blocks and cylinders are cast, and
cured the same as the pavement.
These are tested from day to day,
and the pavement is not opened
until the samples show the requis-
tie strength. AS a final check, cor
es are cut from the finished pave
ment and tested for strength and
thickness.
Increased use of road oils and
tar has necessitated a large num-
Der of tests. Field inspection of the
subgrade with laboratory tests of
the subgrade with laboratory tests
of the subsoil are first made to
determine the correct grade of
bituminous material to use. All
materials are then tested before
being applied.
In 1880 there were 1869 samples
of cement tested, 365 samples of
gravel pebbles, 80 samples of
crushed rock, 800 samples of sand,
1914 concrete cylinders and 729
cores. Bituminous samples tested
included &c of asphalt, 500 Of road
oil and 264 of tar. Tests also in
cluded many other materials, such
as bridge steel, concrete and metal
culverts. calcium chloride, snow
fence, guard rail cable and posts,
paint, gasoline, lubricating oil and
grease.
Many samples require several
tests. Each sample of cement re-
quires five, sand six, paint eight,
and so on. In 1880 the 8,806 samp-
les involved a total of $3.50 indi-
vidual tests. In 1929, with smaller
paving and bituminous program,
there were 5.055 samples and TO-

ganization because it would mean
direct north and south route.
This road, however, must be paved
because of the soft condition of
the present road. Mr.. Babcock be-
lieves that this road need be paved
in order to hold traffic over it.
An Ashby representative, Mr..
Hauge, showed the open minded
ness of the people along the ma
tional park route by stating that
he believed that the Elbow Lake
route should be paved, and poss-
IDLY be paved first, but he also
thought that the cutoff should be
paved because it is 10 miles short
er, because it goes thru on the
most scenic sections in the state
and past some very desirable farm
sites. He raised the question of
whether this cutoff could not be
made a part of the trunk highway
association and challenged the as
ISOLATION with the question-"If
they can have paved roads thru
the northern part of the state
where little taxes are paid, why
shouldn't we have them thru our
territory where taxes are heavy?"
During the open discussion the
Evansville representative express
ed the opinion that the cost of
paving the cutoff would be much
less than that of paving the other
hn ie, ~,
from Brandon to Elbow Lake it
means all new construction be-
tween these two points. DR.. Cow
ing informed the organization that
No. 8 is permanent construction
from Evansville to the county line
and any move to change the course
of the road from this might poss-
IDLY be stopped by an injunction.
Mr.. Satire, of Evansville asked
the adviseability of forming a sep
arate association of those towns
from Evansville to Fergus via the
cutoff but the majority of senti-
ment was not in favor of this.
DR.. Volker then proposed the
sending of a delegation made up
of representatives from Clay,
Grant, Stearns, Ottertail and
Douglas counties to request their
legislators to be favorable to the
bond issue and also for the delega-
ton to meet with Mr.. Babcock re-
garding future pavings thru this
territory. This was carried and the
following delegation selected:
Stearns County, Asa M. Wallace
(Chairman); Clay county, J. H.
Eldridge and M. McGrath; Grant
county, c. J. Stone; Ottertail
county, J. Webb and S. M. Skrove;
Douglas County, E. r. Ruggles,
Osakis; DR.. J. J. Volker, Alexan-
dria and K. o. Satire, Evansville.
The delegation got in touch with
Mr.. Babcock Immediately and the
meeting with him was set for Fri
day afternoon at o'clock.
In order that the doings of the
association could be better circu-
lated three key men were selected
to take care of and receive cor
respondence, they were: v. E.
Johnson, of Melby; V. E. Hauge, of
Ashby; and S. M. Skrove of Dali
ton.
Before adjourning Mr.. Wallace
brought up the question of public
ity for all the towns on this route
which would be played in book

tributed among tourist and in
formation bureaus. It was decided
that the individual commercial or
CARNATIONS of the various towns
could best decide on that as indi-
vidual units.
A check up on the roll call
found the following towns had re-
representatives. at this meeting Of
the association: Evansville, Dali
ton, Ashby, Sank Centre, Osakis,
Alexandria, GAINESVILLE and Fer

Before Mr.. Babcock was COM
municated with a resolution was
passed unanimously indorsing the
proposed highway bond issue ask
ed for by Commissioner Babcock.

