Jennings Likes States
Roads; Better Than Others

After a trip of 1000 miles over roads
in New Jersey, Delsw are and New York
State President William Jennings. of
the William Penn Highway, says that
the roads of Pennsylvania will stand
comparison with the highways in these
other States.
"All of Pennsylvania roads found
better than New Jerseys" said Mr..
Jennings. "Our hard surfaced high
ways are as fine as New Yorks. al
though perhaps not so numerous. New
Yorks dirt roads may be a little better
than ours but not much. 1 am much
pleased with the progress we are max
ing in Pennsylvania"
President Jennings has assurances
from the State Highway Department
that the work of constructing the new
William Penn in the bed of the old
canal near Speeceville, Dauphin county,
and the construction OF a culvert be-
meath the railroad tracks. will start in
the near future. When he makes his
September tours through the agricul-
turaI sections of Pennsylvania Cover
nor Brumbaugh will travel the William
Penn Highway for more or less of a
distance each time. He will pass
through the town of Dauphin for ex-
ample, four times. The streets of this
borough are in very bad shape and
public spirited citizens are making
haste to get them repaired before the
Governors tour.

Newsies Thank Jackson
For His Good Offices

delegation from the Newsboys'
Association visited John Price Jack
son, Commissioner of Labor and In
dustry, on Capitol Hill, this morning
for the purpose of expressing their ap-
probation of the cordial support given
by his department to the newsboys' in
the recent baseball game between the
newsboys' and the department. More
than S120 was taken in from the sale
of tickets, so per cent. of which were
sold by the officials and employees of
the department on the hill and the
remainder by the newsboys them
selves, the proceeds to be devoted to
the sick fund of the newsboys'. asso-
citation. President Koplovitz and his
brother Bernard, who is secretary of
the association, together with Mike
Klawansky and the Davidson boys all
made speeches expressive of, their
gratitude and the commissioner re-
sponded for the department.
The newsboys incidentally won the
baseball game and filed a request for
a return game in the summer of 1917.

London, Aug. II. - international

Simla.
THE people of Bengal showed their
desire to help in the war by organlz-
ing a stationary field hospital for ser,
vice in Mesopotamia. This hospltal
with the exception of officers com
manding was stated entirely by Ben
gall medical graduates and the per-
sonnel was entirely Bengali. After
doing excellent work, this hospital has
now been withdrawn, but scope Tor
the national and patriotic aspirations
of the Bengalis has been afforded by
the raising of a double company OF
them. 1t will be trained on the IRON
tier and when fit for service Will be
sent to the front for active operations.
The result of this experiment will be
watched with interest, Besides the
Bengalis three double companies OF
Indian Christians recruited for the
Punjab have recently been raised and
are doing well.
mo less than Indian officers and
soldiers have now earned the Victoria
Cross and twenty-seven have gained
the military cross.
"All classes of creeds throughout
the entire country held intercession
services on August 4. praying in the
Churches, mosques and temples for
success for the British arms. In GER
tain parts offertories were set aside for
the aid of British prisoners in Ger

Relations between the governments
of India and Afghanistan continue to
be of the friendliest character and the
latter is scrupulously maintaining an
attitude of neutrality which was prom
lsed at the beginning of the war and
subsequently reaffirmed. The north
west frontier, partly in consequence
of friendly relations with Afghanistan
and partly owing to the punishment

sections and partly owing to the eX-
posure of German attempts to intro
duce the religious element into the
war. is enjoying unprecedented peace

ROADS TO SOMEWHERE
A New and Interesting Serie
By GRACE DARLING

attracted by the roads of love that
are marked dangerous" at every
curve and that are full of risk.
They are adventures in love, and
to travel is strewn with the broken
hearts of the women who have gone
before them does not deter them or
turn them back.
The Fatal. Error
These are the girls who marry
drunkards, and rogues, and ne'er do
wells, and men who are afflicted
with tempers and tuberculosis. and
all the other ills to which the flesh
and spirit are heir. The more of a
dark brown past and dismal future
man has the more fascinating he
is to this type of girl because he
offers to her the same allure that a
hard and rocky road does to a GER
tain kind of traveller.
Nothing that any one can say will
keep the feminine mountain climber
in love from risking her neck and
her happiness by marrying the man
she shouldn't, but / do say this to
her - be a sport. If you deliberately
/ choose the stiff road, keep to it
without whining. Don't wall and
weep because your drunkard drinks,
or your Lothario has a weakness for
pretty faces, or your loafer won't
work. Play the game.
And as my first danger signal was
erected for sweet-and-twenty, so my
last is far sacred-and-thirty The
young girl is in danger because she
thinks that in every path she has
discovered Lovers Lane. The
woman of thirty is in danger be-
| cause she has gotten so far along
I the road without seeing he cross
! begins to fear she has missed it en-
tirely, that she has passed it by
without seeing it. so she is likely to
turn down the next road, no matter
how unattractive 1t is, nor where
! it will land her.
! BY the time a woman is thirty
nearly all of her girlhood friends
beauX begin to fall off, and the
snips of debutantes commence
| treating her with respect that is a
deadly insult in itself. Some day
she discovers pucker at the corner
! of her eyes and a white hair, and
! with shock she realizes that she
is getting on" in life.
Then it is that she gets into a
panic and marries the widower
with seven small children, or the
faithful old suitor she has refused
/ forty times and for whom she has
only a tolerant liking instead of
love, or any other man who happens
to be on the spot. She is scared. She
loses her head and turns down the
wrong road that leads to lifelong
regret, when If she had only gone a
little further she would have found
the path that would have taken her
straight to the husband and home of
her ideal.
SO, | say, go warily, girls along
the road of love. 1t leads to the
haven of bliss and hearts desire,
! but there are many dangerous
curves in the road, and it's the
easiest road in all the world on
which to lose your way.

