taken up in a scientific way and dealt
with by experts. The laying out of
the road, the grading-not only to
drain the water from the center of the
road to the gutter, but along the gut
ter the length Of the road. The road
drag came in for much praise and it
the best implement made to take
care of a dirt road after it was built.
1t should be used, according to the
experts, after each rain so that the
road bed will be smoothed down and
the holes filled up. Every county
should have a system of caring for it's
roads so that there are men to drag
them at the proper time and this work
should be paid for. The old method
Of working out the road tax is obso-
lete and is rapidly passing away.
''The matter of making good roads
is not so complicated as one would
think, and it is largely a matter of
common sense. Local conditions gov
ern considerably in road building, but
the road of whatever kind it may be
should be built right in the first place.
Bridges came in for considerable
discussion and every speaker empha-
sized the imperative need of building
good bridges. Practically every en-
gineer favored concrete, as the best
and most permanent material.
THE road material and road nipple
ment men had attractive displays and
they were educational as we'll.
1.-TWO days were given over to the
subject of country roads and two days
to city streets and pavements, and I,
OF course, was especially interested in
the latter. A discussion of the differ
ent kinds Of pavements brought out
the fact that there is no material that
is absolutely ideal. Some are dusty,
noisy and others slippery, but
while all have their faults they make
good streets if properly laid. Creosot-
ed wood blocks | think stood highest
in the opinion of the engineers. as
they are very durable, although in
clined to be slippery. Brick was the
second choice and asphalt third. Small
Ter cities are taking up paving as the
method of solving the problem of
city streets and they are looking for a
pavement and one that |
Is not as expensive as the three nam
ed. 1t was the opinion that concrete
or asphaltic concrete was perhaps
he best material for their needs. and
know that millions of yards of these
materials have been laid in small
of the Northwest. Concrete is
lurable and is easy to repair, that is
t does not require the services OF an
Expert from out of town, as the other
materials do.
THE question of state aid for high
rays was discussed at some length
nd 1t was the c%oncensus of opinion
hat the states should assist in fnanc.
ng road building. Just how much
hould be contributed is, of course, up
o the states, but the Ohio law was
ointed out as a good example. There
he state pays fifty per cent, the coun-
Y twenty-five, the township fifteen and
he abutting property ten per cent of
he cost of building and maintaining
Dads, and in my opinion it is a very
Quitable division of the tax"

Makes Truths most ancient temple

Men pirate and preach of evil days;
The world is mad with money lust;
The cities walk In sinful ways,

He knows the littleness of lies,
He hears the deep respond to deep
And knows that Truth shall always

Their span is brief; their space is

We know that Gods eternal years

The temple always toward the
