ROAD WORK IN MAINE
No Interference with Auto
Traffic, Authorities Say.

Reports are being circulated through
out the country that owing to the facs
that so much road construction is being
carried on all over Maine It is mad
visable for Automobiles to visit that
state this summer. The Maine Auto
mobile Association, declares that this
report is entirely incorrect. 1t is true
that hundreds of miles of new roads
are being built throughout the state,
but this work in no way interferes with
traffic.
The association, working in conjunc-
ton with the State Highway Depart
ment, has laid out excellent detours
around all Of the work in progress and
these have been plainly marked with
special signs from end 10 end. In ad-
dition, complete running directions
have been prepared covering the de-
tours and this information is now being
posted and sent out throughout the
country.
Some important road work now be-
ing carried on by the State Highway
Department throughout Maine includes
the construction of the uncompleted
links in the highway between Ports
mouth, y. H., and Portland. Me-; the
rebuilding of the worst section of the
road between the New Hampshire line
at Fryeburg and Bridgton. the recon
structiCn of several miles of poor road
on the impor Mt Lewiston and Augusta
highway between Greene and Winthrop
and the building of several miles of
line now road on the shore lines be-
tween Portland and Rockland.
This last work includes the construc-
ton Of 4 bituminous macadam road be-
tween Portland and Brunswick, and
which later will be continued on to
Bath. this work being done jointly by
the State OF Maine and the federal gov
crnment. Other work along this route
includes long stretches between Wool-
wich and Wiscasset, as we'll as through
Waldoboro.
Similar road building will be carried
on this summer between Pennington
and Rangley, between Norrldgewock
ard Madison, between Newport and
Pancor. through Etna; between East
Machias and Dennysville, in the town
of Whiting; through the town of
Northport on the Rockland and Bangor
shore road; on the main route Of travel
into Aroostook County between Island
Falls and Houlton. and in many other
rlaces. These stretches of work will
each average from about five TO nine
miles in length and when completed
would cover practically all Of the bad
sections of trunk highway in the state.

Motorists Demand Safe

mind, Of course, is the Pell-Laimbeer
killing at Wreck Lead last summer.
All of this years accidents so far re-
corded are directly traccable to the
narrowness Of the road and the i'm
possibility of cars not under absolute
control passing others safely. On the
Fourth of July thousands of cars used
this road.
Those who have studied the Long
Beach road problem see an easy solu-
ton in the extension and development
Of the Oceanside Christian Hook
road from the point Of intersection
with the Merrick Road at Millburn
Reservoir.
That this plan meets the favor Of
local officials is apparent from the fact
that 500 900 is being spent this year in
resurfacing the highway. The Ocean
side Road already is wider than the
Long Beach Boulevard, and should it
be extended to the beach little or no
land purchase would be required. and
only two bridges would be necessary,
at the same time avoiding the grade
crossings.

WAR NURSE DIES-SHE
REFUSED A PENSION

Annie Robb, Civil War nurse, was
buried Saturday and the story of how
the government has consistently re-
fused pension to her came out.
At the time of the war Miss Robb=
and her sister went with the I'D Illi-
nois Regiment as nurse. All during
the campaign they were on the battle
field caring for the sick.
Before the war ended Annie Robb's
sister died. She was buried quietly
in some forgotten place. But that
didn't stop Annie Robb. She marched
on with the soldiers.
When she got very old-too old to
work fast enough to assure her an
income-she applied for a pension.
It was refused.
Three oil dsurvivors of the I'D Hli-
nois attended the funeral and told
wondrous tales of little Annie, the

THE standard of civilization should not
be measured by the number of Dread
noughts or the size of the army OF ma
tion," said Mime. Bella Pevsner, in speak
ing on ''The Jewish Woman in the Com
munity," before the Ladies' Auxiliary OF
Addas Israel Synagogue yesterday after
noon, but by the numbers of public
schools. universities, museums. and other
educational institutions" The speaker
urged the women to greater activity and
a more effective organization to advance
the cause of Jewish people everywhere.
Rev. DR.. Glushak. rabbi Of the syna-
gogue. said that this city should be the
center of culture for all the world; that
it should be the city of a great national
university, and that the Jewish COM
in Washington should be a model
for the Jewish communities OF the world.
Referring to woman's activity, DR.. Glu-
shak said: Men always will be a failure.
II can get a half dozen women to work
they will do far better and do more work
than men, and after they have once
started to do thinSs-the men will follow
them. Everything lies in the power Of
the women"

iliary, presided and introduced the

An end to that form of chivalTy that
always is making a profound bow to
women while denying fundamental jus
tice is demanded by Senator Robert L.
Owen. of Oklahoma. in discussing woman
suffrage.
women naturally love children" said
Senator owen yesterday, and should
have the right to protect children along
the pathway of life. to say that the open
saloon shall not prevail, to say that any
one encouraging the delinquency OF a
child shall be punished. 1t will take time
to overcome the prejudices OF the past.
The objection is made that the polling
places are disorderly and not suitable for
women to visit. Woman suffrage will
make such places orderly. l approach
this question as a man, believing that it
is for the welfare of men that women
should have this power.
Women are not so easily driven by the
party lash. They will not vote for a man
who is grossly immoral IL they know IL.
They will not vote for a man merely be-
cause he is the party nominee if they
know he is unfit.
while women have different charac-
teristics, they are fully the equal Of men

sa H. johnson Also Declares
ate Among Brightest Grad
uates Is the Lowest.