This is suit that is so simple that any
mother who can sew can make it, yet it
shows very new and smart features. The
straight trousers are the preferred ones
for the little boys. The blouse is per-
fectly straight but held in place by means
of the belt, and the shield is buttoned into
place. Here, blue linen with a crepe
finish is trimmed with white linen of a
plain weave. The contrast of materials
as we'll as of color is good one but this is
a suit that can be copied in galatea or in
gingham, in linen or in pongee or in the
silks that are used for boys suits, if some
thing very dressy is wanted. 1t is the
material chosen that will determine its
use. In style and in cut, it is appropriate
for every occasion of the little boys life.
Made of gingham it will be a playtime
suit. If it were made of white ribbed
silk it could be used for the most formal
occasions, but in the latter case. the
pocket would be omitted.
For the year size will be needed, 4
yards of material 27 inches wide, 3 yards
80 or ~ yards "A, with q yard SO inches
wide to trim as illustrated.

Copyright, 1916, International News
Service)
The one road that every mothers
daughter of us most desires to travel
is Lovers Lane.
y In our youth we may like to take
a flying excursion into the busi-
ness world. or to go adventuring
for a little time after a career of
fame, but for real life journey we
all plan to set our feet in the
sweet, quiet path of love that ends
in home and husband, and children.
Every woman is seeking this way
to love. and the most pitiful thing
on earth is that she is so anxious
to find it that she often deceives her
self into believing that any fiowery
pathway leads to her destination.
She doesn't consult the road map
of common sense enough. She
doesn't take her bearings closely
enough or watch which way she is
going, and before she knows it she
has taken the wrong turn of the
road and is lost in the slough of
misery.
Now there are many roads that
seem to lead to love, but that really
only lead to sorrow and disappoint-
ment and disillusion, and j should
like to erect a few danger signals
along them for the guidance of the
wayfarers who are setting forth on
the Sentlmental journey.
The first is for young girls who
think that every path is the path
of love, and therefore safe for those
willing to rush blindly down it with
any man who offers to show them
the way.
The Tragic Path
These are the poor little wrecked
world with tears. I have heard
many of these girls tell the stories
of their journey - tell it with
painted lips that sneered and trem-
bled. 1t was always the same.
Foolish. ignorant young creatures
who were so eager to love and be
loved they took as guides on the
bypaths of intrigue, of secret mar
riages and unconventional living, into
which they lured girls who did not
know where they were going until it
was forever too late to turn back.
And scarcely less pathetic is the
case of the girl who marries the
first man who fires her immature
fancy only to find out that she. has
made one of the most terrible of all
mistakes and is tied for life to a
husband with whom she has not one
thought, or taste in common, and
that she must drag through all her
days the corpse of a dead love.
So I implore all girls, not to be in
too great a hurry to love. Don't
think every green path leads to
deathless affection, nor that every
man whose step matches yours in
dance is your predestined affinity.
Travel far along the highroad of
life, and examine carefully many
roads and many men before you
finally take the turn that leads to
Lovers Lane. And be sure you have
got the right man with you for a
travelling companion.
Then there are girls of a fool
hardy turn of mind who are always

Curacao, Dutch West Indies, Aug.
II. - Details have reached here of
the disaster which occurred July 27
in. the fortress of La Vigia, at the
Venezuelan seaport of La Guayra,
causing the death of about twenty
persons. The powder magazine in the
fort, on the hill above La Guayra blew
up with a terrific explosion and a
shower of masonry debris and artillery
shells fell in all directions.
In the magazines were stored a
large quantity of six-inch shells and
hundreds of thousands of rifle cart
ridges. AS this ammunition exploded
there continued for three hours burst
ing of shells and cracking of cart
ridges.
The government made efforts to
suppress information concerning the
disaster. 1t is learned however, that
sixteen soldiers and two officers were
killed outright in the fort and that
one or two civilians met death in the
town from flying debris. One of the
officers who was under punishment
was confined in chains near one OF
the magazines. number of men
were injured. The official explanation
! is that it was due to spontaneous
combustion. The secretary of the gov
