HEAVY TRUCKS ARE :
running OUR ROADS
Is II Good BUSINESS 10 Tax Ourselves
to Build Free Roadbeds for Truck
Freight Lines?

We are spending money like water
fer bard road constructions Much
It's woaey Is borrowed, thus Pill
inn up tar hurlen for the future
that heavier each year.
81 rnany cases roads built by bond
issues are going to pieces long be-
fore the bonds are paid This doubles
the burden on the taxpayer. He must
rebuild the road before he has paid
for it the first time--a form of fl
nancial suicide that would wreck any
private business.
Last year total expenditures FOR
hard road construction in the United
States were s767, 421 1916. Expendi-
lures in Illinois were $30,S0O, 900. It
is surely time that we checked up
on this vast outlay Of public money
to see if it is spent wisely
and if the taxpayer is getting the
full benefit from it.
Get Out the Wayl
A little bit OF investigation dis
closes the fact that our through route
hard surfaced roads are in danger OF
becoming primarily freight carrying
highways, operated for private pro-
fit and maintained at public expense.
Long before new hard road is open
ed truck companies have been form
ed to use it as freight line. Hard
roads would last for perhaps halt .
century under automobile, light truck
and WAGON traffic are quickly pound
ed to pieces by heavy trucks. These
heavy trucks monopolize the roads to
the discomfort Of automobile traffic.

Useful Narrow Shelf.

Narrow shelves are eften more use
full in cupboard and closet than are
those that are too wide. Shallow cup
boards that take up little room are to
be recommended for kitchen and
breakfast room, especially in small
houses. In the ordinary kitchen cup
board with its wide shelves, it is often
difficult to \ find articles that are
placed near the back of the shelf.
More shelves Of less width are to be
preferred.

a long freight train VISA nearing a
country highway az not over -
miles an hour over n level track. IL
was a bright sunny day. The iocomo-
tive and several cars had already
passed over the highway when the
conductor and the brakeman. looking
out the cupola window, saw an open
car approaching az rapid speed and
fully a mile away. The highway was
also level ana there was nothing
whatever 10 obstruct the view from
either automobile or train. The auto
approached without ia the least slack.
ening it's speed. and struck the sec
ond freight car from tho rear end OF
the train. The auto wRs a complete

explanation wac they undercstimated
