The Yale expositor. (Yale, St. Clair County, Mich.) 1894-current, 1917-08-30

All OF a sudden Pearl felt at ease
concerning this nameless and mysteri-
Gus lover OF hers and desired to be
alone to read Tokos letter.
II shall be waiting for you" she
murmured, all of her tenderness re-
viving, raising her lips for the kiss he
so plainly desired to give and receive
In return.
A few minutes later he drove out
OF the garage in her new runabout and
raced downward.
He stopped the machine in front of
the home OF a prominent trust COM
pany official and attorney, asking the
man who answered the doorbell for
Mr.. cambridge.
He was Immediately ushered into a
private library office. Here, alone, sat
thin, gray-haired, keen-eyed attor-
ney, who rose and bowed, ransacking
his brain to recall where he had seen
this visitor before, if ever.
"You are Mr.. cambridge, the Sc
nior" questioned the visitor, taking
the proffered chair on the other side
of the lawyers desk.
Mr.. cambridge inclined his head po-
litely. 81 did not get your manner"
NO" grimly. Then: you do not
recognize my face?"
II do and DON'T" confessed the en-
barrassed attorney.
His visitor suddenly picked up pen
ell and paper and scrubbed a name.
This he showed under the lawyers
eyes.
what !" calculated Mr.. cambridge,
leaping out of his chair, his eyes pop
ping, his face white and drawn. "Im-
possible, sir! That man is dead and
buried"
His visitor laughed heartily. 'He is
very much alive, Bainbridge," he
chuckled. "For am he. Come with
me. l will prove it."
But Mr.. cambridge drew back in
alarm, and looked as though he intend
ed to call for help to put an insane
person out of his house.
"You don't believe me-" queried his
caller, rising.
II can't" groaned the confused at
torney. "Yet l must confess there are
certain resemblances, but only in your
speech and about the eyes. 1 fear that
you must bring me conclusive proof,
for this is no tritling matter"
Suppose, Bainbridge, you call Miss
Pearl Dare on the telephone and in
quire about me-" the caller suggested,
now trifle impatient. II want to ask
several important questions which you
doubtless won't answer unless you are
convinced of my claim"
"a good idea !" exclaimed Mr.. Balm
bridge, and he FASTENED from the room
to do the talking elsewhere.
When he returned he grasped his
visitor by the hand in tight grip. He
was visibly affected and deeply apollo

SAVE COST OF MAINTENANCE
Highways Which Cost Most at First
Are Always Cheapest to Keep
In Good Condition.

(By r. W. GAY. Mississippi Experiment
Station)
With the recently awakened interest
in the cause of good roads the cues
ton of financing road building is of
first Importance. How road building
can be paid for is not the only serious
question, however, but which one of
several possible methods of construc-
ton will best suit the needs OF the
community and give the people the
best roads at as small cost as possible
within the limit of the available funds.
The first cost may be only n small
part Of the total. Roads must be
maintained in good condition. and the
cheapest road is the one that costs
least per year to build and keep in
shape for travel. In New York state
ii was found cheaper to expend S25. 900
mile I'm the construction of brick
highways than to pay from 81, 800 to
$4,000 a mile for macadam because
OF the difference in cost of upkeep
To save maintenance expense the
idea Of present economy must not he
allowed TO overshadow the importance
of building permanent highways. AS
n rule the roads which cost the most
at first will be the cheapest to main
tain.

verts are being constructed before ex-
pensive road surfacing is done, says
Indiana Farmer.
This work is often paid for out of
the annual tax levy for road and
bridge construction, and absorbs such
large part of the funds that too little
money is left for grading the surfac-
ing. Good bridges and culverts are
permanent structures, and the deputy
minister of highways of Ontario. Hon.
w. A. Mclean, has advised the taxpay-
ers of that province to pay for them
by bond issue where the total ex-
penditure for the purpose is large. In
such case he suggests compiling II
complete list of the bridges and Gull
verts needed, preparing plans and es-
Inmates for their construction, and
then financing the work so that its
cost will be equitably distributed over
n period of years rather than be con-
centrated on the taxpayers of few
years. Where there are few of these
structures and none is expensive, the
policy of paying for them out of the
annual tax levy cannot be criticized
in his opinion, for IL does not interfere
appreciably with satisfactory progress
in grading, drainage, surfacing and
maintenance.

BIG MAJORITY
FOR DRAFT BILL
Both Houses Pass Conservation
Measure After Long and
Hot Debate
GOES TO JOINT CONFERENCE
The Chief Difference in Two Houses
is over Ages Of the Men
to Be Drawn for
the Army.

Washington. - The American army
in the war against Germany will be
raised by conscription. The fight in
congress for the administration selec
tive draft measure was won after
days of the hottest kind of debate
when the house passed the bill by a
vote OF 397 TO "a.
The bill. in somewhat different
form, was passed later by the senate
by vote of 81 to s.
AS passed. the house bill would
draft single men between the ages of
Fl and 40 years. with the President
having authority TO designate which
ages shall be called to the colors first.
The senate measure would con
script single men between 81 and 27
years inclusive. This difference in the
provision will make it necessary for
the measure 10 be sent to joint con
ference of house and senate members,
where the ages prescribed may be al.
tered altogether.
BY unanimous vote an amendment
was included in the house bill TO in
crease the pay of enlisted men and
non-commissioned officers in the army
and in the National Guard by $500
a month, making the pay of enlisted
men 5000 a month.
