addition the splendid record he has
made as a soldier, he will seek to pre-

exercise of the same spirit, the same

splendidly in the service Of his coun-

The government is going to give
every man injured in it's service an
opportunity to do just that splendid
thing for himself. We have every con-
fidence that when the machinery Of
the rehabilitation training school gets

BUILDING ROADS

Generally speaking, we feel that we
are doing quite a bit in the way of
producing good roads. The facts are,
though, that we haven't scratched The
surface, insofar as the needs and the
results are concerned
We are just entering a new era in
road requirements The day of motor
traffic is just dawning We have built
a lot of roads and have thought they
were bearing lot of traffic, especial
ly since the development of the auto
mobile industry, but the great majori-
The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1918-12-18

| ty Of the roads we have built are
unsuited to the new conditions that
are developing.
| Within comparatively short time
motor trucks will be as common al
were lumber wagons fifteen years a1b
and many times more numerous. Far
mers will be doing all their hauling
with trucks, and 1t Is quite probah1
that many truck lines for freightin<
will be established, especially betwee4
towns with no direct railroad connec
lions.
This will demand roads with SUBJ
stantial foundations as well as hard
surfaces to withstand the heavy loads
that will be imposed upon them. The
greatest care must be taken with the
manner in which the foundation are
used the drainage needed, the founda-
ton laid. The day should be past when
foundations can be built by promiscu-
ously dumping mounds of sod, black
dirt and clay, smoothing this off and
then surfacing. Unless the founda-
ton is smooth and of uniform firm
ness, with all hummocks and soft
spots eliminated, hard, smooth sur
face is an utter impossibility.
Of equal Importance will be the
maintenance Of the roads after they
are built, and the demands in this re-
spect are as great as in the matter
of proper construction. We will have
to get away from the idea that roads
will take care of themselves. Not
only will consistent dragging be nee
essary, but every rut and ather break
must be promptly filled and repaired
to maintain uniformly hard surfaced
an dprevent the heavy traffic from
cutting the road to pieces. In this
matter the cost will be an investment
instead of an expense, for we will get
away from the habit of spending
thousands of dollars per mile to build
roads and then allowing them to go
to ruin for want of a little timely at
tention. The big cost is in the orig
inal construction, and if the roads
are not properly kept after they ere
built frequent rebuilding will be nee
essary while if the roads are given
comparatively little attention in the
matter of keeping the ruts filled and
the surface smooth the roads will last
Indefinitely.
Road building today presents a Zig
and intensely important problem, de-
mandiag the most earnest study and
consideration Of both roadbuilders and
other connected in any way with road
construction. This is as true from an
economic viewpoint as from those of
pleasure and convenience. Properly
built roads are not only more lasting
and therefore cheaper in the long rum
but without such roads the economy
of motor truck transportation will be.
1t is too late today to talk OF build
ing for the future for the future in
its relation to the motoriza..;en Of
traffic is already here. The use of
motor trucks will increase by leaps
and bounds as did the use of motor
pleasure cars, but right now we are
confronting urgent need of better
roads and vastly more miles of them.

 The increased effectiveness of the submarine patrols and operations off the British coast and in the Sor.u

 Apparently the Germans took care Tn each instance to give the crews a chance for their lives. Holding men aboard the raider under the conditions that surrounded her was an unusual display of humanity, 1t was pointed out which did not conform to Ger

About 80 women worked on refugee
clothing and hospital garments at
the Armory Tuesday afternoon.
The "Linen Shower" has been
safely packed in huge box and is
nearly ready to be shipped. There
was contributed over $146 besides a
large number of the articles asked
for. The committee of young la
dies have every reason to be proud of
the results of their efforts.
Some one has said that the Red
Cross organization is about the near
est thing to the Kingdom of Heaven
on earth, 1t surely is a part of it.
Then we should all wish to continue

USES FOR OLD JET

If you possess a box of old jet
trimming you possess trimming for
many of your winter clothes.
Suppose, for instance, you have
some rusty black lace or net spangled
With jet. A single jet flower cut out
rom the rusty background is smart
trimming for either a tailored hat of
hatter's plush or an evening hat of
nlaline. On chenille hat a jet or
nament with a bead tassel placed low
on one side of the crown is one of
the most favored trimmings.
Bits Of jet trimmings that are
freshened with colored beads, silver
or gold nail heads, or gold thread,
making charming bits for smart
blouses and evening gowns. A vestee
of jet and embroidery is often the
touch that ''makes' chic frock of
net, Georgette or chiffon. Black
Georgette made over white, rose, pale
yellow, lavender and even dull blue
are colors that are particularly effec-
tive when trimmed with a combina-
ton of black jet, beads and en-
broidery.
Jet makes a smart finish for almost
any black evening slipper. Satin,
velvet or giace kid pumps that have
worn rosettes, pump bows or other
ornaments can be freshened by using
a new jet ornament. Narrow jet
trimming may be shaped into buckle
effect and more elaborate nieces of
Jet furnish little floral motifs that
can be appiqued both onto the toe
and to the place formerly occupied
by the worn ornament
AS the beads drop off the edges of
jet trimming very easily unless Sc
curely fastened, be careful to sew
! every bit of the edge very securely
whether YOU are attaching it to frock,
hat or slipper.
