Carries Traffic

The first highway loop TO be COM
Tletsd under Cameron county's
s6,o0o.o00 feeder road program, was
formally opened Thursday from San
BenitO through Rio Hondo to Har-
lingen.

eellent pavement they have pro-
vided."
The entire highway is Is feet wide
with the exception Of about 300 feet
IN the center of Rio Hondo where X
was videned to the width Of the
street. Rio Hondc is one os the old
sr settled sections Of the county

sort center. Plans for extensive de-
velopment Of the farming section
adjacent and the erection of ad-
ditional buildings in the town are
expected to m~ateriRlize following
the completion of the highway.
Most Of the new highway loor

beautiful drives in the Valley.

BY Dodds & Wedegartner. This high
way. approximately 6 miles in
length. will be opened for traffic In
about three weeks.

CHE WHY of
SUPERSTITIONS
BY H. IRVING KING
THE TURNED STONE

10 OUT in the spring and turn up
" a brick or a stone on the ground
and look under it at the earth. The
color of the earth exposed will be the
color of the hair of your future hus-
band. This is project" for girls
and is apparently a more common SUI
perstitions in the southern states than
in the northern, though it may be
met with in widely separated locali-
ties 1t is an especial favorite with
the Maryland maidens, according to
the Journal of the American Folk
Lore Society. This superstition is APP
parently akin to that of the lovers
hair found in the shoe of the inquiring
maiden when she hears the first call
of the bird which is the harbinger of
spring.
It is from the Northern races evil
IDENTIFY, that we inherit the superstition
of the turned stone; for it and similar
folklore ideas are found mostly, if not
entirely, in the northern part Of Eu-
rope. The Morse mythology was an
overshadOwing one for that part of
the world and in the British isles and
in northern Germany its effect has re-
manned solidly impressed upon Brit
ish and Teutonic folklore. The SUI
perstition in question seems to be
survival of the idea contained In the
story of Balder the Beautiful-that
shining Morse god supposed by some
authorities to have represented the
spirit of vegetation which passes part
of the year In the realm Of the under
world and in spring teammates the
earth.
Balder himself will not come back
until after Ragnarock, the Twilight
of the Gods" but if the speculations
Of James Frazer are correct, it would
appear as if his death insured the an
nual return of vegetation. According
to one version Balder was the son of
Odin and the goddess Freya. The lat
ter was the goddess of love. Long CEN
turtles before Tennyson wrote of "a
young mans fancy" love and the
springtime were conceived as being
"affinities" The association of ideas
is clear. In the season of love we turn
the stone and the son of the goddess
of love from the Underworld sends the
love token.

A Conservative
Wish
BY DOUGLAS MALLOCH

NEW YEARS! OF course it's the
~ regular thing
To wish you full many a blessing.
I doi-for I hope that the New Year
Will bring
You pleasure beyond all expressing.
And yet If 1t shouldn't, as sometimes
occurs,
Good men and good women, good
ladies and sirs,
I hope that at least it will bring you
"a mind
To keep you contented, whatever you
find.
New Years! Well, many will wish
you a heap;
I join In their wishes, and gladly.
But hope that at least what you
have you can keep,
And that won't be doing so badly.
It's easy to wish and it's easy to
want,
But some things you can have and
some things you can't,
man
Contented at least with the things
that they can.
New Year'sl My wishes may seem
rather tame,
Conservative, solemn and sober;
And yet you will maybe remember the
same
Along in July or October.
Though maybe 1 may not have wished
you a feast
You know what l wished that meant
it at least,
May say that really was kinder to
you
Than people who wished what could
never come true.
