the county is a fair one. There are
four highways to be improved in
the upper end OF the county and
four in the lower end. This means
about IS miles OF Improvement in
the upper end and AZ miles in the
lower end. The distribution of
money is practically even in the
upper and lower ends of the coun-
ty The highways are so routed
that every farm in the county lies
within a few miles of them and
every farm in the county will have
a connecting traffic artery to the
shipping points and to the cities.
The cost to the taxpayer is very
small and is equitably divided. A
tax of 20 cents on each 500 as
sessed valuation will pay for the
bonds and their interest. A tax of
about 6 2-3 cents an acre on all
farm lands in Rock Island county
will suffice. A home owner in Mo-
line who is now paying s77.10 in
taxes will pay $3.50 with good
roads. A home owner in Rock Is
land who is now paying s67.40 in
taxes will pay S69.40 with good
roads. The average 160-acre farm
will pay $10.67 in taxes. The rail-
roads will pay about one-twelfth
of the total cost and the big indus

tomorrow the voters of Rock Is
land county will decide whether We
shall have good roads or continue
with our mud trails. 1t is hoped
that every voter has thoroughly
studied the million-doilar bond
proposition for good roads and will
go TO the polls and register his de-
cision.
This is one of the most vital and
important propositions ever pre-,
scented to the voters, and all men
and women owe a duty to them
selves and neighbors to vote for
the right of the proposition as they
see it. It is time to overcome the
bad reputation which Rock Island
county has throughout the land
with reference to its highways and
to take our place along with other
progressive counties in the matter
of good roads. The plan that is
now presented is a definite and GER
tain plan and is feasible and prac-
ticable. With the roads to be con-
structed urGer the county plan. ev-
cry township in Rock Island coun-
ty will be connected with the state
bond roads and every shipping
point in the county will be connect

CIRCULAR SUGGESTS

Urbana, IIl.-Suggested cold
lunches for school children are
contained in an extension circular
by the home economics department
of the University Of Illinois. They
are:
One-One bean sandwich, two
celery sandwiches, one cup canned
peaches in small jar, one cup cake.
Two-Two brown bread sandwich
es, one-fourth cup cottage cheese,
one prune sandwich, fresh fruit
Three-two bread and butter sand
witches, one raisin-bread sandwich,
one-half cup canned cherries in
Jar. Four - Two cottage cheese
sandwiches, one jelly sandwich, one
tomato (fresh or canned) served
with salad dressing in small jar,
two cookies. Five-Two scrambled
egg sandwiches mot cooked in fat),
one serving of rhubarb cooked with
raisins. two slices coffee cake. Six
One slice meat or bean loaf, two
bread and butter sandwiches, one
small jar of apple sauce. Seven

pie in the city will make in the
price Of produce and coal will much
more than pay the tax. The coun-
try surrounding the cities will be
converted into fruit, berry and
truck farms and dairying institu-
tons, since the farmer with good
roads will have an opportunity
of transporting his produces and
this will result in a saving to the
people of the city, as they will not
have to pay high prices for shipped
in products. Another big saving TO
the taxpayers will result from the
state paying one-half of the cost
of the maintenance of these roads
and the county patrol system is
taking care of the other half of the
expense.
The roads will bring the city
closer to the country and the coun-
try closer to the city and will en-
courage the building of homes on
small tracts of land outside the
congested districts of the city. The

PRINCESS BORROWS
VISCOUNTS SWORD
TO CUT HUGE CAKE

London.-Princess Mary Dor
rows Viscount Lascelles sword to
cut the huge wedding cake which
was served at her wedding break
fast. When the party had assem-
bled in the dining room of Buck
ingham palace, King George in
vited the Princess to lead the at
tack on the formidable 500-pound
CONNECTION.
Viscount Lascelles acted as her
escort and as they approached the
huge cake he handler her his
sword. Prince Henry. who was
close behind his sister offered to
get a Ratchet, but Princess Mary
laughingIy declined.
The Duke of York evoked a
laugh by suggesting that a Louis
(machine) gun might settle the
thing more expeditiously than
either sword or Ratchet.
The Daily News correspondent
who thus describes the fun at the
wedding breakfast failed to state

what success the princess had
with the sword. He says that when
the Queen Mother Alexandra ar
rived at Buckingham palace after
the wedding ceremony, Princess
Mary made an impetuous dash at
her and the two embraced affec-
tionately.
The Duke of York remarked that
Queen Alexandra was the first to
kiss the bride but Queen Mary
smiiingly refuted it, saying that
she had kissed the princess when
the register was being signed in
the chapel of Edward the Confess
sor.
We'll, anyhow" the Duke of
York is quoted as saying, Il an
going to be the first bachelor to
kiss her, and he did it so emphat-
ically as to cause a laugh at his
expense.
Kink George suggested that the
duke might like to kiss all the
bridesmaids also but at this point
the dukes nerve evidently failed
him.
