When John Louden Macadam, in
1910, began to experiment with
broken stone for building roads, he
met with mich opposition from the
"stand-pat" road builders, who con-
tended that the expense would be
prohibitive and that anyway, broken
stone in courses of assorted Sizes
was no better than broken stone O..
one size in one course.
Time proved the merit of Macad-
ANS idea, although the century and
nine years which have elasped since
his first practical experiment was
tried at Bristol, England, in 1915
have greatly altered the practice of
macadamized road building.
Up to the advent of the auto
mobile, Macadam's principles were
employed in their entirety, the
broken stone being bonded with rock
dust and water, the former replaced
by the impact of iron shod vehicles
and hoofs, the latter by the rain.
When the automobile, with its
rapid movement and broad rubber
tires, sucked the rock dust from be-
ween the stones in spite of the gentle
bonding effort of the water, it was
realized that something was lacking
in the roads used for fast, soft-shod
traffic, which lack was not felt under
slow and steel-shod traffic. That
something" was a better bond than
water. 1t was found in oils and tars
and bituminous compounds, Luck
'ly for. the millions of dollars invest
ed in macadamized roads, an oil, tar.
or bituminous binder could, and was,
applied with success to existing
roads, thus saving to the taxpayer
miles of highways which were other
wise DOOMED.
To-day, all macadami2ed roads are
built with the bituminous oil or tar
binder applied during the building
but the basic principles of larger
foundation and smaller upper course
topped by wearing surface of fine
crushed rock and dust. bound in
place by something, is still employed.
Macadam's greatest monument is the
dropping of the capital letter in his
name and making it the label for all
roads built of crushed rock laid In
courses of different sizes.

The Tenth Internatioal Congress OF
Peace, heald in July, 1923. passed a
resolution inviting the League OF
Nations to institute bureau in which
news reports from all countries could
be collected and compared, and paper
published, the news in which would be
authentic and its origin known, for
distribution in all countries, thus car
rying uniform information on national
affairs.
At present one magazine, Current
History, is carrying out an interesting
plan for an international survey OF cur
rent news, through board Of twelve
Associates in Current History, each
one reporting events in his special
field. It is conceivable that such q
board Of experts could be maintained
by big news association in connection
with its distribution office for the pur-
pose of checking up reports OF cores
pondents, offsetting any tendency
toward prejudice or unfairness.

The smuggling problem is becoming
less a problem each week, says the
American Issue. Following quickly
Eng'and's example. Germany and
Sweden have agreed to a treaty ex-
tending the dry zone an hours sailing
distance from our shores. In addition
to this cooperative action of England,
Germany and Sweden, Cuba has ADOPT
ed new regulations which will greatly
assist in keeping out contraband booze.
Uuder these new regulations exports
other than by regularly organize
steamship companies with fixed sailil 9
itineraries, shall be allowed only when
bond is put up which may be can
celled upon proof that within ninety
days the liquor has legally entered the
country to which it was consigned. y
These regulations will undoubtedly pre-,
vent diverting to the United States rum
cargoes consigned to wet countries.
Our coast gurad is being materially
strengthened both by increasing the
number of men and by adding add
tional boats of greater speed and big
ger shooting power. Congress re.
Gently appropriated $14, 900, 600 for the
purpose of increasing our coast pro
| lection from the attacks of this gang
both titled and untitled, who are at
tempting to override the Constitution
and laws.
1t begins TO appear that the days O
sport for the rum smugglers arr
numbered.

