The relocation Of portions of this
route would reduce the total distance
by several hundred miles. but it should

Cost Not Excessive.
Five hundred miles or more OF the
grading for the 16-foot surfaced hlgh-
way should not cost over $500 per mile
and your engineer is Of the opinion that
no individual mile would cost over
$4,000 for grading alone, ana also that
there is not more than IS miles alto
gether that would cost over $4,000 for
grading alone
1t might be said that from the in
formation gathered along the hne'
from practically every county through
which We Travelled, there is less than
200 miles of the entire distance for
which money has not been either ap-
propriated or provided for, or work

route. and while automobile supplies
and fuel are high at some points along
the route. in general the prices aver

as the boys and girls present will acc
quire some practical illustrations OF
thrift at the party" tonight, although
there will be a lot of amusing enter
tainment features on the program, in
GLIDING some good music, vaudeville,
funny moving pictures, etc.
A member of. the committee in charge
of tonight's party today pointed out in
an interview with reporter for The
Star that in the item of breaking string
alone there is a great waste. He said:
If the wrapper will use one or two
fingers in breaking string, it would
take only two inches of string to make
the break. BY using the whole hand 1t
takes four inches.
This means waste of two inches on
each package. To send out 100 pack
ages day with this waste means
waste of zoo inches. about six yards
day In week of six days this means
a waste of thirty-six yards. One hum
dred bundle wrappers wasting thirty-six
yards week each means a waste OF
$500 yards, or 10.S00 feet. With 200
feet to ball of string. this means fifty
four balls of string. This at % cents
a ball, means a waste of $3.50 in six
days time. or S1S7 a year.
