ATTENDANCE OFFICER.

Miss Belva Sanders, recently chosen
by the county board Of education as
one of the two attendance officers pre-
scribed for York county under the pro-
visions of the educational act passed
at the last session Of the general as
sembIy, went to work in the office of
the superintendent Of education yes
terday.
The principal duty of the attendance
officer-the basic purpose for which
the office was established-is to look
after the complete observance Of the
compulsory attendance law. These Of
flcers will collect information Of all
children of school age, both white and
colored, and see. to 1t that they attend
school during the period specified In
the law or know the reason why.
Miss Saunders is an experienced
teacher and school supervisor, who
takes an enthusiastic interest in the
work, because Of q high appreciation
of it's importance, and those who know
her personally and who are acquainted
with her record, consider that the
county board Of education is to be con-
graduated on securing her services.
BY way of preliminary preparation
for the task before her, Miss Saunders
is now engaged in studying the an
nual reports as filed by the teachers of
the various schools, familiarizing her
self with the attendance record Of each
school and getting such other infor-
nation as may facilitate her work.
Under the law York county Is enti-
tied to two attendance officers, each
at a salary Of $1,000 a year; but so far
only one selection has been made.
There have been applications for the
other position, Of course, but as yet the
board has been unable to decide up an
additional choice
After familiarizing herself With the
school records as they are to be had in
the office Of the superintendent Of ed
ucation, 1t is the purpose of Miss Saun-
ders to visit every school house in the
county, get acquainted with the trus-
tees, meet as many Of the patrons as
possible, and compile rolls Of all the
children, from the cradle on through
the high school age.

most noticeable change in the routine
is the increasing number Of people

1t has for the last ten, 1t win blight
every form of activity by paralyzing

w. c. Brown, president of the New
York Central lines, said November 8,
1912: If cars are kept in motion at
the average speed of freight trains at
at present time. they would make on
the average four times the mileage
they do now. The trouble Is the cars,
as rule are held longer to load and
unload than the time involved in the
actual movement of the cars"-that Is,
the terminal had the railroad by the
throat and was choking three-quarters
of its efficiency out of it. The predic-
ton of Hill was absolutely correct.

and would have gone to the bitter end
of paralyzing every form of activity
had not the motor truck, which had
no terminals, gone to the rescue. Now
at this time, May l, 1919 another thing
has got the motor truck by the throat
and is choking three-Quarters Of its
efficiency out of 1t.
This time it is the dime museum
freak construction of our so-called
good roads, not by tying up the motor
truck as the locomotive was tied up
in the terminal, but by knock
ing it and its trailers to pieces thus
cutting short the life Of the rolling
stock, as well as making it move
slower and with not over one-quar-
ter of load over the imperfect sur
faces, increasing the cost of motor
truck transportation way beyond what
it ought to be for what the motor
truck does, as well as limiting the
amount it can do way down below the
normal, writes Frederic J. Nash, In
New York World Had these roads
been properly constructed they would
have gone to the stock exchanges and
been bought and sold there, like every
other kind of transportation securi-
ties. AS It is, they have gone to pieces
and left the bondholders, the states,
counties and townships, their bonds on
their hands and only scrap heap Of
bad roads to show for them. These
freak roads, had they been offered on
the stock exchanges with only them
selves as security would not have sold
for one cent on the dollar They are
built on the credit of the states, coun-
ties and townships through which
they passed. This at the rate of two
hundred millions of dollars per year.
A speed of $50 miles an hour on the
beach at Daytona, Fla, was made last
Lincoln's birthday, a rate of speed
which the locomotive has never been
able to reach. Anything beyond a
three-ton truck load Is more than a
freak highway can safely carry, while
the ordinary normal load Of the freight
car on its railroad is so tons. If these
few things could be combined in the
highway-absence of terminals, rate
of speed beyond that of the railroad,
a freight-carrying tonnage equal to
that Of the railroad, cost Of the up
keep less than that of the railroad,
this would multiply our present means
OF transportation seven or eight times
and give this country prosperity dur
ing the next dozen years such as we
have never even dreamed Of We
want to change our form of highway
construction over night and put our
highway securities on the stock ex-
changes and not our highways on the
dump heap. Highway stocks and
bonds based on the value Of this prop
erly-constructed highway will pay
higher rate of interest than the rail-
ways ever have, for it will do much
more work.

the food principals In their proper pro-
portion in each menu, or getting the
amounts In during the day IL lacking
in one meal, make 1t up In the next,
so that the days meals will give the
proper balance.
The amount of food to be taken by
individuals differs so greatly that
there Is no fixed rule that one may fol-
low. Age, climate, physical condition
as well as occupation are important
factors in determining the amount to
serve, but 1t is safe to say that In the
average dietary we may cut out one
third Of the food we daily consume,
masticate the two-thIrds twice as long
as is the habit and great benefit will
be noted In ones health. This adj
vice is only given to the well padded
Individual; those who are thin are so
because even if good eaters, the food
Is not assimilated.
When serving heavy main dish
with the accompanying vegetable or
two, the dessert should be light, one
easy of digestion and with little bulk.
If the main part of the meal is light,
not preceded by cream soup, let the
dessert be richer one.
The generous use of milk in desserts
will give a better balance to the din
ner In which only small amount or
meat is served, while at meatless
meals more milk may be used as well
as fish, cheese, beans and peas In or