POLITICAL TAMPERING

Tampering with business by politi-
clans is due to extreme partisanshlp
seeking votes and party advantage.
We must quit tampering..
Most of the tampering with which we
are afflicted is in part the general ten
dency toward over-regulation by gov
eminent of business and of the affairs
Of individual citizens.
1t is estimated that the grand total OF
laws and ordinances, now effective IN
the United States, exceeds two million.
Railroads are subject to the orders OF
fifty commissions.
Farmers are subject to regulation by
potato inspectors, by diary, hog-cholera
cattle, seed, sheep, stallion and bee in
spectors.
Forty thousand elective officials, fed
eral, state and county, are the apex of
our vast organization of regulatory Of
ficials, besides city and town elective
officials and the vast number OF APP
pointed officials and employees OF all
branches of government.
All-told, one in twenty OF our wage
earners are upon a government pay
roll. Out of six days we labor, one
days labor-on the. average-goes to
pay the cost of government.
The laborer and business man must
pay the expenses of hundreds of thou
sands of Government officials and en-
ployes whose labor is not productive.
Tampering does not end with count
less additions to our laws and to the
payroll of government employees. AT
periodical intervals we are besought to
tamper with the Constitution of the
United States. The particular change
now being advocated is an amendment
which would restrict the power OF the
United States Supreme Court to declare
unconstitutional a law passed by
Congress.
One senator demands the vote Of
seven out of nine judges be required tc
give effect to such decision
another senator would go farther anG
authorize Congress to override the
courts decision by the simple expe-
dent Of re-enacting the voided law

GRAINS OF COAL
HELP YOU TALK
OVER TELEPHON
Minute Carbon GranuIes Chan.
Sound Waves In Air Into Elec-
trical Currents.

Most people think of coal as a gu
stance used either to furnish heat
to generate power, but 1t has anoth
and most important function-it he..
US to talk.
In every telephone transmitter the:
Is quantity of coal which is plac.
in receptacle in the transmitter ju
behind the thin, metal diaphrag.
against which the voice strikes. VIII
one speaks into the mouthpiece t.
voice makes the diaphragm vibrate al
that shakes up the loose contacts in Il
little pile of carbon granules. I'll
produces change in the electric Gu:
rent, there being strong current who
the diaphragm Is pushed in, and
weak current when the diaphragm
pulled out.
The party at the other end Of the
wire Ia able to hear because the re
ceiver has diaphragm that moves
back and forth with strong current
when the diaphragm is pulled in, and
q weak current when the diaphragm
is let go. Thus sound waves are set
up almost like those which went into
the transmitter at the other end Of
the wire.
The coal used is obtained from a
particular vein Of anthracite which
engineers Of the Bell System have
found to be especially suited for use
in telephone transmitters. This coal
is given special treatment such as
cleaning, drying and grading, before
1t Is used.
In the event Of coal strike, it
would have to last for several years
before interfering with the manufac.
ture of transmitters, as one pound of
this coal is sufficient to fll zoe trans
mitters. and two or three tons year
would supply the million and a half
transmitters made for the Bell System
annually and leave some over for the
use Of European customers.

Why is it that when political dema-
gogs wish to stir up row between the
Republicans and the Democrats, they
drag in the tariff question AS a
matter of, the tariff, or protection for
American workmen and industries, is
not a political issue and should be con-
sidered equally by Republicans and
Democrats as nonpartisan question.
A discussion of this subject from the
standpoint of the facts involved is not
politics but just plain ordinary bust
ness and should not be considered as a
Republican ora Democratic issue.

vALEDICToRY
BY Edna M. Moore, of the graduating
Glass of Calvert Agricultural
High School

BY Edna M. Moore, of the graduating
Glass of Calvert Agricultural
High School
AS we stand at the exit of our High
School career ready to step out on
the threshold of life, it is well to
consider the purpose of this school
in which we have been trained. This
may be briefly defined as endeavor-
ing to keep before youth of the COM
munity the, best principles of living
and to instil in their minds those
ideals and that knowledge which is
necessary for. their success in life.
We have learned much here that
will be of untold value to us in the
coming years, but most of us feel
that we do not yet possess sufficient
knowledge to face the world.
Whether We teach, whether we take
up engineering, whether we enter the
business world, or whatever we do
we have learned much here that will
. be invaluable to us.
Sometimes it has meant sacrifice
and hard work, sometimes we have
faced seemingly unsurmountable
barriers, but, are we not more than
repaid for our steadfastness and
perseverance :?
Our education has meant not only
hard work on our part, but sacrifice
on the part Of our parents. For our
sakes though, they have been willing
to meet the need and to cooperate
with teachers and pupils for our
benefit.
Although the faculty and student
body have received hearty coopera-
ton from the friends and patrons OF
our school, there should be more
intimate acquaintance among them
to secure the best results. The
members of the faculty do not have al
personal acquaintance with more
than fifty per cent of the patrons Of
Calvert Agricultural High School.
We wish to thank the Board OF
Education for their assistance and
kind consideration of our class
We thank the faculty for the interest
they have had in our work and for
all they have done for us. To the
one who has been our instructor in
History and English, our counsellor
adviser. and friend our class
mother--for the last two years, we
extend our heartiest thanks. There
was never trouble too small for her
consideration.
She sympathized with us and helped
in the darkest moments, and rejoiced
with us in our happiest hours. To
the members of the faculty we say
Farewell"
We also thank the undergraduates
for their cooperation and help in ou.
activities. To you as school-matt
we say Goodbye" but we hope to
remain your friends. You soon viii
take our place. The good credit cf
the school is your responsibility
1t is up to you as individuals and as
individual classes to keep. good
reputation for your school.
We have tried to do our best,
whether we have succeeded or failed
we could do no more. We hope you
too, will put your hearts and minds
into your work and ever strive to
make the best better"
Now, we bid you. " Farewell"

