HORSES BARRED FROM ASPHALT

Not so many years ago, "horseless
carriages" as the first automobiles
were called, were ordered off the
streets of at least one Indiana city.
Now the order has been reversed, for
in Terre Haute horse-drawn vehicles
are prohibited from using certain
streets in the downtown district. Ex-
ception is made, however, for horse
drawn delivery wagons.
Trucks or wagons can not use any
asphalt-paved street in Terra Haute
except from the nearest intersection
to the destination.

NEW ARGUMENT for GOOD ROADS

An enterprising native of Maine
knows what to do with an abandoned
railway. When the Bangor and ArOO-
stock Railway discontinued service
over its 12-mile branch running from
Brownsville to Katahdin Iron Works
Henry Green saw an opportunity. He
started with a small automobile and
the idea of fitting the car with flange
wheels, to make it run on the unused
rails. He rented the whole branch line
from the railroad company for $1OO
a month and started business. Now
traffic is so brisk he is using a trailer
behind his car.

l have been busy every day, there
are so many things l want done, and
the time won't wait for me. The
first week I spent in making my
house homelike, such as putting in
shelves and arranging my scant fur
niture to look it's best; then clean
ing the yards, pruning out willows
and brush and planting flowers.
One would think day or so would
do all these things, but it all takes

and comes in on most of these jobs.
We never worry how near the coy
otes howl or how loud the storm
roars in the canyon or the thunder
crashes. Our house is leaky just
now, and there are only certain
choice spots where we can keep dry.
We hunt these and grin and wait.

covered with tar paper and this top

driving storms the last few days that
most of the houses here are leaking.
We had rather an exciting exper-
fence Saturday night. There. was a
dance over at the Glenore school
house (six miles) and we all went
over and had good time. By 1--WE"
/ mean my neighbors, Mr.. and Mrs.
Smith, the two girl guests and
Gladys and l. When the dance was
over and we went out of the school
house it was showing and raining
very hard, but we were not of the
melting kind so didn't mind that,
but the Smith team was gone and
that left us afoot. We all got into
and on and around a one-seated Ford
car OF small racing type and started
home over the slippery hills thru
that binding storm. When we ar
rived at the Smith gate we found
the team standing there as quietly
as il they had been driven.

BUILDING BOOM IN THE EAST

about the Utah and Nevada situation
over the Lincoln highway" he re-
marked. 1T is the great highway
in the east and is doing a wonderful
amount of improving. In Pernsyl-
yaria especially was asked about it
The comment was not adverse to Ne
vada, by any means, as the eastern
people are friendly to the highway
and naturally have heard something
of it's side OF the controversy.
"An immesse amount of road work
IS going on. I never saw anything
like it. Most of it is hard-surfaced
work and gives an indication of the
vast amount of travel. The money
that is being spent on roads n the
eastern states is startling"
