SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, March 13.-Lieutenant Governor Patterson is scheduled for a conference to- day with Secretary of Interior Har- old L. Ickes in an attempt to har- monize all Democratic factions in the state favoring President Roo- sevelt for a third term. The Cab- inet member flew here today from Washington to inspect various re- clamation projects.
 One slate of delegates on the May ' primary ballot will be of ficially pledged to Gov. c. L. Olson, but actually for President Roose- welt.
 Opponents of Olson, who still sup port the President, have threatened to file a rival slate.
 A third slate of delegates on the ballot will be pledged to Vice. President Garner.
 Patterson fears that two RooSe- welt states in the primary election ballot might result in Garner car- rying the state, as he did in 1882

QueStion-Painted steel case

heve it is due to rough surface which

may have been a very slow drying

will cause the windows to stick. To

ROMANTIC ROAD
TO MANDALAY
Riverside Press)

Burma road continues to have roman
tic appeal, as those thousands of Ameri-
can trucks coming up from Mandalay
continue their long, slow crawl through
the barren mountains, bringing their
precious freight to the Chinese army. 1t
gives our people an illusion of being
themselves at the back of beyond, help
ing in a picturesque crusade to save a
friendly nation.
There is something there, too, besides
romance 1t is a vast and continuous
road-building job, because the dirt high
way is always being washed out or blown
up and an army of coolies is always at
work making repairs.
What is needed is some modern Amer
lean road-building machinery, with Am
erican engineers in charge busted first
with keeping the road open and then
with the task of laying a durable foun-
dation, surfacing it and improving the
culverts and bridges.
The ancient Romans, some of whose
trunk roads still remain in England,
were up to such jobs, but they worked
slowly, cutting and fitting big stone
blocks for a roadbed.
American engineers would move their
huge machines along pouring continuous
layers of concrete. And great sight it
would be for the spirit of old Marco Polo
who once hoofed it from Italy to China
along that road.
Kipling's "On the Road to Mandalay"
is about all many of us know of the Bur
ma road His thrilling description of
this treacherous highway gives one an
idea of what the Chinese are up against
in keeping it open for travel.

Editorials and Comment
SUNDAY NOVEMBER 8, 1910
EIGHTY THOUSAND
MODEL HUSBANDS
(Christian Science Monitor)

(Christian Science Monitor)
A good plan not only may serve its
own good purpose but produce valuable
by-products besides. Take the draft OF
American manhood for military service
for example. What previous single year
of American history produced SOo,OOo
prospective husbands who knew how TO
make bed? Veteran husbands may
think they know how, though 1t Is hard
to get them to prove 1t.
Even before the first contingent of
American recruits goes into training, the
young men of America are receiving
hints on how to make a bed so that 1t
can be slept in. Basic things" like keep
ing the center fold of the sheet in the
middle of the bed, working from the foot
toward the head of the bed and tuck
ing in the bottom before attempting to
camouflage it with the upper one-these
are points that an expert in bed-making
is now stressing. There is also the ques-
ton of the fold-back at the top of the
sheet that rests against the chin and the
problem of the pillow.
It does seem a little unnecessary, how
ever. to warn the men against letting
the pillow become pancake; in fact,
this sounds like the "spoofing" that init
lated people always wittily indulge in
when instructing the neophyte. And one
bit of advice will be decidedly unwel-
come to most men of our ACQUAINTANCE.
This is that if one wakes up in the middle
of the night with all the bed clothes in
a tangle one should Immediately get up
and make the bed over. No, there are
things worse than sleeping on the sofa
and this is one of them.
