is actuated by purely local and selfish
motives. 1t has been estimated that
it will cost even moro to straighten
and reconstruct the present section
of road through the Kennebunk
Woods than 1t will to build new
road, broad and straight, 50 az to
meet the requirements Of modern
traffic. In addition to this. II the
present crooked road is rebuilt while
the work is going on, which will
probably occupy the greater part of
the coming Summer, traffic will be
routed over detours. If new road is
built the old road can be used while
the work is going on without incon-
veniencing traffic in the least. This
in itself is a strong argument for it
and should have weight, even IL the
additional arguments a. not given
consideration.
This question of what shall be
done with this particular stretch of
highway can be definitely settled by
the Governor and Council. The most
of the people expect it will be settled
on it's merits, even though some
local political interests have views Of
their own with relation to it.

TAXPAYERS AND CONSUMERS

We had been under the illusion,
mat intelligent people everywhere
realize that the direct taxpayers are
not the only ones who contribute
the tax revenues. The person, who
rents q building, may not be a tax
payer but he surely helps the owner
OF the property to pay the taxes as
sessed against the latter. The dis
cussion In the State Grange indi-
Gates that not all intelligent people,
generally speaking do realize this
very important fact.
It is possible, however, that some
Of those favoring a resolution. that
only those who pay taxes should
vote appropriations, did SO not be-
cause they themselves were unaware
Of the important fact that the con-
sumers pay the taxes. but because
they fear the taxpayers do not
realize it, and so vote for appropria-
tons as otherwise they would not do.
- Well. It surely does seem at times
- though many people are obsessed
With the notion that they are cap
able Of taking 1t out Of the big fell
lows. who have every facility for
passing the tax along to the con-
sumer. Nevertheless. isn't it better
e endeavor to enlighten the mis-
guided rather than to deprive them
OF the privilege Of voting. respecting
the spending of the public's money?
That procedure would lead in a di-
rsction Of uncertain outcome.

NSe by David Cory

It was growing dark as Little Jack
Rabbit hoped down the Old Cow
Path to the dear Old Bramble Patch.
He was sad at heart as he. thought
oyerA all the disagreeable things he
had heard about Jimmy Jay. Dear,
oh dear" he sighed, "why should
such a beautiful bird have such
dreadful habits?" Yes, indeed. The
little. bunny's head was full Of mis-
eivings and sadness as he hoped up
the winding path through the bushes
to the kitchen door. Just as he jump
ed up on the porch Lady Love, his
pretty bunny mother, opened the
door. and from the warm kitchen
came the song Of the little canary
bird:
Home again, home again,
Through the sunshine or the rain;
Homes the dearest place to stay
After you have played all day."
ooh, mother" almost sobbed the
bunny boy. IT have learned so many
disagreeable things about Jimmy Jay
that I don't want to tell them to
you"
Never mind, little son." answered
Lady Love, tenderly clasping him to
her calico apron.
Forget the things that make you sad,
Remember only, what is glad.
Practice only kindly deeds
Find sweet flowers mid the weeds"
oh, will. will" answered the lit
tie rabbit when, all of sudden. the
weird call of Barney Owl came down
the wind. The next minute Old
Barney himself, in his odd-looking
gray and white mottled feather coat
peered from his hollow tree house
not far away. For second he stood
at the opening of the hollow in the
dead limb, his strange triangular
face and slim body, about a foot and
a half long, Lalf Rr the shadow.
Then with a solemn blink of his
great eye-discs. he noiselessly wing
ed his way over to the Little Red
Barn behind the lady bunny's tiny
white bungalow.
Hes hunting for MICE" whispered
the little rabbits mother. Now that
the ground is covered with snow, he
must look in the barns. Yes, there
he goes through the open door. II
any little mice are running about,
they'll be caught.

