Efficacy of Tar Water

Rev George Berkeley, bishop Of
Cloyne, was an ethereal philosopher
who set out to undermine the stolid
materlalism Of his time, and two hun
dred years ago he maintained that
matter cannot be conceived to exist.
the only possible substance being
mind The material world" he said,
"is nothing but complex Of ideas
which come and 60 with an order and
conference that constitute the law Of
nature"
The good bishop sometimes de-
scended to earth to discuss the simple,
mundane things. He had a curious
obsesslon regarding the medicinal efii-
cacy OF tar water. which was much
used in his time as a drink beneficial
to all human ailments. "Tar water"
the bishop held. "is Of a nature so
mild and benign and so proportioned
to the human constitution as to warm

Construction of Modern
Automobile Roads Gains

That the construction of modern au-
tomobile roads and paved streets in
this country is gaining in volume year
by year IL shown by statistics Just
announced by Highways Information
Service, New York The figures show
also that highway contracts awarded
during the second half of the year av-
erage in volume only about 25 per cent
less than those let during the first
half and that there is not a month of
the year In which a large amount Of
construction is not under contract.
In 1920 a total of $3.50, ,S4S,0OO in
new road construction was awarded
in this country. In 1921 the amount
was $3.50. 900, an increase Of $780,
$4,000 over 1920. Last year con-
tracts were awarded to the amount
Of S669. .42s, 900. an increase of $685.
10000 over 1921 and $13a2SO, 900
over 1920. From January 1 to June
1, this year, total Of $Ss4.774, 900
was placed under contract, At this
rate new highways for which con-
tracts will be let during 1928 will cost
approximately $794,OOO,OOO, a gain of
about $125, 100000 over 1922.

Garden Furniture

Appropriateness of garden furniture
requires attention. Elaborately mod
eled sun-dials and bird-baths, and fur
niture with delicate and refined lines
would be at home only in a garden
sophisticated and formal In design;
while pottery and furniture In primi-
tive patterns should be reserved for
gardens modest and deliberately un-
pretentious in feeling.
The placing Of these things ID Of the
almost Importance. Some garden or
naments serve Us accents and others a.
climaxes. Sun-dials and bird-baths,
and sometimes furniture, fall into the
latter class and should accordingly be
set at the ends Of paths or open spaces
where they will end vista. That il
not an unbreakable rule. however; for
the intersection Of two paths Is very
often the ideal location for a sun-dial
or blrd-bath, or they may be nicely
used to mark the center Of an open
space In the garden. Their decorative
value In the garden scheme must be
sufficiently emphasized so that they
will not seem an incidental and
haphazard ornamental detail. A small
bit of ornament, like a sun-dial or
bird-bath. may seem rather ridiculous

BIOLOGISTS REDUCE d
BODYBUILDING COSTS

How the cost of building Wisconsin
state trunk highways Is being mate
rally reduced by the field investiga-
tons made by geologists, especially
through the hunting out and using of
local materials. is pointed out by e.
F. Bean, assistant state geologist and
former professor in the University of
Wisconsin. In an article on Economic
Geology and Highway Construction"
which has been published as reprint
from Economic Geology.
The increased use of local materials
which has been developed by the
biologists road-material investiga-
tions has not only reduced the cost Of
construction materially but has great
ly decreased the use of railway cars
for hauling road materials, he points
out.
Many university geology students
have devoted their summers to the
geological end Of highway work and
this, he points out, greatly extended
the scope Of this work. From the stu
dents point of view. summer field work
in connection with highway building
has furnished a wide range Of field
experience.
The first step in the geologist's In
vestigation is to determine what types
Of road material are available locally
for that particular project. He then
recommends such local material as
may be used to save freight charges
or truck haul. Detailed reports are
made on the results of the investiga-
tions, and estimates are also fur
nished on the quantity of material
available, conditions of quarrying rock
or getting out gravel and transporta-
tion problems. The aim OF such studies
ID to furnish good road construction
at the lowest cost possible without
sacrificing service and efficiency.
"In addition to the financial saving
the use Of local material has a direct
bearing on the problem of rail trans
portation," Mr.. Bean writes. 1.-THE use
Of local road materials relieves the
railroad of this additional load and
liberates cars for the use Of coal and
other commodities, and in addition
prevents expensive delays in highway
construction"

WHY YOU ARE

WHAT MAKES MAN A LEADER,

An individual In leader usually
because he has the crown. or top
back head well developed where lie
the faculties Of firmness. self-esteem
and continuity, making him confident,
ambitious, often forceful, and able to
continue any work he begins.
Such a man will be great In so far
as he has corresponding develop
ment of intellect in his front head,
and combntlveness behind the upper
part Of his ear.
His nose is large at the top. he holds
his upper lip down rather firmly, and
his Jaw Is squarely curved. If he
has strong observation in the eye

top of his forehead. he automatically
becomes a leader-a general of bust.

head. where lies friendship and paren-
tai love, is often weak or undeveloped,
and he freezes out too much socia-
bility or emotion, though as rule he
lives up to his obligations.
When such man moves his hands
he carries them In straight lines, he
wears his shoes out evenly all over,
his voice reaches far Into the distance,
and when he walks he swings only his
lower arms. The central part Of his
