SHOULD EMPLOY MEN
THE YEAR AROUND TO
DRAG THE HIGHWAYS

Topeka, Kans., Oct. S.-Men
should be employed the year
around to drag and properly care
for roads, rather than to carry
on the work spasmodically as at
present, according to NJ. w. Wat
sen, state highway engineer.
Mr.. Watson has just returned
from a 350-mile automobile trip
in the southeastern art of the state
and reports that many roads are
being dragged this late in the year
with the result that in many cases
they will be impossible this win
ter, by loosening the soil too much.
This is a result" Mr.. Watson
said, "of farmers being too busy
last spring putting in their crops
to work on the roads. Just after
a spring rain when it is a good
time for dragging it is also a good
time to pillow and farmers can not
be blamed if they look after their
immediate interests first. Now that
farm work is slack they are get
ting after the roads. but are doing
more harm than good.
For this reason a regular road
force should be employed. When
the men are not grading roads
they can fill in holes. trim weeds,
repair culverts and look after other
items of maintenance. rms would
not add to the expense OF keeping
IN the roads and the work would
be done Systematically and at the
right time"

SUPERB ACTING BY
CARPENTER, FRENCH
BOXER, IS FILMED

The elite of Washington society
forms the background for THE
Wonder Man." the Cole
super-special picture, starring
Georges Carpenter, idol of France
and European heavyweight cham
pion, which will be repeated today
and tomorrow at the "B" theater.
This unusual drama Of American
society, directed by John G. Adolf,
for Robertson-Cole, promises a re-
velation in motion pictures of the
newer and better sort. The versa
tility of Carpenter. according to
eminent critics who attended a re-
cent pre-review, will prove a great
surprise to lovers of the cinema
art.
Based on an intriguing story of
love and mystery, in which Car
pentier is given opportunity to dis
play his capacity as a boxer, a
sportsman and a gentleman of the
first order, THE Wonder Man."
should prove to be one of the most
commendable productions that the
"B" theater has ever presented. 1t
brought out big crowds at the
SlIbWS tlltl bOOl anu i've
ming, and there will be crowds at
the shows today and tomorrow.
Included in the picture is a box
ing bout, with men Of national and
international prominence forming
the audience. AT the time the box
ing scene was taken more than
1000 persons packed the studio.
This realistic scene. said to be the
most perfect of its kind ever filmed
in the history of the screen, shows
Carpenter in the ring for the first
time on this side of the Atlantic.
He fights four fast rounds with a
worthy opponent.
Among other commendable re-
ports on "The Wonder Man" re-
ceiyed from critics who witnessed
the pre-revew, is the sensation Gre
ated by the superb acting Of Car
pentier. His ability as an actor OF
the first magnitude promises to be
revelation to the lovers OF the
cinema art.

STATE G. O. p. rs WAGLNG
CAMPAIGN OF SILENCE; rs
1T BECAUSE 1T ISN'T AT
ALL PROUD OF ITS CASE?
(BY CLINTON p, ANDERSON,

Santa Fe, Oct. 3.--As Judge Mer-
rift c. Mechem has now been in
the field two weeks, il seems fair
to ask what sort of a campaign
| he and his hackers have conducted
in order TO decide what the voters
OF the state may expect in the re-
naming four weeks Of his trip
around the state.
The outstanding element is that
the republican press and the repub-
lican publicity bureau have appar-
entity decided that the wisest
method of handling the political
situation is through a Campaign
of silence"-not only silence as to
the utterances of the democratic
nominee but even as to the declar-
atoms and announcements, if any
have been made, of the repub. lean
standard bearer
The man in charge of republi-
can publicity in this state is editor
of one of the newspapers support
ing Mechem. Certainly he has
fair idea of where Mechem Is and
what he is saying. Under no cir
cumstances is it possible to believe
that his paper cannot secure in
formation about the Mechem meet
ings.
But if you will search the files
Of that paper from the issue of
September 81 when an item ap-
peared that Mechem had opened
his campaign at Espanola until
Saturday. October 2. when another
note was printed that Mechem had
spoken at Chama, you will find
little or nothing except these two
items concerning the whereabouts
of the Mechem party What is
more to the point, you will not
find a news story giving a single
word that Mechem uttered.
During that same period, Rich
ard II. Hanna, democratic nomi-
nee for governor. has been on a.
tour of the state He has spoken
in towns near the place where the
paper is published. But the paper
has been strangely silent about his
appearances. 1t has not even car
ried to its readers the fact that he
was in the vicinity or given toI
them the gist Of his remarks. This
is not due to the fact that the in
formation cannot be secured, for
democratic headquarters is parti-
cularly glad to furnish news of
their campaign parties to papers
desiring such service.
The same can hardly be said
truthfully about Republican head
quarters. If republican papers
know where Mechem is and are IN
a position to learn the clrcum
stances of his meetings and SUI
remain silent, it would seem that
republican headquarters is eXerunS

iican meetings as we'll as demo-

Today Mrs. Blaidsell is living at

her without the camp
Her manner is cheerful, almost
vivacious; her mental energy UNI

and decisive as those Of a person
in perfect health; and the skin OF
her hand, as The Associated Press
representative took it in parting Is
soft and smooth as a baby's. -.
