NEW YORK-Two of the great
est miracles about the body are:
FIRST, that it can take in and
change all sorts of food. turning it
into living tissue and body.
SECOND, the fact of heredity-
why it is that children resemble
their parents, some looking like the
father, some like the mother?
Life begins with a tiny speck of
living matter. so small that it can
not be seer with the naked eye. And
yet, from this living speck grows
and develops a man Cor woman.
resembling, in all his millions Of
cells. the face, form and features of
his predecessors.
Close Resemblance
Close resemblances of this nature
are often seen.
Look. for example, ~ the striking
likeness existing between Henry
Ford and his son Edsel; or between
John d." Senior and Junior. One
can see that the son will in time
grow like the father. in both cases.

FOR PAVING COUNTY
HIGHWAYS
CONTINUED from first pager


vention and discuss the matter OF q
bond issue for highway work Pa
pers should be presented by men
who can give the required data In or
der that all may be properly inform
ed
Construction for this Season
In view of the possibility OF pro-
viding some form OF hard surface
for the state highway in 1892 the
disposition Of the road fund for the
present season will require no little
forethought. The state director of
highways. d. p. Olsen, has asked the
county commissioners: First. The
total amount Of money that can be
made available for use in surfacing
the state highway in Bear Lake
county. Second, what portion of the
highway the commissioners desire
to have surfaced. Third, whether the
county commissioners would care to
undertake the work of surfacing.
The county has promised the state
$40. 900 to which the state will add
$14.500 making a total OF $43,5O0
available for surfacing the state
highway. This is sufficient to build
Ia miles of concrete pavement.
S1h miles of crushed rock or 6%
miles OF gravel road
If a portion of the state highway
is to DO surfaced in 1922 1t might
be wise to improve these portions
of the highway beyond the proposed
pavement or to forego tho $14,6O0
from tho state and use our $4,000
upon the county roads other than the
state highway which stand big
chance of being sadly neglected in
favor OF tourist travel upon the
state highway.
In view of our experience with the
state department in the north part
If the county there is a good deal OF
sentiment in favor of the commits
sioners taking over the work OF sur
facing and keeping control OF our
| funds more directly under the coun-
~ officials.-By Robert G. Harding
