 "Can you help us find Pearl White 2 they asked a motherly-looking woman. The woman asked them their names and they said they were Mary Sotnick, 13 years old, of II Norwich avenue, Taft vile, and Laura Dion, Il years old, 21 Terrace avenue, also of Taftville.
 To Patrolman Charles Nickel of Traf- fic they confded that they both play ed the violin "expertly'' and were anxious to meet Pearl White When told that Pearl White was not in town-in fact, was in Europe-they looked.as if they didn't care whether they st ed in New York or came back to Tafttflle.

TWO EXPERIMENTAL
 HIGHWAYS. IN STATE

The establishment of two exnerimental highways in Connecticut, is disclosed 9by the state highway department. One is a stretch about a mile long on the Berlin Turnpike about two miles south. of Ber- lin town hall, Sand the other covers about a half-mile on the state road between Plainyille and Southington, just north of Lazy Lane.
 Six different kinds of sheet asphalt sur facing for concrete foundations have been laid in six consecutive sections on the Berlin Turnpike, and labelled. The first is of the cheapest construction and each succeeding section is of a more ex- pensive grade than the preceding one. Inn nediately on completion, all of these six sections have been thrown open practical ly simultaneously to the heavy traffic regularly using the turnpike. State high way experts have been assigned to ob- serve the manner in which they wear. After a reasonable test, the department will select as the standard of construc- tion for that type of highway In Con necticut the section which proves the most economical considering the cost and the life of the highway.
 The material used in the six steps" as they are called at the highway depart ment, ranges in price from $6 ton to SIP a ton and, as about 1000 tons are required for each mile of highway, and there are 150 miles of concrete roads un- der the supervision of the state high way department in Connecticut the re- suit of the experiments is likely to have an important bearing upon future recon struction costs in the state.
 The experiment on the. turnpike is for the purpose, of deciding on the best T, f1r | that on the Plainville- -Southington high way is to determine the most satisfac, | tory treatment of macadam roads, The highway departments experience with concrete roads has been that they vii wear we'll according to Commissions Bennett, but that, after hard wear for fivt or six years, there are places where the surface becomes rough. It is to decide 1 on type of surfacing for the treatmen of such rough spots when they appeal 1 that the Berlin turnpike experimenta
 section has been established large sign is being erected to inform | the public that the road is a series o
 experimental stages for about mile, ant each "step" Is lettered for identification This makes it possible for users of tn turnpike to notify the department whicl
 type appears to them to be the most sat isfactory.
 The same is being done on the Plain 1 ville-Southington highway, except an en
 tirely different kind of road Is involved Here the highway commissioner Is exper
 imenting to ascertain the practicability c using over again in the reconstruction c
 that type of highway the same materis
 that was used in the original construc
 tion of the highway. Success of the pia
 would undoubtedly result in a. consider
 able saving. as over one million dollars
 included in the biennial state budget fc
 reconstruction as over a million dollars
