Roads to Prosperity
Planned in Illinois
CBy United Press,

Springfield, ILL.,. Dec. 24.-Illinois is
going to kill two birds with one
stone by taking care of its surplus Ia
Dor resulting from the wars end and
at the same time building a 100000
900 system of hard roads.
.itate leaders foresaw that the end
OF the war would create a labor sur
plus. At the same time there was an
agitation on foot for a statewide sys-
tenn of hard roads.
The two propositions were COM
bined in hard road bill and passed
by the last General Assembly The
legislative act Immediately was re-
ceived with favor because II not only
was planned to solve Illinois after
the-war labor problem, but at the
same time satisfy the demand OF
thousands of farmers, autoists and
manufacturers.
The proposition was planned before
the voters at the November elections
and was adopted with but little oppo.
sition
II is planned to construct approxi-
mate1y 1900 miles of hard roads
touching every county in the state.
The division OF highways now Is lay
ing Plans for tke opening OF work
probably next spring or as soon there
after as labor and material conditions
warrant.

sEsTowINe GIFTS IN SECRET
Practice Of Putting Out shoes and
atoekings Resulted From Plan
Of ST. Nicholas

Christmas stockings have come
down to US from the good ST. Nicholas,
who was a saint of the fourth century
Of the Christian era and was born De
cember Q, 342, In Lycia. Asia Minor.
He was regarded as especially the pa
tron saint Of children. young girls and
sailors. The Christmas stocking Gus
tom arose as follows: -4
It seems that st. Nicholas. who was
the archbishop Of Myra. lived In the
same town with an impoverished no
biemnn who. because he had no por-
tlons to give his daughters and, In
deed. no means with which to support
them. was about to sell them into a
life of sin. St. Nicholas. who was ac-
customed to dispense his large for
tune In gifts Of charity, resolved to res
cue the young women. As he ap-
preached their house, wondering how
he should proceed. the moon shone out
and displayed an open window. In
stnntiy ST. Nicholas threw n purse Of
gold In Mt this window which, falling
at the feet of the father OF the girls,
enabled him to portion his Oldest
daughter. The second time st. Mich
oins visited the house he also was able
to throw purse OF gold through IN
open window. thus providing for the
portion Of the second daughter. On
the third visit the father, watching for
his benefactor. cast himself nj the feet
Of the saint and cried:
"Oh, st. Nicholas, servant of God
why seek to hide thyself?"
The saint made the father promise
not to reveal his benefactions. From
this habit Of bestowIng gifts In secret
nnd under the cloak Of night arose the
practice of putting out shoes or stock
ings for the younger members of tho
fnmily SO that the good saint would be
able to fll them without being spIcd
on.