Politics and Road Building
portland Press Herald)

Maine has been remarkably free
from the interference of politics in
road building. 1t accounts for the
great progress in highway construc-
ton that has been made in this
State. In more than fifteen years in
which the State has been actively
engaged in highway construction to
satisfy modern requirements there
has been no scandal attached to the
manner in which the contracts for
millions of dollars have been let and
comparatively little political manipu-
lation with relation to the laying out
Of roads or determining the kind
which should be built.
Maine people ought to be very proud
Of this record. Other states have not
experienced as little difficulty from
this cause. 1t Is no doubt due to the
fact that all the people are inter-
.ested in the work that has been go
ing on and while there may have
been differences of opinion as to
policies, there has never been an is
sue raised which was solely inspired
by partisan motives.
But it now appears that someone is
trying to play politics in determining
how portion. at least, of the Port
.land-Kittery highway should be re-
constructed. This Is the States
main artery of travel. Over this
road comes ninety per cent of the
automobile tourists from without
the State. Our own people use it
more generally than they use any
other road beyond their own i'm
mediate environment. To have this
highway properly located and re-
constructed to meet modern require
ments is of fully as much interest
to the people living in Eastern
Maine as it is to those who live
nearer this road.
For distance of four and a
quarter miles West of the underpass
railroad bridge in Biddeford this
Portland Kittery road runs through
what are called the Kennebunk
Woods. 1t is winding, crooked way.
From a scenic standpoint this road
is delightful. In the early days of
automobile travel those who laid out
the highways had in view making
them as attractive as possible from a
scenic viewpoint. That was before
the advent of the motor truck and
the motor bus. When roads are
built today these big vehicles, slow
moving, cumbersome and heavy must
be reckoned with. The main idea
now in road construction is to make
them safe and capable of facilitating
traffic. This requires that sthey be
broad and straight, with dangerous
curves and distractions removed
wherever possible.
On this section of highway referred
to 1t was recommended to the Gov
ernor and Council that the old "Post
Road" be followed rather than the
crooked winding highway which was
first laid out. Probably nine out of
ten of the people who use this road
between Portland and ,Kittery favor
the building of the straight road
West of the Biddeford underpass
rather than the rebuilding of the
crooked way through the Kennebunls
Woods. But someone. having con-
siderable political infunece, seems to
have blocked this plan.
Whoever has done this. OF course,

wise Professor

professor at the University of
Cincinnati tells of a quick-witted in
structor of geology in the college that
he attended. 1t seems that the students
were asked to take walk and to pick
up various specimens of rocks and
bring them to the classroom for the
instructor to classify.
One smart young man picked UP q
piece of an old brick and laid it on the
table with the other specimens. When
the class had assembled the instruc-
tor picked up each specimen and told
what it was. When he came to the
brick he held it up and said: This is
piece of impertinence," cast it aside
and went on with the others.-Cincin-

MAINE GOSSIP
The Young Mother

I've watched her gather closely,
Her children to her breast
And speak to them of mostly
The things that are the best.
I've known her to be sharing
And kind to those about,
While within her sleeps a daring
Thought to go without.
I've laughed to see her scolding
Each tender, little heart,
AS If she We're but holding
The smiles that. needs must start.
I've heard her in the morning
Arise from out her bed
And kiss without warning,
Each curly, little head.
I've listened to her singing
At nighttime by. the fire,
And caught the echo ringing
OF notes that would inspire.
I've found in her expression
The marks of mother love,
And in her souls impression,
: The work of God above.

Grange
New York Worldl

And I'm getting 1t, too-but it's in
the neck.-Red Grange.
The papers said yesterday that a
close friend from his home town was
going to join Grange as an adviser.
II ever Teller needed friend. it is
Grange. For he is. bobbing about
helplessly in sea of greed and
cunning and idiotic publicity which
he Is altogether too inexperienced to
navigate. Grange will be lucky If he
escapes with his self-respect and
finds a chance to earn an honest
living. as,e
Ever since his brilliant perform
ance in the Pennsylvania game he
has been the victim of a kind of
conspiracy of get-rich- quick pro-
motors who did not care how far
they went in prostituting him to
their ends. They began by robbing
him of his integrity as sportsman
when they let him finish his season
at college though he was already
booked as a professional. They
went on to wreck him as an athlete
by scheduling him to play a series
OF games that no human frame can
stand. They then proceeded to make
him cheap by 'auctioning him off for
advertising purposes. They then
made him family but definitely
ridiculous by signing him for a fab
ulous movie contract.
