CARD OF THANKS
FROM THE w. c. L. L.


Ocala, Fla, July 81, 1914.
DIR. S. H. Bitch and Mr.. R. w. Err
vine, Blitchton, Fla.
Gentlemen: A copy of the reso-
buttons from your churches has just
reached me, and / want to express
to your committees and 10 your
churches our grateful thanks and
hearty appreciation for the stand
you have taken in this matter.
1t does me good to know that
there are some people in Marion
county who are brave enough to pro-
test against this domineering spirit
of the liquor element.
If our temperance people would,
under all circumstances, take such a
courageous stand as this, we would
not long be cursed by the liquor traf-
fic in our fair county.
Very sincerely yours, in His great
work, Mary Lee Bridges,
President ". c. T. U.

on THE COURTHOUSE
SQUARE LAST EVENING
Good Roads Lecture and
Fine Band Concert Enjoyed by
Many People

The courthouse square was crowd |
ed with people last night. Over a
thousand were out, and the scene
was a brilliant one.
The band concert was superb, and |
the musicians received many compl- |
ments for their fine performance. |
They seem to do better every time.
The illustrated good roads lecture
by Mr.. Foote and his assistant was
most instructive and drew the atten-
tion OF hundreds.
Showing the lake of asphalt of ia
acres in Trinidad island and another
in Venezuela of 100 acres, and act
ual moving pictures OF getting out
the materials, loading on cars carry,
| ing to the ship and unloading at
| New York city, the audience was
shown every step to the finished roads
of different systems of building.
Asphalt must be heated to 400 de-
grees to drive off the impurities. 1t
is then run into barrels and cooled
off with water sprays. When used
on road it is reheated to 325 de-
grees and mixed with fiuxing oil.
First in importance in making a
road or street is TO get a level grade
exactly the same shape as the finished
roadway, and this must be rolled
with a heavy roller until the marks
of the roller show no more. This is
to be done befroe a pond of stone or
cement is used. This would scarcely
apply to our Florida sand.
If a concrete construction road is
desired, first a binder course is laid
about an inch and one-half or slight
H " deeper of sand and asphalt mixed,
8 to 1, or enough to moisten the
sand the whole being heated to 325
degrees and heavily rolled.
If asphaltic concrete is desired the
same foundation is used with stone
sand and ashpaIt, mixed and heated
to 325 degrees before spreading.
Then one-half gallon of melted as
phalt is poured on to every square
yard. Then it is covered with stone
screenings and heavily rolled.
i Asphaltic macadam has the same
Foundation being careful to make a
strong shoulder to rest the stone
\ against at the edge of the street
The stone, broken to three inch siZ-
es and smaller, but screened, is then
spread on at least six inches deep
n
again rolled. Stone three-fourths Of
an inch in size is then lightly rolled
into a depth of three inches, after
which one and one-half gallons o.
square yard, swept with screening
and rolled heavily. Another coat o
screenings and asphalt lightly spreaC
on for a carpet coat, and again roll
ed in we'll. This rolling must be con
tinued with the heavy roller until M
marks show and must be done dag
onaHy from the outside to the cen
ter Of the road.
Some roads are treated, afte
merely smoothing off, with liquid as
RIphalt and covered with screenin g
we'll rolled in. This makes a fair
lily durable road over firm clay sol
or roads that it is desired to keel
from getting muddy or dusty and
\ quickly and easily renewed. In som
places this answers for very heay
n traffic also.
The talk was listened to by a larg
\ audience and the truths told relativ
to road matters, it is hoped will sim
in and bear fruit later when Mario.
\ County, wants to improve its road
or build new ones.
