wafernound nacadams which were so extensively built few years ago are being socceeded by the tar or asphalt surfaced roads because of their last ing qualities and the protection which Is thus afforded.
 About the city of Philadelphia the old type of macadam roads, which were constantly wearing out have been everywhere replaced by the top sur- face plan which insures the durability of these roads at comparatively low cost for annual maintenance for fifteen or more years. Even under the rapid and heavy travel of the automobiles 1t is found that such roads stand up without disintegration, whereas the old waterbound maeadam, not protected by such process quickly wears out and Invariably has to be replaced every few years.
 The bituminous treatment is not only insuring the best type of modern highway, but it is serving to aid ma terial1y in the reclamation of some of the macadam roads, the value of which is rapidly decreasing. It's contribu- tion to per1nanency gives it it's strong appeal

RECOGNIZING DUTY.

Whether the president is taking too much for granted, in the announce ment giving his reasons for not talk ing the stump, when he feels that con- gress and the administration have made record on which they can ap- peal to the country in confidence, may require time for proof, but the action of the members of congress, in pur- suing a different course than he, re- fleets less faith in such a stand by those who are more directly interested at this time.
 It is nevertheless a lesson which the president is setting for members of congress for there should be reali- zation that their first duty by the very virtue of their office is to their coun- try. They are sent to Washington and paid to look after the nations bus mess and needs at all times, whether there is demand for emergency legis- 1ation or not and the conscientious leg islator will be found there. 1t is not absence from congress. it is not fence building or development of private en- terprise at home to the neglect of du- ties at Washington which creates the best impression in the minds of con stituents as to the proper fitness for retention of a seat in congress. It is, however, a proper realization of duty and the demands of the office, and a close application thereto, for the ben eft of the district and the country, which makes it possible to establish aArecord which will be looked upon at home with confidence. For the presi- dent, cabinet and congress to remain on their job when conditions require it. is not sacrifice. It is simply a prop CT recognition of duty.

GETTING GOLD TO TURKEY.

As yet there is nothing to give alarm over the action of Turkey in denying permission to the North Car olina or other large cruiser of this country to enter the Dardanelles. Even though this country has never admit ted the right of Turkey to close the straits to our ships, the danger which would accompany an attempt to nayi- gate them is fully recognized when it is understood that the waters have been mined against the passage of just such vessels.
 The action of this government in taking the advice of Ambassador Mor- ganthau to transfer whatever funds arc to be left at Constantinople for the aid of the subjects of this country, by the Scorpion shows good Judgment. No effort will be left undone to aid Americans in that country, but it is well to heed a warning of danger and adopt the safer course. It was like- wise time for discretion for an un- reasonable attitude could easily in- vofve this country in the European conflict, without attaining the object of it's endeavor, which it is now likely to do.
 The purpose of this country is to get aid to stranded tourists and those who by reason of the war have been unable to leave the country. The pur- pose will also be to look after the interests of whatever Americans there are located there, and the number is not small. including missionaries and others. It is therefore desirable that such be accomplished and being ar ranged for it matters less which ves- sel actually goes through the Dar- daEel1es.

It is situated in g. fertile plain on the right bank of the Nogat, a tributary of the Vistula, and has a population of about i5,00o. It con- tains large chemical wool-cleaning works, and Is the seat of important horse, cattle and wool markets. For a. century and half it was the res- tdence of the grand masters of the Teutonic Order, a religious organiza- tion which~centrolled that region. On the decline of that order in the mid de of the 18th century, their castle passed into the hands of the Poles. It was allowed to fall into decay by them, but has been restored by the Germans

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
That Shannon corner er.d.

