mary investigation Of the right Of
way question for proposed widening
OF the present highway between Har-
Iingen and San Benito to 4 feet, OF
to 40 or so feet for a "Main Street
between these cities reveals that no
trouble will be experienced in Sc
curing this additional right Of way.
it was announced here today.
Members Of the highway depart
ment of the state who were here re-
Gently stated that before the present
road il widened indications are that
additional right Of way viii be re.
quired. The present right of way
is GO feet. the same as most Of the
other rights OF way along the high
way Of the Valley.
Practically all Of the property
owners between San Benito and the
Arroyo Colorado are willing to donate
right Of way from their property for
the benefits that would accrue from
the widening OF this street, 1t was an
nounced. II is expected that prac-
tically NJ money will be required for
this widening. resulting in saving OF
the money appropriated by the coun-
ty, or precincts in it, and by the
state for the actual widening of
the highway.
Replying to the statement By
County Judge Oscar c. Dancy, who il
taking an active interest In having
u parallel highway built instead Of
widening the present highway, that
Widening the present highway
will solve the traffic problem only
temporarily, and the parallel road
will ~ventrally have to be built" A
member Of the San Benito road com
mittee stated that building a paral.
lei highway BY the same token will
solve the problem only temporarily
and eventually the present road will
have to be widened. We do not want
to build another highway first, and
forget about the present one. We
want 20 widen ii into a really first
class highway or street, and then
building another highway and later
widen it."
Harlingen Is to have a committee
nc Austin 20 appear before the state
highway commission in the interest
Of the parallel road, it is under
stood.

Wrong both times, Mary.
Il is not to be wondered at that
so many young people find IL hard
to settle TO their best job, when
there are oil sorts Of influences pull
ing them this way and that. So many
girls like yourself, who have unusual

make good at it.
In your case, however, there is
every indication that you can do
something different.
I do not blame you for not want

and use a language. but you are not
