FIFTH ANNUAL ROAD SCHOOL
Big Yearly Event to be Held at
Madison, January 81 to
February

The Fifth Annual Road School of
which has become fixture of in
terest to hundreds interested in
road and bridge construction and
maintenance, will be held in the
Assembly Chamber at Madison on
January 81 to February 5, inclusive.
At these meetings there is discussed
practically every vital question con-
corning the various types Of roads
and bridges; methods, machinery and
tools used in construction and main
tenance as we'll as the state high
way law and it's requirements and
provisions.
Owing to the creation of the new
county road and bridge committees,
and to the increased state wide in
terest in the subject of road con-
structiOn and maintenance, it is ex-
pected that the attendance at the
coming road school will surpass that
of any previous year, although the
Wisconsin Road Schools have always
been more largely attended than have
similar meetings in other states.
For convenience, closely allied
problems have been placed on the
program for discussion the same
day. Monday will be Reception Day;
Tuesday, Administration Day;
Wednesday, Construction Day; Thur s.
day, Maintenance Day; Friday, Mis-
cellaneous Problems, (being also

Day.; Saturday, Contracts and Ac-
counting.
Ahy citizen Of Wisconsin, whether
officially connected with state aid
road work or not, is invited and
welcomed at all sessions. While the
program is designed especially to
meet the needs Of county highway
commissioners, county committees,
and road foremen, at the same time
contractors, engineers, and city
officials have found much to inter
est them in the program and exhib-

WINTER TONIC FREE
HE DEkRhOHM.0 0. DIRECTOR


Take plenty of the right kind Of
winter tonic and you will have little
need of the time-honored spring
tonic of your grandmother's day
The best kind of winter tonic
comes in the guise of out-of-door Win
ter sports for the principal ingred.-
ents in the tonic are fresh air, eXer-
else, and joyousness Of spirit. Hav-
ing a good time in the right en-
vironment is a great health giver.
SO get out your skates, your tobog-
gan or your bob, dress warmly and
lightly and use your leisure to
make the wind, the cold and the
snow your friends and allies instead
Of hiding away from them as much
as possible and thus turning them
into enemies to be feared. Don't
let the children have a monopoly on
the fun of sliding down hill. Slide
down with the youngsters and con-
vince yourselves that you are not
too old to have a good time With
them 1t will be a good thing for
your health and for the health OF
your family.
The city of Madison has done a
fine thing in setting aside half a
dozen or more of it's hills for coast
ing and giving them police protec-
ton. Teams and automobiles must
take other thoroughfares and the
coasters have the right of way.
Lagoons are turned into skating
Kinks and out-of-door recreation is
being encouraged. Other WiscOn-
sin cities, where the natural right
Of the boy and the girl to use the
hills for sport has been stolen away
bit by bit, would do we'll to follow
Madisons example. It is much less
expensive than providing pl Y
ground equipment for the summer
time and much more necessary.
paratiyely easy in warm weather. 1t
is different thing in winter and
the city which has the real welfare
Of it's people at heart will make sure
that winter Fairgrounds, such as pro
tected hills and skating ponds are
available.
Country people, who are more for
tunate in the undisputed possessions
of hills which have not yet been
transformed into travelled roads and
of countless ponds for skating need
to wake up to the health giving value
as well as the fun which lies in these
too-often neglected resources. Time
spent in getting health is not time
wasted and there is no better way
Of betting health than by combining
exercise and pleasure and mixing
them thoroughly with fresh air Don't
let the bracing quality of the win
ter air go to waste. Make it your
own, build up your resistance pow
er, an get yourself into such ply
Steal condition that grip and colds
will hesitate to tackle you 1t can
be done and there's great fun to
be had in the doing.

all ready to be used in the supper
scene, and whenever one OF the
actors was missing, which was con-
tinually, he or she was sure to be
found circling about the great cake,
like fly around a jam pot.
Everybody wondered what Director
REYNOLDS would do with the wonder
after the scene was filmed. Some
said he would send it back to the
maker, but most of them firmly be-
lieved that it would be cut and dis
tributed among them. Director Rey-
nolds had intended to give his hard
working company, a treat. but he had
SO much bother keeping them away
from the cake, that he lost patience,
and finally decided to send it to
local charitable institution, the very
minute the scene was finished, Al
tho he is one of the best-liked mem
bers OF the producing staff, this de-
cision caused rather a slump in his
popularity for some days. For it is a
proverbial saying that actors are all
Just big children, and the loss OF
their treat was too much for them,
until they saw the joke.
