LARGE. PART Of ROADS
IN j. S. ARE UN|MPROVED
Only About 10 Per Cent, Say Of-
fcials of American High
way Association.

Only 10 per cent of the 2,240,0OO miles
of public roads within the borders of
the United States are classed as Jim
proved roads" This is the statement
recently made by officials of the Amer
ican Highway Association, body
which announces that it has no other
object in view, Immediate or remote,
than the improvement of the public
roads of this country, and whose ma
tional character is attested by a MEM
bership drawn from every state in the
Union and almost every sphere of off,
cial and commercial activity within the
United States.
construction, including the estimated
cost of convict labor, made by states,
counties, townships and districts ag-
gregated some $235000o00, against
SI3,ooo.ooO ten years ago, according to
the figures kept by the association.
But it is clear. it points out, that so
far the surface has scarcely been
scratched, and that comparisons with
the rest of the civilized world demon
strate how far behind other countries
the United States is in this respect.
At the last annual convention of the
association. held in Atlanta in 1914, no
fewer than forty-seven road organiza-
tions were represented, and among the
o,uUu OeleSdteS were twenty-five Stdte
highway commissioners or engineers
Its highest aim, it announces, is to
weld together in service all of the
good roads organizations of the coun-
try-national, state and local.
Officers of the Association.
It's board of directors is selected from
fourteen states. It's president is Fair
fax Harrison, president of the South
ern railway: the vice president is Lo
gan Waller Page, director of the United
States office of public roads. Depart
ment of Agriculture, and it's treasurer
is John Burke, treasurer of the United
States. James S. Harlan, chairman of
the interstate commerce commission, is
chairman of the board of directors; the
chairman of the executive committee is
Leonard Tufts, and the chairman of the
membership committee is Frank A
Vanderlip. president of the National
City Bank Of New York. With such a
personnel in its management the asso-
citation feels that it can appeal with
confidence to the friendly interest and
practical cooperation of the country
as whole.
A point of timely interest in it's prop
aganda is that it aims not only to max e
easy the ways to market, to open new
and better highways for the postal
service and to bring sparsely settled
neighborhoods together for the culti-
walton of all the arts of peace, but at
the same time It's work is of the great
est importance in providing precau-
tionary avenues for necessities of war,
provided, unhappily, war should come.

The mysterious disappearance OF

was found taking a nap on the top OF
the roof of the residence formerly oc-
cupied by Senator Foraker. by some
skaters making repairs. They rudely
aroused the animal from his chicken
fed slumbers and chased him down
into the ivy on the side of the house
where he still is, according to the
skaters.
At least, if he isn't still there, nobody
knows where he is-until some more
chickens begin to disappear.

KANSAS MAY ELECT
MRS. MILLER TO HOUSE
Republicans Consider Nominating
Her for Seat Now Occupied by
Representative Doolittle.
She Is Doing Work Now as Member
of the State Penal
Board.

Kansas may establish next year the
precedent of sending woman to the
House of Representatives, according to
information which reached Washington
TODAY. 1t is said that Mrs. James Mon
roe Miller, wife of a former representa-
tive in Congress from that state, may
be selected by the republican leaders of
the fourth congressional district of
Kansas 10 make the race for the seat
in Congress now occupied by Represen-
tative Dudley Doolittle. democrat.
James NJ Miller, her husband. served
continuously in the House for six
terms, and during her twelve years
residence in Washington Mrs Miller
was widely known here in social and
literary circles.
For the past few years the repub-
licans of the fourth district have been
unable to agree on a leader. There is
said to be a muddle in republican cir
cles in this district which is more seri-
Gus than in any other congressional
district in Kansas.
Is on State Penal Board.
Mrs. Miller was recently elected presi-
dent of the Kansas State Federation of
Women's Clubs. Last year she was ac-
corded place on the program at the
Kansas Day Club banquet, the official
republican club of the state.
When Gov. Arthur Capper was elect
ed he gave Mrs. Miller further recogni-
tion by appointing her to a position
on the state penal board. which has
charge of the state penitentiary, re-
formatory and boys and girls indus
trial schools.
Take it from affiant," said William
Allen White, editor of the Emporia
(Kan.), Daily Gazette. the other day
in Kansas, in discussing Mrs. Miller s
candidacy, "she would make some can
didate. She has courage and wisdom
and tact. No organization of water
eyed hanging jowled, sagging pouch
ed barnacles would influence her vote.
She would be her own congressman,
and if she were nominated. Dudley
Doolittle would have to change his
name to Eli Hustler to get back his
job in Washington. Far be it from us
to mix into the republican row, but
certainly Mrs. j. NJ. Miller looks like
white hope on a dark day"

OPPORTUNITY.
BY WALTER MALONE.

They do me wrong who say l come no more
When once l knock and fail to find you in;
For every day / stand outside your door,
And bid YOU wake, and rise to fight and win.
Wall not for precious chances passed away,
Weep not for golden ages on the wane;
Each night l burn the records of the day,
A sunrise every soul is born again.
Laugh like a boy at ~splendors that have sped,
To vanish Joys be blind and deaf and dumb;
NY judgments seal the dead past with it's dead,
But never bind a moment yet to come.
Though deep in mire. wiring not your hands and weep;
/ lend my arm to all who say I cant
No shame-faced outcast ever sank so deep,
But yet might rise and be again a man.
Dost thou behold thy lost youth all aghast?
Dost reel from righteous Retribution's blow?
Then turn from blotted archives of the past,
And hnd the futures pages white as snow.
Art thou 4 mourner? Rouse thee from thy spell;
Art thou 4 sinner? Sins may be forgiven.
Each morning gives thee wings to fee to hell,
Esch uight = star 70 guide thy feet to heaven.

A School of Agriculture,
A School Of Engineering,
A School of Education,
A School Of General Science,
The Agricultural Experiment Station and Ex-
tension Department.
The institution, with a large faculty of trained,

tiers and laymen interested in country life problems
and their solutions; a conference of Agricultural
