The petals of a climbing rose
sprawled along; fence bordering the

tree blossoming beside che highway, a
prophetic evidence of the improve

sides to become an important by
product of road building a few years

Workmen, foremen, surveyors and
engineers were working with a will to
make the old pike serviceable for the
thousands of motor cars being pro-
duced by the manufacturing plants
and driven first by goggle-eyed mo-
florists clothed in long linen busters.
Mile after mile of the Old National
Pike was hard-surfaced to meet the
new standards by the State highway
departments with the aid of funds
appropriated from the Federal treas
ury. In 1925, the restored pike was
given the designation of United States
Route 40 and standard numbered
shield markers and danger and eau
ton signs were erected in each state
to guide the cross-country motorist
along the way.

lily on a Saturday afternoon outing.

Pretty dirty coming up from Hawaii said MT. Strout, who explained par ticularly that he was not a captain. "So if you please, don't" he said.
 Their first voyage took them all over the south seas, to South Af- rica. This last, away from Cape Hat teras January 2, they visited Porto Rico, Jamaica, Panama, Cocos island Hawaii, Kodiak, Seward.
