who have been patiently waiting FIR
the necessary detailed work that mus

WORKING ON DIXIE HIGHWAY
I'm Illinois Improvement Will Extend
Over Distance Of 54.5 Miles
Costing $eo4,7oo!

One OF the features Of the years
work will be the improvement Of the
Dixie highway, which will be done
by the states acting in cooperation
with the government. Thus in ILL.,
nois the highway will be improved
from the county line north through
VIII, Kankakee and Iroquois coun-
ties to the Vermilion county line
running south. This work will ex-
tend over a distance Of 54.5 miles at
6 cost of $9O4,7OO and the construc-
ton will be Of concrete and bitumi-
nous macadam. SM~
At the same time Georgia will be
working on the road from Atlanta
through to Macon, through Clayton,
Henry. Spaulding, Pike and Monroe
counties, a distance of seventy-two
miles and a continuation of the Dixie
line in that state. In Tennessee and
Kentucky projects will be under way
which will further serve to improve
this famous old highway which cuts
through the central section of the
country from north. to south.

HELPING THE SOLDIER

One thing the Red Cross Department
of Civilian Relief is doing these days
is to see that every crippled soldier
or sailor "gets back into the game
just as close to his original self as
silence can make him-that is the
idea of the government. H~E~
The government provides for the
fitting. replacing, and keeping in re-
pair of every artificial limb or ap.
pliance required. by it's crippled fight
ers. and the Red Cross is helping to
see that all who need these things
apply to Uncle Sam for them.
The excellence of these artificial az
juncts to the human body is remark
able. Miss Mary Ann Abel of the
Southern Division headquarters az
tended a baseball game in Washington
recently in which every member of
both teams had lost either a leg or
an arm and it was a good, close hare
fought game of. ball, too.

Senator Reed, of Missouri, pretends
to be a Democrat. He was elected as
a Democrat and his constituency ex-
poets him to act the part. But lie
isn't, and there's a reason, with the
Republicans, in an effort to destroy
him. So far as we know, Reed is the
only Democratic Senator who is op-
posing the League of Nations. And
he is not much of a Democrat.

Many opportunities for young wo-

the many ways is to take, training in

compensation after graduation is far
above the average of young women

The tax dodger may as we'll
emerge from his hiding place this
year, for there will be small chance
of escape. Rich and poor alike are
to receive a visit from the ak assess
or and all property is to be listed at
actual cash value. The purpose of
the new plan is not to increase the
rate, but to equalize the burden of
taxation. Inequalities are not to
be permitted and the man who
side-steps the truth in listing his
property will find himself in a very
bad plight when time for final ad-
justment rolls around. The authori-
ties are playing no favorites this

civiIize and Educate.

Good roads are civilizers and edu-

other good things. They bring in
creased land values. Above every
thing else, they bring good people.

roads has ever regretted it. Road

PATCHING IN RIGHT MANNER
Work Done Properly While Road Is
Wet and Followed by Drag Is
Superior Plan.

Patching done in the proper manner
when the road is wet, followed by a
road drag, will maintain an old gravel
road surface as good as new until it is
so badly worn that an entire new sur
face is required. The gravel should
never be poorer than that forming the
surface layer of the old road, and es-
pecially should not contain an excess
of clay.
