the stat highway commission law,
which Vas secured by the State Au-
tomobile association at the last ses-
sion OF the legislature
Too much credit cannot be given
TO the state highway commission
and particularly to L. II. Wright,
the director, who has made possible
the early announcement of this pro-
posed system. This announcement
will put county commissioners in a
position TO know just what road the
state will take over and build and
maintain under the new law, which
provides that the commission desig-
nate and take over these roads not
later than April, 1920.
Mr. Elrod when seen today, said:
II am glad TO furnish The News
Times with a copy Of the official
map showing the new state highway

we have over 200 members in
South Bend. 10 which we have
pledged our assistance in securing
certain stretches OF road, all of
which are incorporated in the new

some work between South Bend and
plymouth and at least six miles
along the Lincoln highway out Of
Goshen. We are endeavoring TO
convince the commission that more
work should be done along the Lin
coin highway this year. A program
as announced by Mr.. Wright is to
let approximately 100 miles this
year and have additional 400 miles
under contract by January, with a
total of 500 miles by March. 1920.
a complete survey will be made
of the new system by the highway
engineers and construction will pro-
coed on the basis Of the finding of
this survey, roads that are in
worse being repaired or rebuilt
I'm the order OF their condition.
This will be fair and in my opinion
the entire state highway system is
fair and judiciously laid out, and I
want to urge that the public uphold
the acts OF the commission in this
system. Few people can realize the
terrible task the commission has
and tho influence IL has to contend
with feel that South Bend is

north and south road. as well as the
Lincoln highway. by virtue of their
present conditions. will lie improved

The Silent Personality

Onward does the world swccp--its
most dominating forces being those
left behind.
Those who understood the cost
who faced kind of inevitable fail
ure, knowing that it was all the while
wrapped with success, wrapped with
winning-thosc to whom nothing but
the breath of Victory could be vital
air at all.
The Mother watching, waiting,
praying; the Builder at his isolated
desk planning, planning; the Writer
behind burning lights and in obscure
corners dreaming, thinking-and
knowing that the product of his brain
must livc--thesc are the Silent Per-
sonalitics that rule the world!
To such ones, unfortunately, how
ever, few cheers, few bouquets, few
pats upon the back 90 come, till the
restless mechanism Of human power
and activity is givca more silent OBJ
security in dreamless sleep.
1t is greater thing to build a
nation than to run it. 1t is a much
finer thing to shape human char
acter than it is to enjoy the p'audits
that that character is able to attract.
The securest thing in human life is
to work in the silent behind-where
all fear for selfish grandeur is absent.
The people in this town, living 81
lent lives of service, arc the ones who
make this town-as we'll as every
town. And in every activity of daily
endeavor, those tasks being perform
ed without fuss or fury, are the tasks
being reckoned with by the watching
eyes of the Great Unseen. For
Behind the dim unknown,
Standeth God within the shadow,
Keeping watch above His own"
