GOOD NEWs FOR MOTORIsTs.

From the Dover state News.
The announcement that the new con-
crete roadway between Dover and the
Cheswold road has been completed, and
is now open TO the travelling public, IS
Indeed good news for motorists, and
still more pleasing will be the announce
ment that the entire road from this
town TO Smyrna has been completed
doing away with all detours. In a news
article relative to the activities Of the
State Highway Department, which ap-
pears on the first page Of this issue or
the State News, It is pointed out that
the opening OF the DOver-CheswOld
road marks the beginning Of the COM
pletion Of the State highways I'm Della

pounded question as to whether or not

this portion Of the work will be prop
erly cared for.
Another interesting feature in the
Highway Departments announcement
is the fact that a standard guide sign
has been decided upon by the state
Highway Commission, and as soon as
the state highways are completed they
will post these signs 20 clearly direct
the traveller. 1t is explained that one
Of the main objections 10 the guide
signs al the present time Is that only
the local places are mentioned and
unless a person IS familiar with the
state the through traffic gets very lit
tie assistance from the local signs. In
locating the new guide signs each cross
road will serve as a blue book for the
traveller. This announcement will de
light the many motorists who have
puzzled over the present inadequate
signs many Of which are so weather
stained that it Is impossible 10 read
them and even the ones that are legible
are about as easy TO understand as a
Chinese puzzle. The new guide signs
will be an innovation that will be high
ly appreciated by the travelling public.

GOVERNMENT TO OPEN STORE
establishments to be Operated
Throughout Nation In Effort to
Reduce Cost of Living.

Washington, D. C.-AnnOuncement
has been made that retail stores for
the sale of household commodities in
cluded in the surplus stocks of the
war department will be established
September 25 throughout the country.
The stores will be located in depot
centers and other large cities and they
will accept and fill mail orders.
The present plan is to open stores
in the fourteen zone supply cities,
Boston, New York, Philadelphia, At
lanta, Baltimore, Jeffersonville, Chi
cago, st. Louis, New Orleans, San An
tonic, Omaha, Ell Paso, San Francisco
and Washington. The chain will be
extended to additional cities as rapid
ly as possible.
Continued purchase by the depart
ment of certain necessities so that
these stores may be continued in
definitely as part of the government
campaign against the high cost of liv-
ing is understood to be under con-
sideration.
Prices on all commodities offered
for sale will be so fixed as to prevent
discrimination between the purchasers
who buy over the counter and those
who purchase through the mail.
All mail orders will be delivered by
parcel post, but the policy of making
these sales through the post office de-
partment is to be discontinued. All
such orders will go directly to the
stores.
To expedite the mail order sales the
post office department has been asked
to establish sub-stations in each store.
Catalogues quoting prices and giving
the location of all stores are being
prepared and will be available at
every post office in the United States.

battle against hundreds of forest fires
sweeping over Montana and northern
