This Year, Nearly Twice as
Much as Before.
Special Dispatch to The Star.

UPPER MARLBORO, Md, June IA.
SO far as road building In Prince
Georges County is concerned. the gaso-
line tax law passed by the last Legisla-
ture has proved boon. This year the
county will have as its share of the
gasoline tax money $4,000 to spend
on its roads about twice as much as
1t usually has available The county
would have had approximately $3.50 900.
but 1t had to repay the last inStallment
OF S35 600 borrowed to complete that
part of the National Defense highway
from Washington to Annapolis lying
in Prince Georges County.
Upon recommendation of the COM
missioners. the State Roads Commits
sion has decided upon the following
road construction in the county this
year:
Half mile of concrete on the RAY
road. miles Of gravel on the Laurel
Bowie road. miles of gravel on the
Aquasco road. from Old Brandywine TO
Horsehead; our-fifthsof mile of
concrete on Chapel road, Seat Pleasant
district. and one-half mile Of concrete
on the River road from Kenilworth
toward Bladensburg. The balance will
be spent on the road from Silver Hill
TO Livingstone road. the amount of
construction depending upon the money
that Is available. 1t is expected that
between half mile and mile can
be built on this project. which when
completed will be miles long and will
connect the Livingstone road with the
Leonardtown pike.

SO horses from states entered and with added
attractions.
Bismarck doffs its hat to Mrs Bryan and con-
graduates her on her enterprise She has promoted.

credit to this city. 1t is remarkable demonstration
Of initiative and fine thing for the capital city.
Mrs. Bryan did not call meeting" She did not
say this town is dead and ought to do thus
and So"
She resolved in her mind that this is the best
city of its size in North Dakota. that it ideal
place for annual meeting. that it had all the
natural facilities and the added advantage Of location
So she invested largely Of her money and the
thing is done.
There is a lesson in her example for lot Of folks

Dear Nom:
Cousin Julia has just departed
and it was with feeling of regret
that l waved farewell to her. She
managed to get me out Of an un-
pleasant situation very neatly. and
have an idea that I'll need her
again soon. Alan and l have been
getting along too we'll. There is
something ominous in our felicity.
The fashion show ended Satur-
day night too-ended in q blaze Of
glory and a dinner dance at the
country club that would not have
to take a back seat for any Bohem-
ian revel have ever attended.
And the bellies of the occasion were
not what you called the 'best
people" of the conservative ranks,
but two chorus girls from the most
popular musical comedy here. They
simply moved down all before them.
Toward morning, l won a place
in the spotlight, doing my black
bottom dance. l think uplift Is
all wrong for me. ought to 60 in
seriously for dancing if I do for any
thing, for it is the only way where
l have ever made first base.
And right here and now, may
as we'll confide to you, mother dear,
that / am going to get job Of some
sort. I don't care 50 much what it
is, just so it gives me something to
do that amuses me and keeps me
out Of mischief.
It's perfectly silly to think that
a little apartment such as we have,
with a good maid, requires any at
tention from me. It doesn't. And
l cant bear to stay at home alone.
Also, l hate the things women do
to amuse themselves during the day.
l get so sick of bridge, lunches and
parties where there are just women.
After a week of women's society,
I'm just in the mood I was when
flirted with Pede-just desperate for
little honest excitement. And Of
course, that inevitably brings
trouble into the home.
There's absolutely no reason why
I shouldn't have something to do %

HOW TO USE MELONS

In the summer season it is q good
plan to cut down on the heavy foods
and use the more watery fruits and
vegetables. These are best when
used by themselves and not in COM
bination will. the hearty foods Of
high caloric value.
Melons may be used freely dur
ing their season, if this rule is OBJ
served. Although classed as a veg
etable, they should be used as you
would any of the acid fruits. All
melons are of the gourd family and
contain about ninety per cent of wa
ter. the rest being composed Of su.
gar and the organic minerals and
vitamins.
The casaba, which natures in the
late summer, is the melon which
keeps the longest without spelling.
It can be kept for as long as two
months after gathering. This mel
on is the largest, outside of the
watermelon, often measuring seven
or eight inches in diameter, and
weighing seven pounds or more.
The early melons, generally
perishable and should only be used
when ripe. If not properly matured
they are tasteless, and if over-ripe
will cause severe digestive disturb
ances and poisoning. They must be
handled very carefully to avoid
bruising, and the housewife should
use the greatest care in selecting
those not already bruised, and with
a good odor.
They are best chilled in a refri-
gerator, but if cracked ice is relied
upon to cool them, It should not be
placed inside Of the open melon,
but the melon should be packed in
side the cracked ice and opened and
cleaned when ready to serve. This
method will preserve the naturally
delicate flavor, and not dilute the
juice with ice water. No seasoning
should be used, with the possible ex.
ception of a little salt. If the mel.
on is fit to eat, its flavor cannot be
improved even by salt. II not prop.
erly matured and ripened, it should
not be used under any circum.
stances.
The Rocky Ford melon is one Of
the best varieties and one which car
be depended upon TO be of a super.
Tor flavor. However, market
styles are constantly changing, as
the crossing Of varieties is very
easy, and has worked many trans.
formations from the original types
The watermelon is a native Of
Africa, SO the craving of the coloret
people for this melon seems quit.
natural. The southern part of tn.
United States raises by far the larg
est crop for commercial purposes.

melon at every opportunity, ant
even the carnivorous animals, sucl
as the lion and the dog, will devoul
