IN REBUTTAL.

few weeks ago we gave space to
letter concerning the road construction
now being carried on in this state This
letter was written by DR.. Geo. NJ. Twit-
chell and was printed in the Maine Farm
er. We are pleased to publish the reply
to the Doctor, which was written by Mr..
Paul D. Sargent, Chief Engineer of the
State Highway Department.
To the Editor of the Maine Farmer: |
have received clipping taken from the
Maine Farmer of a recent date which is
an article by DR.. G. M. Twitchell referr-
ing to the work of the Highway Commits
sion and the proposed bond issue for
highways. would like to ask, through
your columns, if DR.. Twitchel will back
up by specific instances roads which he
considers have been built as experiments
and tell US what roads have had a short
LIE. The only section Of state highway
that know of which the Commission
considers was not entirely successful is
short section between Greene and Lew
lston, which was constructed under war
time conditions and open to the public
before it was really completed. That
road has been put in thorough shape and
Is good at the present time, and the ex-
pense has not been unreasonable.
In discussing this question of whether
roads are standing up to the traffic
or not, it should be borne in mind that in
1913 there were 1885 automobiles register
ed in this state and 800 trucks The
number has increased each year and on
the first day of July 1919, there was 49,
500 passenger cars and 4,767 trucks regis
tered. These figures are in excess of the
total registrations of 1918 DR.. Twitch-
ell aud other critics should remember
that roads which were built in 1918 and
l9l4 and were adequate to the traffic of
those days are not adequate to present
day traffic requirements, except at high
maintenance cost.
am prepared to say that the State
Highway Commission of Maine is main
tanning the improved roads as we'll as the
improved roads in any state in the union
are being maintained.
In conversation with gentleman last
week, who had recently made $50 mile
automobile trip through New England, l
was told that the smoothest fifty miles of
hlghWsy the gentleman encountered was
between Boston and Worcester and the
next best fifty miles was between klttery
and Portland, Maine. We have had sim
liar statements made to us for several
, years past by tourists. Two letters were
received last week at the Office of the
Highway Commission, one from citizen
of New Jersey, and the other from citi-
zen of New York, both commencing the
Highway Department on the very re-
markable improvement which has been
made in the condition of the roads in this
state during the last six years. These
men compare the work of the State
Highway Commission of Maine with
that of the highway commissions OF other
states through which they travel in COM
ing from New York or New Jersey to
Maine, and, in consequence, are qualified
to speak from first hand knowledge

THE MOTHERS OF MEN.

The bravest battle that ever was fought.
Shall tell you where and when?
On the maps of the world you'll find it
not,
Twas fought by the mothers of men.
Nay, not with cannon or battle shot,
With the sword or nobler pen;
Nay, not with eloquent word or thought
From the mouths of wonderful men;
But deep in the walled-up woman's heart
OF woman who would not yield,
But briefly, silently bore her part
Lo, there is that battlefield
No marching troop, no bivouac song,
No banners to CLEAN and wave,
But OH those battles, they last so long,
From boyhood to the grave.
Yet faithful still as pride of stars
She fights in her walled-up town,
Fights on and on through the endless
wars,
Then silent, unseen, goes down.
Oh ye, with your cannon and battle shot
And soldiers to shout and praise,
| tell you the bravest battles fought
Were fought in these silent ways"
Joaquin Miller.

SANDYPOlNl.

The Santa Clara, Calf, Journal of
July End, has the following of interest to
residents in this vicinity:
The home of Mrs. Sarah Dunbar on
Market street was the setting for beau
tiful wedding last Saturday evening.
when her niece, Miss Ruth Carroll Meri-
thew of San Francisco, became the bride
of Mr.. Vernon Hastings Campbell of
Vallejo.
The ceremony was performed Just at
twilight when the soft rays of the setting
sun shed glow on the bridal party, as
the Rev. Charles Van Wyck Bedford of
the Presbyterian church, read the service
that made the young couple man and
wife. Promptly at 80 o'clock the brid-
al party descended the stairs to the
strains of Mendelsshon's wedding march,
with Miss Pearl Roll at the piano. Dress
ed IN fluffy white frocks, little Miss Doris
Davidson as flower girl and little Jean
Davidson as ring bearer, entered the
parlor, closely followed by Miss Myrtle
Roll as maid of honor, with Carroll Dun
bar as best man. Miss Rolls gown was
of soft crepe and her flowers were white
brides roses. The bride entered with
the groom and they took their place be-
ACoIh an CliCCllSC UOWel OIL leaLlery
ferns and Shasta daisies On either side
stood tall pedestal supporting gilded
baskets of daises and tied with filmy tulle
The bride was gowned in a simple
/ though modish frock of white crepe
fashioned in the popular ankle length anc
! cut slightly low at the neck. Her flow.
ers were a shower of delicate Cecil Breu.
ner roses.
During the ceremony, Mrs. Albert Dut-
ton of Oakland sweetly sang, ooh
| Promise Me"
hen as the twilight deepened into
dusk the reception rooms were Lighted
by tall lamps with pink shades, and here
the bride and groom received the con.
gratulations of some forty friends anl
relatives. A buffet supper was served in
