DEPENDABLE HIGHWAYS
Atlanta, Ga .

Philadelphia, Pa, March 7.-The !
Bureau OF Highways of this city has !,
concluded it's eight-year study of the |
Byberry-Bensaiem test roadway and
announced its findings as to the COM
parative wearing qualities OF the
various types of pavement with which
the highway was surfaced in 1913.
According to the report the sections
paved with vitrified brick have cost
the least in annual repair and mainte-
nance, and the sections covered with
different varieties of cement concrete
have cost the most. The actual fig
ure1 ON up-keeD cost per square yard
per year are, for vitrified brick, eight
tenths of n cent and, for cement con-
crete,' II cents. Bituminous concrete
types have cost 12 cents a square
yard each year for maintenance and
bituminous macadam, seven cents.
These figures, if stated on the basis
of a mile Of 16-foot roadway would
result in the following yearly up-keep
costs: cement concrete s1,652.1 12, BIZ
luminous concrete $1.124.58, bitumi-
nous macadam sG93.7O and vitrified
brick 76.9S.
The Byberry- -Bensalem road is the
beginning Of the main thoroughfare
between this city and New York. It
was constructed in sections as fol-
lows: seven of vitrified brick, five of
cement concrete, six of bituminous
Z concrete an delight of bituminous
nnacadam. Care was taken, because
Of the Importance Of the highway, to
construct each section In substan-
ttat manner 80 as to withstand the
heavy traffic. Regarding this traffic
the report says:
"The road was obliged to carry
practically all OF tho heavy CONNER
diai truck traffic between these two
cities in addition to the countless
trains of government trucks during
the war-a sum total which IN weight
and intensity was sufficient to con-
stf.ute a severe tes. OF the durability

BESIDE THE CcNGAREE

Somehow tonight old longings fill
The saddened heart that burdens me.
While pictured glories softly thrill;
AS down the wistful past I see
A cottage in the meadows, still,
-. Beside the 'Congaree.
= lift the veil that falls between
The now and then, and clearly see
The boy who romped upon the green
or swarted hill that used to be
His outer world, from which was
The wondrous Congaree.
Out from the cottage, nesting there,
sent my ships upon the sea,
And on the hin when June was fair
I spun my dreams of destiny.
The ships are on the sea, some
where,
Beyond the Congarce.
Tonight l. know the moon-beams fall
Upon the hill-upon the lea
almost hear the night birds call
Unto their mates; once moSe I see
The phantom pines, so gaunt and
tall,
Beside the Congaree.
Fate may divorce me of my gold,
May Keep my ships upon the sea, >
But memory better things can hold,
sthsse re mine, by destiny
10 feel youth's gofden urrss...--
unfold ,,s
Beside the Congaree. t
Long as the rose shall seek the sun,
! SO long aslgulls shall love the sea,
SO shall my tender longings run
Where flows the widowed Congaree-
Where dreams OF untried days
were spun
Beside the Congaree.
