men placed in charge of road work by local authorities and the second re- quiring the submission of plans by the
 local authority to the state department for approval before work can be un-
 dertaken. The Illinois plan IS excellent
 in this respect, providing that all road
 work not done under the immediate
 supervision of the state highway com
 mission shall be performed under men
 whose fitness it has determined by
 competitive examination.
 There is very little uniformity in legislation governing the cooperation of state highway departments with lical highway officials. This is un- doubtedly due to the tendency of law
 makers to add the highway department 1 legislation to existing road statutes. Any legislative committee instructed l to draft laws for the organization or | reorganization Of a state highway de- l partment should also be impowered to 1 report on amendments to existing laws
 relating to local roads. sAs an instance 1 of excellent legislation of this sort each

Needs Men for Policemen and Flremcn'
but Nobody Is Trying to Hog tho
JOBS at This limo
Seems.
CHANGE r o OLD TIMES
Then One Of tho Woes Of a City Adj
mlnistration Was the Choosing
Of Men for places on
the Payroll.

The department of public safety OF
tho city of Keokuk wants To nire
some men.
1t wants them pretty badly for the
police and the fire departments.
4 II much prefers discharged sol
diers and will give them the prefer
ence.
But nobody-soldiers or civilians
seems to banker after h jobs whicn
used TO be bones of contention.
The civil service board OF heokuk
held an examination yesterday, ana
only three men appeared for it-and
one OF them was past the & limit.
Next Monday at 10 O'Clock the
board will examine another set or
candidates-if they appear as appli-
cants for appointment
Examinations are Practical.
These examinations are nothing
like these held for entrance to a
college. They are like the
examination OF a member OF q secret
order wishing TO enter a strange
lodge. They are designed TO ascer-
tain whether the applicant will make
IN reasonably good policeman or q
properly good fireman, and not TO
tell how much or how little he knows
about arithmetic or geography.
/ He IS expected 10 know how 70 go
from the city hall 70 Sixth and Nor.
gan street by the shortest route. and
10 be able TO tell how many pairs OF
pants are in a grip after he counts
them; in case OF \ fireman he IS ex-
peeted TO know how 10 obey orders
rapidly and exactly. and 70 be able
TO climb q ladder and 3 hundred
yards without becoming exhausted.
Returned Soldiers Preferred.
Perhaps il is s. about the
examinations because they are called
examinations" said Ralph B. Smith,
member OF the civil service ornnis
sion today. and maybe they ought
10 be called something else.
Certainly we only try 70 ind on;
the applicants qualifications for the
denartuaeat he seeks 20 enter. and
we don't care how good s fist he
writes or how little he knows about
grammar,