MRS. CAMPBELL WALLACE
WILL REPRESENT COUNTY
AT WESLEYAN MEETING

Macon, Ga, Jan. 28.-Mrs. Camp
bell Wallace, of Marietta, has been
selected to represent Cobb county at
an important meeting of trustees
and alumnae representatives of Wes-
leyan College at the Hotel Dempsey
here on February 16, at which time
plans for carrying out the million dol
lar Greater Wesleyan" campaign
will be acted upon.
Each county in the state in which
there is group of alumnae is eX-
pected to be represented at the con-
ference, which has been called by
Orville A. Park, of Macon, chairman
of the executive committee of the
Board of Trustees and national chair
man of the campaign organization.
The object of the campaign is to
provide funds for the new buildings
so urgently needed by the college to
care for its present and future needs.
Part of the money Will also be ap-
piled to permanent endowment. A
site of 152 acres admirably suited
for college campus has already been
acquired.
Wesleyan, although the oldest col
lege for women in the world, and
ranked as one of the leading insti-
tutions in its field, has for several
years been handicapped by the mad
equacy of it's present plant on col
lege hill. Three hundred applicants
for admission had to be turned away
this year because it was physically
impossible to care for them.

senator George
Looks After Inter
est Southern Ports


ne refusal of the recently organ
azed Emergency Fleet Corporation to
accord southern ports the same rates
as north Atlantic ports on export
shipments originating in the middle
west has occasioned vigorous protest
oy Senator Walter F. George to the
Emergency Fleet Corporation and the
shipping Board. It is pointed out
that this action by the Emergency
Fleet Corporation will nullify export
rall rates to southern ports on large
movements of European traffic from
central western points.
Senator George has to-day also
protested to the Interstate Commerce
commission against favorable consid-
Grafton Of the petition filed bv the
Boston Chamber of Commerce and
allied associations of Boston and Mas
sachusetts to intervent in the com
plant OF the south Atlantic ports.
The southern ports are seeking to
have import rail rates established
from those to the middle west not in
excess of those maintained from Bal
tlmore and Norfolk. 1t is believed
that great inroads would necessarily
be made into the volume of commerce
passing through south Atlantic and
Georgia ports. if the petition filed by
the Boston Chamber of Commerce
and Allied Associations of Boston
and Massachusetts, is granted.
Farming Loans
President Coolidge having given his
approval to the Norbeck Bill, which
will create the Federal Agricultural
Diversifications Committee" with
power to lend directly to farmers in
the wheat belt, sums not exceeding
1000 at low rate of interest and
for a long term, for the purchase of
live stock, including dairy and beef
cattle, hogs and poultry, Senator
George has given notice that he will
offer an amendment extending the
same benefits to farmers in the cot
ton belt. The Senator points out
that the one crop system prevails in
large measure in many portions of
the cotton belt and that the condi-
ton of the cotton farmer has been
aggravated by low yield and high cost
of production. The condition of the
Southern cotton farmer does not ma
terially differ from that of the wheat
grower in the West.
