ROAD WORK REPORT
Mobiles County Highway Head Has
Just Issued His Statement

Just Issued His Statement
Worthington, January 12.-Tholgh
the year 1922 has seen some OF the
biggest advances yet made by the
MOBILES county highway program, the
report of N. S. Thayer, Superinten-
dent of the highway department,
filed last week with the board of
commissioners, shows a balance On
hand of $131 ,462.25, total of $685.
S52.94 representing net savings on
construction which was put through
under the estimated figures. MIR.
Thayer attributes these savings, in
his report, to the unusually attrac-
tive prices which were secured Ioi
1922 construction.
During the year a total Of thirty
six miles were graveled at a total
cost OF $62, 1884, or an average cost
per mile of $l,743 Thirty miles
were graded at a total cost of $685.,
440.49, or an average cost per mile
of $2,353.0e.
The total mileage now under
gravel is reported as 107 IL, in
GLIDING the portions of Trunk High
ways No. 8 and 16 lying within No
bles county. A total of "A miles was
reported a graded, ready for grav-
cling, leaving total of Is 1-2 miles
Of state aid road unimproved:
Four jobs this year overran the
estimate in a total of S2,915.lS, while
six jobs were completed under the
estimate by a total of S21.95S,Oh
There were two jobs not estimated.
which cost, $3,117 OF, preliminary
work in stripping jobs for this viii
ter and next season cost S2,760.16,
and there was some work done on
Trunk Nos costing $532.65. This
last item is subject to refund.
One job was not completed, leav-
ing balance of the estimate uneX-
pended in the sum of s10,919.S5. 1t
is estimated that ten per cent, or $13,
10000 of the contingent fund was
not expended.
= Altogether the report shows a
very careful and conservative hand
ling of the road funds of the county,
and indicates that the 1923 program
can be well taken care of within the
funds available and in sight, with
snug balance in prospect for 1924.
That there is no.diminution in the
demand for improved roads is indi
Gated by the fact that petitions were
received and placed on file for sixty
four miles additional. This would
indicate that Mobiles county is going
20 be in the road building game for
some time to come. ..

Why try to regulate your husbands

exercise is excellent. You say he Is

be just as contrary.
Don't nag your husband, and dom

will not want to hit you.
You give no grounds on which your

Manv Want Her

Dear Miss Lee: / am % years old and
am very good-loolxirg. Most every boy in
my community wants to go with me. go
with one fellow and three other fellows
want to go with me, also. Every time
these three fellows meet the one | go
with they try to whip him. Do you think
it best for me to continue to go with this
fellow or quit him and go with one of the
other three?
This fellow says he believes il we would
marry these other fellows would not bother
him. Do you think they would? The
great objection is that he is so jealous,
He comes to me three or four times
week and wants to come oftener. Do
you think that is too often? He Is 10 and
these other fellows somewhat older.
l am a great dancer. He objects to my
dancing with other boys. especially with
these three. HOPELESS.
You are three years older than this
boy. HIS only 19-too young TO marry.
So 1 advise you to stop going with
him, and be a true friend by helping
him to recover his heart
L should not think you would want
TO go with any Of these other men
after their actions. But apparently
you could have your choice among all
your men acquaintance, so surely
you can find plenty of friends with
out these three.
