Fred Hertzfeld of Manawa, member

MISS PHOEBE WILSON
RESIGNS POSITION AT
UNIVERSALIST CHURCH

Miss Phoebe Wilson, since last fall
director of religious education at the
First Universalist church and better
known as "the assistant pastor" has
resigned her position to the regret
of the many friends she has made in
the, city during the year, and has ac-
cepted position of similar character
at Evanston, ILL.,, where her parents
reside. MissWilson has made an unusu-
al success of her work here during
the year. Several beautiful pageants,
which required intensive practice,
were staged under her direction, and
during the summer she directed the
Vacation Bible school conducted by
the First Universalist and M. E..
churches jointly. 1t is the hope of
those with whom she has been asso-
ciated this year that her work at
Evanston proves as successful as her
endeavors in this city

Single handed, man entered the
American National bank of Marshfield
last Tuesday at 1885 O'Clock, when
the larger share of the banks en-
ployes were at lunch, cornered the

was made by the thief, who gave his
name as John May of Medford, and
has been chauffeur for Mr.. Kindling

To the Editor, The Washington Herald;
In your issue of Sunday, June 10.

Simonds, among other things he
makes mention that the Poles are
going to remain in control of the
city of Wilma (yilnius). do not
wish to criticize Mr.. Simonds' ar
ticle. but l deem it a duty to write
and let you know that the status of
Wilma was and is, Lithuanian.
To show that the Poles have no
claim to the city of wilma the fol-
lowing will help in explaining the
situation as IL is: There was only
a personal union between Lithuania
and Poland. and at the first oppor.
tunity 1t was annulled by the
Lithuanians. There never has been
a real union between the two
states. At the union of Lublin a
sort of confederation was formed,
against the will of the Lithuanian
people. The King Of Poland had
no right to act at that conference,
as the Duke of Lithuania, to COM
pei the Lithuanian representatives
to take oath of allegiance and to
annex the Lithuanian provinces to
Poland, because a year previous to

Tells of Wonder Watches.


Referring to "a wonderful watch,
one having a handspring nine feet
long. now on exhibition and housed
in the National Museum" Capt. G.
NJ. Bower says in The Herald that
he has an antique watch which is
l4l years old and "is some watch,
too" In this connection / would
state that the National Museum has
one of the most wonderful collec-
tions of antique watches in the
world. More than 500 specimens,
each one with a history of its own.
are open for inspection to the
public.
There's a watch, made by Ber-
thoud, OF Paris. with the decimal
subdivision of time, as adopted by
the convention of the French Revo-
luton, October 5, 1898. BY this act
the day was divided into ten hours,
the hour into 100 minutes and the
minute into 100 seconds. Only
twelve of these watches were ever
made. Then there is a watch. $50
years old, running with a hogs
bristle instead Of a hsirspring. 1t
was made by hand and before hair
springs were invented. And so on
the history OF tlneheepiHB curing
the last three centuries is illus
trated by unique and most valuable
specimens up to the present day
marvel. the y-three-jewel
American watch.
At the coming national conven-
tion in Buffalo of the Retail Jewei-
ers' Association of the United States
a resolution will be introduced 10
make every jeweler in the land a
collector for the National Museum
in Washington.
Would 1t not be an interesting
fact IL all the watches owned and
used by our former Presidents,
from Washington down, could be
seen at the National Museum? If
so, why not let US have them?

Following the Money.


III it undertook its wild-eyed, 'crazy-quilt pro-
gram of road building to get its portion Of
the Federal good roads fund 1t Jared Congress to
a. realization that it had been appropriating vast
sums to the States for road building without any
adequate check on its or supervising authority
to assure value. 1t had not followed the money.
In other form OF construction can as much
money be completely wasted in road building
To guard the future Senator Townsend has intro
dpced bill establishing a road commission of FIVE
members and giving to them adequate authority to
pass upon plans and specifications, and sys-
tems, with the requirement that they approve
structon before the apportionment from the Federal
find is paid
g The commission will establish an interstate sys-
scm of highways which will in fact be connecting
1p of the State highway system at State lines
There are many excellent and sadly needed provi-
sons, but the most essential of all of them is that
only such durable types of surface and kinds of
material shall be adopted for the construction and
reconstruction of any highway (receiving aid) as
wi adequately meet the existing and probable fu-
rure traffic needs and conditions thereon"
"a The single word durable" with the traffic re-
qairement will necessarily bar Federal aid to any
but hard surfaced roads, unless the law is admins
tered with inexeusabe laxness 1t will, and it
should bar every form of macsdam. A rpacadam'
trunk highway is waste of money, because of the
excessive cost Of proper maintenance. New York,
Before the war, reported maintenance of such con-
struction as around $500 mile, while concrete
faced roads of the width could have been
built at an original cost macadam of possibly
the maintenance cost of three to FIVE years
Moreover, macadam maintenance increases each
year, while under heavy traffic of modern trucks, it
IS impossible There is nowhere today trunk high
way, is there a location where there should be
a.trunk highway that the traffic is not would
at once be, wholly destructive of any but first
class hard surface. To prohibit anything else is
the best service the central government can
der the States many of which do not dare, them
selves, take such action because of pressure for
miles qualify.
We believe the bill would be much better
measure, however, if it provided for a one-man
commission at a salary of $4,000 to $4,000, in
stksd of a fve-headed beast at $4,000 each The
ore-man plan centralizes authority and response
baity while the high salary would command the
qsired executive and administrative ability The
technical skill must be hired in any event. Sal
aEies of $4,000 provide berhs for lame ducks with
TOO large increment of politics. The higher SAL
ary gets ability with the requirement that it be
canned. A $4,000 salary is seldom earned save by
men who take it at a decided financial sacrifice.
TINS country has so many bydra-headed commits
sisns that it would seem it might experiment with
aGieast one-man commission.
