band Called "Cold Food"

NEW YORK, June 6.-Mme. Mar
garet Matzenauer, Metropolitan Opera
Company contralto, declared that she
was carefree and proposed to stay
chat way when she sailed on the
steamer Berengaria for a visit to her
father in Vienna. Her marital expe-
riences with her divorced husband,
who had been her chauffeur, had been
enough for a while, she said.

and worked into roadbed about
twelve inches thick.
The art seems to have been lost
for nearly two thousand years, the
next example being in Edinburgh,
Scotland, in 1872, when some con-
crete pavements, still in use and
good condition, were made.
In our own country, Bellefontaine,
Ohio, gets credit for being the first
municipality to experiment with
cement streets, in 1898. But it is
really Wayne County, Michigan, the
Detroit automobile factory region,
which made the concrete highway
known to the nation. This early ex-
pertinent was in 1907. In 1909
less than half million square yards
of concrete were laid (perhaps fifty
miles,, while in 1921 more than
sixty million square yards were laid
(more than 1000 miles,.
| One of the great advantages OF
concrete is the low cost of hauling
its surface being less resistant to
tractive effort than any we know
| Dynamometer measurements show
that the tractive force required tt
move a wheeled ton of weight on 8
level road are, for concrete, 32.s
pounds; for asphalt, TIT pounds
for brick, SIS pounds; and fol
earth, 134.7 pounds.
A taxi company so situated thai
| it drove one set of cars almost en-
tirely on dirt roads and another Sc
almost entirely on concrete roads
reports that it costs "a cents les
per mile TO operate the taxis on thu
cement road than on the dirt roads
There are 100000 automobile
in the country. If they average thu
low amount of 5000 miles each PEE
/ year, the total miles driven is Sc,
900, 100000. At 2 cents mile
saving, the sum of $720,000,O00
year could go towards building hare
surface roads, which income woult
build $4,000 miles of permanent
highways every year!

always hold rank as one Of the first
