GOOD ROADS T0
 AWAIT WORD IF |. FEDERAL EXPERT
Important Question Taken
 Up By Supervisors and Laid Over Until Result of Investigation Is Known

Taking the position that the Notation of a S, ,000, 900 bond issue for good roads would be in competition with the gov ernment issues of bonds and further more that in the building of roads labor would be withdrawn from industry, certain members of the recently ap pointed highway commission made it plain to the board of supervisors yes terday that they did not believe the movement compatible with public in terest
 That the supervisors share the same view was apparent during the course of the conference and it is understood that if it is not mandatory for the board to call the bond election the mat ter might be dropped. The expense in volved in calling the election would be several thousand dollars and leaders, in the good roads movement, men who waged the campaign for the bond is sue now are most insistent that public Improvements be dropped in order that capital and labor be conserved for the government.
 Definite action was postponed by the board at the suggestion of Dwight B. Heard who reminded the members that MT. Lynch, a practical road man. had been sent out to make a report from Washington. H. J. McClung agent for the Federal Reserve bank agreed with MT. Heard that the Wash ington report should be considered before the supervisors take final steps in the matter
 MT. Heard, who has recently returned from the national capital while there took occasion to learn Washington viewpoint. He stated that according to MT. Hoover's idea, in an agricultural community if the building of good roads stimulated production the enterprise should receive favorable consideration MT. Heard declared that if good roads mean saving in the cost of market ing, the construction of such highways was justifiable.
 MT. Heard spoke of the new rule securities in excess of $500,000 which are now referred to the treasury de- partment and by it to the Capital Is- tues committee for investigation.
 Lin B. Orme, appointed by the board member of the highway commission and one of the good road leaders ir the county, insisted that it would be ridiculous to vote bonds to use 1T the future. He admitted that goot roads were needed but that there were many other things needed that were not right or practical during war From a patriotic viewpoint he did not con. slder 1t right to proceed with the cleo ton although he had been decidedly in favor of it before he realized i would interfere with the government He stated that by September the ful effect of the draft would be felt-tha public opinion had changed in regar, to many things and that others wh, 1 were just as staunch advocates of goo, l roads as he had been and still was. be

"Watch Your Step"


 Louis B. Jacobs classy company of real musical comedy stars will return to the Elks theater Wednesday in a new offering of a Broadway revue en- titled Watch Your Step" This is in the style of the latest approved con- struction of musical comedy being de- void of plot and designed for amuse- ment purposes principally, being rath- CT a revue of vaudeville specialties. funny situations and the very latest song novelties.
 No one is better able to produce this character of entertainment than Jacobs who has made a study of musical com edy for years and has kept apace with the times. Jacobs says that this char acters of musical comedy has made the Winter Garden and the Ziegfield Fol lies American institutions and with his present cast of exceptionally talented principals, he is enabled to give Phoe- nix that which is popular in the metropolis, while it is popular.
 "Allah's Holiday is the big musical novelty in the show sung by Eunice Gilman, assisted by the McMartin Sis ters in their oriental dance, and the chorus, gorgeously costumed in all the splendor of the Far East.
 The chorus is by far the most beau tiful and shapely ever seen here and Jacobs has brought an innovation in his use of the larger type of show girls as well as the ponies. Anna Held has never had a set of girls more pleasing to the eye than the Jacobs chorus. which possesses some rare voices as well as delightful figures.
 The entire strength of the company in stunts which they excel is employed to make Watch Your Step" one round l of laughter.

Barrymore with the tra- ditional consistency of the great fam fly of actors from whence he came, endows the Hornung thief with a dis tinction that makes one forget that he is taker of other peoples goods.

ARKEN
YOUR GRAY HAIR
Look years younger Use Grand
mothers recipe of Sage Tea and
Sulphur and nobody will know.

The use of Sage and Sulphur for re-
storing faded. gray hair to its natural
color dates back to grandmother's
time. She used it to keep her hair
beautifully dark, glossy and attrac-
tive. Whenever her hair took on
that dull, faded or streaked appear
ance, this simple mixture was applied
with wonderful effect.
But brewing at home Is mussy and
out-of-date. Nowadays, by asking at
any drug store for a bottle of
''Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound you will get this famous old
preparation improved by the addi-
ton Of other ingredients, which can
be depended upon to restore natural
color and beauty to the hair.
A well-known downtown druggist
says it darkens the hair so naturally
and evenly that nobody can tell it has
been applied. You simply dampen a
sponge or soft brush with 1t and draw
this through your hair, taking one
strand at a time. BY morning the
era hair disappears. and after an
other application or two. it becomes
beautifully dark and glossy.
Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur Com
pound is a delightful toilet requisite
for. those who desire a more youthful
appearance. It is not intended for
the cure, mitigation or prevention Of

London, April 1a,-(correspond-

committee. This explanation is given
for the movement set on foot by the
International Red Cross society of
Geneva to bandon the use OF the gas
in fighting. 1t is asserted that the: in

listed to bring about this end. German
pasifists in Switzerland are strongly
supporting the, attempt to-, save the
their own coin. 4
when the Germans introduced this
new and deadly means of warfare"
says the National War Aims commit
tee, they put into the hands Of! their
enemies a weapon which could be
used against themselves with terrible
effect. The use of poison gas in clouds
is entirely dependent on the direction
of the wind "A study of the meteoro-
logical records of northeastern
France for period of ten years pre-
vious to 1915 would have shown them
that for every day OF which the wind
blows from the east or northeast, the
directions necessary to allow the Ger
mans to use gas; there are at least
six days on which it blows from the
west or southwest, the quarter favor

winds favorable to the enemy and
their ipreponderancc even in those

One OF the Anti-saloon league
arguments against the liquor industry
in Michigan has been the amount OF
coal consumed. Last winter when
Michigan Industries were operated
under stringent coal conservation
rules, many schools throughout the
state had to close.
1t has been claimed that Michigan
breweries used. more than a quarter
of. a million tons, of coal during the
last year covered by n internal
revenue report. This estimate is
partly based on a statement credited
to f.. u. Leach. assistant State Fuel
Administrator Of Ohio, who was quot.
ed as saying that reports indicated
Ohio breweries consumed practically
a pound of coal to brew q pint OF
beer.
If it is correct Michigan brewers
would have consumed about 100000
tons OF coal to turn out 5~61,246.o40
pints Of beer in h year 1916-l7.
