ARIZONA SWEEPS HIGHWAYS TO
SAVE TIRES FOR MOTORISTS

expense OF tires. the Arizona
Hig hway Department with it's
magnet truck has cleared 801
miles of Arizona roads of II 298
pounds metal calculated to
cause untold misery and hard
work through punctures- during
a period of 10 months, or from
July l, 1929, to May /, 1880.
The average amount of metal
cleared from the highways in
the ten months period is SO
pounds per mile. The metal
picked up by the magnet runs
from roofing nails to railroad
spikes, including such inciden
tails as table knives and forks,
screw drivers. nuts, bolts and
screws and other tire destroyers.
Of these, probably the roofing
nails are the greatest vandals.
If the front tire of a car goes
over them without trouble it sets
them on their beads so that their
heads are imbedded in q rear
tire.
1t is almost impossible to es
innate the value OF the depart
ment's magnet truck to the mo
torist. Countless letters. seek
ing information as to Arizona's
method of clearing the highways
of tire destroying metal, have
been received by the department
from various state and county
officials, and at least one other
state has adopted a method simi
lar to this state.
Paved roads have been omi t
ed from the work of the magnet.
The magnet truck was design
ed and built in the Phoenix
shops under the supervision of

The magnets are attached to
the rear of the truck, normally
about 5 inches from the ground,
and can be raised and lowered
at will. They are round and
bell shaped, two feet in diameter
and combined cover a sweep Of
about six feet of roadway.

Heard over the Radio

Eyangelne Adams was very inter esting speaking over WEAF the other evening.
 She had a great deal to say on the subject of marriage. If man and a woman are born under the same signs of zodiac, they naturally have the same characteristics and as their feel ing for each other is really fraternal it is not wise for them to marry; al though sometimes, other things will conteract this influence to a slight ex- tent. In any case those about to be married, those wanting to be married, or even those already married should send for a solar Horoscope to enable them to choose wisely. or if already married show them how to overcome the many obstacles that stand in the way of marital happiness. In this connection she told an amusing incl dent of a well known man who came to her for advice. He was engaged to one woman and at the same time two others were suing him for breach of promise.
 Tn speaking of financial matters she was quite cheerful She said the worst of the business depression is over and better times are at hand; but 1t was unfortunate September 7th, 1880 was a Sunday. as that was a day when all business dealings would be successful

Patricia Putnam's Own Column. ...
Mary L.eui.e Marc.


 When in 1913 Miss Howe and Miss Marot came to Thompson, and start ed their school, no one realized it would soon become such an import ant institution and that the Marot Junior College would some day be an ornament to the little hilltop town.
 Miss Howe, unfortunately. lived in Thompson only few short years, and saw but the beginning of the school that bears her name with that of Miss Marot. In her day the Junior College was practically unknown. at least in the east, so 1t is Miss Marot alone who Is responsible for the Mar ot Junior College. which is perhaps the greatest achievement of her life.
 Mary Louise Marot is a born edu- cator. It is as natural for her to teach as it is for her to breath.
 She graduated with honors from Wellesley, then took a post graduate course at the University of Chicago, the university which has given 70 many valuable men and women t0 the world. It was there that Miss Marot made her Phi Beta Kappa.
 After leaving college she was head of the English Department at El- mira College. later she taught five years at Pennington, where she met Miss Howe
 Together these two splendid women went to Dayton, Miss Marcus native town. and opened d girls school. which they kept for eight years.
 At that time parents in the middle west had one desire, to have their daughters educated in New England. the home of culture and polish.
 Realizing the time had come to move eastward they came to New England, Miss Howe coming first Co look over the situation. and select a suitable place for a Girls Preparatory School. Thompson was finally decided upon and the John W. Doane place acquired.
 Miss Marot joined her associate and in the autumn of 1913 the school was opened with almost as many teachers as scholars. From that day the school has grown steadily. After Miss Howe's death, Miss Marot has carried on alone.
 The idea of the Junior College was a happy one. It has prospered from the first. Before all else Miss Marot
 
 the Junior College idea in New Eng land. but she has the satisfaction of being the head of one of the few Ju- nior Colleges of the first class. east of the Alleghanies Girls who graduate from the Marot Junior College enter all the large colleges without exams and with full credits.
 When the Junior College was new idea Miss Marot travelled over the country talking on the subject to all who were interested in the advanced education of girls.
 No women ever gave her whole soul to her work more absolutely than Miss Marot. Winter and summer she is en- gagged in doing all things possible for the advancement of her school and the mental, physical and spiritual growth of the girls committed to her care. If she had accomplished nothing else, she would have been known for the establishment of the Junior College in the east

Fashion Notes

The latest from Paris on the sub ject of headgear tells of a charming little beret sponsored by Agnes. 1t is like a small pancake. just covers the back of the head. very chic and alluring when worn by a young girl It is made of chenille, follows the line of the hair in front, and accents the growing hair in the back.
 The new silk stockings have a dull finish, as do the shoes to be worn with them.
 The knee length is the proper front length for evening wraps. with a dip to enable length in the back.
 Tiny straps are all that is neees- sary and chic to hold a low de'eollet- age in place. In buying stockings one must know the names of the new shades. The nutty chocolate brown that Is so fashionable Is called sable" There is also a charming light shade called "opal" to wear with evening gowns. Speaking of stockings lisle is very desirable in both lace woven and the more closely knit. No costume Is complete without it's bag, the new ones are fairly large and flat. black is very smart both in satin and suede.
 That old favorite black satin. which for a while was considered out of date. has returned to favor and will be most popular for daytime dresses.
 That helpful and agreeable function the bridal shower" is no longer con- sidered smart. in fact it has always been frowned upon by the ultra fasfi- ionable.

thought, but it is only the logical
 outgrowth indeed. of the fun
 damental concept of our govern ment-that t should guarantee to
 every man the right to Life. Lib erty and the Pursuit of Happi-
 ness There is no happiness in the bebt poverty and want that follows in the wake of unemploy-
 ment.
 Our government has willingly
 stepped in to aid commerce. trade and transportation. It has been big enough to lend billions to foreign nations. It is big enough to handle the mammoth postal system. It has esta ablished Fed eral Farm Board to aid agricul- ture. It has enforced and ,reated the Interstate Commerce Commis- sion in the interest and stabliza- tion of the nations traffic. We have created Federal Reserve Bank to insure the nations bank ing industry, and we have Fed era Trade Commission to protect all business from unfair conditions and unjust competition.
 All of the above mentioned agencies are designed to help in dustry. No agency is yet set up
 to insure the right to jobs of those upon whom prosperity and security in the last analysis rest-the work ingmen and working women of the United States.
