KIwANlANs POSTPONE TO.
DAYS MEETING FOR FAIR

The Lubbock kiwanians unani-
mously consented 20 postpone the
regular luncheon today until this
time next week. as they are all in
tensely interested in the success of
the fair, and IL is believed that most
good can be accomplished by their
being on the job at the fair grounds
at the noon hour rather than at the
lunch room.
The Kiwanians have been active
in all work pertaining TO the de-
velopment 70 Lubbock, and the in
terest shown in the fair has been
marked with great enthusiasm.
What the Kiwanians can do to
make the Fair a Success was the
topic Of the day az the last meet
ing. with l.. c. Ellis as chairman of
the day. and those on the program
did justice to that important ques-
ton, and as there were two on the
program who were on the Junior
Chamber Of Commerce Booster trip
substitute speakers carried out the
parts of the program successfully.
The ladies Of the Cumberland
Presbyterian church served the
luncheon and as this was the first
time the Kiwanians had enjoyed the
eats prepared by those ladies', we
assure them that their reputation as
artists in the culinary work is an en-
viable one. as even though we had to
take our place between Marco Du-
pre- and another Kiwanian Of equal
capacity. we were nevertheless well
prepared for the intervening days
between the luncheous at the con-
clusion of that meal.
Louie is busy with the fair, and
Amos Howard and Frank Vim are
pulling all necessary help together
IN making the Kiwanis truck one OF
the prettiest in the parade, and we
are sure that long before this ar
tiele goes to press their ability as
truck trimmers viii have been real
lied and Louie will be heard from
before next week.

ROAD : BUILDING
FEDERAL-AID ROAD PROGRAM
Secretary of Agriculture Ia Consider ing Tentative Draft of Rules
 and Regulations.

(Prepared by the United States Department
 of Agriculture.)
 The secretary of agriculture is con- Sidering a tentative draft of rules and regulations for the administration of the federal highway act, approved last November, under which $75,OO0,- GOO is appropriated for the construc- tion of federal-aid roads, but will not prOmulgate them until he has con- ferred with representatives of the state highway departments. The sec retary Is impressed with the need for closest possible cooperation between the federal government and the states in the development of the federal-aid highway system called for by the act, and the value and serviceability of the system will not be jeOpardiZed by a nasty decision aS to the roads which will comprise it or the regulations to be followed in carrying out the pur- poses of the legislation.
 Fifty million dollars of the ap- prOpriatiOn became available January l. The remaining S25,00O,00O was
 
 proval of the act, November 9, last
 In formulating the fundamental rules which will govern the states and the federal government in administer ing the law, the Department of Agri- culture is seeking the counsel of the state highway departments as repre- scented by the executive committee of the American Association of State Highway Officials. Members of the com mittee are: George P. Coleman, state highway commission, Virginia; Paul D. Sargent, chief engineer, Maine i; Austin B. Fletcher, state highway en- gineer, California; W. R. Neel, state highway engineer, Georgia; Thomas H. Macdonald, chief of the bureau of public roads, United States Depart ment of Agriculture; George E.

R. J. Windrow, state highway en- gineer, Texas; w. D. Uhler, state highway engineer, Pennsylvania; and D. P. Olson, director, bureau of high ways, Idaho.
 Pending definite decision upon de each project submitted by the states will be examined with the utmost care by the bureau of public roads to de- termine whether it is likely that the roads proposed will come within the federal system as finally selected. The department regards the approval of this system as of great importance. Each project submitted in advance of the definite decision upon the system as a whole will have an effect in termining the system. Location of the projects, choice of routes, and character of improvements proposed will be given close study.
 Each state highway department has been requested to submit as soon as possible to the Department of Agricul- ture a tentative map showing routes proposed for primary and secondary systems. In examining and passing upon these recommendations special consideration will be given to social and economic questions involved, such as service to population, estab- lished trend of traffic, existing indus sidering plans for individual projects special attention will be devoted to grade crossings. gradients, curvature, bridges, general drainage conditions, location of materials, supplies, etc.

When Heine Was a Tramp.

Heinrich Heine was a tramp. He trudged all of one summer through Sax ony in an old coat. He was going to Weimar to flatter-that seems odd Goethe. AS he wandered through the Harz mountains coming the speech he meant to make to the great German poet, he plucked plums by the way side When he reached his destination he forgot his eulogy and could only stammer his praise of Saxon plums. The railing, cynical exile of Paris, prodding his enemies with a trenchant pen, was that summer lovable as a tramp.-EXchange.
