System Successful.
This system has been in effect since
April. 1918, during which time it has
proved very successful. Prior to the
Inauguration of the system, no street
was free CT chuck holes and sunken
trenches. Some of these sunken
trenches dated back as far as one
could remember. At the present time
there is hardly sunken ditch to be
found in any street In the city.
The majority OF openings made are
in macadam streets. These are re-
paired by a special repair gang, con-
Isisting of the driver Of the repair
wagon and two assistants. In the
wagon is carried quantity Of crushed
stone and sand, together with the
necessary tools. Behind the wagon
a tar heating kettle is hauled, which
has a capacity Of about one and one
half barrels.
Following IL some cost data on re-
pairing trenches with tarvia. These

USE OF NEWSPRINT
IS SOARING IN U. s.

WASHINGTON. Jan. 2.-Consump-
ton of newsprint paper in the United
States during the last three months
reached a record-breaking point along
with prices, the Federal Trade Com
mission reported in statement issued
today. The average cost of newsprint
at mills at the beginning Of December
was $3.90 a hundred, the commission
reported as against 1918 year ago.
In 1916 the price was $1.S8, the lowest
in several years.
High prices failed to cut down the
consumption, however. and the COM
mission estimated that in 1919, IA per
cent more newsprint was used than in
1918.
During the fourth quarter of 1919
particularly. newsprint consumption
was running up, and the commission
said that the increase then over the
similar period in 1918 had been be-
tween as and 30 per cent.
December figures have not yet been
tabulated. In November, 1919. the 727
publishers reporting to the commits
sion used 161.602 tons Of newsprint,
compared with 123.S74 tons In Novem-
Der, 1918.

thoughts Of "arid" New York occurred
to Americans who are in tho city.
Every now and then, at the Adlon

to remark: II wonder what they are

Berlin did not suffer any dearth OF

anticipation of luxury and turnover
