice house with a nice porch where
Charles can sleep out of doors. Now,
wouldn't that be nice?" and they
made just the same gleesome noise
the DlIDDV does.

WAY THE UNITED CHARITIES CHASED A
MOTHER AND SON ABOUT

dears it to one. One remembers how
many children have been born-hoW
many have grown to womanhood-
how many have died. One becomes
sentimental over the very houses,
themselves.
But there is no sentimentality
about the U. c. They moved the
Carmodys. Incidentally a mirror
was broken in the moving, and other
furniture damaged, but then the
puppy chasing its tail usually does
some damage to the furniture, too.
No, the U. c. didn't fix up the
porch. They didn't eve nselect
house with a porch worth fixing up.
This particular porch faced filthy
alley and was cluttered with heaps
of dirty wall paper.
But Mrs Carmody didn't know
about the puppy chasing its TAIL SO
she took the U. c. seriously and ask
ed them what they were going to do
about the porch.
The q. C. looked just as surprised
as the puppy does if you whack him
across the snout with a stick.
Elk. the porch?" they echoed. ''Let
your pastor do that"
Charles, the invalid, for whose sake
the U. c: had done the taiI-chasing,
got. busy and filed several bags with
the dirty paper, took them into the
yard and burned them, and then was
worse.
His friends heard about it and got
up rattle for him and collected 500
to send him to the country.
You ought to have seen the U. c.
then. The puppy smelIed fresh meat.
Right after Charles friends they
went and asked for the $500 that they
might send Charles to Oak Forest
"a county institution). They also
proposed to send Mrs. Carmody to the
poorhouse, and judging by the fuss
they made over their willingness to
