Road Building Projects
in Alabama Are Booming

Alabama has something like 10000
motor cars. AT the rate of increase
shown last year the state will have a
quarter of a million motor vehicles at
the end of 1925. The annual revenue
is now around one and a half million
dollars. The state highway commits
sion will soon come into possession of
something like 100000 from the
sale of state bonds, the entire pro-
ceeds going Immediately into road
building projects in the various
counties. These sums, together with
federal aid and the revenues from
automobiles and the returns from the
gasoline tax, should constitute a
healthy budget for use in solving the
road needs of the people. The amount
will permit the continuance of road
building on a big scale during this
year and the next-Selma Times
Journal.

HIGHWAY OFFICIALS
UNJUSTLY CENSURED
prepared by the United states Department
Of AGrtculturel

prepared by the United States Department
Of Agriculture)
Lack of understanding of the signifi-
canoe Of highway cost figures is often
the cause of unjust criticism of high
way officials, says the bureau of pub
lie roads, United States Department of
Agriculture.
Generally such criticism takes the
form Of comparing the cost of local
construction with construction of the
same type performed in some other sec
ton or at some previous time. The
taxpayer will naturally wish to inform
himself about such matters, but his
comparison should be thorough rather
than superficial
Differences in cost are often due to
differences in thickness of pavement,
width of roadway, drainage structures,
grading, length of haul of materials and
the care with which the material is
prepared and placed in the roadway.
Even where the above conditions are
identical there is often cause for con-
siderable difference in cost due to
Wages VI 1hpOi anu pilCeS VI lHdltlldis.
To illustrate this point, the bureau has
assumed road in which the qualities
per mile are as follows; Grading 5000
cubic yards, high-type surfacing, 10,560
square yards and rs cubic yards of con-
crete for drainage structures. Taking
average prevailing prices 1t has esti-
mated the mileage of road which could
be built with 100000 as follows:

Assuming that You are the average
person, you will enjoy health-phys-
ical freedom and full yigor-only

fact is shown by the United States
Life Tables, 1920.
Your earning power win decrease

This sounds sensational It is sem
sational. But it is true-and it is
something to which the wise man or
woman viii give serious thought.
OF course, it is not natural, or right.
It is the direct result Of an artificial
mode of Ife-of careless eating, sleep
lessness, and stimulated nerves. Nature
provides a danger signal--fatigue--to
warn when the body needs rest. The
person who regularly deaders the
fatigue signal by the use Of drug is
overriding the warning Of nature.
That is what coffee does. The
average cup of coffee contains / u to
3 grains of the drug caffein-elassifed
as a poison. This is dose of caffein
of the size often administered by ply
sicians in cases of heart failure. It
is powerful stimulant. 1t appears to
give new strength by deadening the
fatigue signal Actually, this new
strength is robbed from the body's
own reserve.
Coffee contains no nourishment. It's
only virtues, az a beverage, are its
warmth and favor. A good, hot, drug
less drink is a benefit with every meal
Millions enjoy such a drink in

Good Roads Notes

oooooooooooooooooooooooo
Scientists of Yale university and
highway officials of the state of Con-
necticut are working on a plan for
accident prevention in motor vehicle
traffic.
The state of Georgia has scores Of
towns maintaining tourists camps for
motorists-with free lights, water, and
other conveniences, and in some cases
free gas for cooking. Georgia is
crossed by the Dixie highway.
What, 1t is said will be the longest
"white way" in the South is to be
made by electrically lighting the
32-mile concrete highway between the
cities of Dallas and Fort Worth, Tex.
The United States Department of
Agriculture estimates that 1874, 100000
tons of farm products go over our high
ways yearly.
The Canadian Good Roads associa-
ton is adopting uniformity in signs
to be placed along the public high
ways in the dominion. The caution
symbols will be painted in black on a

the story that dog had been killed
with a wrench after being wounded
by revolver shots, and denied the
ability of anyone to prove it.
Bob Williams, of Mound street,
needed no urging to declare himself
to be that man, claiming he was able
to produce witnesses to substantiate
his statement. After MI Williams
had expressed his opinion on the dog
killing question so plain that the most
illiterate could absorb it, the Chief
started in on a hot reply, but Pres
ident Kent interviewed and ended
further discussion.
The dog question was ended for the
time being by the adoption of a mo-.
ton to refer the petition to the Ways
and Means Committee which promised
to give it immediate attention z

The speaker declared the time calls
for men courageous enough to put in
to effect some form of political in
stitution which shall prove sufficient
to make an end of war.
The war system is economically un-
sound, he asserted. Both the victor
and the vanquished suffer. Thousands
of farmers in the United States have
been forced to abandon their homes
and farms to their creditors because
Europe can not afford to buy the sur
plus food they were accustomed to
produce.

WANT DOG POIIND

At Monday nights council meeting
a petition fathered by the Trades and
Labor Assembly and signed by up
wards of three hundred Newark peo-
pie, praying for the establishment of
dog pound and the adoption of a
more humane way of disposing of
dogs condemned to death than that
alleged to be now in force, was pre-
sented.
No general discussion ensued, but
the opinion of Solicitor Randolph
given in answer to an inquiry that the
statutes specified certain causes leg
alizing the killing of dogs by anyone
at any time, but exceptions to these
reasons would it seems render it
necessary to carry the matter before
judge or justice of the peace, came
near starting hot one, as it brought
Chief Swank to his feet instanter.
He emphatically declared he was act
ing within the law and under his oath
to- obey the law He would kill all
dogs running at large and would ex-
ercise his right to enter the premises
of any citizen when in pursuit of a
dog and kill the animal then and
there. He claimed his actions were
authorized by the General Code of
Ohio, particularly the section which
reads "that a dog that chases,
worries, Injuries or kills any sheep,
lamb, goat, kid, domestic fowl, do
mestic animal or person, can be kill
ed at any time or place"
The Chief evidently places wrong
Interpretation upon the word "wor-
ries," which he claims means to
"cause anxiety, to vex, fret, trouble
Or plague; undue solicitude, care and
anxiety" But another definition
given by Webster, is undoubtedly the
meaning intended to be conveyed by
the statute, viz: "to harrass with con-
tinual swapping or biting; also, to
shake and tear or mangle with the
teeth"
The Chief also branded as false

"STOP" ORDER KNOCKED OUT

Attorney j. Howard Jones put a
kink in the order that all persons
driving cars should come to a dead
halt at all street intersections where
the word "Stop" is emblasoned on
the street paving, when he appear
ed to summons charging him with
disobeying said order.
Mr.. Jones claimed that the ordin-
ance was unconstitutional, inasmuch
as it was indefinite, failed to specify
or designate streets, and left it in
the hands of the Chief of Police to
place the signs where he saw fit.
Judge Collier sustained the claim
of Mr., Jones and dismissed the
charges against him and also similar
charges against 387 persons ordered
to appear for similar offenses.
This for the time being ends the
tempest in the teapot arising from
whimsical idea which has occasioned
annoyance, trouble, inconvenience and
loss of time to nearly four hundred
people, the majority of whom had in
nocently violated the ordinance, which
was later declared invalid.
