GOOD ROADS DAY PROCLAMATION
The farmer is the man most interested in
good roads, because he is the man most
directly affected. Good roads mean that he
can get his crops to market at the proper
time and with less expense Good roads
mean good loads; good loads mean less ax-
pense IN marketing and quicker delivery.
Ih1s year there Is an unusual interest In
the good roads movement. The federal
government, recognizing the general demand
for improved highways, has appropriated
several million dollars to be distributed
and spent, under proper federal and state
supervision, in states where the local Of
flcials make tax levies to raise a like
their purpose the betterment of roads have
sprung up in Kansas. and as a result Of
the activities of these bodies. there is
wide spread desire among our people for
more and better roadways. Kansas people
want good roads; Kansas people will get
them. -7s :
So 1t seems to particularly fitting
that Kansas should be one of the first
states to begin systematic campaign for
the improvement of her highways
Therefore, l, Arthur Capper, governor of
Kansas. take pleasure in inviting the farm
terested in the cause of good roads. to meet
In Topeka on Wednesday, September 49,
1916, to discuss ways and means of further
ing the good roads movement.

Thought College Stars
Reached Limit in 1896
Records Of the Heyday of Wefers Were Regarded as
the Last Word-A Comparison Showing
Superiority of Athletes of 1916.

Arthur pufrey. one OF the worlds
greatest sprinters. has followed the a,h-
letes Of to-day very closely and analyss .
and compares the work OF the present
day stars with the winners twentr
years ago.
Are the college athletes to-day
faster than they were twenty years
ago?' asks Duffry. This question Is
being hashcd ana rehashed all along the
line I'm the amateur athletic game. Ever
since Ted Ncrel tn, Bob simpson. Ailic
Mucks and a few more OF the leading
modern stars have pIt up such sensa-
tional performnnces the query will not
down. But in looking through the feats
Of the college athletes OF to-day as
compared with those Of twenty Years
= IL j. n very easy matter to decide.
In fact. there is hardly any chance for
comparison.
Back twenty years ago in the inter-
colleriatcs of 1896 1t was thought at
that time that the collegiate athletes
were about the fastest performers that
ever happened. Il was believed that the
limit Of human speed II endurance had
about been reached. but since that year,
one by one. have the records IN the df-
ferent events been broken. while II was
