COPPER AS HARD AS STEEL
Maine Blacksmith Claims to Have
Discovered Centuries Lost Art Of
Tempering Copper.

Milbridge, Me.-James Walter Foss,
the village blacksmith, sixty-seven
years old, says he has discovered the
centuries lost art of tempering cop
per. He shows copper knives that will
whittle long shavings from hickory
wagon spoke, and copper draw
shave that slices the knots in the
toughest ash hoop pole. He cuts a
mortise in an oak heart plank with a
copper chisel and he has a copper
razor which the village barber says is
about the slickest tool he ever ham
died.
These tools were forged of discard
ed soldering coppers from the sardine
cannery, bits of copper wire and an
old copper kettle. They may be
ground, whetted or honed like steel.
Foss says he can make copper file,
or a copper hand saw, or anything
with a cutting edge and Of any degree
of hardness. !
He says that he hopes to get enough
out of his discovery to spend his last
days without work and then the world
is welcome to it. HE is sixty-seven
years old and thinks he has worked
long enough, but until he made his
discovery it looked like years more OF
labor for him.

the boy on the farm. The government
planned we'll. The idea has resulted
in revolutionizing agriculture.
"This is what caused me to appeal
to the boys in the interest Of good
roads. My plan is to have every rural
school lay out a stretch of good road,
from quarter to a half mile in length,
leading from the schoolhouse, to plant
fruit trees on either side and to i'm.
prove the road. believe that one
such piece of model road in each com
munity will arouse so much interest
and SO much pride that communities
will vie with each other In road i'm
provement.
''In this manner, having the hearty
cooperation of the state superintend'
ent of public instruction, an educa'
tional campaign can be started in the
schools of our state that in time will
become most important factor and
be the means of perfecting the consoli.
dated rural school system throughout
the state | sincerely believe that as
much interest can be aroused, and as
many benefits be brought to the young
people as are coming to them through
the statewide movement of the or.
ganization of clubs to promote the
growing of corn. The two movements
will at least harmonic, and neither
will be in the way Of the other.
"The PLAN as now outlined, is to or.
ganize good road and tree-planting
club in every rural school in the state,
have the county or the state highway
engineer visit the schools, following
the organization of the clubs, and pro-
coed to lay out one-fourth or one-half
mile of road leading from the school,
house. In every instance the school
club shall assist in the survey, the
laying out of the road, in securing the
easements from the abutting property
owners. The club boys shall carry the
chain, set the grade stakes, the drain
age stakes, learn just how plans and
profits are made, and be taught that
this piece of good road will be used
for generations to come.
"The club members shall be included,
while the road is actually being built,
when it is properly drained, graded
and crowned, how culverts are placed;
what the size of culverts should be,
according to the topography Of the sur
rounding country. After the road is
completed it can ge kept up through
the use of light wooden drag at a
nominal cost, and this work should
also be done by the boy club mem

The good road educational move

Maj. Gen. George w. Goethals, gov.
ernor of the Canal zone, arrived in
New York recently on board the s.
s. Pastores. He said he would offer
his resignation to take effect in No
vember. Colonel Goethals is accom-
panied by his wife and son Thomas,
and is here On leave Of absence to
visit the Panama-Pacific exposition.
The colonel expects to be put on
the active army list, and if this is not
possible, he will ask for his retire
ment with the rank Of brigadier-gen-
eral. He told newspaper men that
he intended to visit the exposition as
a private individual, and desired that
no fuss be made about him by any Of
the officials. That Mrs. Goethals is
anxious to leave the Canal zone per-
manently was shown by remark she
made shortly after the ship left quar-
antine and started for the pier: y
hope never to go back" she said.

The meeting was called for the
purpose Of interesting the citizens
in the promotion OF a torty-foot
highway from Dresden to Limbs,
on the west baundry line of Weak
ley county, going through Sharon,
and it was found that citizens re-
siding along the proposed route
were already interested, all being
needed was the crystallization OF
the interest and an organization.
A number Of helpful suggestions
we're made by John Glass, Enoch
Brock, DR.. Harkey, B. W. Bruce
and others, and Mr.. Garrett was
asked to make a talk, Mr.. Garrett
told ,of the work which had been
done in the vicinity of Dresden
and later gave an outline of road
law which several who have given
the road question more or less
study endorse.
By a unanimous vote it was
agreed to put through a forty-foot
highway from Dresden to Limbs
going by way of Sharon, and that
landowners would be asked to do