Long Prairie Defeats HI. S. Quint

gave the local fans a fine demon
stration of basketball teamwork at
the Junior High School Auditorium
Friday evening when they trimmed
the Main Street quint by the Jug
handled score of 81 to II.
Reichert opened the evenings
festivities by scoring a beautiful
field goal on the third play of the
game. This score was a fore run
ner of the first half when the To-
Gals were smothered, the period
ending with 20 to score.
In the second half the visitors let
up a trifle the Sank Centre quint
scoring 13 and holding their OPP
ponents to II, the finals being Long
Prairie 81, Sank Centre II.
The Long Prairie boys are the
class of the teams the writer has
seen on the Sank Centre floor this
year. They have waded through
all opposition having won at this
writing 10 of IL games played.
They are exceedingly rangy, tall
er even than the Melrose squad.
They have speed and a fine know
ledge of the game and are good
sportsmen. The smaller Sank Cen
ire forwards were completely COW
cred at all stages of the game.
Referee Kasch, of st. Cloud, call
ed 'em close. Sank Centre made
a dozen personal fowls, Pat Du-
Bots being the only man on the To-
cal quint to escape being penalized.
BY the way, this young man is a

Asks Home Team Support

During the past few months the
readers of the Sank Centre Herald
have been delightfully."- entertained
and amused by some very amusing
articles written by, as the paper
states, Wilfred Hetzel.
We do not intend to take a per-
sonal slam at the former writer but
we would like to make a few sug.
gestions.
If he must write about .Melrose
and boast about their team let him
confine his opinions to the Melrose
Beacon as that is the local paper
of Melrose.
The Herald" is a Sank Centre
paper and all athletic activities that
go in that paper concern Sank
Centre, not Melrose.
Perhaps the readers of the "Her-
ald," the citizens of S. G.. and the
boosters of our basket ball team
wonder why our team isn't a scor-
ing, not winning, team.
There is only one answer to that
question.
The team does not get the sup
port of every one.
If they would be encouraged in
the paper instead of slammed per-
haps they would have more spirit.
Previous to this year the "Her-
aid" has written some wonderful
articles about our team. Not once
did they slam them but always en-
couraged them into doing better.
One can hardly blame the boys
for not wanting to work hard for
no matter what they do, good or
bad, they are slammed.
So, hereafter, we would appre-
ciate it very much if Wilfred Het-
Eel will write for us and not against
us.-High School Girls.

The military order was enforced but it was
distinctly unpopular, and wherever soldiers and
determined officials were lacking, the people fell
back on their old habits.
Even in Marking itself the governments order
is unpopular. Last year President Chang Kali
shek made personal round Of the state Offices
to see whether the officials themselves were
obeying the edict to ignore the Chinese New
Year festivities.
The police in Marking had been ordered TO
check any preparations for celebrating the old
holiday, but on the dawn of the Chinese new
Year, even the chief of police took a holiday
and only one-fifth of the employees of the de-
partment appeared ready for work.
When he finished his survey, the general
issimO Immediately summoned the chief of po-
lice and dismissed him, at the same time APP
pointing commandment of the local gendarmes
to succeed him. 1t is significant that the new
appOintee Immediately asked for five days leave
Of absence before assuming his poSt-the
FIVE days coinciding with the traditional period
devoted to the celebration of the old holiday.
AS a preliminary to enforcing the regulations
this year, the government changed the dates of
the temple fairs
The gods, who for centuries had accustomed
themselves to receiving homage on the first and
fifteenth Of the ancient Chinese months, were
summary directed to change their appetites
and consume incense offerings on the first and
fifteenth Of the solar calendars.
