and try to imagine what tidy sum IN
tire bills would be saved if we could
all travel on avenue surfaces. The
saving in tire costs alone would pay
the difference in construction costs,
in many instances
According to J. E. Pennybacker,
former chief economist for the United
States Bureau Of Public Roads, de-
termination of iustifable outlay for
the proposed Improvement of roads
and streets from anticipated service,
should call for at least as careful
survey and estimate as the engineer
now provides for the construction
work itself. "It is suggested that for
the potential local traffic says Mr..
Pennybacker, "a zone be plotted to
include the territory which might
logically be served by the highway
after Improvement Within this zone
the investigator could make an APP
proximate automobile census and so
acuuaint himself with the business,
industrial and social factors and pcs
sibi.ities of the zone as to establish
a basis for estimating both the satur-
alton point in motor vehicle owner

The highway commission has decid-
ed according to the advertisement to
build a wood approach on the Chap
pells road to the Saluda river bridge
1t is a very long structure, and some
builder who has made the calculation
said it would cost around $4,000 20
build of wood, and that it should not
cost more than twice that sum to
build of concrete. 1t would be much
cheaper to build of concrete at twice
or, ever more the cost, because then
you would have a bridge that would
stand and last, whereas a wooden
structure will be all the time in need
Of repair, and besides will not last
and will not be near SO safe. Build

The Old Homestead

How comforting and refreshing II
is TO one who has lived a long time
and passed through many and varied
experiences to think Of the old home
in which childhood days were spent
and that training was received which
was so essential to the development
of true manhood and womanhood.
No one ever forgets the old home. 1t
matters not where he goes and where
he builds his home-however happy
and comfortable it may be-the time
will come when he looks back in ret
rospection and is thrilled with JOY and
inspiration as the thoughts of the old
home and boyhood days come to him.
Yesterday, August 28th, was a
great day to five sisters, ths daughters
of John and Eliza Schumpert, who
met at the old home and quietly spent
the day together. The names of the
sisters are as follows: Molli>e, of
Smyrna, York county, who sixty
years ago was married to R. W..
Whiteside; Anna, the wife of Luther
NJ. Long: Susan, the wife of Boyd
Eoting; Fronnie, the wife of Gus
Summer; Ida B., the wife of N. R.
Lester. 1t would be interesting to
make mention of the family of each
of these sisters but time and space
forbid such.
The old home is owned by John
Calvin Schumpert. Mrs. Schumpert
was very happy to have the five sisters
meet there and did all that was in her
power, and that was. much, to make
the sisters joyous and happy. Truly
that was great day, happy occa-
sion, significant event and one that
will'be remembered by the five sisters
as long as they live.

A FEW DAYS MORE

AS evidence how it pains me to
take a name from our mailing List l
have decided to grant few more
days in which to pay up even the
dollar and remain with us.
This is done for two or three rea-
sons. In the first place we did not
get out all the notices until this week,
and if we should take off any names
right now there might be mistake
and the subscriber would not have
time to make the correction. In the
next place I find that there are good
many errors, and this could not we'll
be avoided, as we have waited so long
to correct the list, and we do not want
to take off any name where there has
been payment, for it has always been
my rule to give a year rather than
take pay for six months twice, and
we want all of you who have the no.
:,;ces to let US know if error has been
made so that it may be corrected. The
Young lady who has sent out notices
NAV have made some mistakes, and
if so we would be glad to have you
say so. And then so many have writ
ten not to stop the paper that they
would pay soon, and this | will do OF
course, but it will take few days 20
get that Strengthened out.
So have decided to take the mat
ter in my hands without consulting
the boss of the company, and to ex-
tend the time for rayiag up few
days longer, and that Will give me
little time to get matters straight in
correcting the list and finding out
who has pad. So | am going to eX-
tend the time to Saturday, Septem-
ber 10, and beyond that time l Will
have no alternative, SC if you do not
desire to have. your name off the list,
or there has been error in the credit,
be sure to let me hear from you not
later than Saturday, September lo,
and then ] am going co give II OF
YOU the opportunity to get a copy
of the special legonaire edition next
Wednesday, because if | should cor
rect the list now and take off the
names of those who have not needed
NV appeal it would be impossible to
supply back numbers of that paper
when YOU came in to renew, as l
know YOU will do, because know
that YOU want the paper to come on.
Just one dollar will keep you gong
and certainly you can pay that
amount. Many in renewing have ex-
pressed thanks for carrying the paper
on. and I want to treat all alike II
YOU will permit me. So DO not DIS
appoint me but send some word ABOUT:

