PIN MONEY.
How . Quaint Explanation Of Il Be-
came Current.

How . Quaint Explanation Of Il Be-
came Current.
The term pin money" dates back
to the seventeenth century. when the
modern pin was invented. After that
time the maker was allowed to sell
them openly only on Jan. l and 2. so
that court ladies and fashionable
danes alike were compelled to buy a
large quantity to last them over the
year. So extremely important was
this yearly purchase that husbands
gave their wives large sums OF money
for the pins. By and by pins became
cheaper and cheaper. and women spent
their allowance on other vanities, but
the term pin money" remained In use
for all spending" money.
The expression salt money" is an
other such. This dates very far back
when the Roman workers in the salt
mines were paid in salt. The salt they
got in return for their lab0rs was
called In Latin "salariuin," or salt al
lowance. The word salarium later on
was applied to the fees men got for odd
Jobs. For instance. the Roman noble
would say, For patching my toga !
will give the fellow q slight salarium-
a bit of money to buy salt with" FL
nally salarium came to mean wages,
salary, what 1t does today. When we
say "a man is not worth his salt" We
mean that he Il not worth his salary
or wages.

Graveled Roads VS. permanent"
Roads

have heard considerable discus
sion lately concerning the policy Of
our state highway commission in
constructing the kind Of roads 1t has
decided upon, and 1t Ia often argued
that the only type of road Is the 40
called permanent road, the one that
needs no maintenance.
II one will take n pencil and do a
little figuring, he can easily convince
himself that the policy OF the state
highway commission Ia the correct
one. Let us consider first of all the
expensive type of road construction,
such as concrete, or the best grades
of macadam. This type Of road will
cost approximately 10000 per mile
and let us suppose that the cost OF
construction is met by issuing D-year
AZ per cent bonds. The annual ex-
pense on account of this first cost
would be about $3.50 per mile. And
these roads will need some mainten-
-nce, possibly not much over $50 per
mile per year. This hangs the totnl
cost up to about $3.50 annually per
mile for the expansive or so-called
permanent type Of road.
Now take well constructed gravel
road and the cost for this road will
run about 1900 per mile for con-
struction. figuring again on basis of
D-year AZ per cent bonds and the
annual account for first cost will be
1910 per mile. The cost for maintain
ing these roads II properly done, runs
up pretty high and it can be well
done with an expenditure OF about
$24O per mile per year.
This makes II total annual cost then
for the surfaced road OF approximate
ly $3.50 annually per mile. A com,
parison of these two annual costs
show $3.50 per mile per year la favor
of the cheaper roads.-E. b. House,

A Bankers View

The following interesting report
sent out by the Henry Clews banking
house of Wall Street would indicate
that the German submarine policy
has been working less havoc than the
average American had believed, 1t
says:
The war drags on with Its weary
waste of life and property. Peace Ia
still the subject Of active discussion;
for it is the one end which all nations
seek, and yet it's realization still
seems remote. Germany evidently
wants peace and wants 1t badly; not
only because of long continued ex-
baustion and threatened breakdown,
but also because she would rather
discuss terms while In q good position
for making concessions and trades.
SO long rs she holds portions of
France, Belgium, Russia and south
western Europe, she is better able to
negotiate than when these are lost,
rs they must be ultimately. Our own
preparations are being pushed upon .
most vigorous and extensive scale,
and the determination to do our full
share will unquestionably grow as
time progresses, particularly when
the reality OF the. struggle dawns
upon that portion Of our people who
have not even yet awakened to the
great issues at stake, nor to the grav-
ity Of the situation. The greatest
hope for peace at present rests In the
possibility Of a collapse of some sort
within the ranks of German mil
itarisn, or In the withdrawal of some
of the central powers from the war.
Again the submarine campaign
has met its answer in our foreign
trade returns. During the fiscal year
ending June 30, our overseas trade
aggregated $3.50, OOO, 600 which WAS
the largest total OH record, and ex-
ceeded the previous record of 1918 by
over ~. 400 OOO.O The relative i'm
potence OF the submarine WAS further
illustrated by the fact that our ex-
ports, which are naturally objects Of
keener attack than imports. amount
ed to 1929. OOO,OO0 or 1880, OOO, 600
