The Battln Of ChnIans.

There have been so many bloody
battles Il is perhaps impossible to say
with absolute certainty which of them
all was the bloodlest, but the balance
of the evidence seems to be in favor
Of the battle OF Chalons. France,
fought A. d. 451 between the Huns,
under Attila. and the Romans, Goths
and Franks, under the command Of
Aetius, the most renowned captain of
his day. At the head OF his 5ooor
savages Attila was having everything
his own way. and it looked as N
Aryan civilization was destined to falt
before the Tartar despotism, when
suddenly, like a bolt out of the blue.
Aetius fell upon the barbaric hordes
and Europe was saved. 1t is estimat.
ed that 100000 OF the barbarians were
left dead on the field.

Reuse Curves in

With the securing of the consent of
the city council for the tening Of
the Lincoln Highway at Twelfth ave-
nue. and Nevada street, and the pur-
chase of land on the two corners, the
Marshalltown Motor Club has COM
pleted Its plans for the Improvement.
Work will be begun at once on the
cutting off of the 100 feet in order that
the paving gang may not be delayed
in it's work.
About fifty feet of the highway is
the road turns west on Nevada street
at the intersection of that street and
Twelfth avenue, and the other where
it turns south into the avenue again.
The motor club has made arrange
ments with C. c. Millhiser and II. ..
Hyatt. who own the land at these cor
ners to sell the few feet for 800 apiece.
According to present plans the width
of the pavement at these turns may pc
increased to approximately twenty
four feet, in order to facilitate autos
passing each other in passing on the
curves. This Improvement will not
only cut off 100 feet from the length
of the highway, but will give two vide
turns easy for autos to negotiate. a
committee from the motor club con-
sisting of G. w. Darling, DR.. H. A.
kinnan, j. l.. Williams, A. Q. Blu
chanan and A. E. Nickel completed the
negotiations for the changing of the
highway and the buying of the prop
erty.

MOORE RETURNS.
Made Trip by Auto to California Via

Mr.. A A. Moore, county consul 1or
the Lincoln Highway Association, re-
turned by rail this morning from Call
fornia where he arrived few days
ago from his overland trip by auto
with the Osterman party of Lincoln
Highway officials. Mr.. Moore said
that he experienced no hardship what

journey which consumed nearly a
months time
AS to roads in the west he said
The improvement in the last year
on roads in western Iowa IS remark
able. Carroll. Harrison, Green and
Pottawattamie counties have thrown
up good wide grades and in sections
have graveled their roads. AS mai
ter of fact they are ahead of the CEN
trail Iowa counties. Council Bluffs and
Omaha have long stretches of I'M
proved roads leading into the city.
Many of the towns are putting in per-
rnanent pavements and like the pave
ment in the city limits in Marshall
town adds to the permanent improve
mcnt of the Lincoln Highway. They
already estimate that over SO0'mileS OF
the $500 is improved. In eastern Ne
braska, with a soil much like Iowa,
they have done fully as much as we
have except that their cuverts and
bridges are not as good and the road
is not as we'll dra eyed. Near North
Platte they have built a $4,000 bridge
that shortens the route some eighteen
miles. Most all the towns have i'm
proved their streets and that adds to
the efficiency Of the route.
Thru western Nebraska the soil is
lighter and it is easier to maintain the
roads and yet you find an absence Of
sand on the highway that you natur-
ally expect Cheyenne has miles OF
good gravel road and in crossing the