That women's colleges. from the view
point Of eugenics, contribute toward the
degeneracy of the race and ought to be
abolished is the conclusion reached by
DR.. Roswell H johnson, professor Of
biology in the University of Pittsburgh,
after an investigation.
His figures indicate that women's COL
leges discourage girls from marrying.
At Wellesley he found that the marriage
and. birthrate of the brightest students,
those elected members of the honor So
ciety, Phi Beta Kappa, is lowest OF all.
He believes the time is coming when all
women's colleges must be converted into
ooeducational institutions, and he be-
neves for the present the anti-eugenic
influence might be mitigated through sub
stitution OF men for women teachers.
Prof. johnson sets forth the results of
his investigations in the Journal of
Heredity, official organ Of the American
Genetic Association.

of Plant Industry, is president of this

Not only did she save Mr.. Anderson but she
stopped the drinking of her brother and several Of
her neiRhbors well. All this she accomplished
with simple home remedy which any one can get
and u,e. And she now desires to tell every man
and woman who has q relative or friend who
drinks, just what it is.
It can be given secretly IL desired and every
reader of this notice who is interested in curing
dear of drinking should write to Mrs. Anderson
at once. Her reply will come by return mail In q

that others will be benefited as she was. One

not send money for she has nothing to sell. Her

NOTE-This offer should be accepted at once by
all who have dear ones who drink. In fact, every
one who has to contend in any way with drunken
ness should know about it. Therefore. If you do
not write Mrs Anderson yourself CUT THIS

The effect of woman suffrage in the

this country a system Of machine politics
which, under cover of necessary organi-

pose-the service of the citizens, the well

There are in this country 100000

while in the normal school girls the sop-
posite was the case.
I'VE see from this that the Wellesley
alumnae have q very low marriage and
birth rate. In this same tabulation 1T
was found that the alumnae of Welles-
ley College who were members OF Phi
Beta Kappa had an average Of .o6o Of
a child each. while the rate for the
other girls was .0s5."
Prof johnson also cites statistics col
lected by Miss Helen ID. Murphy, another
of his students. These deal with the
graduates of Washington Seminary. in
Washington. Pa, a secondary school for
women. The figures presented show the
marriage rate has declined. In 1876, sew
euty-eight graduates married and twenty
went into occupations other than home
making. In 1900. only fifty-eight Of that
years class married. while thirty-nine
have gone into some occupation other
than home-making. The record for FIVE
year periods down to 1900 for the number
of children per graduate is:
1850. 1.75; 1855. Isl; 1850. IA; 1866. LIS;
1870, LIZ; 1S75. 1.37: 1850. LA; 1855. LIS;
1880, .SS; 1886, LIZ; 1900. .es.
Calls Figures ominous.
"rhe ominousness Of this declining mar
riage rate" says Prof. johnson, is ag-
gravated by the low birth rate which
these same women are bound TO con-
tribute. Now, combining these results to
get the birth rate of the graduates as n
whole, we have a most discouraging re-
suit. 1t should be noticed that only the
earliest classes, with one or two excep-
tons. have enough children to reproduce
the class"
rs it not Imperative" asks Prof.
johnson, that something be done to
raise the marriage rate Of all superior
women? To this end We must dissuade
superior men from shrinking marriages.
Extremists must remember that 1t Is
hard to get men to marry at even a
normal rate. as current statistics abund-
antly prove"
Prof. johnson suggests that greater
honor and appreciation should be meted
out to mothers, in order to more than
compensate for recognition other women
earn in rival occupations.
''while waiting for separate colleges
to become coeducational, as they even
tually will. their present diseugenic ten
dency,'' SAYS Prof. johnson. probably
can be reduced by the gradual intro
duction o. men teachers into the
womens colleges. Women professors
tend to foster celibate career hunting.
which, attractive as it is to many young
women at first in most cases is even
tually unsatisfying."
Prof Johnson's figures show that If col
Iege graduates do marry, 1t is about five
years later than girls who do not take
such an educational course.
The Pittsburgh professor shows that 80
per cent of all Of the women in the
United States marry before they are
forty years old. but that among the col
Iege women, who represent in many ways
the best element from a eugenic stand
point, only half that number have mar
ried at the same age
