All bond issues that had been voted

First Money Paid for Highway Inn
proyement Made by Kentucky rs
rs Years Ago.

. ID T|
1t is often said that the use of state
money for the construction of roads
is Of quite recent origin, says bulle-
tin from the American Highway asso-
citation. The New Jersey state aid
law of 1901 is sometimes referred to
as the first instance of such use Of
state funds y Ia this country. AS "a
matter of fact. state money was spent
for such purposes more. than 75 years
ago. Kentucky paid out over $1,000
600 for road improvements between
1920 and 1910 under the direction Of a
state highway engineer, who drew a
salary of $1,000 a year, very large
sum for those days.
The roads built then were "a to 30
feet wide between the bitches. The
surfaces were constructed of broken
stone, and the bottoms were of large
stones wedged together to make what
road, builders call a,telford Foundation
About 1850 ,busine IS. conditions lip the
country became bad and this work
stopped. When it was resumed in
1908 such allong period had elapsed
Since the earlier state aid work that
1908 is usually fixed as the beginning
Of state road work In Kentucky.

at the presidential palace the morning
after the inauguration.

Long Ago

When was young the women
wore great spreading gowns
that swept the floor and gath
cred dirt and leaves; that raj
ment of bygone day is out of
date and done away, and how
my spirit grieves! The side
walks now are just a sight, with
rubbish lying left and right, an
eyesore and a crime; the wom-
ems dresses do not sweep the
refuse and the garbage heap as
in the sanity time. When l was
young a damself wept if, perad-
venture, when she slept, her
ankle she displayed; she knew
the gossips all would hoot and
give to her a wide repute as
bold and naughty maid. And
now such modesty is lost; the
old ideas are a frost, a roorback
and a jest the we'll turned ankle
is a sight that gives artistic
souls delight and soothes the
savage breast. When l was
young the woman laced until
she had an insects waist, a
fragile thing to view; you'd
think that if a zephyr came and
caught her fairly on the frame
she'd surely break in two. And
now the ladies in Our grad have
waists like Mrs. Venus had, an
armful, more or less; and, l am
told, they do not feel the armor
plate of bone and steel that used
to cause distress. And so, al
though we yip and bray about
the fashions of the day, and say
they make us sore, although the
modern styles we curse, it may
be that old things were worse
than those we now deplore.
