WORKING ON DIXIE HIGHWAY
In Illinois Improvement Will Extend
Over Distance of 54.5 Miles
Costing 1904, 700.

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
Will, 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
cost of $9O4,700 and the construc-
ton will be of concrete and bitumi-

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.

TRADE MARK IS OFFENSIVE
From Germany Americans Want Moth

Goods Doomed in U. S.
BY FREDERIC J. HASklN,
In CHICAGO Daily News.

Washington, D. C.-For the first
time in over so years, American stores
are practically emptied of German
toys. Only few bisque dolls re-
main. and in most cases these have
been carefully packed away until some
distant day when American toy buy
ers shall have become reconciled to
the trade mark 'Made in Germany"
Today this trade mark is not only
unpopular-it is offensive. Americans
will still buy Turkish rugs, Austrian
musical comedies and Bulgarian color
combinations, but from Germany they
want nothing but souvenirs of victory.

themselves evident in those spring
frocks that are made of printed cot

again to clothes that are truthfully de-
scribed as pretty. Not rich or snowy,
but just full of pretty touches, in color
and material and in style and Access

In cotton, there are English prints,
percale, printed wolfe, cotton foulard
and lawns to be reckoned, with for

naive and dainty. They provide many
lovely colers and are combined with
fine organdie in frocks that are charm

There is no such thing as dull mo-
ment among the new spring blouSes,
now entering in gay companies the
shops and stores. There is so great a
variety of styles in them that it is
not easy to pick out features that are
characteristic of the season. But there
is one item that is so universal in
them that it passes without NOTICES
taken as a matter Of course. That is
the sheerness of the materials used.
Except for the plain and regulation
shirtwaists of silk or linen, or cotton,
there are. only diaphanous stuffs in
blouses, with georgette crepe far in
the lead of all others.
Besides this feature of the styles,
there is q preponderance of round
neck models, and many of these fas-
ten on the shoulder. The narrow
shoulder yoke remains great favor
lite. Small, round crochet and small
pearl buttons are favored for fastening
and trimming; hemstitching, tucks and
very narrow Val lace, for ornamental
tion on the light blouses.
Dark colors, and black, in georgette
are shown made up over white net or
lace, and the reverse of this, black

Patching done in the proper manner

road drag, will maintain an old gravel

SO badly worn that an entire new sur
face is required. The gravel should
never be poorer than that forming the
