Gentlemen:

Gentlemen:
Pursuant to your order of record
at the regular session of September
2, 1919, l have made reconnois-
ance survey Of the Huntersville road
| from the Anthonys Creek-White Sui
phur districts line, at the divide"
to Columbia Sulphur Springs.
The County Court has been petit
toned by G. L. Clark ct ais to sub
nit proposition, bonding Anthonys
Creek district for the Improvement
of this road, to the extent Of apply
ing thereon the amount of $27,SOO,
l beg to report as follows:
1t is approximately fourteen miles
from the Divide" to Columbia Sui
phur Springs by the present road,
which in a general way follows the
we'll defined lines Of drainage. From
Nicola to Columbia Sulphur Springs
the present road crosses and re-
crosses Anthonys Creek with mo-
notonous regularity, necessitating
either revision of the present road
or the construction Of numerous
bridges. Revision is in some cases,
easily possible and economical where
no damage accrues to property isolat-
ed by the change.
Roadway, 70 feet wide, cuts.
Roadway, "a feet wide, fills.
Grade, per cent maximum.
Right of way 40 feet.
Alignment, safe to auto traffic.
Drainage, ample to provide quick
disposal OF surface and underground
water.
Estimate based on above specifi-
cations.
Average damage and fencing per
mile 100000
Average excavation per mile 100000
Drain pipe in place PEI mile 10000
: Bridges 80. 10000
$4,000
The above estimate contemplates
the construction Of a first class, well
graded road and is necessarily ex-
pensive.
1t is possible to very materially
improve the present road with only
incidental changes of grade and al
lignment.
The following estimate is based
upon:-
Width of road 20 feet.
Maximum grade 8 per cent.
Elevated fords for creek crossings.
Nine foot gravel pavement.

PENSIONS

The last lingering argument against

forcemcnt Il being answered In q very
practical way through the establish
mont OF motl1ers' pensions, says the
National Child Labor COMMITTEES In
statement showing the growing popu-
lArity Of this form Of relief. In 1913

The primary object Of these laws.
says the committee. IN to maintain the
home for the sake Of society and OF
the children. Through the death OF
the husband and father. or his in
capacitation by illness. or his deser-
ton, the self-support Of the family
falls upon the mother and children.
II the Children are put In an institu-
ton. or II tho mother goes ont to
work ana leaves the children NJ home
uncAred for. or II she stays Mt home
with the children and starves with
them. the home life h weakened or
wrecked. School authorities say that
when children stay away from school
and the truAnt ofYicer looks them mp.
Il ~ almost always found that they
hack home care. and usually X Ia be-
cause the mother must 80 out to work
It II sometimes asserted that a
hardship h imposed by child labor
laws ON families In which the wages
Of the children are needed for the
family support Many such laws pro-
vide exemption on the ground OF pow
erty. But II the children join the
ranks OF child labor they are sub
3ected TO al its physical and moral
dangerS and are deprived Of the edu-
cation which In \ democracy In sup
posed to be the right OF every boy

Aotherx pensions are q practical
way ~ meeting the situation. N they
prevent the home from being broken

where the mother liz inefficient or Inn