THE VALUE AND COST
OF GOOD ROADS

Newberry with a proposed expen-
diture of $4,000 for paving is one
of 345 states, counties, townships and
municipalities announced within the
past week as contemplating highway
Improvement. to a grand total OF
$153,745,254.
More than 81 $1,OO0,000,000 is avail
able for good roads and streets in the
United States. This sum, large as it
is, represents an increase over the
highway revenues of 1914 of only
abou,. $50 per cert, While highway
traffic has increased 450 per cent.
There are now 100000 miles of
highways in the United States, Of
w!lich only an approximate 100000
miles are improved with modern pave
meLts. When compared to sums ex-
pended for klxuries by the pleasure
loving public the American highway
budget does not look SO impressive.
The people of this country spent
$1,000,000,000 a, year for candy,
$3,50O,000 for automobiles, 81 ,OOO,-
100000 for automobile tires, $1,275,-
100000 for gasoline, $500, 100000
for carpets and rugs, $1,95O, 100000
for cigars, cigarettes, tobacco and
snuff, and 100000 for jewel
ry, perfumery and cosmetics. On the
other hand the sums spent for roads
and streets are seven times greater
than those expended for water supply
improvements, three times those for
sewerage work and fifteen times
those for bridges.
In connection with the road-build-
ing program public officials are cast
ir.g abo:,ss to find the types of pave
ment best suited to their purpose and
best cal:u!ated to save money to the
tax -paye>s ari those who use the
highways. 1t now costs from $780,
600 to 100000 a mile to construct
modern paved highways, depending
on the dimensions of the pavement,
the kind of material used and the To-
cal conditions encountered such as
labor costs and sub-soil conditions.
Naturally the purpose of the highway
officials is to get the best for the
least expenditure, consistent with du-
rabilty and service.
IL: is high time" says NJ. 0. Ell
dnidge, director Of roads, American
Automotive association, "to pay more
attention to the effect of the various
road surfaces on motor vehicles IN
stead of considering only the damage
by the motor vehicle to the road.

gross annual saving in traffic opera
ton attributable to the Improvement.
The rapidity with which the AM
erican people are turning to dustless
highways is shown in figures recently
compiled by Highways Information
service, New York City. These show,
for instance, that during the past
eight years five million tons of as
pihalt, quantity sufficient for $4,000
miles of roads and streets, CIR double
the entire mileage of the Route Ma
tionale, the main highway system OF
France, have gone into roads and
streets in this country. A census OF
city paving, recently compiled, SHOWS
that of 364,901,611 square yards of
paved streets in the 1876 leading cities
of the country, 37,476,345 consisted
of surface-treated gravel, 58,412,78O
consisted of surface-treated water
bound macadam, 1929 ,494 of btu
minous macadam, 26,430,112 of as
phaltic concrete, 1O5,712,821 of sheet
asphalt, 5O,963,748 of brick, 1O,744,-
695 of Portland cement concrete,
6,259,695 Of asphalt block, 1O,313,-
42O of wood block and 37,09S,4l4 of
stone block. The percentage ratio to
the whole was: Brick, IA per cent;
stone block, 1912 per cent; Portland
cement concrete, 20 per cent; sheet
asphalt, 80 per cent; asphalt concrete,
7.3 per cent; asphalt block, IT per
cent; b;tuminous macadam, 3.9l per
cent; waterbound macadam, l6 per
cent and gravel, 1923 per cent.
The types most favored, not only
for paved streets but for improved
roads, included not only the asphaltc
types but those of brick and maca-
dam. Brick is highly desirable but
more costly than some types. Maca-
dam is a satisfactory type when COM
bined with bituminous binder which
makes the road dnstless and prevents
ravelling. 1t costs but little more
than the old type Of macadam be-
