ing Over Highways Not
Specific.

A law which may change entirely
he present system of handling and
maintaining highways in Rock Is
land county was passed by the last
legislature.
The law was passed, presumably,
Nth the intention of throwing the
control of all state aid roads into
the hands of the state department
a, uublic works and buildings.
while this plainly is the intent of
the law as passed there are provi-
sions in it which will for the time
being at least, put the charge Of
maintaining state aid roads on the
shoulders of the county. Hereto
fore the maintenance of these roads
has been In the hands of the town
ships.
The law. in one of its paragraphs,
provides that the state department
If pubIic works and buildings shall
take over the care and maintenance
nj all roads now designated as state
aid 1t includes with the state aid
roads all federal aid and bond Issue
roads. There is no time set in the
law for the state to take over the
roads, on the contrary it is set out
In the same paragraph that directs
that the roads shall become the
charge Of the state, that the state
department may take them on at its
rdiscretion.
In section II of the law it is writ
ten that the county shall take
charge of the maintenance of these
roads pending the action of the
state. Apparently there is no op-

 There were low rambling buildings of concrete barred with heavy impass able doors, and no amount of ham, mering and hallooing brought any re spOnSe. Weary and exhausted from sleeplessness I threw myself upon the ground commanding Woola to stand guard.
 Some time later I was awakened by his frightful growlings and opened my eyes to see three red Martians stand ing a short distance from us and GOV ering me with their rifles.
 "I am unarmed and no enemy" hastened to explain. "I have been a prisoner among the green men and am on my way to Zodanga All I ask Is food and rest for myself and my calot and the proper directions for reaching my destination" "
 They lowered their rifles and ad- vanced pleasantly toward me, placing their right hands upon my left shoul- der, after the manner of their custom of salute. and asking me many ques- tiOns about myself and my wander fngs.

 "Indeed, indeed, we have" said Mrs. Yakutat Bear. 'I hope people won't have trouble pronouncing our family name. It's rather hard one to pro- nounce, I'm told.
 "I notice that when the keeper tells our name to anyone they have hard time trying to say 1t after him.
 "I don't mind in the least if they don't pronounce it quite correctly"
 Neither do l." said MT. Yakutat Bear.
 "Well," Mrs. Yakutat Bear contin- ued, II like 1t here in the zoo. I'm glad people seem to admire us, for it is pleasant to be admired when one is on exhibition"
 ''Now, you've used a word I do not understand MT. Yakutat Bear said.
 When something is exhibited 1t means that it is being shown and that people can look at 1t. Now we are being exhibited, so we are on ex- hibihon, and that means that people can come and look at us.
 ''So 1t Is nice that they like to look at us and that they think we amount