MT Editor: Your paper this morning contalns another account of horse falling at Shannon's corner on Main street This is such a frequent occurrence that one would hardly expect 1t to be noticed by the press. Merchants with stands nearby report as many as six and eight a day. so, may I then sub- init this question.
 How many horses must fall: how many accidents happen. and how much inconvenience be caused by the condi- tons at this point before the grade or pavement or both is remedied? pnsuspeeting persons visiting our city continue to drive directly into this trap and with its same unfaiIing reg uiar1ty the trap claims it's victims Already several suits are pending in court as a result of injuries and dam ages sustained at this calamitous place The question of the city's culpability must soon be tested and. if it loses. the costs of these several actions will quickly total a substantial and ever increasing amount.
 Is it, therefore, good business policy to take this chance when a few dol- lars would remedy the cause? The conditions, certainly. are not unavoid- able. l submit they can be corrected But independent of legal responsi- b1lity. Is it not the moral duty of our city to correct this dangerous portion Of its main street? As it stands this part of the highway is wisely summed by the sophisticated and proves worse than useless to those unwary drivers who seek to pass over it. Do We not need all the width of street called for at this corner? I respectfully submit these questions to your consideration in the hope and trust that through publication they may find an answer in the conscience of the proper official and in the deeds of the proper department
 Yours very truly,

BROTHERLY ATTENTIONS

You were at the Summer Circle dance, weren't you. Alice?" asked Ethel, Alice nodded.
 'sWhy, what's the natter? Didn't you have good time? Whom did you go With?"

 ssHow perfectly splendid it is to have two brothers; and haven't any,"
 "Oh. I wouldn't feel bad about it if I were you,'' returned F year old Alice. Brothers are sort of mixed blessings. The fact is, don't know anything more exasperating at times than a brother The night of the Summer Circle dance wished mine were both in Jericho"

 tHThe night of the party I had just put on the perfectly sweet pink ano white organdy that I had begged mamma to buy for me for the occasion when the maid came upstairs and told take me to the dance.

 Be careful, Alice, he'll hear you, warned Bob.
 CT don't care if he does. Anyway, I'm going to tell him that I won't go. I flew downstairs, but when I got to the parlor door walked in slowly and bowed ever so slightly to Charlie.

OUR CHANGE IN THE WAR.

While there can be little doubt but what the war has prevented the Un- derwood tariff from showing itself up in it's true light and making 1t evident that the economic benefits which were promised could not be delivered there by, 1t is the condition which the war has caused and not that which might have followed. about which the coun- try needs to be particularly concerned just now.
 For the present. at least, and prob ably for a long time to come, the tariff slashing has been forced into the back ground through the opportunities which the war has given to the in- duEtrial activities of the United States. It is a veritable wall of protection qlnce the imports from those countries Wh1ch have been coming here under reduced toll are shut ofr and not only are we in control of our own fieId and forced to develop certain natural re- sources which have in the past been neglected for the foreign output, but the opportunity is presented for the gaining of our share of trade with foreign countries where too little effort has previously been made.
 The situation should result in a marked increase in industrial activity and with it should go the determine ton that it is a permanent awaken ing and not a temporary one Not only should we supply our own wants but we should get our share of the worlds trade AS much as we regret the war, we cannot afford to overlook the chance it affords us. 1t provides the Bridge over the industrial slough of despond to which tariff conditions were leading. and in saving us from worse lt points the way to better things.

THE SOUND LINES.

It is but natural that the new head of the department of justice should desire the clearing up of the New Eng land railroad situation as soon as pos- Eib1e. That is what has been desired by the road and the people of New England for many months, but they have been desircus that it should be done with a proper consideration for the conditions, and the future of this part of the country.
 In this connection there is the im- portant matter of the Sound lines, the retention of which by the road has long been the prayer of New England but the decision on which rests with the Interstate commerce commission. Con- eerning the feeling that the road should be permitted to retain these transportation lines the Boston Tran script properly says: Were it sub mitted to referendum of the people of New England the opposition would not be serious enough to be worth considering. It may be thought to be B necessary part of official proceedings that some forniality shall be observed In the settlement of that phase of the general question. but it would cause surprise and even indignation were the
 
 auxiIiaries. The steamers can be oper- ated much more efficiently under pres- ent control than they could be by a separate company.
 This Is not hypothesis but a. dem unstrated fact. The more intimately the two branches of the service can be conducted the better 1t must be for the public accommodation. To decree their separation would not only gratu- itously penalize the company, which is now making commendable efforts to recover the ground that has been lost, but it would penalize the trav- elers and shippers of New England to a much more serious extent.''
 The Sound lines are a relief to the transportation facilities of the road tc such an extent that were they sep Hrated it would mean an undeserve6 hardship both to the road and to this part of the country.
