the luncheon problem. Gettysburg
women helped in Adams county. The
same menu held good the State over.
There were plenty of sandwiches, lem

The Governor is more than eager for
his administration to establish better
roads in Pennsylvania. When it was
seen that the State revenue was such
that roads could not get the amount
OF money that they should have, he de-
cided to let the publicspirited people

Day declaration was made before the
road bills were passed in the Legisla-
ture.

Work in the Coal Regions

Hazleton, Pa, Ma 26.-The success
of good roads day in the Lehigh coal
tield was marred by an early morning
drizzle that threatened to keep up un-
til night. Despite this many volunteer
laborers and teams were on the job and
it was expected to do considerable
work. The coal companies, this city
and in the surrounding municipalities
and private citizens donated the use
of teams, tools, laborers and highway
machinery.
