SECRETARY GOT HIS CIGARS
Good Work to Credit of Knights of

British Isles.

Edward A. Ryan, knights Of Column
bus secretary, who returned from Eng
land recently, tells of receiving two
boxes of cigars sent by Scrgt. G. NJ
Summers Of Auburn, Ind. with no adj
dress other than a snapshot of Mr.
Ryan I'm group Of soldiers. The cigars
ana snapshot were sent 10 Edgar

Sioncr in the British isles. and the
soldier asked Mr. Sharp to give the
cigars To the man i'm the picture
around whose photograph he had
drawn line. Mr. Sharp recognized
Mr.. Ryan and sent the cigars TO him.
The picture was taken when Mr. RYAN
was helping the soldiers see London.
Summers wrote that he desired "to
give the cigars to the X. of G. man
who had taken him sightseeing around
England when he was clean broke"

Measures Wear of Roads.

one One-thOusandth of an inch. In
order to form n base to which meas
urements can be referred from year
to year, brass plugs are set i'm the
pavement where readings are desired.
Readings are taken by resting the
bearing plates on the roads surface
ana allowing the plunger to rest on
the base plate of the plug. The in
strument is plumbed with the aid of
level and the spanner bar is held
parallel to the center line of the road.
Other readings may be taken with the
bar at right angles to the center line
of the road.
An important advantage of this in
strument is that accurate data can be
acquired rapidly and without inter
rupting traffic. The base plate in the
pavement is protected between read
ings by covering it with cotton waste
and topping with putty. The brass
plugs are readily set in any pavement
while 1t is being laid, and at any fu-
ture time by drilling holes with star
drills and setting the plug in cement
grout.
