The very atmosphere is surchanged
with the spirit of good road con-
struction. All conditions seem ripe
for development, and 1919 will see
the entire country busy at provid-
ing highways and byways over
which the autoist may burn gaso-
line with maximum satisfaction
so far as roads are concerned.
The long pent desire for better
roads was just ready to break it's
bonds when the war stepped in and
suppressed it. 1t has grown none
the less intense with the delay, and
is taking the first opportunity to
assert itself with the opening of the
coming spring. The need of extra
ordinary and immediate employ
ment for the masses of men being
released from the army and the
peculiar .adaptibility of many of
them to outdoor work impels the
natural turning of the nation to
road construction on a gigantic
scale this year. The deisre of every
community to get its share in the
cut of the government highway
money which is only waiting for
takers is another incentive adding
to the general Impetus Nez Perez

be found In the teaching OF proper
methods of exercise, diet. personal
hygiene and the avoidance of infec-
tious diseases. Tuberculosis, typhoid

cial diseases will be handled and
discussed freely, babies will be
weighed, measured and graded. A

why there is more sickness in the
country districts than in towns.

actual physical examinations will
be the principal means of reaching
the public.
Certainly no movement Of great
er moment TO the State has ever
been inaugurated, and it means
only the cooperation of each eoun-
ty to make It a success.
Besides the general plan to reach
boys and girls, an intensive cam.
paign is to be waged in certain
counties which express a desire to
cooperate. These counties are to be
combed clean and no stone left un-
turned which will educate and en-.
tighten the people. Is our county
ready to cooperate? II so. let US
