SCIENTIFIC ROAD BUILDING
termine What Pavement Can Be
Used on Highways.

prepared by the United States Department
OF Agriculture-)
Some time within the next few
months new road 255 miles long is TO
be broken up in what is probably the
most extensive study OF road service
ever undertaken in the United States.
The road is located in Illinois. about u
miles southwest of Springfield, and
parallels the Walsh railroad. In the
test road there are no curves. The
grades vary from zero to fOur-tenths of
1 per cent, with an average grade OF
One-tenth OF 1 per cent, the maximum
and minimum grades extending over
very short distances. The subgrade soil
is uniformly brown silt loan, except
for two small stretches where it more
nearly approaches gumbO.
There are seven general types of paw
ing in the road, the idea being to
have represented the chief materials
used in road making, so that engineers
may study the effect of known and
measured traffic of varying degree upon
each kind Of road. The seven types
are:
Portland cement concrete.
Three and four inch lug brick con-
structed monolithic and with Port
land cement concrete base.
Three and four inch lug brick con
structed semimonOlithic and with a
Portland cement concrete base.
Three and four inch bituminous filed
lug and lugless brick on Portland ce-
ment concrete base.
Three and four inch bituminous filled

ELAPPERs

Some people inquire as to the
meaning of the slang expression
''iapper," applied recently to young
girls of certain type. One explain
alton is that it arose from the slip
shod habit affected by many of these
youngsters, of leaving their over
shoes unbuckled, so that they flap as
they walk. But as these girls were
called fappers in England long be-
fore this notion became a fad, this
cannot be the true explanation.
The dictionary defines a ''fapper,"
as a young bird which has not yet
learned to fly. Probably the sports
men originated tbs slangy use of the
word, as the first efforts of these girls
to fit into their places in the world
might remind one of the first flights
of the game birds.
The older crowd should not speak
too disparagingly of the fapper. She
does not have the elusive charm of a
former generation, when the shrink

men. The modern fiapper is trained
to make her way in the business
world, and hence is more self assert
i've. But she has enthusiasm and
activity, which are qualities that win
friends.
Now if these fiappers will listen
to wise advice from their mothers,
and not pursue the male animal too
aggressively, they should come out
resourceful women who will accom-
pEsh much in life

We hear occasionally of young
girls getting intoxicated at dances.
While it isn't any worse for girls to
drink than boys, it seems worse, and
it fills one with horror at the waste
of youthful life which such course
inevitably leads to. The young man
can come back, but seldom if ever
the young woman. When we were
young we never heard of a young
woman who drank or smoked. Girls
might follow forbidden paths, but
they invariably steered clear of
hootch. We trust the ugly rumors
that come from time to time are
gross exaggerators if not wholly un-
true. 1t is time however for a vigor-
Gus clean up of all these sources of
debauchery, in whatever respect
able" quarters they may be entrench-
ed. That innumerable violations of
law are constantly occurring no one
questions, and while this is going on
without molestation one cannot help
feeling that somebody is direlect in
law enforcement whose duty it is to
do it.-Rooks County Record.
