TOTAL

The extent TO which federal aid has
been applied to the trails varies in
the different states. Naturally, the
Western states are using much more
Of the federal appointments in de-
veloping roads of this character than
the Eastern states. This is due to
the fact that the routes in the East
ern states already had been improved
to a large extent before the roads
were selected by the pathtinderS. This
was not true in the West, where long
stretches Of the selected roads We're
still in an un%improved condition wher
they were designated.
Nevada leads in its use of federal
funds on roads Of this character.
Eighty-three per cent of its entire
mileage of approved federal-aid roads
lies on one or the other Of the trails
which cross the states. On these
roads Nevada Will spend 80 per cent
of the federal money which has been
granted to her.
Indiana is a close second, with so
per cent of its entire federal-aid mile
age and So per cent of its money aid

Britain places a duty Of SO 1-3 per
cent Of their value, under the British
Act Of Safeguarding Industries. That,

WHAT NEXT IN ELECTRICITY?

Away back in the nineties, Mark
Twain wrote AN interesting piece
about mental telegraphy some folks
call it "telepathy.' Mark rocitcd in
stances where he had wanted very
much TO hear from this or that per-
son, and had had it on his mind
strongly, and he had even sat down
and writicn letters to them. In each
example the letter crossed" in the
mails another from the Individual in
mind.
Few Of us but have had letters
Gross" ian the mails, both written on
the same subject. And how frequent
ly have each one of us been surprised
TO find people about whom we were
talking, suddenly appear on the scene,
causing us to remark: Speak of am
gels and you'll hear their wings" or
Speak Of the devil" etc. And then
there is the constant duplication Of
thought and ideas which brings out
the saying Great minds travel in
the same direction
Few think OF these as mental tele-
graphy," bat are they not?
Mark Twain wrote in the days
when common biography of mes
sages was by wire. He was convinced
that mental telegraphy was not clair
voyance or spiritsm, but the action
Of some unknown quality Of electric
ty. Since that time wireless tele-
graphy has become common. Wireless
telephony is beginning TO become
common. We know that the sounds
are carried through the air by waves
of electricity which wash against
poles and standpipcs to which receiv-
crs are attached.
The world is making amazing
strides in the science of electricity.
What will it yield next? viii it be
the discovery Of a quality or element
in electricity that, with the help Of
apparatus, will wash waves of
thought from one brain to another?-

icle, searching for the cause of this

indictment Of modern day conditions
in the following editorial;

tend to have no control over their

safely said that things will go ON

unlucky one. Hundreds of others
have had narrow escapes who were
